How do I create new folders in mail on IPad and IPhone for saving emails?

You can't do it on the iPad you would need to do it on your computer and the folder will be seen by your account on the iPad and iPhone only if they are IMAP and Exchange accounts. POP accounts are not supported for folders.

How do you create new maps in Mail on iPad?

How do you create new maps in Mail on iPad?
In the iPad-manual they mention you can put messages in other mailboxes or maps (to free up the Inbox).
But they don't mention how to create such maps.
In the app itself I can't find a way to do it.
thanks for all replies

Maybe you are confused by the fact I used the word 'maps' instead of 'folders' (my natural Ianguage is Dutch).
For your question about the manual: on page 59 in the 'iPad 2 user guide' under 'organizing Email' they say you can move messages to a different mailbox or folder.

How do I create new folders in Mail on my iPad?

It is probably obvious, but I am missing it. I want to create folders in my email accounts on my iPad to store emails I wish to keep. Unfortunately, I have not been able to discover how.
Please advise. Thanks.

Hello,
On your Mac ...
If you are using Mac Mail at the bottom of the window under: Mailboxes
Click + then click: New Mailbox
Now connect your iPad to your Mac. Select iPad under Devices in the iTunes window. Under the Info tab select: Sync Mail Mail Accounts.
Deselect anything else you don't want to sync at the same time in that window.

How do you create new folders in Mail?

How are new folders created in the Mail application?

If you are on iOS 5 and it's an IMAP type account then at the top of the list of the folders that you've currently got in the account there should be an Edit button. If it's a POP account then you can't create additional folders

How do I create new folders to divide and save my mail into catergories?

Hi Tina
Two ways to do this:
1 in Mail, go the tool bar at the top of the screen, select Mailbox, then select New Mailbox in the menu.
2 in Mail, go the lefthand column, and at the bottom left you should see a plus sign and a cogwheel icon. Click on the plus sign and a new, untitled, mailbox will appear in the column above. Name this as you like.
You can "nest" mailboxes inside other mailboxes (eg inside a box I called "personal" I have individual mailboxes for each of my family and friends).
Then simply drag messages from your inbox to the appropriate mailbox in the lefthand column when you want to archive them.
Hope this helps!

Creating new folders in Mail

Greetings..
How does one create new folders under the inbox for organizing purposes? I was expecting to be able to create a "new folder" within any other folder, but all I can find is smart folders, and some other strange option which results in this new folder under the heading "On My Mac"...strange...what's this "On My Mac" all about? Why can't I just create a new folder under my inbox, and organize the way I see fit? This is really odd..

You can accomplish this by creating a new mailbox ( *plus sign* in the bottom left corner of the main window). I think this should say folder, but I didn't make this choice. It acts like a folder. Just click and drag emails from your inbox to these other mailboxes you created. The "On My Mac" just refers to where the emails get stored (/Users/yourshortname/Library/Mail)

Edit: the funny thing is the icon for the new mailboxes is a folder, go figure.

How do I make new folders in mail?

If you are in desperation for folders you could set up an imap account such as Gmail or Hotmail, create whatever folders you want, add the account to your iPad, send the emails you want to categorise to your new email address and manage them from within. You could also consider gradually making the new email address your future one thus eliminating the need to be always forwarding and thus creating duplicates in a sense. Might be a bit clumsy but it is a work around!

How do we create new folders?

Hi folks,
Just got a new Playbook and, contradicting all the bad press about it, it is actually very good. The question I have is: how do we create new folders? The only I can see are the "All", "Favorites", "Media" and "Games. Also, how do we sort by name the icons on the desktop? Thanks J. Rola

Hi download Air browser from the App World. IT let's you make new folders, save documents and organize things efficiently. I just came across it last week by accident. Good luck.

I want to sort all my bookmarks alphabetically but can't. You only let me drop a bookmark into an already-existing folder. And if that is the only way, how can I create new folders?

Trash the copy of the library you just moved. Then Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
But do you want to have two iPhoto Libraries? Why not just use the one on the External?

I hate the new Apple Map. The directions are confusing. How do I get google maps back on my iPad and iPhone?

I hate the New Apple Map. The directions are confusing and do not continue by pressing 'next.' How do I get Google Maps back to my iPad and iPhone? Thank you.

Start Safari
Enter the URL: http://maps.google.com/#bmb=1
tap "Go"
Now that you have Google Maps up on Safari, tap the bottom center icon (box with arrow pointing to the right).
Select "Add to Home Screen".
You will now have a Google Maps icon on your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch that will take you to Google maps.
There are other map services available. MapQuest, Waze, NavFree, OffMaps, etc...

How can I sync my pc contacts with my ipad and iphone?

How can I sync my pc contacts with my ipad and iphone?

Do you normally sync via iTunes and your computer? If so, there's an option in iTunes - that you see as you plug each device in - to sync contacts. If you don't normally sync via iTunes you can download and use the iCloud control panel and use that to sync your contacts.

Creating new folders in Mail on iPhone?

