How do I copy all Email messages to another system and view them seperately from any messages on the new system?

We're giving my wife's old laptop to our children. We have already set up her E-mail accounts on the new laptop which is now 2-3 months old. While cleaning off the data from the old laptop, I have found hundreds of Emails that I want to save for future use. I just archived the old messages tonight. How do I copy them to an external drive so we can read them later without writing over all the new Emails on the new laptop?

  • How can I bookmark all my tabs in a bokmarkfolder without adding them one at a time in the newer versions of firefox?

    In older versions of firefox a had the ability to instantly add all my open tabs to a folder of bookmarks. I really liked this feature, it was very convenient when I was doing something and was interrupted and wanted to be able to get back to where I was at a later time.
    However I have not been able to find this feature in the newer versions of firefox.
    Where do i find it?
    I hope you have not removed it, because that would be a real shame.

    Some menu entries in the main menu bar are hidden if you use the mouse and only appear if you use the keyboard to open the menu (Bug 626825).<br />
    You can see the difference if you use Alt+F to open the File menu or other menus like the Edit menu (Alt+E) and Bookmarks menu (Alt+B) and compare that to what you see if you use the mouse to open the menu after you have made the menu bar visible by tapping Alt or by pressing F10.
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" (Shift+Ctrl+D) no longer shows in the Bookmarks menu unless you open the Bookmarks menu via the keyboard (Alt + B).
    * "Bookmark All Tabs" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of a tab on the tab bar.
    * "Bookmark This Page" can be accessed via the right-click context menu of that browser page.

    Why mine iphone 5c cannot normal receive message  and send message to another phone?   I also cannot receive any message form Digi Centre~  I am form malaysia~

    Sorry, forgot to add this and I can't find the edit button.
    -I am using build: 9A406
    -One funny thing I want to add too: when I put the iPhone in the Apple dock and connect it with my PC, I open iTunes and select my phone. There you can see the build, software version,.. But after telephonenumber it says N/A: not applicable.. Something I only just noticed. I'm pretty sure my number was displayed back in Nov. when I first got my iPhone 4S.
    And the very last thing: Most of the time I have a very good signal, 4 out of 5 bars. It is only rarely that I have only 1 or 0 bars.

  • How do i identify all RAW photos in my Mac and have them removed - taking too much space.

    I have a Macbook Air and I keep getting message that I'm out of space. i have emptied the trash but no difference. I believe it is the photos - I have impoted quite a bit of RAW photo files - how do i identify them and then delete them. I dont want to have 2 formats of the same photos.

    The process is simple - but tedious.
    Select the photos and export them, saving them as Jpegs.
    Trash the Library. Make a new one. Import the Jpegs.
    Alternatively: move the Library:
    Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're intent on trashing the Raws, you have a couple of bigger questions to consider: why are you shooting raw if you're going to trash them? Why are you using iPhoto, which is designed for a non-destructive workflow, if you want a destrucutve one?

  • How to move all my data to a server and wirelessly access it from any Mac

    Hi. I have a PB, an MBP, a Mac Mini and a new iMac, which all serve different purposes. I have got to the point at home where I want to have one private account with all my data on a HD and to just log in to it from whichever machine I happen to be using. I currently have an Airport Express as my wireless router and am considering buying and Airport Extreme/Time Capsule. I have about 500GB of data, which is growing pretty quickly since I have use of an HD camcorder, so I will buy one or two large drives in addition to the various external HDs I already (that total about 850GB) have. What is the best way (at relatively low cost) for me to set up my wireless home network in order to achieve the above goal?
    Thanks for your time.
    Matthew Whiting

    Don't go there. At least not for all your data.
    The relatively low throughput and high latency of the wireless connection (at least compared to direct-attached disks) will make accessing large files cumbersome and frustrating. Since you specifically mention HD video you should be aware that what takes a long time now will take a lot longer if the media is accessed over the wireless network.
    So while your goal might be technically feasible, it's unlikely to be workable.
    Instead you should consider focussing your centralized data on content that makes sense (e.g. maybe your iTunes library), and store data locally where it's more appropriate (e.g. consider one machine for video editing).
    Therefore you need to analyze your data - both in terms of content (what you have) and use (how you access it) to determine what makes sense to store centrally. Once you have that it will be easier to form a plan.

    Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

  • How do I copy all the email addresses in my Address Book quickly?

    How do I copy all the email addresses in my Address Book quickly so that I can email a change of address?

    From the Address Book help file:
    Notify contacts when your vCard changes
    When you change your contact information, you can send a group email message to your contacts. The message contains your updated vCard and a message from you.
    1. If you don’t have a group of addresses, create one.
    2. Choose File > Send Updates.
    3. In the Send Updates dialog, select one or more groups to notify. If some contacts in the group have multiple email addresses, you can choose which address to use.
    4. Type a subject title and a message, and then click Send.

  • How do I delete ALL emails on Droid Turbo (pop3)?

    I have a Droid Turbo, and love it. But I cannot figure out how to mass delete (all) emails from the phone. I use Pop3 to my email.
    I know you can swipe individual emails to delete or press and hold on an email to select, then do the same individually to many and then delete, but I cannot find a "delete all" option like my previous Droid Maxx. Because I haven't been able to keep up with it, I have over 999 emails sitting in there with no way at the moment to delete them all unless I spend a few hours deleting each one, one by one.
    Any help here?
    Thanks.

    That is extremely disappointing. If I delete the account from my phone, will it delete all the messages that way? I might have to find a way to delete and re-add the mail into the phone as the current amount of messages is a large bloat to the phone.
    Also, where do I suggest this "delete all" be added to the phone? This was on the Droid Maxx and previous versions. It is odd they would remove an option that could cause extreme bloat.

  • How Do I Sync All Email Accounts and Mailboxes (including those I create)?

    How do I Sync all email accounts in the OSX Mail Application and mailboxes(including those I have created), all using the .mac sync application . . . or is there a better way to sync information from my powerbook to my imac?
    The problem: I am reading and sorting/organizing my emails on my powerbook when traveling, and then I come home to my imac and end up having to manually duplicate the work I just completed. Any easy way of truly syncing the information between computers? Pleae let me know. Thanks
    What is meant by mailbox structures? For example: On my powerbook, I have 2 unread messages in one of my IMAP email accounts. I read both messages. I choose to move message A to a client mailbox that I created in the OSX Mail APPL and the other message B I leave as read in the inbox & respond with a sent email . Now I use the .mac sync app on the powerbook. Then I use the .mac sync app on my imac . . . . will the application not sync the same information/sorting/organizing/sent responces into the appropriate mailboxes? I'm so confused.
    Also, what "mailboxes behavior" & "advanced" preferences should be checked with IMAP email accounts. All sorts of misc. mailboxes keep being created in the OSX Mail APP. when choosing different preferences. When selecting store on server (mailboxes created indicate: stored locally on computer). Again very confused.

    The benefit of using an IMAP is keeping server stored messages synchronized when accessing the account with an email client such as the Mail.app on different Macs.
    Messages in the Inbox mailbox for an IMAP type account are stored on the server by default which cannot be turned off.
    With an IMAP type account, you can also store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages on the server which is available under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences.
    If you want to keep Sent messages synchronized with Mail on both Macs, you need to select "Store sent messages on the server" under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences in Mail on both Macs.
    I choose to move message A to a client mailbox that I created
    in the OSX Mail APPL and the other message B I leave as read in
    the inbox & respond with a sent email . Now I use the .mac
    sync app on the powerbook. Then I use the .mac sync app on
    my imac . . . . will the application not sync the same information
    /sorting/organizing/sent responces into the appropriate mailboxes?
    I'm so confused.
    Was this client mailbox created as an "On My Mac" location mailbox? If so, an "On My Mac" location mailbox is stored locally on the hard drive, not on the server so messages moved to such a mailbox will not be kept synchronized with Mail on both Macs. Transferring a message from the account's Inbox mailbox or from any server stored mailbox to an "On My Mac" location mailbox stores the transferred message locally on the hard drive and removes the message from the server at the same time.
    When creating a mailbox, the default location is "On My Mac" which is stored locally on the hard drive. If you are accessing an IMAP type account, you can select the IMAP account via the location selection which will create the mailbox on the server and be available in Mail on the other Mac. Messages placed in a server stored mailbox will be kept synchronized with Mail on both Macs.

  • Copy all email sent to a user.

    Lady that works for us has a stalker.
    Boss wants me to copy all email she sends and all email she receives to a different mailbox on the same message store.
    I don't really want to make channel filter and stick it on tcp_submit,tcp_local, tcp_intranet, tcp_auth.
    Is there a better way?

    How can I copy all the comments from my picture/s in fotostream to my picture/s in my library?

    Hi, first, you should prevent the iTunes library auto sync with iPhone: Launch iTunes > click Preferences... > click Devices. In the window, check the option 'Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically'. Next, connect your iPhone with your computer via the USB cable. Click the mini menu for iTunes on the very top left and click the option 'Show menu bar'. After then you can see iTunes File, Edit, View, Control, Store and Help menus on the ribbon. Click File > Devices > Transfer purchases from (your iPhone name). You can also access to the File menu by holding down Alt (Option on Mac), Shift and F keys. This is how to get your iPhone purcahsed song transferred to iTunes Library.
