  • Emails Disappeared from Inbox

    Have lost about a years of saved emails from my inbox....I DID NOT delete them.  One day they were there the next they are gone.  I have settings on account and phone set to 'never delete'. Comcast foreign operators are of no help and eventually 'hang up' on me.....Poor service...They say can't get them, too bad, so sad.....Now if I was the NSA I could get them!Any way to find them or some other tech number to bypass the robots on the 800 number???Can't afford to lose anymore important emails, so if cannot be resolved, may look elswhere for a provider. 

    Most often email disappears from Comcast's "Xfinity Connect" webmail Inbox because an email program (ex: Outlook, Mac Mail) or mobile device (smartphone, tablet) using the POP protocol downloads the mail and removes it from the server.
    Check all mobile devices and email programs on all computers. The missing mail may be in the Inbox of one of these. If necessary, change the Comcast password for the affected userID to prevent mail from being removed. You can change your password in "My Account" (https://customer.xfinity.com/Secure/UserSettings/) under "Users & Preferences" / (username) / "Basic Settings" / Username / "Change password". Once you identify the offending device or program, change its settings to "Leave a copy on the server", and make sure that a "Delete after xxx days" or similar setting is not active.
    The "Email Deletion Schedule" settings in Xfinity Connect do not protect messages from being removed by email programs or mobile devices.

  • Emails disappear from inbox when forwarded

    I have an iPhone 4S with Verizon service. The phone was set up as new. When I forward an email from the inbox to someone, the original email being forwarded disappears from the inbox. In all other mail applications I have used, the original email stays in the inbox. Does anyone know of a way to fix this? Thanks.

    I'm running ios7 and this is still an issue.  Has nothing to do with organize by thread. 
    If you forward an email on a device, the original message disappears from your inbox - on any device (even my mac).
    I'm using a POP account.  I see several messages on this in the discussions but no resolution or acknowledgement from Apple.

  • Email disappeared from inbox

    Hi, all of my emails have misteriously disappeared from my inbox on my mac and on my ipad and iphone. I have no clue as to what happened. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi, thanks for responding...
    it happened on multiple accounts, all of them paid and all of them supposedly being backed up on icloud (the messages were erased from icloud too). I access the emails via pop servers.
    and yes, new messages have been accumulating since yesterday. I'm really worried, because there is a lot of professional messages I lost.
    Please help!
    Thanks again

  • Emails disappearing from inbox.

    Hi guys
    Ive been having this weird problem with my N8 recently.  After I sync my inbox, and emails are downloaded, about five minutes later when i resync, the emails disappear one by one within a matter of seconds until the inbox is empty!  I have exhausted all options on the mail setup menu, I don't know what else to do.
    Anyone had similar problems, or does anyone know how i could resolve this issue?
    Thanks Guys

    Hi desartco,
    Welcome!
    You did not mention your operating system. That would be helpful so we can move this to the Yoga Tablet Forum.
    Assuming that your tablet is running Windows, depending on which email client you are using (Outlook.com, Gmail, Yahoo!, or other account) look there. Your mail app is probably showing only new arrivals.

  • Starred gmail emails disappear from inbox

    Hi,
    I am using the native mail app on iphone4 for my gmail. I would like to star my emails in my inbox, and retain a copy in the inbox. So far, I could move the email to the "Starred" folder, but this removes the email from my inbox. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Many possible reasons; hard to tell without more information.
    Somebody (maybe you) could be deleting them from another device.
    A filter on another device could be moving them to another mailbox.
    You could be deleting them accidentally.

  • I use TB 31.4.0 on Win 8.1. I have 2 pipex & 2 gmail addresses. Sometimes all emails disappear from 1 pipex inbox. Restarting TB clears it. Why?

    This happens 2-3 times a day, and either clears itself in ten minutes, or can be cleared by exiting TB and restarting. I have two Win 8.1 laptops and the same thing happens on both at the same time.

  • Is there a way to delete all email messages from inbox without checking each one at a time on my iphone 4?

    Whenever I want to delete messages in the inbox on my iphone 4, using v4.2.8, I have to manually check each one and then delete them the checked ones as a group. Is there a way to select all and delete them at one time? I love the phone and it is a little complaint, but I often get 50-60 work related messages which I scan then delete because the originals are on my work computer. Thanks.

    Also, the iPhone is not a standalone device and obviously doesn't have a full blown mail client... it's an adjunct to your computer.  If you want to delete a lot of emails, do it on your computer.  You could also log into your webmail using a browser on your iPhone and do it from there.
    You have a point, but you're just helping exposing the misery a little more:  I actually DO delete the emails in WebMail, very easily.  The problem is the sorry state of the Apple email client, that does not replicate those actions on the device, so I have to delete the messages TWICE--once on my computer, with a couple of clicks, and then on my iPhone, with a couple (hundreds) finger gestures.
    As to your point that the iPhone is not a standalone device:  that's nonsense.  The iPhone does a lot of things that users thought IMPOSSIBLE just 10 years ago.  Are you saying that the addition of a simple feature like a "Delete All Messages" button is too much for a mobile device?  Then what to say about Siri, a complex-beyond-our-imagination system that incorporates voice recognition, AI, searching and other hard-to-grasp technologies, all at our fingertips?

