Box with a downward facing arrow in mail (iPad)?

Hello everybody,
Can someone please tell me what the box with a downward facing arrow is for that can be seen in mail on iPad in the top right menu? I've used it but don't know where the emails are being moved to.
I have the latest iPad (Retina display) if that helps in any way.
Thanks and Krgds,
Lennart

The icon of a folder with the downward pointing arrow is for moving an email into a different email folder - and you should be able to chose which folder to move the email to when you tap on the icon.
If it's a gmail account then you may have an icon of an arrow and a box that allows you to move (or archive) emails into your 'all emails' folders - that icon will appear instead of a trashcan for deleting email, but you can chose which you have in the account's settings (archive or delete) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4207
There is some more info on archiving here : http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=6576

How do I download tv shows on iPod? Ios7. They are there. A little cloud icon in the bottom right corner. But unlike an iPad, there is no option (cloud with a downward facing arrow) to download.

If they have 'open' next to them then that implies that they are already on your iPad - if you tap on the 'open' button does that open the app ? If it does then they are on your iPad. You've checked all your homescreens and tried a soft-reset to see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

How do I increase the number of dropdowns in the awesome bar when I click in the downward facing arrow

In 3.6 when I use the downward facing arrow to view my most used sites, I only get 4 dropdowns. Is there any way to increase the number?

That issue can be caused by the FastestFox extension.
* FastestFox Options > General, uncheck "Enhance Awesomebar"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Why does my mouse pointer change from a hand to a downward facing arrow sometimes?

why does my mouse pointer change from a hand to a downward facing arrow sometimes?

the-edmeister, you are a genious. I went to "view" then "toolbars" and de-selected "yahoo toolbar" and then moved the curser over my firefox page and it now works completely including the problem area (the top 3 cm of each screen). Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. You have no idea how good I feel know on this otherwise cold, windy and rainy day.

Getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures in ipad 2

I am getting blue boxes with question marks instead of pictures on my ipad 2. I do not have Wi-Fi.

I am getting these question marks on many web sites. I thought it probably had to do with no Wi-Fi but I didn't have this problem until the last month or so and I've had the ipad since December.

New x230 what is the black box with A in an arrow at the bottom right?

It keeps appearing and disappearing on the bottom right of my desktop - clicking on it doesn't do anything. Anyone know what it is for or how to make it go away.
Solved!

On-screen CAPS LOCK indicator.
In desktop mode right click on the wallpaper and select "screen resolution", "advanced settings" and the On Screen Display tab. There are some options there that should help.

Why is there a downward facing arrow on iWork for iPad

I tried syncing my iPad, iPhone4 and iMac to iCloud, and now i can't open my iWork documents on any iOS5.1 device, even my iPad where i made the documents it says i need an internet connection. It has all my uni work on so i'm gutted.

Kind of unfair. I get the cheapest ones on my Nook and all my friends that have Iphones and Ipads are free.
Thankyou for answering me though

Blue dot arrow in box VS NO blue dot arrow in box. Explain, please!

WHAT I SEE IN SAFARI:
Some pages have the "Return to Main Site Menu" text line IN A BOX, but some other pages have that text line NOT IN A BOX. Specifically:
"Photos — Past" has "Return to Site Menu" IN A BOX.
"Photos — Present" has "Return to Site Menu" NOT IN A BOX.
BUT WHAT I SEE IN IWEB: (First of all, in iWeb I formatted all of those R.T.M.S.M. text lines in a box because all text has to be surrounded by a box. Now then:)
In iWeb, I see:
In the page "Photos — Past" the text line (R.T.M.S.M.) is inside a simple box with nothing else on the box.
But when I look at "Photos — Present," the box around the text line has a little curved white arrow in a BLUE dot at the bottom right of the text box.
So here is my ad hoc analytical equation (Remember it's AD HOC.)
Blue dot arrow in iWeb = No box surrounds text line in Safari
No blue dot arrow in iWeb = Box surrounds text line in Sarafi
NOW THEN:
I understand the simple causal relationships, but what I would like to understand is:
1. Beyond the absence or presence of a box around a text line in Safari, what is the difference between a box with a blue dot arrow and a box without a blue dot arrow? Beyond this visual difference in Safari, is there a functional difference which can come back and affect me later on in some way?
2. What did I do differently in iWeb to create a blue dot arrow in some cases and no blue dot arrow in other cases? My memory does not record HOW I made a text line into a hyperlink! Holy smoke, that's a fine line! All I recall is that I selected the text line and hit the hyperlink button in the Link Inspector! Oh-- ok in the first cases I think I put the boxed text inside another box I created. In other words, a box inside another box, and then all of it selected for hyperlinkage. Oh... is that it? <gulp> But I don't remember which is which, and I would have to re-create it on a new practice page.
Thank you in advance for shedding any light on this, because it is REALLY bewildering me. Is it ONLY a matter of boxes around a text line? Or more?

