OS X V10.7 Lion :: Mail - Can't Trace Mail.plist
Jun 13, 2012My internal HD packed up on me a couple of months back. I've replaced but now I'm looking to rebuild my mail (folders and emails). Â
The old HD is now in a USB SATA Hard Drive docking station and I can access (what seems to be) most things.Â
I cannot trace the com.apple.mail.plist file which I presume I'll need to rebuild things. I've reviewed other posts on here and noted the usual location of this file but it is not showing when I search. I have seen conflicting info - one which says that I need to access 'Users - Library - Mail' and it'll be located in there (but I can't even find the Library folder under 'Users' as below:
The second option is going through 'Library - Preferences' and locating it there but, again, I can't trace the relevant file. All I can see is the following (and it won't open to allow me to see what is in it):Â
If it's not showing there should I presume that everything is lost? I hadn't moved or altered anything prior to the HD failing so one would presume it should be there.Â

Applications :: Mail Replying From Wrong Email Account / Sends Mail From Other Account
Feb 12, 2009MBP, OS X 10.4.11, Mail v2.1.3.
I have more than one email account set up on Mail and the strangest thing happens and I can't find out how to stop it.
Here is the problem:
- I have 2 accounts, 'Account A' is for my partner & 'Account B' is for me.
- Someone sends an email to 'Account A' (my partner) and CCs 'Account B' (me) into the same eMail.
- If I click reply from 'Account B' it sends the eMail from 'Account A' which is my partner, when it should be from me.
I have worked out that this is because 'Account A' was originally sent the eMail in The 'To' field as opposed to the 'CC' field in composing the reply eMail. I know that I can manually change the 'From' field every time when replying to an eMail but it becomes an nuisance. I forget to do it when quickly replying as I consider Mail to reply from the account that I'm reading the email from.
I have gone to the compose section in the preferences and there is an option for changing this when composing a new email but nothing when replying.
OS X :: Any Possibility To Trace Stolen MacBook With IP Address?
Nov 22, 2009My laptop was stolen last week (I just received my new one not too long ago). I have the IP address of my stolen one. Is there any way I can somehow trace it to where my old laptop is? Or do anything to get any information?

Jun 3, 2010I have just lost my user account that I normally use. It happened after I changed my name for my user account in the Finder. I clicked Get Info and changed the name from Helen Andersson to only Helen. and after that nothing is the same and i cant go back either that I know of. When I start the computer now everything that I had on my desktop and in my Itunes, Icalendar, addressbook, and Aperture are not there. I have found them (well at least what i had on my desktop and my itunes but not the other information), so they are still on the computer but I dont know how to get back to my normal user account.
When I check my System preferences Account I only have one account so its not like I made a new one and have two. But I can also see that the one I am using now that has nothing on it is made today.
So please if anyone can help me get my iMac to go back to the old user and all its settings the same way I would very much appreciate it. Because this user has nothing and I have to start everything from scratch even my internet settings I had to download again to be able to go on the internet. This user has nothing.

OS X :: Trace A Computer Via The MAC Address?
Oct 12, 2010I "sold" my MBP this weekend to someone who turned out to be a scammer. He paid me $1250 for my MBP, of which $600 (all in one hundred dollar bills) was counterfeit. I'm still in a little bit of shock - the kid seemed legit. Very nice, talkative, etc. I even held up the bills to the light to make sure the watermark was present on the bills - it was. (My bank later told me that it was a really good counterfeit....didn't really make me feel any better.)
In any case, I have the MAC address of my notebook. Is it possible to trace it? Am I screwed? I'm not even upset about the missing $600 - I'm more upset that this shaddy guy could potentially get away with this and continue scamming other people, who possibly might be totally devastated if they were scammed out of that kind of money.

View 1 Replies View RelatedApplications :: Import Mail Account Settings From Thunderbird And / Or Outlook Express Into Mail?
Jan 31, 2010Is there away to import mail account settings from Thunderbird and/or Outlook Express into Mail? [that is mail.app, to help any one searching later on as Mail is too common a word to search for]. I've imported all my messages correctly but don't know how or if it's possible to import my account settings. Also: I'm in the process of migrating all my e-mails / mail accounts / settings and mail rules from Outlook Express to Mail [Mail.app]. I have successfully got all my e-mails across. I have also managed to convert all the e-mail addresses in the 50+ mail rules, as stored in the Windows registry, from hex into text.
Some of my rules have tens of e-mail addresses which if I had to add in each address separately would be a nightmare. Is there away of block adding in e-mail addresses to Mail? Also is it possible to manually edit the mail rules preference file(s) and insert the e-mail addresses into that? I'm aware I have to manually recreate the rules themselves but that's not so difficult. It's the adding back in of all the e-mail addresses that might be, given the large number that exist.
OS X V10.5 Leopard :: Name Of POP Account In The Finder?
Mar 28, 2012When trying to deal with an e-mail issue involving an upgrade from OS 10.4 to OS 10.5 on an Imac Intel i noticed a funny thing about the POP accounts. In [home>Library>Mail one user had "POP-(user name)@(name of incoming server)" whereas two users had "POP-(e-mail address)@(name of incoming server). ISP provider, domain name and incoming server is the same for all three accounts (users). Why is there a difference between them in the Finder?

Apr 13, 2012I have an early 2011 MacBook Pro running OS Lion (10.7.3) and in the last two weeks I face the following problem with the Mail application and my Yahoo mail account: although the account appears in the side bar of the application and it will search for new messages when I launch the Mail app, it doesn't load any messages and I also realised that all Mailboxes of the named account are blank! The messages appear normally when I reach my account through the Yahoo page! I tried to remove and re-import the account in the Mail app, but it just worked for two days and now the Mailboxes are blank again! I have no problems with the other two mail accounts I reach through the same application (both POP accounts).

OS X Yosemite :: Mail Couldn't Discover Account Settings For Mail Server
Dec 1, 2014I've added a Google Apps account to OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 few weeks ago to use it in Mail, but I removed it last week. I tried adding it back during the weekend, but I've been getting this error: "Mail couldn't discover the account settings for the Mail server domain"Â
This comes after I click "Set Up" and tick Mail only. I don't have 2 step verification enabled for that account and I didn't change any account settings since adding it last time.Â
Also, I can still see the account (as well as other Google account that's currently not added to OS X) in Accounts.plist located in: ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailDataÂ

Applications :: Use Entourage Over Mail Due To It's Robustness - Installing A New Mail Account?
Nov 23, 2009I have decided to use Entourage over Mail due to it's robustness and more features than I can possibly ever use. Here the question:I am coming from a PC using Outlook 2007. I have done my research on how to get my mail off my Outlook and importing it into Entourage.Fine, great and dandy. I haven't performed it yet but I have a couple of questions before running with this.1. I have MobileMe account. Installing that into Entourage was relatively easy. Done.2. Installing a new "mail" account (POP or IMAP), I'm going to assume is the same way BUT if I install this, will it mix with my MobileME? What I am expecting to see is that it would store separately in it's own section. What is right?
