El Capitan e-mail, a lot of problems. Yosemite no email no problems.

E-mail from Apple on the new MacBook Pro 15 "was so buggy, it is almost impossible to use.

Most of the time my 3 email accounts are offline. I can get them online if usually 7 to 10 minutes. If the Mac goes to sleep or I leave him unattended for awhile I'll find my email accounts are offline. When the accounts are online, I'm still barely getting emails because they are sent to me, generally, hours later or the next day!

Setting up a new e-mail account, 100% of the time it is an error (unable to connect to the server). I have to wait 24 hours before an e-mail account works.

I run my old MacBook Pro along the side of my new Macbook Pro, so I can have reliable e-mail. On two Macs email accounts are set up as close as possible to each other. I tried every step that I could find online, however the e-mail problems remain problems.

I am using IMAP.

Any suggestions on how to fix the issues e-mail El Capitan, or recommendations for other email applications?

Hello

In your e-mail application problems are not caused by bugs. I have - and tens of thousands of others - use 3 + accounts under El Capitan, and experience no problems.

The most likely cause is a setting of mail account that need to be changed from when you were using OS X Yosemite. Please, try the following:

Open your e-mail application and find the menu: ' Mail > Preferences ' , then the [accounts] - tab. This is your e-mail accounts.

Click on the tab called [Advanced] and uncheck this option (as appropriate for the types of accounts you use):

- automatically detect and manage account settings

Then, in the same window, go ahead and check the box:

-allow insecure authentication

Repeat this operation for all your accounts. When you're finished, close the preferences window and choose to save the changes you made.

Then, look for the menu: ' display > connection doctor ' you will be presented with a window listing all e-mail servers configured in your email application. If you have any servers SMTP-type with a red connection leads, double-click on this server and another settings window opens.

Here you have another opportunity to uncheck:

-automatically detect and manage account settings

and check:

-allow insecure authentication

Repeat this step to save them all - SMTP servers that you use, the changes each time.

Restart the OS X via: '  > restart " and let us know if this solved your problems.

    Today I installed the latest security update on my server of El Capitan (10.11.6) running 5.1.7 Server-

    Unfortunately!

    After that, the e-mail server does not answer more. I find a lot of messages in the log files:

    E-mail from Apple in the preferences (El Capitan) settings is not accepting my password for my email provider, AGAIN?  This happens with google, aol, etc, etc, etc. The password is never wrong, that it's just something that happens with Apple OS from time to time.

    I'm having a lot of problems with firefox and cannot figure out how to get help. It all started when I updated to 13. I get all kinds of advertising popups, I can't play a game on FaceBook called Farm Town at all, and I get a popup of AVG on the cookies that I can't get rid of. These issues are causing me to use Chrome quite often, although I like Fox better. I've searched and searched how to get help and find nothing. How can I get personalized technical help? These problems will not occur in Chrome at all. Thank you.

    Do a check with some malware malware, analysis of programs on the Windows computer.

    You need to scan with all programs, because each program detects a different malicious program.

    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before scanning.

    Alternatively, you can write a check for an infection rootkit TDSSKiller.

  • A lot of problems at all the podcast shows we produce

    Hi guys,.

    We have a few podcast shows we produce and publish. The problems below seem to have an impact on all of these shows that I will focus on a specific show for reasons of readability and the confusion.

    The show is Smallzy surgery; https://iTunes.Apple.com/au/podcast/smallzys-surgery/id642832209?MT=2

    Over the weekend, people started to lose the ability to download episodes or subscribe to the show. Some of the things we noticed;

    1. Playing the episode in iTunes without subscribing Office is very well
    2. iTunes and other Podcasting software (test with Pocketcasts on my Android) consistently show too few episodes later the 1, 2 or 3 missing.
    3. Trying to subscribe to the show in iTunes on the product IOS error "the link provided is not a valid podcast." (Note the 1 post - reading in the EP in iTunes Office is fine).
    4. I can view flow very well as well as active access all connected (images and media files)

    So, I can confirm that there has been no changes to code on our site, the feed or any changes made to the storage at all. I can say that I had problems with the validation of the food (https://validator.w3.org/feed/check.cgi?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nova969.com.au%2Fpo dcast % 2Fshow % 2F292789% 2Ffeed) - looks like that maybe there is a problem with the first empty line? All foods seem to fall with it.

    It's our problem and I would like any help with this as its cause a lot of problems with both of our podcasts of the problems.

    Thank you

    Christian

    Note that we see a date of January 1, 2001 on playback of podcasts and I have no idea where this origin.

  • I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 (build) 2600 and have a lot of problems.

    Hi all

    I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 (build) 2600 and have loads and loads of problems. Windows keeps hung and everything I tried didn't seem to help.
    I brought this second hand from a company computer, I used to work and I don't have the original installation cd or rescue disk. I meet a lot of problems and everything takes forever to load and work. I was advised to run maleware, spyware, antivirus and defrag on the computer analyses and I did all that and nothing works. Also, when I tried to run the system restore it wouldn't let me, and when I try to run the scan disk after a reboot it does not work. As a last effort, I tried running SFC and it looked as if it was working, but then it asked me for the initial startup disk, that I don't have. so I tried to cancel it, but now every time that I reboot/restart my computer load SFC and I have to start the entire process. Also, none of my cd drives work. Please help me
    Also, I'm now a message that says minimum virtual memory is very low.
    I would be very grateful for any help or advice anyone can offer us on these issues. a million thanks in advance.

    Hello

    1 how long have you been faced with this problem?
    2. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?
    3. what exactly happens when you try to run the scan disk or system restore? You receive an error message? If yes then after return the exact error message.

    No software XP, Microsoft no longer offers that you will need to make arrangements for windows XP windows installation CD. You can check the question in the clean boot state.

    From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

    Reference:
    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
    1. click on start and then click Run.
    2. type msconfig and click OK.

    The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
    4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

  • A lot of problems with my CLIQ

    First of all, I would like to say that I take good care of my phone and there is NO damage or water damage done to it. I had my CLIQ since a few months now (about 3 months) and now I'm starting to have problems with it. The first problem I had was the keyboard backlight. Him DIA lit not I called customer service and they told me to do a master rest on it. So I did everything that I have said and still nothing has been fixed. So two days after I tried the reset again and nothing happens. After the reset, I tried to log in to my account, the second problem occurred. While session opening in my existing account, an error message comes up saying that my account was created incorrectly. I am so angry that I have to pay $400 for a phone that comes with a lot of problems. They must either replace my phone with a BRAND NEW one or another phone. Can someone help me please on how to solve these problems. My warranty has passed and I don't have insurance on this subject.

  • Received by mistake MS 2 accounts in my name - each linked to different services of MS and give me a lot of problems

    Hello

    When I got a new laptop a while back I've misunderstood something during installation and ended up with 2 MS accounts in my name.

    I tried to live with it, but it gives a lot of problems.

    One of the problems is that I can't access my a drive, because it seems to be linked to my account, which I can't access.

    I would go back to having only a single MS account - and without losing valuable data stored in one of the two accounts - perhaps ideally they should be merged?

    Help will be really appreciated
