Exchange Archive folder disappears from Mac Mail (Mavericks)

My Exchange 2013 Archive mailbox folder keeps disappearing from Mac Mail (Mavericks). When it does, the mailbox/folder shows 0 messages and 0 size in the Account info box. To temporarily solve the problem, I disable the account, quit mail, and reenable the account. Then the Archive folder/mailbox reappears. This happens several times per day. By the way, the folder is still visible on Outlook Web Access and through the Outlook client. It is simply invisible to Mac Mail. Does anyone know how to solve that?

Well, somehow, it disappeared after 10.8.2. and the following fixes which had no numbers.
Mail startet and told me, that Mailbox is somehow adapted and now everything works fine.
Strange....

Email disappeared from Mac Mail.

Hello. Email has disappeared from Mac Mail. Running last updated Mavericks. I went back in the time machine settings to revert to the day before the mail disappeared, and each time I go in there, I can see the mail showing up. Except, when I go to revert, nothing transfers back into the account. Any advice on what is going on and how to fix it? Years of mail are now "gone."

Okay, there is definitely an error message coming up in the log. I only selected a few messages from 2008 to restore. I selected just one of the error log messages I received (essentially one for each email it tried to restore). Thanks for all your help. As an aside, if it helps you to respond, I've just started a computer science degree, so I'm starting to feel my way around this stuff, but have a good cursory understanding. Not to say that your directions aren't just succinct and perfectly laid out!

.mac account disappears from Mac mail

Often I will go to my Mail app and the .Mac Account is no longer displayed. If I quit mail and reopen, it and its folders stored there at .Mac will be displayed.

My wife has a sub-account on our MM family pack subscription and had this issue: occasionally mail on her iPhone would appear briefly in the iPhone inbox, then disappear from the list. It never showed up in Mail.app at all. (I have the master account on this family pack and haven't had this issue… knock on wood.)
I was also a recipient on some of those mails -- but if I forwarded them to her she still didn't get them. I had to copy the text out of the messages and paste into a new mail. That worked. So it seems there's something in the mail header (perhaps?) that causes this… yet the mails have not all been from the same person / address. In fact, mail from person "A" might do this disappearing thing today, yet mail from the same person "A" might work fine tomorrow. It's that sort of multi-variable, intermittent problem that's very hard to pin down.
I tried changing her password -- to guarantee that only her known clients were logging in (no lurking POP mail readers that she'd forgotten about). No effect. Then I tried turning off her junk filters, both local and online at MobileMe (thinking maybe some rule was out of control -- deleting random messages, rather than filing them as junk). No effect (other than a lot of complaints from her about junk in her inbox, of course).
Finally, she suggested that maybe it had to do with MM push services -- since it only happens on the iPhone, not on her Mac. We turned off push on her iPhone and voila! It seems to have fixed the issue.
I haven't found anyone else who's connected this with data push on the iPhone. I'd be interested if other folks who try this as a solution would see if it works for them and post results here.

Mail disappearing from Mac Mail - iCloud

There has been a fair few people with the same problem. I have reset my Apple Id password and this seems to have solved the problem.

smart mailboxes are not actual mailboxes. they are saved searches. if something disappears from it it means that the original was deleted from whatever mailbox it was sitting in. For example, it could be that those messages were in trash and you have your trash emptied periodically.

Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.
Rebuild mailbox
If that doesn't work, try re-indexing the mailboxes. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

Mac Mail trash folder disappeared. Deleted mail now appears in 'drafts' and Any ideas?stays in the 'in box'. Any one have any ideas as to why or how to fix?

Hi k:
That file is in your home folder ~(symbol for home)>library>preferences.
A preference file may (rare, but it happens) become corrupted. OS X rebuilds them as needed. You will need to enter any personal preferences that differ from the default settings.

Question about importing from mac mail to folder in address book

Is it possible to place imported email addresses (Mac email) into specific folder(s) in Address Book rather than into just the All Folder.? For example, I have several business addresses that I want to import from Mac Mail automatically into my Business Folder and several others that I want to go into Friends Folder. Can this be done? If so how? Thanks
iMac Intel Duo 20" Mac OS X (10.4.10)
Mac OS X (10.3.7)

The Address Book database is similar to the iTunes database and iPhoto database.
If you use iTunes then you know you can't place a song in a playlist without the song being in the primary iTunes database first and the same with iPhoto. You can't place a photo in an album with the photo being in the main iPhoto library first.
The same with Address Book. You can't place a contact in an Address Book group without the contract being in the primary Address Book "All" Group and I'm not aware of a way to place a contact in the primary All group and in a designated group at the same time.

