Delete iPhone emails from iMac. & email read receipts.

Question 1:
I have three e-mail accounts:
@btinternet.com
@me.com
@royalherbert.co.uk (pop.1and1.co.uk)eceiving
I am happy receiving incoming emails to my iMail account on both my iMac and my iPhone 4S.
What is really annoying is having to delete emails from both units individually.
Am I missing a way that I can delete emails on my computer so that it syncs with my iPhone to automaticly delete the emails rather than having to do it twice?
Question 2:
I used to be happy with microsofts facility to request 'read mail receipts'.
Can this be done on iMail as and when required without the need to set up a rule that applies to all emails?

Thank you Winston Churchill,
Yes, I have migrated my @.me account to iCloud, but it's the other two accounts I use all the time.
The @.me account seems to be something that almost set itself up once I switched to Apple.
I do use it for sending emails from my iPhone 4S, but thats about all.
I will enquire if my servers BT and 1and1 can offer me an IMAP alternative if you think this will solve the problem.
The 'Read Mail Receipt' I mentioned is a very useful Microsoft Outlook facilitiy whereby I could request my individual outgoing emails to send me a report when the email had been received and opened.
Looking at iMail, it seems I can set this up as a 'rule', but it will action this for every single email I send, and I don't want that.
Once again, thanks for your help

Cant delete recurring event from iMac to Macbook Air

I Cant delete recurring event from iMac to Macbook Air.
I have an event scheduled for Wednesday each week, I delete it at end of day. If i delete it on my Macbook Air it deletes fine on my iMac just fine. But if i delete it on my iMac first it stays on my Macbook Air...
I check the preferences and both computers are configured the same way..
It use to work before i upgraded both computers to Yosemite...

Yes and no. AirDrop is used to send a file from one computer to another. A Contact isn't a file so AirDrop isn't the best way to move contacts from one computer to another. If you own both an iMac and MBA and want to keep the two computers synced, the easiest way is to create an iCloud account on both computers. Any calendar event, to do, contact, or note you create on one will sync to the other. If you just bought a MBA and want to move data to it from your iMac you should use Apple's migration assistant. Personally I think the easiest way to migrate is to perform a backup of the old computer to a USB external drive using TimeMachine and then connect the TimeMachine to the new computer and use Migration Assistant.
But can you exchange contacts using AirDrop? Yes. Select the contact(s) you want to transfer, export them as vcards to a temporary folder. Then AirDrop the folder to your MBA. Now run Contacts and then drag the vcards onto the Contacts program icon in the Dock.

How do I restore a deleted iPhone calendar from my iCloud backup?

How do I restore a deleted iPhone calendar from my iCloud backup?

You can only restore the complete iPhone from a backup; you cannot restore selectively.
To restore an iCloud backup first go to settings/iCloud and turn off Find my iPhone, then connect the phone to a power source and within range of an WiFi connection, go to Settings/General/Reset - Erase all content and settings. When the reset completes you will be given the option to restore a backup.

Deleting iphone email does not delete from computer

I am sure I must be missing something simple here....When I delete email from my iphone, it does not delete from my computer (either remotely or by syncing). So when I delete a bunch of emails, the very next time I open iphone email, it retrieves the very same emails just deleted....a viscious cycle. Can anyone assist with what must be a simple setting issue? Thank you.

