Return to 'inbox' after opening an email & then deleting

When I open a file from inbox, read and then delete or forward, it doesn't return to my inbox, just the next email. If I keeping opening and then need to go back to inbox, I need to use the arrow which goes through every email before ending at the inbox. Can take a long time. Need to set it but don't know how. Please help someone.

I preume you are opening email in a new tab or window.
To force the tab to close on 'Delete' or Move do this:
Tools > Options > Advanced > 'Reading & display' tab
or
Menu icon > Options > Options > Advanced > 'Reading & display' tab
* Select - put a check in - 'Close message window/tab on move or delete'
* click on OK
You can choose to view emails in the lower Message Pane. The Message Pane is not some sort of 'preview', it is the same as viewing in a tab or window and ideal for reading smaller emails.
You can enable this using:
View > Layout > Message Pane
or
Menu icon > Options > Layout > Message Pane
or toggle the view with '''F8''' key

  • How do I delete emails from my i phone, without highlighting each one individually then deleting them one at a time. I would have thought I could highlight many emails, then delete them all!

    How do I delete emails from my i phone, without highlighting each on eindividually, then deleting them one at a time. I would have thought you could highlight many emails then delete them all at once 

    In you mailbox you have an edit button up top on the right, click that and a button will show up next to each email, then you click the button on all the emails you want to delete. 

  • After opening an email of photos from my mom, the email app won't open. I've rebooted the iPad, I've closed the app and reopeneded it. When I open it I get the basic frame (reply button, delete, etc) but none of my accts show up.

    When I first opened the email, it took forever to open. Then the pics didn't show up as pics, but as a ton of some kind of code. Since then, the app will open with just the frame, no info in the frame, no email accts or anything. Then it closes automatically after a few seconds.
    I've closed the app and reopened it, rebooted the iPad, and gone online and deleted the email itself. But the app still won't open. Help, please!!

    Thank you. I tried the soft reboot again, and the home button has been working fine this whole time. I have tried deleting the email acct from the settings and the mail app still opens only empty frames. I have a screen shot of it, but don't know how to post it here to be able to show what exactly is happening.
    The mail app will open. I can see the area that usually shows the messages themselves. I can also see the area that usually displays all the accts. Both these areas are completely blank. The search bar is showing on the left hand side, and up on the top right, the download button, reply, delete and compose buttons are showing. At the very bottom left the refresh button is showing. The app sits like that for about 20 seconds and then automatically closes. None of the buttons are responsive. I cannot see any of the email accounts I have in the app (3, usually but 2 at the moment since deleting the acct that seemed to have caused this problem).
    I have force-stopped the app, shut down and restarted the iPad, and rebooted the iPad. None of these have helped.

  • IPod Mail 1.1.3 - Return to inbox after delete message

    Hi.
    I'm wondering if there's a way to have the iPod return to the Inbox after deleteing a message, instead of what it currently does which is moving on to the next message. This has horribly detremental effects as if the next message happens to have been an un-read one, and I didn't realize it and just back out after deleting the message, the message isn't marked as unread anymore.
    If this isn't available in the current update, could this please be added for the next update?
    Thank you for any information.

    No, there's no option for that.
    Apple doesn't read these boards, generally speaking, so send feedback:

  • After opening an email, my screen went black

    my mom opened an email and her screen went blank. I recieved the same email everything was fine on my computer when I opened it.
    Any thoughts?

    Can you use
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583>Target Disk Mode to run Disk Utility on her machine?  Or can she boot from het install disc and do it herself?
    Disk Utility
       1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
       2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
          Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
       3. Click the First Aid tab.
       4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
       5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
       6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    Then boot back to your internal drive and use the internal Disk Utility to repair Permissions.

  • I can no longer click on a tab 'inbox' to return to the inbox after reading an email tab is not shown when I go to a mwssage

    The 'inbox' tab has suddenly disappeared from the top left of my screen. I can no longer return from a message to the inbox in one click. Can somebody help?
    Regards
    Trevor Green

    Thunderbird has had a tabbed interface since version three and still this forum gets people complaining they can not see the inbox tab because they never actually close a tab.
    So right click a tab and select close other tabs. Perhaps you might consider closing the tabs you open to read your mail when you are done with them and then you will not have the hassle.

  • Deleted messages returned to inbox after keying command shift L incorrectly

    I was in the process of flagging a message and for learning purposes attempted to do it with the keystroke combination rather than simply selecting the acton. silly me! The combination of flagging a message is command shift L but instead of using the shift key I used the page up or arrow up key. suddenly a bunch of messages that had been deleted returned in a grayed out state. I tried re-deleting them, selecting specfic inbox folders for example. I had some success but not all will go away. and now I just labeled a new message as junk and the message goes to the junk folder but a grayed out message with a flag symbol stays in the inbox and won't go away. What did I do when I messed up that key combination? I looked at some of the other related issues on this discussion. I did some research into the preferences and into whether or not there are the correct deleted messages folders in the pop account folders. I found some inconsistancies but since I've never been to those folders before I don't know if things were any different before my keystroke mistake. I just want to go back to the default situation that I had set up before this booboo. I had created 3 pop accounts and I may have had some preferences on the deleted items folders, but essentially deleted messges were going to the trash and I think they were in the trash. I probably hadn't been emptying the trash. Weird, on my PC when i deleted a message it was gone. with Mac they seem to be in a trash folder which must then be emptied. interesting. (I am very new to Macs)

