How about automatically syncing email filters in Thunderbird?

I use Thunderbird on a couple of computers but I end up needing to manually create and update my filters on each machine. It would be nice to be able to automatically sync the filters so any changes or additional filters would be available on all of the machines. Even being able to export the filters and import them on another machine would be a help.

There are add-ons for exporting and importing message filters, though I can't see one right now that's being actively maintained.
You can also go about it by by copying the message rule files between computers. Each account has a file named ''msgFilterRules.dat'' which hold the rules for that account.

How do i sync emails between iPad and Macbook Pro

I have the iiPad2 with WiFi. I remember that I used iSync in the past between my Macbook and desktop unit. I also am signed up with me.com. Can anybody please advise me what's the best way to sync my emails? I use Apple's mail program. Thanks.

iSync has never synced email or anything between Macs.
To sync email you need to set your account up as IMAP (not POP3) on your iPad and Mac.
If you are using your MobileMe email address and have configured your MobileMe account on both Mac and iPad, then your email is automatically in sync.

How deactivate automatic sync in Lumia 520

Hi, I would like anyone to help me solve the following matter.
I have a problem that my phone chows up my internet data bundle even when I don't use it. I can just put my phone on a table for hours and find my data disappeared.
The other thing that would like to stop is automatic synchronization when I open OneNote. Please help a brother out! I cannot afford to pay for a lot of internet data everyday.

Switch off data in Settings > Cellular
Ensure you are connecting to WiFi wherever possible which will override cellular
Find the apps using much data and remove or disable their acces (usually the backround process). You can find this information in the Datasense application
Unless you have a minute (as in below 100MB/month) data limit I would not worry about any sync action as the used data is really minimal. I just went abroad for Xmas and only stopped automatic uploads of photos in Settings>backup while leaving any data/mail syncing active and did not use ore than 5-7MB/day

How to automatically forward emails sent to my old Comcast to my new Verizon email?

This MUST be posted somewhere but for the life of me, I can't find it. How do I have emails that are sent to my Comcast email automatically forward to my Verizon email? Also I believe the sender would then be notified that the address has changed?... Thanks: Ed

I believe you can set this up through Trueswitch. Verizon has partnered with them to offer this service for free to their customers.
***Important Note: The forwarding will only work as long as your Comcast email address is still active. - Once Comcast closes your email account, Trueswitch can no longer forward the mail.

How to automatically sync itunes to an external portable drive?

Hello,
I've got my library on an external HD connected to my mac mini. here is what I want to do.
1. On connecting a 2nd portable HD to my mac mini
- I want to be able to automatically sync up itunes music/playlists etc.
2. I want to be able to unplug this portable HD from home, bring it work and connect it to windows machine at work and be able to listen to the same music.
Can this be done? I'm a novice, but been told that this can be done wiht the "automator" application?
Any help would be appreciated
thanks,
karthik

As I've replied to your other threads...
Easy method 1:
Move or Copy entire working library from current location to the root of your external drive. Press & hold down shift (option on a Mac) as you click the icon to start iTunes. Click Choose when prompted, then browse to ..\iTunes\iTunes Library.itl on the external. If you copied the library across then test your new library works properly after renaming the original folder, before deleting the original folder to recover space.
Easy method 2:
If you haven't really started to build your library. Press & hold down shift as you click the icon to start iTunes. Click Create. Browse to the root of the external drive. Create the library as ITunes. Drag your media into ..\iTunes\iTunes Media\Automatically Add to iTunes.
Complex method:
Required if you've already tried other things and now have media & library scattered around. See the post make a split library portable.
in addition...
In all cases the idea is to get a library folder called iTunes containing a media folder called iTunes Media with all media inside this media folder. Once you have the library in this shape it is easy to reconnect to the library with the shift-start-iTunes method if the drive letter changes, move the library to another computer, and backup the library by cloning the folder to another drive.

How do I sync eMail messages in v31, It use to be on the disc space screen...!??

I've recently upgraded my window 7 desktop with a 64 bit OS. I have installed Thunderbird v31.4.0 and am unable to find the checkbox(?) to turn on message sync. My other computer had a previous version of Thunderbird and the checkbox was located on the 'disc space' screen (at the top). When I upgraded Thunderbird on that computer, my email sync continues to work (but I don't know how to control it).
HELP...???!!!