Junk and Trash mailboxes from Gmail disappeared on Mac Mail--any ideas?

Junk and Trash mailboxes from Gmail disappeared on Mac Mail--any ideas?
Under Mailboxes in Mac Mail, I used to see Inbox (along with sub-Inboxes for each account, all of which are still there), VIPs (still there), Sent (still there), Drafts, Junk and Trash, all of which are missing, without me making ANY changes anywhere, either on Mac Mail or Gmail.
Any ideas ... or other people experiencing same issue? (Happened in my wife's account and I just assumed the kids deleted something, but then I went to my account where the kids never are and I found the same issue.)

Do you mean that they are not listed under Gmail's header at the bottom of the Mailbox List or that they don't exist in the Unified Mailboxes at the top?
If they are not in the unified mailboxes, check down under Gmail and vice versa. If they are at the bottom under Gmail, select each separately and go to the Use Mailbox for command in the Mailbox menu. Set each one to what they are supposed to be, ie Trash, Junk, Sent, Drafts.
If they don't appear anywhere, log into Google's email website, go to Settings, click on the Labels tab and make sure those mailboxes are set to show in IMAP.
Finally, if they are IMAP accounts, just delete the accounts from Mail then re-add them. If you have a lot of email, it will take a while to synchronize, but it should recover those foldrs. If you are using POP, I'm not exactly sure how to save the old email, but I would assume Google is already doing that for you.

Gmail emails disappearing from my Mail inbox

Hi,
I use the Mail program to manage my emails on my MacBook Pro (as well as my iPad and iPhone). I recently set up a gmail account and have been having a strange problem. Sometimes after I read a gmail, it disappears from my Mail Inbox folder. I haven't been able to figure out a pattern as it doesn't seem to do it every time. When our IT manager configured my computer for gmail, I ended up with a Gmail folder and two subfolders called "All Mail and one called "Important" on my Mail desktop. I told him I didn't want or need those folders but he couldn't get rid of them. When the gmails disappear from my Mail Inbox, I can always find them in one or both of these Gmail folders. But the problem is I get so many emails I don't always notice that one has disappeared until it is too late! This is causing some significant problems. No one has been able to figure out how to stop these emails from moving on their own. Our IT manager is more familiar with PCs than Macs. I hope you can help!! It's very frustrating!

No. The email never makes it to me. It is on my iPhone for an instant, but then it disappears. It never makes it to my Outlook on my computer, and it is not in the Junk Mail, Deleted Items, or in my Sonic Wall Spam Filter box. There are 4 other people in my office, and I know that at least 2 of them are having the same problem. I can't tell if this is a problem with my iPhone or my Exchange Server. Help!

Windows 7 disappear from bootcamp after maverick installation

Windows 7 disappear from bootcamp after maverick installation. What should I do to recover?
I did try co reinstall windows but it make the installation new (nothing remain from the previous). Old windows partition seems lost.

Hi Jack.........ok ive managed to create a link to that video on how to install bootcamp.....this is the tutorial i used and i managed to gain 100% completion on bootcamp 1st time no messing......like i said in my previous reply did you save the windows support files from apple....(Critical).....ok no point in messing about i suggest you start again from scratch........these are the things i used and YOU will need to complete bootcamp
mem stick or cd-r / dvd-r......original copy disc of win 7 ...i never used an iso i used original disc....allow a minimum of 30gb of space for your win 7 partition.....if you want bootcamp so you can use big programs like windows based games i.e.....Crysis/Call of duty etc etc ..then you will need to consider that you will need to allow a bigger partition to allow your HD to store the files.....this is the reason i installed bootcamp and so i made my partition i have a 750GB HD so i made a partition of 300gb for windows 7 and left the other 450gb for Mac....so you need to partition enough for what you want bootcamp for remember once you get bootcamp working you will need to install ALL Important Windows updates Including Win 7 SP1......once everything is installed you will have bootcamp up and running lovely.....u can then boot up with either win7 or mac......click this link and watch carefully and do exactly as shown ok and you should be fine...if you have any probs contact me again ok.....let me know how you get on ok..:)...http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&v=QFIWtXTl4d0&NR=1

Exchange Server not working with Mac mail

Any tips on how exchange can work work with mac mail? I get connection errors.

