How do I delete emails in Mail App that are no longer on the server?

HI,
I have configured the Mail App on my brand new iPad to receive emails from my provider GMX.net. It is a POP3 account. The emails stay on the server until I fetch them with Outlook 2003 on my PC. After retrieving emails with Outlook they are deleted from the server. That is what I want. But the emails stay in the Mail App on my iPad. I also can’t delete emails with the iPad on the server.
How can I do that?

If you are accessing emails from multiple devices, you are better off using the IMAP protocol. Then the devices sync with the server and they are all looking at the same information. With POP, you are going to get your emails spread about, some on Outlook, some on the iPad. It could get very confusing.
By default, the iPad will not delete from a POP server. Instructions for changing this are here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3228

    How do I delete items from menu bar  that are not part of the OS

    Perhaps you could be more specific, as it is a little difficult to answer your question without any details.  I can give you some general ideas though.
    On my machine there are a few applications that have installed items into the menu bar - I'm assuming you are talking about the icons on the right hand side of the top bar. To remove those items, I would generally need to uninstall the program that created them. To do this varies a little from application to application.
    Also, sometimes an application will have preferences that allow you choose if you want to display the item in the menu bar.
    So, my general advice would be that you need to identify the application that placed the item there, and remove it from your computer.  If there is an uninstall program for that application, I would run that in the first instance.
    If you don't actually wish to uninstall the application, you may need to click on the item or run the application and see if there is a setting to not show the menu bar item.
    Hope that helps.

  • How to permanently delete email in mail app?

    Hi! I am using a 2011 macbook pro and it has been running extremely slow lately. When I started looking into things, it seems that my mail app is saving every email I have ever received, even though I have spent hours deleting them. It seems that they are not being permanently deleted.. I always highlight the message (or several) in the mail app and then click the trashcan. Am I doing something wrong? Please help!

    Which os are you using?

  • How do I delete videos off my ipad that are no longer on my computer

    I have some TV shows that I want to delete off my ipad but I cannot seem to use the swipe to the left method. There is a cloud to the right of the button. I have stopped syncing them with my computer, in fact have deleted them from the computer.

    If you are seeing a cloud icon, they are not actually on your device, just available to download. If you wish to turn this off: Settings app >  Videos > Show All Videos [turn OFF]. This is also available in for the Music and iBooks apps.

  • How to handle check-out files of users that are no longer with the company?

    We have cases that files were checked out and modified, but the engineers left before they check-in the files. What's the right way to handle such cases? Does the project admin have right to check-in for the engineers? How can we make another person to
    check the files in?

    Hi Peter, 
    Thanks for your post.
    Do you want check-in that files within the changes which that left engineer created to TFS Server? If yes, you need logon that engineer’s client using his account, then get modified files on this client and perform check-in.
    If you don’t need that changes which modified by that left engineer, just the check-out files on this client caused other users cannot work on that files, you can ask the team project admin user to perform
    tf undo command on that files to resolve this checked-out issue. 
    For example, the files be checked-out under workspace1, so execute this command “tf undo $/xx/xx(file path) 
    /collection:collectionURL /workspace:workspace1 /recursive” to undo it

  • How do I delete a second mail account that is showing up on the dropdown box of a new message.

    When I send an email, it says it is from this second account. It is only showing up on the dropdown from the actual email. I choose my preferred account, but always uses the one I don't want.

  • How do I mange the apps that are on my cloud and not on my device. Second how do you delete things off my cloud that are old and taking up space

    How do I manage my storage on my cloud. For example getting rid of old apps that are no longer on my device but still in the cloud

    Hi Bryan,
    The only thing in iCloud are the backups that you have done for your device. Three backups are usually saved, with the oldest one deleted when you do the next one.
    You may be getting iCloud confused with iTunes in the Cloud. All of your iTunes and App Store purchases are stored in iTunes in the Cloud so that you can re-download them at a later time if you wish. This is not iCloud and has no effect on your iCloud storage.
    However, if you wish to manage what is backed up to iCloud, you can go to Settings>General>Usage and under the iCloud section click on Manage Storage. This will take you to a screen that shows what devices are backing up to iCloud and what settings you have turned on. If you click on a device, it will take you to a detailed screen that has a list of Apps and data that you are backing up. You can selectively turn them off or on. You can also delete older backups if you wish.
    Cheers,

  • How do I delete songs from my iphone that are not on my itunes account?

    How do I delete songs from my iphone that are not on my itunes account?

    You mean music that was not purchased from the iTunes Store?
    If so, that means the music was transferred from your iTunes library on computer via the iTunes sync process - unless you are an iTunes Match subscriber.
    Music transferred from your computer can be removed the same way - via the iTunes sync process or you should be able to delete individual songs direct from the iPhone.

  • HT1391 How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the recordings I purchased

    How can I read and print digital booklets that are downloaded togheter with the albuns I bought?

    cu is right.
    classloader returns the URL of your resource. You can the jar using something like the following...
    ClassLoader classloader = this.getClassLoader();
    url = classloader.getResource("your_resouces...");
    if(url == null)
    System.out.println("cannot find resource ");
    return null;
    String jar = url.getFile();
    jar = jar.substring(jar.indexOf("/")+1, jar.lastIndexOf("!")).replace('/', '\\');
    obviously, this code snippet works on windows only. Now you have the jar file path. I use Jar file classes to access the jar file. (e.g. you can search for each class files)

  • How to quit MLB at bat audio or apps that are not showing by the lock area

    I upgraded MLB at bat so that the audio plays in the background while im multitasking.
    Its great how ever I don't understand how to quit the app.
    When I double click the home button and swipe to the control area where the orientation lock is it does not show mlb at bat running. It shows only the ipod icon. I thought it was suppose to show the mlb at app like it shows the pandora when pandora is streaming music in the background
    Its the same concept of allowing audio to stream ...what gives?
    I guess I can hold down the mlb at bat app when first opening my apps that are in the background hold down so it wiggles and then delete it.
    But this is very confusing.

    If you double click the home button after starting audio (in MLB)...before you single click the home button to quit...and then swipe to the left, you get the iPod icon. But, if you start audio in MLB, then press the Home button to quit the app and go back to the home screen (while still streaming audio in the background), and THEN double click and swipe to the left, you'll get the MLB icon and MLB audio controls.
    By the way, MLB At Bat audio in the background while checking your mail or surfing the web is pretty awesome.
