Can't delete certain emails from Mail. Instead, I get the message "An error occurred while moving messages to the mailbox, etc." The problem appears randomly.

I had the same problem, and it was solved by going to the Mailbox menu and selecting "rebuild."

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, I can't delete/move emails using Mail app

I upgraded to Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard and having problems with my Mail application.
The long and short of it is that I cannot delete or move emails from my Inbox. When I select an email in the preview panel and delete it, it disappears, but when I select the Trash folder, it isn't in there. And when I go back to my Inbox, lo and behold, it is back there again, as if I had never deleted it. The same holds true when I try to move an email from my Inbox to one of my iCloud folders.
Emails come in to my Inbox just fine.
And I am able to move emails from one iCloud folder to another, however.
And I do not have this problem when I access my email via Iphone, ipad or icloud.com. In fact, when I delete an email from my iphone, it gets deleted from my Inbox on my Mail app.
I looked in Mail Preferences, and I have one Account set up: iCloud IMAP. Is that right? I use me.com for my email.
Any ideas here?

This means that at some time you had the iWork ’09 trial installed. You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

Can i delete certain songs from 1pod nano

can i delete certain songs from my ipod nano?

It depends on how you sync your iPod, if you sync with playlists you can remove a song by clicking it then clicking delete, if you sync by artist, album or genre you can't delete certain song. You can't delete them on your iPod.

Can't delete certain photos from my iPad!

So this is the situation;
I was on vacation on a friend's house in Colombia and sync'd my iPad to his PC and sync'd a folder with 400 family photos.
When I got back home (Florida) I realized I wanted to delete 2 specific photos.
Obviously the original folder with the photos is in another PC in another country, so I can't delete thos 2 photos on the PC and re-sync the iPad.
... How. Do. I. Do. This?
And is Apple EVER going to fix this awful problem?!

You can't delete photos synced from a computer directly on the iPad, only by removing them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing. As you don't have access to that computer, then you could use one of the photo transfer apps from the App Store (e.g. Simple Transfer , which also also has a free 'lite' version called Simple Photo & Video Transfer) to copy them onto your computer, delete the ones you don't want from your computer, and then sync that folder onto your iPad.
Note that only the contents of the most recent photo sync will remain on your iPad, so if there are any other (synced) photo folders/albums that you have on your iPad that you want to still be on there after re-syncing, then you will need to include them in the sync.
As to it being an 'awful problem', the assumption is that if you sync photos from a computer then you should know what you are syncing and not be copying over photos that you don't want - syncing from a computer that you don't own/have continues access to is probably not that regular an occurrence. But if you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

"Your email account" means to tap on the name of your email account. Whatever it is listed as in the settings.
In my mail settings, one of my email accounts is a Comcast account. I tap on the Comcast name and it brings up this window.
Then I tap on the arrow under the Outgoing mail server smtp setting to get to the next window.
In the resulting window, I then tap on the arrow next to the smtp server under the Primary Server setting.
That brings up this window in which I check to make sure that my user name and password have been entered correctly. If those items are missing, enter them in the appropriate fields and then tap done.

When I delete an email from my hotmail account in the 'mail' application on my MacBook Pro, it is not deleted from the same 'mail' application on my iPhone 4s which my hotmail account has also been added. I thought my emails were synced over iCloud?

It is so frustrating because I cannot understand what is wrong. When I add an event to my calender on my iPhone it appears in my calender on my MacBook which is perfect and very convenient. The same thing occurs with reminders; everything syncs perfectly here. However when I delete an email from my MacBook from the 'mail' appliaction it doesn't delete from the same built-in application on my iPhone. This is extremely frustrating as I have to delete the same email twice on two different devices. I'd appreciate any feedback that would help resolve this problem!

Calendars (and contacts) can "sync" between your MBP and your iPhone through iCloud because they really live on the iCloud servers and the two devices are clients. iCloud can accomplish much the same trick for email messages because the email really resides on iCloud email servers.
If the email resides on some other server, that server is responsible for whatever syncing will be done. IMAP servers like the iCloud servers are built for such syncing; other mail servers may or may not be. iCloud would not be involved with email other than iCloud email.
I understand Hotmail has been changing how their email servers are accessed. Check with Hotmail support for any changes you may need to make to keep up.

I can't delete certain emails

I have noticed of late that I cannot delete certain emails. I get a message you can see below. Any ideas of what's going on. BTW it's not just one email, it's several.

I did a rebuild of all my email accounts and that seems to have fixed it. Someone posted that on another thread and it worked.

Can't delete old email from iCloud

Forgot password of [email protected] that related to Apple ID but I do remember Apple ID password
then I have changed the email address to [email protected]
and deleted email address [email protected] from Apple ID
changed iTunes code to [email protected] ok
but I still can't delete iCloud email address [email protected]

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

How can I sync specific photos from folders instead of syncing the whole folder to my iPad?(1 gen)

So I recently synced a few folders from my PC to my iPad 1 and there was a few photos I did not want on my iPad, so when I tapped the photo, the trash button wasn't there. I looked up why that was happening and discovered it was because synced photos can't be deleted from the photo library. So I ask my question, how can I sync specific photos from folders instead of the whole folder? from iTunes to my iPad. If there is not a way for me to sync specific photos from folders, how can I delete the photos I don't want from my iPad?

As King_Penguin has already explained, this isn't possible with the stock Photos app.
As far as photo syncing is concerned, I also recommend PhotoSync, which is an excellent photo (and video!) synchronization tool, should you want to stick with the stock Photos app on the iPad. Should you want something better (Photos is a pretty limited app without sorting, EXIF displaying etc. capabilities and with HUGE storage usage), you'll need to take a look at third-party apps. I too recommend Photo Manager Pro, it's IMHO the best tool. There's a complete roundup of image viewers for iOS at http://www.iphonelife.com/blog/87/all-one-photo-viewer-roundup-70-price-drop-bes t-image-viewer ; you might want to read it.

Every time I try to view my email from homepage icon I get a message that says "cannot connect to server" ? Any ideas?

I can't retrieve my email because every time I do a message pops ups that saying that it cannot connect to the server. This iPad is for home use only.

Hello Armandingo,
I'd suggest taking a look through the following article, as it provides information and troubleshooting steps that can help get Mail moving on your iPad.
