GMail - iPhone cleared out inbox / other folders & won't receive new mail.

My GMail has been working fine on my iPhone, but yesterday the iPhone cleared out all my folders without asking and will no longer receive any emails. But I can still send messages, and my GMail account via the web browser is still intact and receiving new mail. My iPhone is definitely online. Why? Help!

Mine is working fine. Try deleting the Gmail account from the iPhone, then re-adding it.

    Try running a power cycle = hold the power button till the phone shuts off then re-powers and you might try running system cache clear it's not like a Factory Reset but it can sometimes straighten out phone issues.. If the issue persist you might removing the Sim Card do it with phone off use care when removing leave it out for 10min. then reinstall..
    Give these suggestions a try let us know if it Helped. b

  • How do I only receive new mails on iPhone

    So, I have succesfully set up my hotmail account on my iPhone. The only problem is that I receive my oldest mail first and since I have like 2000+ old messages in my inbox it will take a while for me to get to my new messages.
    Is there a way to set up the mail program so that it only receives new mail?
    Thanks

    The iPhone's email client includes no such setting and I'm not aware of any email client that does.
    Utilize another mailbox or mailboxes with the email client used on your computer to transfer some of these messages to that you want or need to keep.

  • I want to know how to take music out of other folders in my iTunes...

    I can't take music from other folders on my iTunes and put them on my iPod. I want to know how I can do this, because I feel like I have tried everything but I may not have tried everything. Can someone tell me how I can go about doing this; taking music from another folder and or file from my iTunes and put them onto my iPod.

    Your post is somewhat confusing. If all of your music is in your iTunes music folder, it should sync to your iPod. If you have music on your system's HD that is not in iTunes, you will need to use the "add file or folder" function in iTunes to bring these other files into the iTunes music folder.

  • Mac Mail won't fetch new mail NOT GMAIL

    I'm having a frustrating issue with mac mail?  I've been using mac mail for year with my work account with NO issues.
    For some reason all of the sudden when I hit the "Get Mail" button or when it automatically checks for mail it is not pulling in my new messages.
    IF I use the "synchronize "account" or if I close and re-open mac mail, or if I take account offline then back online it WILL pull in my new messages.
    I think this is the same issue they were having with gmail?  This seems to have stated when the new mac mail update came through on Friday.  It seems like it fixed gmail but messed up something else?
    Is anybody else seeing this issue?  Is there anything I can do to fix it or will there be yet another fix?  I'm trying ot rebuild my e-mail account now.
    Jason

    i'm having this same issue. mail 'dings' indicating there is new mail, but it does not appear. i can find it at the .mac site however... it will arrive in my mail inbox some hours later...

  • My iphone is out of warranty and the ear receiver is not working

    My iphone is out of warranty, the ear receiver is not working as i cant hear anything from it. Only when i put the phone in speaker mode or plug the headphones i can hear, if i take it to the apple store will it get replaced for a refurbish one?

    I have tried most of the stuff that i have found in here. I held the home button and sleep button until the apple cameout, i plugged in and out the headphones, i blew air into the headphone jack, i restored my phone. I dont think it has to do anything with the earphone jack because when there are hear phones and i bring the volume up or down it doesnt say headphones in the volume bar. Any other suggestions guys? do you guys think that ill get it exchanged at the apple store without a warranty?

  • On my iPhone 5 I am having a problem sending / receiving e-mails and am receiving the message: the user name or password for "imap.gmail" is incorrect. Despite many attempts I am getting nowhere. Does anyone recognise this problem?

    I am having a problem sending/receiving e mail messages on my iPhone 5 and cannot access my account. The message I am receiving is: The user name or password for "imap.gmail" is incorrect.
    I do not know what imap.gmail is. I have also lost data which was contained on my diary which I believe is linked to the problem. Does anyone recognise this problem?

    imap.gmail is the Google mail server. It doesn't recognize the password that is stored in the iPhone. The problem is that the password or email address you have in Settings for the gmail account is wrong. If you changed the password somewhere else that is the reason. You need to go to Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendar, tap on the gmail account and enter the correct password. You also need to change it for outgoing mail in Settings.

  • How do I just get the Inbox messages to show in the new mail notification?

    I've setup Thunderbird with Gmail and it works like a charm. The only gripe I have is that the new mail notification seems to grab a selection of unread emails from different folders and often it's not showing the relevant new emails in my inbox. Esp. the All Mail folder seems to cause doubling of message notifications but it's not the only one .
    All I'm interested in is my inbox for new mail notifications. Is there anyway to modify the current behaviour?

