All mail folder disappeared after 10.9.2 update.

After the 10.9.2 updtae all my mail sub-folders dissapered from my Mac Mail.
I can still find them in the library/mail. But when i Import them from there, they come up with all kinds of sub-folders with strange names.
Anyone know how to fix?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

'All Mail' Folder disappeared after Mavericks upgrade

Before upgrading to Mavericks my mail app had an 'All Mail' folder in the G Mail section on the left hand side of my mail app. This area below 'On My Mac' has folders I created and below that a section that automatically appeared called G Mail. In it is obviously all my g mail but one folder that was particularly useful in finding all g mails that have been sent, deleted, etc. from my Mac, iPad or iPhone is gone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

All iCal data disappears after 10.4.3 update

After updating to 10.4.3 all my iCal data was gone. I restored it using Backup and when I launched iCal it all appeared as normal—and then a few seconds later, poof, it all disappeared again right before my eyes. I tried making a new entry and at first it didn't seem to work, then all my iCal data reappeared for a few seconds, only to disappear again a few seconds later, leaving iCal "virgin" as if no entry had ever been made.
The current iCal version is 2.0.3. I have tried erasing preferences and starting over again to no avail. I have also repaired the disk and the permissions with no improvement.
Any suggestions anyone? This is one of the strangest OS X problems I have ever encountered.

Yes,,, how did you solve the problem specifically from all the suggestions you got?
I got a whole new powermac and used the migration assistant, but that didnt bring the information over for some reason (regarding iCal atleast, and some small unimportant pref files).
I tried faking a 'subscribe' situation, a drag and drop, emailing the ics file, manually inputting them into the new machine's folder and so on but no go. And I dont have a .mac account to try pushing them over...

"On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after Yosemite install! HELP!

"On my Mac" folder including all my subfolders in Mail have disappeared after OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2 install! What should I do?

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

All my Photos disappeared after I saved a photo to Iphoto from an email from my wife. I am running Mountain lion on Mac book pro 2012, help. What did I do wrong?

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

All my Notes disappeared after ICloud upgrade

All my Notes disappeared after ICloud upgrade. I cannot find them, nor a way to recover them from backups? Any ideas? This is a BIG hiccup!

I posted this on another discussion:
Similar problem: I was at a store today and went to my Notes on iPhone 3GS to look up information recorded there about medications for an aging parent. I am syncing through iCloud so the same notes are on my iPhone, iPad 1, and desktop Mac (in Mail). I opened one note, but it didn't have the information I needed, so I went back to the main Notes list and picked another of the dozen notes. I was scrolling down through that note and then suddenly....poof....the note was gone. ALL the notes were gone. The note pad said NO NOTES. ***???!!!!
They were gone from my iPad, too. The notes represent information gathered and organized from multiple years (with no problems until now). The notes are information I NEED. I created a test note, it showed up on my devices. Then I chose to delete it to see if a single key click could do that. The app requires a second click on a Delete Note button as confirmation. And there's no way to delete ALL notes while viewing a single note, deliberately OR accidentally.
Any suggestions about how to recover the notes lost today? Thanks in advance.

Gmail "All Mail" folder. Why can I not delete messages?

i am new to the Mac community. When I open Mail, I have a Gmail folder labelled "All Mail". This folder loaded over 10600 messages from my earlier email activity on a PC. Every time I try to delete any of them, the messages just load back into the folder. Is this normal?. i can move messages to the "Bin" folder, but they still cannot be deleted. Are these messages taking up hard disc space on my new iMac? If so what can I do about it?

I have a different but related question re Gmail's "All Mail" folder: will Gmail get confused if there are emails in folders (tags) that don't have a corresponding copy in the All Mail folder?
CONTEXT:
In my Mac's mail app, I have several accounts (a couple Gmail accts, my icloud acct, etc.). Thus far I've been moving mail from my main Gmail acct into my folders (tags) in that Gmail acct, to store them after I've read / acted on them. E.g., I have a folder for 2013Q1, 2012Q4, 2012Q3, etc. -- these comprise basically a chron-based, self-managed set of archive folders. I even started moving mail from the Sent folder into these folders.
However, I'd like to also start moving mail from my NON-Gmail accts to that main Gmail acct and store them in the same folders. I see that when I move a mail from, say, my iCloud acct, it does show up in the target Gmail folder, but there is NO copy of that mail showing up in the Gmail "All Mail" folder.
Is that a problem? It seems to me that Gmail's All Mail folder is there as a master-index to mail in various folders (tags) ... so is it a problem to have a mail is in a Gmail folder without being in All Mail? (I think the same question would apply if someone wanted to delete mail from Gmail's All Mail folder -- can it be done without harming the copy in other folders? (An example that's not directly on-point: I've considered deleting those myriad drafts that get uploaded to Gmail automatically when you are drafting a message -- but in that case, only the final draft is in another Gmail folder.)
Thanks!

