Viewing individual Mail Messages

From my inbox, I can preview up each message and view some of the content of each message, but when I select an individual message, I'm unable to read/see any text in the message. I've unloaded and reloaded MobileMe on my device, but it still doesn't allow me to view an individual message.
No issue on the iPad.

Have you tried dragging the mail from the inbox and dropping it where you want to save it - all in the MAILBOXES sidebar? If you make the sub folders visible, you should be able to deposit the mail wherever you like.

  • How Can I Move Individual Mail Messages to Folders Without Dragging Each One?

    In my business, I get a lot of client email.  I also create and store a lot of client documents.  To manage everything, I have created a main folder named "Clients" on my Mac, and have also created a separate subfolder for each individual client to hold both documents and correspondence pertaining to that specific client.  When I want to save an email to that folder, I drag that message to the desktop to then be filed in the individual client's folder.  It's a two step process, but one I've been using successfully for some time.
    This was not such a big deal before Mail became a beautiful full-screen app.  But now, in order to take advantage of Mail's full-screen capabilities, I have to first exit full screen each time I wish to drag a message out of Mail to my desktop.  Then once the message or messages have been dragged out, I have to reenable full-screen.  That's a couple of additional steps and a real nusiance.  I've considered creating a mailbox for each client in Mail, but with hundreds of clients that's really not an option.
    My question is as follows: Is anyone aware of any app, script, or add on available for Mail, that would allow me to either move or copy individual email messages directly to my desktop or to a folder without having to go through exiting and enabling full screen each time?  Perhaps an app or script that offers a dedicated right-click in the context menu?  Or one that offers the "Desktop" as a location in the current right click "Move To" menu?  Or that would create a keyboard shortcut that would accomplish that task?  I've searched online, but have been unable to come up with anything.
    Thanks in advance for your help. Any advice or suggestions you could give would be most appreciated!

  • Disable viewing next mail message(s) on iPad?!?

    Why has this not been fixed yet?? I know there are other "mail apps" out there, but I'd love to be able to just open up my Apple Mail app on my iPad and not be forced to see a mail message displayed if there is one in my inbox.
    Why can't we deselect a message in the sidebar and have the large portion of the screen on the right say, "No message selected" or it can just be a blank page for all I care - just like you have an "empty" inbox.
    It's a little absurd how aggravated I get about this, but I think it is incredibly foolish to not have this option from Apple. I **HATE** to use the Mail app from Apple. Anybody else feel the same way?

    Let apple know how you feel

    When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose "  button is gone. What have I done wrong?

    Hi Liz,
    Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem.  Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File",  then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups  opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine.  I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked  "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1).  I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do. 
    The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu,  when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.  
    I am now a happy camper. 
    I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto,  that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"? 
    Good luck Liz,  if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

  • Mail app conversation view excludes first message

    I've trying to switch over to Mail from Outlook.  One thing I'm noticing is that in "conversation view" for messages, the orginal message is excluded.  For instance is someone sends me a message with a subject of "Hello!" and then I get a reply the subject is "Re: Hello!"  I realize it's grouping using the subject line but it should probably exclude things like "Re:", "Fw:" and others.  Is there anway to get this to happen?

    Is the box checked in Mail>Preference>Viewing  include related messages.

    When I am viewing the latest message in a conversation in Mail in the preview and want to reply, I hit reply and it does not include the latest message?  I have to double click the latest message to open it and then reply.  I find this irritating and would like to skip this step and be able to reply from preview and include that message.  Am I missing a setting to fix this?

    I have found that if you have highlighted some text in the message and then hit reply, the highlighted section is the only bit included in the reply.  You need to click on the message in the middle list rather than the preview pain on the righthand side and it should reply normally.  To check it's doing this, select a message in the middle section of the screnn then use the down arrow to drop to the next message. Hit reply, and it should reply normally.  I hope this helps.

    i am unable to open any links on any mail messages. thhis includes any buttons, such as view or buy when on a group on mail for example.

