Thanks.  I am setup on a pop act. I guess. I will continue to save in sent if I really need to keep an email that I am not replying to.

  • Can't delete email messages from some folders in Mail

    I CAN delete email messages from header Folder "MAILBOXES" (drafts, sent, trash); however, there's another folder header below called "ON MY MAC", where I save various emails by dragging them to a subfolder, and when I try to delete these, I get this message:
    "The message '(subject of email)' could not be moved to the mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' The destination mailbox 'Deleted Messages --- On My Mac' does not allow messages to be moved to it."
    The only way to delete from this folder is to hold Control, select from the dropdown Move to, then Trash, and then one of three sub-trash folders (the one that has my email address) -- this is a pain to do.
    Mail is just not working properly any more (I just added 2 other posts - one about crashing, another about all my Fonts missing)
    thank you in advance!

    Colin,
    Have you checked Mail>Window>Previous Recipients for the old address? If not, attempt to "Remove From List" at that location and let us know what happens.

  • Why have most all email messages disappeared from the folders they were stored in?

    I have 57 folders set up in TB. All had multiple email messages stored in them. These file folders were used regularly without any problem. One day I accessed one of the folders and it was empty. It turned out that all folders were empty except for eight and those eight had files missing. I was at a complete loss as to what had happened. I then remembered that System Mechanic, which I have installed, had found something like 124,000 misaligned files prior to this problem and had proceeded to fix the problem. I don't recall if I had tried to reference any of my TB stored emails immediately after the misaligned file problem was "fixed" or several days had passed since this misaligned file problem was "fixed". I have had both TB and System Mechanic installed for 3+ years without any problem. Has anyone had this problem with or without System Mechanic installed.
    Thank you for any help offered.

    Yes they can. Connect your iPhone to your computer, open itunes, click on info and click on sync contacts. Alternatively you can go to your phone settings, iCloud and deselect the contacts option. A dialogue box or whatever that thing is should come up, select keep on my iPhone. Wait a few minutes and reselect it again and choose merge when it asks you to. Let me know if that solves your problem. It happened to me on my iPhone 4s and I just fixed it a few minutes ago.

  • IPhone Deletes eMail message when moving to Draft Folder

    Hi, here's a nice bug.
    I repled to a message, but it failed to send it so it wnet into the Outbox automatically. I came back later and decided to move it to the draft folder. "Poof", the message is instead deleted. Nice feature, Apple.
    Anyone know where to submit bugs - is that the same place you submit suggestions 4 improvement?

    I called apple about this bug a few weeks ago. It is an error with any POP email accounts. You cannot move emails between folders, they dissapear. They are working on the problem they told me.

  • Can no longer save email messages to my files

    Before upgrading to Mavericks, I could open an email message from a client, click Save As, select a folder, then save the message as a text file to the appropriate folder on my hard drive. It seems I can no longer do that. I always get a Mail error message saying "Names longer than 31 characters are not supported on the destination volume."(Even when the name is already shorter than that, I go through the exercise of shortening it.) After doing that, I click Save. Then I get an error saying "Error: Could not save to path...." which, incidentally, goes haywire part of the way through and takes it down a path that is a completely wrong folder for another client. Regardless, it doesn't save.
    I've tried completely renaming the file. I've tried everything I can think of.
    This used to be SO SIMPLE:  Just click Save As, select the appropriate folder, then click Save.
    In Mavericks, do I need to convert this email message into a Word document in order to save it to a folder?

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
    This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
    If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • How can I search for a specific folder when filing an email message?

    Dear all, first of all thanks for your support.
    Please don’t hit me but I am currently a BlackBerry user, since this is the standard I got from the company I work for.
    That said, new server technologies allows now to use also other devices with the same company server, something that gives me the chance to switch to an iPhone.
    Basically it’s all ready for the switch, but just one thing holds me from making the step.
    It’s the email messages filing procedure.
    With the iPhone, assuming I am not missing something (something that I hope), when you want to file an email in one of your folders you select the “file” function and then you scroll with your finger across the folders list you have in your email account.
    This is all right if you have an handful of folders, but if you have hundreds, if not thousands, of folders it will take forever to find the one you’re looking for.
    With a BlackBerry, once you selected the email messages you’d like to file, and after you selected the “file” function, you can also scroll, but – very important for me – I can also start typing the initial letters of the folder I’m looking for. The more I type the less folders will appear, as less folders will match with letters I typed. Once the list is short enough to easily see the folder you want (usually after you typed two or three letters, which takes no more than a second), you can pick the folder you wanted in a blink of an eye.
    This makes email messages filing a very fast operation, and since I use this for my job I can’t live without email filing.
    If someone of you knows how to perform the same with an iPhone, and possibly with the original apple mail software, I will very glad to make the switch.
    Thanks to all that will offer their support.
    Regards.

