Have deleted messages from iPad, why showing up on iMac?
OK. This is a tricky one. Mostly doing iMessage on my iPad during the week, and I delete them after the days converstations. When I go onto my iMac on Saturdays at home, iMessage pops up and starts to load all the iMessages from the week. When I delete them from my iPad, doesn't Apple delete them from their servers? This is scary. I have iMessage prefernces set to always be online so I dont have to open the app while on iMac.
Also another side question, when on iMac, new message comes in and it does not get linked to my contacts? Like it says new message from +1 (555)555-5555 and not the Person who is associtated with that number.
That is the way messages works in its current status. You have to delete the messages from each individual device. Apple may add a feature to delete from all devices, but at this time it is not possible.

You have to make sure you have that exact number linked to your contacts on the imac. Do you use iCloud contacts?

Deleting messages from iPad alone
Currently I have my iPhone, iPad and desktop Mac synced for Messages. But my ipad is running out of room and I don't need Messages on all three. Is there a way to delete all Messages from my iPad only and not have them deleted across all my devices?
Hi caarsen,
If you don't need Messages at all on your iPad, disable it.

How do I deactivate iMessage with my Apple ID?
Sign out of iMessage to deactivate your Apple ID with iMessage on your respective devices in these locations.
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Settings > Messages.
Take care,

I have a email address I no longer use and want, so have deleted it from my address book on my iMac and iPad. It kept reappearing when I started to type a similar email address, so I was advised to delete it by going to Mail on the iMac... Mail > Window > Previous Recipients... and Delete from there... which worked, and it now no longer appears in the To: box when typing a similar email address in Mail on my iMac.
However, even though I have deleted the same contact/email address on my iPad, it still appears when typing a similar email address in Mail on the iPad. How do I perform a similar action as I did on my iMac, to prevent it from reappearing?
Hope someone can help.
Thanks, Simon.
On the iMac..The only way that I currently know of to remove old and invalid email addresses on the iPad is to restore back to factory defaults, which I assume that you won't want to do. You could try leaving feedback for Apple, and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Hi Guys,
I have a question regarding mail management.
Here is my situation:
I have a GMX e-mail account; when I manage my e-mail on a computer (any computer), I always use the web-based e-mail straight from the website. I have this e-mail address configured in Mail on my iPad as an IMAP account. When I check my mail via iPad, it shows me my current inbox, but if I delete messages from iPad, it moves the message to trash, but does not reflect this on the server. So when I go to login to my account from a regular computer, any e-mail(s) that I have deleted through my iPad are still in my inbox at the GMX website.
On my iPad, I have turned Push to Off and I have Fetch set to manual, whenever I launch Mail. I have tried hitting the refresh on my iPad after I move a message to Trash, and my iPad's Mail settings are set to move deleted items to the "Trash" folder on the GMX server. Sending and receiving e-mails are no problem.
What am I doing wrong here? I am tired of deleting messages on my iPad (such as spam) and then having to go onto a computer and login to GMX and delete them again.
Btw, same exact issue on my iPhone with exact same e-mail settings.
Thanks,
EmileThanks for the tip, Ralph.
I just went over to the GMX website and went to their support forum and apparently this is a known problem when accessing e-mail through an IMAP or POP3 e-mail client. A post was made at the end of August saying they are aware of the problem and are trying to fix it.
I've had this issue with my GMX account since my first-generation iPhone and they've just realized it a month and a half ago. I wonder how long it's going to take for them to repair the issue, sheesh!
I will mark this thread as resolved but since I just have to wait for GMX to fix the problem on their side. At least we got to the bottom of this, thanks for the help guys.

I see how to delete songs from iPad, but there are some songs that don't give me the option to delete when I swipe them. Why can't I get rid of these songs?
Do they have a cloud icon next to them? If they do, they aren't on the iPad so you can't delete them. They are in iCloud ready for you to download them if you want to and they are visible in the music app for this purpose.
If you don't want to see these songs that are in iCloud, go to Settings> iTunes & App Store>Show all>Music>Off. -
Is there a way to recover deleted mail from my iPad and recover deleted messages from my onw iPhone?
Is there a way to recover deleted mails sent from iPad and/or recover deleted messages from my iPhone?
A software or even open it? It is very important for me get back the messages sent on December. I did not have a back up at that time, at least that I know, but I change my iPhone and had as I got a micro chip, I could take my contacts from iTunes.
Does it means a back up was done at the Note book I used that time or the messages are lost?
And my mails? From my server, I can recover only from 5 last days!
Thank you for any help!!Thanks for replying - no, I had not done a backup since the shots were taken and then attemped to put them in an album as I did not want to change the enviornment of the phone from when I had inadvertently delted them. Unfortunatlely, when asked "Do you want to delete these photos from all locations," I hit yes and they were also deleted from my Photostream.

Photostream deleting pictures from ipad when it posts a new one, why is this happening?
photostream keeps deleting pictures from ipad when it posts a new one, why is this happening?
keeps deleting pictures from ipad
Where is it deleting the photos from? The Camera Roll? The Photo Stream album?
Have you exceeded one of the limits? The Photo Stream album will only keep the last 1000 photos and may remove the older photos, if you have more than 1000 photos in the stream.
See: iCloud: Photo Stream limits -
I am having a problem with email. I can receive and send, but when I delete, the deleted messages return into either Trash or Bin or both whether or not I have deleted them from my PC.
The only way I can get rid of them permanently, is to go into my area of my providers site(Sky) and empty all of the boxes there. I imagine it's a setting, please advise.For IMAP mail only.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>tap on mail account>Archieve Messages>OFF -
Is there any way to actually delete messages from my iPhone? I have already synced my iPhone, updated it, and deleted all of my backups but the messages I have "deleted" still appear in the spotlight search.
If you already have an iPhone backup or an iCloud backup, just follow the instructions on the page below

If you didn't back up your iPhone, try to use WhatsApp Pocket to recover your chats:
