Which file contains accounts information

I have been having some problems recently and twice had to hard reset my MacBook. Each time Apple Mail lost all my mail account settings and I had to set them up again (for several mail accounts). Where are these stored so I can keep a backup which can be easily restored if necessary.

Your Mail accounts settings are in the preference file of the User's account.
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
It would also be wise to copy the mailboxes and emails within, of the whole Mail folder.
~/Library/Mail
+note: ~ refers to your Home folder, ie, the house icon in the Finder.+

  • Which file contains faxlog

    hello together,
    the faxlog in the internal modem window can not be saved and/or printed.
    So I was looking for the file which contains the information shown in this window.
    There is a faxlog in /var/log/fax but it does not contain the Information needed.
    I also checked ~/Library/Logs without success.
    The cups log is not sufficient, because the phonenumber is not provided.
    Does anyone know in which file the information I am looking for is stored?
    Thanks in advance
    Greetings

    The passwords are stored in the keychain. The rest of account settings are stored in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist.

  • Which Infotype contains the information on High Potencial employees (in PD)

    Hello,
    is there any infotype in PA/PD/talent management that contains the information on "High Potencial"/"High Performing" employees?
    Thank You & Regards
    Raghu Kolukuluri

    Within talent management you are able to assign a person as high potential in the performance feedback document (by using the OSA application). When this has been done and approved the data can be written back to a High Potential talent group in Succession Management.
    This or you can search directly for the high potential assignments via the search on appraisal document items also in Succession Management.
    With Enhancement Package 1 several new functions are available to handle your high potential employees.

  • Why does my update.exe file contain personal information?

    My friend could not connect to websites. Upon trying to assist with his problem, I found out he was using Internet Explorer, and not Firefox. Since he could not access website to download, I downloaded the firefox .exe file and sent it to him over the instant message.
    Upon successful installation he found his browser contained my bookmarks and other personal information. How is this possible, or even acceptable?

    That shouldn't cause personal data to appear, unless you have had installed Firefox in the past on that computer and Firefox has been uninstalled, but the personal data has not been removed. In that case the previously created profile will be found and used automatically.

  • Which library file contains all the registered application in win98/win2000

  • Which file learns to recoginze spam?

    I am running Leopard on a laptop and a desktop box. Mail's spam recognition is excellent on the laptop but the desktop is untrained. Which file contains the learning or spam awareness, and can i simply copy that file to the desktop to make it work as well as the laptop?

    Hi Koshal,
    I want to know if the output file is a complete list of attributes to attach to customers per line i.e. customer name, email, products that we want to sell to them, or if it is made up of two files, file one with the customer attributes, names emails etc.  And one file with the detail, to be sent to all customers i.e. products.  The first one contains repeated information, the second doesn't.
    Thanks in advance

    On iTunes when i plug my iphone in, the bar at the bottom with contains the information about the capacity of my iphone, it has a bar called 'other' which has 4GB. I don't know what is taking up that space or how to get rid of it. please help

    You can reduce the size to normal, which is about 1GB, by restoring the phone.

    The size of this part can increase when something goes wrong during a sync, or some files can't be read anymore by iTunes.

  • I bought and installed many fonts for a project and one font in particular which is showing up in the font list on a new file, is missing when I open an existing file containing that font. I can't understand why that's happening and the font is Centrale S

    Hi
    I am encountering a missing font error on Adobe Illustrator for a font that I recently bought - Centrale Sans Bold. This font is clearly installed in the system's font folder and is also showing in the font list on Adobe Illustrator. But when I open an existing file containing this font it is giving the error "The document uses fonts or characters which are not available or are in a different format than originally specified".
    We have also bought Centrale Sans regular from a different website as we couldn't find both on one, could that be clashing somehow?
    Also the existing file was created on MAC plattform and we are using a windows plattform to open it. That to me doesn't seem like an issue as all other files are opening up fine and I have bought around 47 fonts and only this font seems to be not working. I have also written to the website I bought it from but I have also bought around 20-25 fonts from them and all the other fonts are working fine too. Maybe its an illustrator related problem?
    Please help!!!!!!

    There is one way its getting fixed. Once I update my Adobe Illustrator CC to Adobe Illustrator CC 2014 it is further allowing me to go into the system folder and allocate the font to the file so that it can replace it. My only concern now is that our MAC partners who will receive these files back from us have Adobe CS6. We will down save it to CS6 but I hope they won't experience any font issues because of us using CC 2014? Any light you can shed on this?