How can I create new mail folders on the Mail app on the iPhone?

Mailboxes stored locally on your hard drive are not included with the iTunes sync process. No mailboxes and messages are included with the iTunes sync process. The email accounts option under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences is for transferring email account settings from your computer to your iPhone only so you don't have to manually create the account with the iPhone's mail client.
With a POP account, the only mailboxes available will be the account's Inbox, Drafts, Sent, and Trash mailboxes. The account's Sent mailbox will not be created until you send a message with the account, and the account's Drafts mailbox will not be created until you save a message as a draft.
Accessing a POP account with the iPhone's mail client is no different from accessing the account with a different email client on your computer, or with an email client on another computer. All mailboxes stored locally on your computer's hard drive with the existing email client being used to access the account will not be available after creating the account with another email client on your computer, or with an email client on another computer. The same applies to the iPhone's mail client. There are no phones in the smart phone category that provide for accessing mailboxes stored locally on your computer's hard drive with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account, and I'm not aware of any phones in the smart phone category that provide for syncing locally stored mailboxes on your computer.
Although a POP account can be accessed with more than one email client, a POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only. You can't store sent messages on the server with a POP account, so messages sent with one email client used to access the account will not be available with another email client used to access the account and vice-versa.
An IMAP account is designed to be accessed with more than one email client with all server stored mailboxes for the account available with each email client used to access the account along with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server. Send a message with the iPhone's mail client with an IMAP account and the sent message will be available in the account's Sent mailbox with the email client used on your computer for accessing the account and vice-versa.
You can also create additional server stored mailboxes with the email client used on your computer for accessing an IMAP account to store received and sent messages by category, and the additional server stored mailboxes created with the email client used on your computer for accessing an IMAP account will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPhone's mail client, or with another email client used on a different computer for accessing the account, along with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
This is not possible with a POP account.
I access an IMAP account with the email client on my Mac, with the iPhone's mail client, and with Windows Mail on a PC running Vista that I use at work for estimating software that doesn't have a Mac version. All server stored mailboxes with the account are available with each email client that I use to access the account, along with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server automatically.
Have you ever used a Windows Mobile device to access your POP account? If so, were all mailboxes stored locally on your computer's hard drive with the email client used on your computer available with the Windows Mobile device? Sure you could probably create locally stored mailboxes or folders on a Windows Mobile device to store received and sent messages by category, but all your existing locally stored mailboxes or folders with the email client used on your computer would not be available with the Windows Mobile device with no way to transfer the mailboxes or folders from your computer to the device. Would you also want to throw a brick through Microsoft's corporate office windows because you aren't able to transfer and access all locally stored mailboxes or folders on your computer with your Windows Mobile Device? Probably not, but if the account can be accessed as an IMAP account, you would have access to all mailboxes and folders with the email client on the Windows Mobile device if all mailboxes and folders are stored on the server.

New Folder does not appear on menu--how do I create new folders?

I have a macbook pro with ox version 10.7.2, and Firefox 7. I cannot create new folders because the option does not appear on menus. Is something missing here?

Hey ems6,
You might need to copy the installer to the USB disk on another computer.
Hope that helps.

How to sync Outlook 2010 Contact Groups to my iPad and iPhone

I am trying to figure out how to sync my Outlook 2010 contact groups to my iPad and iPhone. Also how do you manage the groups once on the device? Seems they can only be selected and not edited. I can get my Good contact group and my Windows Contacts contact group to sync but not my Outlook 2010 groups. Any ideas?

Mac solution. No idea if works on PC:
Work Around:
On your mac:
1. Open a new email
2. Insert name of an existing group into one of the "To" fields as usual.
3. Highlight all the resulting names in the "To" entry
     [Highlight first name, and while holding shift, highlight last name and all will highlight[]
4. Copy (Command C) the highlighted emails
5. Paste (Command V) nto a pages document
6. Remove the name and anything else preceeding the first < and also the first < of only the first entry whixh will look like this:
     [email protected]>,
7. Remove the > of the last email which will look like this:
     , Jane Doe <[email protected]
8. Copy the entire altered list from the pages document
9, Go to Contact Book and click + to add a new entry
10.. Name the entry (XXX Group for iPad) or whatever you wish to call it
11. Paste all the copied altered list into any one of the email entry spaces
12. Click on "Done"
13. Create new email On iPad and click on + in any one of the "To" lines and search for "XXX Group for iPad" You cannot just key in XXX Group for iPad!!!!!!!, you must use + contact search.
14. Enter the selected iPad contact group into the "To" line.
15. All the entries will now appear in the "To" line and you are good to go.
Adding or deleting email addresses from the iPad group:
Easiest: Alter the original mac group in the usual way and repeat steps 1-14 above. It seems impossible to edit within the emai line of the iPad contact entry.
Rediculously simple once figured out.
Happy emailling, but please send Bcc so that you don't spread your groups' email addresses all over the internet for spam, viruses, and other unwanted emails. Be considerate and ask your recipients to notifiy you if they wish to be deleted from the lists you compose.
