My folders disappeared when 10.6.8 OS10.11.3. In any case, to get this stuff back in folders rather than a long list of files?

Where they disappeared?

Some changes that may be what you watch:

  • All of my files - this is the search folder that searches all your files in your home and presents them in one place. They were not moved, they are displayed just like they are.
  • Framed by default - the sidebar returns the values by default for all folders that you placed there will need to be added again.

Your files are stored inside your folder into subfolders such as Documents, movies, pictures, etc. They are all should still be there. You can add one of these folders to the sidebar by dragging them there, or you can use the tab of the sidebar in the Finder preferences.

You can access your file in the Finder with cmd-shift-h (menu go).

    When you send an e-mail using Outlook Express, I immediately get this message; "Some errors occurred while processing the requested tasks. Please see the list of errors below for more details". Unfortunately, there are no errors listed below and the green bar is frozen on the screen. The message remains in my Outbox and repeated again and again sending. There is absolutely no record and file sent in my sent box. TIA - Ernie

    You have apparent dbx file corruption. A common problem.
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and then create new folders to send and sent items box after having moved the messages you want to save to a local folder that you create.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the DBX files for the items in the Outbox and sent and delete them.  New ones will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    General precautions for Outlook Express:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • When I try to send an email to multiple recipients, I get this message: "there are non-ASCII characters in the local part of the address of the recipient. This is not

    I bought a new computer. When I try to send an e-mail to multiple recipients, now, I get this message: "there are non-ASCII characters in the local part of the address of the recipient. It is not yet supported. If please change this address and try again. "I don't know what are the non-ASCII characters, so I don't know what to do. I never had this problem on my old computer. Please explain in simple language.

    The 'local' part in the context of email addresses, the part to the left of the symbol @. The warning is a bit of a surprise, because in general the owner of a mail server is relatively free to specify the address format. There is a movement to allow the games to other characters to be used in the fields, so I'm a little disappointed to see that, apparently, e-mail does not support the latter in the local part yet or it can be your SMTP server that generates this message.

    ASCII characters ("American Standard Code for Information Interchange") are, on the whole, the English alphabet, uppercase and lowercase, as well as figures, common punctuation and case of things like the asterisks, obliques and media bars, but not of accented characters. But even apparently simple things like spaces and dashes have cousins who, at first glance, appear to be identical, but are not represented in the ASCII system. I am thinking especially nonbreaking spaces, dash and half-quadratin.

    But I don't know why your new computer must have caused these warnings.

  • When I click on address book I no longer get the slot to insert a name, instead a long list of names/addresses

    I sent this way new emails (not responses): click on address book. Place comes the space to insert a name. I do, find the name (among some close to it), select it and then click on "write". The result is an email address, which I proceed to write and send. But since there is one day, when I click on the address book, what appears is a long list of names and email addresses. It fills most of the screen of the iMac. And there is no space to insert a name.
    Without doubt, I did something stupid to get there. What have I done? And how I turn the tide?
    Thank you.
    Arthur

    This isn't answering your question on what is wrong.

    I think that the address book is a pretty lame place to start.

    Click on write or reply or forward and window of writing messages appears. pre-populated with the text of the previous message if it is a reply or forward.

    If you select the To: box and start typing, it will feature names in the address book corresponding to what you typed.

    If you really prefer to choose from a list, you can open a Contacts Sidebar which lists one of your address books. There are buttons to add Contacts selected to your message. You can drag and drop and use right click too. On a PC, F9 opens this sidebar, or you can use alt + v to get the view menu and choose the Contacts Sidebar in the submenu. I don't know how much it works on Mac.

    It is so easy to add multiple addresses. You can set them as Cc or BCC.

    Your method allows you to send a new message, but does not support the answer or transfer. It penetrates into all recipients regarding: and you have to change one by one, if that is not appropriate.

    You see why I think that the address book is a bad place to start from?

    If this alternative approach does not work then I suggest that corrupted address book. You have a recent backup to restore from?

  • emails disappear when deleted on the server even though the checkbox 'keep emails from this account on this PC' is checked

    Hello

    I would use my account in such a way that, when an email is deleted from the server (limited space) there is still on my computer.
    It did not work for a while, but since I have a new PC, I was not able to set it up again in this way.
    I use the IMAP protocol.
    Any toughts?

    Thank you very much

    Tamas

    If your mail acted as you claim in the past then it has set up a POP account and not IMAP. POP and IMAP are email standards and work of the same thing all the time. No e-mail client changes which.
    It is possible to have IMAP email account and configure the client as POP with some providers.
    Local folders is a standard account in all installations of Thunderbird.

  • Since the loading of FF4, I lost the option to save and restore my tabs when restarting. How can I get this feature back please?

    When I stopped my system sure FF4 does not give me the option to save my tabs and restore restart.

    Now, Firefox always stores the old session which you can access from the history menu by selecting "restore previous Session."

    If you always open the last set of tabs, another approach is the following:

    1. Click on the orange button Firefox, then select options to open the options window
    2. Go to the general Panel
    3. Change the setting "When Firefox starts" to "show my windows and tabs from last time '.

  • View the folders and files together in alphabetical order rather than the records first, then files

    It seems impossible to display files and folders together in alphabetical order.  Instead I see files first and then the files that I often (not always) want

    I have sometimes seen them together but have no idea how this happens.

    Ferrière

    Hello Ferds,

    In Windows Explorer, simply type an asterisk in the search engine to return all the files and folders in the folder parent.  You can click on any column heading to sort the results in this column.

    Mr. Doug in New Jersey

    It is a good workaround (thanks Mr Wizard) If you want to view the files in this way - but the procedure does not correct how Explorer files are sorted in the records themselves. And you will have to do it every time you viewed a folder because the search procedure would not automatically from window to window transfer and may not be assigned to do.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • I can get some future Web sites and others do not. When I try to connect to any site, I get this message and cannot connect

    The secure connection failed

    An error occurred during a connection to mail.yahoo.com. The peer certificate has an invalid signature. (Error code: sec_error_bad_signature)

       The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
       Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.
    

    The most common reason for the 'sec_error_bad_signature' many sites seems to be the shield of Web of Avast. Web Shield intercepts your navigation and filter, but to filter sites secure, it has "fake" certificates for Firefox. Avast have set Firefox to rely on its false certificates, but which seems to fail on a regular basis.

    To test this theory, try disabling scanning of encrypted sites. I saw these steps in another post:

    1. Open the Avast dashboard on an affected system.
    2. Select settings in the left side menu.
    3. Adopt a Protection Active.
    4. Click on customize next to the Web Shield.
    5. Uncheck the option "Enable HTTPS analysis", and then click ok

    If that solves the problem, but you want to filter encrypted communication, you need to import the Avast! signature in Firefox Certificate Manager of certificates, References tab.
