Hi,

I am using hi Sierra on my iMac 2013 and have no problems sending messages from 
any of my email accounts.  The only exception was my outlook account, but I was 
able to fix it by changing the password to match the password of my incoming

Re: Problems with outbound mail on El Capitan

2018-02-02 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Were they more specific about what they didn't like about SSL? You 
could look at the accounts tab / server settings. In there you should find a 
drop down list of servers for outgoing SMTP servers. The last item in that list 
will be edit. 

Then once you select the correct outgoing service you will probably need to 
click on server settings again to find out the details of the encryption. 
Protocol.

Hey Paul

Don't know if this will help but have you tried deleting the account in mail. 
Then when you go to add the account again, choose other? 

I've recently had a problem where apple mail wouldn't add my bt email account 
via the default Yahoo settings and I was at the point of giving up and going to 
ring up bt and explain what was happening. So as a last attempt, I selected the 
other option when setting up the account and that for some strange reason, 
worked. 

Might be worth ago. Also like you, the default Yahoo settings worked on my ios 
devices. Weird a? 

Hope you can get it sorted!

Problems with outbound mail on El Capitan

2018-02-02 Thread Paul Hopewell
Hello, 
I am running the latest El Capitan 10.11.6 on my late 2008 iMac. Note that this 
hardware does not support any more recent Mac OS releases.
I use Apple Mail which has worked perfectly for years but about 2 weeks ago 
outbound Email from my iMac stopped working with all outbound messages timed 
out. Strangely outbound Email via the same router and email servers still 
worked fine on my iPhone.
A protracted discussion with my Email provider revealed that this provider no 
longer supports the SSL protocol used by my version of Apple Mail, claiming 
that this protocol is insecure. Fortunately I can still send outbound Emails 
using a different email provider, but for how much longer?
Have any others encountered this problem? Does this problem happen on High 
Sierra? 
Assuming that Apple have fixed Apple Mail on High Sierra might they retrofit 
this fix to El Capitan especially because it is a security issue? 
Many thanks and best regards...

What to try with a frozen Mac Book Air with El Capitan?

2018-01-29 Thread Sharon Hooley
Hi,

When switching from Windows 10 to my Mac Book Air with El Capitan, I could, at 
first, turn on VoiceOver, but still heard the dead end sound when pressing a 
lot of the keys trying to get around.  But I didn't hear other feedback from 
VoiceOver, so I had to have sighted help to put in my passwords.  It could not 
connect to Apple.  Now it's either stuck or won't start up completely.  I 
believe this mac is either a 2014 or 2015 model.  Is there anything I could try 
before taking it back to Apple?

Thanks for any input.

Re: Need help creating signatures in El Capitan

   Open Mail, go to Mail preferences, Signatures. Select your email 
account from the table, or select All Signatures if you want to use the 
same sigs for all accounts. The rest will be easy to figure out. The 
next table is where you will create the names for each sig, the final 
table where you will enter the corresponding sigs.

Re: Problem editing calendar on El Capitan e3diting

2017-09-07 Thread Jonathan Cohn
Paul,

I don't generally mess with calendar entries in Calendar on my work El
Capitan since once a co-worker complained that I sent out 50 meeting
accepts. But in looking at it right now, what I find best is once the
appointment is highlighted, I press command-i (for info) and then I have no
difficulty tabbing around and editing fields.

Is this a standard iCloud calendar or another source? Also, is there a
specific view / sequence you have been using to view  the entry? I noticed
when in Month View, interacting did not always tell me anything about
individuals appointments on a specific day.

I'm on Sierra, and although I always open itext express in this way a,d would 
expect not to have to open it via contextual menu once I've done it a few

Marking an application as trusted in El Capitan

hello, 
I am running the latest El Capitan on my late 2008 iMac.
My security options are set to only open applications from the Mac App store or 
from identified developers. 
I have an editing application obtained elsewhere which I trust. Is it possible 
to mark this application as trusted so that I do not get error messages when I 
try too open files which were last modified by this application? Currently I 
have to go to system preferences and then security and then click the button to 
say that it is OK to open the file with the above identified application. This 
is all a pain and I want to avoid having to do this. 
Many thanks.

