How do I flag and DELETE all messages in my IN basket -- Seems that if I delete them one by one they still indicate being there even if there are NO messages

When I retrieve mail and delete the message I still see the message count even if all of the messages are gone

I had tried that and it appeared to select nothing, so I got thrown off. But yes, I should have tried the delete button at that point. Then delete the swatch, then copy it all and paste it into a new file. The paste-in is my primitive way of confirming what's actually there. I'm sure there are more elegant ways.
Thanks, guys.

  • I want to delete my duplicate songs, but I have thousands of songs and cannot realistically go through and review and delete them one at a time.  Can I do it all at once?

    Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
    Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created.  If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
    Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • I duplicated all the pictures in my library. Is there any way to delete the duplicates at one time without going and deleting them one by one

    I duplicated all my pictures. Is there any way to delete the duplicates without deleting them one at a time. I now have 44,000 pictures and have 22,000 duplicates

    Easiest solution: restore from your back up.
    Other than that: For dealing with duplicates in iPhoto check out Duplicate Annihilator or Decloner

  • Why do I have so many flagged messages and how do I unflagging and delete them

    My mail app lists over 60k flagged messages, but when I click flagged messages, the list is empty. When I check for memory usage, mail comes up as 11 gb, even after a delete all the messages I can see. How do I delete/unflag messages, and how do they get flagged in the first place?

    There are two possible fixes in this discussion. Delete and add the account back on, or go to the InBox, Tap Edit, and Flag all emails and then unflag them all.

  • How do I save and display all messages in non primary email address

    I have 2 email accounts on Thunderbird. The emails to the secondary account are not saved. I can open and read new messages but if I want to view them later, they are gone. My primary email retains all messages. Can I configure Thunderbird so I can retain all messages on more than one email account? If so, How?

    There are several possible reasons that messages seem to 'disappear'.
    There are two types of email accounts: IMAP and POP. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/glossary-terms-including-types-accounts
    If you have a POP account and are accessing the mail on more than one computer or smartphone, whichever device reads (downloads) the message first will have it locally, but it will no longer be listed or available on the other devices.
    If you have an IMAP account, the message stays on the server, but if one device (user) moves or deletes the message, it will affect the view on all devices. So, for example, if you are using your smartphone and take some action on an email, when you get back to your computer, it will reflect that same action (but you might not have realized what caused it).
    Another, less likely, reason for messages not to show up in your inbox is having the preference set to show only unread or recent messages. Then once you read them they seem to disappear.
    If you are still having problems, please look at the following items and respond with the information.
    1) What operating system do you use (Win8, MAC, Linux, etc)?
    2) Are you using IMAP or POP?
    3) If your mail server has a browser interface (web mail access such as mail.google.com), do the messages show up there?
    4) Right click on the folder in question and select Properties.
    a) Number of messages?
    b) Size on disk?
    5) Left click on the account name; View settings for this account; highlight Server settings;
    What choices are marked under "When I delete a message"?
    6) What, if any, antivirus program do you have installed?

  • How to: recognize elements and delete them in batch?

    Good day everyone,
    I use AR XI Pro. I want to remove a certain element from a PDF Document/PDF Image file. Since it is not a watermark and I do not know what it is (but it is very annoying), I need AR first to recognize it. Is there such function in AR?
    Then I want to batch remove it (I have like 300 pages of those), if it is possible at all. I attach the sample page
    Thanks for help.

    Is there a way to program Acrobat for this specific task, may be?
    Also, Re" It looks as if the stamp identifies the supplier of the file. They say they have no resellers, so if you got it elsewhere it is unauthorized copy. " Who are "they"?
    It is the stamp of the supplier, but I bought it. And, I do have the rights. Certainly I do not want to distribute the file, but for my personal use, I want to be able to view it normally. They won't tell me what it is they put onto it and it bothers me.
    Perhaps there is a place/someone I could send the file to - to check what it is and whether it is possible to do something about it. I would be happy to pay a small fee.

  • How do i organize songs in the order i want? it seems that i cant drag them where i prefer

    I am trying to organize songs in a specific order on my ipod.  how do i drag them where i want? I have set up a playlist but cannot seem to manupulate the songs around.

    In the list view, you can click on any column to sort by that column.  For a custom sort, click the column left of the name column with the track numbers as shown.  This allows you to drag the songs into any order you want.

  • How do I find and delete phantom email messages?

    The icon says I have five new messages (up from one a few weeks ago), but I can't find them in any of the folders (I have looked on both phone and computer). I have also changed my settings to erase deleted messages in 24 hours, but the phantom messages still seem to exist. How do I find and delete them.

    Under the file tab in iTunes, select Display Duplicates. From there you can delete them as well.

  • My question is how can i find and redownload all my older apps ?

    HI,
    I have an Iphone 4, and bought mostly all of my Apps from my Iphone.
    I needed a certain App called Viber and tried to download it.
    I didn't work and it told me to download it from my computer (Macbook pro) Itunes,
    which i did, then i synched (my error) my iphone to my mac, then it erased all my apps from my iphone.
    My question is how can i find and redownload all my older apps ?
    Do i have to go find them manually and download them again?

    I'm guessing on the computer you connected to you were not logged into our account in iTunes and/or you never transferred your apps from your iPhone to your computer.
    Yes, you will need to download all of them again manually.

  • Inside mail, how do you find and delete old useless messages

    inside mail, how do you find and delete old useless messages, there are thousands of them.

    go thru all your mail boxes, and delete, all your synced boxes, highlight the stuff you want to trash, click delete.
    Go thru all the boxes and do the delete, then go to your server trash, and delete.
    You canthen go to on my mac and do the same thing.
    This is way different than 10.6.8, and I'm sure there is a much better way to do this, but at least it will get rid of some junk.
    Sorry this all I can offer.
    I'm sure someone who has been working with OS can offer a much better path.

  • Is there any way to select all mail messages and delete them?

    I get lots of mail, and most of it I don't keep, or keep over on my MacBook. Is there a way to select all the Mail messages and delete them, or do I need to go through them one at a time?
    many thanks!

    In your inbox in the phone you can mark the mails one by one and then tab delete.
    In Trash you can delete all with one tab.

  • How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    How do I delete duplicate songs in my iTunes? I have hundreds and I don't want to delete them one by one. They were all added on the same date, so sorting by the date won't help.

    Hi, if this is in regards to your library simply open up itunes and do the following steps:
    Click File
    Scroll down to "show duplicates"
    A list will then appear of your duplicate song titles.
    Be sure to CAREFULLY review each song to make sure it is a duplicate ( as I have some music that is the same song but live, acoustic etc...)
    Proceed to manually delete each song from the list and leave alone any song that you wish to keep.
    Best of luck,

  • How can I transfer all my photos on iPhone to iCloud for archive and delete them off my phone?

    I do not want to simply backup my phone with iCloud.  My iPhone's memory is full and I would like to transfer all my 10,000+ photos to iCloud for safe keeping, and delete them off my phone.  Could I do that?  I know that iCloud is typically used for backing up the phone and works like a 'mirror' to the phone, but I want to use it more as an archive drive.  Please advise!

    The only iCloud feature that meets this requirement is the iCloud Photo Library (Beta). I don't think that I would trust all my photos to a Beta-level product.
    You could create a Dropbox Account and move the photos to it or move the photos to your computer.
