OS X Mavericks :: 10.9.4 - Mail Shows Wrong Message Body

Aug 20, 2014

OS X 10.9.4 / 3.2GHz Quad-Core / 16GB DDR3
Mail 7.3 (1878.6)
IMAP Server at InMotion Hosting 

I continue to see messages in my mail folders that have the header information (From / Subject / Date) from one message in the message listings, and the From / Subject / Date of a DIFFERENT message in the message preview. 

This is NOT Google.  The IMAP server is from InMotion Hosting.  On the server, the messages are accurate: the From / Subject / Date information is attached to the message body it represents.  It is only in Mail that the information gets scrambled. 

I have used the Rebuild for this mailbox, which usually corrects the problem.  On occasion, I have to delete the mail account from Mail and add it back in again to force an accurate rebuild. 

Info:
Mac Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2)

Hardware :: Wrong Date Shows On Files And Flash Drive?

Dec 26, 2009

I have 2 Ibooks: one has OSX and the other is on the highest version of the old OS9. Something odd happened the other day with a new USB flash drive I started using. I was transfering files (word docs) onto a flash drive. When I inserted the flash drive in the old iBook, each file (and document) showed the date Dec 9, even though the docs were from Dec. 16. When I inserted the flash drive in the newer iBook, it showed the correct dates for each doc. I tried this back and forth, and found the same thing. Yet, all the dates are correct on everything on my hard drive on the old iBook. It only is a problem with this new flash drive I'm using. It never happened before.

OS X :: Changing The Time Zone/clock In The EFI?

Oct 19, 2009

I bought my Macbook from the US, but now I've returned to my country and since then ,I think, when I'm not connected to the Inet the clock is way off.

In the PC's the system clock can be easily changed in the BIOS and if I don't have Internet the clock is currect. +- a few seconds aren't that big of a difference.

And here is an example:

I put my laptop to sleep. Go to school, but there is no WiFi, It's ,let's say, 12:34PM. The clock in Mac OSX, Windows 7 shows 10:15 AM. (The times are for example). As soon as I go online, the clocks are adjusted via [URL] or [URL] depending on the OS. And the clock shows the currect time of ,in this example, 12:34 PM.

Is it possible to set the time zone/clock in the EFI boot system similar to the BIOS in the PCs?

I'm currently using rEFIt as boot manager and there there is a Shell console.

Mac Pro :: Mac Pro Showing Wrong Time After Time Machine Restore?

May 24, 2009

i've got a niggling problem that i'd like to get sorted. I've searched the forums, but can't find anything that relates exactly to my problem.

I restored my pro from a time machine machine backup and now it displays the time incorrectly (-1hr). 'Set date & time automatically' is checked in system prefs which makes the problem even weirder. I'm using the Apple Europe sever too.

I've read somewhere about deleting a hidden file to solve the problem, but there isn't enough information to execute.

PowerPC :: IBook Clock Won't Hold Date Or Time

Jan 26, 2007

My school has ~15 iBook G3's(600 MHZ, 128 MB RAM, OS X 10.2.8) that are suddenly unable to hold the date or time. They are plugged in constantly, batteries in, and are always on. I know that with the Pismos, there are PRAM batteries that you can replace, but if I read Apple's support pages right, there aren't any in the iBooks. How does this happen? How easy is the fix?

OS X :: Difference In Analog And Digital Clock Time Display

Apr 2, 2009

I just bought a new MacBook Pro 15" running Leopard 10.5.6, and the clock is being weird. Last weekend we put the clocks forward an hour here in the UK and I suspect this has something to do with it. What's happening is that my clock is displaying an hour earlier than it actually is, and if I put it into manual mode rather than relying on the Euro Apple timeserver, that fixes it but then the time on my Mail is wrong - it says each message was received a hour before it actually was.

Then it gets really odd - if I change the timezone to London BST and then check the time & date panel, the digital clock still reads an hour early, but the analogue one beneath it displays the right time Then if I close the panel and re-open, I find it's reverted to GMT and both clocks say it's an hour early.

MacBook Pro :: Clock Time Loss After EFI Firmware Update?

Mar 22, 2012

I recently applied an EFI firmware update to my MacBook Pro 15" (early 2011), which is currently running OSX 10.7.3.  Coincidentally, my clock now loses several seconds per hour (in both sleep or screensaver mode), so after several hours, I lose about a minute.  Of course, I could manually correct the clock via System Preferences' Date/Time synchronization.  But I shouldn't be losing this much time. 