    So I'm not Mary Frances.  I'm her husband who is force to deal with this opaque and obnoxious equipment (iPad).  With the iOS 7 update she could no longer follow web links by tapping them in an e-mail (it did work from a web page).  After an hour of web searching, experimenting and rejecting the offer of an answer from apple help for only $20, I found that, if in settings/safari, you turn off the "Do Not Track" button, the ability to follow links in an e-mail by a tapping is magically returned.
    Flash! I just went back to the ipad and turned on the "Do Not Track" button -- just to test my discovery.  Predictably (by my cynical myself) you can still open a link in an e-mail, so I don't know what's happening/happen.  But I'm not surprised.

  • View mail messages posted from Outlook?

    Please help!!!
    How I can view messages posted from Outlook?
    I want to use swing controls which can show formated text and pictures like in Outlook.

    Resolved, had to move the mail messages into a new temporary user account delete the cyrus header/cache/index then do a user rebuild on the temp user with mail bfr. Looks like it finally got them all in. Still not sure why mailbfr couldn't restore the original user, maybe corruption, but that wasn't the point of the question.

  • How do I set TB's default startup view to show e-mail message list instead of only the latest opened message?

    Hi, I just now installed Thunderbird 24.3 and am using Thunderbird for the first time ever. From having had Outlook Express before, I am used to the app opening to my full list of mail boxes (Inbox, Sent, Car, Cat, etc.) upon clicking the app's program icon. In TB, however, I am instead finding that TB opens showing the *latest e-mail message I had opened* -- no list of mail boxes. I end up having to click the upper left arrow in TB numerous times until I can no longer click leftward any more, at which point the tab appears that names the latest e-mail message that I had opened previously, at which time I can then *click* on that tab, which magically opens the list of my e-mail boxes that I wanted to show in the first place. I would like avoiding this rigamarole in the future. Thanks for any insights.

    Thanks so much for your speedy, thorough, and detailed reply. I have done as you suggested, deciding to go with the "open message in existing window" option. How great is that! One reason I chose to go with Thunderbird when I changed from an XP PC to Windows 7 (besides TB being free) was the clearly written support and easy forum posting method I saw online. This continues to hold true -- Still so glad I chose Thunderbird! Thanks again.

  • Batch save Mail messages as PDF's

    I am in need of saving all of my email messages in my inbox as individual PDF documents. I know you can do it one at a time via "Print>save as PDF" but we are talking about a few hundred email messages here.
    Is there anyway to take advantage of something like automator or could someone show me some software to batch save all of these messages?
    Thanks so much for the help.

    In Mail, select all the messages to print (a smart mailbox may help).  When all are selected do a file > save as (RTF or plain text).  This will create one printable file with all the messages.  You can then load this file into TextEdit and print it as a PDF.
    Thanks -- this may be what I go with.  However, when I tried this the rtf file did contain all of the messages, but did not show the header information on each (To:, From:, Date: ...), so I continued my search for a solution.  I think I found something that works.  My project is actually larger than what I described.  Interested people may be able to use some or all of the following.
    The project started when I asked a friend to send me all of the emails that I have sent him over the last 15 years.  He had archived them all in Windows / Outlook Express.  I had not archived them.  He was able to give me a .DBX file containing them all.  I used a free program called DbxConv in Windows to convert the .DBX file to a .MBX file.
    In Apple Mail I did File/Import_Mailboxes/File_In_mbox_Format to import them.  Then, View/Organize_by_Conversation (checked on).  Select all messages and File/Print/PDF/Save_As_PDF into a new folder on the desktop.  This will generate many pdfs.
    Now the new part:
    Next, drag all of the PDFs into Preview.  Finally, in Preview, File/Print/PDF/Save_As_PDF.  This will create a single pdf file with all messages, including imbedded attachments, with info displayed in your current Apple Mail format -- dependent on how you like your Apple Mail messages displayed (minimal header, expanded header, etc.) . . . . .  I think!
    At least it worked for me, once.  I try it again and see what develops.

  • In search of assistance learning how to modify the mail message from an out of the box SP2010 approval workflow.

