Emails dumped randomly into reminders/ notes box

The title of this posting is fairly self-explanatory: at some point relatively recently, a random assortment of emails I have sent myself from my office to my home email address over the last year (and all neatly filed into one particular inbox) have also begun to display in Reminders/ Notes inbox in Apple Mail. The thing is though, they're not notes! They're emails. If I delete them from the Notes inbox, they are also removed from the correct email folder. Does anyone have any clues?

For anyone interested: I solved this problem. It turned out that that the folder in which the duplicated emails were being stored had a name beginning with 'notes' - I changed the name of the folder from 'notes from office' to 'office notes' and the problem immediately disappeared. Simple file path confusion then

  • Using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a "not Responding mode" I have to wait until it times out.

    using AOL emails, Firefox goes into a '''"Not Responding" mode.
    I have to wait until it times out. Happens every time I log on.
    I am using windows 7, HP lap top. I am using MSE for virus detector. This may have started sense I switched to MSE.
    I am not sure.

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Podcasts Dumped Randomly Into My Podcasts Library When Importing.

    My Podcasts are neatly organized into sub-folders under the Podcasts folder on my hard drive. Anyway, I went into iTunes, and found that my Podcasts had disappeared. So, I went to File/Add Folder to Library. When I did this, the Podcasts were dumped into my iTunes Podcast library all over the place in a disorderly fashion. So much for the orderly folders. Can someone please tell me what is going on here ?
    PS It's worth mentioning that before they disappeared from the iTunes library, they were in the same neat and orderly folders as on my hard drive. I have no idea why they decided to disappear.
    PPS. I use iTunes 10.5 on Windows 7.

    iTunes>edit>preferences>advanced>importing tab, the box that states "retrieve CD track names from the internet" must be checked, so iTunes can connect with CDDB to look up the information for the CD you are trying to import.
    As a new poster in the forums, I need to make a suggestion. You have posted in the Mac forum when your issue should really have been posted in the Windows forum. This is probably why no one has responded to you.

  • How can i get my email to go into the in box instead of all mail or archive box

    My incoming e mail does not appear in my inbox but does appear in All Mail or Archive boxes ,.
    how can i put this right

    Hello!
    Please check in the Mail preferences if you have any mail rules activated: "mail > Preferences > Rules"
    If so, uncheck the rules and test if your issue is resolved in the future (perhaps by sending yourself a few mails)

When loging into my email inbox, there is no message there from icloud to verify. so how do I get onto icloud or how else can I deactivate it without using my device?

    Hi ryball89,
    Happy Holidays!  If you are having issues with the verification email for your iCloud/Apple ID, follow the steps below:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email
    Not sure where that email was sent? Here are some tips to help you find it.
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • I am using iCloud email and my emails are randomly disappearing before I can read them. They are not in any folders on my iPhone and I am having to call apple to have the last 7 days of email sent to me in order to retrieve what is being lost.

    I am using an apple email account and my emails are randomly disappearing before I get a chance to read them. They are not anywhere on my device, not trash, junk etc. The only solution from apple has been to resend me the past 7 days of email in order for me to retrieve the missing emails. This has taken me hours on the phone with apple support with no solution. I just don't know what to do. They have gone over the settings with me and nothing has solved the problem. I don't know where to start since it is happening on all my devices.

    Control-click on the background of the view all pages window and select "Preview Calendar" from the contextual menu.
    You can also save the pdf as a file to compare to the printed calendar.  If the two names are visible in the pdf file then the printed copy should show them.  Contact Apple for a refund.  Apple Print Products - Apple Store (U.S.)

  • IPhone 3G displaying emails in random order / not displaying some at all

    My iPhone is displaying emails in random order - mainly oldest first at the moment. Since I can't set viewing preferences I would like to know how to get iPhone mail back to normal behaviour. For some reason it is not displaying emails from 5 December to 30 November as well.
    I have deleted my .mac mail account and re-instated it to no avail.
    I should add that my mac.com webmail is behaving similarly strangely. Instead of displaying emails by most recent first it decided to display them by oldest first.
    Since I have not done anything differently and this behaviour came out of the blue I am pretty puzzled.
    Mail.app on my Powerbook works fine btw.

    First try Resetting it: Hold down the home and sleep button, ignore the red OFF slider, wait for the Apple logo then let go.
    If that does not work, Restore your iPhone in iTunes from your backup.
    If that still does not fix it, Restore your iPhone and a new phone (not from backup) and see how it works. If it is doing fine you have a app you are using that is probably causing your problem. Load them one and a time until the problems recur and you will have found the one that is a problem.

  • Says I'm using 5.5 MB in my storage with email but yet I'm not logged into anything, Says I'm using 5.5 MB in my storage with email but yet I'm not logged into anything

    I'm basically out of storage in my phone, so when I went to manage my storage in my settings it says that my mail is taking up 5.5 MB but yet I'm not logged into any email account therefore I'm not sure how I would remove it

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)

  • With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?

    With 10.7.2 update iCal does not allow you to set "Reminders" by draging events from "All Day Events" into "Reminders" is there another way to do this instead of having to type out the entire reminder with date, time, and type?
    With Lion 10.7.1. you where able to drag events from "All Day Events" into the "Reminders" bar to create upcoming reminders.

    Exactly the same question I was about to post!
    Great being able to sync reminders (well overdue) however if I have to re-type a calener envent into reminders it's a waste of time!! 
    Come on Apple!!
    Just need an option for the calender event to add to reminder or the old drag to add to reminder functionality back, Please???

  • Sometimes clicking on an object in the drop-down box of the search does not put that into the search box.

    when putting an inquiry into the search box, the drop-down gives suggestions. Sometimes when selecting a suggestion, it does not appear in the search box. Reboot of computer fixes the problem. reboot of the browser does not.

    Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

    When i go into calendars a box appears saying "moving calendars to server account" and i can not do anything in calendars - can anyone help?

    I was struggling with this since my latest Itunes update.  Fiirst it would not recognize my IPad as a device, after correcting that, it would list the Ipad in my device but my Sync had no options (summry, info, etc). and it kept saying it was "Accessing Itunes store".  reading your question I suddently tried deleting the itunes task (alt-ctrl, delete, processes) and delete Itunes.  (By the way, I had rebooted my computer several times over the last few days).  I opened up Itunes, and voila. Device is there. No "accessing windows" and my sync has the normal options.
    ****..feels good to actually write an answer rather than writing a questions.