I think your talking about synchronization and storage, an account setting entry only IMAP accounts have. Likewise, Disk Space is a pop mail only entry

Know how to automatically sync iCloud notes on Outlook for Mac 2011?

Hi People,
I've decided to use Outlook for Mac 2011 instead of Apple Mail. Does anyone know how I can setup Outlook notes to sync automatically with my iCloud Notes?
Much appreciated
Kind regards
Doug

You can't.
Outlook for Mac is not compatible with iCloud except for email. See Microsoft's statement here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2648915
Until Microsoft decides to start supporting the industry standard protocols iCloud uses, Outlook for Mac is useless.

How can I sync email, contacts and calendar between computers and phones without a mobileme account?

I recently added a macbook pro, ipad and imac to my work accounts and I'd like to be able to sync all of them together. I believe the POP server that my company is using (small start-up) does not support this. Basically, if I read email on the laptop, it does not show as read on the imac or my iphone. If I send a message from one, it does not show up on the other devices.
I figure there has to be a solution - it's driving me crazy basically having email in 3 different locations and none of it matches.
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I have found that syncing my contacts then un-syncing them results in my current contacts retaining all the info and picture from Facebook. I just don't have the Facebook updates, which I'm happier about anyway.

How can i sync email deletions on my iPhone and iMac, and vice versa?

My email provider is Sky in the UK. While i am able to receive the same emails on both devices (imac and iphone) simultaneously, if I delete one on the iphone, it is not deleted on the iMac, and vice versa. I don't want to have to delete emails twice, once on each machine, but rather only once on one machine (and then that email would automatically disappear from the inbox of the other machine).
Is this possible? My sky account is IMAP on the Iphone, but POP on the IMAC. I tried changing it to IMAP on the iMac, but then i couldn't received email messages in MAIL on the iMac so reverted it back to a POP account.
Any advice appreciated. Spent way too many hours today trying to figure this out.
Thanks,
Joe

if it were imap on both, you'd be able to delete an email from one device and it would remove it from the other. they can't have different protocols and still sync with each other

How to automatically "save" email when viewed?

I'm migrating to Mail after 14+years on AOL where they had a preference to "save email that I read" to an incoming/saved mail folder. Is there a way to do this in Mail automatically so when I open an email to read it, it's automatically saved in an incoming/saved mail folder? I want to MOVE (not copy) every message to a different folder once it's read, for archiving purposes, sort of like a personal diary/journal/blog, as I do a lot of "chatting" in email that documents my life and that of my children.

Let me explain how I tackle this and maybe, if you like it, you can do the same.
I hold several mailboxes on my Mac each has its own rule. Apart from that I have a smart mailbox which only holds my unread mails. When my emails arrive I always read them from my smart mailbox and deleting them if I want. If I want to retrieve them I go to the desired mailbox on my Mac.
I hope this will solve your problem,
ok, that sounds like it might work--but how do I get the emails into the 'on my mac' folder since I can't find a "if mail is read/unread" condition in the rules?
thanks!

How do I Sync Email with BES and Calendar-Contacts-Tasks-Notes with BDS?

I have a Storm that I sync with our BES just for email and I want to sync my calendar, contacts, etc.. with the Blackberry Desktop Software. First I was only able to sync my contacts... not my calendar. Second, everytime I sync I lose my ability to send and receive email from my Storm and have to have our BES admin resend my service books to me so I can sebd abd receuve email again.
Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

Did you install the desktop manager in blackberry enterprise or blackberry internet mode? I'm guessing it might be the latter, and it could be changing your servicebooks because of that... If it is installed for blackberry internet service, try removing it and installing it for blackberry enterprise service (this is a choice during installation).

How to automate an email account turning on/off ??

i want to turn my work email account off at night and then back on in the morning without having to go through all the settings etc. can I automate this on any timer or set up an easy switch using workflow or another app? I want to keep two other accounts on all the time and just effect the one Microsoft exchange account. This will save me having two phones! Thanks.

Dear Hayata,
1) First goto Main Menu, and then select Messaging.
2) From Messaging, click on the Options.
3) In the Options scroll down, find and click on Settings.
4) From settings find and click E-mail.
5) in The E-mail, open Mailboxes (not the Mailbox in se).
6) Mailboxes should have the list of mail boxes. You can click on Option scroll and delete them.
Good Luck.
