Gmail: deleting mail?? (having to delete on iphone and the computer)
So my gmail works pretty seamlessly on my iphone. The only issue i have is that when i log on to my gmail account online from my computer any mail that i have deleted from the iphone is still there? Is there anyway to not have to delete twice??
And0083,
If you are accessing GMail with the presets on the iPhone it will be using POP3 since that was the only thing available form GMail when the iPhone was released.
POP3 does not update the status of the message back to the server. IMAP does, and GMail can be configured as IMAP now. The instructions to do so are in Google's knowledge base at this link:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=77702&topic=12814
With IMAP the status of a message such as read, deleted, etc are updated back to the server.
Hope this helps,
Nathan C.

Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!
iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu. -

The problem seems to have started since I enabled iCloud and the two Apple devices keep beautifully in synch. I've probably just got some setting wrong but I'm a bit lost and would appreciate some help.
If I put a "new" calandar event in Outlook and then synch this does show up on the Apple devices so the problem is just one way ... if I add something on one of the Apple devices I don't get it to show-up in Outlook.
Many, many thanks for any help from London.Thank you for being patient with a "beginner" :-) I have now realized that I had no understanding of how iCloud would affect things.
Calendar: On the iPhone I have set the default calendar to "From my PC" and now things are working ok. I have done the same on the iPad and this is also working ok. I accept that to keep things in sync I have to connect (by USB) to the PC but this is ok.
Contacts: I was about to make the equivalent changes regarding Contacts and have done so on the iPhone only to find that there is no "From my PC" on the iPad.
Any suggestions/help would be much appreciated.
Would I be better off just getting rid of iCloud and going back to USB sync every now and then. This used to be fine for me. Perhaps I have been making things difficult by mixing iCloud with a non-iCloud device (the W7 PC).
Anyway, once again, many thanks for your patience.

I am going to get an iPhone soon and I was wondering if it could be used with different computers. I am going to use my main computer at my house but not the iTunes on it. I am going to use the iTunes on my friends computer because they have my type of music. Is it possible to use their iTunes on their computer and still use my computer as the main one?
Also I wanted to know how much I will have to use the computer because if it is only a little bit, I will just use their computer as the main one. However, if it is used a lot, I would want to use mine and then theirs for the iTunes only. Thank You.In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred to an iPhone from one computer only. When syncing iTunes content and transferring photos from another computer, all existing iTunes content and photos transferred from another computer will be erased first.
Contact info, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks can be synced with the supported applications on multiple computers.
The iTunes account logged in to with iTunes when syncing is the iTunes account that is available on the iPhone for purchasing music or purchasing free or paid 3rd party apps via the App Store on the iPhone. Doubtful this person will want their iTunes account available on your iPhone which could lead to potential problems - especially if you need to restore your iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed.
You really need to use iTunes on your computer for syncing iTunes content - import your own music into your iTunes library from music CDs and/or purchase your own iTunes music and 3rd party apps with your iTunes account. Doing this with someone else's iTunes library other than you own is considered stealing. -

I can't connect any of my devices to my iTunes. Anytime I plug one of them into my computer I get a new hardware wizard window that pops up and I can seem to load anything from an iPod or iPhone if I run the wizard. Any helpers? I've been using iTunes on this computer for a very long time and this is the first time that this wizard has shown up ever. Please help.
I have replied some one with the same problem.
If your contacts saved in the SIM, you can import them from SIM. Please see this help.

If not, you may use a third tool to recover your lost contacts.

Once I connect my iPhone to the compjuter to sync., the computer crashes, and continues to reboot as long as the charge cable is connect between the iPhone and the computer, once I disconnect it, then the computer and iTunes will function normally.
I had uninstalled and reinstalled the iTunes 3 different times, still I am getting the same results, I therefore had to uninstall the iTune from my computer to be able to do my work, and charge the iPhone at the same time. Please note that few weeks ago, everything was working fine.
What can I do to resolve this issue.
Thank you.
MagdiIf you have photos in the Camera Roll on your iPhone and have preferences set to open an image azure application on your pc when a camera is connected, your pc will do just that. That's how one transfers photos taken with the phone to a PC.
You can do two things to avoid this.
1. Just quit the image capture application and open iTunes. You do have iTunes 10.7 or higher installed on your pc, right?
2. You can change the preferences on your pc to do nothing when a camera is connected. And you can set the preference in iTunes to open iTunes when your iPhone is connected. -
I accidenttly deleted my notes and the icloud cleared all the message from both ipad and iphone ...How can i get it back?? If I can ??
Your notes should be stored in your backup, so if you have backed up the iPad and that backup does contain those notes that you deleted, you can try restoring from your backup. If you haven't backed up the iPad since you created those notes, they are gone.
If you backup with iCloud only, restoring from backup involves erasing the device and then going through the setup all over again and finally restoring from the iCloud backup. This article explains the process quite clearly.
http://gigaom.com/apple/ios-101-set-up-and-restore-from-icloud-backup/
If you backup with iTunes, connect the iPad to your computer, launch iTunes and right click on the device name on the left and select - Restore from Backup. But before you do that .... turn off auto sync in iTunes - without connecting the iPad - launch iTunes and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box at the bottom of that window in order to turn off auto sync.
Email messages are not stored in your backups. -
I recently upgraded to an iPhone 5 and I have this synced with my previous iCloud account. My problem is my old iPhone 4 is taking up 2.5 GB of space in the cloud. Is there a way to delete this iphone from the icloud so I can free up space as it is not needed anymore?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage...... -

Thr bookmarks that I lost I don't need or want on my home computer and so had deleted them previously from the computer. When I synced it took them Off the iPhone. I am afraid to sync again!
Connect your Device to Computer.
Select your iPhone under "Devices" on the left Pane.
On the right Pane, select INFO tab.
Scroll down to "SYNC Bookmark with" make sure the box is checked. Then select your browser bookmark.
Scroll down to bottom and click the "SYNC" or "APPLY" button. -
First i imported my photos to iphoto 8.1.2 when it finished, asked me if i want to "delete them from the camara" i clicked yes and crashed while deleting photos (7,000) from my iphone and the photos disappeared from iphone and iphoto
No early version of iPhoto can open a Library from a later version.
You can try revert the Library with iPhoto Library Manager
