How can I leave emails unread on the server even when I open it on iphone

Hey,
I adore the way iphone gets me all my emails at the instant they were sent. Only thing is I sometimes open the email just to check if it's something emergent, otherwise I prefer to read it at home on a PC.
Is there anyway such that when you open the email on the iphone it's not "marked as read" on the gmail server for example ? Is there maybe a way you can get data from the server (reading the email) but not sending anything back (the act of turning it from unread email to read email) ?
If not, then is there anyway such that you mark emails as important or any such thing using the iphone ?
Thanks

No, because the iPhone doesn't download the entire message from the server until you open it. The iPhone only downloads the header of the emails from the server and then once you open the email, it will communicate with the server and download the rest. Once that phase happens, the server marks the email as read.
The only thing you can do, is mark each email as unread after you read it. You can do this from inside each individual email, Apple hasn't created a feature yet that will allow you to mark multiple emails at a time and mark them as read or unread.

How do I tell Firefox to leave email messages on the server when my Tools Options doesn't show Account Settings?

I am trying to get my emails forwarded to my Blackberry. I have set up my Blackberry with the new email destination, which Blackberry confirmed. I receive the emails are not being forwarded to my phone. When I consulted Blackberry's help, it said that I needed to go into my server setting and select the option to leave email messages on the server. I work in Firefox, and when I look under Tools, there is no option to do this.

Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access web mail, you need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?

How can I show album art in the mini player when playing songs from a plugged in iPhone?
When I play from my phone and switch to the mini player it's always showing the music notes in the thumbnaill. It'd be nice if it could get album art off of the phone.
I'm on iTunes version 11.0.4.4

He @mracole,
it is very nice that you post a solution to complete the library with artwork for album's that do not have an artwork. Your solution perfectly addresses the problem for assigning artwork, BUT this thread is about CHANGING artwork for albums already uploaded into iTunes Match. Just try to replace for example a blue artwork cover for an album with a red one. If you made it in a simple way (without deleting the album from iTunes Match and local changes on the files with an external ID3-Application or 2 or more iTunes libraries on different Mac's) this is the right place to give a solution. I really tried for hours to change the artwork to make them visible in landscape cover flow mode on my iPhone5. In rare cases I made it, but then the covers sometimes where restored to the old onces - exacly how it is mentioned by Starhawk
As long as there is no simple way to change the cover of an iTunes Match stored album (you can change title, artist and so on without hitting "update iTunes Match" over all distributed Library on different devices - this date will be synchronized almost instantly) I considered the behaviour from iTunes as BUGGY! For me the local artwork cache (and if there is any iCloud artwork cache - I don't know) do not interfere with iCloud. Even when I delete the whole local cache (album artwork music - everything) I do not manage to change the artwork.

How can I stop emails pushed to the Curve from getting marked as "Read" in Outlook!

I get 100 or so emails a day, and get them bolded in Outlook until I read them. In two of my three email accounts, the emails remain bolded in Outlook even after being pushed to the Curve. In the third, which runs through my work server, all emails come in unbolded as if they're already read.
This is confusing me and making it hard to go back and pick up important emails (and delete others). Anyone got any ideas of how to fix this in my email set-up on the Curve?
Thanks much.

your other two email accounts, which type are they? MSN, Hotmail, Yahoo, or Gmail or another provider? I have one of each of these and i have mine setup as delete on mailbox and server, wireless reconcile on and on conflict mailbox wins, so when i see these emails on my computer, they are already read and if deleted( yahoo and gmail) will be deleted on the server, the msn and hotmail just stay as read but not deleted.

When I delete domething on Mac Mail it automatically deletes it on my Yahoo server. Why and how can I get it left on the server?

When I delete something on Mac Mail it automatically is deleted on the Yahoo server. Why and how can I stop this happening and leave it on the server?

I believe that that is how IMAP accounts are designed to work, if you delete an email from a computer or device then it will be deleted from the server. If possible you could try setting up the account as a POP account in the Mail program and you should then get a 'remove copy from server' tickbox (which will need to be unticked) on the account's Advanced tab in Mail > Preferences.

How can I filter alerts shown in the Server app?

In the time I've been running OS X Mavericks Server, the only alert to come up in the Server app's Alerts pane is "Virus detected in inbound email". That's about as surprising as finding that water is wet, so I'd like not to see those alerts. I don't want to turn off the email filtering, I just want don't want to hear about this one kind of event.
How can I filter the alerts in general or this one in particular?

Hi ephraimephraim
I dont know if you found a solutions, but I hit the same problem so here is what I worked out...
Go to: Mac HD/Library/Server/Mail/Config/amavisd
In there you will find a file called amavisd.conf
Make a backup copy of this just incase! Now open the file using TextWrangler (its free from here http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/download.html).
Now scroll down to line 119 and it will look like this:
#$virus_admin              = "[email protected]"; # notifications recip.
#$spam_admin               = '[email protected]';
#$spam_quarantine_to       = '[email protected]';
#$banned_quarantine_to      = '[email protected]';
#$virus_quarantine_to      = '[email protected]';
What I waneted to do was stop the useless "Virus detected in inbound email" emails and just send a copy of the emails to one account that I could keep an eye on, so this is what I did.
First deside on a alias to use, such as [email protected],
Now you can insert that like this virus-admin\@$mydomain its relly is important to add the \@$mydomain this resolves up the top of the file so it should now look like this
#$virus_admin              = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
#$spam_admin               = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$spam_quarantine_to       = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$banned_quarantine_to      = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
#$virus_quarantine_to      = 'virus-admin\@$mydomain';
now delete the # notifications recip. after the virus_admin to stop the Virus Notifications, then I deleted the # before the spam_quarantine_to, banned_quarantine_to, virus_quarantine_to this "turns on" the line and then add # notifications recip. after them, so you should end up with
#$virus_admin              = "virus-admin\@$mydomain";
#$spam_admin               = "virus-admin\@$mydomain";
$spam_quarantine_to       = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
$banned_quarantine_to      = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
$virus_quarantine_to      = "virus-admin\@$mydomain"; # notifications recip.
Now just create a user on the server called virus-admin of add it as an alias using Workgroup Manger.
Hope this helps

How can I choose another computer in the same Wi-Fi network to sync my iPhone, while both two computers' iTunes shows my iPhone on their left list?

