All emails from aug2014 to present are gone since upgrading to Yosemite

Since upgrading to Yosemite, all my emails from aug2014 to present are gone from Mail.  Help!

It seems very unlikely that the upgrade would actually have deleted files. Mail is stored in <yourusername>/LibraryMail.
Exit Mail (Cmd-Q).
Go to that folder (in Finder, hold the option key while clicking the Go menu item to reveal the Library) and make a copy of all the subfolders somewhere (just in case).
Reopen Mail, go to the offending mailbox (Inbox, I guess) and do Mailbox, Rebuild. Cross fingers; wait a few minutes.
Another route is to (having made the copy above and closed Mail) to go to the Maildata subfolder in /Library/Mail and trash the Envelope files.
Hope this helps.
If possible, see if you can switch to Imap - then at least your server will retain copies of all the messages

    Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

  • All of my pictures from my iPhoto library are gone after upgrading to Mavericks

    I just upgraded to Os X Mavericks and now all of my pictures are gone from my iPhoto library, and of course I am unable to access this version of iPhoto on OS X Mavericks.
    I tried to find them using a different application or in Finder, and in both cases "iPhoto Library" is in Gray and no contents are available. My system memory doesn't seem to be reflecting the number of photos I have either.
    If I go back to my old operating system will it work? If not, I have lost all my pictures since February of 2011. I have been crying nonstop for an hour trying to figure out what to do.

    Open the App Store and upgrade iPhoto to the Mavericks version. Installing OS X does not do anything to your iPhoto Library.
    The iWork apps are free with a new iOS device since 1 SEP 2013. They are free with a new Mac since 1 OCT 2013. They are also free with the upgrade to OS X Mavericks 10.9 if you had the previous version installed when you upgraded.

  • All emails stored "on my mac" are gone?

    Upgraded to 10.8.2.  All my Macmail email folders that were stored "on my mac" have been emptied.  I see them in "All Mail."  How do I reorganize/assign them back to original folders?  I've followed other discussions, found them in Library>Mail>V2 and tried to import them from mbox format, but "no valid mbox files found".  Any suggestions?  I have a back up for Time machine, but figure out how to transfer files back to folders.  Thanks.

    if you think it's a good idea to store these emails on iCloud - and I would have reservations about it - then the procedure is done in Mail on your Mac.
    1. Create a new mailbox, making sure it comes under iCloud. To do this, click the '+' sign at bottom left, and in the pane which opens set the drop-down menu to 'iCloud' and choose a name.
    2. Open the mailbox containing the messages you want to transfer
    3. Select some messages (don't do a large amount at a time) and drag them to the new mailbox in the sidebar.
    Allow time for them to upload before continuing. This will remove them from your Mac. Repeat with other messages and new mailboxes as desired.
    Now your important messages are on iCloud, and if it goes down or there is a server error you could lose access to them, which is why I question it being such a good idea. If you leave them on your Mac and ensure you have a backup strategy in place, that might be safer.
    However you could do both by following the above procedure but holding the option (alt) key down while dragging. This will copy the messages to iCloud but also leave them in place on your Mac. Obviously you will then see them in both mailboxes in Mail, though only in the one mailbox at icloud.com

  • Can't send email from Apple mail using hosted exchange since upgrade to 10.5.8

    I've got a client who just upgraded to 10.8. Since doing so he can recieve email but not send it for a hosted exchange account. He can send and recieve from his personal pop account. It is a wireless connection.  I have tried the following without any success:
    1. Verified all the config info was correct (server password etc) - no change
    2. Deleted and re-added the account - same result
    3. Deleted keychain data and readed the account - no change.
    4. Ran disk utility (why not?) - no change
    5. Removed an internet sharing app called open garden - no change
    6. Installed 10.8.1 - no change
    After trying all of this when we start mail everything looks good and then the outbound server abruptly goes "offline". The exchange host says there are no issues on their end. Internet works too. Email delivers/sends to his iPhone, iPad, and a home iMac that was also upgraded to 10.8.
    Anyone with other ideas? This one has me stumped.