Does anyone know about the privacy policies regarding Notes written on iphone? What about if they are synced with Gmail and get sent to All Mail folder?

I recently found all of my notes (written on my iphone) in my All Mail folder (of my gmail). I think this is because I had selected that my Notes by synced with my Gmail (under Gmail account settings). So I experimented by unsyncing it, then wrote a few more notes, and they stopped appearing in my Gmail All Mail folder. Then, to check, I re-synced it, and wrote some more notes, and they still have not shown up in my All Mail folder. I am freaked out about the unreliability of the systems regarding my personal notes I wrote to myself--both about personal things and to do lists... The fact that it is SO iffy and unclear (Where the notes go and why, where else they may have ended up), is super frustrating to me. What are Apple's privacy policies? Icloud's privacy policies? Gmail's privacy policies? Ergh.
-Frustrated by unreliability and lack of clarity pertaining to personal documents and where they go and where they are stored (even after deletion).

If you go to settings , notes , you can switch we're you want them to go for default. But both your gmail and iCloud have password protection so unless you give someone your password I'm positive nobody can see them. You should also have if you don't already a password on your iPhone to unlock it. Good luck

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:

How do delete all messages in my all mail folder?

Hi, I use gmail and want to delete the messages in my all mail folder. Whenever I empty my trash, the mail keeps popping up in my all mail folder. I don't like this!

hullabaloo, we appreciate this device info! Should definitely be possible. If you go to your Voicemail Box, you can select Delete>on the bottom right hand corner, the option to choose Delete All should appear. This way you can delete them much quicker.

X11 disappearance after 10.4.11 update

X11 app disappeared after 10.4.11 update.
Spotlight can't find it on the hard drive.
Trying to re-install => error message "later version of X11 still installed...".
Thanks for your help

Finally, I've got the solution by re-installing X11 from the original DVD (and not from a downloaded package).
R is now running.

Even after the Mavericks Mac Mail update and showing my "All Mail" folder, Mail.app is still acting weird and slow. Any further suggestions?

Even with the recent Mac Mail Mavericks update and showing my "All Mail" Gmail folder, Mail.app is still acting funky and slow. Any further suggestions for getting Mail.app back to it's pre-Mavericks state?

Your description of the problem is rather vague, but I'll take a guess at what you mean.
Quit Mail if it's running. Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
sqlite3 L*/C*/*.mail/*/L*/*/*/C*.db vacuum; sqlite3 L*/M*/*/*/E*ex vacuum
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
You should see a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) appear below what you entered. If not, press return. You can then quit Terminal and relaunch Mail. Test.
Note: This procedure will have no effect unless you quit Mail when you begin.

Incoming AOL mail in Mac MAIL Inbox disappears after a week

I´ve setup my AOL e-mail accounts in Mac MAIL. Receiving and sending mail via my AOL accounts works fine, but incoming mail will stay only for one week in the Incoming mail folder of Mac MAIL. After one weeks it disappears from the Incoming mail folder and it´s not longer available in MAIL at all. (I can only access it throught the AOL software or AOL Communicator themself, where it´s archived.). Sent (AOL) mail on the other side is still available in the Sent folder of MAIL. Is there any way to keep/store the Received AOL mail in Mac MAIL?

Hi Padua & JWurzak!
I don't know if this will help, but, in your AOL Preferences > Mail: under Automation, do you have the two options below checked?
Save the mail I read
Save the mail I send
Also, in AOL Preferences > Filing Cabinet: do you have Automatically delete items in my filing cabinet checked, and Never selected, in the contextual menus below?
