Help! All mail coming in on my iPad is already marked as read.

I have had my iPad for 1 month and have had no problems. I have a PC laptop that runs outlook, a blackberry, and my iPad which all access my yahoo account. I leave the messages on the server as I like to check my email from wherever I may be. 2 nights ago, I updated my blackberry software and ever since, all my email is marked as read on my iPad. Even when I hit refreshen the iPad, I see the new emails come in as already read. Help! Any advice?

I have this same problem with one POP account on mine (no blackberry here). Have had it for quite some time, tried all the usual solutions and nothing has worked. So while I don't have any brilliant advice for you, you're not alone, but here's my previous thread on the subject with the basic troubleshooting suggestions people made:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2648697&tstart=0
Maybe something there will help you, although nothing has worked for me.
The emails are normal on all my computers and my ipod, just not on the ipad.

Help - all Mail windows disappeared/hidden

I have a problem: when I launch Apple Mail (Leopard, 10.5.6) all windows are hidden. If I select a new viewer from the File menu, I can see the viewer exists in the Windows menu, but I cannot see it on screen. Quitting/restarting makes no difference.
System setup is a MacBook Pro with external 24 inch monitor attached. Disconnecting/reconnecting the external monitor makes no difference. This problem occurred after a system restart (I had to do a hard restart on the machine due to an unresponsive application that would not force quit)
I wrote an applescript to see what is going on.
tell application "Mail"
tell front window
set {x1, y1, x2, y2} to (get bounds)
log {x1, y1, x2, y2}
end tell
end tell
Result: (*-1411, 0, -71, 878*)
So I set the bounds of the window to 0,22,500,500 and ran again. Now result shows (*0, 22, 500, 500*) but the window is still invisible! Tried bringing window to front, checking that it isn't hidden. I'm completely stumped. Does anyone have any suggestions on what might be going on here?
Note this applies to all windows in Apple Mail (new Message, new viewer, About Mail, Preferences etc). The only windows I've been able to display are the palettes like Show Colors or Show Text.
Thanks in advance...
~ Rodney

A little more info.
I ran the following applescript to get all properties of Window 1 ( default message viewer window).
tell application "Mail"
get properties of window 1
end tell
The results are:
{zoomed:false, closeable:true, resizable:true, miniaturized:false, document:missing value, bounds:{147, 272, 555, 633}, titled:true, floating:false, miniaturizable:true, zoomable:true, modal:false, class:window, name:"Previous Recipients", id:335, index:1, visible:true}
end tell

Question: how do you handle mail coming in via relays

I discovered a problem I'd like your opinions on.
Assume my external DNS entries look like
mydomain.com MX 10 mail.mydomain.com
mydomain.com MX 20 mail.myprovider.com
The first entry points to an Ironport, well protected. But the spammers know that, so they deliberately pick the second - the provider's sendmail. That accepts everything and tries to get it off to mail.mydomain.com. Of course, there will be a lot of unknown recipients, so the directory harvest protection kicks in and blocks. As a result, the queues fill up there with thousands of mails.
Now you could say: just drop all mail coming in that way. But of couse I cannot. There might be the odd legitimate mail in there.
What now?
Option a) Accept all mail coming in from that host even if the recipient is invalid an drop it silently. Don't know how to do that. Apparently the listener cannot discriminate between connecting hosts.
Option b) get rid of that secondary MX. Won't help anyway, as it is always cluttered with junk.
Option c) host your own secondary MX. Ok if you have redundant connections as well. But not if you need a buffer for mails in case your connection is down.
Option d) pick a provider that offers Spam-protection. Well, what would I need the Ironport for then?
Share your thoughts. Give me a hint. Tell me the page in the manual I overlooked.
Cheers
Henrik

Create a sender group under the Host Access Table to cover the IP range of your providers's mail servers and then apply a mailflow policy with the DHAP set to an unlimited number of invalid recipients (in effect turns off DHAP for your providers's servers). The HAT is processed in the email pipeline before the LDAP acceptance. Once you have set that up - I would configure incoming relays to recognise your provider's mail servers so that the "real" host sender SBRS information can be used to determine spam messages more accurately.

How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? To my horror, I've emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes (and why do I need to enter this question three times?"

How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"?
To my horror, I emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes .
All mail also disappeared from my iPad, I suppose because they are "synched"
(Also, no offense, but why do I need to enter this question multiple times?)
Thanks for any thoughts.

I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

Hi I really need help with re-activating my little sisters iPad

Hi
I really need help with re-activating my little sisters iPad, i already set it up a couple of months ago when i bought it,but unfortunately she disabled it by forgetting her password. i followed the necessary steps to reset it again, when the iPad came back on and we put the apple id and password it kept refusing it, i even reset the password, which sent the verification the email account, i followed the steps to reset, But then i noticed the message at the top of the activate screen with the message “this iPad is currently linked to the following apple ID _______ with a a few hidden dashes, but at the end of the email it says co.uk, but the problem is the email ends with .com. I have no idea how this happened, and its driving me insane and my little sister only used her iPad for a month before this happened. for some reason the the iPad email address ends in co.uk when the actual email ends with .com
I also set up the software find my ipad
Please help

You will probably have to contact Apple to see if they can help.

