Emails are disappearing...even though they are sent they're not in Sent/Trash

I upgraded to Lion on my MacBook Pro a few months ago.
I have now lost 3 emails (that I'm aware of) - in as much as they were sent - the recipients confirm receipt - yet they are not in my Sent or Trash files. I checked the whole system and they are nowhere to be found.
Printing every email before you send it is not a practical solution.
Anyone know how to fix it?

Same issue since did the last update with my mac mail. Will see an email for a second and then it disappears. Same for iPad, iPhone, on iCloud, macbook. Did rebuild on the macbook of the email account and still saw the same issue this am. Did 2 test send from gmail and neither have come thru. They are not in trash or archive and no rules set and did search. This is really bad for me because currently looking for a job and critical to see emails! Any help would be greatly appreciated. macbook pro - OS X Yosemite 10.10.2 Mail Version 8.2 (2070.6) Note it is happening on all devices and mail is not found on web iCloud mail either.

HT4899 I keep getting the same email sent to my I cloud account, even though i delete them they just keep coming back

I keep getting the same email sent to my I cloud account, even though I delete them they just keep coming back. I now have 7 email that I that I can delete several times a day and they just keep coming back. Very frustrating !!

Go and log out of your MobileMe account and then try logging back in again with a dummy username and password. This can help clear it and then just log back in again with your normal username and password.
Note though that iWeb does not require a password or username to use it - this is MobileMe.
Also, start thinking about MobileMe alternatives before you are forced to in June.

Why are my emails acting threaded even though my sort is set to unthreaded?

My View> Sort By> is set to Unthreaded, yet when I mark an email as "Read" it randomly marks other emails as read that I have not actually read yet. No I do not have any addons for filtering conversations. Yes I have read this Q&A https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/989629?esab=a&as=aaq The answer that said that even though the right click drop down menu Mark> As Read option shows the 'R' underlined, indicating to use 'R' to mark a single message as read, 'R' will mark the entire thread as read. My question is, how can it mark 'a thread' as red when a thread doesn't exist since the sort by view is set as unthreaded? I was grateful for the suggestion to use 'M' to toggle between Read & Unread status on a single message, as this DOES work to mark only one message as read! However in every other way my messages are still being treated like they are threaded even though I have set the view> sort by> as Unthreaded. Is there ANY other way to turn threading off besides the View> Sort By options? Or at least change the way Thunderbird assembles conversation threads?

Thank you Matt, I guess I was hoping to find out if I could change the way Thunderbird sorts threads. For example, I have a few emails in my inbox, sorted as follows:
1 3/4/14 Re: Howelite Nurseries, Inc. 6-21537 Annual CCR Rich Lunar
2 3/4/14 Re: Howelite Nurseries, Inc. 6-21537 Annual CCR Rich Lunar
3 2/28/14 Re: Sleepy Water Co.,Inc. 5-21184 Annual CCR Rob Parks

5 3/3/14 Re: QSI J. D. Sample Co. 6-31502 Annual CCR Ryan Creast
6 3/12/14 Re: Sleepy Water Co.,Inc. 5-21184 Annual CCR Rob Parks
7 3/13/14 Re: Acreage Water Co. 5-8892 Annual CCR Mary Sane
8 3/7/14 Mountainscape MHP 5-1164 Annual CCR Steve Jstone
9 3/10/14 QSI Waterfall Lakes 3-552439 Annual CCR Mich Nielsen
10 3/20/14 AB Nostra Water Company 9-4335 Annual CCR Dave Vanil
11 3/25/14 Howelite Nurseries, Inc. 6-21537 Annual CCR Rich Lunar
As you can see they are all separate companies having nothing to do with each other, mind you they have never been part of a group conversation or subscription or anything like that. An individual email was sent out by me to only one individual contact. In my inbox #1&#2 are threaded together, email #3 stands alone, email #4 stands alone, emails #5, #6, #7 are threaded together, and emails #8, #9, #!0, #11 are threaded together.
At first I thought the word "CCR" could be causing Thunderbird to think they belong together, however as can be seen above there are several threads and all but one subject line contains the word "CCR". Also notice that emails #1, #2, #11 all have the exact same subject line and sender, and clearly they are not sorted by date... so basically I'm having trouble understanding Thunderbird's logic for threading these emails the way they are.
I guess my question "What is Thunderbird's logic?" is a two part question; part 1.) Why is Thunderbird grouping these emails the way they are? and part 2.) Can I change way Thunderbird filters a thread? Say by sender perhaps or subject line?

