Apple mail is hung up in Mac os Mavericks - osx-mavericks

I have recently upgraded my mac system from MacMini to MacBook Pro. Previously everything is working fine but after upgrading Apple Mail is hanging up and stops working.
Here is the step that I have done for backup my mails:
I have copied the V2 folder from my old MacMini and pasted in the new MacBook Pro V2 folder.
Please help me to solve this issue I am in trouble now.
Thanks.
See the attached screenshot.

From what I am reading it is NOT the fact of the computer change (Mini to Pro) but rather the OS X change to Yosemite (you are not running mavericks based on the style of the mail window). So my best guess is that the mail database you are coping is formatted differently between the mail systems.
SOLUTION: All (that I know) Email systems store their email data on their servers so if you delete or remove (or just move to the desktop) the 'V2' folder your provider should send all the past data to your computer. If you don't want to use this solution you can also just check your mail in your browser.
EX: johnappleseed#gmail.com
Every email john has ever sent or received has been processed by gmail.com.
So if he has any problems he can visit mail.google.com and log in to directly use and manage his account.
I have struggled with apple's iMail (on my MacBook Pro late 2009 running OS X Mavericks, soon to be Yosemite) in the past and I personally thing they did a poor job and revert to just using the website or using their iOS version.

How do I connect MacOS Lion via samba to Ubuntu?

I have an old iMac running 10.7.5. I am trying to connect to my Ubuntu file server (running 22.4.1 LTS) to save a huge amount of data before discontinuing the iMac.
Every time I try smb://192.168.1.5, I get "There was an error ... please check the server name or IP address...".
Using the same method and IP address on my Mac mini using MacOS 13.1 gets me connected without issues.
I tried using "cifs://192.168.1.5", but got the same error.
I also tried going to System Settings to turn on File Sharing (although this is for sharing files that are ON the iMac) because I read that turning this off and on might fix this issue. This is not the case.
Since I am not well versed with older Mac systems, I am unsure on how to solve this. Any ideas would be welcome.

Docker Desktop for Mac Monterey: pop-up about privilege access to install networking components

I had Docker Desktop installed for Mac Catalina last year, but I haven't used it until today, a day after updating to Monterey (from Big Sur) (I'm on a Mac Intel) when I downloaded the latest Docker Desktop dmg file (~500MB), which had me drag the icon to the folder, which I then chose to replace the existing .app file... but when opening the file (in /Applications), I get this new pop-up:
I've tried to search what this is actually going to do, and I can't tell; I use Cisco AnyConnect VPN sometimes for a project, and I'm afraid there'll be a conflict... but ultimately, I don't know what exactly I'm giving access to or if it's actually necessary. I just want to try Docker with Laravel Sail.
I know macOS over the last several years (since Catalina really) has changed filesystem stuff a lot and I end up going down StackOverflow rabbit holes trying to get things to work, so I'm hoping someone else knows how this works or has made it work and can advise.

OS X 10.10 install can't verify (Registered developer)

Well this is embarassing...
I'm a college student with an apple developer's license.
I'm currently stuck in the CMD+R recovery partition.
I installed 10.10 successfully earlier today. Then I got the bright idea to format my drive and do a clean install of Yosemite. When I clicked the 'Reinstall OS X' button in the recovery screen I recieved a message telling me that my computer cannot be verified with apple. I'm guessing this is because the recovery drive cannot recognize or download/install my developer certs.
Any ideas on how I can fix this? I'd prefer to install 10.10 but I'll roll back to 10.9 if absolutely necessary.
EDIT:
I solved my problem by doing an internet recovery (Cmd+Opt+R at startup). From there I installed 10.8 and re-installed 10.10 from the mac app store.
If you downloaded it from the developer site, you should have went through redeeming a code step, then Yosemite should be in your purchased app list. Are you sure you are using the account you redeemed the code? If you get the image from someone else, you probably want to redeem the code from the developer center.
I was able to get a clean install by booting to an external Mountain Lion disk and running the installer from there. More info: http://themainthread.com/blog/2014/06/clean-install-yosemite.html
I solved my issue by re-installing 10.8 onto my main partition and updating to 10.10 from there.
Since apple has not released OS X Yosemite to the public they can't verify the software because the recovery mode disk utility is for non developers, the software is not in the apple system yet. You should just make a bootable usb and do a clean install of OS X Yosemite.
Items to try:
1) Repair Permissions (better if booted into Recovery HD)
2) Resync time with Apple's Servers via System Preferences
...if all else fails, you can nuke and pave, or create a bootable USB installer.

Problems Submitting Mac App To Mac App Store

I'm trying to submit a new app to the Mac App Store but I'm getting this error every time I try to validate my bundle.
"The bundle is invalid" Apple is not currently accepting applications built with this version of the OS."
I'm using Xcode 5.0.1 on a brand new MacBook Pro which came with Mavericks preinstalled.
What's going on? Surely this error message can't be right.
I haven't got a fix for this yet but I do have a work around..... use another Mac.
Oh wait; you haven't got another mac. Well this is what I had to do to get around it on the one it wasn't working on.
The problem seems to be that Apple don't like my particular ProductBuildVersion, which is 13A3017. I've got one of the brand new MacBook Pro 15" Retinas released Oct 2013. I'm not sure if that build version is just for these, or just for retina ones or what.
But anyway,
Use this command in terminal
sudo nano /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist
change the ProductBuildVersion from 13A3017 to 13A603 (which is another Mavericks buildVersion)
Archive the app again, (I also restarted Xcode), and resubmit it.
When you're done switch the version straight back to what it was before or anything could happen.
I've submitted a bug report to Apple so hopefully this should be fixed soon.

Mac requirement for Delphi XE4 Professional + Mobile Add-On

I can't find information on what are the system requirements for Mac for the mobile add-on for Delphi XE4 (Professional).
My understanding is that XCode is still required to sign the app binary and to deploy it on a test device and/or App Store.
Our Mac is so old that the minimum requirement of OSX for the latest XCode won't even install.
I'd like to know if we need to have the Mac upgraded to accomodate this.
Ok - found the answer: https://www.embarcadero.com/products/rad-studio/rad-studio-data-sheet.pdf second page:
PC running Windows connected with an Intel-based Mac, with 2 GB RAM
or more, running OS X
10.8 (Mountain Lion) or 10.7 (Lion) over a local area network using a SSH, VNC or Windows file sharing solution
Apologies & much appreciated if you've attempted to help me:
XCode will still be required, so of course your Mac system will have to be updated to be able to support it.
The documentation for XE3 will give you the minimums requirements for that version, and you should require XE4 to at least require those minimum requirements. As it doesn't seem your existing system meets those, you can probably be sure it won't support the requirements for XE4.
You can also contact Embarcadero Sales with pre-sales question, with the email address you'd expect (Sales at the companyname.com).
