Can I save an email on the iPhone?

I downloaded some email onto the iPhone. It also downloads onto my Mac. When I delete it from the Mac, it disappears from the iPhone. Is there some way I can download the email from the server to the iPhone and keep it on the iPhone, even after I delete it from the server?

You can save it on your iPhone, depending upon what kind of mail you are interfacing with, and the settings you setup to control how it deals with the mail it pulls down.

  • Saving pop3 email to the iphone

    It is my understanding that there is no simple way to save an email on the iphone if you are using POP3 email.
    (1) If you are using IMAP, then you can set up folders on the server and that works. GMAIL and many other accounts are IMAP and so you can forward email to those accounts and then use IMAP. However, Earthlink does *not* support IMAP, only POP3. Forwarding my Earthlink email to GMAIL seems like a silly cludge to me.
    (2) If you really need to save an email, best trick I have heard is to "reply" and then "save as draft" and cancel out. This is also a cludge but should work for the email of your travel documents or other timely information that you need close at hand.
    (3) Another trick is to Copy entire text of email and paste to a note. Again, this is a cludge.
    ANY BETTER IDEAS???
    COMMENT: I will be much happier with iPhone when they pay some serious attention to business folk who need (a) to be able to save email messages locally on the iPhone for quick access; and (b) need to access the "comment" field for long calendar or contact entries (where I often take notes). Both of those features work much better in Android and Blackberry and it is disappointing that Apple does not fix......

    Forwarding email through Gmail works beautifully. I have an old Earthlink account that I still get some mail on so I have it pulled through to Gmail. Gmail neatly tags it as having come from the other account. I also have Gmail set so, if I replay, the receipient still sees it as having come from Earthlink. It's as fast as when I was getting the Earthlink email directly. It takes a couple of minutes to set up but I would hardly call it a kludge. Try it. You may find it solves your problems.
    Best of luck.

  • I keep getting an error pop-up when I try to access my email. The pop-up says Cannot Get Mail  The connection to the server failed.  I get this pop-up on both my iPhone 5 and my iPad. I can still access my email, but the pop-up is real annoying.

    Hi StuNYC,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're seeing an alert message when opening Mail on your iOS devices. Do you have multiple email accounts setup on the devices? Take a look at the article below, it provides suggestions that will resolve most issues that  cause an alert like that to appear in when starting the Mail app.

  • How can I save an email as plain text when the save as is greyed out?

    How can I save an email message as a plain text document if the saved as command is greyed out? I am using OSX Mountain Lion. Macbook Pro thanks.

    OK, but is it happening to you with all messages or just some messages? If just some, can you characterize which ones? (Maybe messages with only one "alternative*" form, or with the "wrong" alternative for displayed, or messages containng images but no text?)
    * By "alternative" form, I mean in the sense of Mail > View > Message > Previous Alternative or Next Alternative or Plain Text Alternaive or Best Alternative.)
    Similarly, can you characterize the circumstances under which you cannot save an attachment?

  • TS3899 I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

    I can't access my yahoo emails in the email in the iPhone 5c it was working perfectly fine earlier an now it quit

    I have a similar problem. I was receiving email on my iPhone for months, and then it quit working. When it quit working, I continued to receive emails on my iPad even though the server and port settings were exactly the same between the two devices. I tried deleting and re-adding my email account on the iPhone and restarting my iPhone, but I still couldn't receive email on the device. The only way I could get email to work on my iPhone was to switch to using a POP3 email server (this is the server that my phone auto detected when I re-added my email account) -- the server that was working previously and that is still working on my iPad is an IMAP email server. Since the IMAP server settings continue to work on my iPad, it seems that the problem is with my iPhone and not my email server.

  • HT201320 When I access my email from the iPhone, hit "inbox", the new messages appear briefly, but then just evaporate.  I can't find them anywhere - not in inbox, not in junk, trash, saved - nowhere.  Can anyone tell me what is happening?

    When I access my email from the iPhone, new messages appear only briefly and then immediately disappear, before I do anything.  Only old messages that were already in my inbox are visible.  I can't find the new messages anywhere -- they have not moved to Saved, Junk, Trash, anything.  IT is like the iPhone just ate them.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

    If you have a POP3 account this means that another "client" email program has retrieved the messages and deleted the messages from the server. You need to change the server settings on that device to leave the messages on the server.
    If you have an IMAP or MS Exchange account this means that someone read the messages on another device and either deleted them or moved them to another folder. Or there is an automated script that moved them to another folder.

  • TS3899 hi - why can't i delete emails once from iphone and ipad at the same time?

    When I delete emails from the iphone they still appear in the ipad. Why? How can I delete from both devices at the same time?

    You can and it should be automatic depending on your refresh rate.  If your phone and iPad refresh every hour, or only on request, then the iPad will not show the change until you refresh the email account.
    Next time you delete emails, try it....Refresh the screen on the iPad.
    This only works if iPad has internet connection.

  • How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer ?

    How can i check my mails on the iphone and make sure that the mail wont pop up again on my computer/ will be deleted on the server ?

    For that kind of connectivity you need to be using an email account configured either as IMAP or Exchange.
    IMAP & Exchange accounts will maintain a sync across all your devices, so if you read / delete a message on your phone, it will disappear from the server as well. This cannot happen in POP email accounts.
    If your using gmail, instructions on how to set up exchange / imap are here http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&topic=14252
    Alternatively, if its anything other than Google, you will need to contact your email providor or IT department (if your email address resides with an enterprise environment) to get the correct settings.
    Hope this helps!

    Hi,
    I know the function "write to spreadsheet file.vi"
    can append the data
    to file. You can use the "concatenate strings" to display the date,
    time as well as data... Hope this help.

  • How can I sav an emailed .mov file to my iPad?

    How can I sav an emailed .mov file to my iPad?

    Yes there is, if you hold down the attachment widget in the email once the video is downloaded, it will give you a series of options to save it to, including camera roll. 
    Hope this solves your question.

  • Can I save my photos from my iPhone to iCloud/iTunes, and then delete them from my iPhone to  free up space on my iPhone?I would  still like to keep them somewhere where they can  be accessed.

    Can I save my photos from my iPhone to iCloud/iTunes, and then delete them from my iPhone to  free up space on my iPhone?I would  still like to keep them somewhere where they can  be accessed.

    One option is to turn on iCloud Photo Library on the phone and go to Settings > iCloud > Photos and turn on "Optimize iPhone Storage." Then you don't delete the photo from the phone but it does occupy significantly less space. More information in iCloud Photo Library FAQ - Apple Support

  • HT1430 why can't I send emails via my iphone & ipad?

    Why can't I send emails from my iphone & ipad? Everything worked fine last night, but I updated my software yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I've been having the same problem with one of several email accounts on one iPad2 and one iPhone5.  It has been driving me crazy.  I have deleted and reinstalled the email accounts more times than I can count and was ready to throw the device out the window.  However I just found a post from another user who stated that they were able to solve this problem by confirming that the outgoing mail server password was corrected.  Apparently they found that after an upgrade the old password was retained by the server.  I had never checked this because it's a few extra steps to get into the outgoing mail server.  When I did I found that it was incorrect.  Once changed, I was able to send the email again.  Problem solved!  Also I agree that the other user was rude in commenting to you the way that he/she did.  Hope this helps you
