How do I add a folder to my Archive folder in Mail?

On previous versions of Mail (on my Mac, NOT on my iPhone), I was able to move whole folders into Archive, but I can't seem to do that anymore.  When I move a folder over the Archive folder, nothing happens.
After looking around, it looks like I can only move single messages or groups of messages into the Archive folder, but that can't be right, can it?
I want to keep my archived emails sorted by the folders they exist in already... can someone please help me do that?

The only way you can now add additional folders to the 'Archive' folder/mailbox is to create the new folders using the specific mail application.
If you have Apple Mail pointing to a Gmail account, you will need to access Gmail web interface and create the folder there.  Likewise for Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail, etc.
Not sure if this will work for Apple Cloud mail accounts.
I have a @sky.com account and accessed the Sky webmail interface, created the new folders (Archive/*****) and reopned Apple Mail and there they were under the Archive folder :-)

    how do you add a folder to email files

    The folders on the desktop are widgets. Hit the app button in the top right hand side to take you to the app and widget drawer. Once there tap on the word Widgets at the top of the screen and scroll over to the folder widgets. Press and hold on the folder you want and it will then turn into a movable item you can drag to your desktop.

  • How can I add a folder of music to my library?

    How can I add a folder of music to my library?

    I am mystified as to what drag and drop folder into iTunes 11 means.  My music is in a folder in "My Documents"/Windows 7. I can copy and paste the individual folders of music within the back up folder, and drop them into the music folder in iTunes.  But, this is ridiculous.  It was easy and promoted user enjoyment to have the ability to add folders from wherever on your computer, into the iTunes library. Why did Apple reduce the users enjoyment, by flubbing up a pretty good music file system?
    Work around?

    how do I add a folder of photos that isn't in iphoto to imovie

    You can drag them in from the Finder. I think you will have to drag one photo at a time, but you can experiment.
    If you put into iPhoto, you can place them in an album and drag the album in all at once.

    how can i add subfolders in the mailsystem to classified my mails similar to outlook. Somebody with idea?-

    You can't do it directly on the iPad. If your email account is setup as IMAP, create the folders on the server (either in Outlook or webmail) and then the folders will appear in iPad Mail.

    I have added folders in the past and I can't remember how I did it and I need to add another folder, how do I do it?

    If you're using OS X 10.5.8, you'll have to go to icloud.com, sign in and open Mail, then click the "+" at the top of the folder list on the left sidebar.

  • How do I add a folder to the library into the smart playlist called "recently added"?

    Hello Apple users! I really miss the old version of I-tunes that allowed you to manually add files and folders from your hard drive directly into individually created I-tunes playlists with nothing more than copy and paste. I don't mind that the new version requires some additional steps, like having to go through "add file/folder to library" onto a temporary "recently added" sub-master list, from which I could then transfer them to the sub-folder playlist categories afterwards...except that I can't! The I-Tunes Playlist window does not have a "recently added" category already there, so I have to manually create one ("new smart playlist"), and then create a set of "rules" to then have a writeable clean slate onto which each new "add file to library" could go...This works only for the first folder I add, but then after I copy them to their sub-folder destinations, I can't delete them to make room for the next batch, nor does the next batch even go in...I've then tried deleting the current "recently added" smart list and creating another, (with a new set of rules) , and then tried adding the next group using "add files to library", only to have the original batch come back up again and the new batch not...Apparently, I can add all the files and folders I want, but they only go to one place, which is the main master list under "library" and they all get mixed in together and are virtually impossible to find!
         I have about 20 playlist folders on my C drive under "My Music"...How do I get them onto I-tunes anywhere except scrambled in random order?

    Boca Babe,
    Just add them to your iTunes library, and then sort as you wish.
    Don't try to add things directly to Recently Added.  Recently Added will pick songs up automatically, e.g., all songs whose "Date Added" is in the last X weeks.
    If you would like to add files or folders of songs directly to a playlist, create a regular playlist, not a smart playlist.  Then open it and drag the files/folders into it.  They will be added immediately to that playlist, and to your library if they are not already in it.

  • How can I add a folder of MP3s to Final Cut so they show up in the media browser?

    I have a collection of royalty free audio clips in MP3 format. I would like to get them to show up in the media browser, so I don't have to go to the finder each time to get them into a project. Any idea how to do this?

    If you want them in the Music and Sound media browser specifically, rather than in your Event Library, then you could easily just add them to your system's iTunes library, then access them via FCP X:
    http://help.apple.com/finalcutpro/mac/10.0/#ver549f1ed1
    Or if you want to avoid adding / organizing them in your iTunes library then you can just drag and drop your already organized MP3 folder directly into the Sound and Music media browser pane inside FCP X and the app will add that folder to the browser inside a new "Folders" category.

  • How do i add a folder to the mailbox on iphone

    I am a new user.  So very inept.  I have my mailbox...there are three folders...INBOX, SENT, TRASH... how do I add new folders????  I like to organize things and save them a while as needed...

    You cannot add folders on the phone. If you have an Exchange, MobileMe or IMAP email provider you can create folders on the server (or another client) that will then appear on the iPhone.

  • How do I, Add a folder to BIS Email account

    Hi!
    I use a cpanel email account (IMAP4) on my blackberry apart form my gmail account, 
    Now i already know from http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB05133 that it isnt possible for my blackberry device to automatically sync the sent items folder, but what I want to know is that is there any way to add to the list of folders that are currently being synced to the blackberry? (By default it only syncs Inbox and Spam) I want to add another folder say 'work' which does not go to my inbox, and hence does not come to the phone. 
    Also, I am using dovecot as my imap server so my folders are not children of my 'INBOX' folder!
    Many thanks  
    ~Salil Jain 

    I don't know Dovecot, but it sounds like you're going to need to first have that email you define as "work" email directed to that "work" folder on your server. The thought being that the RIM server looks at your Inbox for new mail messages to push to the BlackBerry handheld. If the email is first directed away from that Inbox, then it shouldn't get pushed.
    In short, that's going to be a function of your server, not the BlackBerry, unless I am missing something you are asking.

  • How do I create a folder in mail?

    How do I create a folder within a mail account?

    If you are on iOS 5 and it's an IMAP type account then you should get an Edit button at the top of the list of folders that you currently have on your email account. If it's a POP type account or if you are still on iOS 4 then you won't get the Edit button.

    I did a clean install of Windows 8 on a fresh HDD and installed iTunes 11 and can not seem to find out how to add my drive Z where all my music is to itunes.
    There is no Add Folder option and it looks like I only see a few albums from the cloud.
    Not a fan of this new version at all.

  • How do I add a folder to my mailbox acct on my iPad?

    How do I set up a folder in my mailbox account so I can move my messages to the specific folder?

    I don't know what/where you've got your email account, but you need to sign into your account on, for example, Safari, and if it's a IMAP account there should somewhere be the option to create new folders (older POP based accounts don't allow extra folders, so they won't have they option). The instructions will probably vary one email provider to another so I can't give you exact details - but for my account I have an 'add' button (you may have 'add' or 'new').
