Archived folders/email

I archived some folders and emails and i was wondering how i restore them to the mailbox. I don't see an unarchive button or anything. anyone have any thoughts?
Keith

To the best of my knowledge, this cannot be done from an iOS device. Unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean when you say "archived folders", archived email from Outlook is a local file stored on the computer on which the archive was made, so it can't be accessed from the Mail app on the iPad. I don't know of any way to open an Outlook archive other than with Outlook even if you get the iPad access to the file via FileBrowser, Dropbox or some similar method.

I have had to "re-instate" "Mail" on my 5yr old Macbook Pro after it got "lost"during an s/w upgrade to Snow Leopard v10.6.8. In reinstated version all my Email archive folders are now missing from the screen. How/where do I find them ??

I recently purchased Snow Leopard v10.6.3 in order to upgrade the OSX platform on my 5 year old Macbook Pro. That loaded without trouble. Then I needed to do an online upgrade from 10.6.3 to 10.6.8 (via 10.6.4) and there the trouble commenced !! Somewhere along the way, the "Mail" application simply disappeared! On advice from Apple telephone support, I did a "selective" reinstall of "Mail" from the Snow Leopard disk, but the version of Mail it loaded (v4.5) was wrong for use with OSX v10.6.8 and so it kept asking for the 'latest" version (v4.6) and just would not work. I tried a "Fix" download provided on the Apple site, that didn't work.
I spent 2 hours at the Genius Bar of my local Apple Store and they finally found a fix, after some difficulty. Apparently there had been a programming error somewhere in one of the Apple update downloads.
So now I have "Mail" back - but the Mailbox folders now not as they were before - particularly they do not contain my archive Folders that I had been using to store certain historic emails.
I think the folder structure on "Mail" is now identical to that on my "BT Yahoo" screen - whereas before they had been different. My local Apple Store told me that it was practice now to synchronise the "Mail" screen and (for example) the BT Yahoo screen to be identical. This is well and good going forward - but does not help me with access to my historic "email filing system" !!
Anyone help me find those missing folders ?? They must be stored somewhere, but where ??!!
Cheers

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Emails multiplying in Archive folders

I am using Yosemite Mail with Gmail accounts. Every day I discover emails that are sent to Archive folders in Apple Mail, and often multiples of the same emails. Some emails even skip the generic mailbox ("Inbox") and end up in Archives.
I've set Mail Account Preferences for the account to NOT store anything (junk, drafts, sent) on the server.
I've set Gmail Settings to AutoExpunge OFF and "Move the message to Trash" when deleted.
It's a mess and difficult to find emails when I need to. HELP!

If they are 72 character they are probably not corruption.
lets try something install this addon https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
Instructions here http://chrisramsden.vfast.co.uk/3_How_to_install_Add-ons_in_Thunderbird.html
Create a new folder and select it.
Point the import export tools as the file through import of an MBOX file (that is it's file type) and see if it can import from the file. There is more than one type of MBOX file and the import tools appear to read through some issues Thunderbird can not.
The Import Export tools appear on the Tools menu (alt+T) once installed

How do i archive my emails & mailboxes like you can do in microsoft outlook

I need to archive my emails & email folders(mailboxes). In microsoft outlook you can do this without it being saved on your server. How can i do this for apple mail?

Hi aouehgeoug,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
In Mail, you can create a mailbox and choose "on my Mac" as the location. This will allow you to store email messages on your computer instead of the mail server.
Here are the steps to create a mailbox:
You can create mailboxes to organize messages. For example, if you receive messages from friends in a book club, you could create a mailbox to store all the messages related to the book club. You could organize your messages further by creating another mailbox inside the book club mailbox for each author you read.
Choose Mailbox > New Mailbox.
Use the Location pop-up menu to choose whether to store the new mailbox on your Mac or on a mail server.
Type a name for the mailbox, and then click OK.
From:
Mail (Mountain Lion): Create mailboxes
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11740
Note that the steps apply to Mavericks as well.
All the best,
Jeremy

?? How do I archive my email on my own hard drive ??