    So, I have found the article
    http://punaro.com/2012/01/derek/modifying-a-sharepoint-2010-workflow-email/comment-page-1/ which appears to walk through the process of modifying an out of the box workflow's mail message.
    However, there is a basic problem that I run into before I get started.
    I am logged into the system as a regular user (ie not a farm admin, etc.).
    I do, however, have full control on the site on which I am working.
    I create a custom list.
    I create a simple one step approval - sharepoint 2010 out of the box workflow.
    I start SharePoint designer and give it the URL of the list. It opens up and I see the various objects on the left side of the screen.
    I click right on the Workflows object - which is where the article says I will find the ability to copy and modify the workflow.
    All I see is "open", "open in a new tab" and "Pin".
    I selecdt open in a new tab - and I get a blank screen labeled workflows that says "There are no items to show in this view".
    So, I click on Lists and Libraries, then on the name of my custom list.
    When the list displays, the Workflows section of the page has a "Modified Workflow" displayed.
    When I right click on it, no menu is shown. When I click on the modified workflow, I get the workflow settings page for that workflow.
    I am trying to figure out how to create the copy of the workflow so that I can modify one of the mail messages in SharePoint designer.
    Is there someone who has some advice on how to find this copy and modify option?  Or perhaps a web site, web forum, article series, or book covering the topic?
    Thank you! 

    Hi lwvirden,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to modify the OOB approval workflow in SharePoint Designer.
    After opening the site in SharePoint Designer, just click Workflows in the left panel and then the workflows in the site will load in the right part.
    If you want to copy and modify the OOB approval workflow, then you need to right the approval workflow
    Approval – SharePoint 2010 under Globally Reusable Workflow. After that you will see the
    Copy and Modify button.
    Best regards.
    Thanks

  • How to move photos from an e-mail message into a PSE-4 catalog.

    I have an Earthlink e-mail message with a large number of photographs that I want to move into my PSE4 catalog but I don't know how to do it. I'd appreciate some definative instructions on how to accomplish this.  The photos are in my windows XP computer.  P.S. I'm not very "computer-wise".

    You have to use your e-mail program to save the photos to individual files on your hard disk. Then, in PSE4, File->Get Photos->From Files and Folders and point PSE to your newly saved photos.

  • Is there a way to view all the messages in a folder containing subfolders?

    I use Mac Mail for my work email (becuase I hate entourage...), but the way it displays messages within folders is really inconvenient. Let's say I have a folder for a client (Brand XYZ) and within that folder I have subfolders (Campaign A, Project B, Other). If I want to view all the emails for the highest folder (Brand XYZ) there doesn't seem to be an option to view all the messages for that folder without going through each subfolder and viewing its contents.
    How I see it:
    Brand XYZ - only generic emails that don't pertain to a specific topic
    Campaign A - only emails regarding this campaign
    Project B - only emails regarding this project
    How I want to see it:
    Brand XYZ - ALL EMAILS; generic emails that don't pertain to a specific topic & emails within subfolders
    Campaign A - only emails regarding this campaign
    Project B - only emails regarding this project
    Is there any way of doing this??? Thanks for the help!

    No, you can't mix "all" and "any" filters. You can only select one. I haven't had a lot of success using boolean for filtering. Only thing I can say is try it. If it works for you in the Mail search window, it should work in the smart mailbox search.
    For creating search criteria filters, only thing I can suggest is think about what you want it to show. Then look at the criteria given in smart mailboxes and think about what the best way to achieve it would be using the any or all. You may need to create seperate SMs for different criteria. As I said, you can put smart mailboxes in a smart mailbox folder, but you can put a SM in a local mailbox or within another SM.
    You could also use SM in conjunction with the local mailboxes. If you are moving messages to seperate local mailboxes, you could just use the SM to view all messages from a particular client. That would make more since than moving the message to a main local mailbox and then copying them to subfolders so they can be viewed from both. The big downside to that is duplicate messages, but if it works for you then that's OK.

  • Another user's calendar appears when a date is selected in Mail message

    Just upgraded to Lion on our family Mac. My wife and I each have an account on the Mac and share an Apple ID for purchases.
    We each have an iPhone and have separate iCloud accounts. The shared Apple ID is used only for the App Store on the phones.
    iCloud is working great, and syncing correctly with our individual accounts on the Mac.
    But if I select a date that appears in a Mail message in my account on my Mac, the preview window for making an iCal event appears with my wife's calendar events, not mine!
    If I go ahead and create the event anyway, it correctly appears in my calendar, not in my wife's.
    Any way to prevent the display of another user's calendar when making an event from a date in a Mail message from your own account on a Mac running Lion?
