Gmail-Can't fine or delete from Inbox

Since updating to Maverick I can't delete messages from my inbox or file them away. Well I can but go to another account inbox and come back and its back in the inbox. Everyhing works fine on iOS devices. Odd, I can see the messages in the folder I file them but they still aren't removing from the inbox. Any idea?

This is one of the largest bugs in Mavericks’ Mail app, which affects Gmail accounts and Google Apps email accounts. This used to work just fine in previous versions of OS X, so it is a brand new problem in Mavericks:
Mail can’t delete messages from the Inbox unless Google’s “All Mail” folder is visible in Apple Mail. If you try to delete a message from the inbox, the message only disappears temporarily, then reappears moments later. It seems like Apple Mail never removes the “Inbox” label from the deleted messages, so the messages just keep reappearing back in the Inbox over & over again.
The workaround is not a desirable one: It requires the user to make Google's “All Mail” folder visible to IMAP clients (via Gmail's "Settings>Labels” page). However, this workaround is not desirable because of 2 bigger problems:
(1) Making the “All Mail” folder visible in Apple Mail will suddenly make dozens of gigabytes of emails start taking up valuable hard drive space, because every single email that has ever been archived on Gmail/Google Apps will suddenly be written to the Mac’s hard drive. This can be a real problem on a machine with a small hard drive, such as the MacBook Air. Hiding the “All Mail” folder prevents these messages from taking up valuable hard drive space.  Not to mention that all of these messages are DUPLICATES OF MESSAGES THAT ALREADY APPEAR in other IMAP folders, so showing the "All Mail" folder in Mail is absolutely pointless.
(2) Whenever the “All Mail” folder is visible, every new message that comes into the “inbox" also shows up as a new message in the “All Mail” folder as well, so new messages appear like they are coming in twice. Also, users are forced to mark their messages as “read" in two locations: the “Inbox" AND the “All Mail” folder.
The ideal solution would be for Mail to operate how it used to operate: Users should be able to delete messages from the Inbox, without having the “All Mail” folder visible in Apple Mail.
Please report this bug to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback and hopefully they will fix it in a software update soon!

  • Can emails be bulk deleted from Iphone 4s or does each have to be marked individually then deleted.  Trash can be bulk deleted.

    Can emails be bulk deleted from Iphone 4s or does each have to be marked individually then deleted.  Trash can be bulk deleted.

    Each has to be deleted.
    But it can go faster if the iPhone is held in the horizontal position, then on the left side listing tap Edit in the upper raight bar of that pane, and just tap each email to be deleted, then when you have a batch to delete, tap delete at the bottom left.  That is the fastest way I have found.

  • Can i recover emails deleted from the cloud after reformating my HD

    can i recover emails deleted from the cloud after reformating my HD, these are very important emails, after reformatting my hard drive to fix some trouble i was having w/ maverics, these copies were deleted, and my icloud deletes messages more than a month old. help??

    Hi,
    If you use the iCloud.com login or the Mail App and "fetched" the Mail and deleted that way there is not way to get it back.
    You could have archived it or placed it in Folders (created in Mail or on the web Login) and that will have stored them on the IMAP server and they would have been retrievable.

  • Messages Automaticlly Deleted From Inboxes

    I have 2 Macs (running OS10.9.5), 2 iPads & 2 iPhones 4S (running iOS8). I am using Apple Mail as my email client. If I delete an email message from the Inbox on one of my Macs or devices, that message is also deleted from the Inbox on all of the other Macs/devices as well. I assume that this is a syncing issue among the Macs/devices. Although probably unrelated, this problem started suddenly after I moved to a different town & subsequently changed ISP. The same problem occurs whether I use the ISP's server or the Gmail server.
    This has me baffled. I would appreciate any suggestions that might help to resolve this issue. Thank you kindly!
    Kit

    Hello kitjv,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    What you are experiencing here is that your new ISP's email has an IMAP server, so this is expected behavior.  To learn more about email account types see below.
    IMAP accounts
    With an Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) account, incoming and outgoing messages are stored on a mail server until you delete them. When you connect to the mail server, all your mailboxes are synced so that the messages on your Mac are the same as those on the server. You can read and manage messages from any device that you use to access your account, and download messages or attachments to work with when you’re not connected to the Internet.
    Microsoft Exchange accounts
    An Microsoft Exchange account is similar to an IMAP account, with respect to messages being stored on a mail server and accessible from multiple computers and locations. You can use flags in an Exchange account with some limitations.
    For an Exchange account to be set up in Mail, the Exchange server must support Exchange Web Services (EWS). To learn more about Exchange Server, contact your server administrator.
    POP accounts
    With a Post Office Protocol (POP) account, incoming messages are stored on a mail server and are downloaded to your Mac when you access your account. The messages remain on the server until they’re deleted from the server.
    About account types
    Take care,

  • Email Sync Deleted From Inbox After Download

    I have a Galaxy S5 and I have the email account setup to sync and download my email from my cable account.  The emails are reflected in my inbox on my phone; but after I download the email from the server to my Outlook on my pc, and deleted them from the server, my entire inbox on my phone is completely gone now.  How can I download the email to my phone and keep them there even though I download it to my pc and delete the emails from the server?  I used to have a Droid Bionic and I was able to download the email and it would stay on my phone email even though I later deleted them from the server.  I tried to unsync the email account but now it won't download any emails at all.  I hit refresh but it says the email sync is off, and no emails are downloaded.  Am I missing some setting?

    the only way it stayed on your phone after deleting from outlook/server was if you weren't syncing between the 2.
    as long as sync is off, refreshing does nothing.
    i've gone the opposite way, deleting costco, walmart, etc from the phone, so i wouldn't have to scroll thru tons of emails on the phone, if i was only looking for a single email by not checking "leave a copy on server"....so i could look at costco, walmart, etc on the pc when i had more time.
    sorry you're having problems.

