How do I change the "trash" icon to "archive" icon in email on my iPhone using iOS7?

How do I change the "Trash" icon to "Archive" icon as the default setting in email using iPhone iOS7?

That is very much dependent on your Email account.
Go to Settings->Mail,Contacts,Calendars->Accounts->Your Account->Account->Advanced->Move Discarded Messages Into.
Choose Archive Mailbox.
It may not be there if its not supported by your email provider.

My trash can icon disappeared from my email screen. How do I get it back?

My trash can icon disappeared from my email screen. How do I get it back? The archive box replaced it on screen and now there is an arrow to go to it. It is annoying because I trash things way more than I archive them.

By the way, it's an ipod touch 32G 4th generation.
Thanks for any help I can get.

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.

Hi aadeshs
This problem is on my laptop running Vista ( Business) on Adobe 10.0 , for many years I did NOT have a problem with this . No forum Pages on this.
Also i would like to know how screen readers can better interact with PDF as my wife has difficultys on some email attachments on her laptop , again there seems no easy avenue for someone in her situation surfing websites and forums for Hours maybe ok ok for sighted people, but not if you are blind & use a screenreader. No Support Help from Adobe is available.
thanks

No archive icon in mail

iOS shows an archive icon in mail, to save documents. I have the newest updates, not able to archive. Any thoughts?

Where are you getting that information? You can only add additional mail boxes if you have an IMAP email account and the "archive" folder is a gmail thing.
If you go to your email account in the Mail app and look at the window where your inbox, trash folder and sent folder are - if there is an Edit button at the top of the window - tap that and then tap Add Mailbox at the bottom.
If the Edit button is not there - you cannot create folders on the iPad. Your email account is not IMAP. Only IMAP email accounts can create folders on the iPad. Any folders that you would already have in an IMAP account would sync to the device as well.

Trash Icon replaced by Archive Icon on IOS8

Can anyone explain why my iPhone6 with iOS8.1 has an Archive icon at the bottom of a mail item instead of a Trash Icon. My iPad2 running iOS8.1 still has the Trash Icon. If this is normal for the iPhone6, is there any way to change it back. Really annoying change by Apple.

Hello Steve,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
You don't mention what kind of email set up you have, but while this article discusses Gmail, it also explains how you can select to move discarded messages into either the Archived Mailbox or the Deleted Mailbox.

HT4085 orientation of email screen

I cannot change the orientation of my email screen. Other screens adjust accordingly, but email will not.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Or quit mail and restart.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How can i move icons from one screen to the other?

How do i move icons from one page to another?

Tap and hold any icon for a couple of seconds. They'll all start to wobble. Tap and drag the one you want to move to the side of the screen and the next screen will appear; drop the icon on whatever screen you want it on.
You can also do it quicker in iTunes - connect the phone and click the Apps tab in the main window. You'll see a picture of your phone with the apps laid out. Just click and drag

Can't drag icon from customize screen to tool bar on Dell Venue 8 Pro tablet.

On my Dell Venue 8 Pro tablet, win 8.1, I am unable to drag the 'download' (arrow) icon from the customize screen on to the tool bar.
I was able to drag the 'search' icon from the screen to the tool bar.
Why can I drag one, and not another?
Thanks,
WoodyB

You can click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar setup if there is a problem with customizing the toolbars.
You can check for problems caused by a corrupted localstore.rdf file if you continue to have problems.

Try to backup and restore you device in itunes...restoring the device is like removing the iOS software off the device and re-add in a newer software, after you have restore you device, MAKE SURE YOU SET UP YOUR DEVICE LIKE A NEW DEVICE, DONT NOT RESTORE FROM BACKUP!!... give the device a chance to use the newer software and see if the issue still persisting, if the issue still on going then its would be a hardware issue.
Call Apple Care and see if your device is still under warranty to get it replace

HT4528 how do i move an icon from one screen to another on my Iphone 5?

How do I mov an icon from one screen to another on my Iphone 5?

Tap and hold an Icon until they begin to shake. Move the Icon towards the edge of the screen and hold for a couple seconds. The Icon will then "jump" to the next screen.

There is no option to reject an incoming call in locked screen, there must be an icon on the screen for one who don't want to use lock button several times, i did'nt face this problem in last ios 6.1.3.

A good read. Have you done anything at all to resolve your problem. Reset? Restore?
By the way - "your products"... nobody here produced the iPhone, we are all just users. Apple is not here.

How do I move icons from one screen to another.

Hold down on one icon until they start shaking, then drag the icon to the edge of the screen, and the screen should slide to the next one, you can then drop it on that screen or drag it again to the edge to move to the next screen.

I have two iPads about a year old and have 5 full folders of web links that I would like to copy from one to the other. Both have iCloud but not the same account. Is there an easy way to grab those folders or the icons and email?

I have two iPad 2 with separate iCloud accounts. I want to copy folders of weblinks from one iPad to the other. Email solution? Answer needs to be written for a user who doesn't know how to select a folder or a number of icons and email or copy them to something that can be emailed. I know how to do it one at a time by opening weblink and then emailing the link from safari.

Good idea. I've already used the feedback for my general suggestions to improve the way Apple handles bug reports (and tried sending it to Steve Jobs too), but I'll send a specific suggestion for a bug app on the iPhone.
However, my question is whether there is a simple way to send bug reports from the iPhone now that I have overlooked.