?? How do I archive my email on my own hard drive ??
I have lost all of my past email due to provider hard drive crashes on Hotmail, Yahoomail and Netscapemail over five years.
I thought I solved this problem by having an IMAP provider and Thunderbird. Nope, Thunderbird somehow sees me as a brand new customer after six months of files.
I want my email saved on my own harddrive and saved automatically to an archive file;
?? Would you continue with a bank that periodically empties your safedeposit boxes ??
What is going on here ?? Is there a program that will securely handle my email ??
Thanks for your interest and help. Ken

Just create custom mailbox folders in Mail and store all your mail there, organized however you want. Type "IMAP" in the search box of Mail Help for specific instructions about how to keep local copies of your mail for that kind of accounts. Ask if you need more info.
You could do the same in Thunderbird, BTW. This is a server reliability problem, not a mail client problem. Most mail clients, if not all, allow you to do what you want, but you need to be aware of it and configure the application appropriately. Look at the following thread for an example of someone with a similar experience to yours using Mail:

Do search folders automatically include new system archive folders

Do search folders automatically include new system archive folders as they are created each year.
I decided to create filters and use these to keep track of various types of email, eg wife, mistress1, Mistress2 etc, friends, stamp collecting society, train spotting, bank etc
I can then just archive them all and see them in search folders.
Looks like I will have to go through each property to choose folders each year.
I need to know is this the case before I create 50 odd search folders for mistresses plus the others? :)

Hi Matt
Thanks for the reply but I'm not sure it answers the point I wanted to clarify
I can see your option creates a substructure in line with the original source email but does it also update a "saved search" folder criteria that this folder should be searched.
I am just working from my inbox and previously I would move emails to subfolders (basic filing) but this is a bit tedious dragging or selecting to the right destination. I just want to hit delete or archive then allow the "saved search" folder to work its magic with a filter.
Including a folder does not automatically cause sub folders to be searched so it seemed unlikely that come next year when a 2016 folder is created that the "saved search" folder will see the new folder.
My option still seems best for what I want even if I have to update 20 or so searches each January.
If any developers are watching the option to "include subfolders" in the criteria would get round the problem.

ICloud email folders, emails have disappeared

Hello
I have a GMail email account and a me.com email account. I decided to create email archive folders under my me.com account (ie: emails from friends, work etc) so I can archive some emails and clear out my inbox. I then started dragging and dropping emails from both my gmail and me.com accounts into these email folders in iCloud. There was a lot of emails (circa 7000 odd). Anyway after I had completed this excercise my inbox was clear, however when I went into the email folders in Icloud most of the emails were not there. It seems to have removed the most important emails too so I am now in a bit of a panic.
Previous to doing this I had completed the following to remove the annoying all mail folder on mac mail:
"Went into the GMAIL account via my browser and gone into settings, labels, then uncheck "show in IMAP" for the all mail folder."
Has anyone else had this problem and if so any ideas what I can do?
Thanks
Neil

A friend has done this before, with MobileMe as well as iCloud and hasnt had a problem.
I have checked both carefully (I did this before I posted the query) I have logged into GMAIl via my browser and checked there, I have checked Gmail on my iphone mail app and I have checked gmail on the mail app on my macbook air, Additionally I have done the same with icloud. They are not there.
I thought I was archiving (ie creating folders within iCloud tpo store emails, thereby clearing up my inbox). If there is another way to archive, I would suggest that providing information on how to do this would be more helpful than your response.
It's far safer (and faster) to archive to a local folder rather than one connected via the internet, and if your mail is truly missing from the servers (.me and gmail websites) as well as your devices I have to assume that it is gone, sorry.
As to how to archive locally:
In mail: Right Click on any mailbox you wish to archive and select: Export Mailbox.

Public Folders Email Copy

Hello, I am looking for a exchange powershell command or batch/script file that I could run that I could use to copy emails from the public folders to a windows shared folder. I am able to do this manually by going into the public folder and dragging the
email out and into the shared folder, the problem with this is it will be very time consuming to do. Below would be an example of the paths. As you will see we will have jobs all the way back to 2007.
Public Folder path
all public folders\jobs\2007\01920-00\c
Shared folder path
"\\ss2\inactive jobs\public folders email\2007\01920-00\c\"

Hi,
In Exchange server, there is no related command that can help us to copy emails from public folders to a shared folder. Maybe some scripts can help you achieve this goal, you can ask this question in Script forum, you might get better help there.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/scriptcenter/en-US/home?category=scripting
If you only want to archive emails in public folders, you can try to export public folders using Outlook manually.

Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

Outlook 2010 cannot save to archive folders listed. Message says that message was already moved or that user doesn't have permission.

Hi,
Does this issue occur when you manually archive items in Outlook, do you drag them into the archive folder?
The first thing I wonder is if the .pst file has been corrupted, please run Scanpst.exe to repair the archive .pst file:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/272227/en-us
Please logon your Webmail(owa), check if the emails are available. If the emails have been moved and Outlook Client hasn't synced yet, this issue may occur as well.
We can also create a new .pst file to archive the file, check if the issue persists.
For more information, we can refer to Archive items manually:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/outlook-help/archive-items-manually-HA010355564.aspx
When you browse to the archive file in step 5, type in a new .pst file name.
If my understanding is not accurate, please detail your scenario and provide the exact error message.