  • Email disappears from inbox

    Every once in awhile a new email shows up in my inbox and disappears about 2 seconds later...  Any ideas?
    I am using Lion, Google Apps Gmail and IMAP....
    Please help

    Stylr,
    We have multiple computers,iphones,and an ipad.  My wife started getting just a few seconds of an email, and then...POOF! Nowhere. I started turning off various machines and devices to troubleshoot.  In our case it was one of the kids macs.  She had her icloud email account setup in mail on their login ( as well as many other places).  We had parental controls on, limiting the kids incoming emails to known individuals. This also bounced my wifes mails, which then propagated on all of her devices.  This still bounced her mails when I deactivated that email account on the kids computer login.  It stopped as soon as I deleted her email account on the kids login.  I was able to recreate it by then re-adding her email account to the kids login on the imac. 

  • I just opened my mail on icloud and all messages disappeared from the last year! I have one email left in my inbox which is the most recent. I moved to icloud 2 weeks ago and it has been working fine until now. How can I retrieve old messages? Thank you.

    I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues.  They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
    You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'.  In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.  Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

    Lord K.  Thank you. Yes I am within the 90 time period, however I travel Intertionally and I can not receive not make a call to Apple. I was just at the Genius Bar in Chicago and they said, don't worry about it.  It just floats out there, however, I can not recover my messages on a flash drive. I need to go back to my old computer which I don't have with me.  My messages were in folders for a lawsuit.  It is going to take an incredible amount of work for me to, you have no Idea.  We are talking thousands of pages!  I the defendent will have them during discovery so I am not so worried.  However, I can not bring them to him on a Flashdrive when I meet with him without an extraordinary amount of presssure on my part.  THis is not just some little email issue. This is suing EXPEDIA and Tripadviosr.com

  • Why do my emails disappear from the inbox of my iPad 2

    The emails disappear from the inbox of my iPad 2? The only way I can retain them is to move them to the Trash box.

    Hi Venks,
    I'm not sure if it's the same issue but have a look at the thread below:
    /discussions/board/message?board.id=communicators&thread.id=56357
    My inbox had emptied and the sent/draft/outbox folders had disappeared from the mailbox.
    I hope this helps.

  • SMS disappeared from Inbox

    I have just formatted the Nokia N95 8GB phone due to the error showing as "Startup Failure". There was SMS in inbox earlier. However, when i started installing software - Mini Opera/Fring/MFE/Yamee etc- i have realized that all the SMS are disappeared from Inbox - Inbox is completely empty. Can anybody suggest on how this has occured and how can i restore those missing SMS?

    This seems to be a common issue with the S60 mobile operating system.  No comment from Nokia regarding a resolution so far.
    My E75 phone has also experienced the disappearing-messages-act saved in my SD card when my phone restarted from a low battery shut down.  Inbox/Draft/Sent Items were completely wiped out.
    I tried to change the SMS location from SD Card to Phone Memory then back to SD Card again.
    I also tried to (safely & properly) remove the SD Card then reinserted it back.  Still no go.
    The worst part is that I spent 3 days searching the Internet and found that it's not rare for this problem to occur on an S60 platform yet no resolution from the web nor does Nokia offer any solution to it's customers.
    They're about to lose a 12 year loyal and solid Nokia Fan (along with his friends and relatives to migrate to the Blackberry & iPhone Bandwagon) soon if they can't help us retrieve the important messages that was wiped out from our inbox. <sigh>..

  • Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings to change

    Calendar schedule blank. All appts disappeared from 3g iphone calendar synced to yahoo. After Yahoo corrected error message on their website and I re-synced my iphone, calendar reappears but will not allow edit from iphone. I can't find settings within Yahoo or within my iphone to alter editing options.
    How can I get access to edit and delete the Yahoo calendar from my iphone? I never schedule anything from the Yahoo webpage. All my appointments and reminders are scheduled from the iphone.
    iOS 4.2.1 (8C148a)

    My Yahoo email account worked just fine on my iPhone 4S  for the last 2 months. Then this morning I started receiving the apple.imap.mail,yahoo error.  I tried all of the steps above in solving the yahoo email issue including numerous hard re-sets and deletions of my yahoo account settings without any success. So I gave up trying to use the default Yahoo setup option.  I added my Yahoo account back as an "other" type email account and then had the option to choose to set it up as a "POP" account instead of an IMAP type. I then just used the server settings recommended from Yahoo Help for a Yahoo Plus Email POP (or just google yahoo plus email pop settings). This works and I am back in business.
    I'm not sure if this will work for yahoo mail classic accounts.
    Frustrating that this issue seems to have been going on for quite awhile and Apple still as not made any acknowledgement of this issue or proposed a fix for those of us that can not resolve the issue with a reset.
