How can I redownload IMAP mails in the Mail App?

I have a relatively slow internet connection over here in Malawi and it can cause problems with my Gmail IMAP account in the Mail App. Sometimes, emails will not download properly. It often happens with larger emails (where the email body itself is large, not necessarily because of attachments). I can get the message to redownload if I move it to another folder, but it's a hassle to do that every time. Is there any simple way to flag a message as needing to be downloaded again?
Thanks!

  • How can I transfer PDF books to the kindle app

    how can I transfer PDF books to the kindle app     

    There are many ways to import your PDFs into Papers for iPad. Obviously the preferred way is if you have a Mac and also use Papers for Mac**. The two apps can wirelessly sync their libraries. But also without a Mac there are plenty of ways. You can upload PDFs directly via iTunes, or you can import PDFs attached to an email from Mail on the iPad. Alternatively, use the Papers bookmarklet to open a webpage you found in Mobile Safari and download the PDF from there. Or you can use the built-in search engines to search for articles and download the PDFs.

  • How can I set up hotmail in the mail application

    Hi
    How can I set the mail application to include hotmail? I've been able to add it, but it doesn't sync read and unread messages. I know iPhones used to have the same problem, but after iOS5, there was an option to include mail from hotmail. Is there an option to include hotmail now in Mail, as I can't find it.
    Also, as I've just switched from Windows to Mac, is there a button on Mac for home and end like Windows has?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately hotmail requires you to pay a fee to have your e-mail go through a mail application, like Apple Mail. Contact their customer service to see about fees, as well as set up process.

  • 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 shuffle my podcasts in the podcast app?

    I'm using iOS 7.0 on my iPhone 4s (it'll be a 5s on Saturday if I'm lucky). I'm also being forced to use the newest "Podcasts" app. I subscribe to a lot of podcasts, and prefer to shuffle them, rather than listen to them in alphabetical order. How can I do this? I had it figured out when I could use iTunes, but now that I can't, I'm stumped. So far I hate the Podcasts app…

    This topic is discussed quite a bit at this forum.  Here's one example: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7014127

  • TS1702 How can I find out which is the correct app to read a PDF on my iPhone 5?

    I purchased a PDF reader from the app store, but I still cannot read the file. When I try to download the file, it states that I need an updated version of PDF. I notice there are several PDF apps available, but I don't know which is the correct one. How can I find out the correct application I need?

    Select the tune and then - Get Info - in the dialog box is a note of the Apple ID used to purchase.

  • How can I import Chat history into the Messages.app?

    Okay so this is what I've done so far: I've freshly reinstalled Mac OS X 10.8.1 on my Mac and I've already copied the Messages Folder located in User/Library/Application Support, to the new one.
    The idea is to access all this history data in the Messages.app, but so far I haven't been lucky.
    When I'm chatting with people, the recent activity will be shown in the left column of the app but nothing from the past shows up, yet.
    Is there some way to import all the chats into Messages, so that I can see them all in a nice way instead of quick-looking them in the Finder?

    Hi,
    The "sync" between and iPhone (or other iOS device) and a Mac only works from the time both devices have the same details.
    Effectively this is the time that the iPhone has the Apple ID added to it's settings and the pop ups that appear on the Mac about the iPhone's details are accepted.
    The Sync  is then "Display on all devices" only.
    There is no catch up on existing threads on either device on the other.
    If you delete an iMessages or a conversation on one device the other is unaffected.

  • HT1555 I've lost my Apple Remote. How can I connect my ipad with the remote app, as I can't obviously unpair the lost remote!?

    I lost my remote so downloaded the remote app onto my ipad, but unfortunately doesn't connect automatically. It says I have to disconnect the remote by accessing the Apple TV by the remote which I have lost.  HELP.

  • How can I download new software without the mac app store

    I have tried to obtain new software since lion came out and have not been able to do so because I do not have the mac app store on my mac book pro. There is no hard copy of the new software so I find myself pretty much stuck.  Is there anyway i can get around this?

    You need 10.6.8 or later to access the App Store. Start with:
    Snow Leopard General requirements
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    If you need Snow Leopard you can still purchase a copy from Apple's online store's telesales agents.[1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775.] Ask for a Sales Representative.
    Third-party sources for Snow Leopard are:
    Snow Leopard from Amazon.com
    Snow Leopard from eBay

  • How can i connect home sharing and the control app with 2 IP addresses?

    i am using my macbook pro at school and i also take it back home, and when i'm home the home sharing with my iPhone 5's Remote app works perfectly fine, just that when i'm back to res at school it doesn't work for some unknown reason. i've checked everything including the firewall and stuff and itunes home sharing is turned on, i even tried using another home sharing apple id but it still doesn't work. somebody please help!!!
    thanks!

    If you use eithernet for your main connection then just plug the TC bridged into the network.
    If you use wireless for your internet connection then you can use the TC isolated from the network by ethernet.. but this is really only convenient on a desktop Mac.
    The instructions I put in this thread with screenshots.. see near the bottom.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4817218?tstart=30
    It is a bit tricky so if you have questions ask back here.
    Just to say a USB for firewire external drive is faster and more reliable than a TC.. cheaper to buy as well.. although since you already have the TC that is not a concern.. but you can ebay the TC and buy a bigger and better external drive with the proceeds.

  • How can I delete specific convos in the messages app without it gliching?

    I have an iPhone 4S with absolutely everything up to date. Now I'm pretty much what you could call a texting hoarder.. I have text messages on my phone all the way up until the previous year sometimes. As of this very moment, I'm trying to delete certain convos whether their through iMessage or just regular texting, and every time I go to delete all the convos I wanted gone..I exit out of the app, I try opening it back up again and ALL my convos are gone. So I keep turning my phone off and back on, and then when I open up the app again, all the messages are still there. Like I never deleted them in the first place. I'm not sure what to do, I can't get rid of any of them!
    And advice is much appreciated!

    Is this on the Phone? Try the iPhone forum

    According to the terms of the iTunes Store that you agreed to when you signed up for an Apple ID, there are no refunds. All sales are final. That doesn't mean that you can try. Contact iTunes Store Support and see of they will oblige you. If they do oblige you, consider it a one time gift as they are not obligated to refund anything to you.
