How do I get them back?

I'd rather start with tidying things up on the server. I.e. delete messages you already moved to the new account or to Local Folders in the original account. And then also remove them from Trash.
Google doesn't make it easy to really get rid of messages, and this may be a tidy process, but it will finally bring down the space used on the server.

1. Open iTunes.
2. Click the View option in the iTunes menu.
3. Select the Show Sidebar option.
Connect your phone, select it in the Sidebar...the various tabs will now show as before.

Go into your settings, are the push notifications turned on? Same with messages.

Hiya, I've got a weird problem with my iPhone4. On the 'home page' of my iPhone the mail symbol tells me there's a new mail waiting for me. However, there's no new mail to be found. Does anyone know what the problem is? Thanks

This response is a little late as I just read about your problem. I have a 2012 Dodge Charger and a 2012 Chrysler Town and Country and both worked flawlessly with the iPhone 5s my wife and I had. However, we just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and Uconnect will receive calls but you cannot answer them. You can callout successfully, however. the annoyance being the inability to answer incoming calls in the HandsFree mode.

Why no visual alert that you have new mail??

It would be nice if you could get a visual alert that you have new mail, just as you get for Voicemail and Texts.

I just spoke to a rep at Apple...they had me do a few things...first go into setting and then go to mail and then change fetch data from manually to 15 minutes, that did not work...what we did finally was to delete the mobile me account then take the airplane mode off for 20 seconds then put it back on then hit settings to general to reset to reset all settings...then we added the mobile me account back and it now notifies you when you have mail...I hope that helps....

Mail thinks I have new mail, but I don't.

Hello,
I'm having an odd issue of mail making my new mail sound whenever it checks mail; regardless of whether I actually have new mail. I tried turning off the "Play mail sounds for other actions" which had no effect. It only stopped making the sound when I changed the new mail sound to none.
Why is it doing this?

Graham,
It is the bedevilment of the issues with leftover files, that they are not immediately troublesome, but become so later, and I am seeing many who just now confronting them.
In your Sent Messages.mbox folder that you listed files for, those listed that are not needed, and likely problematic are:
content_index 592KB
Incoming_Mail 64KB
IncomingTable_ofContents 4KB
Info.plist 4KB
tableofcontents 92KB
While the mbox of size 149MB may not be problematic, Mail 2.0 does not use it for anything, and it is a space hog, that can be deleted. Notice the similarity in size to the Messages folder, where actual message content is now stored.
In your POP folder, look also at the INBOX.mbox to look for files other than the Messages folder, and the Info.plist file.
In your xxxxx.imapmbox folders, look for files other than these two, but the likely ones to perhaps find will be any named to include cache or caches.
The files that are most likely to become troublesome, are any that were once used for indexing, such as "content_index". In some, but not all cases, the new universal index file, Envelope Index becomes corrupted, and needs to be refreshed. This may be the case for you, and we may need to remove the Envelope Index file (after all other mailbox folder cleanup, and force Mail to reindex, when it next is launched. This new indexing can take several minutes, and if you do this, wait patiently.
Your mailboxes were ready for this cleanup, and I think the new mail issue could originate from having all these unneeded files.
Ask any questions for comfort or information.

"Include when checking for new mail" option not working

Hi,
I have 2 email accounts set up on mail, but I only want 1 of them to pull down mail (the other will only be used for sending). For the account I don't want to get mail I deselect the box "include when checking for new mail".
However, Mail still pulls down messages from that account. When I put in the correct server settings for the incoming, it pulls all of my mail (in this case gmail), and when I put in bad settings (as a way of avoiding getting the mail) I get an annoying error message.
Does anyone know of a way to make that function of Mail work?

Hi feuerstein.
How have you set up the Gmail account in Mail (POP, IMAP), and under which circumstances does Mail check for new mail on that account? More info, please.
BTW, Mail doesn’t automatically check when launched every account if Include when automatically checking for new mail has been turned OFF. That happens with IMAP accounts only (and only if they’re “online”), not with POP accounts, but it isn’t clear at all whether that’s what you’re talking about...

Mac Mail 6 is missing the "spinning wheel" indicator when checking for new mail

Before updating to Maountain Lion, when cheking for new mail in Mail, there was a little indicator ("spinning wheel") next to the Inbox to confirm it was actually working.
Since updating to Mountain Lion, the indicator isn't there. It's not that much of a big deal if it doesn't exist anymore, but it was good to have, and if it's just a setting I need to turn back on, then that would be cool, if I could find it

for who is "expected behavior"?????, if you have 6 mails account with different domain or private domains this is NOT an expected behavior... why? this missing indicator work to know if your site or email client is up or down or slow, ok maybe a lot of people don't use this but, don't take desicions like microsoft!!!... looks like some ex-employee from microsoft has a very cool job on apple right now
i don't know who did "This solved my questionRe: Mac Mail 6 is missing the "spinning wheel" indicator when checking for new mail"
you need to remove that... Take another bite to the apple an work on that!!!

I know I have new mail why can't I see it in Apple Mail?

Oh.
This seems to be a common problem with Yahoo (search this site)
I only have one piece of advice to offer. Change your email provider to one that is not Yahoo.

Thumping sound when I get new mail

I get a thumping sound when I get new mail. How do I turn it off?
In mail preferences I selected none for new mail sound. And unchecked the Play sounds for other mail actions.

The thumping sound you hear is probably your computer's default "alert" sound that plays when you click something that really can't be clicked or try to make something happen that the computer can't do. It informs you with a little "alert" sound. So, when you get your mail, your computer is automatically doing something that generates an alert. Not sure what that can be. Perhaps checking mail on a second account that is set up incorrectly?
To see if the thump sound is indeed your computers alert sound, go into System Preferences and check on sound and choose your alert sound there.

Bouncing dock icon when I get New Mail??

Is it possible to have the Mail icon in my dock to bounce up and down to alert me that new mail has arrived? I prefer to use dock hiding setting, and so it would be nice to see at quick glance if new mail has arrived when I return to my desk.
This feature is available for Microsoft Entourage for Mac, but how about for Mail?

You could set up a rule as follows:
If {any/all} of the following conditions are met:
{Every Message}
Perform the following actions:
{Bounce Icon in Dock}
Such a rule would have a couple of drawbacks, though.
One is that, once Mail starts bouncing, the only way to stop it is by making Mail the active application. It may seem no big deal... until you realize that it happens even if Mail is already the active application...
Another problem is that, because the junk filter is evaluated after all the other rules, Mail will bounce in the Dock for newly arrived junk mail as well...

Mail Dock icon only shows when Inbox has new mail, not other folders.

Hi
I've got Rules set up for Mail to move new mail to various folders on receipt, depending on the nature of the emails.
However the Mail icon in the Dock only indicates when new messages are in the Inbox, not other new emails which might be in other folders waiting to be read.
Is there some way to fix this so that it notifies me of all new emails?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Richard

Are you running leopard?
Under preferences on my mail (version 3.1.1 i think) then the 'general' tab there is an option "dock unread count" which you can set to inbox/none or all mailboxes.
I don't remember this being an option under Tiger but it may be worth looking for if you're not on Leopard.
Hope this helps

Some times when I have Closed mail I am unable to close my Mac down. If I try to get back into mail it will not let me. Any suggestions? and Do I need Virus Protection at all.

Some times when I have been using mail and close it down, I am unable to close my Mac Down?
Do I require any Virus Protection for my Mac Mini?

If Mail is preventing shutdown, when it happens go to the Apple Menu>Force Quit, select Mail and click on Force Quit - it should then continue to a normal shutdown.
No, you don't need anti-virus software:
