General Email questions

I've been using my phone for email for over a year... but I still am confused on some things.
I expect to add to this list, too
1) What does it mean to 'reconcile' the email? Does that mean that messages read on BB will register as read in all other sources (web, Outlook, etc)?
2) I can save messages. Then, when I want to delete, it asks if I want to delete the saved messages. Does this mean that I have to allow the messages that are saved to appear in my inbox in order to maintain them?
3) The saved messages: Is there a way to save them to my computer? Some sort of transfer?
4) How does saving differ from filing? I can file the messages, but it doesn't ask about them when I want to delete messages.
5) I can hide saved messages. Would that take care of my saved messages issue?
6) I can make PIN Messages level 1. What is a PIN message? Are these messages the same as long as they are between BBs?
7) I often get a bunch of messages at once (for example: when I get a replacement device and reconfigure my emails). I spend a lot of time looking for messages that weren't opened yet. I don't always see the 'Open next unopened message'. I'm not sure the circumstances when it does appear. What can I do to get the prompt for the next unread message?
8) What exactly does it mean when it says 'On conflicts Mailbox wins'?

1. "Reconcile" means little on a POP email account, more on an IMAP email server account, and lots on a corporate BES account. BIS accounts do not reconcile to Outlook.
Reconcile means to "make equal, or even the messages on the device and email server", basically in the simple terms in which I can put it. To "sync" means to move messages from the handheld to the server and vice versa. 
According to the type email server you have (IMAP, POP), your messages "might" reconcile their "read" status and deletions made on one source might delete to the other. So for instance, if you have Gmail and you delete a message on your BlackBerry, it should reconcile that delete to your Gmail web portal. And, if you send a message from your Gmail web portal, now that sent message will reconcile to your handheld as a sent message. Most all IMAP type accounts will do this, most all POP type accounts will not.
But regardless, Outlook really doesn't enter in to the equation until you're on an Exchange server and BES.
Does that help, with me not knowing your email server type?
2. When you save a message, it sort of moves that message to a "saved" folder on the device. You can delete the message from the main messages and still have the saved message.
3. Desktop Manager > Backup will create a backup of your entire device, including messages. Done at least weekly, you will always have them if you need, by using Desktop Manager > Restore.
But, there is really not a good way to view your "saved" messages to your PC. There are third party applications which can extract and read the IPD file created from the backup, should you need, like ABC Amber IPC Extractor software, for the PC.
4. Saving a message saves the message ON your device, only. It will remain saved, forever. Filing just puts that message into a different folder.
5. What IS your saved message issue?
6. PIN messages are messages made between two BlackBerrys using the PIN of your device as the address of the recipient, or you as the sender. Every BlackBerry has a unique PIN number (yours is located at Options > Status). PIN message flows ONLY over the RIM networks, and is super secure and never enters other servers across the world.
7. While in your messages listing, press the U key to go to the next Unread message.
8. IF the BIS servers were to find a conflict in your commands (deleting a message, etc.) you can set which you prefer to be the "master" decider on conflicts. "Mailbox wins" means your server is the "master" if there is ever a conflict on RIM servers deciding what to do. Sorta like a husband knowing that if there is a ever a conflict between Mom and Child, Mom always wins. Right?
Hope that helps some.

    I have an iphone 4 connected to my imac/itunes account using its own designated email address. However, I also have an 80gb ipod classic which is connected to my general email address. How can I delete this and transfer the ipod to the same account as the iphone 4. Thankyou

    iPods, iPhones, and iPads aren't tied to one particular iTunes accout/Apple ID.  So there are no special instructions to follow to allow you to sync it with your newer account.  Simply sync it as you would your iPhone 4.

    Aliases are merely another address within the same account, you won't see additional groups of settings for them. You should however see them as an option in the pull down "From" menu when you create an email.

    My work computer (this mac) i use with my private icloud account so I have access to my private calendars etc. My husband's airbook is also connected to that icloud (since I only have 1 icloud account) and so is our shared ipad. Is that where the problem is? Do I need to change everything on those devises into my name too? Thanks again for you time and help!
    So you are sharing the account. Very bad idea.
    Get your husband his own account and stop sharing yours, they are free.

