Deleting emails on phone, but not doing it on website inbox

when deleting email on iphone5, how do i also get to delete from website inbox (comcast)?

If you only check and read your email on your iPhone you can set your email account to delete mail from the server after it is downloaded to your iPhone. Once you receive email then, the only place it will reside is on your iPhone. This change is made in settings under your email account.
If you don't want it deleted when downloaded to your iPhone because you might want to get that email on another device you should be able to delete those that you might want to delete from the server by using a webmail site in Safari to access your email account.

  • How can I delete emails from phone but not from mailbox?

    I used to have a Blackberry Torch & was able to just delete messages from my phone but they would still appear in my mailbox on my desktop.  Now with the iphone 4s when I delete from my phone it deletes everything, everywhere.

    The only way to erase it is to go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Settings

  • Deleting emails from phone but choosing whether to keep them on server.

    Hi,
    new to Z1, actually new to Android, and wondering how to set up my Z1 so I can choose which emails to delete from just the  phone or delete from phone and server.  Having come across from Blackberry, which asks me whether I wish to delete email from phone or phone and server as well, I would really like to be able to delete emails from just the ohone, or from both with a delete option/choice.
    Is this possible with Android/Z1?
    Just to clarify, I don't want to change a setting so it only does one or the other, I want to be given the choice each time I delete emails from my phone.
    Otherwise pretty happy with the phone overall.

    You can set the phone to not delete any emails from the server from Email -> [menu] -> Settings -> [your account] -> Incoming settings. At the bottom of this menu you have an option for deleting emails from the server.

  • How can I set my Iphone 4s to delete hotmail from phone but NOT server at home?

    I can't seem to figure out how to set phone so that I can delete messages (hotmail) from phone but have them remain on server (home computer)?  I've had to recently delete and then re set my hotmail account and when I did this, I seem to have lost the ability to delete from phone and save on home computer.  thanks

    You're using an IMAP account.  Not sure if you can set up hotmail as a POP account.

  • Delete emails from iPhone but NOT server ?

    Hi all,
    I have just upgraded to a iPhone 5C from a 4S.
    On my 4s, when i deleted my emails from the Mail app, it kept them unread on my computer/ipad.
    With my 5c, it deletes them from the server when deleting on the phone.
    How do I have it so when I delete emails from my 5C, it keeps them UNREAD in my inbox on the computer?
    Looks everywhere, I have all HOTMAIL accounts
    Thanks

    You will need to set up the Hotmail account as a POP3 account instead of an IMAP account.

    How do we delete apps from ipod 4 when using same account as iphone 4s, we can delete from the phone but not the ipod, and when i get an app on my phone it automatically comes up on the ipod and visa versa, now ipod is full,

    Read the article from which the thread was posted, it clearly defines how to use multiple iDevices on a single computer.
    Sharing an Apple ID is not an issue.

    Why do you need to access your email?  To reset the password?
    If you're trying to change the password, you don't need to go to your email.  If you know the answers to your security questions, you can reset it without using an email, as explained in the first section of this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5787.  If you don't, you can contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

  • How can i delete my icloud account but not the password to turn off the find my phone

    how can i delete my icloud account but not the password to turn off the find my phone setting

    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iPad and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

    How did the photos get onto the phone ? Only photos taken with the phone or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the device. Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from on your computer and then re-syncing.

    iDevices are not and have never been backup devices.
    Authorizing a computer does not cause media to magically appear.
    Media is only where the user puts it.
    Copy the ENTIRE iTunes folder from the old computer to the new computer.

    In iTunes under the Apps tab for the iPhone device just uncheck any app you don't want synced to the phone. When you next sync the app will be removed from the phone but remain in the iTunes library.

    How do I back up the calendar and contacts from my iPhone5 to my new macbook pro(10.8.3)? I have backed up the phone, but it does not transfer the calendar or the contacts. If I check them in the sync area and then back up the phone again will they transfer or be erased? I am a bit gun shy since my previous macbook pro committed suicide and I lost a ton of info there.

    Copy everything from your backup copy of your old computer.

    I backed my old iphone up to my computer and bought a new iphone.  When i backed my new phone up I now I have an icloud photo (from my computer) album that I want to delete from my phone but I do not have the option.  Please help.

    If the album was synced to your phone from your computer, it can only be removed by sycing it off.  To do this, deselect the folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and sync.
