Creating Folders in the email app

I have an IPad mini and am trying to create folders in the mailbox section. There is Inbox, VIP and Trash. How do I add more folders to save mail messages? Is this possible on the Mini?

You can only create folders with IMAP Mail e.g. Gmail
Not possible with POP Mail.

Is there a way to create folders in the pictures app?

Since I got my Playbook I've been very impressed with the camera quality, way better than my phones 1.3. So I've been taking a lot of pictures. I have taken a lot of my car because I'm making a website for it and want a lot of pictures of it, I take some random ones just for the fun of it, and in school my friends take pictures of themselves with it (it blows the ipad 2's camera quality away) I'd like to put them in separate folders in the pictiures app so that way I don't have to go through all of them and if people want to see the pics they took in school they don't have to go through all of the ones of my stuff on there. I know there is automatically a folder for downloaded pictures, and another for wallpaper like if you got a wallpaper app and download pictures from it. All of my pictures I've taken are in the "camera pictures" folder, so is there a way I can create folders in the app and organize them?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you create the folders as a child within the main pictures folder, then they will show up in the app separately. I have many folders with pictures in.
You will need to move the photos manually - they will automatically go in the Camera folder.
Hope that helps.

Hi I can't seem to create folders to save emails in. I have added a new mailbox, but it doesn't show up on the left of the screen. What am I doing wrong?? Thanks

HI. I can't seem to create folders to save emails in. I have added (several!) new mail boxes, but they do not appear in the menu on the left of the screen. How can I access/view them? Many thanks

Well, just to confirm the process, open Mail and click on the word "Mailbox" up at the top pf the screen in the menu bar. Then click on "New Mailbox" in the list. In the window that opens, enter the name you want for this new mailbox. The new Mailbox will be located over in the left hand column under the heading there, "On My Mac". If you cannot see the mailbox there, then it is "hidden" under "On My Mac". You will need to hover your mouse cursor over the phrase "On My Mac" and just to the right the word "Show" will faintly appear. Click on "Show" and your Mailboxes under "On My Mac" will appear.

Creating Albums in the Photo App

How do I create albums in the photo app on my iPad if I don't have a Mac or pc to sync to?

With iOS 5+ you should get an Edit button at the top of the Albums screen in the Photos app which lets you create new albums, and you can then copy your photos into those new albums - the photos are only copied or pointed to by those new albums, so if you delete the original photo on your iPad then it is also deleted from all albums that you've copied it into.

The email app do not open any of displayed messagess.

In attempt to fix the problem I did close the email app and rebooted the device by holding the sleep and home buttons till the apple logo appear. Now the app began to crash after click on the message's title on the left sige barr on the scean. Any solutins exept restoring ftom backup? The iPad is runing "IOS 5.1.1". The email app can not be deleteed, I think.

Is it a particular email that you are trying to select ? If it is then it may be a problem with that email so you could try deleting it by logging into your account on a browser.
And by closing the Mail app do you mean just minimising or closing it via the iPad's Taskbar ? If you haven't tried closing it via the taskbar then you could also try that : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar at the bottom of the screen, 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.

The email app

I have an AOL account but usually get to my email on AOL via Safari. It seems to work better and faster than using the Mac desktop AOL has. However, how come my email box on safari is different than my email box when I go to it from the AOL desktop?
In other words, my AOL email box via safari is more updated. When I go to my AOL email box via the AOL desktop...it seems that there are older emails in it that I've already read and even trashed when I saw them in safari.
Why does that happen? It never bothered me, I just used safari to get to AOL, but now that I have a Touch, when I use the email app that came with it...my AOL email is outdated. It's the AOL email box I get on the AOL desktop, and not the more current email box that I can access through safari.
Does anyone even understand what I'm asking and experiencing?!!!

Hi there!
I am almost sure you have your email settings at AOL to "leave copy on server" or somting similar to that. If that is the case, even if you delete an email it will always be on the server, so when you go and use another app to access your mail, it will download all email. You might be using POP instead of IMAP...
Good luck, Rick

What is an Exchange account? When I open the email app I get the message "Password Incorrect. Enter the password for the Exchange account "Exchange""

An Exchange account is an e-mail account serviced my a Microsft Exchange server... Typically a corporate e-mail account. It used to be possible to configure a free gmail account as an Exchange account, but it is no longer possible to set one up that way.

I received an e mail to access my friends photo stream but I am not able it says to use the email app

my I mac is 2.93 Ghz intel core 7 8g capacity i received an invitation to see my friends photo stream and it says to use the email app i tried it just brings me back to the same page to use the email app any suggestions

You'll need iPhoto '11 (available in the Mac App Store) to view them in iPhoto on your Mac. When you install it, you'll be able to go to System Preferences>iCloud and check Photos. Then when you subscribe to the shared stream you will find it in the iCloud section of iPhoto (see below).
Otherwise, you can ask the owner of the shared stream to enable the Public Website option and send you the link. This will give you a link to view them on the web from your browser.

