Deleting messages on iPhone won't delete on .Mac

I have an issue where if I delete an email on my iPhone and then log in to .Mac mail, I still see the message there. Further inspection shows that the message is in the .Mac trash AND in the inbox - almost like the message was copied rather than moved. Not sure how to get the sync to finally take effect. I think if I check mail via mail.app it will force the sync. Also, if I delete one of the many messages in the .mac inbox, it will suddenly delete all the messages that should have already been deleted.
Anybody else see this? I have a buddy who is also able to reproduce this "bug".

Make sure the settings in your iphone and on your computer match for where deleted messages go. On the iphone, go to settings>mail>yourdotmacaccount, tap advanced, and it should show you that deleted messages are being put in "Deleted Messages". On your mac, if you don't have a mailbox that says "Deleted Messages" you're fine, because that means that you've told it (or it automatically chose it) that the mailbox "Deleted Messages" is your Trash. On the computer it shows just "Trash" for whatever mailbox is chosen for deleted messages.

  • Messages on iPhone won't delete

    So everytime I try to delete a whole conversation on my iPhone 4s with iOS7, it goes away from my messages, but then the entire app will freeze up. At this point when I go to a conversation only the latest message sent or recieved will be shown, even though I knoe more are in the thread. I won't be able to send or recieve messages when this happens. Then when I close out the app and reopen it, it shows I have no messages at all, even if I only deleted one conversation, it just comes up as "New Message" this is really annoying because the only solution to get Messages to work again is turn the entire phone off and on again. Then all the conversations are back, including those that I "deleted" Need a fix ASAP because my messages are taking up a lot of space. Thanks!

    You need to do it through iTunes, by unsyncing them
    Wtih  your iPhone connected, open iTunes on your computer, and click on your iPhone's name.
    This should bring up the Overview Page, then click on the Photos Tab.
    From their uncheck the folders that have the images you want top remove from your phone. Then sync the phone. itunes will remove the pictures during the sync process.

  • How do I get deleted email on iPhone to BE deleted on iMac?

    I WANT deleted email on iPhone to BE deleted on iMac...successful with GMail, no luck with Yahoo or ATT(Yahoo). Thanks

    Depending on the type of email, the answer is different.  I'll answer for regular Yahoo Mail, as I have it set up on mine.  On your computer, go to mail.yahoo.com and sign in.  Then on your iphone, go to Settings --> Mail, Contacts, Calendars --> Click the account. 
    At the top of the next screen click the account name, and then click "Advanced" at the bottom of the next screen.  Under mailbox behaviors, the folder names in blue should match the names of the corresponding folder on Yahoo, EXACTLY.  So if on yahoo, the folder is called Trash and on your phone the "Deleted Mailbox" doesn't say "Trash", it's not going to sync properly.  It will just create a new folder on yahoo's server with whatever name it's set to be.
    ALSO, make sure the mail on your imac is set up as IMAP and not POP.

    You can manually manage or you can sync by playlist/artist/album/genre/checked songs.
    Maybe you should read the manual:

  • Find my iPhone won't see my Mac's

    As above, Find my iPhone won't see my Mac's it will see my Iphone and Ipad but for some reason it will not see the Macs. Yes they are enabled all I get on the F M Ip screen is no location. Do I have to switch on location services somewhere and if so where.
    Thanks for your help

    wjosten and other experts,
    I have to turn "airplane mode on and off" to make the "find my iphone" work each time I start my iphone. But it only lasts 30 minutes or so. (with the iphone being switched on continuously) Then FMiP will stop working until I repeat turning on and off the airplane mode again. This sequence needs to be repeated after each 30 minutes or so.
    Is there any fix available for this problem? A friend said Apple has issued iphone software v 3.3 in Japan but I cannot find it here in Canada.
    Thanks.

  • Mail won't delete messages from Iphone unless I open Mail.

    I have an Exchange account set up and use MS Outlook at work.  I do receive my email via push on my Iphone 4s.  However, when I delete a message from my MS Outlook at work, it won't delete from my Iphone UNLESS I open up Mail.  Anyone else have this issue? 
    I did change the setting of pushing my delete items folder in the mail settings on my Iphone.  Still did nothing. 

    Mel,
    One more thing to check on your computer...iCal>Preferences...>Accounts>Account Information>iCloud>Refresh Calendars:>Push
    If that is not helpful, go through the procedures listed in iCloud: Troubleshooting iCloud Calendar.

  • Email on my iphone wasn't updating so I deleted acct. Iphone won't verify acct. when I tried to add that acct back. Message says check network connection

    Email on my iphone wasn't updating so I deleted the acct. Iphone won't verify acct. when I tried to add that acct back. Message says check network connection and that I entered correct info in the "Incoming Mail Server" field.
    Where would I find that?

    You are sure that you have entered the correct username and password in the incoming mail section?
    As far as using the iPhone with the Mac, I'm not a Mac user, so I cannot say. I do know that with Windows, the only time the iPhone will appear in Explorer is if there are photos in the Camera Roll. Otherwise you have no other access to the file system.

  • Any way to retrieve deleted messages from iPhone 5S?

    Only by restoring your phone from a backup that contains the deleted messages. If no backup to restore from, the data is gone.
