Why is my gmail suddenly not working?!

I've seen others online with the same
problem. Basically, out of nowhere,
gmail has stopped working on my iPhone.
It tells me:
"the mail server imap.gmail.com is not
responding. Verify that you have entered
the correct account info in mail settings."
I have not changed any settings.
I did, however download and install
that new app Mailbox, which, although
it is free, makes you wait until enough
other people download it before you
can use it. However, I'm wondering if
it has done something with the settings?
If others know about this, please help!

When something works one day, but not the next, then something has changed. The task is to find out what has changed. My first guess would be that an Audio Hardware setting in PrPro has changed, Edit>Preferences>Audio Hardware. The second would be that something has changed in the OS, but as the mic still functions in other programs, but not in PrPro, I moved this down to #2, for possible causes.
Check the Audio Hardware settings in PrPro, and maybe upload screen-caps of the dialog screens, so that others can see the settings, if nothing jumps out at you.
If nothing is wrong in Audio Hardware, I would Delete, Move or Rename the Preferences file for PrPro. I will not even try to talk you though that on a Mac, as I will certainly mess things up, being a PC-guy. PrPro will regenerate a new Preferences file, though you will have to then manually adjust those, as you require, since it will be the install default Preferences. Maybe a Mac-user can give you directions on how to do this. On a PC, one would just hold down the Ctrl+Alt+Shift keys, while doing the full launch of the program, all the way through that launch. Or, they could go into the folder structure, and locate the Preferences file, and either Deleting it, Moving it, or Renaming it.
Good luck,
Hunt

Gmail suddenly not working on iPad

I installed an update for the Pages app yesterday on my iPad, it rebooted after the install, and since then gmail does not work. I get the "imap.gmail not responding cannot connect to server" message. I haven't changed any settings. What do I do?
Thanks!

Try removing your gmail account from your iPad in settings, email and accounts. Then adding it back on.

Gmail suddenly not working with Apple Mail

My gmail suddenly is not working with Apple Mail.
It said my username or password is wrong, but it was okay this morning.
Nevertheless, I deleted my gmail account, and re-setup it using Internet Accounts from System Preference.
However, I got the beow message:
There was a problem setting up the Mail account. An unknown error occurred.
I am sure my username and password are correct because I just login it using Safari.
Does anyone know what the cause is?
Please help~~~

Gmail not syncing in mac mail is a problem that is also in snow leopard since the new year.
OSX 10.6.8 is the highest OS that will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo. Do not try to install Mavericks on this machine! I will install, but turns it into a dinosaur and many programs will no longer run.
I had an issue with Mac Mail not syncing with imap.gmail.com. and Safari not being able to find apple.com.
This was resolved by working with an upper level tech support member for several hours deleating particular system library files, uninstalling most addons, reseting system network settings and a whole lot more! (too much to name here)
Thank you Apple Tech Support.

Why would a website suddenly not work in Safari?

I have been on the website for months, but suddenly I cannot access it. I can access via a Proxy so the website and my ID/log in is up and running. I have tried via Firefox and that does not work either. I cleared my cache, restarted but still no joy. I called my ISP, but they tell me it must be a problem with my laptop. Any help please?

Tried using different domain name servers?
Flushing DNS cache?
Turning off proxy?
You would find similiar issues over on Safari, Snow Leopad forum, and post to the MacBook Pro area instead.

Why is my mic suddenly not working in PPro CS4?

Hi
I have a mac running CS4 Premiere Pro.
I'm using a SM57 mic which I plug into a pre-amp to boost the sound and then from this box I plug into the line-in slot on my mac. I'm recording simple voice-overs over silent footage.
It's all been working beautifully. But now it's not receiving any sound (the green bars don't move) and I can't work out why.
It's not the pre-amp, cables or mic - they all work fine through garageband (but the sound quality isn't nearly as good so I don't want to use that and then export to PPro)
I'm certain I have set it up as I always have done. I'm completely baffled as to what has gone wrong.
Any suggestions much appreciated...

PS CS: Why is 'Layer Styles' suddenly not working?

I have a brand new Imac with OSX 10.6.2 and runing PS CS although I cannot recall which version it is it was purchased around 2003.
I got the new imac 2 months ago and was happily using PS when suddenly when I double click on any layer to get to the layer palette most of photoshop becomes inaccessbile with menu selections being grey and the palette not responding. Its almost as though it has opened the layers style window but I cannot see it (although I cannot recall if doing that when it did work meant most things were inaccessible).
I have to force quit and if I don't I get an error message anyway and ps closes down.
I trashed the version of ps I was using and then installed it again but the problem continues. Actually now I remember it before this started happening I was opening PS and I suddenly got a box telling me various extensions were not accessible but it quickly disappeared and I haven't seen that box again.
Also around the point this issue started occuring I downloaded a Microsoft file for operating a pc remotely (for work purposes). I have deleted that file in case that was the issue but the issue remains.
I have googled this problem and came across something similar which suggested the user with the problem reset the preferences to factory as deleting and reinstalling doesn't erase preference settings which may be causing the problem.
Is this a known issue? I have been a photoshop user for 10 years now and never had a problem before that wasn't clearly a result of my mac being old and I was asking too much of it.

Restting your preferences is a possible fix, since preferences files
do get corrupted every so often.
I don't think it's really a known issue, but it happens for whatever reason.

