We use the Apple mail server to get e-mails from our gmail and comcast mail accounts. Recently we have been getting spam that claims to be sent to a gmail address, but when I check that address directly, there is no such e-mail, either in the inbox or in the spam folder. Is it possible to bypass the gmail account and send directly to the Apple mail server, spoofing the gmail address?
Maybe some info here for you about spoofing. (and much additional info)

I'm downloading adobe software via my dad's account and when it's done loading, it has a message where it says it sent a verification email to my email address, but when I check it shows that it hasn't been set. I keep clicking the resend email and it claims it does but it still hasn't sent the email to my address. How do I fix this?
It is probabl,y sending the email to your Dad's email address if you are using his account.

when i sign into icloud, a box appears asking me to verify the information in my email, but when i check my email inbox there is no email there. so how do i get onto icloud?
I need to deactive icloud to be able to repair my phone as it is damaged. however when signing into icloud it appears with a box asking me to verify the information in my email. When loging into my email inbox, there is no message there from icloud to verify. so how do I get onto icloud or how else can I deactivate it without using my device?Hi ryball89,
Happy Holidays! If you are having issues with the verification email for your iCloud/Apple ID, follow the steps below:
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
If you didn't receive your verification or reset email
Not sure where that email was sent? Here are some tips to help you find it.
When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
Search for the email
We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
Make sure you're checking the correct email account
If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account.
If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
Resend the email
To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
Make sure that you're getting email
If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address.
Contact us
Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.
Cheers,

having problem buying online.need your help since it's my first time here.apple is asking for my billing address but when i enter my address here in qatar,it's saying i should enter a valid zip code within the u.s.does it mean i can't buy online even if it wil be shipped within u.s. only?
To buy in for delivery in Qatar, you should be starting from the Apple Qatar site:
http://www.apple.com/qa/
Do you have an Apple-ID? if you do, then you should not have to enter your Address again, and may be able to sidestep the US Zip Code issue. -
I have an Iphone 4 using ios 4.2.6 and need to upgrade to at least ios 4.3 or better yet ios 5. I have never received any update notices. I understand upgrades are through Itunes but when I go to Itunes downloads there is nothing there. Help!
Thanks, I tried this and it didn't work. I have a windows xp computer and connected the iphone to it. When I click on the iphone link that comes up under my computer i only get my iphone photos. No other options come up.

I cannot receive a verification email from icloud on my comcast email account. I have tried looking in spam, going to appleid and asking to resend the verification email many times, and I get nothing. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Most likely it is blocked on server level, you need to go to account settings and unblock everything that has word apple in it. Also just to make sure, verify that you didn't misspell your e-mail address.

Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.
In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever. -
Recently i have been getting the color wheel a lot and it is screwing with my happiness. Any thoughts on how to clean the computer up so this stops?
Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|Previous Sh' | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. -
This is driving me nuts. I need to "rent" some flicks for a trip, but my iPad (64GB) tells me I have insufficient memory. Checking under Settings/General/Usage, I find 3GB free. I hook it up to my computer (iTunes) and clear out pretty much everything (audio, video, extra apps, etc) and iTunes then tells me I have 30GB available. Yes, I hit apply and the darn thing synches just fine. Disconnect and look back at the iPad, and viola - only 3GB available. ARRRRGGGHHHH!
Sounds like you should restore your iPad. For one thing, that will bring it up to current iOS rev (6.1.2). For another, that should clean out any junk and further make sure the two numbers you're referring to agree.
By the way, a viola is a musical instrument in the violin family. The word you're looking for is voila -
my ipad has IOS 5.1.1 version and i know there is newer update for them as when i go to download certain apps it wont let me because it needs IOS 7 but when i have plugged it into itunes it says no update needed?
Hello courtneys100,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post it appears that you are using an earlier iPad, which can only update to iOS 5. Some developers do offer compatible versions of their apps for people running older iOS versions, but ultimately it is up to that developer to make an older version. Check out the article for more information about installing the latest compatible version of an app on your iPad.
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X

Mail server setting to accept forwards from (our selected) networks
I am in the process of moving our mail from 10.6.8 to 10.9.
In ServerAdmin.app there was a place to indicate authorized networks for forwarding. That option is not available in Server.app. I am slowly working through the settings and setup of more nuanced mail service than Server.app provides and can't figure out where this setting is made.
Anyone know which of the various bits of the mail service contains that setting?
Is it
-o mynetworks=127.0.0.0/8
in /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix/Master.cf where I would comma delimit my other networks in?
Thanks.
-ErichYes, it'd be nice if Server.app accepted an option key chord or some such to access additional settings. The default Server.app GUI is unfortunately limited, so it's off to the command line.
See the command:
sudo serveradmin settings mail
for a list of the settings.
You're after mail:postfix:mynetworks:_array_index
See this Krypted article for some more details.
You can use postconf -n /Library/Server/Mail/Config/postfix to verify that the changes took, and here's a lower-level path into this same area. -

HT2801 can i use the Apple USB SuperDrive to upgrade my OS from 10.5 t0 10.6?
The optical drive on my Macbook Pro (Build 9L31a) broke a couple of years ago and I have thus far managed to get around it. Now that iCloud is about to reign down on my OS 10.5, I need to upgrade via disk. Will the new Apple USB SuperDrive do the trick or do I have to have the internal drive replaced. Is there another drive out there that would be better than the SuperDrive?
Thanks!Apple's USB drive won't work with your computer at all.

Please please help me!
You can choose which questions to answer. The answer does not have to have any basis in fact - the critical thing is to REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID. If you decide to say your first car was a Bugattii Veyron, that is no problem, as long as you remember to answer Bugatti Veyron if the question is ever asked in the future.