    I have the exact same issue, but with a standard IMAP account and SMTP.  My iPhone can send out, using the EXACT same settings, from the exact same WiFi connection...but the 10.8 MacBook cannot send at all.  The only account I can send out on is my iCloud account. 
    I have also tried all the steps above...no luck.
    I have also turned off all network filters and firewalls...no luck.  (And as I said above, my iPhone is on the exact same WiFi connection and using the exact same settings, and it can send fine.)
    Other messages I've found via Google have suggested simply forcing the SMTP server to use Port 25, but that didn't work for me either.

  • HT4859 After the i-cloud server issue Nov 26, 2012, I had to change some mail account settings to get my i-cloud mail to work again.  However, all of my received e-mails are gone.  How do I retrieve my e-mails from the server?

    After the i-cloud server issue yesterday, November 26, 2012, my i-cloud mail account on my Macbook Pro stopped receiving mail.  I changed some mail account settings to fix the issue, and was able to start receiving e-mails.  However, all of my historical e-mails are gone.  How do I retrieve all of my old e-mails from the server?

    What settings did you change, what were the changes, have you visited www.icloud.com to see what mail is actually there? and do you have a backup?

  • Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    Mail application is still there. All of my emails and folders are gone since iCloud. How can I get them back using Snow Leopard? Or can I? Do I have to wait for Mountain Lion?

    I need to check a few other things...
    Click on 'Mail' in the upper left corner next to the Apple ()
    Click Preferences
    Click the 'Accounts' tab
    Make sure your iCloud account is highlighted in the column on the left.
    In the account information section what does it say next to:
    Incoming Mail Server?
    Outgoing Mail Server?
    Also, did you use MobileMe before the iCloud?

    I have an imap account and deleted all mail from server. Once doing this all emails from my iPad -which was on a wi-fi- where automatically deleted. Fortunately these emails are still visible on my iPhone that was without connection. If I send all these emails to my iCloud account - they will remain into my outgoing folder until I open my wi-fi- …BUT will they be sent when I open my wi-fi connection, or since they are no longer on my server… be deleted for ever!?

    This is how IMAP works, if you delete from one device it will also be deleted in the other devices.
    iCloud do not backup e-mails.

  • Just logged on, all of my songs and playlists are gone

    Hi, Just logged onto my account through the browser and all of my songs and playlists are gone. Even further, there's a recently played artists who I definitely did not listen to. Assuming that someone hacked my account, I changed my password. But when I looked in "Recover Playlists" there were none of my missing playlists to recover. What is happening to my account? I pay for this application. I had a dozen playlists and thousands of songs that took months to put together. Please help me recover my missing playlists and songs!  Thanks,Phoenix

  • Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone?

    Why is there no way to delete all emails from my iphone? IOS 7.1. Every other phone in the market allows you to 'select all' then delete.
    This trick of selecting one, then holding move, then unchecking (and subsequently moving all the emails to trash) doesn't work. I've read these suggestions and while it appears to work the emails just show up again once you leave and return to the inbox. Perhaps it worked on an older version of IOS.
    It blows my mind this is not a standard function. I get a few hundred emails at work every day, and most of the time I just want to delete all of them from the phone as I've read them already. Currently it seems i can only click edit and then have to check each email individually to be able to delete them at the same time; this is the definition of tedious. I would think there are millions of other iphone users who get their company email on their phones that must experience the same thing. It seems now i either spend 20 minutes a day deleting emails, or just let thousands of emails accumulate on the phone (taking up space and also making it hard to just review the most recent emails which is all I want to be able to do when checking email on my phone).
    I am hoping I am just missing some simple solution here that everyone else uses. Please help!!
    Mark

    Only Apple could answer as to why there is no "select all/"delete all" function in the iOS mail app. Users have been bemoaning this lack of functionality for years now. Like everyone else, you can submit feedback to. Apple here.
    Apple - iPhone - Feedback
    While I understand the whole idea of being able to use the phone on the run, if you have an IMAP email account, and if you have access to a computer at work during the day, use your "select all" function on the server and delete all of the unwanted email there and it will be removed from the phone as well.
    That doesn't solve the problem on the phone, but it gets rid of the email which is your ultimate goal anyway.

    After you restore from backup, you MUST sync to restore your iTunes content. No iTunes content is included in the iPhone backup. Your apps should be in your iTunes library, just sync them back to your phone. If for some reason your apps are not in your library, you can re-download them for free:
