Deleting mail and moving to "previous" or "next" message

How do you do it...?
for one of my mail accounts, when I delete a message mail moves to the next message... on my main account... after I delete mail, it moves to the previous message.... how do you change/alter these settings?

I believe it has to do with the sort order. When you delete, the selection goes up, no matter which way it is sorted.

It stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Recently, Thunderbird stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Further notes (different user, same problem):
* This is a problem that started in Thunderbird 32
* This involves both automatic (filter) moves and manual moves
* This includes use of keys and hotkeys (the delete key, for example)
* Restarting Thunderbird does seem to "reset" the problem... for a while. I notice the problem most when either I've been away from the computer/program for a while or when waking a laptop computer from a sleep or hibernation state.

Can I delete Mail and then reinstall?

Am a new user with an iPad 2 and with Mail did a sync to bring in my Outlook contacts. Somehow it found some old contact folders too and now have a totally cluttered contacts list!
Can I delete Mail and download it and start again?
Thanks

You cannot delete the application, but you can delete the account.
In Settings, just select the account with the messed up contact list and choose to delete all the info from the iPad 2.
Then, find the mistakes and extra contacts in Outlook, take care of them, and re-sync your iPad.

How to delete mail and trash in OSX 10.9.2 without opening them

How do you delete mail and trash in OSX 10.9.2 without opening them. I don't want to open suspect mail that might cause a problem.

I think you can just drag it to the trash folder. Otherwise you have to select it and press delete. If you have the preview window going, just selecting it will open it. So you have to have the preview window closed.
P.S.
I don't think you can get into any trouble just opening a message in Apple Mail.

Changed email from pop to imap in entourage 2008 and apple mail and have lost a lot of messages

Changed email from pop to imap in entourage 2008 and apple mail and have lost a lot of messages. I am a rookie and don't know what to do to correct the situation

I found this great set of mail AppleScripts:
http://homepage.mac.com/aamann/Mail_Scripts.html
It includes one script to delete duplicate messages. So if we can't find a way to do this right, then I'll just download all the duplicates then delete them. Of course I don't want to actually do that, lets call this the nuclear option.
So can anyone think of a way to make an IMAP account for my gmail without it downloading all the messages again that I have already downloaded?

You seem to be running the latest Firefox 9.0.1 version according to the user agent in your system details list:
*Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:9.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/9.0.1
Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 9.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
*Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
*It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Firefox
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

I have 3 songs that will not download and the volume of error messages from Itunes about these "3" is annoying. I know my way around Itunes but cannot find a way to delete them and stop these Itunes download error messages.

Thank you.

Thanks Mohammad - much appreciated.
I also got a response from Apple who said that there was a problem related to fonts and the encryption.xml file
Once we'd removed this we were able to upload the epub no problem.
It's odd that the system seems to say that all is okay when it isn't. We have to rely on guesswork rather a lot using iBook Producer.
Anyway, all sorted now and thank you again for your contribution.
Best wishes and a Happy New Year!

HT6030 Having major Mail problems since I updated Maverick on my 27" iMac. Delays deleting emails and moving emails to other folders. Anyone else having this issue? If so, any known fixes?

I have an iMac that around 3 years old. Just installed Mavericks when it first was released. I also have a Time Capsule (2TB) that runs my network to my other three Apple devices: iPad2, iPhone 5s and a new Apple TV. Having major Mail issues here. Everything is very delayed and extremely slow. Moving emails to other folders sometimes takes a few minutes and the same goes for deleting emails. Delete them and they don't go into the trash for several minutes. It's getting very frustrating to say the least. Mail also quits very often. Mail also will freeze with the little color ball spinning, therefore I would have to force quit Mail. When the errors occur, it's automatically sent to Apple but there hasn't been an update since 10.9.1 that has fixed it. Apparently, that update was only for gmail issues. Anyone having the same problem? Fixes please?

I have my entire network and all Apple devices setup as IMAP, not POP. If your settings are setup as a POP account on all devices, emails will not erase when deleted on your other devices. Just something to keep in mind. I'm sure you're aware of this but just wanted to throw it out there. Google IMAP vs POP. However, it seems like your having the same issues as I am. I'm going to swing by an Apple store by me and speak to the genius bar and see if they can come up with something or are aware of this issue. Keep you posted.

How can I stop mail on iPad from going to next message when deleting an email?

How can I stop the mail app from moving to the next message when deleting an email?
I like to keep messages as new until I can take action on them, but this just makes an unnecessary step. I do not have this problem on my iPhone, but I am still running 5.0.1 on the phone and have the new iPad 5.1 software.

Hi furiousbalancing,
With regards to deleting messages in Mail, you may find the following portion of the following article helpful:
To prevent the next message from being automatically selected (and marked as read), hold down the Option key when you delete a message.
Mail (Mavericks): Delete messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14900
You can also use Command-Shift-U to toggle a message between Read and Unread (command should be the same in Mavericks):
Mail (Mountain Lion): Keyboard shortcuts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11679
You can also close the Preview portion of the Mail window, which should then require you to double-click on a message to open it and have it show as read (it appears the double click on the seperator may no longer work in Mavericks, but you should still be able to drag it to make it disappear):

Mac mail auto closing mail and cycles to previous message

My MacBook has gone haywire! When i open an email, it closes it immediately and cycles back to the previous message, or back to the folders, or both. anyone got any ideas? too weird

Mail has Smart Addresses that will display the name and email address under Preferences > Viewing, but your issue sounds like a different issue.
Did you setup an outlook.com alias in Outlook.com when it made the transition? If not, add an alias and see if that helps. You can also test sending from the outlook.com alias to see if the results are as expected.
For example if your Hotmail email is [email protected] then setup an alias [email protected]
If that fails, test in a new User.
Create a new User in System Preferences.
Log into your new User.
You can skip the Apple ID setup unless you are testing iCloud.
Select Don't Sign in > Continue > Skip
Open Mail and enter your Hotmail account.
Does the problem go away?