Hi, after updating this morning to Mavericks, I cannot access my Gmail content on the Email App. I am using Macbook Air. Thanks.

New email on iphone 6 IOS 8 is delayed and won't update until you lauch the email app

New email that is received on an iphone 6 (IOS 8) doesn't update # until you actually launch the email app. At that time the new email badge updates and VIP notifications are activated. How do I correct this so that it updates immediately as email is received.

Hi Georgiegog,
If you are not getting updates in Mail until you launch the app, you may want to check in Settings to make sure that Push delivery is active, as noted on this page:
Mail settings - iPhone

Using the Email App?

Does sending email via the App on the home screen incur any fees if I only use WiFi and have my data block on? I was not sure if Verizon has some way of charging for that use or not, even though you may have data blocked.

Hey, rich215. No, you will not be charged for using the email app if you're on Wi-Fi and have data blocked. The only charges associated with using email are data charges, and you have that covered.
A scenario where a customer could unknowingly be charged is if he didn't have a data block and had email set to sync at intervals, rather than checking it manually ... then he'd be charged for email syncing when not in a Wi-Fi area.

How do you create folders in my email account using a pop server. If not possible is there an app that makes it possible or does the new iOS5 make it possible?

Organizing emails with a POP server

This is very disappointing, and i find it hard to believe that Apple would do this intentionally. It worked on previous versions of email application. Apple please don't dishonor the image of Steve Jobs this way. Fix this right away. I can't think of anything more basic than being able to organize the email that you download into folders. This absolutely ***** ... What a stinker.....
I can't think of anything more idiotic than invoking the memory of Jobs here. Are you truly unaware that the iPad and iOS is pretty much exactly the way he wanted it to be, just like about everything else Apple?
As to your claim of "previous email applications", certainly none in iOS ever did that, and the only folders you can create and manipulate in POP accounts are those local to only that single machine or platform, not particularly helpful or desirable in today's environments.

Some (not all) emails disappearing / deleting themselves from folders in the Mail app on iPhone 4S

I am having an issue with some of my emails disappearing on my iPhone 4S and I am wondering if anyone else is experiencing similar issues and might offer a solution? I have three email accounts on my iPhone 4S and iPad 2 (of which include my iCloud @mac.com and Yahoo!) and all are set up as IMAP so that I can be sure both devices remain in sync at all times. The issue occurs when I go into any of my archive email folders, in any one of my three email accounts and let the iPhone sync with the server so that it is up-to-date. Sometimes - not everytime - I will watch as one of my most recent emails that is cached on the phone suddenly vanishes as it pulls down the rest of the emails archived in that folder. As soon as that email vanishes, it will then automatically remove it from the server (being that it is IMAP) and that email is then gone for good. It has not been moved to trash or any other folder because I can subsequently log into Yahoo! mail for instance and do a complete search for it and it won't find it at all. At first I thought it was my fat thumb (!!!) that had acidentally hit delete on the email but it is happening around twice a week and it has only happened since getting my iPhone 4S. I have contacted Apple support by phone and they suggested completely wiping the phone and restoring from backup, of which I have done. I have changed various settings such as showing 50 recent messages rather than 1000, turing on "organize messages by thread" and "ask before deleting" and trying that for a week but none of that has helped. I have a feeling this is an iOS5 issue rather than a hardware issue because my iPad 2 has started to do the same thing and it never did it before I upgraded to iOS5. Nor did my old iPhone 3GS that I had for two years. I am losing important emails and I'm getting to the stage of thinking about never opening the Mail app on either device for fear of losing any more important emails. I'm considering resorting to logging into Yahoo! and iCloud webmail via Safari instead which is a bit of a pain. Very sorry for the long message but thought i'd best be as thorough as possible. If any of you guys have had similar issues, or if you have any suggestions please feel free to chime in. Many thanks.

Thanks to everyone for their replies - I thought that it was just me with this issue but clearly not. Also thank you to Mil_Prep and S2Linda's suggestions, unfortunately all three of my email accounts do not have a "Mail Days To Sync" option - I believe that this option only appears in Mail settings if the account is an exchange email account. Even if I was able to adjust the time period of emails to sync, I don't think that it would help because the email(s) that are going missing can be as recent as one day old, leaving all my earlier emails in the same folder intact - some of which can go back to the year 2002 for instance. I am still convinced that it is a bug with headers in iOS5. Last week I even had a related problem where I had a new email merge with an old email. The senders email address, subject title and date remained the same but the body of the text was replaced with an old email from 2006! Very odd....