Hi Andrew,

If you have a bootable usb drive connected, holding down the option key for a 
few seconds then pressing left arrow once to select it should work.  HTH.

Downgrading to El Capitan

2016-09-28 Thread Andrew Lamanche
Hi Listers,

Is it at all possible to downgrade from OS Sierra to El Capitan again?  If yes, 
would it require a clean install of El Capitan and thus loss of all the data?  
Although my late 2010 Macbook air is listed by Apple as being capable of 
running Sierra, I wonder whether it is too much to ask of it.  It may be just 
on the border, and If I were not to be able to use Alex on it because of the 
crashes, I'd be inconsolable.  No other voice seems to come up to scratch.  And 
other voices seem to be more sluggish as well as interpret things somewhat 
differently.

If a clean installation of El Capitan were to be necessary, I have instructions 
on how to create a bootable El Capitan usb drive.  The only question mark I 
have is - as you restart your mac with the option key depressed in order to get 
a list of available booting disks - how can I choose the usb drive reliably?  
It's a matter of moving the right or left arrow key once to select a different 
disk to start from but I can't remember which way I need to move the cursor.  
Any ideas?

Andrew

Re: Application for making ringtones for iphone & android phones using El Capitan?

2016-09-27 Thread Bill Gallik
First of all, I need to correct a minor error I made in my original post; the 
name of the app is ringtone maker Pro.

As to the question about where it will begin creating the ringtone from a sound 
source, it does begin at the very beginning. However, there are very accessible 
features to allow you to start at a point in the sound source where you prefer. 
The app will also allow you to create a 40 seconds ringtone to as low as a five 
second ringtone/alarm. It may be less than five seconds, but I'm not sure 
because I have never tried to go lower than a five second tone.

The process is as follows:
– Naturally, you open up the app.
– You select a sound source – probably a song on your eye device.
– There is also a provision for recording a new sound source.
– You are then placed in a dialogue where you are able to select various 
features such as beginning point and endpoint as well as fade in and fade out.
– I think it is a very accessible as a well designed and usable app.
– When finished, you hit the save button.
– After saving the tone, there is a share button that will allow you to email 
the tone as an attachment.

Disclaimer: I have absolutely no financial stake in the successful marketing of 
this app!

Re: Application for making ringtones for iphone & android phones using El Capitan?

2016-09-27 Thread Jessica Moss
Do you get to choose the point where you want to create your ringtone, or does 
it just automaticly start at the beginning of the track?  I have this app 
called ringtones+, I think it’s called, that has over 500 prerecorded ones, but 
you can create your own as well, but it always seems to start at the beginning 
of the file, which I really don’t like, unless there’s a way to change that, 
that’s not accessible.

Re: Application for making ringtones for iphone & android phones using El Capitan?

2016-09-26 Thread Bill Gallik
I believe Ringtone Maker Pro is something like $1.99.  You do have to somehow 
get the resulting ringtone into your iTunes library on your Mac or PC, but this 
part is quite straight forward; after saving the newly created ringtone  you 
have an option to send an e-mail with the ringtone attached to an e-mail 
account that’s active on the target Mac/PC.  At that point you simply open the 
attachment MRA file and the ringtone is loaded into your iTunes library where 
it will be available to load back to your iPhone via sync.  

There are a couple of caveats I must include here:

1)  On a Windows PC you need to have iTunes set as the default program for MRA 
files so that opening the newly created/e-mailed ringtone will be loaded into 
the iTunes structures (yes, it will “magically” copied to the right locations).
2)  For Android phones you’ll need a conversion program (i.e., Switch) to 
convert the M4A/MRA file into an MP3 file.  This will require an additional 
software library to create the MP3 on  your PC.  Since I don’t have an Android 
phone I have no idea how to get a ringtone installed on said device, but as I 
understand Android can be linked to a PC as just another drive I should think 
this should be reasonably convenient using a COPY and PASTE.

I use an iOS app named ring maker Pro from the Apple App Store. You execute 
this app on the iPhone or iPad and then send it to your Mac as an email or text 
message attachment. You then open it on the Mac (or PC) and iTunes will load it 
into your iTunes folders where it will then be available to download when you 
do a sink from your Mac (or PC). When you get this app, it will be named rmaker 
pro rather than ringmaker pro.