Hello Phil.
Copied from Mail Help.
An Exchange account allows you to connect to your Exchange server via IMAP, and if you enter text in the Outlook Web Access Server field, Mail filters non-email related content from the server. (You can get the text you need to enter from your mail account provider.) For Exchange to work with Mail, Exchange administrators need to configure the Exchange server for IMAP access. Some system administrators may refer to an Outlook Web Access Server as an Internet Information Services (IIS) server.
Is the Exchange Server configured for IMAP access?

Iphone receiving read messages from mac mail

My iphone used to only receive unread emails as long as entourage on my mac wasnt open. Now i have moved to mac mail and my phone is receiving read messages from mac mail. Is there a setting im missing that will make my phone only receive new messages?
I still want my mac mail to receive these same emails later as it used to work.

You would still receive read e-mails in the inbox on your iPhone (and vice-versa) if you used IMAP but they would show as having been read and not as new. IMAP keeps all mail clients synchronised. The only alternative would be to use POP to download to your phone and IMAP to download to your laptop and create another folder on your computer and move mail over to it when read. By default, POP only downloads from the inbox so your phone would not download it again. IMAP would leave a copy in the folder you have created on the server in case you have problems with your laptop. If you delete read e-mails on your laptop, you can set it to remove them from the server after a fixed time and they would remain there until then but your phone would not download them again.

Exporting emails from Mac Mail to Entourage

Is there a way to take ALL of the emails etc from Mac Mail & transfer them to Entourage is one easy step? - I have looked at importing them from Mac Mail with Entourage's 'import assistant'..but it doesn't give Mac Mail as an option to import from...any help gratefully received - thanks

Alex,
This thread is getting unbelievably messy for what originally was such a simple question. Nowhere did I say that the procedure I suggested was meant for a particular type of account or mailbox. It allows any messages to be exported in standard mbox format. It’s Stanley who mentioned IMAP as an alternative procedure to transfer mail between mail clients, and what I said in the post you’re replying to is precisely that IMAP has nothing to do with what I was talking about...
What does “suitable for archiving” mean? If you have any questions that have nothing to do with the problem of transferring mail from Mail to Entourage, which is what we’re supposed to be talking about here, please either find a thread that discusses the same questions or start a new topic to properly discuss them in their own thread instead of hijacking someone else’s thread. Here is a recent example of such a thread:

Cannot send mail from mac mail or Entourage

Hi guys,
Wondered if anyone out there can shed some light on this little problem.
I use Entourage for my emails & all was working fine until yesterday. I can receive mail from all and sundry but I can't send anything. I subscribe to ntlworld internet service and if log onto my email through their webmail, then it's fine. I've tried sending mail from mac mail and I get the same problem. I've been onto microsoft support & gone through all the troubleshooting with Entourage. The Entourage techy suggested it was my internet provider blocking my emails as they think I'm a spammer?? I phoned ntl & they insist it's nothing to do with them as I can send/receive from the website. (If I send an email with the address @ntlworld it's fine, but any other address i.e. all my clients/mates etc just stays in my outbox.
Nothing on any of my settings has changed so I'm at a loss what to do next.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Mel

it may be that your server (internet provider) has just started blocking outgoing mails not authenticated by them.
Go to your account set up...
and fill in the following details.
SMTP SERVER: smtp.mac.com
then click on advanced sending otions...
click on override default SMTP port... type 587
click on SMTP servber requires authentication...
use same setting as receiving mail server.
try this...

I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. Help!

I can no longer send emails from my mac yahoo business account, but can send them directly from yahoo. just not from mac mail. I've been able to send emails perfectly fine until today. I've been on the phone with yahoo mail and they've verified that my account settings are correct and I can send email from yahoo. I can receive emails via Mac mail, but just can't send them. An error message appears that says:
"Sending the message content to the server failed." I can't send emails from my Mac desktop, iphone or ipad. Any suggestions! Help! I'm a Mac rookie and so frustrated! Thanks.

Please read and begin using Can receive email, but not send email. I had a similar issue with Comcast mail (could receive by not send) and found my answer in this letter. For me it took resetting the outgoing mail and telling the system to use a password when sending outgoing mail. If you need help with that please advise and I'll tell you where to look.