Deleted mail and how to find it

Hi. I posted under a different topic, "finding deleted mail" but have not had any answers yet. Thought this might score some.
When I delete my mail, it does not go into trash, yet when I go to home/library/mail/trash, they are there. If however I actually drag the mail I wish to delete to the trash, it'll remain there.
I have a Trash folder, under that is On My Mac, then under that with a triangle it says my mail.myserver.net (just a pseudonym). If I turn the triangle down, nothing shows under that.
I just recently upgraded to Tiger, from 10.2.8 (not sure if panther or jaguar). Anytime I deleted mail, it would go to my mail.server.net acct. and I could always view it. With Tiger, I have not been able to unless I go to my home folder.
Please help. It gets quite annoying to trash my mail this way, then when checking back for it, it's not there.

Ended up going to another question that had been answered in a very speedy manner and post under that. My question was answered through that post. Thanks anyway.

I want to delete ConstaSurf and SearchProtect but I get a message that they are in use and it won't let me delete them.

I started to download Firefox and without realizing it I agreed to some additional programs that I do not want on my computer. The ones I can identify are ConstaSurf and SearchProtect. When I try to delete them, I get a notification that they are in use or in another file, and it won't let me delete them. I would like to delete them and then try downloading Firefox more carefully. Thanks for any help. I am not computer savvy.

See this: http://malwaretips.com/blogs/constasurf-virus-removal/
For step 1 - Uninstall ConstaSurf program from your computer - thru the Control Panel
If that's where you get that message about them bring in use, try closing Firefox and any other browsers that you may have open and then try to uninstall those two.

My IPhoto Library is unreadable Tried everything recommended even deleted IPhoto and I still get the error message

Hi
I keep getting the error message (photo library is either in use by another application or has become unreadable ) I've tried everything that has been suggested, I've even deleted Iphoto and reinstalled it ,but this doesn't work, I even reinstalled Lion, without success. I've checked for virus s and that is ok. Any ideas as to what the problem is and how can I solve it.
Regards
Richard

Try this solution:
Start over from scratch with new library
Start over with a new library and import the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from your original library as follows:
1. Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
2. Open the library package like this.
Click to view full size
3. Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
4. Drag the Originals (iPhoto 09 and earlier) or the Masters (iPhoto 11) folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
Click to view full size
This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library but will not keep the metadata, albums, books slideshows and other projects. Your original libraruy will not be affected. It will still exist in case you want to try other fixes on it.

Deleting Items And Moving Items Automaticly

This is probably a rookie question, but I am new to ID. What is the best way to setup an ID document where if I delete a text box and photo in one row, that the rest of the rows on the pages after move up automatically and line up like I had the deleted row? Or does this have to be done manually?
Reason I am asking is I have a document which is a directory of employees with a description on the left hand side, photos on the right hand side, and I have to remove employees who have left the company. These documents are pages and I would hate to have to manually move everything after that deleted employee.

If it turns out that nothing is threaded and the images are not anchored, and you don't have some sort of database from which to rebuild, my personal plan of attack would be to make a copy of the file, then cut the first image frame and paste it into the start of the first line of text in the listing.
Select the anchored frame and go to Object > Anchored Object > Options... and change the type to "custom" and make the x-coordinate relative to the page or margin and the y-coordinate realtive to the Line. Drag the image frame back to its correct postion in the right column.You may have to revisit the options dialog to get the y-offset where it needs to be. Make a note of the settings.
With it still selected, open the Object Styles panel and check to see if a style is assigned. Most likely, it will have [No Style] because that's the default for any object drawn with a frame tool. If that's true, create a new Object Style which should include the posioning information for anchored objects, as well as any fitting options you need. If there's already a named style assigned, edit the style to include the anchored object settings. Apply the style to the selected frame.
If the frames you checked above had [No Style] assigned, and you are using a version of ID that has Find/Change for objects, you can search for objects with [No Style] and change to the object style you created. If there was already a style, this step is unnecessary. The good news here is that even though you are adding anchored object positioning information to potentially every image inthe document (even those that have nothing to do with the listings), unless the object is actually anchored those settings will have no effect whatever. The bad news is exactly the same thing -- you won't see any changes to the employee images until you go through the file and manually cut them and paste into position inthe first line of the listing (and when you paste there they should appear back where they belong). Move the empty frames too, just in case a image is added later and to be sure the empty frame is deleted along with the corresponding name when that gets removed.
Hard part is now done. Next step is to go to Rorohiko,com and get their TextStitch script (http://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/indesign-downloads/textstitch/). Run the script, delete all but the first two pages of listings, and then delete all but the first lisiting frame on the first page. Resize the frame to fill the page, then pick up the overset and hold Shift as you click at the top of the next page to autoflow the rest of the listings back into the file.
