Cannot Delete Email Messages after Update

After installing the newest OS update I cannot delete my email messages using the delete keyboard button or using the onscreen options.  The delete screen does open up but the delete option is greyed out.  I am able to delete messages by using select more and then delete.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have the same problem affecting 3 different email accounts on my q10, one of which is a corporate account requiring IT support to reinstall. This solution is not practical for me. Any better ideas? I knew I shouldn't have done the upgrade. Another reason to regret not switching to an iPhone!

  • I cannot search through messages after updating to IOS 6.1.2

    After updating to IOS 6.1.2 i cannot search for messages

    Hello jrobbertse,
    I use the search feature in Messages often, and I would be concerned if it wasn't working as well.  I found some steps you can take to help resolve this issue:
    Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone
    The article is for a frozen and unresponsive iPhone, so the step to recharge the iPhone is not relevant to you.  All the other steps in the article would apply to your situation though.  Before you go through the step to "Restore iPhone," you should definitely back up the contents of your iPhone:

  • Cannot delete email messages

    For no reason at all my BB Curve will not allow me to delete prior messages..and all messages are starred??
    This started about 2 days ago...Any ideas..I have powered it down and restarted ..but still no joy!

    WOW what big font! Sounds like shouting.
    Please turn it down a bit. Welcome anyways.
    Mine does exactly the same withgmail but this fixes it
    The Blackberry is designed to be reset by removing the battery whilst the device is powered-on. Leave the battery out for a minute or 2.
    See if that resolves the problem.

  • Cannot restore my messages after update, please he...

    Hello everybody,
    i've recently created a full backup of everything on my 5800 XM Phone, and attempted to restore it after software update, everything is restored , except the Messages.arc , i think because there was a 7MB 3gp file in my inbox, 
     Phone restores successfully (!) without errors, but nothing is restored in my inbox or folders, just delivery reports are back. to check if the file is corrupted or not, i used Noki 2.0 , its OK, but because im from IRAN, i cant purchase the full software and trial version just doesnt do it. 
    is there a way to workaround this, delete the 3gp file from archive or something else?
    please help me, i need my text messages, i cant afford to lose them.
    Sorry For My English.
    Sallar

    Oh !thanks for replies! im truely amazed

    Ask Apple to re-enable it. I had an unauthorized purchase last October. They disabled my account until the problem was solved. However, I asked them to reopen it, and they just asked me to provide some security information (billing address, a recent purchase you made, etc.), and then they re-enabled it.

  • Cannot delete emails on iPad

    Could someone please let me know how to remedy this problem I am having with

    A pop up message appears alerting me that it cannot move mails to trash?

    Hello, Joe. 
    I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device.  If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included an article that walks you through the process of an application close.  Test the results after processing these steps.

  • Cannot delete emails

    Hi,
    I sent some emails with large attachments (up to 10MB) copied to me and one of them appears in the inbox in a pale orange colour. I cannot delete these large messages nor any other messgaes. Every time I delete a message, it reappears back.
    I cannot receive email messages into my mail account on my computer, but I can see new emails on my iphone. I have 6 email messages that I can read on my iphone that I haven't rec'd on my computer.
    I am using gmail as my email server. I also tried going into my gmail webmail and deleting the large emails but they keep appearing back.
    In addition, my Mail keeps crashing.
    Thanks,
    Aarti

  • Cannot delete emails: no circle to check for delete

    More often than not I cannot delete emails from my iPhone.  When I choose edit no circle appears to allow me to delete emails.
    Any advice is appreicated.

    You can also delete the messages by swiping your finger to the right and the delete button should appear. However, if the way to delete is not appearing when you touch the edit button, you need to try some troubleshooting steps.
    First, power the iPhone off/on. See if that fixes it.
    If not, then reset the iPhone. Do this by holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo, then release. After the iPhone restarts, try again.
    If not, then a restore is next. Restore from a backup in iTunes. If no better, then restore as a new iPhone.
    The reset has no affect on your data. A restore from backup does not affect data, however restoring as a new phone will delete everything off the phone. You will have to resync all of your data back to the phone.

  • Experiencing issues sending/receiving MMS messages after updating to iOS 6

    I, like so many others, have been experiencing problems sending/receiving MMS messages after updating to iOS 6.  Other than that, I really do like the new update.  I have an iPhone 4S with Verizon.  I have been to Verizon, and the issue is not with my plan; it is definitely with the update.  My friend updated her phone also, but her phone is just the iPhone 4.  She does not experience these issues.  Is Apple aware and trying to fix the problem?  It is soooo frustrating!  I cannot send/receive picture messages, nor can I send/receive group messages.  ---  Has anyone come up with a solution to fix it yet, or is it something that Apple will have to do? 
    Thanks in advance. 

    I also am having the same problem. I can't send a pic to anyone who doesn't have iMessage. Also, I don't always get the alert when I have a new message. I never had this problem before I updated to IOS 6. I have AT&T & an iphone4. It's isn't jail broken. I've been reading forums for a couple weeks now and apparently it has something to do with the apn. And I don't know how or even if I can change it. Then I also read it might have something to do with a damaged SIM card. And it might have been damaged when we updated. But those are just theories.

  • Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3.

    Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
    When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
    I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
    I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
    This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

    I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
    When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

  • How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my devices?

    How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my Macbook, ipad, and iphone?

    Hi ST,
    The first screen shot is the left (main) screen after I moved CS6 to the right screen (second screen shot). As you can see the CS6 panels are in front of MS Word. If I click in the Word document they go behind Word. If I switch over to on the right screen the panels reappear but in front of Word again. So I either have to switch back and forth between the two screens if I want to work in CS6 or manually movee the panels over to the Right Screen. It is rather awkward to have to do that. Make sense?

  • I cannot delete emails on iphone 5

    I cannot delete emails on my iphone5. I do not have the delete button visable either while trying to delete on email on batch.

    Not clear what you are asking,  There is no "batch" delete option for the Inbox - all emails have to be deleted individually.  Only the Trash folder has a "Delete All" button shown after touching "Edit"
    To delete individual emails, swipe finger across the preview and "Delete" will show, or select "Edit" on top right and select each one you want to delete.

  • I cannot delete the messages from my mailbox

    I cannot delete any messages from my mailboxes. Please help

    If you are using the native Apple email app you should be able to swipe to the left and delete. If you can't then remove and reinstall the email account. If that does work
    Try a Restart.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.
