Lion Mail bug is not loading all mail. It continuously downloads.

My exchange email account is working fine and yet my gmail account is the problem. it loads the preview pane but when i select an email nothing loads. every time i open mail it acts as if it is downloading my entire imap account all over again. I have deleted the account and added it again in hopes that it would fix my problems but reading my google email is not possible with this application. back to sparrow.

For what its worth, I found this solution related to mail on another thread. Not exacltly the same issue but close enought that I gave it a try and it seems to have fixed the problem:
From this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3195923?start=0&tstart=0
1. Right click the Finder Folder in the Dock (and a popup menu will appear)
Hope this works for you as it did for me!
Recommended not by me but successfully used by me, here are the steps again...
1. Right click on Finder icon in the Dock
2. Choose "Go to Folder" in the popup menu
3. Type in ~Library
4. Open the Mail folder(s) until you find the V2 folder
5. As opposed to what was recommended, I deleted all files and folders inside the V2 folder
(After all, gmail and iMobile have my mail history and details on file anyway)
6. Restarted MacBook to be sure
7. Started Mail and added my iMobile and gmail accounts... From there the normal world presented itself!

    Under Window in the Menu bar select Connection doctor. You will see green to indicate a connection and red to show there is a problem. Except for iCloud account you'll see two entries for each account 1) receiving and 2 SMTP for sending.
    If it's red, this usually means it's missing the password.
    For Incoming messages, set in the account window, under Account Information tab.
    For Outgoing (SMTP) messages, follow these steps:
    EDIT SMTP SETTINGS
    In Accounts window > Outgoing Mail Server SMTP:  select to Edit SMTP Server list... from popup.
    Select account in the list.(It's not uncommon to find extra SMTP servers listed. When you remove account, Mail does not delete the smtp info. You might need to do some clean up in the list to remove the extras.)
    Under Advanced Tab:
    Apple defaults to the default ports (25,465, 587) but some servers prefer a custom port. Check to see what port they recommend. Gmail for example likes 465, Outlook.com 587.
    Verify if your server require SSL.
    User Name. Enter full email address  eg.  [email protected]
    Add password if it is blank.(If you have two step authentication setup, you'll need to get an app specific password  more info)
    Open Connection Doctor under Window in the Menu bar.
    Do you see green light now for your account SMTP?

  • My mail system does not load image automatically

    my mail system does not load image automatically. how does that happen? what should i do to set the image load configuration?

    Although you can configure Mail to load HTML images automatically, you should think twice about doing it. The sender of the message could determine your email address, your IP address, and when you opened his message. Not what you want if you get spam, as most people do.

    How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? 
    To my horror, I emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes .
    All mail also disappeared from my iPad, I suppose because they are "synched"
    (Also, no offense, but why do I need to enter this question multiple times?)
    Thanks for any thoughts.

    I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
    I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
    I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

  • Searching Gmail messages in Apple Mail 8.0 and hiding All Mail

    As recommended by several tech sites, I enabled All Mail from my Gmail account to show in IMAP, and Apple Mail 8.0 created a new archive under the Trash icon named "All Mail (Google)". It took several hours to downloaded all my 63000 messages and they are now all stored there (based on the mailbox size in Library>Mail) but still show (as aliases I guess) in the respective mailboxes that I originally assigned them to.
    Now, when I search for a message in Apple Mail, it finds it but shows its location as in "All Mail" instead of the mailbox (or label) that I had assigned it to. Is there a way to hide the All Mail archive so that the search function does not look there first?
    I used to have All Mail disabled in IMAP, and the search worked as I wanted, but the issue was that all my 100 mailboxes had to be synchronized every time a message arrived, was deleted, or was moved from any Gmail mailbox. This means that it constantly cycled in the background through my mailboxes and new mail sound notifications were delayed until all mailboxes had been synced.
    Enabling All Mail to show in IMAP has solved the issue of constant syncing to all mailboxes, but it has introduced the problem with searching my mailbox. It has also meant that every new message that arrives is displayed both in the Inbox and in the All Mail, and I don't need the latter.
    I opened a ticket a year ago about the syncing issues to all mailboxes with bugreport at Apple, and nothing has been solved. Thanks for any help on how to hide the All Mail Google archive without disabling All Mail in IMAP, or any other workaround to search messages by mailbox without having syncing issues.

    Still having this issue and accidentally hit solved.

  • My iphoto will not load, all it does when i open it is just show a blank iphoto and won't load any of my photos that were already in there.

    My iphoto will not load, all it does when i open it is just show a blank iphoto and won't load any of my photos that were already in there. Any way to fix it ?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • HT4914 I turned on iTunes Match, and subscribed; but it did not load all of my library. How can this be corrected so that I can recover all of my library?

    I turned on iTunes Match, and subscribed; but it did not load all of my library. How can this be corrected?

    iTunes Store: Subscribing to iTunes Match
    After looking through the above link, and still doesn't help then try this below:
    > iTunes Content: Downloading past purchases from App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    > Non-iTunes Content: Transfer them from a different iDevice or from USB flash drive and/or external hard drive.
    I don't use iTunes Match so I don't really know.

    My macbook pro with OS 10.6.7 'mail' program does not send my mail through the IPS wireless, I am connected to. The message is my 'e-mail is rejected by the server'. It has been working until 5 days ago. The connection doctor says I am connected and no log in required.
    After trying lots I found now in 'Airport Utility is 'unable to detect any airport wireless devises.....'
    There is no provider to be seen in airport utility and only 'rescan' is an option with no results...
    even so I am connected and can browse the net receive mail etc. and the outgoing 'mail server' is set to the internet provider I am connected to.
    Can you enlighten me what can I do I need to use my e-mail program urgently !!!
    Thanks for your help

    I'm not sure what "IPS wireless" is, but unless you have an Apple Wi-Fi base station (such as a Time Capsule, AirPort Extreme, or AirPort Express), AirPort Utility won't see anything.
    You might try defining a new SMTP server to see if that will work any better.

  • Itunes will not load all photos

    Suddenly, my Ipad 3 will not load all of the photos that are in a folder onto the iPad into an album.  I have a folder of 58 images and iTunes recognizes that.  When I sync to add the images, itunes loads only 53 of them.  I have repeatedly attempted to sync and it keeps loading the 53 images.  I took the 5 images from the folder and put them in a new folder and Itunes will not load them.  These images are JPEG's and are not any larger of a file than the ones that did load.  I have even restored my Ipad and it still only will load the 53 images.
    I had this same problem the other day where out of 96 images, it would only load 76.  I have plenty of HD space available.  I am at my wits end.  All software is up to date now and still same issues so not sure what the problem is.  I've deleted the iPod Cache folders, have a fresh install of ITunes and still no luck.  HELP!

    You removed the cache from iPhoto - correct?

  • Mail in Mavericks not replacing existing mail with same name

    Mail in Mavericks not replacing existing mail with same name.
    Thanks

    I have the same situation as you - sending out pdfs of designed pages and wanting to overwrite them continually. It used to happen on an older version of Mail, then it disappeared and now it's back with the latest version.
    It's more than annoying, it's downright driving me nuts. In the last hour I had to quit Mail seven times.
    Please send a fix for this Apple.

  • Can I revert back to prior mozilla. 6.0 does not load all images

    many websites do not load all pictures and images since I updated to 6.0. Can I undo update?

    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.
