• Upgrade to el capitan now cannot receive e-mail.

  Hello...

  I upgraded last night at el Capitan and welcomes most of my programs work. Who would have guessed that I would not be able to receive my personal e-mail? The settings are good. I can also receive mail business through the Web site account. Error message says it can't authenicate personal email. Why not??

  I am able to receive my personal email on my iPad but not on my iMac 2009. Have used the utility disk and CleanMyMac3. No errors. Email is online on RoadRunner, so the problem is on the computer and it seems with El Capitan. Any suggestions of what to do next?

  Thank you for your help,

  Darling

  There are three main types of e-mail account: Exchange, IMAP and pop. Is what type?

  If you are unsure, open Mail's preferences window, select the tab accounts and then select the account in the list on the left. Under account information, the account type is indicated.

• Recently upgraded to El Capitan, now Mail to automatically synchronize each account?

  There are two Macs that run my business (for my father & I, then we can exchange emails), when we recently moved our Parallels and the operating system, we have encountered many problems with our old email accounts.  They were all set up as accounts pop.  We have been informed of all our POP accounts change in IMAP, so we did.  Now, every email that comes in is synchronized between the two computers.  Whenever he receives an email on his e-mail account, it appears both our computers as a new email.  Should he read it in his computer, it automatically gets "read" on my computer.  We are also two other accounts that are more universal for our society, that many of our customers will initially write us to inquire information.  The same problem also happens with these accounts.

  Is there a way to reverse the trend?   Do we need to reroute other accounts to get sent to MY email?

  Any advice would be helpful.

  What you describe is exactly the operation when using IMAP accounts and that is what most people prefer.

  To reverse the trend, switch to the use of POP to access email accounts.

• iCal freezes after upgrade to El Capitan

  I've recently upgraded to El Capitan on my iMac and am now having problems with my iCal.  Whenever I run the application, iCal will freeze with a message "Retrieving data from the server", and then say it can not ("make sure that you are connected to the Internet") and asks if I want to try again, or try again later.  Most of the time it freezes just at the point of data recovery and I have to force quit out of iCal.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  Jon

  Jon,

  If you use iCloud, backup your calendars to iCloudand disconnect from the internet.

  Force quit calendar.

  Then paste this ~/Library text in the Menu Finder > go > go to folder... window and select 'go '. This will open the folder library users.

  Open the calendars folder that is located in the library folder and move all the files with "Cache" in the field of name on your desktop.

  Then open the Preferences folder in the same library folder and move the file com.apple.iCal.plist on the desktop.

  Open an outbound/inbound session or restart and open the calendar.

  What happens when you try to get El Capitan?

  Recently upgraded to El Capitan, I had that problem for Mail stop unexpectedly when I saw some posts.  I followed the steps and was able to remove the trouble messages.   Now I can't restore the mail window message viewer component.  When I try to catch the separator bar to go back to the left, only half of the small arrow icon and line appears, and it cannot be moved.   Can open the message by double clicking a message viewer.

  Hi there, alicefrompa!

  Thank you for using communities Support from Apple. From your post, I understand that you do not see the Message Viewer box which allows you to read your e-mails; only see you the Inbox that includes a brief overview of the message and are unable to restore access using the separator bars. I have had this happen to my own Mail app and am happy to let you know how I could fix!

  You are really on the right track - you want to roll your mouse over the divider between the Inbox and sections Message Viewer (which should now be on the extreme right edge of your mail window) and drag it to the left.  When you click on the receipt/Message Viewer box, the cursor turns into a line continuous black with a single arrow pointing to the left. When you see the cursor change, click with the left button of the mouse and (while holding down the mouse button in) drag the combination line / arrow to the left. You may need to drag a little further than before to get it. I had to hang mine almost completely in the middle of my Mail app before the display of the message box appeared.

  From there, you should be able to adjust the boxes to your widths you want as expected.

  If you are still not able to get the display of the messages visible after have try this, here are a few more things that you can do.

  1. Press command + O on your keyboard.
  2. Exit the Mail application, and then press on and hold the SHIFT key on your keyboard while reopening.
  3. Restart your Mac by selecting the menu  Apple in the upper right of your screen restart from the menu drop down.

  CarbonCopyClone on an external drive in an external enclosure.  Upgrade than SL ElCapitan leaving the intact internal SL.  Start externally using the option key pressed at the start, do what you need with the iPhone, then stop and do what ever you need to again with SL disc.

  Cludgy, but it works.  I keep my SL still functional because there iDVD, but use updated OSXs for other purposes.

  Hello nancy milano,.

  Thanks for this info and choosing the communities Support from Apple. I know how important is able to complete your update to El Capitan at a later date! The good news is that you can simply delete the "install Mac OS X" install app in the Applications folder on your Mac. Then you can open the Mac App Store when you're ready to update and restart the download from the tab updates or searching through the Mac App Store for El Capitan. This is a resource that explains the process of update more:

• MacBook Pro has started to randomly stop when it is on battery since the upgrade to El Capitan

  I have a MacBook Pro (15 inch, early 2011) which works very well on the Mountain Lion for a long time. I finally got round to upgrading to El Capitan last week: directly to 10.11.6. A few days later he just powered down without warning while I was working. He was so very well for a few days, but then made several times in the last 48 hours.

  I am moderately sure it happens only when it is on battery (it did not in the past hours 8 while that plugged). Whenever it happens, that there is no warning and the Mac then fine restarts (manually) - Although the clock resets always in 1970 until he can contact an NTP server. One of the curious side effects is that my PostScript fonts were blank on the screen in Excel for a few reboots yesterday but then OK once again!

  No hardware has changed. Major software change is only El Capitan and possibly an iStat Menus update.

  I have reset PRAM and SMC. I ran the short AHT. I disassembled the machine and clean the fans. they were OK, but the problem seems to occur when the Mac is hot.

  Spotlight and Time Machine sometimes seemed to be struggling for the upgrade, and I also saw rpcsvchost with 100% of a core for a while. The machine feels sometimes slow - but for the last 8 hours, it was very good. The only model that I put in place, is that it seems to occur only on battery; It's even happened then that the Dock (etc.) were loading after logging in after an unexpected shutdown.

  The other thing common is in the newspapers every time:

  Cause of previous stop:-128

  I scanned a number of related posts to aspects of it, but do not look at who blames El Capitan rather than material. Yet, many people reported this kind of problem after the upgrade... Coincidence?

  Any ideas?

  Thank you.

  Cause of previous stop:-128

  A negative stop code generally indicates a hardware failure. Have the Apple to assess your Mac. The fix may be as simple as a spare battery.
