Without Warning, OSX 10.6.8 emailer has epic fail

Even my MacGuru of some 17years could not figure what the *wild weasel* malfunction was coming from. He's the one who steered me to use the designated iCloud account page. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, my 10.6.8 emailer *epically failed* to receive email as shown in the InBox. Contacted my MacGuru , whom is also my webmaster who has set up my emailer in past who advised to do a Connection Doctor check. Did one 3X and all a connections green lighted and sent current screenshots as proof of my findings to him along with a screenshot of the InBox of my OSX emailer showing *zero* outside emails since 6:30 AM, July 31,2014. That InBox remains dysfinctional. The strange thing is it does register email I send myself to myself as well as some., nowhere near all , ( as shown by my iCloud account webpage InBox , emails of my webmaster. It was as if fully half of our morning's email dialogue never happened according to my OSX 10.6.8 email InBox. He even informed me everything looks fine from his remote monitoring to which I had to reply, obviously the remote map is clearly *not* the actual territory. I suggested a possible *corrupted* emailer which he responded that it can't happen because all signs show everything is go. So what do I do with that diagnosis when my OSX 10.6.8 *still* is NOT functioning as it normally should forcing me to depend upon the iCloud.com account page for any reliable receiving of email. I can *send* form my on iMac emailer, but reception is totally epic fail. Hence the iCloud.com account webpage is the only reliable alternative.
Any ideas out there? Should I just back-up archive all of my created MailBoxes and trash this piece of dysfunctional emailer garbage and either do a clean install of just the emailer or would an epic fail like this require a clean install of all of OSX 10.6.8? I amForced to staywith OSX 10.6.8 because this is Wacom's he cut-off support version for my the drivers for my Wacom 12X 18 Wacom Intuos as I can not uyet afford the $700 upgrade to an IntuosIII . Measnwhile this iCloud account page is *most* inefficient , but I am left *no* other choice that I've been made aware of . That's why, out of desperation to understand what the OSX emailer app dysfunction is , I came to this open forum.

The Disk verify reported no problems. The permissions repair found and repaired permission problems; I've done this both from inside OSX and using the install disk.

Maybe a cache got corrupted. Reboot in safe mode then reboot again.
Possibly run OnyX to do even more aggressive cleanups.

Without warning when I write an email, I can only send to 1 recipient. How can I get back to multiple recipients?

I have been using Thunderbird for several years now and this is the first time I have had something like this happen. Yesterday, when I tried to send an email to several individuals I was no allowed to do so.
After typing the first name in I could not generate another "To" line for the 2nd recipient.
How can I restore Thunderbird to working properly short of uninstalling and reinstalling?

What are you trying to do after filling out the first address field?
Hitting Enter or Return will generally create a new field.
You can also move your mouse to the divider line under the subject field and when it becomes a double headed arrow, left click, hold and drag down to reveal move fields.
Go into the config editor and tell us what is in the addresswidget field.
From the menu bar select Tools-Options-Advanced-General
Click Config Editor and promise to be careful
type addresswidget in the search field.
This field specifies how many address fields to display when opening a Write window but has nothing to do with keeping you from hitting Enter to keep them coming.
You right click the addresswidget line and select Modify to change the default value which is 3.

Help?

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. If you're using Vista or 7, now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair". If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel, select "Apple Application Support", click "Change" and then click "Repair".

Ever since my iphoto library crashed (ran out of space without warning) my mcbook pro has been slow, unresponsive, freezes in sleep mode and won't restart... please help.

Hi everyone
Ever since my iphoto library crashed (ran out of space without warning) my mcbook pro has been slow, unresponsive, freezes in sleep mode and won't restart...
I've since backed everything up on an external hard drive, removed the corrupt library, even reinstalled the operating software and there is now hardly anything on the hard drive, it still runs painfully slow. If I close the lid which puts it in sleep mode, it either doesn't go into sleep mode but instead the battery just gets drained and I find it completely empty of power (it won't start again unless plugged in), or it goes into sleep mode but just freezes when I try to reopen.
In iphoto (reinstalled) but even other applications it is painfully slow, not like a mac at all!
I am trying to go to genius bar with it but thinking maybe someone in this forum can help...
Many thanks
Andre

Have you tried SMC and PRAM resets?