Application for making ringtones for iphone & android phones using El Capitan?

2016-09-26 Thread CHUCK REICHEL
Hi List,
subject field says it all!
I need an Application for making ringtones for iphone & android phones using El 
Capitan?
I have a new studio "ringtone" project that needs to be able to play on iphone 
& android type phones?
I  understand that for iphone you change the .m4a to "m4r, is that all you half 
to do?

as for the android type phones I believe they use mp3 ring tones or .oog files.
I know the ringtones must be shorter than 40 seconds.
I'm using Avid's Pro tools 12.5 so editing is not the issue creating the proper 
format for any phone is the goal! :)
not sure what to get?
any apps that work on el capitan out there?
Thanks
Chuck

RE: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-23 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hey Scott,

 Not sure about calling ramy old, but yeah good work to all with helping.

 Makes things easier for all when we pitch in and assist.

 Yeah installing macs is great,

I was a windows user till a few years ago but now I do more with the mac OS 
than windows 
Although I'm still a heavy windows user.
But my boss now comes to me for support on his mac and he's been using them for 
20 plus years.

 Go figure it's just so easy to pick things up.Hopefully this time next month 
I've got a mac OS cert under my belt.

Hey Ramy, congratulations on getting squared away.  DOn’t hesitate to ask 
questions here it’s a pleasure to help you out and soon you’ll be an old hand 
and able to help the next person starting out with the Mac.

Good news is here that this whole process is accessible to us.  Can’t do this 
sort of thing with Windows nearly as easily although that hopefully will change 
soon.

Let us know how your doing and great on your success.

 Reinstall I think drops the install over the top of the old one if the
 disk isn’t cleared first, this may have changed more recently but the
 above is the steps I take to be sure the disk is clean.

Ramy,

Hi,

Great to hear you've got it working,

 And yes I forgot all about that issue.

 I have to found that vo wont automatically speak the drive table when it comes 
up.

 I had to turn vo off and on to get it to see things correctly.

 It's an easy fix when you know about it.

Hi,

There's no way that it should be taking that long.  In the window that's on 
your screen, what sorts of things are announced?  Dimmed buttons?  Progress 
bars? Anything?

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-20 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

I believe that it should, although, I can't remember for sure how the Mountain 
Lion installer was.  Note, that this is going to download and install the 
Mountain Lion (10.8.*) installer, and you'll need to go to the App Store once 
again and click on the Upgrade to El Capitan (10.11.*) package to get El 
Capitan on your Mini.  Sorry, this didn't go as smoothly as it normally should, 
just your not so good luck it seems.

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-20 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

It sounds like your HD is fine, it has just been erased.  You should do the 
following:

1.  Restart it again with cmd-option-r.  If you have access to a wired 
connection instead of WiFi, that would be better, but not imperative.
2.  When given the choices, choose Disk Utility.
3.  Press on the Untitled volume in the table.
4.  Erase it.  Make sure though to name the drive "Macintosh HD".  If you 
VO-right through the screen, you'll see a field where this can be set.  Do this 
prior to pressing the actual "Erase" button.

After the erase/reformat is complete, quit the Disk Utility by pressing cmd-q.  
This will take you back to the main screen with the Recovery.

5.  Select Re-Install MacOS, then Continue.
6.  Follow the prompts.

I believe that in one of the screens, there is a request for you to choose the 
disk for the installation.  Normally, it will automatically choose your 
internal Macintosh HD, but things don't always happen as they should.  Make 
sure that you choose this HD then the "Continue" button should be able to be 
pressed.  As in your original issue, it's possible that when your Apple ID is 
required, that dialog may not be visible.  Remember to check with the Window 
Chooser to see if something is waiting for your input.

Good luck.

2016-09-20 Thread Ramy Moustafa
Hello all:

finally, I found my friend, came to my studio to give me something, I
asked him to llok to screen, he found a screen, asking us to select
network, of cores the voice over was not speaking in this screen at
all.
I select the network with Keyboard, I inter my network key, and the
recovery starts.
it will install the Ox Mountain lion.  I ht agree, then I have only
untitled volume. just untitled, there is no way to choose it, no way
to press VO+space or something. so, what shall I do to continue?

