How do I get the phone to keep my old mail - it keeps deleting.

Hello
I never seem to have mroe than 30 or 40 emails in my inBox. It's like the older ones are deleted without my knowledge.
How do I keep my mail in the folder indefinitely? Like - forever if I want?
Thanks,

Steve, I'm afraid if you want to compare iPhone's email facility to a Blackberry, whichever way you look at it, you're going to be disappointed. I love my iPhone for most of what it does, but having moved from a Blackberry to it, the one area that this phone lacks in is its email client.
Like you, I had over a year's worth of emails stored nicely on the Blackberry. I could search them easily and it was quick. The iPhone renders emails and HTML beautifully. However, it will not show more than 200 emails. I get over 100 emails a day. I can look at no more than 2 or 3 days back if trying to search without deleting. You can't even 'search by sender'. Sure, if you go ahead and start deleting newer ones, the previous ones will appear. What use is that when you want to go search for something?
Like I say, I love my iPhone. I'm pretty close though to dusting down the Blackberry too for work/email.

    How can I get the phone numbers in contacts to appear with dashes between the first 3 numbers, the next 3 numbers, and the last 4 numbers?  Until very recently
    it did so.  Contacts on my macbook pro does show up this way.  I do have a mobile me account and in the past syncing was no problem.  What setting has changed?

    The phone number format as well as the date language and format and the time format are controlled by the Region Format setting. Go to Settings > General >International > Region Format.  When you change a region format, you can go back one page (to International) and see an example of the date/time/phone number format that your selected region format will produce.

  • HT5661 i bought a second hand phone and now can not hold of the seller,  how can i get the phone activated in my name now?

    Hi all,  I have bought a second hand iphone 5s and have found it is still activated to the last user... i can't get hold of them anymore,  how can i get the phone activated in my name?

    If iOs 7 is installed on that iPhone, you will not be able to activate it without
    the requested information. It is called Activation Lock and is a security
    feature built into iOS 7. There is no workaround.

  • Deleted "On My Mac" calendars trying to share to iPad. Have a good copy still on iPhone4s. How do I get the phone calendars back on my Mac?

    Accidently deleted "On My Mac" calendars trying to share to a new iPad. I still have a a full set of calendars on my iPhone4s. How do I get the phone calendars back onto my Mac?
    Not knowing how to move theiPhone calendars I tried this.....
    I have tried importing a .icbu file of each calendar exported just before the deletion.  Every time I import a backup, it restores fine initially with all my old events, but as soon as it syncs with iCloud it empties all the events prior to my deletion of the "On My Mac" set of caledars.

    I had walked away from the computer and found another mouse hanging out on my wife's computer, I was able to plug it in and got the blue tooth set back up. Thanks for your responding to this.

  • How can I get the phone to recognize mini SD Card?

    I have a 32G Sandisk SD Card in the G4 mini but one day the phone said the card was blank and unsupported.  I purchased another SD Card and installed it however the phone does not recognize that I have an SD card.  When I try and save music or pics to the card the phone says I have removed the storage.  How can I get the phone to recognize the card storage?

    First of all do you Mount or Unmount the card from the settings menu before pulling the card out of its slot? Make sure that the option Mount is greyed out in you settings menu when the card is in the phone. If not select it.  If you pull the card out of the phone select Unmount first.  You can also try formatting the card from the same settings menu.  If these two things do not work, then either the card is defective or the card hardware slot is defective.

  • HT4528 My Iphone 4s is plugged in charging after it has fully died. Instead of the apple appearing and staying constant on the screen...the apple is blinking. What does this mean and how do I get the phone to charge/turn back on.

    My Iphone 4s is plugged in charging after it has fully died. Instead of the apple appearing and staying constant on the screen...the apple is blinking. What does this mean and how do I get the phone to charge/turn back on.

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Next try letting the battery fully drain. After charging for a least an hour try again
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store, it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I recently stopped a download of most recent OIS.. Phone is now displaying the charging cord and itunes icon.  how do i get the phone to work again.

    I recently stopped a download of the most current IOS-  I powered off the phone.  It now displays a charging cord with an arrow to an itunes icon.  How do I get the phone to work again.  Not near a computer with my itunes account and do not wish to continue the download.