Has anyone experienced their iphone5 randomly shuts off without warning?

i often have this problem with my iphone5, it just turns off randomly without warning. i press the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time to turn it on again. i thought at first it was a batterry issue, but the thing is it happens randomly, sometimes at 50%, 80% and 30% battery life.
one minute i'm using it normally, then after a few minutes being idle, i find out its already shut down.
any solutions?

I am having the same problem on a 12 inch PowerBook. I left it in sleep mode for a couple of days and when I went to use it, I noticed that it was very warm and that it had shut down. When I hit the power button, it gave the usual chime but would not start. I tried various things and finally removed the 1 gig RAM chip to see if that was the problem and it started fine so at first I thought it was the RAM. But I put the RAM back in and it started fine so now I think it was overheating. I've noticed before when it was asleep that it was not cooling off so it seems to be drawing power while asleep. Any suggestions on how to trouble shoot this?

BT cutting off service without warning - plus if y...

On 18th December 2014, I rang BT to cancel my broadband service since I had found a far better deal with Hyperoptic. I was told that I had to give a month’s notice and would have to pay £30 for an engineer to come out and cut it off. Since this was the only option available I agreed, and arranged that my new broadband supplier would connect me before I was cut off by BT on the 18th January 2015.
On 1st January 2015, a day when it was impossible to do anything about the situation because it was a public holiday, my BT Broadband service was cut off without any warning. At first, BT told me I had never had Broadband with BT. When I disputed this I was told that my BT Broadband had been scheduled for cancellation on 1st January 2015. I asked, repeatedly, to speak to the call operative’s manager, and I was told, several times, that she was too busy. It was only when I lost my temper (which I do not like to do) that she miraculously became available. I felt I was pushed to this point, not by the call operative himself, but by the protocols he was clearly following. I was then informed that I had been told, via email, that my BT Broadband service was scheduled for cancellation on 1st January and, when I insisted I had received no such email; I was told that it had been sent to an email address to which I have had no access to for two years.
I updated my contact details, long ago, via ‘My BT’. I can provide screengrabs demonstrating the contact details I provided, the email address to which my eBilling has long been sent, and the lack of any instruction that I was to be cut off on 1st January.
It shows that I had paid three months in advance on 17th November (£105.42) so there was no reason for my BT Broadband to be cut off on 1st January. I have had no refund of any monies whatsoever.
The manager promised to listen to the phone call I made on 18th December and to call me back. She later stated that she was unable to listen to the call and so arranged to call me again the next day.
Surely, however, call operatives are told what to tell customers who arrange cancellation? Why, for instance, would I make up a story about being told I had to pay £30 for an engineer to cut me off? On 2nd January, while waiting for BT to call back, I contacted Hyperoptic who were amazing and installed my new service on 5th January.
When the BT manager finally called to say she would transfer me to customer services so I could be reconnected, I was told this process would take two to three days to perform. As a freelance writer, my income depends on access to the internet, and I do not keep regular office hours – working to deadlines through nights and weekends. I asked explained this. It would have been helpful to have been given a code with BTWifi-withFON, for instance, to tide me over until the Monday. The call operative said, ‘I do understand where your frustrations lie’, put me on hold and then, after about 10 minutes, the line went dead.
I sent this complaint to the Customer Service Manager, at BT Customer Correspondence Centre
Providence Row, Durham, DH98 1BT, the letter was dated 5th January 2015. I have had no response, no refund and, to add insult to injury, was sent another bill – for £10, which after another angry phone call, was rescinded.
I find it incredible that BT treats its customers in this way. Cutting them off without warning, ignoring their complaints and offering no refund. I don't understand why - when I paid three months up front on the 17th November 2014 - I have had no monies returned to me subsequent to being cut off on 1st January 2015.

Time Machine BUG: Without warning, one or more of your disks stops being backed up...

Hi all
Just discovered an interesting and potentially dangerous bug in TM running 10.7.4 (like many others I've downgraded from 10.7.5 because of the Spotlight/TM problems noted in this forum).
Here's the bug: You set up TM and specify certain items -- files, folders or volumes -- to be excluded in the "Options" pane of TM Preferences. If you exclude a volume (e.g. a cloned backup volume), that volume must of course be mounted in order for it to be added to the "Exclude" list. But if you subsequently umount the excluded volume, TM SIMPLY REPLACES IT WITH SOME OTHER MOUNTED VOLUME without warning. The result: unknown to you, one of your disks, that you think is being backed up, isn't. You can actually see this happen if you unmount the disk you want to exclude while your exclusions list is open.
This bug is 100% reliable. Tried permissions repair, clear caches, verify backups, reset TM by deleting /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist and re-entering excluded items -- same result.
Question: Have others found this bug? Has anyone found a way of adding a volume to the TM exclusions list so that it "sticks" regardless of whether or not the volume is mounted??
The only workaround I can see: Never unmount any disks in your exclusions list -- if you do, something else will be excluded instead. If like me you want easy access to the disks you work with but not others (e.g. backup clones), one option is to make the excluded disk mounted-but-not-visible.
Appreciate others comments before reporting to Apple in case there's something weird in my setup (don't think there is).
Pondini: Checked your great site, couldn't see this noted - apologies if I missed it.
Ta much.

For Windows 7 I corrected the problem using the steps below. Since Windows 8 is setup for touch screen you will need to find these controls.

Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15" Blacks Out Without Warning

Quick Summary of Problem: My MacBook Pro is currently shutting down without warning. It would be more accurate to say that the screen goes blank but the machine remains on as can be heard by the fan. Nothing resolves it without powering down and restarting. It has occurred when attached to a power source or via the battery.
My machine specs: Mid 2010 MacBook Pro 15” with 500GB hard drive, 8GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics/nVidia GeForce GT 330M with 512MB, anti-glare 15” screen with max resolution 1680 x 1050). Running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 with 2013-001 Security Patch installed.
I have AppleCare which commenced when I first bought the machine in July 2010.
System Profiler says my battery condition is ‘Normal’. Cycle count: 610.
Detailed Summary of Problem: Back in January, my MacBook Pro shut down several times without warning. Each time, I was creating selections on high resolution imagery in Adobe Photoshop CS5.
Not long after, I saw the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ relased on Feb 12 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1633) and installed it via Software Update. By coincidence or not, my MBP behaved much better afterwards and the seemingly random blank screens requiring a restart disappeared.
But then I installed the ‘Security Update 2013-001 (Snow Leopard)’(http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1642) via Software Update and that’s the only thing I can really remember changing to my system. Since then, the black-outs have reappeared. As before, I was usually using Photoshop and working with high resolution imagery. However, one time the machine blacked-out, I was simply doing a two-finger scroll on the built-in trackpad whilst in Chrome (Version 25.0.1364.172).
The blackout has occurred twice now not being connected to power, and twice with it being connected to a wall socket. Needless to say, I lost work in Photoshop (even though I’ve begun to save more regularly) and now it feels like it’s a ticking time bomb and I don’t know when it’s going to go off.
One thing I’ve found rather odd is that in the crash log, the kernal version doesn’t seem right for Snow Leopard:
Kernel version:
Darwin Kernel Version 10.8.0: Tue Jun 7 16:33:36 PDT 2011; root:xnu-1504.15.3~1/RELEASE_I386
System model name: MacBookPro6,2 (Mac-F22586C8)
The full crash log can be found at the bottom of this post.
Fixes I’ve tried:
1) Resetting the NV-RAM has done nothing. (was suggested
2) I’ve tried reinstalling the ‘MacBook Pro SMC Firmware Update 1.7’ by downloading the manual installer from Apple, however it now says ‘Alert: This software is not supported on your system’ which in a way makes sense given I’d already applied the firmware update, but a more accurate message along the lines of ‘This firmware update has already been installed’ would be more reassuring.
3) If all else fails, I could resort to copying over a backup I created with Carbon Copy Cloner, which was done before I reinstalled the 2013-001 Security Update for Snow Leopard. But that’s a bit of a headache too, because my documents I’ve updated since the backup will be out of sync. Another reason this isn’t a great solution is that I can’t take advantage of the 2013-001 security update, nor future ones.
Any suggestions? There’s probably no good time for something like this to happen, but this is a particularly bad time – I’m currently beginning design and finished art freelancing and brushing up on some applications I haven’t used in years. Nor am I going to make an impression meeting with recruiters without my folio being presented from my MBP.
I’ve already booked a Genius appointment 2.5 days from now, but all help and ideas greatly appreciated!

I am sorry. The page that came up has an AD for issues with a 13" MacBook Pro in the corner. I read the AD as if it were part of the article and assumed the whole page referred to the 13" model. My Mistake.
However, the issue described by TS4088 is not a soldering problem. It is a Latent Defect -- a flaw built into certain batches of those chips from the day they were packaged and installed.
If your Mac fails the VST test used to detect this Latent Defect, re-flowing the solder is likely to have NO EFFECT on its performance -- the solution is the remove the defective chip and replace with a good one.
There certainly can be problems in these and other Macs where a re-flow would be beneficial. But I caution Readers not to generalize your solution to Macs that are known to fail VST. Re-flow alone will not solve the Latent Defect problem.

I can't update iPhoto after installing OSX 10.9.2, it has the name otto@**** in the apple ID box and will not let me change it. Any thoughts?

Hello people,
I can't update iPhoto after installing OSX 10.9.2, it has the name otto@**** in the apple ID box and will not let me change it. Any thoughts?
Thanks
<Email Edited By Host>

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)

How can I attach an image without the image is in the email body? (using the new mail the Lion)
I want in attachment, not in the body mail.

I think your only solution is to zip the image files first and then attach them.
Read this from a site I found:
Sending Graphical Attachments -- When you attach a graphical image to your message, the recipient of your message sees the image inline (that is, in the body of the message) if her email client supports inline display. ("Take Control of Email with Apple Mail" contains a table listing the capabilities of popular Mac and PC email clients.) If a client does not support inline display (or the recipient has turned off the inline display option), the file appears as an attachment that must be opened in a separate program.
On the one hand, an inline image is easier for the recipient to see - all she has to do is look at it. On the other hand, inline images can be frustrating to scroll through. If you do not wish to send a graphical image inline, you must compress the file before attaching it - Mail, sadly, lacks a built-in compression option, though fortunately for Panther users, the Finder offers Zip compression without requiring a separate application.
Note that when you compose a new message, Mail always shows attachments in the body of your message. You can manually drag them somewhere else, but many email clients display all attachments in a separate list, regardless of where you place them in the message body.
If you paste an image into a message or drag & drop an image from another window (say, a Web browser), Mail converts the raw image data to an attachment in TIFF format. On the other hand, if you drag & drop the icon of an image file (or use the Attach button to locate the file using the file browser), Mail leaves the attached image in its original format. This difference is significant, because although most email clients can display JPEG images just fine, support for TIFF - especially in non-Mac email clients - is less common. If possible, I suggest attaching image files as opposed to pasting or dragging in raw image data.

I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

Welcome!
Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
It goes in an available PCI slot
There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
USB wireless "dongle:"
Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
USB PCI adaptor:
http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

2006 Macbook running 10.6.8 shuts down without warning

It's a 2006 Macbook (I bought new in 06) running os x 10.6.8. Up until 6 months ago no problems what so ever with the computer. I would be working and every once in a while, it would just shut down. Replaced the battery less than a year ago. Power supply (60w charger) had a short, so I replaced that about a week ago. Computer is still shutting down without warning. I did the 1.1 update on the OSX but it still acts up. I'm lucky to be able to use the computer right now (it's been running for 20 minutes...this time). Would it help if I upgraded to LION, or would it still do it then? Any help please...I'm a musician and it's my livelyhood.
Thanks,
David

When a Mac shuts down without warning, it's doubtful an upgrade will be the fix. You need to find out what's causing the problem.
Check the startup disk.
Launch Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utillities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Click: Verify Disk (not Verify Disk Permissions)
If Disk Utility reports errors, restart the Mac while inserting the install disc and holding down the C key simultaneously. From there you should be able to repair the startup disk.
No errors were found, run the Apple Hardware Test > Using Apple Hardware Test
If installed, anti virus software can cause system anomalies such as an unexpected shut down.

Why does Firefox continually close itself without warning, but reopen prior tabs, without an error message or crash report?

For the past couple weeks Firefox has been randomly closing itself, without warning. I will be on another program on my laptop and Firefox will shut down. But, when I reopen it, all my tabs will restore as if nothing happened, and there is rarely a recovery error alert. I also do not receive crash reports for this phenomenon. Everything about the browser seems to be working fine as usual otherwise.

I'm sorry but I think you didn't get the problem right. Firefox just unexpectedly closes. It does not crash. There are no crash reports.

How do I send an email to everyone in my folders without having to click on every email address - thanks

How can I email everyone in a contact folder without having to click on each email address individually - thanks

Open a new message, click on the Address Book button (the silhouette of a person), choose All Contacts on the left hand side of the Address Book, select the first name, Hold down cmd and at the same time press a. All persons will be highlighted. Now click on the "To" button and all the persons will appear in the To window of your message.
I would reitterate Low Luster's warning about spamming though...