  • Workflow and General Use Questions

    Hello,
    I'll apologize right off the bat for these novice question because I'm sure the information is probably somewhere in the forum, I just haven't been able to find it. I just purchased Aperture after completing the demo as my library is getting too large to manage using standard file folders. I'm now trying to figure out the best practices for workflow and general use before I invest some serious time into importing and keywording all my pictures.
    1) Store files in the there current location, or in the Aperture Library? It seems to me that once they are moved to the Aperture library, you can only access them from within Aperture. I'm thinking I would be better off leaving them in their current location. For one, if I want to quickly grab a picture as an attachment to an email or something it seems easier to grab it from the standard folders. Second (and more important) I do not have room to keep all my pictures on my Macbook, thus most of them are stored on the Time Capsule.
    So... Keeping photos in their current location appears to be the best choice for me even though it adds an additional step every time I bring in new photos from my camera. Does this sound right?
    2) Is there a way to mark the photos that I have uploaded to my website (Smugmug)? Ideally, I would like to badge photos that have already been uploaded so I can quickly recognize them and ensure I'm not duplicating. I've considered using the rating, or keywords to indicate that a photo has been uploaded but both methods have disadvantages.
    3) Any suggestions for general workflow and organization resources (tutorials, books, websites, etc.)? I've looked at the videos on Apple's site but they obviously didn't get that detailed.
    Thanks for the help, sorry for the length.

    I recommend to Manage by Reference with Master image files stored on external hard drives (note that Aperture defaults to a Managed-Library configuration rather than a Referenced-Masters Library). Especially important for iMacs and laptops with a single internal drive. The workflow as described below in an earlier post of mine uses a Referenced-Masters Library.
    I feel pretty strongly that card-to-Aperture or camera-to-Aperture handling of original images puts originals at unnecessary risk. I suggest this workflow, first using the Finder (not Aperture) to copy images from CF card to computer hard drive:
    • Remove the memory card from the camera and insert it into a memory card reader. Faster readers and faster cards are preferable.
    • Finder-copy images from memory card to a labeled folder on the intended permanent Masters location hard drive.
    • Eject memory card.
    • Burn backup hard drive or DVD copies of the original images (optional strongly recommended recommended backup step).
    • Eject backup hard drive(s) or DVDs.
    • From within Aperture, import images from the hard drive folder into Aperture selecting "Store files in their current location." This is called "referenced images." During import is the best time to also add keywords, but that is another discussion.
    • Review pix for completeness (e.g. a 500-pic shoot has 500 valid images showing in Aperture).
    • Reformat memory card in camera, and archive originals off site on hard drives and/or on DVDs.
    Note that the "eject" steps above are important in order to avoid mistakenly working on removable media/backups.
    Also note with a Referenced-Masters Library that use of the "Vault" backup routine backs up the Library only, not the Masters. Masters should be separately backed up, IMO a good thing from a workflow and data security standpoint.
    Max out RAM in your MB and keep the internal drive less than 70% full.
    Good luck!

  • Multiple Account email question

    I have a question regarding email. I have a primary account (eg. [email protected]) and set up an alias for my child to use (eg. [email protected]). Little johnny has is own 'account' on my iMac. When we log in to his account and launch Mac Mail it asks for password- I enter my primary password for the [email protected] account but that doesnt work. I thought the alias was a good way for parental control and intro to Mail to a youngster. Is this not the correct (or best) way? Do I need to purchase an entire new .mac account??
    Tks for tips,

  • A few general agent questions

    We've been asked some general questions by our agents that I have been unable to find answers for, (although 4 and 5 are likely working as designed). We are running IPCC Express 7.0(1)SR05_Build504 and these are all phone agents. We do not run the agent desktop client. Any assistance in answering these questions would be greatly appreciated.
    1. TransfertoVM softkey "grayed out" while on a CSQ call. Can it be enabled?
    2. While logged in to CSQ, is there a way to start dialing prior to
    lifting the receiver?
    3. Is it possible to handle more than one CSQ call at a time, e.g. put a call on hold and answer
    another CSQ call.
    4. Upon selecting Agent Login (single-button login), can the agent automatically be put into Ready?
    5. Upon Logout, can the phone be returned to the main screen, rather than getting the manual agent login screen?
    Again, any assistance in answering these questions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Roger

    Hi
    1) Isn't that an IPMA softkey? Never tried it, but whilst it's not in the 'unsupported' list, I wouldn't expect using any IPMA features in conjunction with CAD would get you good results. If it doesn't cause you stuck/ghost calls, I would expect erroneous reports...
    2) Being logged into a CSQ doesn't affect the way the phone works.
    - You can dial the number then either lift the handset or hit dial (for speakerphone)
    - You can press speakerphone or headset then dial
    I guess what you are referring to is if you are using the IP Phone Agent in conjunction with a headset? If you are, then the IPPA usually obscures the 'new call' and 'end call' softkeys that you might use if you leave the headset button lit. I guess this isn't the case, as you refer to lifting the receiver? Unless you have motorized lifters.. If that's what you have, you can try getting users to either :
    - Manage their onhook/offhook state using the headset key as if it was the speakerphone key (i.e. press it to hang up or pickup)
    - Use a headset/phone combination that supports HHC
    - Switch to CAD, or CAD-BE if you can't install PC software for some reason.
    3) No. The system is designed specifically so that this should never happen.
    4) No.
    5) Again, no... you can't customize the BIPPA service... If you use CAD or CAD-BE this wouldn't be an issue.

  • Submit by email questions

    Hi there,
    A few questions about the submit by email function.
    1. We have [email protected] addresses. When we hit submit, it only brings up [email protected] How can I make the whole email show up on the email program?
    2. I am getting a "Operation not permitted" error when other people are testing the form. They are completing it with Adobe Reader and it's just not working even if they've filled out all the necessary sections. Any ideas?
    3. Is there a way to make the information come via email in plain text (or pdf that cannot be edited) vs. surrounded by html coding or an editable pdf?
    I am using Designer 7
    Thanks for all of the help,
    M

    >2. I am getting a "Operation not permitted" error when other people are testing the form. They are completing it with Adobe Reader and it's just not working even if they've filled out all the necessary sections. Any ideas?
    Maybe you are trying to submit in PDF format rather than form data.
    Reader doesn't do that.
    >
    >3. Is there a way to make the information come via email in plain text (or pdf that cannot be edited) vs. surrounded by html coding or an editable pdf?
    Editable PDF is not for Reader. If you want to reformat the e-mail
    received, the form should be submitted to a web server, which receives
    the data and sends out a formatted e-mail.
    This is STRONGLY recommended. There are MANY reasons not to think of
    "submitting by e-mail" directly.

  • EMail Questions

    Hey
    I can't wait 'till the iPhone hits Australia. And I want to set up my email and have it all sorted before I buy my iPhone. My question is which email provider should I choose. I am with Windows Live Mail at the moment and I'm happy with it but it's not the paid version (and I don't plan on paying). I am looking into setting up a gMail account. Can get some advice based on features, how easy it is to use, how easy it is to set up.
    p.s I don't plan on paying for any plus packages, just the basic free ones.

    Here is a visual tool from Gmail and iPhone. iphone can configure both IMAP and POP3 accounts.
    1. IMAP is more efficient, so here is the website:

  • Please Guys this is the OO Forum not General Abap QUESTIONS.

    Hi everyone
    This is the OO Forum. There's often stuff here which really has nothing to do with OO.
    <b>For example the question on Table Controls and BDC -- sorry poster of that topic I'm not trying to have a go at you but defintely the wrong forum for that post.
    There's another post at hiding source code.
    This also has NOTHING WHATSOEVER to do with OO  / ABAP objects.</b>
    I think for people who want answers to their questions whether OO related or not will probably get  a much better response if they post to the correct Forum.
    Posting totally non OO related stuff to this Forum not only reduces the usefulness of this Forum to people who genuinely are looking for OO information / answers but also makes it difficult for people to answer your "non OO" question as they are unlikely to be reading this forum.
    I'm not trying to be too difficult here but keeping most posts On Topic makes the Forum far more useful to everyone genuinely interested in OO .
    Cheers

    $299 for the 16GB White which is what I have and as for contracts it is true must buy a contract. now i have heard of people buying the contract and phone then paying the $200 surcharg to end contract then user void phone by cracking it and go through some other companies this is HIGHLEY not advise considering APPLE will not touch your phone once you do so. your running a HIGH risk of errors and I dont even think iTunes will recognize it will it?. and tamara up there $1680 for contract fees *** is that i walked out of store with 16GB White and service for only $389 and first bill with activation charges was only $175, although i do think it is somewhat chincy that you wasnt text need seperate plan phone calls? also need seperate plan. bringing your average mo. price to around $100. **** my WORK phone is only 60 bux a month and has WAY more talk time and texting emails and datat than iPhone Service. I love iPhones safari though. very solid.