  • Win8.1 - Error when using traceview "PDB file does not contain provider information"

    We have been attempting to manage a Windows 8.1 machine by using the Enterprise Device Management Protocol.
    We are encountering a failure during the process and would like to inspect what is going wrong on the Client Side. Used the “Windows 8.1 Enterprise device Management Protocol” guide that was published by Microsoft.
    The guide suggests that for capturing and viewing logs generated by the built-in management agent and its components you will need access to the traceview.exe utility and the debug symbol files (.pdb) for the Windows build running on the device.It says that
    we can enable advanced logging by adding the following keyvalue to the registry.
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\MDM\Debug Settings]
    "EnableSyncmlLogging"=dword:00000001
    Start the traceview.exe utility from an elevated command prompt and add the following providers:
    mdmagent.pdb
    mdmappprov.pdb
    mdmsettingsprov.pdb
    Start the log capture and execute the scenario.
    We have been having problems with adding the providers. We tried both downloading the symbol files from
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-in/windows/hardware/gg463028.aspx#Download_windows as well as pointing traceview to the Microsoft symbol server. All our attempts to add providers result in “PDB file does not contain provider information”
    Machine specs:  Windows 8.1 Pro – 64 bit operating System
    We would be grateful if someone could help us set up logging for this scenario using traceview or any other tool/mechanism.

    Hi,
    About traceview issue, better to post your question to the forum for Windows WDK forum:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsdesktop/en-US/home?forum=wdk
    The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn

    I've tried to create the TMF file were the provider is in located. The .PDB file will try to locate the provider in the  TMF file, but it doesn't get created. I've used tracepdb.exe to make one.
    I don't think Microsoft provided the provider. Instead it is looking for a .tmc file.
    See the documentation for creating a tmf file.

  • I can't open illustrator files as an error message says 'file contains conflicting spot colour information...' then closes, how do I resolve this?

    The full message reads 'The file contains conflicting spot color information. Spot and process colors cannot share the same name. Please resolve the spot color conflict and try reopening this file.'
    The problem is the file just closes after that. If anyone has had this problem before and managed to resolve it, please please help!

    This turned out to be a links issue. One of the psd's had corrupted. In the end we found out by making sure the file couldn't connect to the links in the illustrator document allowing it to open in the basic vector format. We disconnected from the network, another way would be to move the links folder. Once the file was open the links could be deleted/replaced seems it didn't close the file straight away.
    I hope this helps anyone else that has this problem, there really wasn't much information on it, especially not up to date information.

  • The file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored

    We have been sending images out to contractors, and sometimes when they come back the files are having this error:
    the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored
    When I then try to Photoshop Script the file info it throws errors.  Does anyone know what causes this error to happen?
    Thank you

    ok, Thanks!, BUT here's the bigger issue:
    We use a lot of Photoshop Scripting, and the file info is how we direct all of our workflows.  when a file comes back with "the file contains file info data which cannot be read and has been ignored" error, the scripts are unable to read/write to any of the file info ever again.  So not only did we lose all the info already in the file, but we can't use the file at all after this.
    Additonally, we tried copying and pasting to new blank documents, but realized we needed all the paths, channels, and sampler points too.
    Is there anything anyone can think of to get around this probelm?  A setting, or a program to fix the metadata, etc?
    Thanks!!!

  • Which files actually hold the info & settings for a single Mail Account?

    One of my mail accounts must have gotten corrupted yesterday. Since then I can no longer retrieve mail for this account. This account can still send mail normally. All the other mail accounts on this machine function properly and I can retrieve emails from this account on another Mac.
    I could probably solve the problem by deleting the account and recreating it. However when I had this problem once before and deleted/recreated the account it was a long process to try to import all the old emails (which I want to keep) from my Time Machine backup. At that time I still lost emails because the import kept hanging up at the same point in the process, so I would like to avoid having to go through that again.
    I'm hoping that if I could identify the files that hold all the account specific info I could restore just those files with Time Machine. I'm guessing that if I were to quit Mail, restore those files and then relaunch Mail, everything should be back to the way it was before the files were corrupted.
    Does anyone know if my theory is valid? And, if so, do you know which files I need to replace and where to find them?
    -- Thanks, in advance, for your help!

    Thanks for the response!
    Well, I looked in the location you mentioned (Users/yourname/Library/Mail/nameof_yourpop account) before posting my question, but if you look in that POP folder the only things there are the .mbox files for that account: Deleted Messages.mbox, Drafts.mbox, INBOX.mbox, Junk.mbox & Sent Messages.mbox. Inside each of those are the actual emails for those folders, which would restore all the emails (which I haven't lost), but there doesn't seem to be any files that carry the info/settings for the account.
    I was hoping to find the settings files which must be located somewhere else. Do you have any other suggestions?
