Confused about item on left rail of Mail

I've noticed for months that, when I search for mail, I sometimes find duplicate copies. I think I've discovered why, but don't understand how to resolve the issue.
On the left rail of Mail, these are the main headings (or rubrics or whatever) I see: MAILBOXES (which has within it "inbox," "sent," "trash," etc.); REMINDERS; ON MY MAC (all my sorted sub-mailboxes). But then comes a weird one: [email protected] (i.e., my gmail address). It's as prominent as the other titles, though my gmail address also appears at the top, under MAILBOXES.
Under this final heading were duplicates of some of the folders in MAILBOXES ("sent," etc.) I've deleted the messages in those folders, which ended the duplication issue. But how do I get rid of this extra level of mailboxing? How did it get there in the first place?
(I've checked my accounts and there are no duplicate counts, though in the past I have experimented with using either or both IMAP and POP mail servers for gmail.)

Hi
This is normal for an IMAP account - you'll see the name of the account listed on the left as a top-level folder. You can store mailboxes (folders) in this area and they'll exist on your GMail server.
You should also see "[Gmail]" and within it, the standard Gmail mailboxes - All Mail, etc. You can safely ignore this folder and rely on Mail's implementation of them (in your main Inbox).
So it's not that you have duplicates, but when you do a search, you'll see the message in two places - in your Inbox, and in your Gmail's "All Mail". But it is pointing to one message. Unfortunately, there's no way around this.

  • Send a list item as a bulk e-mail using SharePoint 2010

    My scenario is to e-mail newsletters to a group of users (running into 1000's) and we were thinking about any pro's and cons of using SharePoint here.
    Preferable if the newsletter were embedded in the e-mail so there is no need to give permission to a user to visit the site (or do we have to anyway?)
    Also, a functionality such that, every list item could have an option such as "E-mail to Group 1" or "Email to Group 2" that would allow the item to be mass e-mailed.
    Group 1 assume to be a group of 500 individuals with only e-mail addresses known...
    If SharePoint seems right, then can anyone suggest me how to go about this? If it is possible with OOTB/designer?

    For you scenario, you could explore ECB Menu action using SharePoint designer.
    The logic would be first fire up SharePoint designer and create an ECB menu to start a workflow ie initiate workflow in SharePoint designer (you need to create two workflows each for Group1 and Group2 to make it simple)
    Next step would be to create a workflow to send an email to the selected group and use item values within the workflow to create the newletter.
    here are some reference on how to -

  • Swipe left is deleting mail messages even when swipe is disabled

    Swipe left is deleting mail messages even when swipe is disabled. I had it set to "Flag", but it was still deleting them so I tried disabling it.
    It does this only with my Exchange account, not other mail accounts. Running iOS 8.1, but it did it with 8.0, 8.02 as well.
    Anyone else experiencing this? any fixes?

    Thanks, that got me on the right track.  Searched a little more and changed the end to:
    tell application "Mail"
      (* do stuff *)
              set theSelection to selection
              set theMessage to item 1 of theSelection
              set theAccount to account of mailbox of theMessage
         set mailbox of theMessage to mailbox "Trash" of theAccount
    end tell
    And that seems to work.

  • I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please!

    I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please! Also, I still don't understand exactly what the benefits are. At the moment it seems a lot of hassle to change a system that's been working perfectly well and that I'm very happy with. I'm not at all sure whether the mac mini (1.66 GHz INtel Core Duo) can be brought up to the relevant spec to run ICloud.  Any thoughts?

