If the Inbox for this account only is revealed, is there any triangle beside it?
Ah, yes, I see! Silly me to be looking for Sent mail under "Sent"! Indeed, there's a disclosure triangle next to the account name under "Inbox", and wen you open it, it shows Drafts, Sent, spam, and Trash. The sent items are indeed there.
Mind you, my Dot Mac accounts show up normally, i.e., their sent mail goes under "Sent". Wish all IMAP accounts did that. It sure isn't logical to show sent mail inside an inbox...
But to answer your question: In addition to having the "Sent" folder for the account under "Inbox", I also have a folder for the account under "Sent". This folder disappears when I check the box to store messages on the server. There were emails in it (the ones I placed there myself). I have now moved those emails to the sent sub-folder under the account under "Inbox". Even with the "store on server" option UNchecked, the emails were instantly duplicated to the server, so that they were present both locally and remotely. I then checked the "store on server box"; this made the mailbox for the account under "Sent" vanish.
To summarize: things appear to work normally now, except that I find it very inconvenient to have to look in two separate "Sent" folders to find emails I've written.

    thanks

    You can't change the name of your @me.com or @icloud.com address, but you can set up an alias with a different name that will still deliver email to your iCloud inbox.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.

  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

  • How can I change my e-mail on icloud to match my Apple id?

    I have recently changed my phone and got a new Apple ID, unfortunately it keeps popping up to enter the password on i cloud for my old Apple id which I cant remeber..... how can i change it so its the same??

    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID, verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • How can I change my default mail?

    I have four email accounts set up on my iPhone 5s. When I compose an email, a business email address is always chosen as default. How can I change that to my personal account?

    Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Mail: Default Account > Change it to whatever you want it to be.
    Make sure you're choosing the 'Default Account' listed under the Mail heading, not the Contacts heading.

  • How can I change my Outlook mail settings to only download emails manually?

    I am waiting for my iPhone 4S, but in the meantime I am still using my iPod 3G with iOS5.
    When I go to mail, my three email accounts in Outlook automatically download new emails.
    How can I change this to only manually download email, i.e., on my command/request?
    I could find no such option in Settings, except for FETCH, which still downloads email when I use the account to simply read email, i.e., when I open my Inbox for a given Account, emails still automatically download.
    Thank you

    Thanks, B-rock
    Yes, that's what I finally deduced.
    I'd still like to read without downloading.
    Still looking for a place to limit the number of emails that can be downloaded at a time.

  • IOS 7 back ground makes it difficult to read the text.  How can I change it in mail and messages?

    HI,
    iOS 7 back ground makes it difficult to read the text.  I know I can't change it in mail and messages, but Apple really needs to allow some customization.  This is really difficult to read for older eyes.

    yeah I agree with all you guys statements, the color scheme on IOS 7 *****,
    I am having to constantly turn on off on off on off  "invert color" mode just to switch between
    the home screen, typing, and reading text messages, its an absolute pain!!
    I never had any of this trouble in IOS 6.
    What they SHOULD do, is make 2 different color schemes
    one LIGHT color scheme,
    and one DARK color scheme, for those using "invert colors" frequently.
    See, what Apple doesn't seem to understand is, when you turn on "invert colors",
    the lock screen turns bright WHITE, so you have to turn invert colors OFF just to read the lock screen,
    then back ON when you want to type an email, read a text message, etc etc, then turn it off again when
    you want to play a game.
    and see, after awhile, when you switch invert colors on off on off after so  many times, it drains on the devices resources, & you have to reboot the device to get accessibility options working again.   I have to reboot the device several times a day now just because of that, when its just a simple fix of adding a darker color scheme as a 2nd or alternative option. 
    I mean, even as a normal sighted person, turning on invert colors is annoying when your at the lock screen or playing a game, think about those of us who depend upon it just to read text on the screen..  VoiceOver has the smilar issues when you have to turn it off on off on all the time it drains the system resources of the phone also,
    so I agree completely...
    but ya know, they don't listen to us...  cuz its an option they don't use, so they don't understand... If they used that option for even 5 seconds, they'd understand what we're talking about....  What Apple should do is hire one of us as a beta tester to help them test out these types of issues,  from one of us like myself who knows a thinkg or two about accessibility options of the phone.
    I've been an Apple idevice fan for years, but, IOS 7 was a major disappointment in the accessibility arena..
    kind regards,
    Tom
