Want my email to "pop up" so that i am notified

Hello there
Am just wondering if I can get my new mail to pop up and notify me together with a noise - at the moment I have to press "get mail" and its getting on my nerves!
Any help would be appreciated
From a very first time user of Mac!

Mail preferences:
General - Set a New Mail sound and configure the Dock unread count drop down menu. Set the Check for new mail drop down menu to automatically check for new mail periodically.

  • How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses  "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear.  Help please!

    How do I delete stored email addresses in my iphone? When sending photos, I don't want to have certain email addresses  "popping up" from the internal memory, I've deleted my entire "Contact" list but they still appear.  Help please!

    As with the Mail app on a Mac, the iPhone's Mail app stores all email recipients in a list of previous recipients which is separate from the address book or contacts. The email address autofill feature when addressing an message pulls from Contacts and from the list of previous recipients.
    Different from the Mail app on a Mac, there is no access to the list of previous recipients with iOS on an iPhone, iPod Touch, or iPad to remove a previous recipient from the list, or to add a previous recipient to the address book or contacts that is not already entered - not at the present time anyway.
    The only way to purge the list of previous recipients at the present time is by restoring your iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, which will start being re-populated again with every sent message.

  • Two apple I.D., one with the .me email address I want, how can I delete it so that I can use that .me address on my other account?

    I have two apple I.D., one with the .me email address I want, how can I delete it so that I can use that .me address on my other account
    Or is it possible to transfer the purchases (apps) to my new .me account so that I can re-download them in the future without having to switch accounts?

    You can't do this, and you can't transfer purchases between accounts. There is no conflict about using one ID for iTunes, iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match (the ID you've been using for iTunes) and using the other ID for iCloud.

  • When I tap the mail icon on my iPhone 4s, the menu of email servers pops up.  I already have a me acct that I check all the time, no problem.  So I choose iCloud, sign in and it tells me that I already have an acct-.so why can't I get to my emails then?

  • I have Nuance PDF Converter 7.2 and after I scan a document and want to email it, I get an error message that says the scan cannot be attached to an email.

    I want to be clear: I can scan the document with Nuance PDF Converter 7.2, but after the scan, I want to email the scan to someone.
    When I click on the word "email" on the left side of the Nuance screen, I get a failure message. For a couple of years this process worked without a problem. I was told by Nuance Support that the problem was in the email software. Is there something on a drop
    down menu that I can click on the resolve the problem? Thanks.

    The problem could be that your computer doesn't have Thunderbird identified as the default e-mail program, so the first step is:
    Thunderbird: Menu bar: Tools: Options: Advanced Tab: System Integration:
    Press the "Check Now..." button.
    In the resulting "System Integration" window, make sure that "E-Mail" is check-marked, and "Always perform this check when starting Thunderbird" is checked. Then click the "Set as Default" button.
    If you have Windows 8 or 8.1, then there is also another step:<br>
    Windows Control Panel: Programs: Default Programs: Set your default programs.<br>
    Find "Thunderbird" on the left side, and click to select it.<br>
    On the right side, click "Set this program as default".<br>
    Then reboot the computer.<br>
    If the problem still exists, then do a clean install of Thunderbird:
    Certain Thunderbird problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Thunderbird's program files and then reinstall Thunderbird. Please follow these steps:
    #Download the latest version of Thunderbird from http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download is complete, close all Thunderbird windows (Click Exit/Quit from the menu button on the right).
    #Delete the Thunderbird installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #** C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #** C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Thunderbird from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Thunderbird with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Thunderbird on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/ Thunderbird Download Page], simply remove the folder ''thunderbird'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Thunderbird:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to open Thunderbird after clicking the Finish button.
    <b>WARNING:</b> Do not run Thunderbird's uninstaller or use a third party remover as part of this process, because that could permanently delete your Thunderbird data, including but not limited to, extensions, emails, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u>
    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • Is there a way to turn on auto complete for text that has to be entered repeatedly? I don't want to use a pop up list.

  • I have an editable pdf made in Acrobat. Viewing it Adobe Reader Mobile (Android) and I can fill it fine. I want to be able to fill the form but it keeps autosaving. I just want to email the form and then it goes back to an unfilled form. How do i do that?

    Currently, Adobe Reader for Android does not provide an option to disable auto-save.
    In the Reader home screen (where your files are displayed), you can make a copy of the original PDF document, open the copy (instead of opening the original document), make changes to the copy.  Once you email the copy, you can delete it.
    For more information, please see Help > How To... > Copy, edit, delete, manage.
    Although it is not the most convenient way to accomplish the task, that's the only feasible workaround that is available in Adobe Reader for Android right now.

  • Email addresses popping down that I have not stored in my address book. How do I delete them?

    When I start writing a letter on a new email, a pop down menu with addresses show some "contacts" or email addresses that I have not stored or used.
    How can I get rid of them? This is on the mail app. that comes with the iPad.
    Any input anyone? Thanks.

    Something really strange is going on here.  First, I went to do the same comparison that you did.  In my case, I intended to compare Mail on my original iPad with Mail on my Mac.  I was completely unable to locate the "Previous Recipients" list on the iPad.  Where is it?
    I did attempt to do a lesser comparison by creating a message on the iPad and putting "a" in the "To" field.  Up popped several dozen recipients that begin with the letter "a."  I was unable to match the listing up with the listing in the Mac on a one-for-one basis (because the sorting is different) but I did locate several addresses in the iPad that are unquestionably not in the Mac.  HOWEVER, the real confusing part is that I know for a fact that I have not sent any emails to these individuals for over five years (and, obviously, I could not have used the iPad)!  One is a former manager at a company that I worked for ten years ago.  Another is the contact at the medical insurance company for the same employer.
    The items in the Mac listing were equally weird.  Many, of course, were legit but there were several that I know for a fact that I had absolutely never sent any messages to these recipients.  One that stood out is an address with the name "Bladder Cancer Lawyer" and it was allegedly "last used" several weeks ago.  A message to such an individual is not something that I'm likely to forget (especially rather quickly).
    Right now, I am thoroughly confused.  Just for giggles, I'm going to delete the entire list on the Mac and see what happens.  Actually, I'm going to stall for a while just in case you come up with another thought.

  • How do I delete old email addresses from the pop up list that comes up when I put a letter into the "To" box. These addresses are not in my address book.

    How do I delete old email addresses from the pop-up list that comes up when I put a letter into the "To" box? They are not in my Address Book.  Wrong addresses get in the way and I sometimes select the wrong one.

    Edit the list the comes up when you go to the Window menu and select "Previous Recipients".

    This issue was resolved! I didnt think about restoring my computer to factory settings but I did and now my computer works like brand new. basically, just back up your files and do the following:

    My problem is trying to restore my iphone 4s. The icloud password is from a defunct email account through an ISP that I no longer use. I have upgraded to an iphone5s . I want to give the iphone4s to a special needs child that can make good use of it.I am at the point of despair. I can prove where I got the 4s etc. which seems to be a requirement from postings on forums. IT IS BREAKING THIS KIDS HEART AND BREAKING MINE. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP !!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.
