Can't View or Delete Messages

Hello all,
I put my MacBook to sleep last night and woke up to the strangest thing this morning upon checking my email. Mail.app doesn't let me view any messages in the preview pane, or when I double-click on them to open them in their new window. Also, when I go to delete them, they don't delete. The delete button at the top of the window turns into the undelete button and the messages remain in the inbox. And even when I click the undelete button, they don't undelete and the messages are still grayed out, still stuck in the inbox. I've checked the settings for all of my accounts and they're all set to move deleted messages to the trash. Any ideas?

Try rebuilding your Mail index:
1. Quit Mail if it's running.
2. Go to Home/Library/Mail and remove the Envelope Index file to your Desktop.
3. Restart Mail and allow it to import your existing mail messages; when it's done, check to see if you can view or delete messages normally again, then delete the old Envelope Index file.

    How can I see my deleted message and message from my icloud

    Huh? You can't. Once you delete something, well it's deleted.
    If you have a backup, that contains these deleted messages, you can restore from that backup, to restore them to your phone. If no backup, or your backup has been overwritten, then they are gone.

    A MacBook will use Time Machine to make local backups so that when connected to an external drive it will backup a lot faster.
    to disable this, you must use a command under terminal.
    to locate terminal, do a search for it under spotlight (the magnifying glass on the top right corner), should be the first hit.
    once under terminal, type the following text exactly:
    sudo tmutil disablelocal
    hit enter.
    you will be asked to input your password, if you do not have a password, you will have to create one before performing this command. after entering your password, hit enter again and close terminal.
    in a few minutes the space taken up by time machine should be cleared.

  • How can we view the error message numbers in the web ui?

    Dear all,
    How can we view the error message numbers in the web ui? It gives the error but no number.  It is possible to debug in web UI so how can we accomplish this?
    Thanks,
    FK

    Hi  Fakhan,
    You can absolutely do that.
    Check the class: CL_BSP_MESSAGES
    Also if you want to find out the exact Message Class and Message Number, go to table T100, type text in field TEXT, you will get Message Class and Message number in fields ARBGB and MSGNR respectively.
    I hope this helps.
    THanks

  • Gmail & Mail 3.0: Sudden new problems--can't receive or delete messages

    For the last two days I've had very odd problems with Mail. They seemed to start out of the blue; the only thing new I've done in this time frame is get an iPhone, which I set up with imap/gmail (I installed Leopard long before these problems started). For a couple of days I was unable to send messages. Then suddenly last night I was able to send but now I can't receive or delete messages. Does anyone know what may be the problem and what to do? Thanks so much.

    I'll add my sad story...
    Since upgrading, one email account will not receive mail - says the server reject my password, although I can retrieve my mail from the web. It is a POP account, although I tried setting up another with the same settings but as an IMAP account, with no luck. Outgoing mail is fine and other accounts, such as .mac and gmail seem to work. Tried recreating the account as a new user (so no old preferences messing things up) and from a new mail program (Thunderbird), but still rejects my password. I will try from an 10.4 machine today to see if I can get my mail.

  • While in Hotmail, Firefox crashed & now I can't open or delete messages, however, on the same computer-different account- my Hotmail works fine.

    While a request to print a sent email was being executed (successfully), my attention was diverted away from the computer screen. When I returned, the Firefox "crash" notice was on the screen, but everything appeared fine so I didn't file a report. I exited Hotmail and later signed in and found out I can not open or delete any messages. I exited Hotmail, switched computer user accounts and opened my Hotmail under the computer's administrative account. Under the adm. account my Hotmail works without a problem. Switched back to my computer user account, signed in to Hotmail and the original problem still exists. What can I do to get Hotmail to work in my computer user account?

  • How many deleted voice messages can be stored in deleted messages

    There are 256 messages stored in my "deleted Messages" on my phone...  How many will it hold?

    It will hold as many as you have memory for. It's a good idea to clear them occasionally. They can eat up quite a bit of storage space over time.

  • Can you retrive a deleted message?

    can you retrive a delete text message

    Besides from backup, you also can use iPhone/iTouch text message recovery software to get them back.

  • How can I get my deleted message back ? How do I hide my contants?

    I Would like to get my deleted message back .
    i Would also hide my contants.

    IF the message that you deleted is in a backup, restoring the backup should bring the message back. Be aware that when you restore a backup, you restore everything in that backup to your device. If your backup is one month old, you will be turning back the clock one month on your iPad with regard to app data, settings, camera roll photos, etc, - if you restore that backup.
    Do not backup the iPad before you restore the backup, or you will simply be restoring a backup that no longer includes the message that you deleted.
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    You cannot hide your contacts in the contacs app, if that is what you are asking how to do.

  • My email accounts on my iphone 4s show the message titles but won't display the main message.  How can I view the main message?

    I am stuck.  I recently travelled abroad and changed the settings on my iphone.  I thought that I had changed them all back but messages in my mail accounts show the titles but when I click into them the main message doesn't download.  Is anyone able to tell me what settings I need to change to be able to view the main messages?

    Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work also do a reset : 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 equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can't view pdf; getting message to launch Adobe Reader and sign user agreement that I can't find.

    I'm trying to view my son's 1098-T on his college's website, but keep getting the message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser."
    When I launch Adobe Reader, I can't find a user agreement to accept.  I have tried relaunching both Google Chrome and Adobe Reader several times to no avail. I've also redownloaded and tried to reinstall Adobe Reader, but it got a message it was already installed. I previously had problems getting the pdf to fill (the form was blank and didn't have my student's info), and reinstalled Adobe Reader before I realized I had to disable Google Chrome's pdf  viewer, which I have since done.

    Sorry. I have a Mac with OS X 10.9.5
    I've since totally deleted Adobe Reader and reinstalled it but have the same problem anytime I try to view a PDF with Adobe Reader.  The college website won't let me save the form, only view it.  If I use another pdf viewer the form won't fill with my son's info; I think it has to be Adobe Reader for some reason
