10.9 mail.app archive v. all mail and trash

It appears that there are other subtle changes in how the Mavericks Mail.app handles things. in 10.8, we used to have "All Mail", and it was exactly that - all the mail ever received, no matter what the disposition of the mail was. You could always could scan thru the all mail folder and find messages. Now, we have "Archive", which seems to map to all mail, but when I delete a mesage from my InBox, it is now removed from All Mail (Archive) and placed into the Trash bin, which gets emptied periodically.
Does anyone know a way to get the old behavior back? I want everything left in All Mail as it used to be. If I "delete" something, it just removes it from my InBox (or wherever it was). I don't see a way to tell mail.app not to use trash.
Help!

Thanks guys!
what i mean is: I want to set up an account once to use it on both devices, the mac and the iphone. a new account should automaticly appear on the iphone after i set it up in mail.app.
earlier i could set up an account in mail.app and check a checkbox in itunes/overview to automatically sync the account settings to the iphone (and vice versa). the account was then automaticaly installed and set up on the iphone according to the mail.app settings. when i changed the settings in mail.app they also changend on the iphone. the account had to be installed once and could be used on both devices.
to me it looks like i have to set it up twice now, since the checkbox to sync accounts in itunes/overview disapeared (with mavereicks?)
hope, i was clearer now :-)
best, philipp

From the Safari menu bar, select

Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.

How to delete mail and trash in OSX 10.9.2 without opening them

How do you delete mail and trash in OSX 10.9.2 without opening them. I don't want to open suspect mail that might cause a problem.

I think you can just drag it to the trash folder. Otherwise you have to select it and press delete. If you have the preview window going, just selecting it will open it. So you have to have the preview window closed.
P.S.
I don't think you can get into any trouble just opening a message in Apple Mail.

Mail and trash

example
file picture on desktop
i drag it to Mail in order to send new email
then i move the file from desktop to trash
now i want to empty the trash but i can't
file in use
i have to close / exit from Mail app to empty the trash
it happens only with imac 10.6
it does't happen with my mcbook 10.5.8
thanks

Hmmm…try this:
1. Quit Mail if it's running.
2. Go to ~/Library/Preferences and remove the com.apple.mail.plist file to your Desktop.
3. Restart Mail and setup your account(s) again, then wait for Mail to import your existing messages. Then check to see if the problem is resolved. If it does fix the problem, you can delete the com.apple.mail.plist file on your Desktop.
Assuming Mail doesn't do this when you set it up, be sure to check the Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors panel and check the box labeled "Move deleted messages to a separate folder", then select "Quitting Mail" from the drop-down menu below that for the interval at which to erase those messages from the Trash.

Mail and trash can

Whenever I delete messages, they do not show up in the trash folder in mail. They don't really show up anywhere. I have tried following previous posts about this, but still I'm having this problem. Am I deleting things wrong? I select the message and hit delete. Is it because I am using an imap server (AOL)? Please help. Thanks
Casey

I had a similar experience. Try this: go to Mail Preferences (Command+,). Then select Accounts. Under Accounts select the account you want to "fix." Then click on the "Mailbox Behaviors" tab. The third section down shoud be Trash with a check box for "Move deleted messages to a separate folder." This should be checked. You can also select how frequently you would like to erase deleted messages. Your deleted messages should now appear in the (Mail) Trash folder. You can "Erase deleted messages" from the (Mail) Trash whenever you want - or automatically.
Evidently if this is left unchecked, the messages you try to delete are just "grayed out" and appear to still be in your Inbox. This drove me crazy for about 6 hours today trying to figure out how to change it.

All photos and trash bin

I was looking at a picture under all photos. I then closed out the window but reopened it later. The picture was no longer under the all photos tab. It was in the trash bin. So is it possible to still view a photo under all photos even if it has been moved to the trash.

I had an app created by a friend and submitted under his name as the developer. We need to transfer the app to me. I wanted to confirm the current proceedure for transferring ownership of an app.