I got an iMac first, let me call that iMac "A", and I used to sync my iPhone to A. Then I got a macbook, let me call that macbook "B". When I use B for the first time, I used Migration Assistant to transport all the files and settings from A.
After that, when I use A and B in the same Wi-Fi network, both of their iTunes shows my iPhone on their list. And I can sync my iPhone to both A and B without the warning window showed up. But, I can't manage both two iTunes library at the same time, so I want to choose only B to sync my iPhone. And I found out that, in fact, my iPhone always trying to sync with A, not B, when I turn on the Wi-Fi sync option. Now I can only use cable to sync my iPhone with B, and that's not over. I found sometimes all of my apps are selected when I tried to sync my iPhone with B, no matter how many times I changed that setting, the next time all the apps will come back to be selected again!
How can let my iPhone forget A and accept B?

Actually I think we need to wait on an update from iTunes to update its compatability with the new iPhone software. They usually release a new version of iTunes with the iOS. So I hope to see an update from apple by the end of the week or maybe even today.
Needless to say. I am experiencing the same issue as well. I've tried all the proposed fixes listed above. It's gotta be a software compatability issue.

How can I save a file in the server?

Hello,
I am writing a Java Web Start program that it will generate a html file, how can I save the generated file in the server, fro example, the directory where I stored my JAR files. Because right now, it will create the html file in the local client mahcine instead of the server. Can anyone tell me how can I do this? Thanks you.

Yeah, thanks but that's not what I was trying to ask.
I know that you can save and open a document by performing these three steps:
1. Confirming to save a file to the Downloads folder
2. Open the download manager by clicking the temporarily green arrow
3. Clicking on the downloaded file
What I would like to know is whether or not it is possible to have Firefox open a saved file ''automatically''. At the moment, if I choose to open it automatically, it is only saved to my temp folder.
It would be great though if it was saved to my Downloads folder ''and'' opened with the respective program on my pc. Is there a way to do this?

How can I disable excel addin on the Server side?

Hi, is there any way to disable excel addin on the server side?
We want to disable it so that no one can modify or read data in the cube in the production environment, even if he or she had installed the add in. Instead, we provide the Planning data forms as the only interface for end-users to read and write. we do this because the add in is very easy to install and users can read and write data in the cube at their will.
As we designed to keep the security filters simple, it is not a good idea to controll data access through security filters.
so, what i'm asking is how to disable excel addin on the server side?
Thank you for replying.
Edited by: user4592285 on 2012-10-18 上午6:48

Hi,
As Gurus suggested, you will have to restrict viewing of data through dimension level security.
Give access of members to users, only which are relevant to users so that they can't view other user's data/members.
Like give access of members belonging to HR dept only to HR users and give access of Finance dept related members to finance users only.
Hence HR users will view only HR relevant data and won't be able to view (read or write) finance related data and vice-sa-versa.
Hope this helps
Regards

How can I keep my iMac on the wireless network when it goes to sleep?

I have a new iMac (from Santa) and when it goes to sleep, so does its wifi connection. I use it for work and need to keep my instant messaging app open and running at all times, even when it's asleep. I also like to have all of my email waiting in the inbox when I come back to the desk.
Is there any setting (or workaround) I can do to keep it connected even when it goes to sleep? I have a MacBook Pro that keeps its connection when it goes to sleep so can't figure out what's happening. Thanks in advance!

going to sleep means disabling the network connection to save power
so what you're asking is not really possible
unless you can change what going to sleep mean on your computer
in the power saving settings you may be able to set going to sleep to just turn off your monitor
because thats pretty much the only thing that can go to sleep if you still wish to use it over wifi

Got a new computer. old computer fell unable to access any infrmation how do i safely get the music stored on my iphone back on itunes and how can i get my aps back that where erased when trying to syn my iphone to my new computer

This my second computer in the last two years. The first one fell and broke but I had only $20 worth of Itune stuff on the first one so I did not bother however this second computer I have tons of apps and music. I have lost all my apps while I was trying to backup my iphone with my new computer. I am wondering how can i get those apps back. How can I safely syn my iphone to my new computer without losing any more stuff.

It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer. Certainly after losing everything once, you started doing the basics and have a backup copy.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If for some reason you have failed to maintain a backup ( twice), then you can transfer itunes purchases from the iphone: Without syncing: File>Transfer Purchases
Make sure that you have your computer authorized to your itunes account.

How can I delete email on my Comcast server through Mail?

    I stumbled across a window in Mail yesterday where I could delete mail right off Comcast.net server through my Mac Mail.
Could someone help me find this again??
Thanks,
Lee

Hey Leroy,
     I saw that but I don't want to pull them off the server into my Mac. I want to leave them on the server but still be able to go in through Mac Mail and delete them from my Comcast server. This saves me having to go to Comcast.net and delete them.
    I used it yesterday...Accidentally stumbling across that function. This is my second day on a Mac so please be patient.