RE: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-20 Thread Simon Fogarty
HI Ramy,

 Just reading more of this email and I see you say the el capitan installer had 
downloaded.

I'm just wondering if you are able to start the machine up in to a running 
state at all?

 If so then the el capitan installer files are under your applications folder
Command shift A to get in there.

Running that or the APP file in side the dmg will start the process.

If as Tim commented things might be correupted 
Then my question is do you have any content on the machine that you don't wish 
to lose?

I prefer in these situations to wipe my HD and have the install run from 
scratch rather than an update of the OS over a possibly corrupted existing 
install.

Hope this makes sense.

RE: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-20 Thread Simon Fogarty
Hi Ramy,

 Just a quick catch up here,

 If you have El Capitan on your mac mini and you use Command + R for the 
recovery console then you will get el capitan installing to your machine as it 
is a recovery.

If however you have an earlier OS such as Mavericks or Yosemite 

Then that is what your machine will install using the recovery console.

It will only recover what you have on there and wont give you an updated OS 
using the recovery.

If you can download the el capitan installation media from the app store then 
it will start the auto installation / update once that file has downloaded  and 
then you just follow the prompts through the installation process.

If as another option you have a USB installer media device then you can do the 
following.

Shut the machine completely down.

 Hold down the option key and while holding this turn thepower on,

 Keep holding option I personally hold it for approx. 30 seconds just to be 
sure.

 Then your machine will start up with any bootable drives showing  
The problem here though is this is not accessible with voiceover,
 But if you can get someone to select the correct installer then it will start 
the installation process for you.

Hope this helps.

Simon F

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-19 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

No problem.  I hope that you don't mind that I'm slow at responding sometimes.  
Too many things going on.  Anyway, whether it's the cmd-r or the cmd-option-r, 
you only need to hold it down for about 3 or 4 seconds.  As soon as the Startup 
Chime sounds, press the key combination.  Hold it down for the 3 to 4 seconds 
and release.  The wait is after the release.  If the cmd-r works, it's likely 
ready in about one minute if your Mini has an SSD and probably 2 to 3 minutes 
if your Mini has a spinning HD.  If using the cmd-option-r, which starts up 
from Apple's servers off in Internet-land, then the wait is usually much longer 
before VO is ready to talk.  Again, no need to hold down the key combination 
for more than the 3 to 4 seconds.

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-19 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

The cmd-r needs to be down as the Startup Chime is sounding.  It will usually 
take a minute or two before VO is available.  It's possible though that your 
system got corrupt in the last attempt.  In that case, use cmd-option-r 
instead.  This will start your Mac up from the Internet.  It may take longer 
for VO to come up in this situation.  So, give it some extra time.

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-19 Thread Tim Kilburn
Hi,

That's not normal behaviour.  Try pressing cmd-q to Quit the installer.  See 
what it says.  You may need to start over since there was such a long time 
between the initial installation startup process and the Apple ID entry.  
Usually shouldn't matter, but you should also be seeing a progress thing by now.

Hello:

ok, finally, I did it, with your help,and I signed in with my apple id.
Thanks allo for helping.
now, I  have  voice over saying that osx has no windows, and even the
vo+f2f2 says that no windows in the widnow chooser menu.
This happened after I signed in.

Hi,

Yes it does have the FN key.  It's located where the Insert key usually is on a 
Windows keyboard.  So, the top left of the group of six keys where the Home, 
End, Page Up, Page Down and Forward Delete, just above the Forward Delete key.

keyboard settings are set to have the Function keys behave in a specific 
manner, the FN key is required along with this key combination.

Re: Installing a fresh copy of El Capitan on my Mac mini

2016-09-18 Thread Scott Granados
Select disk utility, select the macintosh hd or what ever you named your 
volume, erase it, exit the utility and run reinstall.

Should be good to go.

Reinstall I think drops the install over the top of the old one if the disk 
isn’t cleared first, this may have changed more recently but the above is the 
steps I take to be sure the disk is clean.

If you boot in recover mode it will either download what it needs or install 
from the recover partition.  Part of your hard disk is partitioned and has the

Everything you need should be already inlace or automatic. YOu’ll use your

RE: A Quick Question About Sorting Finder List View in Either Ascending or Descending Order in El Capitan

Hello Mark,

In List view, you need to interact with the table then place yourself in the 
column you wish to sort. The command is then VO-Shift-\ to go into headers, 
then VO-Space to do the sort, and VO-Shift-\ to get out of headers.
The first time you press VO-Space while in headers will sort in one direction, 
and another VO-Space will sort in the other direction.