  • Can't access the "delete from server" option in AOL mail setting.

    iPhone 4s, ios 5.1, Verizon customer. I have never had an issue until this phone. Any ideas why I can see the "delete from server" option, but I can't check it? It's really annoying to delete emails from my phone and then have to go back and delete from my computer.
    Thank you in advance.

    Is the email account that has this problem a POP account or IMAP.  If POP, there should be a setting in the account's setting that determines whether an email is deleted from the server when downloaded.  If IMAP than deleting on the device should delete on the server and other devices/computers.  A problem can occur if the other devices have already downloaded the same email that you are trying to delete.  It may take some time for it to delete from other devices.  And some providers have bugs in this process.  My carrier is Verizon, but I never use their email service.

  • How can we fine and delete unused variables?

    Hi , This is Kumar,
    I have been working for some Upgrade project. My manager asked me the way  to know unused variables which are already declared in the program . But i don't know any special way to find them.
    Normally for Internal tables we are using CLEAR, REFRESH AND FREE.
    So,
    How can we delete unused variables which are already declared in  program?
    If anybody have any idea , kindly let me know.
    Thanks & Regards,
    P.N.Kumar.

    Hello friend,
    in SE24,SE38 and SE80 there is a menu called "Refactoring" which can enable you to delete unused variable defined in your source code automatically.
    Of course it is not the only functionality of this poweful tool. Please read the article below:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/2054857b-1b4d-2c10-f7a5-d283a11f6789
    I am sure you can benefit a lot from it not only know how to delete unused variable

  • Can a request be deleted from Overwrite ODS?

    Hi,
    Can I delete a request from a Over write ODS? and also let me know when can a request is deleted with out affecting dependent reqeusts in an Overwrite ODS and Additive ODS?
    Cheers,
    Raj

    Hi.
    Do you mean to delete the activated requests ?
    If yes then if you delete the inbetween request then the request that had the higher number will also be deleted.
    If its not activated then you can delete any one you wish.
    If your request is activated in the ODS, You know the range of records you need to delte irrespective of the request you should go for selective deletion.
    If you require to delete the complete request then its obvious to go with the request deletion.
    Assign points if helpful.
    Regards

  • Messages won't delete from inbox

    Just upgraded to iOS7 on both iphone 4s and ipad2. In mail, on both devices (which are linked) deleted messages won't erase from the inbox - even though they have been permanently deleted from the mail editor on my computer. When I swipe left and hit trash, the message goes away for one second then reappears. I've tried re-booting the phone, didn't work. I definitely have the right passwords associated with the mail account in place. And haven't made any other changes to the mail settings since upgrading the operating system. I noticed that no one else has posted this problem using iOS7 yet, but have seen some threads using earlier formats - none of which were helpful in fixing my problem   thoughts? suggestions?

  • Emails get deleted from inbox after viewing them on iphone 5s

    Hello all,
    I've just upgraded to an unlocked (tmobile) iphone 5s 32gb w/ IOS 7.0.4 last week. (Unlocked / TMobile since i live/work in asia but previously lived in Texas)
    Prior to that i had an iPhone 5 16Gb w/ IOS 7.0.4.
    I've setup yahoo,gmail and outlook/hotmail without any problems. However my business email account which i've always setup with IMAP to view on my iphone, ipad and work laptop is having problems several days after using the iphone 5s.
    What happens is that whenever I check my work email, i dont even get all but just a few of them, once those are read and i go back into my inbox they are removed and the whole inbox shows: "NO MAIL"
    I've checked all settings and removed not jsut the work account but all mail boxes as well.
    Made sure its all IMAP not POP on all devices.
    Incoming/Outgoing mail servers are on, with host and username and password entered correctly.
    Deleted Messages - Never removed.
    Delete Server -  Never
    I've setup the new phone from a backup copy of my previous phone.
    I've setup the new phone as NEW phone and still having same problems.
    I've removed ALL mailboxes, rebooted and re-added them and still problems with work mailbox.
    Never had a problem with mail on my iPhone 5 and current iPad is also fine.
    Any Ideas?

    You can configure it.
    Go to : Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendar/your email account and click on the account on top of the screen.  Click advanced.  Scroll down to the bottom, and under "deleted messages" options are : one day, one week, one month, never.  Based on your question you probably want "never".
    Don't forget that if you get your emails through IMAP (you probably do), if your iPhone deletes the emails after one month, they will disappear from your laptop too...  This is the price to pay to have your emails in sync between your iPhone and laptop, though.

  • Exchange 2010 + Outlook 2013 = Items deleted from inbox, Keep Re-Appearing. (Cached mode outlook only)

    Hey Team,
    We have a single user who when she deletes items from the Inbox they re-appear (in the inbox), if she is running in cached exchange mode. The items do not re-appear in OWA.
    She is not experiencing any network connectivity issues
    We have rebuilt her MAPI profile including deleting all existing OST files
    We have removed and reinstalled outlook / office 2013
    She is the only user with the issue
    There are no Sync issues
    As soon as we disable cached exchange mode this issue immediately goes away, she is running Office 2013 RTM.
    Any Ideas,
    Thanks,
    Robert
    Robert

    Hi Robert,
    If change another PC to configure her mailbox within outlook 2013, is there the same issue?
    In addition, you can try to move her mailbox to another database and check if any helps.