    > Cutting the messages seems to disappear them for now...
    but I don't trust where they are going.
    What do you mean? They don’t go anywhere (well, they go to a temporary storage area so that you can paste them). That’s precisely why it works.
    I want to understand why the delete button doesn't function as it should.
    Probably because there is something wrong with the messages themselves that prevents Mail from being able to handle them properly in general and from moving them to any other mailbox in particular. If Edit > Cut didn’t work (and sometimes it doesn’t), you’d have to manually get rid of the associated *.emlx files and re-create the index afterwards.

  • How do I get back to INBOX after reading an email?

    When I click on an email and finish reading it and want to get back to my INBOX - the bar at the top does not show my INBOX. Instead I have to click on the top left arrow to scroll to the INBOX. This is HORRIBLY time consuming. How can I just simply get back to my INBOX? Thanks!

    These were unhelpful answers. I often cannot get back to INBOX from elsewhere in Thunderbird (not in webmail) and have to close the program to start afresh. Surely there is a straightforward way of getting to Inbox which I dont know about and cannot find? I did not select Firefox, I selected Thunderbird, so I presume I am in the right place for Thunderbird.

  • IMac putting pictures on Desktop after opening from email

    This is driving me nuts! Every time I open something from email, a picture, a document, a video, the next thing I know it's on my Desktop. Can anyone tell me can I stop this from happening? And how it got started to begin with? Is it Thunderbird doing it? Thanks in advance!

  • Site "crashes" when attempting to return to inbox after full scan and numerous crash reports.

    Problem just began on 1/25/13. Can view any site on hotmail window or web browser. When finished with site and attempt to return to Firefox site by either X in viewed site or back arrow site crashes and comes up with a crash report site.
    I have been sending reports and then attempting to reconnect using reconnect. No solution.
    I now cancel reconnect to return to Firefox Mozilla and then hit Hotmail in Most viewed.
    Very clumsy.
    Please advise simple and easy to UNDERSTAND for non teckie.
    thanks

    I was able to enter "about crashes" it referred me back to your directions about an "address bar".
    You have to be very simple with me. I have entered the requested information on every place I could on your web browser with no joy.
    Where exactly on you site do I enter "about crashes"?
    The "address bar" is not noted on my computer or in any help source that I have attempted to find. Please bear with me, I am just a user and not a skilled one at that. I enter sites wherever I can get results.
    As an afterthought, your web browser only shows 3 or 4 places to enter requests:
    1. standard web addresses
    2. search requests
    3. Foxfire requests (in center of page).
    Again I have tried all 3 with no joy and a lot of frustration. My research shows that the requested information would be very helpful but does not tell me how to access (for "dummies")
    thanks again

  • My computer will come on for 2 seconds after opening lid, but then shut off again.

    My computer will pop up with the music for a couple of seconds the go right back off.

    Hennysmom,
    is this happening when you first turn on the MacBook Pro, or when you open the lid to wake it up from sleeping?
    Which model MacBook Pro do you have, and which version of OS X is installed on it?

  • How do I stop Notes on my ipad from e-mailing my documents to my outlook inbox on my laptop and then deleting the document from notes on my ipad?

    I amhaving a problem where if I work on Notes on my ipad, the ipad e-mails various emails of that document to my Outlook inbox on my laptop.  Therefore on one given day, I can get various e-mails with the document that I am working on in my outlook inbox on my laptop.  It also deletes the Notes document from the ipad.  How do I stop this from happening?

    Hi geminigay,
    You state that your music plays at random times even if it isn't open. Also your earbuds are plugged in most of the time.
    Does this happen if the earbuds are not connected?
    Are your earbuds the ones with the remote and mic?.  If so, they can start the music playing even if the Music app is not running.
    Use an Apple headset - iPhone
    The Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic (iPhone 5 or later) and the Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic (iPhone 4s) feature a microphone, volume buttons, and the center button, which lets you answer and end calls or control audio and video playback, even when iPhone is locked.
    Use the center button to control music playback. 
    Pause a song or video:  Press the center button. Press again to resume playback.
    Note that applies to the iPad as well.
    See if the remote is being activated.
    Regards,
    Nubz

  • Unable to open any emails or delete them or send new ones

    can not send, open or delete any emails when using firefox only when using explorer why???

    i tried adding hotmail into mail, and it keep saying" connection failed. Could not connect to 'httpmail Account'
    Access to Hotmail via Outlook and Outlook Express now requires a subscription. Please sign up at http://join.msn.com/general/Email"
    When i go into the website given, they're just asking me to install msn and etc which i already did long time ago.
    honestly, i don't really know how to use mail, thus going into the website directly to get my emails will be easier i think...