    That's not true. If you archive an email from your inbox without labelling it it will simply remove the inbox label and then the only way to get to it is through All Mail.
    Note that All Mail is not only folder that has this issue. If you auto-label a message with 2 or more labels the exact same problem occurs.

  • Won't retrieve new mail

    I am running Mail.app 3.6 on OS X 10.5.8. I have three IMAP mail accounts set up.
    Last night, Mail.app stopped pulling in new mail. You can click the Get Mail button, it goes and looks (it all looks normal in the Activity Window), and returns with no new mail. Yet if I quit Mail.app and check with any other client (webmail, Alpine, iPhone via IMAP), I see lots of new mail.
    My laptop had been up for a few days, so I closed mail (had to force-quit) and rebooted. No luck. I also repaired all permissions. I have tried deleting one of my INBOX.imapmbox directories. It quickly recreated it, with the same mail. Nothing new.
    All three mail accounts are on different servers, running two different IMAP servers (Courier-IMAP and UW-imap). I have checked on one, and when mail quits, it closes all imapd processes. There are no other mail connections open, so I don't think it's a locking issue. I don't think it's a server issue, because it's happening on all three of my mail accounts.
    Mail works fine with all the mail that is visible. You can delete messages, etc. If you log in via webmail and mark a message as unread, that change is reflected in Mail.app.
    The short of the long: Mail.app just won't see any new mail since about 11pm last night.
    Help! Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    Seth

    After trying lots of other ideas (including removing a mail account and recreating it), I have deleted my preference files and my Library/Mail folder. Starting over completely from scratch seems to have fixed it.
    I'm disappointed that I could find a better solution.

  • Mac Mail won't receive new messages

    I have three devices, an iMac; an iPhone and an iPad.  I also use iCloud (but I hate...or don't want to have to go to the web and login to iCloud there to read my mail...otherwise, what's the point of having Mail on all of your devices, right?!?). 
    There are so many discrepancies between the three devices synching my Mail.  I have emails I read on my iPad and then deleted some.  They show as deleted/read on my iPhone, but they still show as unread on my iMac.  Additionally I noticed that my iMac hasn't received any new mail (including the mail I can see on my iPhone)...for an hour!  I've clicked the "send/receive" mail button a dozen times, but nothing...I can't find a place in Preferences that should correct this.  (And yes, my internet connection is working...)
    Any help is appreciated.  Thanks. 

    Thanks, Ernie... I didn't realize we could control click in the inbox. It just showed me how much space I had used up in each folder.
    On a whim, I deleted the account, ran a disk utility, then rebooted. Then I re-added the account, and so far, it SEEMS to be working alright... Got my new email, am able to send out--it seems to be working now.
    Thanks!

  • E72 and Gmail problem (I can't receive new mail)

    Greetings,
    I hava Gmail account set up in my Nokia E72. I can send mail and I can receive mail which is dated till 23.02.2010. Mail that came in my inbox after that date and new mail I can not receive on E72. What could be a problem?

    You could try re-sync-ing your Nokia Messaging account to see if that works. I forgot the exact term though but it's somewhere in the options...or settings... It will basically remove all the email data in your phone and re-sync to your connected mailboxes fresh.
    You will not be able to download a separate Mail for Exchange application to install in your Nokia E72 because the MFE functionality is integrated (built-in) with the Nokia Email Client that is part of your phone OS.
    In other words, your Nokia E72 came pre-loaded with the ability to use MFE. When you set up an email account, there should have been an option for you to select "MFE" which will work, if your email account provider has an Exchange server for you to connect to.
    Sometimes, with generic email addresses which is by default a POP3 type connection for example, you may have to manually set up the MFE connection. So the way I do it is to trick the phone into thinking my email address is non-standard by typing [email protected]... This will prompt the phone to ask me for an email type.
    The only way to "update" your MFE is if the latest software update for your phone has improvements to the email client software.
    As for third party mail software, it will vary because phones don't have the same operating system. There's no universal compatibility with one software. Every mobile software developed must be tweaked to work with different models and brands.
    It's not an easy thing to do and consumes time & money. So most developers will focus on the devices that are the most popular among consumers...  If Nokia E72 isn't listed as a compatible device, then you will not be able to use free mail software. You can email the software company that develops the mail software you are interested in to see if they have plans to include E72 as part of their compatible devices
    "Try not. Do or do not, there is no try."