Nathan C:
Thank you for your help.
When .Mac is configured using the .Mac option on the
iPhone it is always configured as IMAP. For that
account, on your computer are you checking the
messages via POP3, and on your computer, which
program are you using to check those messages?
.MAC Account - Home Computer: Under Mail/Preferences/Accounts it lists the Comcast account (from our ISP) as a POP and the .Mac account as ".Mac". I access mail thru Mac Mail Application and sometimes thru .mac thru the internet. Update on this account- I cleared the inbox and tried another test. Now it seems to be working. I delete a message from iphone and it will automatically delete from my home computer Mail App. and eventually it will be deleted from the .mac server when accessed thru the internet (these take much longer however). In any event it seem this account works now.
Work Account:
As for your work account, when looking at the
settings, it should say POP3, IMAP and Exchange at
the top. The button that is "pushed" is the one that
account is using. The outgoing server should
probably be smtp.comcast.net not smpt. Is that
account using IMAP, POP3, or Exchange?
I know these three options were there when the IT person set it up but now when I access this account in my iphone it does not tell me what was selected (IMAP,POP, or Exchange) under account information??? It seems to appear only when setting up a new account. Am I missing something?
Also that was a typo. Outgoing server is listed as "smtp.comcast.net"
So to give you as much info as I have:
Incoming Mail Server is "Mail.(officeservername).com" and Outgoing is "smtp.comcast.net". (Using my Comcast ISP was the only way the IT person could get the email access from Iphone to work). And to calrify what is happening on the iphone:
1.Email is accessed no problem from iphone, - downloading all new message from my work outlook works fine.
2.When I delete messages on my iphone, however, it does not delete on my office computer which is on a server network. (Visa Versa does work - when I delete a message on my computer it will delete it on my iphone.
3.NOTE : Contrary to what I posted earlier my iphone now is NOT "RELOADING" messages just deleted from Iphone but which remain on my office computer. This means half the problem is solved.
4. THE ONLY THING LEFT TO FIGURE OUT IS HOW DO I CONFIGURE SO WHEN I DELETE A MESSAGE ON MY IPHONE I AM DELETING ALSO FROM MY Computer at work?
(BTW in the above description I am referring to all wireless operation...not when syncing with iphone)
Any final helpful thoughts? Thanks again.

Nokia E71 email read receipt

I'm currently using a E71, running microsoft exchange. I've just been informed that when I check an email on my phone a read receipt is sent to the sender of that email. Any ideas how to switch this off?
Thanks in advance

OK- I just noticed that the synchronization issue is fixed (mysteriously)on my WM6 device. Remember it also had sync issues today and now I have a lighting fast sync rate. Sounds like a MS issue(?) I will try my Nokia when I get home. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Tonight when I got home I popped my SIM into the E71. Since I deleted the program I needed to re load it from Download!.I got an error that read: IM/Messenger download file is corrupted. It would NOT let me download Windows Live from (Download!). SO I loaded my old version of Messenger/Windowslive Version 1.1.8161 and It works perfectly. Don't know what to say about that....
Now I'm festering about the whole signal strength issue when you hold your hand over the back cover-Surely we all knew about this problem...Gotta love It.

Email read receipt

Hello all,
Is there a way to have LiveCycle send out an email where a read receipt is generated, and sent back to the from/reply to user specified in the email component in a workflow? Thank you in advance for any assistance.

It's not supported out of the box.
You could roll your own using Javamail.

How to enable permission to delete iPhone photos from my computer

I have an iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3. I use a PC. I like to pull pictures of my kids off of my phone and save them on my computer in different files. I plug my phone in via USB, open the folder with the pictures and transfer photo files where I want them to be. Once I've moved it, I right click to delete the original photo in my iPhone folder to remove it from my phone. This is how I've done it for years. Since I've upgraded to the new iOS 8.3, my computer tells me I don't have permission to delete these files out of my iPhone folder. I'm very frustrated and can't find any solutions, and I can't figure out if this is a phone setting or computer setting. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Yes, that is always an option, but not what my issue is. For speed and efficiency of what I'm doing on my computer, I want to be able to delete them as I always have been able to do before iOS 8.3. I'm sure there's a setting somewhere, I just can't find it.
Your issue is, that you updated to iOS 8.3, and that does not allow deleting photos from the iPhone like before.
Even a Mac can no longer delete the photos from the iPhone after the iOS 8.3 update, if iCloud Photo Library has been enabled on the iPhone in the Settings > Photo & Camera. Then you have to delete the Photos in the Photos application to delete them from iCloud.

Monitor Safari for iPhone browsing from iMac?

Don't know much about iCloud or if this is even an option. Wondering if there is a way to monitor web browsing (i.e. what sites are visited) on Safari for iPhone on my iMac using a combination of Parental Controls and iCloud somehow. Is iCloud solely for syncing other types of content? Is there an option to disable the 'Clear History' function on Safari for iPhone? Never seen it....worth asking.
I know how to disable Safar for iPhone in the restrictions. Trying to avoid that if at all possible. Just want accountable usage of Safari for iPhone without having to disable it and download some other browsing app that will not match Safari's superb mobile browsing experience.