    There are two aspects to iCloud.  One is simply getting an account, or migrating a mobileme account to iCloud.  The second part is using the various features of iCloud to sync contacts, calendars, use music match or photo sharing, and store iWorks documents.
    First to get an iCloud account:
    If you have a mobileme account, you can migrate by simply logging onto www.icloud.com (ignore any references to Lion and just click through to complete the migration).  If you have OS X Lion or an iOS 5 mobile device, you can create an iCloud account on that device using any valid AppleID.
    Once you have an account, you can use JUST the mail account if you wishi - it is a standard IMAP account so you would set it up like any other IMAP email account you have, in whatever client program you use to read email.
    To use the OTHER feautes of iCloud, your computers will have to be running OS X Lion (10.7).  Your iPhone 3G will never be able to use iCloud as it cannot run iOS 5 (you need a min. of an iPhone 3GS to run iOS 5).
    The requirements for OS X Lion are here - http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html  You need a min. of a Core 2 duo processor so you mini is not capable of running Lion.
    So, in your case, the single reasons for iCloud would be if you have a mobileme account, then use the online www.icloud.com to migrate your account so you do not lose your @me.com email address.  You can use iCloud email (without using any other iCloud features) by setting it up as IMAP mail with these settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
    If you want an iCloud account and do NOT already have a mobileme account, you will need to upgrade one machine at least to Lion in order to be able to create an iCloud account.

  • Change behavior of 'Please select a forum ...' box in updated left rail

    Hello,
    I like the recent change to the selected forums that are displayed in the left rail. However, I think that it would be helpful for the action of clicking on the 'Please select a forum ...' box to be similar to what happens when you click on the [ view all
    ] link, rather than expanding into a list view.
    If you'd rather keep the list view (which is fine by me), I think it would be helpful for the forum information card to appear if you mouse over the forum name. I believe that this will help people find the proper forum when they are looking for forums to
    add to their views.
    Don't retire TechNet! -
    (Don't give up yet - 12,700+ strong and growing)

    I would have to disagree about the "View all" format. I have always found this format extremely clunky. I prefer the list box.
    In fact I do not really see the reason for the "View all" link any more.
    But I agree about the mouse-over (provided it has a delay!). Right now the forum information is only displayed by mouse-over
    after you have made the selection.
    Also, do you think it is entirely obvious that the 'Please select a forum...' box is a search box? I did not realize this at first (but I am notoriously UI-challenged). Perhaps when you first click on the box and the forum list appears, the 'Please select
    a forum...' text should disappear and a "search magnifier" should appear. Maybe also, clicking in the box should toggle between the selected list and selectable list. Currently you have to click outside the box in order to see the selected list.

  • Confused about color vs. b/w photos for printing...and more

    I reading confusing things about exporting a PDF for printing with both color and black and white images used in the same document.
    If I export to PDF and do a soft-proof and it looks okay, is that sufficient? If so, what's confusing about that, since this is my first print project, which Simulation Profile do I use? Is there a chart somewhere that compares U.S. Web Coated (SWOP) v2 to let's say 80 lb Gloss book with Aqueous coating (C2S)?
    I don't know what any of this means. So, is there a good article on this site, elsewhere, or an online printer who can help a rookie like me ensure I end up with a decent product?
    UPrinting.com advertises a "Free Project Review" that includes the following:

    Proper text spacing (compressed/expanded)
    Narrow borders that are at risk of being cut
    Compliance with USPS Mailing Guidelines
    Bindery setup for multi-page artwork
    What should I do? Is this trustworthy as long as I get a contract proof? Is there a "Go To" online printer that everyone loves (not sure you can recommend that here) or should I seek out a local printer?
    I'm using CS4 and have a file that's (maybe) ready to go but am looking at a learning curve of days if not weeks if I have to figure it all out myself.
    Thanks everyone.

    InDesign puts grayscale and B&W (bitmap mode) art on the Black plate, where it belongs, so if you soft proof using the CMYK profile for your expected output conditions your preview will be accurate for the grayscale and B&W images as they will appear in print. presuming your monitor is calibrated and profiled so that you can trust what you see.
    Aqueous coating is applied AFTER the printing to protect, and possible enhance the glossiness of, the page (but not all coatings are glossy). This is not the same thing as printing on coated paper, which has a glossy surface and high ink holdout (and improves detail reproduction and usually will geive better color). You should be using whatever profile the printer has specified.