  • General BADi question:Call BADi in background job/batch input. Possible?

    Hi out there,
    i'm using thoe following BADi: /SAPSLL/CTRL_SD0C_R3 (Global Trade Service).
    But also, this question is a general question.
    If we are calling on screen the transaction VF01, the BADi is called correctly.
    But unfortunately it seemes that the BADi is NOT called (im not really sure, cause i can't debug the background task) when we are calling a batch input sequence wth f.e. form bdc_transaction VF01 nothing happens.
    Maybe BADi cannot be called in a background task? If it's possible, how could it be monitored. Thare isw no spool entry or anything like that!
    Any answer can help.
    Thank you in advance!
    Regards,
    Timo

    Hi,
    generally BADIs are called in background mode. You can use the following trick to debug your BADI. You just need to create an infinite loop in your BADI implementation. Something like this.
    DATA: l_a TYPE c.
    WHILE l_a IS INITIAL.
    ENDWHILE.
    Obviously when your BADI is called in background mode then program will get into infinite loop. You can easily connect and debug running programs from transaction SM50. You need to select your background process and go to Program/Session -> Program -> Debugging. You will jump directly into your BADI methos with infinite loop. Then you will just set value to l_a and you will start debugging your BADI. If you can not find any process then your BADI is not called in background mode.
    Cheers

  • More email questions

    ok guys, few questions here:
    1. Is it possilbe to format the ghastly email which is sent
    from a quiz? It comes out in random text in no particulay format!!!
    I mean obviously it is formatted in some way but how can i explain
    to my client that they have to interpret the results themselves???
    2. Can you make it automatically send the email when the
    results page is show (so the user doesnt have to click on send
    email button)??
    3. Is it possible to make it so if the user runs out of time
    it goes to the next question automatically? (At present if you run
    out of time it prevents you from doing anything further)
    I like this program but there are really some stupid issues
    where you have no control over the page elements and how they are
    displayed. Why make all the other buttons customisable and not the
    submit buttons etc...
    hope you can help
    thanks

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions. To do this, click here and pick a method; if that page doesn't list one for your country or you're unable to call, fill out and submit this form.
    If you don't see the email reset link, you don't have a rescue email address. Creating one requires answering two of the questions.

  • IWeb Email Question

    when I insert the email icon and configure the email, when people press the icon it opens their email app filled in with my inserted address:
    1) does iWeb allow me to do a web-email that can be done online rather than with an email app
    2) is there a way to add a security so automatic email (spam) scans don't leave emails (like adding the feature to put in numbers/letters that pop up)?

    Actually, I did create a Gmail address for that. It does direct the email to that address if you click on the email icon.
    The question really meant to be sort of like that: When you use iWeb with Podcast etc so users can leave comments then whoever leaves a comment first has to type in the numbers/letters so automatic spamming can't spam that comment. Now with the email icon, can automatic spamming sent you emails there (since there is no such number/letters typing) or is there a way to activate that option also with emails?

  • Cross Platform HTML Email Questions

    Hi,
    I am creating new html emails from within dreamweaver for use in a service like constant contact. The service I use is COMF5. They have a rudimentary (but nice) WSYIWYG editor so I am giving it a whirl in Dreamweaver.
    I first made the mistake of creating a beautiful file in CSS, pasted it in the editor and found divs and info floating all over the place.
    I just found an article by an adobe pro on doing this and ZOMG, what a huge help. Here is what I think I underatand and my question:
    1. Everything is tables, inclding the background which is created at 98%.
    2. The body is to be nested tables.
    3. Attributes are to be defined within the table by use of the property bar and not to include creating css rules.
    4. The one exception is inline styles created within the boundaries of the table.
    5. Important rule is to not have CSS sitting at top of code in document.
    My big question at present is, how can I code links to be other than blue and underlined? I would use CSS to do that on my pages.
    Thanks ain advance for further insight!

    I'll second what Joey said.  Everything inline with email clients.  They are too unreliable, especially with Outlook.  Constant Contact though can be a pain in that you can't just add links to the email if you want them to be tracked.  Search their documentation for the "SimpleURLProperty" tag that they use.  If you do not include this, and the code they leave for you in the code view when you import your own code, none of their tracking features will work.  And this goes for images as well as text links.  Lots of conditions when sending through Constant Contact if tracking is a key.  One of the key reasons I have used other services for awhile now.
