How can I get my email to show on two machines without losing my folders.

My husband and I just got new laptops. We each have two email accounts -- one gmail and one comcast. We also share a third gmail account. With all four computers (the old two and the new two running), for some of the accounts email only shows on one or another machine not both. It turns out my husband had the shared account set up as IMAP and all the others, including my set-up of the shared account are set-up as POP. In researching, it looks like we need to switch to POP. I tried it on the shared account and my emails up to about two weeks ago showed up. Before I do anything with our individual accounts, I want to be sure we won't get a bunch of duplication and that I won't lose all of the folders I have saved. The old machines are Vista and the new Windows 8.1. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Thank you so much. This is my last step moving to my new computer and I am weary of solving the problems. To clarify ----
If I have my email set-up so that I have a filter that automatically moves a new email to a local folder, once I get it, it will then go there and I can access it even if I'm not connected to the network? The local folder and sub-folders are on my hard drive and the [email protected] is on the server?

You don't. so hopefully you've been keeping regular backups.

My old computer crashed. It had Windows XP. My new computer has Windows 7. How can I get my iphone synced with my new computer without losing everything?

You can download a free application that will take your music from your iPhone and place it onto your Macintosh HD.
One of these should suit your needs:

How can i get the videos i recorded in my ipod without losing all it's data(im using another computer)

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A NEW COMPUTER BECAUSE MY OLD ONE BROKE AND ALL ITS CONTENT GOT WIPE OUT..NOW MY PROBLEM IS I CANT CONNECT MY IPOD TOUCH TO MY COMPUTER CAUSE IM AFFRAID THAT ITUNES MIGHT WIPE OUT ALL MY APPS AND MUSIC. BUT I HAVE IMPORTANT VIDEOS THERE THAT I REALLY NEED TO TRANSFER TO MY COMPUTER..HELP PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE.THANKS!♥♥♥

- Authorize the computer for the account used on the iPod. Then connect the iPod to the computer and transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of thos discussed here.
Best iPod to PC
- Make a backup of the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Backup. The backup will contain all the photos and video that were taken by the iPod that are still on the iPod.
- Retore the iPod from that backup.

How can I get my POP account showing in the inbox it's supposed to show in?

Hi-Until a couple of weeks ago all mail received from my IMAP and POP accounts would show up in the correct mailboxes in my Mail inbox list. (Only problem then was that sent mail would never show up in the sent mail folder--always stayed in the inbox.)
Now a new problem has happened----unless I go directly to my charter cable account (P0P account) to retrieve any mail sent to that particular address, the mail goes unnoticed by Mail on my MAC and nothing shows up in the inbox. But--- If I do a test to myself , sending an email to the POP address from my IMAP account from my MAcMAil, my IMAP account will show the email in the inbox of the IMAP account I sent it from as if I'd mailed it to that account. How can I get my POP account showing in the Inbox? And, any suggestions for a fix to getting the "sent" mail to show in the "sent" folder would also be appreciated.
Thanks!

Control click in the tool bar area and customize.

OK. What happens when you try?
Have you updated your Flash to the latest video? Worth trying again, just in case you haven't.
http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Click Install Now, download, and run the installer from your Downloads folder. Make sure you install it all the way (it'll ask you to quit Safari). Then re-launch Safari and try the video sites again. If that doesn't work, download and run Firefox, and try there - let us know if one browser works and one doesn't.

When I click on GBookmarks the menu doesn't drop down anymore. How can I get my bookmarks to show again?

When I click on GBookmarks on the menu bar, my bookmarks don't drop down anymore. How can I get my bookmarks to show again? What shows up now when I click on the GBookmarks are 4 choices: Add bookmarks, manage bookmarks, options, and refresh. How can I get my menu of booksmarks to drop down again? I can go to manage bookmarks and then find my bookmarks, but it's a 3 step process now instead of one. What happened here?

The reviews for the GBookmarks extension agree that there is some problem recently.
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/gbookmarks-google-bookmarks-fo/
The support page lists an email address for support: http://www.suchisoft.com/ext/gbookmarks.php
I ran a web search for other recent discussion and didn't come up with any answers. Hopefully the extension's author has time to look into it.

If the app is G-Toolkit and you have a Gmail app on your iPhone, delete the Gmail app. Apparently the G-Tool kit is tied to a Gmail app. From searching the web my impression is that G-Toolkit is not spyware and is from a legitimate company that produces app for several platforms.

You should have your stuff separate from your mom's. Delete all the apps downloaded or purchased with your mom's Apple ID and download or purchase them with your own Apple ID. Back up files and data first if possible.

What do you mean by picture?
Picture in a message or like a contact picture?

How can I get the picture to show in Photoshop CS3? The thumbnail image appears in the right side panel but the full image isn't showing at all.

What specific information would you need? The program was working just fine early yesterday morning and than when I came back in the afternoon to edit some more pictures that is when I wasn't able to see the full image anymore. It is providing me with all of the editing options as if the picture is there but it is just a blank screen with the thumbnail pic showing in the right panel.

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud

How can I get iCal not to show the same birthday dates from my iCloud?

You don't need them stored locally for a backup. You can manually export your contacts as archive for backup. Also, if you are backing up with Time Machine, you already have a backup. If your hard drive crashed, you would have to rely on your backup or iCloud anyway.
So, if you're comfortable with that, sign out of iCloud. Choose to delete contacts from the computer. When you sign back into iCloud, you should only have iCloud contacts listed in AB. When you open iCal, you should only have one listing for birthdays.
The other alternative is to disable the Birthday c.alendar and create one manually.

How can i get my email out of the file box icon?

How can I get my email out of the file box icon? Sometimes I touch it by accident and the email message goes in there.

Another thing to try is renaming it with a .htm or .html extension.
If that doesn't work either, do you have any other files from your old system? In particular, if you have your old places.sqlite file, you could use that to overwrite your new places.sqlite (bookmarks+history) file.

If you have Mail setup a a client for your Gmail account set iPhoto to use Mail. Then select one of Mail's stationary templates for photos and use it. May not be as good as the iPhoto templates but will be fancier than a plain email window.
