Why does the settings of my IMAP account changed without my assistance?

I have the problem that on my new iPhone 5 (IOS 6) the "mailbox behaviour" for the folders "Drafts", "Sent" and "Trash" changed twice back from my selected settings (Folder in the IMAP-Account) to "On my iPhone" without my assistance? Why? The same happened to the select box below where to define when emails in the trash folder should be deleted permanently.

Are you using RTF for message composition or Plain Text?
If RTF, try using Plain Text instead when sending messages thru an Exchange Server. Windows Outlook does the same when using RTF for message composition but sending messages thru an Exchange Server also has an effect.

Why does the light on my battery charger change from green to orange after a few seconds?

Why does the light on my battery charger cable change from green to orange? The battery continues to accept a charge when light turns orange.

Green = not charging.
Orange = charging.
Note that if your laptop is pulling enough power (using CPU and GPU heavily) the light will turn green because the power adapter cannot provide enough power to charge your batteries in addition to keeping the system going.
In fact, you can drain your batteries even with the adapter plugged in with the 17 inch Macbook Pro if you push it hard enough, although I have not noticed this problem with my Retina Macbook Pro.

Why does the display name in older messages change if I update my address book for that E-mail address?

I have recently installed Thunderbird 24.5.0 after upgrading a WinXP machine to Win7. I have discovered a strange problem with older mail that was imported from Outlook Express 6.
The pastor of my church uses a generic E-mail address <[email protected]>. This address belongs to the position, not to an individual. We recently had a new pastor come to the church, and I updated my entry for this E-mail address to reflect the new person's name. This is fine for new mail sent since the new person arrived, but Thunderbird has also applied the new name to older mail from the previous pastor. This is very confusing, since the current pastor could not have sent mail from that address prior to her start date.
How can I get Thunderbird to stop changing the Display Name in archival messages that were sent by the previous pastor prior to September 01, 2013? I have not encountered this situation before using Netscape 4.x Mail, Outlook Express 6, and Windows Mail (Vista version).

Of course it does. It looks for a match between the sender's email address and a Contact in your address book. You've edited the Display Name for this account so it gets applied to any message with that email address if that's how your Address Book is configured.
In the Contact card for this address, you can tell it whether or not to use the "real" email address within the message, or the Display Name from your Address Book. Telling it to use the name found in the message ''might'' resolve this, but it depends on how the sender has formatted it. If he includes his name then Thunderbird should be able to resolve it, and you just add both configurations to your Address Book as two separate Contacts, rather than modifying the existing entry.
However, in this situation you're using the same email address for two distinct people, so Thunderbird may not be able to know who sent the old messages. If both have sent using "rector@stpeterscobourg.org" without any personalization then Thunderbird won't be able to differentiate between them.
I have to say that I haven't recently tried using different display names with the same email address, so I don't know for sure if TB can use the display name constructively. If there's nothing in the old messages to tell you which sender wrote them, then TB can't do anything about it.

Why does the volume on my MacBook Pro change on its own?

I just got my MacBook Pro and sometimes the volume goes up or down and usually when this happens iTunes opens up and starts playing randomly. Why does this happen!?

No. Have Apple fix this little problem before it becomes a bigger one.

Why does the Mac Pro merge email accounts?

When I set up the email the MacPro merged mine and my husbands accounts. How can I separate them?

INBOX is by design, the Union of all of your listed email accounts. I have six email accounts for various purposes that feed into my inbox.
If you want to look at them individually, just select the specific email account you wish to see displayed.
Mac OS X is prepared to have login accounts for each person, so that all their individual preferences (screensaver, opened Applications, desktop background, and lots of other items) can be tracked separately.
If you do not want to view your husband's email in your Inbox, give him his own login and put his email account there instead of in your inbox.

Why does the vector selection tool (white arrow) change layer selection to another vector mask?

I have been continually annoyed, when creating a vector mask-heavy document, with trying to select vector mask points by dragging a rectangle only to find that it instead selects a layer higher up which has a larger vector mask.
The only workaround is to manually select the points of my mask or to drag a rectangle from outside the canvas, meaning I have to zoom out or scroll to the edge - sometimes annoying if I am zoomed in quite far.
Does anyone know any resolution for this?
I know that the move tool can be set to automatically select a layer, depending on what part of the image is clicked, but why is there not an option to turn this off for vector editing?

