Can't rename mail box

Hope this is an easy one. When I try to rename a mailbox, I can't. I click on the box twice( like how you rename anything on a Mac) and nothing happens. I go to the drop down menu mailbox and "rename mailbox" is grey, not black. I've tried to re-boot no help. Any ideas?

Go to Mail preferences, select Accounts and then choose your mailbox. You should be able to change the name from the account information (change the name under Description).

My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

My icloud emails arent arriving most of the time and a few days ago my iphone and ipad started showing "Can't Get Mail" box. This has not happened before since I set up the iclud email address with the purchase of my ipad about a month ago.

That's one of the weird things.. it recognizes it maybe 10% of the time. And usually, only after I do the two-button reset. Problem is.. since it won't charge above 2%, anytime I try to do a restore or anything like that using iTunes, my device shuts off and I lose whatever progress I'd made.
So, an update... after reading through a bunch of similar complaints (there are literally 1000's of them so there's NO WAY this isn't somehow ios7 related, thanks a lot APPLE ) I decided to try a restore in recovery mode. After 3 hours and several disconnections... I ended up having to just set it up as a new iPad, as the restore did nothing. Weirdly though... as I was doing the restore in recovery mode.. I noticed I'd gotten up to a 10% charge.. higher than it's been since September, so after setting it up as a new device, I turned it off and plugged it in using the wall charger. 2 hours later and I was up to 38%. Still not great, as my iPad, before ios7 could've fully charged twice in the amount of time it took for me to now get 28% more of a charge. And that's with a fully cleaned out device.. so that really ***** and I'm now more confused than ever.
But I'm gonna leave it overnight charging and see what I come up with tomorrow. Sadly, when I paid $600 for it in February, I never expected to have to play "wait and see" with it...

Can not create mail box with iphone5s

I can't create additional mail box entries using iphone5s

I know that this thread is little old but I met the bug now and it is still not fixed and 2 days I lost to find workaround.
I have installed grid for AIX on AIX 6.1 TL6.
I have presented two SAN LUNs with size 1TB, AIX sees two 1048576M size disks ( you can use bootinfo -s hdisk* command). Mutlipathing driver is installed and configured.
I am wondering why there is not so much information on Internet about this bug, becouse asmca cannot work with the bih disks.
kfod gives me the wrong size as yours.
I found in My support following buginfo which describes the bug BUG:9495887
So I downloaded and installed the following patch for 11.2.0.1 : 9495887 (you must know that this issue is not fixed in newer version too. there is patches for 11.2.0.2
So I installed the patch. But kfod still shows the wrong result (so asmca cannot work).
As it is explained as workaround you must create or alter diskgroups with exact point the size of the disk using SQL
For example:
SQL> alter diskgroup datadg add disk '/dev/rhdisk9' size 1048576M;

hello, you have two extension present in your profile (DownloadTerms 1.0 & WhiteSmoke New 10.16.2.509) that could be considered malware.
please[[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset firefox]] and see if those entries are still present afterwards. also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

ICloud mail boxes on Mac don't alphabetize

The first couple of dozen of my iCloud folders in Apple Mail on my Mac are in alphabetical order, but when I create new iCloud folders, they don't automatically alphabetize anymore, so it's a pain to have to go searching through the folders on the left panel of the Mail window. But when I select a message to add it to the folder, the list of folders that opens up in the contextual menu is in the correct order.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem, and if so, have you found a fix?

There isn't a fix, it's working the way it's intended, you can put your mail boxes in any order that you want, just drag them where you want them

Hi,
According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.

I found the solution to a Mavericks bug on the Mail program. How can I share it? Several of my mail boxes stopped functioning properly when I updated to Mavericks. After long hours, I discovered that if I change the name of the mailbox, the content works.

I found the solution to a Mavericks bug on the Mail program. How can I share it? Several of my mail boxes stopped functioning properly when I updated to Mavericks. The title of the mails stored in the mailbox appear, but the content was unavailable.
After 4 long hours at the phone with the Apple staff unable to help me, I discovered that if I change the name of the mailbox, the contents of the mails stored there become available.
Please, make this solution available to other people!

You have found the the way to share it. Include your problem and its solution in a forum post in the Mavericks forums. Then mark you own post with a green solved star.
Note. You won't get any points for that; points are only awarded where you mark someone else's post as either helpful or solved.

How do I rename a Mail box

Since I downloaded Mountain Lion 9.8.2 my Apple Mail box has been renamed with my personal password for all to see on my desktop. Not a good idea you might think but "rename mailbox is greyed out". Why and HELP!!!!!!!!

Found answer through sweat of my own brow. Please forgive airtime waste!! :-(((

Why can't I create mail boxes?

I am unable to create additional mail boxes in the Mail program.

Then you don't have an IMAP email account and you must be using IMAP email for this. You cannot create additional mailboxes on the iPad with a POP account.
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 synced to the device as well.