Deleting messages from 'All mail'

Hi
I use Mail v 5.3 om my MacBook Air.(In the UK)
We have 2 accounts running on it. One is *****.*****@virginmedia.com
The other is ******.*****@ntlworld.com.
I am not certain but am led to believe that these are, in fact, gmail accounts.
The problem is that it appears impossible to delete messages from each of the 2 'All Mail' mailboxes so that each now contains approx 6000 messages.
Messages can be deleted but after a few minutes they re-appear in All Mail mailbox.
I am not that savvy and have read some stuff on the forums but so far nothing has worked e.g. I have tried setting the Trash mailbox to 'Use for Trash'. If I then delete messages they go away for a short time then re-appear. Is it because they are being reloaded from the mail server and, if so, how do I prevent this?
To get an answer to this I suspect I may have to give more info so feel free to interrogate me!
Thank you

Ironically it looked like someone had this question about a year ago with the same ISP.

GMail (Google Apps Mail) allows you to choose which folders will sync with an IMAP configured client. Let's try these steps:
1.) Click on the gear wheel in the upper right hand corner of the GMail interface and then select Settings.
2.) Then go to the Labels heading and click it.
3.) On the far right column you should have a check box option called, Show in IMAP. In this case you'll want to uncheck the All Mail box it sounds like.
I had to wait about 2-3 minutes and relaunch Apple Mail after checking/unchecking boxes before they propagated in Mail.

E-Mail Not Marked as Read on Phone

Hello,
I have a 9650 with BIS on Sprint. I get my e-mail through OWA. When I open or mark as read an e-mail on my phone, my Outlook inbox on my desktop is updated accordingly. However, when I open an e-mail on my desktop, my inbox on my phone is not updated to show that the e-mail has been opened. I have to go in an mark as read all of the items, which is a royal pain.
Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks a lot.

Yahoo mail, problem messages are marked as read

hi,
i am able to read the messages from yahoo mail using pop3, but even new messages are marked as read once retrieved through client code.
How to leave new messages as unread?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
-Satish.

As explained in the JavaMail FAQ, the POP3 protocol,
and thus the POP3 driver for JavaMail, does not
support any flags for messages.
I don't know what you mean when you say that new
messages are marked as read when retrieved by
client code. POP3 doesn't know what's new or what's
read. The Yahoo web interface might be assuming
that messages retrieved by a POP3 client have been
read, however. I don't know of any way to control
that.

I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

I have an ipad 2 and I noticed I have over 3000 emails in All Mail. I want to know how can I delete these emails. It looks like you can only do it one at a time. It will take me forever. Please help me.

You can only delete them one at a time on the iPad. If you have an IMAP email account, go to your email in on the server using a web browser and select as many as you can at a time and delete them that way. That action will be reflected on the iPad. In IMAP - whatever you do on one device syncs across all devices. If you have POP email - start deleting one at a time.

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but appear in the Gmail All Mail box. This is occurring on both my iphone and ipad.even if I delete an email, it reappears here. Slowly driving me mad! All help appreciated

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but they turn up in the Gmail All Mail box.
Even if I delete an email it pops up again here. This is happening on both my ipad and iphone4s and is gradually driving me mad.
Any help would be much appreciated.

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

Can anyone help - my mail on my ipad will not connect to the server. My internet access is fine. How can I get my email to connect to the server?

My ipad will not connect tot he server when trying to access my mail. This has been happening since last Sunday. Some have said it is due to the latest software update. I am able to connect to the internet.
I am not having this issue on iPhone.
I checked all the settings, the wireless router in my house and at work.
I have completed a hard reset of the device.
I had our IT guy at work look at it.
He said to contact Apple....
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

HT1277 Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my phone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this? Is there a setting I need to check?

Mail on my Mac computer does not update when I update my mail on my iPhone and iPad. Can anyone help me with this? Is there a setting that I need to check?

All that you had to do was to sign into the old account in order to update those apps. What I mean is that you just needed to sign into that account in the store settings like I described and that should have worked. You didnt need to enter the credit card information again - you justed needed to use the old ID and password.
Anyway, I think the good news is that if everything else is OK with the new account, just download iBooks with the new ID - it's a free app so its not like you have to pay for it again. I'm not sure what the other App is that you are talking about - but if it is the Apple Store App - that is free as well.
Try this anyway, when you try to update iBooks, just use the old password if the old ID still pops up.
Did you try signing into the store settings with your new ID and see what happens with the updates then?

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday and as we use the email for business I desperately need it.

I receive both My husbands emails and mine through my ipad. We both have gmail accounts. His emails are coming down on the ipad but not mine. I haven't received mail since Saturday. We use the email for business I desperately need it and I don't have a laptop anymore as it is broken. In my wisdom I desired to buy an ipad instead, what a mistake.

The iPad will support multiple Gmail accounts, but of course you have to set each one up individually. Did you set up both accounts? Go into Settings/ Mail, Contacts, Calendars to confirm both accounts exist. If they do, also familiarize yourself on how to navigate between accounts to make sure you can view your Inbox. You may also want to check your settings to make sure that you have the default account set up as you expect for Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Notes (if you're using all those features). That is important only when initiating something new, you have to have a default account to do such a thing so make sure the default is your account since it is your iPad (assuming that's what you want).
Alternatively, install the free Gmail app and then use only his (or your) account with that app and use the standard iOS Mail app for the other account.