If you select one month for mail days to sync, only one month's worth will be synced and available - the last month which will be constantly changing to the most recent 30 days. Select No Limit for Mail Days to Sync.
Show 1000 recent messages is for the selected mailbox only and if there are more than 1000 messages in a mailbox and you have one month for mail days to sync selected, if the last 30 days for the mailbox includes 100 messages, only 100 messages will be available.
Are these additional server stored mailboxes separate mailboxes and what I mean by that is not sub-mailboxes for the Inbox mailbox?
Since you have had this issue with other operating systems, the common denominator is your Hotmail account. Have you contacted Hotmail technical support regarding this issue you have had with other operating systems?
All server stored mailboxes with an Exchange account should be available with the email client used to access the account. If all are not available when accessing the account as an Exchange account with an email client, something is wrong with your setup for these mailboxes at the server level.

I deleted an e-mail account, as I changed e-mail, now all the archive folders associated with that account are gone!! Can I find them somewhere? Help Please!!!

I am running Windows 7 and Thunderbird 26.6.0 I guess I should have made new archive folders under my new e-mail account and transferred everything into them before i deleted the old account, but I didn't know all the archive folders were going to disappear. I know nothing ever actually goes totally away, but I have no idea how to find it. If anyone can help, with relatively simple instructions, geared toward a semi-computer iliterate, I would really appreciate it. Thanks, Len

Hi,
What’s your account type using in Outlook? IMAP account or Exchange account?
Please make sure your Outlook 2013 is updated to the latest version. Then click Send/Receive > Send/Receive All Folders to manually download mailbox data files from mail server to Outlook data file. If it fails, please recreate the IMAP account in Outlook
to have a try:

How to hide BEx reports in archive folders

Hello experts,
Need your advice, we currently have several reports that we want to phase out gradually, but want to keep available in case users would want to use in the few months ahead.
Can you please help confirmif possible to move BEx reports from current infoprovider folders into archive folders and then remove user role access to this folder?
We would prefer this since users currently have access to infoproviders.
I also tried this option seen in one of the earlier blogs but it fails in step 3 since it doesn't accept REP for the Detailed information for DEFTP column (error enter a valid value is shown)
1) Look in table RSRREPDIR with the query technical name. Get the COMPUID value.
2) Go to table RSZELTDIR with the COMPUID value.
3) In table RSZELTDIR, select the Active record (OBJVERS = A) and do Table Entry, Create with Template from the menu. Change the OBJVERS value in the new record to D and save the new record.
4) Go back to the RSRREPDIR table entry. Copy the Active record (OBJVERS = A) and do Table Entry, Create with Template from the menu. Change the OBJVERS value in the new record to D and save the new record.
5) In the RSRREPDIR table, delete the Active record (OBJVERS = A).
Really appreciate your help, thanks!

Full Access Users Cannot See Archive Folders

I am running Exchange 2010 Version 14.03.0174.001, archiving is enabled. In my environment I have users that have Full Access permissions to other users mailboxes and at some point they lost the ability to view the Archive folders. Even with Full Access
granted on the mailbox from the Exchange server the archive folders do not show for the remote user. Has anyone seen this before? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
What's the Outlook version?
Access to archive mailboxes is only supported when a user uses Outlook 2007, Outlook 2010, or Outlook Web Access. Older Outlook versions cannot be used to access archive mailboxes.
Please make sure Outlook version is correct, you can refer to the following article.
License requirements for Personal Archive and retention policies
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/license-requirements-for-personal-archive-and-retention-policies-HA102576659.aspx?redir=0
Please check if these users who have full access permissions can see the archive folder in OWA.
If these Outlook clients are in cached mode, please switch to online mode to check the result.
If you have checked all steps above, but the issue persists, I recommend you use the Test E-mail AutoConfiguration tool to determine if the Autodiscover service is configured properly.

Why yosemite mail multiple archive folders ?

Can anyone please explain how I now have several Mail Archive folders all showing the same mail ?
There were always a few minor bugs in Mail but now under Yosemite it's a shambles.
Search is s shambles, Rules is a shambles editing cut and paste is a shambles and now this.... Archive shambles also.

Nope, they all have the same mails inside from many accounts. Have no idea where the extras came from. Mail is stuffed up significantly in Yosemite.
