The Western Digital hard drive inside of my MacBook has been loud lately, so I requested that they send me a new one. I received the new one, and I need to send them my old one within 30 days. Now, I'm faced with the dilemma of erasing the hard drive so my information won't be in the hands of someone else. So, what is the best way that I can erase the entire drive before sending it over to Western Digital?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Get My Mail Back After Erase & Install Of It?

Apr 24, 2012

I am not using Time Machine as Genius Bar at the Apple store told me it was best not to (I was continually having errors and so GeniusBar erased my hard drive and reinstalled Lion). They said to then manually drag over documents onto my hard drive, avoiding the Applications, so no possible errors could be dragged back onto the clean hard drive. 

But now I have Mail and none of my folders and previous accounts. Of course I can re-setup my accounts, but then they will just try to redownload all of the millions of emails I had before. None of the very organised folders I previously had, sent messages, etc, etc. 

Info:MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Hardware :: BootCamp Expired - Merge / Erase XP Partition Back?

Jan 7, 2008

I have XP installed in my Intel Macbook Pro in the separate partition created by boot camp. Recently while I was running on XP the computer crashed badly and XP system seemed to have been damaged and I can't boot as XP anymore. I would like to simply erase the XP partition and merge it with the main drive. But the problem is that Boot Camp got expired and I can't use the application to do that. Can anyone tell me how I can do that?? I am guessing that Disk Utility would be the one to use but I want to make sure I know what I am doing before I screw up anything.

MacBook Pro :: Computer Keeps Restarting / Sending Error Reports When On The Internet

Aug 24, 2014

My macbook pro has been acting weird for a week or so. I'll be on the internet and then it will randomly shut down safari or google chrome and send an error report message. This also just started happening with my iPhoto and iTunes as well. Sometimes my computer will just shut off completely and restart with a message saying there was a problem and it had to shut down. It seems like there is some bug or maybe a third party add on I need to get off?

Sep 22, 2009

I want to set up an account in Apple Mail that only is used for sending out messages (SMTP). The mailbox exists, but I want it POP-ed by another method.I figured out how to suppress fetching email automatically (Preferences > Accounts > Advanced), but that still fetches whenever I click the "Get Mail" button.Can I configure a mailbox that's simply unable to check mail, but can send it?

Applications :: Apple Mail Sending Jpgs Tiny - How To Know About It

May 11, 2010

A coworker in the office often sends me images for ads and jpgs with apple mail that come from her come through much smaller than they were sent to her, and they come in the body of the email instead of as an attachment. I've watched her do it and she is attaching correctly. PDFs come through just fine. Even when she just forwards an email with a jpg, it still comes through small and in the body of the email. Is there something in the preferences that needs to be changed? Any idea what might be happening. I use gmail myself so I'm not sure what to tinker with.

MacBook Pro :: Apple Mail Keeps Sending Email From Another Address?

May 9, 2012

When I got my Mac, I added two email addresses (both Gmail server but different "@ portions" i.e. @gmail.com and @___.org). I've deleted the @___.org email because it didn't matter whether I sent it from one email or the other, they both end up in sent items of mny @___.org email. So even replies from my [URL] address gets sent to the other email.I've deleted the other email and I'm pretty sure I didn't link the two accounts on Gmail so I'm not sure what's happening.

Apr 16, 2012

Today I took my MacBook to the apple store for an erase and reinstall due to about 20gb of space was missing on my HD.  My latest backup was done the day before I went back to Apple to reinstall Lion.  After I restored my data from the backup, the address book app and the app store app are both missing.  My address book data is on iCloud so I'm not that concerned about the data but I would like to get the app back on my MacBook.

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Apple Mail Sending Multiple Copies Of Email

Apr 11, 2012

Recently, my Apple Mail has been sending from two to six copies of email, timed to the same minute. I've taken to using Thunderbied (which I don't prefer) to avoid it. My theory is that if I can reload Lion it might cure it, but since Lion only comes as a download, I don't know how.

MacBook :: Gmail Stopped Sending Messages On Apple Mail

Jun 2, 2014

I went to send a message from my apple mail (gmail account) and it won't send.  Says smtp.gmail.com is offline.  I didn't change any settings but when I went in to check them, they were all gone.  I added back smtp.gmail.com under description and my complete email address under server name.  I then went to advanced settings and made sure the Use default ports (25, 465, 587) was checked and also Use Secure Sockets Layer was checked.  I chose Password for authentication and added my complete email address for user name with my password.  It still says I'm offline and won't sent a message.

OS X V10.5 Leopard :: Apple Mail Combined With Imap Gmail Not Sending Attachments?

May 6, 2012

I have been working quite happily with Mail and an imap gmail account for a couple of years until recently.  Now I can no longer send attachments and if I try to forward an email that has a bit going on in it like a group-on email or something similar it won't send that either.  I get a message Cannot send message using the server [URL]:(my emailaddress)[URL]Sending the message content to the server failed I have searched for answers all over the net, have tried google help pages that suggest I remove my email address from the outgoing server details but NOTHING works. Today I finally gave up on Apple Mail and tried entourage - same result in that I couldn't send anything with attachements but a different error message. 

I hadn't changed anything when it stopped working and it can't be the settings because every now and then I get an attachment through.  There is lots on the net but I haven't found anything that works or all the stuff I am reading is really old. and also, just to finally drive me over the edge I got sent an email with an attachment today that didn't come through onto my mac.  If I go onto gmail via safari there is my attachment.  In Mail, it doesn't even give me a hint that it's there

MacBook Air :: Apostrophes Received As Question Marks When Sending From Apple Mail?

Jun 5, 2014

I'm using a Mac Air, OSX 10.9.2. I've configured Mail to work with my gmail account. 

When sending emails adn using apostrophes (e.g. We're, they're, it's) the recipient (on a windows machine running Outlook) sees all the apostrophes as question marks. 

Rich Text vs Plain Text doesn't address the issue.