What version of Photoshop are you using????
The White Arrow tool is the direct selection tool and it work best way you point it at a path segment line and click once. When you do all the control points in a close path segment will be marked with little squares and the two control point adjacent to where you clicked will have handles you can adjust.
You can also drag out a rectangle with the direct selection tool. When you do you may select many closed paths in a path a path may have many sub paths and each has a mode like add, subtract, intersect etc, and each has a stacking order like in a layer stack. So if you drag out a rectangle many paths control points will be marked and control point adjacent to crossing rectangle will have handles. Can be very confusing.
Here are two screen capture the first on shows the layer palette and path palette. You can see many shapes and path with sub paths and modes. I also targeted layer a vector mask. The selected the direct selection tool and in the image window I pointed at the 45 degree oval path near the top right. You cab see the four control points and two with handles. The second screen capture I only captured the image window. I used the direct selection tool and draged out a rectangle and you cab see many segments control points and many have handles. I have no problem selecting what I want to select

Why does the color on my calendar keeps changing colors on its own

I have several color coded calendars for each family members. My daugther's calendar all of a sudden changed from green to blue (which is my son's) by itself. I changed it back to green and it automatically changed back to blue again. This happened once before a while back and after I keep changing back the color, it corrected itself eventually.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it permanently?
Thank you in advance for your help!

Same problem on top of regularly dropping WIFI when all of my other devices have no problem.
Owned this laptop since FEB 2014. My worst experience with a laptop to date. Wish I'd bought ASUS now which I also considered before buying.Another family member bought ASUS & no issues.

Why does the content displayed on my screen increase without my doing anything

While I browse on the internet, I frequently must close my app because the screen gets distorted where I cannot make out what is on my screen. It is like what ever was on the screen gets four times bigger. I am unable to get the display to return to its original state which forces me to close down my app. Am I doing something wrong?

In Safari, a double tap with one finger on the Magic Mouse or a two finger double tap on the Trackpad will zoom in. You should be able to repeat that gesture to zoom out. You can disable those functions in System Preferences > Mouse > Point & Click tab > uncheck smart zoom. For the trackpad it's in System Preferences > Trackpad > Scroll & zoom tab.

Why does the folder repeate twice when I change the download folder or save files to location?

If I choose another folder to save my downloaded files to, it repeats that folder twice. For example, I will choose my desktop and it will place the location as C:\Users\PC\Desktop\Desktop instead of just C:\Users\PC\Desktop. I tried disabling all add-ons and running it in safe mode, resetting all preferences, deleting the .perf file, reinstalling Firefox without saving preferences, yet I am still having the same problem.

Why does the Pixel size of a jpeg change on a different computer?

I have a Mac OS X version 10.8.2 and Adobe Illustrator CS6.
When i save a file "for web" as a jpeg with a specific pixel size (320x50 for example) and then send it by email to someone, when they open it the dimensions somehow change.
Even though on my mac when i "get info" from the jpeg the dimensions are correct...
Please how can i stop this from happening?
Thanks!

DId you check clip to artboard when yo made the jpeg, did your image size shwo the correct dimensions.
If you are checking the file on your end and it is correct, then we need to know more about what is going on at the recipeient's end and how they are determining the size is wrong.

I have configured my android to connect to .me / cloud email. It works. But is does not do automatic email delivery. It seems to do fetch, not push. The settings are for imap. Can anybody tell me how to get push?

As Roger said, iCloud does not support external POP accounts.
However, you can configure your Max to directly receive your Yahoo! email by following these instructions:
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20110208153256491
Note that this works (for me) without a Yahoo Plus! account - and make sure that you scroll down to the comment at the end of the article which has all of the correct settings in one place.

Because the owners of the songs have not licensed them for sale in the U.S.
Apple doesn't have any say in the matter. it's up to the owner of the distribution rights for the music.

Why does the Mail.app CC: field puts me first on the CC: list although I was not ?

Why does the Mail.app CC: field always rearranges the list so I am first on the CC: list although the sender intentionally did not ?
I did not see how and where to de-activate this unnecessary intrusion in the company's communication codes.
iOS on my iphone, correctly leaves my name where it is in the CC: list.

Hi starbux48,
Yahoo! partnered with Apple to allow an IMAP style offering on the iPhone, free of charge for their users. However that feature is only available if you use the iPhone. If you want IMAP/POP access on computers then you'd need to upgrade to the Plus level account.

Why does the "find my iphone" ap say i'm not connected to the internet when i clearly am?

I can see web pages, update facebook status, tweet, etc. but this ap says i'm not connected to the internet (wifi and Verizon LTE). Also, why does the podcast ap say its unable to authorize to automatically update my podcasts (which automatically download to my mac book pro every day without a problem)?

Go here:
Settings > iTunes & App Stores > tap your Apple ID: > View Apple ID > Country/Region
and confirm that it's set to the correct country for your account. If it is, try signing out of your account and back in.
Hope this helps.

TS3999 why does the calendar delete past events?

why does the calendar delete past events?

Hello 123Giblet,
The iPhone has a setting for how long a past event will appear in your calendar. I found steps to help you change this setting in the iPhone User Guide:
Calendar settings
There are several settings in Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars that affect Calendar and your calendar accounts. These include:
•Syncing of past events (future events are always synced)
•Alert tone played for new meeting invitations
•Calendar time zone support, to show dates and times using a different time zone
When you tap on Sync, you will be given several options for how long you want past events to stay on your iPhone, and there is also an option to select All Events so that they remain on your calendar. You can find this information on page 69 of the iPhone User Guide
iPhone User Guide

Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.