  • Apple Mail won't retrieve new mail from Yahoo IMAP

    I've been using Apple Mail with my Yahoo/Rogers account via IMAP for months with no problems.
    Starting a few weeks ago, new mail in the Yahoo Inbox does not get delivered to Apple Mail.
    I know there's lots of new mail - I logged into mail.yahoo.com with Safari, and see lots of unread messages in the inbox.
    It's not a password problem.  The Connection Doctor shows 'green':  access to both the IMAP and SMTP servers is successful.
    I have many other IMAP folders configured, and they all sync fine between Yahoo and the Mac.
    Apple Mail is configured to use imap.mail.yahoo.com, port 993 with SSL.
    I've tried:
    - rebooting the iMac.
    - quitting/restarting Apple Mail
    - taking account offline, then back on-line.
    - Ctrl-clicking on the Inbox and forcing it to Synchronize "Yahoo Mail".
    - calling Apple. I spent an hour on the phone with a pleasant tech there. He concluded it's a Yahoo problem.
    I found one thing that fixed it temporarily: last week I deleted my e-mail account from Apple Mail. Of course, this deleted all my mailboxes in Apple Mail. Years of messages vanished.  Then I quit Mail, restarted it, and configured it anew with my Yahoo account credentials.  Mail then proceeded to log on to the Yahoo server and sync everything over IMAP. It took quite a while (over an hour), but eventually everything in my Inbox, Sent folder, and a couple dozen folders ('mailboxes') of saved messages reappeared. Including all the unread mail that had been waiting on the Yahoo mail server.
    That was a week ago, and my Apple Mail inbox had receiving new e-mail with no problems until two days ago. Once again, new incoming messages are not getting synced. This 'fix' (delete all messages and resync from scratch) is not a practical solution.
    Any ideas?
    (iMac has 10.8.5. Mail is 6.6)

    @riiich,
    As I last reported, I temporarily 'fixed' it by deleting the account from Apple Mail and creating it again. Thanks to IMAP, Mail then synced all the mail folders (took a couple of hours - I have a lot of mail folders), and then it was working again.  For a few days.  Then the problem returned - new mail arriving in my Yahoo Inbox would not sync to the Inbox in Apple Mail.
    I spent hours trying to resolve it. Changed password. Rebuilt Mail's index. Ran Disk Utility on my hard drive. Etc. Etc. I have a lot of server-side folders (>30), and thought that maybe Apple+Yahoo were screwing up due the large number of folders (a.k.a. mailboxes) to sync.  So I migrated a lot of the folders off the server (setting up new mailboxes On The Mac) in which to file my messages.  That didn't help. Meanwhile, I started using Yahoo's webmail interface so I could get my new mail.  Then one morning (perhaps a week later), the inbox spontaneously started syncing again. I had done nothing the day before - it just started working overnight.
    Based on this experience, I concluded that the F***-up is entirely on the Yahoo side and has nothing to do with my Mac nor Apple's software. My ultimate fix has been to abandon Yahoo Mail.  Prior to Christmas, I moved my mail account to another service provider who provides IMAP. Then configured my Yahoo account to forward all incoming mail to the new server (which has a new e-mail address). Since doing so, I've had zero problems. All messages sent to my old Yahoo address get immediately forwarded to the new mail server, which has been syncing to Apple Mail with no problems at all. 

  • Mail won't get new mail after a while

    Running Mail app on my Powerbook on OS 10.5.8. I use this as my work computer. More and more frequently I find that Mail is not retrieving my messages after being open for a while. The main account is a gmail IMAP account. I am also running Mail Act-On and MailTags, which are key utilities in my workflow.
    I try clicking on Get New Mail, or "Synchronize IMAP Account," and taking all accounts offline and then taking them online, but these do not help.
    Quitting and relaunching Mail sometimes helps, but not always! Is there anything else I should try? This is making me crazy!

    I think you should open the Mail folder -- Home/Library/Mail -- and locate the file named MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded3 and delete it, after having Quit Mail. Open each POP account folder in the Mail folder, and make sure there are no other files of similar name within these folders.
    Deleting this file, and relaunching Mail will result in its downloading whatever messages remain on the server, and may give you some duplicates, but this import file will be renewed and fresh.