Cheers,

Anne

A Quick Question About Sorting Finder List View in Either Ascending or Descending Order in El Capitan

Hello Everyone,

So, today I inserted a USB drive in to OS X El Capitan.  

Upon opening the drive, in Finder, I switched to list view.  

Try as I may, I could not discover how to sort the files via
ascending/descending order.  I could organize them by name, date created,
etc but there did/does not appear to be a way to change the order, via
VoiceOver.  

However, as I post this question, I do seem to remember that there used to
be a way to do this in Mountain Lion.  So, perhaps, I just need a reminder
on how this is done.

All replies welcome and thank you.

or who failed to read a subject line.
Thanks, its my birthday, so I am off to prepare for my performance.
As I positive side note though.
There really are resources for Simon's situation.  If things had not 
wondered in the rose garden I could not ask for those.

2016-08-19 Thread Karen Lewellen

Not hostel in the least.
In  fact your subject line illustrates perfectly what a question looks 
like seeking troubleshooting.  My subject line sought a contact name.
I also wrote my reply rather late, so I did not project emotion in any 
intentional  way.
I asked for a contact that  others have shared previously.  I referenced my 
frame of context, WACG, with pa positive side meaning I can connect Simon 
with people in NZ who are aware of how those rules may apply to his work 
situation.
 You illustrate here what troubleshooting requests consist of,  and 
nothing in my first question included that information.

Sorry if you felt intensity where none was presented.

Karen,

To answer your question, yes, I did read your original post.

To be honest, your reply comes across as being a bit hostile.  I am not
certain if this is intentional or unintentional but, regardless, I ask that
you keep in mind two very important aspects of this community:

1.
While we do enjoy discussing various aspects of technology, our primary
purpose is to support each other in the use of Apple products.
Consequently, it is not unreasonable for anyone to assume that, unless
otherwise specified, when one describes an unresolved challenge, that one is
referring to, at minimum, an Apple product, most likely being Mac OS.

2.
While, sometimes, the members of this community take time to wade through
all of the messages in order to obtain solutions to various problems, more
often than not, we do so in order to help others resolve their challenges.

When I first saw your message, I was in the middle of a project so could not
give it the time I thought it deserved.  However, I never forgot that you
were unable to enjoy an MP3 file that you purchased.  So, as a result, I
resolved that at the first opportunity, assuming that a solution had not
been discovered, I would attempt to reproduce your scenario as I understood
it, to either confirm your results or determine a workaround.

I think you would be quite surprised at the number of people in this
community who attempted to reproduce your problem in hopes of discovering a
solution.  The fact that the original thread turned a bit harsh, is
unfortunate and probably inhibited some from posting so as not to get into
yet another proverbial firefight.

As E.T. correctly stated, "To be perfectly blunt, while you did not say you
were using a Mac, you also did not state otherwise. After all, you posted to
an OS X/iOS group ..."

Karen, regardless of the net real-world result, I and others took the time
to try to help you.  This is no small thing and should not be taken for
granted as, quite frankly, you were not taken for granted and, subsequently
not ignored.

In conclusion I'll add that I am really happy to learn that your Amazon .MP3
problem was not the result of some kind of bug with an Apple product, all
things being equal.

Mark

were using a Mac, you also did not state otherwise. After all, you posted to
an OS X/iOS group ..."

Karen, regardless of the net real-world result, I and others took the time
to try to help you.  This is no small thing and should not be taken for
granted as, quite frankly, you were not taken for granted and, subsequently
not ignored.

In conclusion I'll add that I am really happy to learn that your Amazon .MP3
problem was not the result of some kind of bug with an Apple product, all
things being equal.

Karen,
   To be perfectly blunt, while you did not say you were using a Mac, 
you also did not state otherwise. After all, you posted to an OS X/iOS 
group. So you indeed led some astray.

I agree with Mark.  This thread has veered so dang far off the mac topic, I 
don't even know what the heck we're talking about anymore.