  • Confused about conversation grouping Lion vs. Snow Leopard

    Hello All,
    I just upgraded. Literally just finished. I was checking out mail, and I am confused about how Mail 5 groups messages for conversations. In SL I had Mail group related messages as well, and it's a feature I really enjoy. Conversations just makes it that much better. But, I notice that Lion groups message differently than both SL and iOS. Now, it is no longer grouping emails that are all from various people but are part of the same thread. It is grouping multiple messages from the same sender, even if they have nothing to do with each other, or are only loosely connected.
    It used to be (and still is on my iPhone) for example, that all the emails eminating from a single thread topic on one of my class forums would all group together. They have the same subject line and formatting. It was heaven. Will there be no way of doing this?
    Also, now all the emails from the teacher of that class, regardless of the relevancy or subject line, group together in one conversation. It's annoying in a way, but I think I can get used to that. Does anyone know if these will be able to be changed in the future?
    Thanks

    As a Mac power user - LION IS A DISAPPOINTMENT
    Apple needs to seriously consider briniging back
      • SPACES: the capability to move up as well as down to access applications
         AND have applications stay in a desgnated space makes it much easier
         to run multiple applicatioins - especially in a multi-monitor environment
      • SAVE AS: Saving various versions of a file is difficult with Lion. 
        If I want a 3 versions of a document - with different pictures, it takes too many "clicks" to accomplish
         this task.  LET ME CHOOSE HOW I STORE FILES
      • COPY COMMAND: Snow Leaopard allowed me to copy files to a storage device AND if the file
         was already written to the device - the option to NOT REPLACE the file existed.  This made it
         easy to backup work on a portable drive.
         LION ONLY has two options - copy all or make an addition copy of the file, causing storage bloat
    APPLE NEEDS TO SERIOUSLY CONSIDER PUTTING THESE FEATURES BACK INTO THEIR OS FOR THE BUSINESS AND POWER USER

    The reason for tossing so much money into this machine is no im not rich we or shall I say I am avrage I have a good job and still live with my parants so I have no utility bills to pay except insurance for my car every month but other then that I can save up quickley if I manage my money the right way hehe. But anywho I paid for the new from soyo SY-P4i875P Dragon2 Platinum Edition Motherboard capable of 3.02Ghz and will have a 3.00Ghz in it with HT   I bought it from http://www.Outpost.com/ witch I did love there service all around but if you pay by check be prepared to wait for 2 weeks lol god lee don't they know wow to torture there customers hehe so plz use money orders hehe but they sent it airborne express I belive thats what it is called correct me if im wrong. and that was quick hehe and also they make sure the person gets it too by having me sign for the package hehe I love how that works.

    anyways the scredriver sliped and broke off a micro transister and I was like oh crap and could had cryed for damaging my babie but I belive it was time to move on and that is why it hapened when it did hehe..
    but I called tigerdirect to get back on to the subject and told them what I was confused about and magell was his name I believe and he said yes it was a 3.00Ghz and the HT was what made it clock like a 3.06Ghz processor.

  • I'm confused about 'downloading' options via iTunes

    When updating via iTunes, you get two options: (1) Download & Install NOW or (2) Download only [to install later]. I chose the 2nd option, as I wasn't quite ready to update my iPod touch to iOS 5. The download went surprisingly quick... took only 5 minutes. I thought it was strange, considering that people were Tweeting left and right that it was going to take 5-7 hours for their downloads to complete. When I finally went to update my iPod several hours later, instead of the update being there and ready to install... iTunes connected to the Apple Servers and started downloading the entire iOS 5 from the BEGINNING! Now, I'm also getting the estimated 7 hours to complete mantra. What gives? What the h*** is the purpose of giving me an option to download and install at a later time, if that's now what actually takes place? What am I confused about? Can anyone provide some insight? I'm highly upset right now.

    "I just upgraded a song but i checked back a few hours later to see that the song i just upgraded was available for an upgrade that i already purchased.
    What sense does that make? "
    Er, none at all actually.
    Wanna re-post the question?

