How can I set Mail to show only one email at a time

Mail will group emails based on subject or sender and then I keep losing or missing emails because they get buried in a thread. Sometimes under another persons name!
I'm old and easily confused.
I just want one email per line. No grouping. Can't seem to figure out how.
Thanks!

Hi Keefer-in-space!
You may need to try turning off the “Include related messages” setting in the preferences of your Mail program:

  • IMail: How can I set mail preferences to display actual email address and not short names.

    Even though I have it correctly set in Preferences , i.e. "Use Smart Addresses" is unchecked, the addressee automatically changes to the person's name rather than the email address.   I am unable to find a way to display the actual email address option on iMail (Yosemite)  I do not want nicknames/short names but want the actual email address to display on my address line.   Can anyone advise please?

    Thanks, Ernie
    I wasted about 20 minutes looking for it and couldn't find it

Thanks!

    Hi webn,
    I understand that you do not wish to see phone calls on your iPad anymore. I have an article for you with some information on accomplishing this goal:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT6337
    Turn off iPhone cellular calls
    To turn off iPhone cellular calls on your iPad or iPod touch, go to Settings > FaceTime and turn off iPhone Cellular Calls.
    On your Mac, open the FaceTime app and go to FaceTime > Preferences. Click Settings and deselect the iPhone Cellular Calls option.

  • I just purchased a Thunderbolt Display for use with Photoshop work.  How can I set up to show/work in separate programs on each screen?

    I just purchased a Thunderbolt Display as an additional screen for Photoshop work.  Following set up instructions appears to allow only mirroring of the screens.  How can I set up to show/work in separate programs on each screen? 

    Yes, each blue rectangle is a screen. You can create different geometries, to suit your needs. For example, you can even make this kind of thing... :
    Or this:
    I don't know why you would want to do that, but you can!

  • When I open up iphoto and click on the events tab then double click on an event, it used to show minis of all the photos in that event.  Now it shows only one photo at a time.  How do I get it back? Can you help?

    On the bottom bar of the window (on the left iPhoto 11, on the right in other versions) note the slider. Drag it left.

  • How can I set my Mac to only share SPECIFIC folders with Win7

    It used to work, but, even though I have set only my Public folder and a specific photographs folder to share with a Win7 PC on my home network, the Win7 machine can see the entire Mac HD.
    I followed instructions from here:
    http://www.trickyways.com/2011/07/file-sharing-mac-os-x-lion-and-pc-windows-7/
    But if I type Run then enter the ip address of the Mac, all the folders appear. Is there a way to limit them to only the two specific folders?
    I've mapped the single folder to a drive, so admittedly, unless you go into "Run", you can't see the other Mac folders and drives, but I'd still like to make sure it can't be done.
    Thanks

    I have various formatting issues:

    In transaction KS03 (Display cost Center), when I search for a cost center (hit F4), I have an option to drill down by Company code, controlling area, Cost Center Category, Person Responsible etc.
    My question is, how can I restrict users to select only controlling area they are authorized for ? Is there any authorization object I can use to restrict user's access to particular value in the table CSKS ?
