Does icloud delete email on all devices

Does icloud delete email on all devices?

iCloud doesn't. Whether or not this happens depends on the type of email account you are using. If you are using an IMAP email account such as iCloud email, Gmail or Yahoo, or an Exchange email account, when you delete an email (or read one or move it to a folder) on one device you will see these changes on your other devices. If, on the other hand, you are using a POP/POP3 email account, you won't see these changes on your other devices.

How to delete emails on all devices simultaneously

Cannot find the answer to my question and probably won't be able to ask using the correct terminology, but...
I have a mac laptop, iphone, and ipad as well as a mobile me account. I also have three email accounts set up on each of these devices through the mail application (me.com, hotmail, and gmail)
I am trying to figure out how to delete emails simultaneously from all devices when I delete it on one device. For example: I delete an email I read on my ipad from my hotmail account and want it it disappear from the inbox on my iphone and laptop. As it is now I have to delete messages separately from all devices... meaning I have to waste time reviewing messages I have already decided to throw away.
Can anyone offer help on how to accomplish this.
Thanks,
Jason

Actually, Yahoo is Imap (as is google). but the point remains - if you are using a pop account, you need to delete the mail from each device.(pop is basically a one way system). If you have an imap account, changes you make of one device are communicated to all your other devices.

Would be nice for Apple to create means for deleting email across all devices. Time consuming device by device especially for members receiving many emails. What do you think gang?!

How about Apple creating a means to delete email across devices especially when you have like 4 Apple devices (Mac, Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone) Would benefit those of us receiving 13 - 1700 messages across the products. iOS 8 coming in fall. What do you think gang. Very frustrating and time consuming!!

If you have a suggestion for product improvement, provide feedback to Apple - you aren't talking to them here.

Deleting emails on all devices

Hi,
Not sure if I've done something wrong since the OS2 upgrade but if noticed that if I delete emails either from my phone or playbook it has been deleting them in my BT email account. Obviously when being asked I'm choosing the delete on "Handheld" option not "Mailbox & Handheld" .
Any suggestions ?

This has already been discussed at great length in this forum.
The new OS-2 built-in email client only offers the Delete function. Unfortunately, it deletes it from the server as well. I found my deleted emails in my trash bin on my work desktop.
Recommend if you want to keep those emails, go through the process of filing them in a folder.
There WILL be times when you'll hit that delete and then explitives will abound as the mail is gone from the server when all you wanted to do was delete it from your PB.

Delete email on all device

Ipad,Iphone ,Macbook. I'm on Icloud but I still need to delete mails 3 times!! is that normal? could be possible to delete once and then the devices "talk" one to another? thanks stefania

Welcome to the Apple community.
Only your iCloud email account will do this through I cloud. Any other email accounts that you hold must be IMAP accounts in order for this to occur.

Deleting emails from all devices

How do I sync emails to delete from desktop when I del them from the iPhone and vice versa?

Requires an IMAP or Exchange account, not possible with a POP account.

With icloud, if i delete emails on one device, shouldn't they be deleted on my other devices?

I have 2 IPads and an IPhone all hooked up with icloud. If I delete emails from one device, shouldn't they be deleted from all 2 devices?

Yes ... they would be deleted from all devices ... IF ...
You are using an iCloud email account. Simply having iCloud turned on on each of your devices is not enough. You must also be using the iCloud email account to achieve this behavior.

Is there a way to delete emails on one device that will transfer to all my devices so I don't have to delete the same emails off all my devices??

Is there a way to delete emails on one device that will transfer to all my other devices so I don't have to delete the same emails on all my devices?

Go to the mailbox tab in the Mail application and selecting "synchronize iCloud". Whenever you delete mail from one of your devices it will automatically delete from the others--within iCloud.

HT4847 I am unable to delete the last backup from icloud, i checked my all device setting but it still say "cannot delete icloud this time because it is in use,"Please tell me what should i do.

It still didn't work...
Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
APLZOD.resources
BookmarkDAV_client.resources
CoreDAV.resources
iCloud.resources
iCloudServices.resources
ShellStreams.resources
Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
thanks!!

Can no longer access .me email on all devices. What did I do wrong?

I can no longer receive an email on my iphone if the message has been received by outlook on my PC. The message finds outlook and is no longer pushing to my iphone and iCloud online email.
I cannot figure out what I did to disrupt this behavior as this is the way it's always worked.
Using outlook 2007 on PC
Apple iCloud
@me.com email account
iPhone
(before this started happening, I did delete this account in Outlook and reinstalled)
This has caused many other problems that annoy me but this is a deal breaker. I need to have all email across all devices.
I've searched high and low for server / message behavior in all settings of all devices.
Please help.
Thanks,
AJM

You need to save to the camera roll of the iPad, not the Movies app.
So you will need to save the videos to the iPad via the Photos Tab.
If you can see the video in the photos app then iMovie can see them.
If you can see the videos in the movies app then iMovie cannot (Movies is for copyright movies so iMovie does not look there).
There are a few threadson here that have the same question as yours.
You can have a look at them.

How do I keep my iPod from deleting emails on other devices?

My wife and I share the same POP and iCloud account. When I delete email from my iTouch it deletes emails on all of our Macs. How do I keep this from happening?
I have my iPod set to delete on iPod only. Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendar> my POP account or IMAP> Out going Mail Server, Advanced> Mailbox Behaviors, Deleted Mailbox> and I have selected the setting: On My iPod.
I've been trying to find a way to change this behaiveour with out any luck. I have some friends with the same problem.
Thanks!

A POP account does not syncronize the account among messages.
Could it be that your are deleting the messages from the server when you get the mail on your iPo
in Settings> Mail, Contacts, Calendar> my POP account or IMAP> Out going Mail Server, Advanced> Mailbox Behaviors, Deleted Mailbox> set it to nerver remove messages from the server.

How can get emails on all devices?

How can get emails on all devices? When I read an email on my mac, my iphone doesn't download it. How can I change that setting?? I need to have all emails and all my devices!

It sounds like your using a POP3 email account versus IMAP. With a POP3 account if you do not have the settings configured to leave email on the server the problem you describe will occur. With Outlook 2010 (on a PC for example) you can go into the account settings and configure to leave email on the server. That way both devices will see the email. Check help for your Mac email program for instructions...

A better solution is if your email provider uses IMAP. IMAP sync email folders between multiple devices. Meaning any device will receive the email, all sent email can be seen on the devices. If you delete email from one device the email is deleted from all the other devices. Check with your email provider to see if they offer IMAP services.
If they do not your choices are to 1) configure email on the Mac as illustrated in the link above or 2) change email providers to something like Gmail or Outlook.com (as examples).

FWIW I use Cox IMAP email and fully sync email between a Win 8.1 Update 1 laptop, a Win 7 desktop, an iPad 4, an iPhone 4 and an iPhone 5S.

Syncing email on all devices?

Hello!
Ever since I have the new iphone I need to delete emails on different devices, it no longer deletes an email in my yahoo account if I just do it from 1 device, so I have to go to yahoo from each device and delete it! How do I change this?
Thanks
BJ

You must access your Yahoo account as an IMAP account with each device.
Unless all devices are iOS devices, you won't be able to.

Can I sync email between iPad mini, iPad, and MacBook so that if I delete email using one device, it will also be deleted from the other two?

You have to set up the email account using IMAP instead of POP.
What type of email address is it? Yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc?