After importing received and set messages from Opera Mail, Thunderbird works fine but does not save sent messages to Sent folder, even though messages are sent

I successfully imported messages from Opera Mail. Initially the Sent mailbox was not showing in Thunderbird. A quick removal and fresh installation solved that, but Thunderbird does not save the sent messages to the Sent box, where the imported Opera Mail messages are stored. Even though messages are not saved, they are sent correctly. The image attached shows the error message.

Probably a name-confuse If you store sent on mailserver it has to have the right name. (subscribe)
You could set up under Account settings / copies and folders (maps) Sent pointing to the right local folder.

TS4532 My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange using the web browser. The connection worked until IOS 6.1.2 was Install

My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
Help please!

I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
In the meantime I have also tried:
Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
But please remember that:
The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
Then started working unexpectedly in December
Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general.

I have a first generation iPad and macbook air and iPad is saying that my username or password are incorrect even though they are working on the Air and my iPhone.

I have a first generation iPad and it is saying it can't get mail as the user name or password are incorrect even though the same details are working perfectly on my Macbook Air and iPhone.

Hi Go to settings On iPad Email Accounts Delete Email Account then Re Add Account Do this for each Account you are having problems with. Cheers Brian

My two months old IPhone5(AT n T) not receiving calls (quite a few times) even though signals are good,Because sometimes people are calling my landline and asking Is your phone switched off ? In fact network also good at that time.Any fix ?

My two months old IPhone5(AT n T) not receiving calls ( quite a few times - Till now it happened around 15-16 times) even though signals are good,Because sometimes people are calling my landline and asking me that Is your phone switched off ? Infact network also good at that time.Not sure about the problem.
I contacted AT n T also and explained about the problem, They suggested to monitor few more days...whether it is real network issue or not. But I am very sure it is NOT network issue because one day I was waiting for my brother at my office open parking space, And i called my brother whether he is ready at his place so that i can go and pick him, but he told it takes sometime...and he told, he will call in 15 mins, So i was at the same location (NOT even moved 1 inch also ), just sitting and listening music and after 30 mins, I called him back and asked Still not ready, then he replied he was trying me from last 15 mins and it is going to voice mail , I got similar complaint from others as well. Today also my cousin called my landline and asked Is your phone switched off ? because i was trying to reach you but it is going to voice message, I saw the signals at that time, Signal strength is very good. I think there is some problem in Iphone5 may be LTE or something.
Taking phone to next levels is good, But it should NOT hamper it's basic phone functionality ( Make calls, receiving calls, Voice mail etc ). Please let me know if any fix for this.

You say it started on yours after upgrading to iOS 8. I've been on iOS 8.0 for quite some time and only recently did this issue spring up.
The one thing I haven't tried is downgrading it back to iOS 7 (which would be a shame, but if it's the only answer...)
I'll get back to you once I've tried that.

When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session.

When closing Firefox, after reopening it, my tabs are gone, even though I have Firefox set to remember session. However, after several hours and opening and closings of Firefox, it will open tabs from the old session, for no apparent reason.

You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.

Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

HT201302 Even though there are over 200 photos on my ipad, after trying both methods of importing and connecting with a lead, a message appears saying that there are no photos on this device. Any ideas?

Even though there are over 200 photos on my ipad, after trying both methods of importing and connecting with a lead, a message appears saying that there are no photos on this device. Any ideas?

Did you connect your iPad to your computer then open the application on your computer that transfers photos from a camera? Your computer should recognize the iPad as a camera. All photos in the Camera Roll on the iPad should then be seen and you should be able to copy them to the computer using that application.
Photos that were synced to your iPad by connecting to your syncing computer cannot be copied back this way as the master file for those photos are on the syncing computer.

HT3412 The preview of my hardcover book as iPhoto laid it out is 62 pgs. even though there are only 82 photos in my album. That seems like a lot of pgs. for so few photos. Is this a full 62 pgs or 31? How much is 62pgs?

The preview of my hardcover book as iPhoto laid it out is 62 pgs. even though there are only 82 photos in my album.
The auto layout used mostly 1 photo, full pages. Obviosuly I can manually re-layout the pages as multi-photo pages and reduce the number of pages.
However, that seems like a lot of pgs. for so few photos since a blank Photo Essay book layout appears to use 73 photos?
I'm not sure I know why iPhoto did not the default layout to fill those photo frames. I expected the 82 photos to use approximately 23-24 pages max.
Is this a full 62 full pgs or 31sheets?
If it is a true 62 pages, what is the cost?
Thanks for the help.

What does the book look like in iPhoto in the All Pages window? Are there photos on all pages? Books are printed on both sides of the page so that would be 31 pages.
This book has 48 pages or 24 sheets.
To find the cost click on the Buy Book button and check the price that is presented to you. You can always cancel out of the purchase process.
Happy Holidays

I am unable to sync my iPad with my new MacBook Air without losing all photos even though both are linked to the same iTunes account

Transferring photos from your computer has nothing to do with your iTunes account/Apple ID.
Photos can be transferred from a single computer only. When transferring photos from another, all photos on the iPad that were transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPad first - even if the photos were transferred from the old or different computer to the new computer being used for syncing.
When transferring photos from your computer, what is named the iPod Photo Cache is created on your computer for the photos that are transferred and why you see new photos being transferres are optimized before the actual transfer process. The iPod Photo Cache for these photos on the computer the photos were transferred from is not available on your new computer.
Since all photos on your iPad that were transferred from the old or different computer should remain on that computer, transfer the photos from that computer to your new computer. These photos on your iPad will be erased with the first sync but will be re-transferred along with a new iPod Photo Cache for these photos being created on your new computer.

I have been having the same issue for the last two weeks. No real indication as to why it ever began other than I had turned off my router and Airport Extreme Base Station off for a weekend while I was away from my place.
iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, all have no issues at all with my Airport Extreme Base Station. Can stay connected throughout my living room, bathroom, bedroom, no issues whatsoever.
My 5 month old MacBook Pro 2.66 GHz Core i7 Airport is sometimes perfect, able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue. Then, for no reason, I won't be able to join my wireless network, or when I can join, I can't pick up an IP address. And then it will connect, pick up and IP, and then it won't browse. No real rhyme or reason to when this will happen, or when it works.
I thought that it was an issue with my MacBook Pro, but then my sister visited with her brand new MacBook Pro 2.26 Intel Core 2 Duo, and while a month ago she was able to connect, DHCP, and browse without issue, this weekend she had all of the same issues I was having.
My XBOX 360 and MacBook Pro have absolutely no issues with the wired connection. Only my WAN seems to have this issue.
Did you ever find anything more to this?

TS1424 I've just downloaded an album and at least two tracks are incomplete, even though there was no error in downloading

I've just downloaded an album and at least two tracks are incomplete, even though there was no error in downloading reported.

Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) have you tried deleting them from your iTunes library and redownloading them via the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes ? Re-downloading.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find those songs and use the 'Report a Problem' link.

Use the volume buttons on the side of the phone. Personally, I find it's better with those off completely.
