Cannot Access Trash Folder In Mail

Hi,
I'm new to the Mac OS and have a new MacBook Pro running Lion.
Whenever I click on the TRASH icon in the MAIL application, the application "unexpectedly" closes and an error message is sent to Apple.
Just before the folder disappears I can see the deleted messages in the folder.
Am I missing a setting somewhere? (hopefully)
Best,
Bill

Hi Allan,
First make sure you have enabled either POP or IMAP (depending on which one you want to use) in your gmail account settings page on the gmail website. Then make sure you follow the setup process correctly: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=81379
Also make sure you set your username in the mail setup window as [email protected] By default it only puts username. You need to make sure the @gmail.com is there too.
If the password is correct, it should work fine.
Hope this helps!

I suddenly cannot access my AOL E mail account via my iPhone. Has worked for ages. Now says username or passowrd is incorrect which it is not! Have reset the phone but still no joy. Any ideas........please! Martyn

Is there any chance your AOL account has been hacked? Check it to make sure your password is still what you think it is.
Also make sure caps lock isn't on when typing your password.

Help!!! where is the trash folder in mail?????

hello everyone,

INBOX
SENT
and the e-mail accounts that I have added...
someone please help me! i am sooo confused!
thank you so much!

I am using IMAP for an AOL e-mail account
Well, that probably explains it. I bet you have checked Store deleted messages on the server. If so, this is not an IMAP issue, but rather an AOL issue (actually, .Mac is IMAP as well).
AOL doesn't let mail clients create mailboxes at the root level of the account directory, only as subfolders of Saved, and I'm not sure even that is possible now.
You may find instructions for setting up an AOL account in Mail here:
http://members.aol.com/adamkb/aol/mailfaq/imap/applemail.html
The instructions are for Mail 1.3, but they can be used for Mail 2.x as well, noting that the Special Mailboxes preference pane is called Mailbox Behaviors in Mail 2.x.
You may also want to read the more general guide the above article is part of:
Accessing the AOL Mail System using IMAP - An Unofficial Guide
BTW, in the case of Trash or Junk, I don't see the point of storing those messages on the server, even if that would work. They take valuable space there for no apparent benefit. I would only store Sent messages on the server (which cannot be done with AOL either).

Accessing trash folder causes folder to lock on server?

Hi,
I've been having this problem. I hope someone can help with some advice:
My workplace IMAP account's trash folder is named "deleted-messages". I use this folder to store my trashed messages on my IMAP server. In Apple Mail, I had mapped this successfully as the Trash folder for about 2 years already. I've been happily using Apple Mail during this time.
A couple of days ago, I could no longer access my deleted-messages folder:
1. each time i deleted a message, Apple Mail would tell me it could not move the message to the 'deleted-messages' folder.
2. each time i tried to view the folder's contents, Apple Mail would not respond and would show me the 'spinning beachball' until I forced a quit.
But I have not had a problem using other email clients (Thunderbird and Pine).
When I logged into my workplace server through a command prompt, I noticed a "deleted-messages.lock" file in my mail directory. I deleted the lock file, and all my other clients are able to access my deleted-messages and delete my mails correctly. However, when I access "deleted-messages" (or Trash) using Apple Mail, I get the same 2 problems listed above, and a new ".lock" file is created in the mail directory.
I can't seem to get around this - I have completely deleted my account in Apple Mail and recreated one, but the same problem arises.
Can someone help me understand what's going on?
thanks!

ok, found the problem - there was a bug with the new imapd service being run...
thanks for reading!

Rd client via rdweb cannot access local folder

hi,
i recently installed remote-desktop web-service on Windows 2008 R2 for remote user to access a non-proprietary Microsoft application.
the installation was made in one box include the application
a. Remote Dekstop Session Host
b. Remote Desktop Licensing
c. Remote Desktop Gateway
d. Remote Desktop Web Access
i have managed to configure it to allow internal and external users to access the application by using RDWeb.
there are 2 outstanding issues here:
1. i tested the RDWeb to access MS Office (Word/Excel) remoteapp and save a doc to local folder.
tried to save it into my local folder, but it always ended-up with an error :
"Network error: Windows cannot access \\tsclient\d\(any local folder given). You do not have permission to access \\tsclient\d\.. "
2. for non Microsoft remoteapp, is there a way (by Group Policy perhaps?) for rdweb-users to locate their local drive/folder within the application?
anyone has ideas to resolve it?
thank you in advance.
rgds.

User cannot access shared folder on a single PC.