Deleting iPHONE Emails previously read on a PC

Hello All,
Usually I read my emails on a PC and occasionally on the iPHONE. Recently I saw many emails on the phone and decided to delete them all since they had been previously read on the PC. I do not see how to do this. Is there a way?
Thanks, Bob

Looking at the manual would be a good start. But you can swipe your finger from left to right on an entry and a Delete button will appear. Or you can tap the Edit button and check off a bunch to delete.

ICloud storage issue; Restoring iPhone calendar from iMac after accidental iCloud deletion

I set up iCloud to back up calendars and contacts and for find my phone. Initially, it seemed to work alright. Then I got messages on iPhone that there wasn't enough iCloud storage, even though the storage tab showed that I had used none of my iCloud storage at all. So I turned off iCloud/contacts. In iTunes I switched back from iCloud backup to backup from my iMac.
Later I got the same message about not enough room in iCloud even though only calendars involved. So I truned off iCloud/calendar on my iPhone and was given the choice of keeping the calendars from the iCloud or deleting them (a foolish choice without a failsafe!!!). I clumsily and mistakenly hit delete. My calendars have most recently been synced with my new iMac and appear on the iMac and should also be in TM. But right now there is no data in my iPhone calendar.
When i go to calendars within the iiphone calendar there is a check next to Calender under "from MY Mac" and no reference to iCloud. (There are no separate calendars for me, my wife, and joint. Does this mean somehow these calendars have been merged because of iCloud?)
I don't want to do another sync until I can make sure that the sync with the iMac will resotre the calendar(s) to the iPnone. How do I do this?
Do I have to do anything on the iMac before I try a sync?
How do I avoid these problems in the future? The only thing I really would like from iCloud is "find my phone". How do I keep that capability without backing up or su=yncing otherwise anything through iCloud?
Is iCloud still Beta?

Apple walked me through this and helped me revert to backing up on my iMac, using iCloud only for find my iPhone and iMac. The process, however, is not straightforward and what the respective mac and iPhone support people (yes, they have that kind of specialization) led me through was clearer, if somewhat convoluted, than any instructions on Apple's support or community pages.
Since my main concern was not losing my calendar and contacts information, the key was saving that, via export, to my desktop. Sorry I didn't write down all the other steps - but I see that as Apple's job. Back in the days of the IIC, Apple's manual was a model of clarity and completeness at the same time.
Bottom line is while my immediate concerns were resolved, the underlying iCloud storage issue was not. On my iPhone, I was being told that my attempts to backup to the iCloud failed because I didn't have enough storage, even though I determined almost none of my alloted space was used. This issue is not helped by the multiplicity of settings relating to iCloud, or the interfaces (such as the iCloud on the iMac through Mavericks) which present a screen of icons without additional information.
For my purposes, iCloud remains Beta.

Deleting iPhone Emails

Could someone tell me if there is an easier way to delete sent and old emails rather than putting them all in the trash then going to trash and selecting each one to delete one by one? Is there a way to do a select all then delete?

Why bother emptying the trash? Can't you just set the trash to autodelete every week or month or whatever the settings are?
I use only imap accounts so I never bother emptying the trash -- I do that from my computer as necessary. But I think the pop accounts have an age setting for the trash.

Is there any way I can recover a deleted Iphone backup from my current Iphone icloud backup

I have deleted an old ios device from my current icloud, can I recover this?

No you cannot recover what you delete from iCloud. Sorry about that.

Can't remove deleted iPhone apps from Mac

I haven't been able to find the specific answer to this one.
After removing an app from my iPhone 4S, I also try to remove it from iTunes on my Macbook Pro (Mavericks 10.9).
For example, if trying to remove my "CBS" app (see image below)
Steps to reproduce: Connect phone to Mac > Open iTunes on Mac > iPhone > Apps
I have the option to "Install" it again, but no option remove or uninstall it completely. The "Remove" button only seems to apply to apps I have kept on my iPhone and do not want to remove e.g. the Fandango, Flixster, HBO GO apps.
How can I completely remove/uninstall the CBS app from the list of options? It didn't work well and I no longer intend to use it.
Thanks