Info:
MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

OS X :: Wrong Date And Time - Unsecure Connection

Oct 30, 2009

Over the past 3-4 days I have been experiencing a few problems with my MacBook Pro. I purchased it back in May so I haven't had it too long and I have not started to have these problems until recently. Sometimes when I turn on my MacBook the date and time will be wrong. It will be set to Dec. 31 2000 and the time will be out of whack. Also, when I try to use my wireless router to connect to the internet it will give me this odd page and it will say my connection is unsecure and then it will have a big button that I can click that says get me out of here.

OS X :: Time Machine Selecting Wrong Partition?

May 30, 2010

So I've partitioned my external 1TB hard drive by half. My intention is to use half for time machine and half for some "heavy" storage.

My external drive is connected via Airport Extreme.

What I am having trouble doing is telling Time Machine, which drive to select. I've already went through one super long initial back up, but once it tries to back up on the wrong partition, it wants to back itself up again!

How do I ensure that Time Machine backs up to the same partition?

When I'm in my Time Machine Preferences I can only select the "My Book" drive, not the individual partition.

ITunes :: Play Time Is Wrong On Audiobooks?

Jun 6, 2012

When I download audiobooks, they come in parts, i.e. CD1, CD2, etc. To make life easier, I join them back into ONE file so when I play it on my iPod, it's listed as one song rather than 100. Make sense so far? 

When I join them, the play back time is off. So if the whole audiobook is 12 hours, but chapter 1 is 45 minutes, the play time for the entire audiobook, that I joined, is 45 minutes. When I play it on the iPod, it will play PAST the 45 minute mark, but I cannot rewind or fastforward because the ticker just stays there. On iTunes, it will not play past the 45 minute mark. 

I've tried to manually change the time in iTunes but it doesnt change. Does anyone have experience with this/tips to help? I have a lot of audiobooks that are really affected by this.

Info:
iPad 2, Windows7

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Time Machine Restored Wrong Data

Mar 25, 2012

OK - the history here is the previous Macbook was replaced because of system problems, including many files with FUTURE dates (eg. 2037). Apple store agreed after repeated issues, they would replace the machine. We did a final time machine/capsule backup before taking it in. 

Got the new Macbook and ran the Migration assistant to restore all data from the time capsule. The data was not correct, and I suspect it was something to do with the future dates. 

I can open the sparse bundle backup file and see the correct backup information, but I have no option when I open Time Machine to pick ANY previous backups. This all started with Macbook problem, and I'm really thinking they should figure this out - but assuming they wont, how to safely get the 'real' information recovered from Time Capsule.   

PS - OS X Lion on both systems - Macbook Pro 15" i7, 750GB

MacBook Pro :: Battery Time Remaining Indicator Works Wrong ?

Oct 28, 2010

I am new (sort of) to owning a Mac, I bought my macbook pro a couple days ago, so far I havent used it much for other than surfing the net. My question is regarding the Battery time remaining indicator, first of all it changes alot, so i never truly know how much time I have left. Is this normal? It can say anywhere from 3-6 hours left when I am at 90% battery. Usually at 90% battery it says I have about 4.5 - 5 hour left. I thought I was supposed to get up to ten hours of battery? The percent indicator seems to go down fairly fast like 1% every few minutes. Is this Normal? Should I take my macbook over to the apple store to be checked out?

OS X :: Unable To Set Time And Date / Time Date Settings Wrong

Sep 30, 2008

So I shut down my computer earlier today for the first time in weeks. I restarted it and then left for a few hours for dinner.

I come home and I look at the last time MobileMe Sync and Time Machine did their things. They say they did them at 7:45. I look at the clock on my cable box and on my iPhone, both say 6:45.

Weird that the MacBook's time is wrong. I go into Time Date settings. I see that when the MacBook does the "Auto locate where you are so that we can set the appropriate time zone, etc. the MacBook things I'm in Rexford, Idaho.

I haven't been to Idaho in about 25 years, and my MacBook has been sitting in Southern Kalifornia for the last one year since I bought it.I've tried to have the MacBook auto-locate again, and it keeps finding me us in Rexford, idaho.