Iphone gmail suddenly not working via Safari

Yesterday, when using Safari to log into gmail on the iphone, I no longer get the html 5 version, only a white page with some email lines on it. I have reset cookies, etc under safari preferences and deleted the database for gmail. Anyone else seeing an issue?

I can't figure this out. When I log into gmail.com with my iphone, I get a super watered down version. It doesn't look like the normal one I usually get. I went into Safari Preferences and cleared everything and removed all databases. It's like gmail won't put the html5 version back. I am wondering if you reset what I did above, if you would start having the same issue.

Why does Bridge CC suddenly not work?

When I open Bridge, I get this message:
Bridge encountered a problem & is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situatio
When I do this, however, there is no change; I will search for something I KNOW is in a folder, but I still get "NO ITEMS TO DISPLAY."
What's going on here?!

HT201320 why my gmail is not working?

why is my gmail is not working?

same here, gmail IMAP now takes forever to sync with the mail client, and not just Mail, but the slow-sync also happens in Thunderbird. perhaps Google's having imap server issues... i've given up on the Mail client, too unreliable, i just use the browser instead.

Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

Hello:
I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
Many thanks.

IChat video suddenly not working

Can anyone help? I'm using iChat 4.0.8 on an almost brand new MacBook Pro. The video worked perfectly fine with my parents, and then suddenly stopped working when we moved. We're still using a wireless connection with an airport extreme. Funny thing is, the video works fine with my husband's MacBook Pro, and my brother who is in California. Why would it suddenly not work with my parents when computers haven't changed?
please help!

AppleTv2: HDCP suddenly not working on netflix after update

I have had a working AppleTV2 for about a year and have been using netflix to stream movies. After most recent update I can no longer stream due to HDCP error. There are been no changes to the hardware (cables, TV, power, etc.) This can only point to the update. I tried to do a restore from Mac to the most recent update. I took it into the genius bar and they tried to do the same thing. No change, they only offer the $69 Service replacement. I have tried changing the outputs, the hdmi cable and powering up in a certain manner. None of these work? Why is this suddenly not working?
Thanks for any help.

Interesting (albeit, odd) addition to this issue --
on my work system (dual G5, decked out, 23" Cinema), the same issue started to happen after the QT upgrade... however in my situation, the movie would load, but then just sit there, frozen.
The first time I saw this, I started to move my mouse across the web page, and noticed that every time the pointer would roll over a URL link or any other rollover type of object within the browser window (e.g., a link or even a tab or bookmark shortcut in the Safari toolbar) the movie would suddenly start and stop, but just for a fraction of a second. But yet, if I just leave my mouse sitting on top of the URL or rollover object, it does nothing. It appears to be directly related to the action of roll-on or roll-out from other objects on the page, or within the overall window.
So basically, if I take my mouse and move it ridiculously fast back and forth over any one of these rollover items, the movie will play for a fraction of a second each time the pointer passes over the object and makes it highlight... something to the effect of watching a flip-book animation that stutters along.
Very bizarre -- not sure what happened with the update, but hoping that there is a patch released soon. It would appear that it's conflicting with other objects within the window, or it's waiting for some action on another rollover-type of item that is loaded within the overall window.

TS3276 Accessing Gmail suddenly stopped working on both my Powerbook pro running latest OS and Mail versions and on my iPhone. I can access via the web. I get the error that my password or username is incorrect. I reset my password in Gmail and confirmed

Accessing Gmail suddenly stopped working on both my Powerbook pro running latest OS and Mail versions and on my iPhone. I can access via the web. I get the error that my password or username is incorrect. I reset my password in Gmail and confirmed it works on gmail, I then changed it on my Iphone and Mac Mail. It still does not work. I deleted the gamil account on mail on my mac and reinstalled it and it still will not work

I too started having my password rejected in MAIL.app for imap.mail.me.com for my icloud email address. Can login to icloud with web browser fine. This has been happening off and on for several days.....if I wait 2-3 hours it will suddenly start working again, but then problem re-asserts itself ;-)

Why would a PCI card not work in a similar G4?

Why would an Audio Interface PCI card work in one Mac G4, but not in a newer, similar computer?
My Sonorus STUDI/O audio interface card has been working great in my G4 450 (AGP), through various MacOS versions, now in OS 9.2.2, using LOGIC Pro 6 recording software.
Putting the card in a Power Mac G4 Dual 1.25 Ghz (MDD Mirror Drive Door), the card is recognized by Apple System Profiler, but Logic abruptly quits without explanation as soon as it starts up and tries to acknowledge and integrate the card.
Throwing away Logic’s Preferences will let me successfully start up Logic, and choosing the basic MacAV as the audio engine will work just fine (so it’s not the application itself that’s broken). But if I specify the STUDI/O, as soon as I relaunch Logic to activate that choice, the program just quits without explanation again.
Same system (OS 9.2.2) as in the G4 450 (except that the Mirror Drive’s OS 9 was a slightly newer, machine-specific build).
No special drivers needed, as Logic supports the card directly.
I tried all available PCI slots, with no difference.
So why would a PCI card suddenly not work at all in a newer, but comparable Mac? Any ideas?
Thanks,
Peter
Additional bit: The STUDI/O card is not supported in OS X, and Sonorus has closed its doors. So there's no help forthcoming from that direction. But in OS 9, everything should be good to go. Could a somewhat newer, faster computer like the Dual 1.25 really have that much of a detrimental impact on a PCI card?
