How do I create a SENT On My Mac mailbox?

I've just migrated our Macs from Microsoft Outlook for Mac to Apple Mail, iCal and Address Book and activate iCloud.
I don't know how I did it, but under my MAILBOXES in the "Sent" mailbox there are two sub-mailboxes: "iCloud" and "On My Mac"
Both these sub-mailboxes have the little paper airplane icon next to them.
I've spent 3 days trying to create the same subfolder on my wife's Mac with no success.
The action "Use my mailbox fo:r" under the Mailbox tab is grayed out.
Any ideas?

tab and hold until a icon begin to wiggle
then move it on top of another icon and you got a folder

  • In e-mail, how do you create a Save to My Mac mailbox? The instructions aren't complete.

    In order to save space in iCloud, the instructions recommend moving messages from iCloud to your Mac. They specifically state:
    "In Mail, choose Mailbox > New Mailbox, choose On My Mac from the pop-up menu, then enter a name for the mailbox.
    You don’t have to create a new mailbox if the On My Mac section of the sidebar already has a mailbox that you want to move iCloud email messages to."
    The problem is that I can't find the "Mailbox" button or folder or drop down (or whatever it is). It doesn't say WHERE in Mail to find it.
    Any suggestions?

    I think I have been interpreting the instructions incorrectly. I was going into iCloud Mail, NOT the Mail app. I didn't realize they were connected, and that iCloud mail messages could be saved to the regular Mail app, which I already know how to use.
    Thanks for the response. I think I've got it now.

    How do I create avery labels 5160 on mac

    I assume you mean to ask how to print in a format that will match Avery 5160 lables. You can do it with Tables or Text boxes. That's all there is to say without knowing what your content is and how it might change from label to label.

    how can I create a website easily using Mac products?

    By using iWeb if you have it and if you don't have iWeb, there are lots of other Mac compatible products that you can use instead such as RapidWeaver, Sandvox, Freeway Pro/Express 6, WebAcappella 4, Flux 4 and Quick n' Easy Website Builder.
    Just do a search of this forum and you will see literally hundreds of post on this topic.

  • How can I create additional "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5

    How can I create additional or sub "Sent Mail" folders so that I can organize my sent mail along the same lines as the inbox? I use Mail v 4.5.

    Thank you for your reply Don, but I had already gone through that procedure and it will only create new mailboxes for received mail. I want to create new mailboxes for sent mail, i.e. the first column being "to" not "from". Under the Mailbox menus there is an option "Use This Mailbox For" but all the options under that (including Sent) are greyed out. Unfortunately the View/Columns option to change from "From" to "To" changes all mailboxes not just the active one.

  • How Do I Create a Screen Saver for Mac

    I need to create a screensaver for my mac OS 10.38. Can I use .SWF files to do this or a GIF? I tried dropping a .SWF movie into screensaver in Preferences but it didn't seem to work.
    How can I animate a logo as a screen saver?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
    There are a few tools you can use. This page lists a couple. It looks like you can download a trial version and see if it'll do what you want. If not there's another one on that page.
    If you're handy with programming, you can also create your own with Xcode. There's an article here that talks about it, though it's a bit old, and might be somewhat out of date.
    But just dropping SWF files probably isn't going to work. A screen saver is a special kind of program...

  • How do I create a multi-session in Mac OS 10.9.2 that can be 'appended' on a Windows machine?

    I need to be able to burn a CD with some files but leave the CD open so that someone else can add some files.  Although googling helped provide me some info on how to go about this once I need to burn the CD, but I am not sure that this CD will be able to be appended by someone using a Windows PC.  This is going to be a necessity.  Does anyone know about this or has had any luck doing this?
    Thanks in Advance

    I don't have a plain CD, but I tried a CD-RW and the ability to leave it appendable was not available. I'm not sure if that is related to CD-RW or if the feature was dropped in Mavericks.
    Check the More Like This links on the right.
    The process previously was to create an image of the folder that held the things you wanted to burn. Then, in Disk Utility, burn the image to disk and check the box to leave it appendable. This was only available for CDs, not DVDs.
    You might try some other burning software.

  • How do i create a local account in mac mail?

    I have lost the account "On My Mac" How do I get it back or create a new local account

    Thank you for your answer but unfortunately I did not ask the question or state the problem correctly. I am able create a new mailbox on my mac but I would like to get this to show up in My Contacts as a Local Account.
    Maybe I should ask th question another way by stating that I wish to create a group of contacts locally on my mac from the contacts that are on iCloud. Is this possible?

  • How can i create dvds on my new mac book pro

    I just purchased a new mac book pro retina and cant create dvds?

    Apple decision to remove iDVD will deter me from recommending Mac to fellow Windows users.
    Many other Mac users feel the same way.
    Leave feedback here:

    Now that my newly bought Mac does not provided a avenue for me to burnt DVDs, I am
    really disappointed.
    If you are still within your 15 day return period.  Call Apple they will sent out iDVD at no charge.  (There are no realistic substitutes.)
    Nicely explain that you may return the computer without iDVD. That usually does the trick.  You MUST speak to a senior advisor to get a free copy. The first tier people cannot do it.

    If that doesn't work you can purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

  • How do I set up subfolders in a mac mailbox (mail 4.6)

    Hello Forum,
    I have set up a work account in mail 4.6.  It's already starting to get out of hand.  How do I set up sub folders to this account?  It's a POP account.
    I also have a Gmail account and to set up subfolders there I access Gmail online and they just come through to mailbox.
    Thanks

    You can influence when messages are deleted from the server in Preferences > Accounts > Advanced. If you are reading the mail on more than one device, typically you would set this on all devices to something like "delete one week after retrieving the message" so that each device has a chance to get the message before it is deleted. POP servers are not intended for long-term storage, and there might be space or time limitations imposed by the service provider.
