Launch Mail.
Click "Mailbox" in the Mail menu bar.
Select "New Mailbox" from the dropdown.
Select "Location" and give a name in the dropdown sheet that appears.
Click OK.
Right click the message you want to copy or move to the new Mail folder.
When you move the mouse pointer over move or copy popup

How do I create sub folders for imported pictures in iPad albums?

I have imported some photos to my iPad for a presentation. The pictures were in different folder under the main folder. After I import the main folder the sub folders are deleted and now all the picture are in one folder. How can I keep the original main folder with sub folders when importing pictures in iPad photo?

Not within the Photos app, but there are other photo management apps in the App Store which allow you to create albums within albums e.g. Photo Manager Pro - that app lets you copy photos to/from the Photos app and copy photos via iTunes : Photo Manager Pro help pages.

How do you create sub-folders in Mail?

Hello, thanks for reading.
I have several domains and email accounts relating to different businesses and each account needs various associated archive folders for receipts, licences, customers, sales, newsletters, and so on...
With a sub-folder for each email kept for future reference on each account, this is a total of around 100 folders over 4 email accounts. Mail folders treat emails like songs in iTunes and that just doesn't work. The ideal solution is to have sub-folders within each mailbox.
If sub-folders aren't an option, can anyone suggest a way around this?! I might be able to slim it down to 20 folders but that would make finding an old email a little harder, especially if I don't know the email account it relates to or the sender.
I did all this easily on Outlook Express, which I think is available for Mac, right?

I've got tons of sub-folders in Mail.
I think the key is to understand that a mailbox is represented by a folder icon.
If you select a folder (mailbox), when you choose Mailbox/New Mailbox, the new folder appears inside the folder you highlighted. If not, you can drag it inside another folder as mentioned previously.

I have created sub-folders under one email address but can't find the sub-folders. Can you tell me where they are please.

The sub-folders aren't visible but when I created a second sub-folder with the same name, a box appeared advising me that a sub-folder of the same name had been created so could not be called that. Please let me know where I can find it.

Are you describing "mailboxes" in Apple's Mail app? That's odd, since this is the forum category for iPods.
The location of a new mailbox is determined by your Location selection when you created the new mailbox. In the panel that appears when you give command to create a new mailbox, there is a drop-down selection field for Location. Click that field. That is probably where you put your previous mailbox, so if the new one with the same name is duplicated at that location, that's the location you need to look.
If this question is about iPod (or iTunes), please post back with more details.

HT201320 Does my email service provider have to provide the ability for me to create an IMAP email account in order for me to create Sub-folders within Apple Mail?

Hi, Apple Mail provides a function to create sub-folders within my mailbox so that I can group emails of similar subjects or from the same sender. My service provider only provides POP email protocol and the New Folder button does not appear in my Apple Mail account for that service provider. Icloud provides the opportunity for the iPad user to select between POP and IMAP. I can select IMAP and the New Folder button appears allowing me to create sub-folders within the icloud email account. Does this mean I cannot create sub-folders in my email account unless my service provider provides customers with the option of creating an IMAP email account?
This appears to be a problem for quite a few Apple Mail users, but service providers appear reticent to provide a response other than 'use Microsoft Exchange / Hotmail, Google GMail, or some other third party email service provider'. This is why I have chosen icloud as my email service provider. It is Apple and therefore Apple supports it. I have been a Telstra customer for over 15 years and they informed me today, strongly, that they support their own products and services, not Apple products, even though Telstra sell them. When I asked the Telstra Customer Support Manager whether they support Telstra customers, I was informed 'no, because the Telstra customer is not a Telstra product or service'. I have since cancelled my Telstra email account and am in the process of cancelling all of my Telstra services.

Yes. That is what it means. You need an IMAP account in order to create sub folders on the iPad.

When importing photos it always creates sub folders. I do NOT want that.

How do I create sub-pages in iWeb?

Hi, How do I create sub-pages in iweb like it does in this website
http://www.e-alliance.ch/index.php?id=405
with all the main menus "about us", "advocacy capacity", etc?
Thank you for your help!!!
Boaz

To create sub pages, just ensure that the main menu item is in the main menu and then for the sub pages themselves, ensure that they are NOT in the main menu and you link back by creating links instead.
For example, you could use Staff as a main menu item, so Staff would be in the main menu and then descriptions of different staff members would be underneath, but not in the main menu - they would have separate links that you create and then hyperlink.
If you want to make drop down menus in iWeb, as in the site that you linked to, you can't do this directly in iWeb itself. You have to make it and then upload various css files to your web host and link to it in iWeb etc. It is quite a complex task to create drop down menus in iWeb. If you want to do that, then I would suggest that you use a different app instead - take a look at http://www.everwebapp.com.

How do I create new folders in my mail?

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!

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

How do I created multiple folders within folders in "Photo"

How do I created multiple folders within folders (subfolders) in "Photo". It happens in the first level when I use the Albums folder, but thereafter it doesn't allow me to create another folder within the folder. I can also not drag a folder into another, after the first level of folders. Please help.

Yes you can. Click once on the top folder and use the File ➙ Create Folder menu option. A new folder will be created inside the selected folder:

Creating Sub-folders

I have two email accounts, call them email A and email B. There are sub-folders for each for inbox, sent, drafts and trash.
I would like to create a saved folder for each of the two accounts; however, it seems that in can only be attached to "On My Mac". Is there no way to "attach" one to each of the two accounts?

That's what I thought. After a few months of Mail and now that Thunderbird has released v3.1 I'm back to TB.
Thanks

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?