James,
I am impressed with your easy, friendly and mostly, useful replies for many of us....well...newer types!
Your response here to Lorna has answered a question I had not yet formulated....you see...when I started to build my post-"Last Rites 35 Year Reunion" web site (an old age clue!...), I did not realize that when published, the little blue circles disappeared!!!...so... I have learned and continue to do so.
I have spent the past 3 months (in spare time...I work...) organizing the resultant photos from that two day reunion event.
iWeb started me on this path, and my site (http://web.mac.com/larrycook1/iWeb/Cooksite-1/Welcome.html) has many of the issues & challenges you and others have discussed and counselled over that time....unfortunately, I lose the 'threads' of help...so I apologize for interjecting here...I was not sure where I could get "in".
1. The photos on my web are working ok.
2. I have three slide shows created in (Apple) Keynote transposed into QT Pro (7) into .mov & dragged onto three separate web pages.
The first two, "Faces" & "Potpourri" pages show, but the audio wouldn't play so I had to drag in audio separately....then instruct people to push the two buttons to get the 'full monty" effect...a work around, since I have given up trying to solve it....and there is so much else to do in life...
I read your comments about isquint and created a Mp4 from the QT Pro movie...it looks ok in iWeb but ....now
I cannot get the iweb to publish...get error messages like 'can't save the media......movie'.
Since I am low tech...I cannot understand what is going on or how to fix this.
If I try to publish to a folder, will it replace what is in there now or will it just build up...it is not clear for me.
3. I have no idea if purhaps I have too much memory in my site for the movies to be working properly....or am I corrupted?
All & any suggestions welcome. If the above have been answered elswhere, ... could you send me a link?
thanks,
Larry

My mail, when reading an email, has an icon which is like a box with an arrow pointing down into it, what is it for? When I tap it my email goes "somewhere" out of my inbox. It still apperars in "all Mail" mailbox.

My mail, when reading an email, has an icon which is like a box with an arrow pointing down into it, what is it for?
When I tap it my email goes "somewhere" out of my inbox. The email, which was moved from my inbox still apperars in "ALL Mail" mailbox.

That is the "Move" the email icon. Tap on that icon and you can move the email to any box or folder that is in black type on the left side of the window - under the Mailboxes heading. If the type is in grey on the left side - that box or folder is not an option that you can use.

In mail the box with arrow pointing down?

I am trying to figure out what the box with a arrow over it does in mail on the new iPad. I know the folder with the arrow on it lets you select which folder to put the email into. But what does this other one do? I have no clue where it goes right now and I'm confused from the other discussions I have read. Also are you able to customize those icons in the top right corner because I wish one of the icons was a delete icon would be much easier to delete things. Thanks for any advice.

Start here in the section on mail:

Post back if that doesn't answer your questions.

Mail icons - what is the "box with arrow" 3rd icon over?

Hi,
When I am reading an email the 3rd icon on the bottom of the screen looks like a box with an arrow over it. What is that icon? When I click it the email seems to disappear. Once in awhile I see the trashcan icon, but not usually?
Thanks
Joe

From your description, it could be the "print attachment" icon
or "send photo" icon

What does the icon with the Box with a Down Arrow do?

When I open certain messages, at the bottom toolbar instead of a trash can icon I get an icon that looks like a moving box with a arrow pointing down. When I have accidentally pressed it the message disappears. I cant find it in any folder or location? Any ideas what happens to the emails?

I noticed this new icon appeared after the latest iPhone IOS4 update. From my experience, clicking on that icon throws the email into the "filters" I've created in Gmail on my desktop computer. I'm not sure how it would respond if I didn't have a filter for a particular email. I think another forum user mentioned it gets dumped in the "all mail" folder. Not sure how that would be helpful. If someone from Apple could give us the textbook definition of this new icon and it's use, I'd appreciate it.

What is the box with the down arrow in email.

What is the box with the down arrow in the email. it is at the top near the reply arrow.

OKAY....are you guys ready for the answer to this question: "What is the box with down arrow in it in my iPad email?".
This drove me nuts but I stuck with until I figured it out.
When you open a message in iPad, sometimes you'll see a box with a down arrow. Touch it...and your email disappears!!!
Where does it go?
Lay down your iPad and go to your computer...you CANNOT access the Archive folder from your iPad!
1) Go check your gmail account from your computer. When you click on a message, look in the top row of 'choices' in what to do with that emai: back to inbox, ARCHIVE(a box with a down arrow), report spam, delete, move to, labels, and more are your choices.
2) now look in the left hand column and you'll see: Inbox, starred, Important, Sent Mail, Drafts, Notes, Personal, Travel...now mouse over Travel (or whatever your last item is in the column) and "More" will appear.
3) Click on 'More' and "All Mail" will appear.
4) Click on "All Mail" and voila!!! All of those messages that have been disappearing from your iPad are found there.
5) NOW FINALLY, you can click on each message in the "All Mail" folder and you have the option to move them to any folder you wish.
6) UNDERSTAND THIS: You CANNOT access the 'All Mail' folder from your iPad...you MUST use your computer.
Hope that helps all of you who were as frustrated as me.
Ya think Apple would write something about this somewhere!!

I wouldn't judge. I've been to Arch for a week, you know? But as said, it's VERY close to it.
What I dislike after a week is makepkg not handling dependencies automatically (which would be overhead, so probably not appropriate).

i have a problem with mail. the spelling and grammer check box before sending the messege is no longer there. I did everything but cannot get it back. is ther anyone who knows how to get the box with spelling and grammer checks before sending the mail.
Also the mail is acting very funny by not getting the rules work in a proper method. Is ther a software to repair mail.

i did both of them, but still the while sending the mail the diolog box is not showing up and also the spelling and grammer does not do the spelling check.
This problem just started for about 3 to 4 days now. earlier it was working normally.