  • Trying to restore Mail messages & folders

    Before doing a clean install of Leopard, I did a complete backup of my system. After restoring my data, I did not realize that I had a problem with Mail. Though many of my email messages are listed, I am missing all of the local sub-folders and their respective messages. I can see other local folders and read the messages, but the sub-folders are all missing. For example, I had a folder called "work" and other work-related folders within them. "Work" is still there, but not the others. Also, I had always kept a backup, local folder of my sent emails. While I can see this list of "sent" messages, I can no longer access any of them: when I attempt to open any local "sent" messages, the content is blank.
    Here's the kicker: I've been using Mail a lot each day and am afraid that a fix might wipe out my newer messages. Can anyone offer any advice as to what files I need to restore from my external hard drive without erasing the newer emails?
    Thank you very much for any help you can give me.

    Hey, it really depends from what you upgraded from. Usually a mailbox rebuild is a simple way to restore everything that "appears" to be missing, but sometimes it can be more tricky.
    Here is a link to a previous discussion on this forum that addresses these issues in much detail: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5754646&#5754646
    I hope this helps.

  • I can't drag and drop emails to folders in mail

    I used to be able to drag and drop emails into folders that I have set up in mail.  Now I cannot do this.  I am running Mac OS X Ver 10.7.4.  Any ideas?

    Do you get any error messages?

  • IPhone email sub folders do not sync with Push feature

    Greetings all,
    I have been working with the iPhone for a while with one of my tasks being to the iPhone Sync Push technology to work well for us.
    Unfortunately it only partially works. It will on push to the root of the INBOX and any other sub folders below the INBOX never get pushed to. The only way to get an idea of if there are new email messages in the sub folders is to individually open each on and wait for it to sync. This is not cool at all.
    Am I missing something here? I mean if I have rules running on the server to organize my email messages and the mail server and clients know about the new messages, why does the iPhone ignore them.
    I have tried the iPhone with Exchange 2003 and with Kerio 6.6 and get no luck with either. I have lots of other phones connected to both and they sync perfectly, so I am lead to believe that the problem is with Apple.
    I thought this phone was supposed to be Enterprise ready?
    Am I doing something wrong here?
    I heard somewhere that Apple only supports push to the INBOX. If that is true, when will Apple fix it so the phone can be used in the Enterprise?
    If anyone has any thoughts on this or if this is working to actually push to sub folders inside of the INBOX with notification of new email without having to open the mail app, I would like to know.
    Thanks for listening.
    Rick

    To all,
    After reading your posts, i can definitly relate to the frustration of using the iphone in an enterprise environment. i have to agree that the Blackberry functionality compared to the iphones is day and night. meaning, the blackberry has always geared itself towards corporate america. where in the iphone's case, it's a device made to look pretty and have some positive enterprise add-ons. however, it still remains a "consumer" mobile device.
    After upgrading the iphone os, i saw that they have addressed the issue with "sub-folder sync". for many of us, that recieve tons of emails a day, its a given that we need to stay organized, otherwise there would be email chaos.
    here is the steps to set auto push to your sub-folders...
    1. Settings
    2. Mail, Contacts, Calendars
    3. Click on your corp mail account.
    4. Click "Mail folders to push"
    at this point you can choose the folders that are currently setup in exchange.
    there is still a minor bug to this fix, even though you will be notify via chime of a new email in your folder, there wont be an indicator on the email icon on the main page indicating a 1 or 2 or 3 emails you might have. Once you are in the email account and see your folder structure, there will be a number indicating new emails.
    final thoughts... they are getting there. im really hoping the new 3gs address all the issues relating to enterprise environment.