This one has got me thoroughly confused.
Over the weekend I'm moved a shared folder from an old file server to a new one. Move went well. Added share and security permissions. Changed user scripts. Check ever users system to insure they had the new share drive and wouldn't notice a thing. All worked well.
Except one user.
She cannot access the share at all. She can access other shares on the new file server. She can access the needed share on other systems. Other users who have access can access the share on her system.
Does anyone have anything I can do beside wiping her profile/system?

I think it has something to do with WPA2/AES key renewals.

Cannot access library folder

I saved a file accidently in my outlook temporary file. I cannot access my library file, get:
The folder “Library” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents.

I didn't know that iTunes had a 64bit download. I have Windows 7 Home Premium with 64bit operation system. I downloaded the iTunes for 64bit and it seems to have corrected the problem. I haven't received the message yet since I did this.

I cannot access to my e-mail from my computer

Since I moved yesterday to ICloud, now is asking me "The SMTP server “smtp.me.com” rejected the password for user XXX". I do not understand what password is asking me. I use to have mobileme and I just can access to my e-mail trought ICloud now. I have a @mac e-mail account, but is not working since yesterday from my computer and from my iphone either. Someone with the same problem?

Thanks!....I did alredy trought mobileme (that was before I moved to ICloud yesterday). I am so confused about all this changes with ICloud. Is supposed I have my @mac account paid until june 2012, and since yesterday in my iphone says "The user name or password to .Mac is incorrect" and another one "you account has expired". My e-mail is not working from my Iphone anymore
Also, I received yesterday an e-mail from ICloud: "Congratulations on moving to iCloud. Your Apple ID for iCloud is [email protected]". Says the same name of my account but with @me....So now my question: is my account .Mac or .me?
When I access to my e-mail now, trought ICloud I put the same account (with @mac) and my same password as usual and I can access but if I try from my computer I am receiveng this message about the smtp.me.com.
Do I have to change something in my computer's settings about my account?
I will continue reading in the communities, maybe I can find a solution.

Cannot view Trash folder using Activesync email account?

I have an Exchange Activesync account set up, and when deleting an email, it is moved to the Trash folder. The problem is that BB10 does not show the Trash folder in the folder list. I have to go to my ipad to view the folder and retrieve the email. Is there any workaround for this? It seems to be by design that the folder is being filtered out.

Hello wandern and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Currently, the Trash folder does not reconcile to the BlackBerry 10 device.
Thanks!

How to access sent folder in mail?

couple of questions:
1) how to access sent mail folder to assure that mail has been sent?
2) how to attach a document to email?
3) how to create additional folders in mail?
using att wifi

I came across your post and thought I'd share Ivan54's post as an answer to your question:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/13103795#13103795
The main thing is that it should be on landscape view to access the folders in your email accounts.
Hope this helps.

When I try to access a Web Link from a mail message it is launching iPhoto and trying to create a subscription. For the life of me I cannot find where I might be able to redirect this to launch Safari instead of iPhoto. No idea how this was changed either?
Can anybody help!

I knew it was sooooo easy, but I just kept glaning over it!!! Thanks Linc.

No trash folder in mail, when I hit delete it says unable to find trash

Ok, new Ipad2 version one (no camera). I use Imap to a hosted website I own. It retrieves and sends mail flawlessly, HOWEVER. There are no other mail boxes there, only the inbox. No drafts, trash, sent, etc. When I hit delete, it moves to the trash can, then a box appears saying it was unale to delte message, click ok. How do I create or "find" the other mailboxes? I apologise for my ignorance, I have never used a Mac before. I love the Ipad, this so far is my only issue (other than finding out I had no camera).
Thanks again, special thanks to King Penguin. Good on ya!

Check the settings in your Mail preferences.
Mailbox Behaviour and see how that is set.
Still, the Trash Icon should still be there. You may have to delete your plist to get it back.

I ran into the same situation recently, and found out that you need to make sure InternalClientsRequireSSL is set to false.
To verify: Run Get-OutlookAnywhere | fl Identity, *ssl
If it is true, try setting it to false.

CAN'T ACCESS SPAM FOLDER FOR MAIL

All of my mail went to the spam fold for the first couple days, I think I got that figured out, but my mail is in a "spam" fold that I can't seem to locate. There are some messages that I need to get to.
If I apple 6 the "junK" fold er isn't acessible.

Make sure your spam filter is set to send email it thinks is spam to a Folder and not to just delete spam. Then you will have the option to check the spam folder.