  • Confused about the battery...

    Hello everyone,
    I'm from Pakistan and I just switched to Mac almost 2-3 weeks ago. Since, they have proper apple authorized dealers here so I finally decided to get one for myself. I had some confusion about the battery and my system and now I'm getting very much concerned and worried as a matter of fact.
    I installed coconut battery (as few people suggested me) to check my battery status. First of all, it shows the age of my Mac as 5 months, which is pretty surprising since I got a brand new one and even the condition is of a brand new one so I have no clue why did it say that.
    Secondly, I would like to tell the condition of my battery:
    Current Battery Charge: 3591 mAh (I'm using on battery power right now)
    Maximum Battery charge: 4068 mAh
    88%
    Current Battery Capacity: 4068 mAh
    Original Battery Capacity: 4100 mAh
    99%
    Additional info:
    Battery-Loadcycles : 12
    Age of your Mac: 5 months
    Charger connected: No
    Battery is charging: No
    I am just concerned that my battery current capacity decreased to 99% after just 12 load cycles. Why is that? Some people tell that they have a 100% even after using it for a long time and other than that does anyone have any idea why is the age being shown as 5 months when I have only used it for 2 weeks.
    I'm really confused.
    Another suggestion that I want is that in Pakistan, we are having major electricity load shedding so I can't keep it on AC power most of the time so if my computer is shut-down and being charged. If the electricity goes and when it comes back and it starts charging to the point from where it left, will that waste the load-cycle or will it continue to charge it from there without wasting cycle? Does that affect the battery life? (Assuming that the computer is shut-down while being charged)
    Last thing, should I use it mostly on AC power or is it better to charge it and then drain the battery and then charge it and then use. Till how much percent should I keep using on the battery power and then connect the Magsafe connector?
    Please help people
    I'd highly appreciate if you could answer my questions.
    Thank you.

    I was told that it is best to keep it plugged in and connected to the charger when you can, but if you are not able to do that then just use battery power. I just know you don't want too many cycles, which means you don't want to drain the battery completely then fully recharge it. You should calibrate the battery, which is pretty much just draining battery then recharging it, every couple of months if you keep it plugged into the charger and don't use just the battery often.

  • Confused about the instructions for installing MySQL on my OS X client

    I installed MySQL for OS X as recommended here:
    http://developer.apple.com/internet/opensource/osdb.html
    it looks like I managed to created a test database in the mysql directory, but now can't access it.
    Basically, I'm confused about what to do after installing the MySQL server about setting permissions, getting databases to be where I want them to be, etc.
    I tried download phpMyAdmin, since I am used to using that via cPanel on my ISP, but don't know how to use it on my Mac. Do I need to start up Apache to do that? And if I do that, won't it interfere with the mongrel server that I'm trying to use in the separate Ruby on Rails instructions?
    I guess I could probably do all my development online via my ISP, which supports Ruby on Rails and where it is easy to set up MySQL databases, but if I could just figure out how to use MySQL on my Mac it would be fun to try to do this development offline.
    Any hints?
    Thanks,
    doug

    Have you done anything past those instructions? like creating MySQL user accounts, granting permissions, etc?
    There's a whole lot more to running MySQL that just installing it (and I'm not sure why Apple suggest building from scratch when MySQL offer binary distributions which do all the hard work for you.
    Once installed you should follow the MySQL Post Install Instructions for guidance on setting up accounts and configuring MySQL.
    As for the PHPMyAdmin question, yes, you'll need Apache running. Whether that will conflict with any other web services you're running depends on how they're configured. I've never heard of mongrel to be able to advise further there.

    Nevermind - I answered my own question, which is I CAN"T READ ANY BOOKS I purchased in iBooks on my MacBook Pro.  If I want to read on my mac I have to use Kindle or Nook.  Which means any book I've already purchased through iBooks has to be read on my iPad.  Kind of a drag because there are times when it's more convenient for me to read while I'm sitting with my Mac.