  • TS1550 Email messages on Time Machine

    I've just backed everything up to an external hard disk using Time Machine, but when I explore the external disk, I can't find my email messages. Any suggestions as to where they might be?

    Lion & up hide the user's Library folder amonst other things...
    Hold Option and Use the “Go” Menu to Show Library
    Holding down the Option key will show the “Library” directory as an option in the Finders Go menu. The other nice thing about the Go menu is that after you have accessed ~/Library on multiple occasions, it will start to appear in the “Recent Folders” submenu for easy repeat access.

  • TS4002 not seeing folder names some email message content from Firefox log in to iCloud

    Lately when I access my iCloud account I'm not see the Folder names and some emails are showing no content from Firefox on my work PC, though when I view Mail from my iPhone the folders and the email message content is there. It doesn't happen all the time though it is become a more frequent occurrence. What gives?

    This is the result you get when you try to sign into the iCloud Control Panel on Windows with an Apple ID which hasn't been used to set up an iCloud account, since you cannot set up an account on Windows. Once an account is set up elsewhere you should be able to log in perfectly well.
    Forgive me for asking, but are you absolutely sure you are logging in with the right ID? Many people have separate IDs for iCloud and iTunes and it's easy to get them confused: so this is the first thing you should double-check.
    Have you recently purchased additional Storage? Someone who had found that he was unable to log in in Windows until he had gone to the preference pane on his Mac and confirmed that extra storage there - I've not idea why that should be the case.

  • How do I file email into folders?

    Hi,
    How do I create and file emails into folders?
    I've created a "Smart Mailbox" (whatever that is, lol) and tried to drag emails into that folder but it doesn't work. When I click on the email and want to move it, nothing shows up to move it to: including the smart mailbox that was created.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Lee

    it is creating an alias in that smart mailbox
    I have heard this statement before, but it is not true. A message in a Smart Mailbox (or a file in a Smart Folder in the Finder) is not an alias. It is simply the same original in a different context.
    An alias, in Mac OS terminology, is a separate and distinct file from the original. It is a file whose property is that, when opened, it redirects and opens a different file (the "original"). But the alias itself is a distinct file. It can be renamed, moved, deleted, labeled, etc., without having any effect on the original. None of this is true of the "contents" of a Smart Mailbox/Folder. If you delete a message in a Smart Mailbox, you are deleting the original message. If you drag the message to a (non-Smart) Mailbox, you are moving the original. Some people seem to be confused that a message (or file) can appear to be in more than one place at a time. It is, nevertheless, the exact same message, and misunderstanding this point could have unfortunate consequences.

  • Time Machine backups of Mail: no email messages

    I have a problem with Time Machine backups of emails. If I open the Mail app and enter Time Machine, it shows no emails (for one account) and only a couple  of very old email messages for another. There are actually gigabytes of emails in both accounts. I wonder what's wrong, since the files from ~/Library/Mail seem to be backed up by Time Machine. Can I make Time Machine show backups of individual messages? Mail app is setup to access Gmail with IMAP.
    Thanks

    I just noticed this myself and I think I know what might be going on. Mail no longer keeps seperate copies of all the email that is in each folder, including the Inbox. It keeps one copy of the email in the gmail All Mail folder and then uses tags to make that email show up in the differnet folders but it does not make an actual copy in the folders. So Time Machine is backing up the actual email file that is in All Mail but as far as it is concerned there are no emails in any of the other folders.
    This does not explain why there still might be old emails showing up in the folders, I have this happening too. Maybe it's an artifact from the conversion from the old Mail to the new Maverics Mail. I have also not tried to restore an email yet so I don't know if the folder metadata is being backup up or not. I hope it is otherwise all I can do is restore the All Mail folder but I would have to manually put email back into the correct folders.

  • Is there a way to sync my email messages without wifi?

    I don't have wifi at home, and often write long emails on my computer in the Mac Mail that I'd like to send from my IPhone. Is there any way to sync over the USB?

    Gotcha,
    Actually, you didn't.  With iMAP and Exchange accouts, the folders and contents you see on the phone exist on the mail server and are mirrored on the device you're using. 
    The "syncing" occurs between the mail server, your phone and any other devices/computers you access that mail from.  There is no iPhone syncing of mail messages/folders to your computer, USB or otherwise.
