Email glitch

I've been running 4 email accounts on my phone since I got it a few months ago with no problems.
All my accounts except gmail show up in the universal inbox, gmail has a separate menu icon. In my testing, gmail seems to work fine; it sends and fetches email as it should, I just don't use the account for anything because I have three other accounts that suffice.
It's just stopped fetching email for the universal inbox. To get email from my comcast, yahoo, and work (hosted by godaddy) accounts that show up in the universal inbox, I have to open the inbox and refresh to get emails. Also none of these accounts will send email to anyone.
I haven't changed any settings, and I've pulled the battery several times over the past few days with no effect. Does anyone know what could get me back to normal; or is google trying to force me into using their email service?

ChrisM,

App, texting and email glitches

My smartphones have always weirded out on me and I don't know why. The latest - My IPhone 5 was about 8 months old and started glitching. While texting and emailing, the cursor will jump around, highlight, and erase. My apps will open and close, the touch goes crazy and rolls up and down and basically acts like there is a ghost playing with my IPhone trying to severely irritate me. Of course there has only been a few people that see this and never Verizon employees that think I'm losing it and trying to get one over on them. 2 weeks ago Verizon sent me another phone (refurbished) and its doing it again and it seems even worse. Could it be the Sim card? Has anyone experienced this?????

Sunflower0101,
We fully understand how this can be alarming. It sounds like there is something in an application that is causing this issue. We encourage you to reset your device and set up as a new device. Here are the steps to do so http://vz.to/15gw211.

Strange email glitch!

Forgive me if this has been posted. I couldn't find anything using the search. I have an odd thing happening. I have, for one friend, a work and home email. If I go into his email and start typing his name, it will give me the option only to email his work. Let's call him John Doe. So when I type (in the to field) Jo... I get:
John Doe
work [email protected]
John Doe
work [email protected]
Why does it show up twice and the home email not show up at all? If I want to email him at home, I have to hit "+" and find him in the address book.
Any help is appreciated.

Unless you start seeing symptoms, such as unexpected ads in browsers, or other odd behavior, I wouldn't be concerned. As I say, there's no currently known malware which can get installed through opening an image file, certainly not if you didn't see or authorize an installer process.

Email Glitch After Snow Leopard Upgrade

Since upgrading and doing the update that is designed to fix some glitches I still have 2 problems.
1) My signature attaches to all replies and must be removed on each. In the old system you could set the signature to automatically attach only to new messages and never to replies. Is this no longer possible?
2) When I hit reply, the text box contains the original message, which I prefer, but it is all the way at the top of the text box and starts with a line conataining the date, time and sender of the original incoming note. can I change how this looks and give myself a couple more lines at the top above the original message to which i am responding?

First of all you can click on Mail in the menubar and choose About Mail -- this will identify the version your are running.
In Mail Preferences/Signature, below the menu for choosing if the use and which Signature to use, there is a box that can be checked to place the Signature above quoted text.
Another thing to note -- again no change in Snow Leopard -- is if when in the Compose window you click on the Icon to the left of the From address, and choose Customize, you can then check to always have an option right in the Compose Window to change Signature or to choose None.

Email glitch with Yahoo! Mail -- mass mailings!

This morning, while riding in the Metro (subway), I used my iPhone to respond to a couple of emails through my Yahoo! account. However, AT&T has no service in the subway in D.C. So, I thought that by hitting SEND, the emails would be queued and would go out once I surfaced.
Boy, did they ever! When service was restored, my iPhone sent each message over 25 times - without my knowing. Also, the mail program crashed (i.e., went black and then booted me back to the main screen) -- much as has happened on multiple occasions with Safari.
Anyone else having this problem? Does this mean I shouldn't hit SEND without service? Needless to say, the people to whom I sent the gazillion emails were not pleased!

It is not possible.

TS3276 Email Glitch

When I try to send an email to myself my email address fills into automatically (as always) but then it freezes. I can't retype my address either. I have to restart Email. This just started happening in the last few days.
HELP!

You'll have to be a bit more specific than that. If Mail is retrieving email but you get nothing, it could be that there's nothing there to get. Then again, if you login to the web interface for that email account and see new mail waiting, that indicates a problem somewhere.
Is this a POP account or IMAP? When did you create this email account and how long have you had this problem?

Email glitch, help!

Hi, I have another Skype account that I use that I have forgotten the past for. When trying to get a new password from the email token that is supposed to be sent, I put in my email, and it says an email has been sent. When I went to go check my inbox there was no email there from Skype, and then from there I tried checking every 20-30 mins to see if it's been there and still nothing! So I went to go register for this forums with another email I use for a different Skype, I tried contacting the support service and once submititng my message they said I should get an email confirming that they have gotten my message and that they will take care of it as soon as they can, so still nothing!