    You will have to try a recovery mode restore, for what you need a computer with the latest version of iTunes.

    If you bought it used, many if not most of them are "jailbroken" and cannot be fixed. That's why they are sold. Unsuspecting buyers are generally out of luck.
    Unauthorized modification of iOS can cause security vulnerabilities, instability, shortened battery life, and other issues
    Inability to apply future software updates: Some unauthorized modifications have caused damage to iOS that is not repairable. This can result in the hacked iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch becoming permanently inoperable when a future Apple-supplied iOS update is installed.
    ... It is also important to note that unauthorized modification of iOS is a violation of the iOS end-user software license agreement and because of this, Apple may deny service for an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that has installed any unauthorized software.

    Hi,
    Depending on what attributes you want.
    Import-Module ActiveDirectory
    #From a txt file
    $USERS = Get-Content C:\Temp\USER-LIST.txt
    $USERS|Foreach{Get-ADUser $_ -Properties * |Select SAMAccountName, mail, XXXXX}|Export-CSV -Path C:\Temp\USERS-ATTRIBUTES.csv
    #or from a csv file
    $USERS = Import-CSV C:\Temp\USER-LIST.csv
    $USERS|Foreach{Get-ADUser $_.SAMAccountName -Properties * |Select SAMAccountName, mail, XXXXX}|Export-CSV -Path C:\Temp\USERS-ATTRIBUTES.csv
    Regards,
    Dear
    Gautam Ji<abbr class="affil"></abbr>
    Thanks for replying I tried both but it did not work for me instead this command which i extended generated nice results
    Get-ADUser -Filter * -Property * | Select-Object Name,Created,createTimeStamp,DistinguishedName,DisplayName,
    EmployeeID,EmployeeNumber,Enabled,HomeDirectory,LastBadPasswordAttempt,LastLogonDate,LogonWorkstations,City,Manager,MemberOf,MobilePhone,PasswordLastSet,BadLogonCount,pwdLastSet,SamAccountName,UserPrincipalName,whenCreated,whenChanged
    | Export-CSV Allusers.csv -NoTypeInformation -Encoding UTF8
    only one problem is that Manager column is generating this outcome rather showing exact name of the line Manager .
    CN=Mr XYZ ,OU=Users,OU=IT,OU=Departments,OU=Company ,DC=organization,DC=com,DC=tk

  • How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    How can i get the itunes off of my old iphone if the files on my computer have been erased?

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

    how can i get the info off of an old appleworks database. to my new mountain lion. OS X? My old data base is on AppleWorks 6

    1.  Read Roger Wilmut's excellent series of articles Abandoning Appleworks, especially the one on databases.
    2.  Call the Apple Store and order Snow Leopard Server for $19.99 + sales tax & shipping: 1.800.MYAPPLE (1.800.692.7753) - Apple Part Number: MC588Z/A (telephone orders only).
    3.  Install Snow Leopard Server into Parallels 8, now available for a short time (4 more days) in the March 2013 MacUpdate 10 App Bundle for $49.99:
    4. Install Appleworks 6.2.9 into Snow Leopard Server and it will now run concurrently with Mt. Lion:

  • I'm getting "Unknown Error 6" when trying to upgrade my iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.  The phone is then stuck on the red iTunes logo + USB screen.  How can I get the phone working again?

    I've tried upgrading my iPhone 4S using iTunes 12.01.26 on 4 different computers at home and at the office:
    Macbook Air - OS X version 10.7.5
    Macbook Pro - OS X Yosemite
    2 PCs running Windows 7 Professional
    iTunes downloaded the installer and the installation process seemed to get 90% complete before showing the error, "The iPhone, "iPhone" could not be updated. An unknown error occurred (6)."
    The phone is now stuck on the red iTunes logo screen:
    How can I get it out of this mode?
    I've tried holding the power button and home buttons down for ten seconds, then letting go of the power button, but keeping the home button down for another 10 seconds.  I've also tried Reiboot, Wondershare Dr. Fone in desperation to try to get the phone out of this mode.  Nothing seems to fix it.
    If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

    i do that but it keeps getting stuck on the 'preparing to restore i phone' screen for a few mins before coming up with 'unknown error 1603'.
    Just doublechecking. Have you worked through the 1603-specific instructions from the following document?