I had an app created by a friend and submitted under his name as the developer. He is no longer doing apps so we need to transfer ownership of the app to me under my name. I found an explaination from June 11, 2013 from The App Store team and wanted to confirm if this is the current proceedure. (see below) Thank you.
"Starting June 11, 2013 this has officially become possible. Here's the official note:
Dear developer,
Apps can now be transferred from one developer to another within iTunes Connect, for example after an acquisition or when a distribution deal expires. Transferring the ownership of an app does not affect the app’s availability on the App Store. All ratings and reviews will be transferred and your customers will continue to have access to all available app updates.
To transfer an app, go to the app’s App Summary page in the Manage Your Applications module on iTunes Connect and click Transfer App. Make sure that:
• Your account is active
• You have accepted the most current version of your contracts
• Your app has at least one approved version
• Your app is in the Ready for Sale, Invalid Binary, Rejected, Developer Rejected, or Developer Removed from Sale state
• Any associated In-App Purchases are in the Ready to Submit, Ready for Sale, Rejected, Developer Removed from Sale, or Approved state
• You know the Apple ID of the recipient’s Team Agent and their Team ID.
For more information on app transfer, see the video tutorial on iTunes Connect. To find answers to common questions about app transfer, see the FAQ on iTunes Connect.
Regards, The App Store team"

TS4009 How do I clean up mail in my icloud? I have already deleted old mail on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much roo

How do I clean up mail in my icloud? I have already deleted old mail (from all my e-mail accounts) on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much room). When I go to manage storage on any device & it will display how much room each program or app is using, it still shows that my e-mail is taking up the most room. Is there a way to actually log on to the icloud server to manage what it stored there? If so, how do I do it? Also, on a related subject, why does my mail not sync accross all devices? ie. when I delete an email on one device, why do I still see it on all my other devices? How can I change this?
I have an iphone5, ipad2, ipod 4th gen, ipod 3rd gen, all running on my same apple id - but I have a PC not a Mac home computer - is this part of the problem? Looking to upgrade to a Mac sometime this year...

I do have the Time Capsule and spoke to Apple Care here in Sydney about it yesterday. They told me my mail is not backed up there unless I create a special folder. I just tried ringing them again but Apple Care is closed today...
Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule

How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? To my horror, I've emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes (and why do I need to enter this question three times?"

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.

How do I keep an archive of all email in Apple Mail on my computer for one year?

I operate a small business, and need to keep an archive of all email on my computer for at least one year (not on the cloud, as I live on a small island and our internet service is sporadic). I prefer to manually delete all email after 12 or 13 months. It seems like Apple Mail no longer allows this?

What type of account(s)? (POP, IMAP, Exchange)
You can move messages from the sever ( IMAP or Exchange) to a folder under "On My Mac" to save directly to your computer.
When you drag a message it copies. Use the Move icon to move off the server to "On My Mac" folder.
You can select to delete any email at any time by selecting messages then click on Delete.

When I open my mail app it shows that I have unread mail, so I click mark all read and carry on my business. About 2 seconds later all the mail I just marked comes back unread. This keeps happening, what can I do?

Everytime I get a new email, I open the mail app and mark it as read. Recently, whenever I receive emails I mark them all read yet 2 seconds later they are all marked unread. I again mark them all read and the same thing happens. I now have 95 emails from 2 weeks ago that I clearly marked read but they won't stay read. What can I do?

HT4207 "archive" set to "off" and deleted notes still show in the "all mail" folder...

I have "archive" set to "off" and deleted notes still show up in the "all mail" folder, any solutions?

Sometimes the Junk Email rule is damaged. An example of this can be seen here:
http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/2655142/en-us
I would try a couple of things:
Try enabling the Junk Mail Filter, restart outlook, disable it again, and restart.
Or you may find that the just removing the junk mail rule manually using MFCMAPI may do what you want.
One last thing to look into... Does the mailbox do Exchange ActiveSync with a Samsung Android device? If so check here:

The ID for iTunes must be the same on both devices for it to automatically download purchases made on the other phone.
For example, if you have been using [email protected] for iTunes, continue to do so. One of you could also use [email protected] for their iCloud account and the other one use [email protected] for theirs, alternatively you could use [email protected] and [email protected] for the two separate iCloud accounts.