Email program not automatically checking for new email

I just figured out why I'm not getting new mail notification in the Droid email program with my Yahoo email. It seems that the email program does not automatically check for new email. I have to manually open the app and then new emails are downloaded. I have the email settings set up as "data push" checked and "fetch schedule" is at 15 minutes. Is there something else I should be doing?

this may help you...
The way you have it set up should work fine. The stock android email app (for other than gmail) does not push as soon as you get an email, it has to actually "check" your email for you and you set how often it does that. There is afairly new yahoo app in the market (go to market and search for yahoo) that supposedly pushes to your phone when you get an email. I haven't used it, but if you need your email right when you get it, it might be worth a shot.
this was found on the page before yours. anyway i had the droid in january and it had the email deletion bug. so after i lost emails, i traded to the storm 2. it sounds like the droid x is better in that area so i'm waiting for mine to be delivreed.
But as a tip if you lose youe emails randomly.
when i did i called vzw and they didnt know what was going on, but when they sent me an email i scrolled to the bottom of the list then when i scrolled up it would be gone. or gone the next day etc. so, i logged into gmail and we tried again. THEN IN REAL TIME WHILE LOOKING AT GMAIL INBOX ON LAPTOP and the droid, vzw sent another email, i scrolled to the bottom of the laptop gmail inbox and scrolled back up and it too was gone..not in trash/junk either then a second later it disappeared from the droid.
HOWEVER, I HAD OUTLOOK 2003 STUDENT TEACHER EDITION ON WIN XP SP/2 at the time and outlook WAS ABLE TO RETREIVE ALL THOSE EMAILS THAT DISAPPEARED FROM GMAIL AND THE DROID after i would manually send and receive email in outlook. that tells me that the droid email glitch is not deleting all those emails...just "cloaking" them but they are stil there on gmail but only way i could get them was via outlook once a week as i am atruck driver and i cannot get online often. thats why i went to the storm 2..till the Droid X.
As a side note, if i got an email on the storm 1 and 2 i would get it no later than 2 through 5 seconds after sender pressed send. My droid i had in january, took about 8-10 seconds average and 20-27 seconds when it was not cranky and deleting...errr cloaking my emails. also you may wany to see if your incoming yahoo mail settings are for imap vs. POP3... i hear Imap is better setting and see if yahoo has that as well
i hope Droid X is better. from what i hear,not as many email deletion bug issues here...just sync setttings and delayed email notifications.

Possible malware with accidental email jpg opened?

Due to some really strange email glitch (a really long story, don't ask how it happened because I have no idea), I got logged into someone's email that wasn't mine but a few of my emails were in the inbox, so I wanted to go through the emails and verify that no personal information was in the inbox before I logged out, and I saw an old email that said "your payment" so I clicked on the email. Inside there was an attachment that I accidentally clicked on (I swear I know not to open random attachments but I was trying to see what this was and literally just got my Mac on Saturday night and am getting used to how everything works). It downloaded and I opened a file called google.jpg, which was very obviously a scam, so I promptly deleted it and emptied it from my trash. Is there any way I could have gotten any kind of malware this way? I'm new to Mac and desperately hoping I didn't get some kind of malware on my 2 day old computer. Help very much appreciated!

Unless you start seeing symptoms, such as unexpected ads in browsers, or other odd behavior, I wouldn't be concerned. As I say, there's no currently known malware which can get installed through opening an image file, certainly not if you didn't see or authorize an installer process.

Please help - discussion forum problem.

I am subscribed to Apple Discussions forum "Mail & Address Book - Tiger" to receive a weekly digest. Today, however, I have received about 20 emails - each time there is a post to the forum. I checked "My Settings" and it indicates weekly digest. I did re-save that.
My pop mail server rejects new emails after a certain number and I don't want it to reject important emails because it's filled up by these individual posts.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Since March 2007, when I first signed up, I've been getting weekly digests. Here is the email I received on 6/24 which states:
"You have requested mail to be sent to you when messages are posted to certain areas in Apple Discussions.
The following updates have been made since 6/17/07 1:06 AM
Forum "Mail & Address Book - Tiger" has been updated 2000 times .............."
It then proceeds to list all 2000 of them (in that one weekly digest email) -- with links.
Today was the first day I received individual posts.
After receiving 35 individual emails today, I changed "My Settings" and unsubscribed, and since then I haven't gotten any.
It might be some email glitch as Ernie and MacJack sugested "that all the problems encountered in the forum operation this week" and "others who do (subscribe to weekly digests) reported this also."
I solved MY problem in that I'm no longer being inundated by emails. I don't know if Apple solved theirs.
Thanks for your help.

I have a smartmail box and a 1 in a bubble next to it. I see no new emails to read so how do I find the ONE it says is there? if it is a glitch, how do I get rid of that bubble?

I have a smartmail box and a 1 in a bubble next to it. I see no new emails to read so how do I find the ONE it says is there? if it is a glitch, how do I get rid of that bubble?

Try rebuilding the mailbox.
First select the offending mailbox. Then click on Mailbox in the menu bar, and select Rebuild. If the bubble goes away, it was a glitch. If it does not go away there is one unread message in that Mailbox.
To find that one:
In Mail, go to View / Sort by / Unread. That should bring the unread email to the top of the list.

Weird glitch. Everytime I open Photos app, it instantly creates a new email

Empty address bar and what isn't even the newest picture in the roll. I even deleted all instances of the picture it is using and it still does it. As soon as I open up Photos, I just tries to email that same picture everytime. It's annoying having to click cancel, then delete draft every-time. I checked my drafts folder too, empty. What's going on?

SEEMS TO BE FIRST CASE OF THIS GLITCH, SOLUTION AT BOTTOM!
I feel bad because I can never remember the names of the people I talk to at customer support but thank you to the very nice lady who helped me. (Rita?, Lisa? Linda? Sorry!)
Anyways, she said it was the first case of this she had seen as well (chalk it up to early adoption) so she had to ask higher ups, not something I think anyone enjoys doing, and refused to have me take "just restore" as an answer.
The suggestion of deleting the email account that was being used by the glitch to try sending the email, then re-adding, worked!
Details: Gmail account that was added under microsoft exchange for push support.
Had already deleted all instances of that picture on phone, then all instances on gmail and mobileme accounts by her suggestion, yet it was still popping up instantly when Photos launched. Still not sure where that was cached.
Anyways, looks like this is the first case of this. I tried calling back to thank her, but apparently we had gone past closing time while on the phone (hope you got some overtime!)
So if you ever read this, thanks from Javier @ 707,
SOLUTION:
Delete email account being used by the "glitch" when it tries to send the picture email, check to make sure it's fixed. Took a few tries for me but finally cleared up without reboot or anything. Then just re-add the email account.
In this case it was a Gmail account but set up under Microsoft Exchange to use Push. I also had a mobileme account attached but not for email. So other accounts shouldn't matter if not being used for email. If you have multiple email accounts being used for email, just find out which email is being used to actually send it by letting it send the picture. Then delete accordingly. Re-add.

TS3195 My mac mini (Snow Leopard, v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone 4, iphone 4s or ipad2 in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview but it does in iTunes. I am at a loss for importing photos, short of emailing them. Glitch with OS X 10.6.8 ?

My Mac Mini (v10.6.8) does not acknowledge my iphone as a device in iPhoto, Image Capture, iSync or Preview although, iTunes does. I am at a loss for importing photos other than emailing them to myself. Same problem with my iphone 4, iphone 4s, ipad2 and New iPad. Is this a problem with OS X 10.6.8 as I read some posts claim? Please help.

I was able to import photos in iPhoto and Image capture when I was running SL 10.6.8 on my older MacBook.
Did you try quitting everything, restart the Mac and then try again?
Are there any updates at all for the Mac? I was helping one user not all that long ago and there were updates for her Mac software that had nothing to do with the OS and when she downloaded the updates - the iPad was then recognized in iTunes.

IPhone glitch? IMAP email doesn't appear in inbox...

I'm trying to setup up an iPhone to receive email on mobile me, however I need it to send from another email address (a work email). I set the outgoing server to my work's server - no problem. However, when viewing the inbox for this account on the iPhone, the count on the number of emails increases when the email is received, but the email does not appear. The only way to make the email appear in the inbox is to click back out to the folder list for that account and then click inbox. Then the email is there.

I think this is my problem too - although Mobile Me works perfectly. My own email account doesn't go into the INBOX but goes into separate folders according to email address:
i.e.
on the iphone it looks like:
Inbox
Drafts
Sent
Trash
Apple Mail to do
clh@blah...
contact@blah...
Sent
etc..
which means that the iphone doesn't collect mail - I presume because it doesn't go intothe inbox - so I have to do it manually.
Any ideas? My web support people suggested changing the imap prefi from inbox to my actualy email address - but don't know where to do that! (Same problem when checking mail by imap on Mail on my Mac)
Thanks

I can't access my Google email account on Firefox, but can on Google Chrome: What has happened to Firefox in the last 48 hours to cause this glitch?

Yesterday morning, when I opened Firefox, my home page did not load, and a message indicated I had signed out appeared. When I tried to sign in, I got a message that either my email address or password was incorrect.
