How do I move an email from my inbox into one of my folders, on a Mac?

at one time I could click on "move" and select the name of the folder, but that option does not appear.

''re: I don't understand why one can't get this info when one goes to "help".''
Did you use 'Search Mozilla support' to see if someone else had asked the same or similar query?
I tried it and located one answer on the second page of results.
The Articles are gradually being created and tend to cover more complicated issues, but there isn't a specific Article written as yet on basic use of Thunderbird which would cover your specific query.
Hence why there is also the facility to ask the community for help.

  • HT1449 how do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    How do you move all music from two computers into one itunes account?

    An "iTunes account" is an online account you use for buying music, like a bank account.  An iTunes collection is the media you see when you open iTunes. Which do you mean?
    If it is two computers, it would also help to know where these are located. Are they on the same local network? If they are, try Home Sharing (and you have control of both and you aren't just trying to get music fro your computer to your friend's computer in another state).  If they are not, you'll have to use an external hard drive or flash drive.
    Is this on a PC? Your computer information says Windows but you posted this in the iTunes for Mac forum.

  • How do you mass archive emails in iclould mail?  I have 330,000 emails and what to move old emails from my inbox to a managed folder. Can anyone help?

    How do you mass archive emails in iclould mail?  I have 330,000 emails and what to move old emails from my inbox to a managed folder. Can anyone help?

    Winston - thank you for your reps but that is common sense... Icloud only displays 50 emails at a time. So your recommendation doesn't work if you have 330,000 emails in your inbox. I am looking for a way to do a mass move.. Like a filter or rule that runs in the inbox. Current rules can only work as emails arrive.
    Any other thoughts?

  • I can't move several emails from my inbox to trash.  I get the message, "Unable to Move."  This is only happening on older emails dated 9/29 and 9/30

    I have an iPad running on 8.1 software.  I have several email messages in my inbox dated 9/29 and 9/30 that I can't move to trash.  I get the message, "Unable to Move."  I'm not having this problem with newer messages.

I'm sorry

  • How to get the selection parameters from logical database into one of the t

    Hi Sap ABAP Champians,
    How to get the selection parameters from logical database into one of the tab in the tabstrip selection-screen.
    Please help me for this
    Thanks
    Basu

    Hi
    Thanks, that will work, but then I'll have to insert code into all my reports.
    I can see that "Application Server Control Console" is able to rerun a report.
    This must mean that the Report Server has access to the runtime parameters.
    But how?
    Cheers

  • I got a new computer and some of my music apparently wasn't backed up to the external hard drive.  I have some of the music that didn't save on an iphone. How do I move the music from the iPhone into my iTunes library on the computer?

    I got a new computer and somehow have lost some of my more recently purchased and or imported music.  I have some of that music on an iphone and some on an ipad.  How do I get the music from those devices into my itunes library without losing everything else?

    Some of the information below has subsequently appeared in a document by turingtest2: Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3991
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was planned with you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchases which can be transferred to a computer.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only purchases from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):
    - Expod (free) - http://www.headlightsoft.com/expod/ - Mac, universal for 104.+ (newer machines try de-Tune)

    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive - https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141 - dates from 2008 and some outdated information now.
    Copying Content from your iPod to your Computer - The Definitive Guide - http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/articles/comments/copying-music-from-ipod-to-co mputer/ - Information about use in disk mode pertains only to older model iPods.

  • How do I move multiple emails from Inbox to a specific folder?

    I have left a lot of emails in my Inbox that should have been moved to specific folders. How do I move them in bulk to their specific folders other than moving each one individually. I have highlighted the messages concerned by searching and then selecting all. I then click on move to....
    Nothing seems to be happening....I'm sure there's probably a step I'm missing here. What would it be??
    A similar problem occurs when I want to do a mass delete of emails from a specific sender....

    I did all that and nothing happened. As it happens, I did manage to deal with the problem, but in a rather convoluted and tedious manner. I went into Edit, Find, and Search messages, typed in the criteria and the messages I wanted moved came up. However, there was no option to "Select All" so I had to highlight each one and then move the lot to the specific folder....that also worked for the delete problem. That is a workable solution to my problem, but the lack of a "select all" option made it very time consuming. However, I guess it's a notice to me to remember to sort my emails more often.
    Thanks for replying....

  • How do I move Outlook email from Windows to iMac

    I have decided to move from Windows (Vista) to iMac (Mavericks) and need to move all my email from my Windows PC (Outlook 2010) to iMail. 
    I've found several suggestions on the internet including various software applications for converting from one to the other although most seem to indicate problems with lost emails.  Is there a recommended method from Apple which works?
    Any help appreciated.

  • How can i mass delete emails from my inbox?

    Are there any tricks to deleting all of the messages from my inbox at once, without having to tap each message??
    Thanks.

    Go to the gear icon on the upper right; Click on "Rules". Make a rule that says, "If an email is from.... " and put in what emails you want deleted. I had a lot of emails that got forwarded mistakenly from another account--like 4,000! And I used this rule to move them all to Trash. The rule can be anything... All emails from "gmail", etc...
    Hope this works for you!

  • How do you drag and drop/move multiple emails from the inbox or mail archive folder to a file folder in your finder?

    I would like to archive hundreds of my emails that currently exist in my apple mail email filing system by moving them into file folders in the finder. I can do this easily with a single email but it wont let me do it with multiple emails or a complete folder. Is there any way of do this easily?

    Thanks very much for this. However, I understand how dragging and dropping files normally works. It just seems the it wont work when you do it with emails when you are transfering them into a normal finder system folder. If you highlight one file and drag it to a finder folder it works, but when you drag multiple, it just wont let you do it.
    Is there any work around for this? Thank you once again for  your time.

  • How do you move POP3 email from the iPhone back to the server or computer?

    Is there any way to get email that was downloaded to the iPhone using POP3 back on the server or computer? (other than resending all the mail)

    You're welcome.
    Although it is possible to access a POP account with more than one email client, a POP account is really designed to be accessed with a single email client only.
    I access a MobileMe account and a business POP account with the iPhone's mail client. Since an IMAP account is designed to be accessed with more than one email client keeping all server stored mailboxes synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account, accessing an IMAP account with the iPhone's mail client is much more preferable to me. All sent messages are available with each email email client used to access the account. Read a received message with the iPhone's mail client and the message will be marked as read automatically when checking the account with the email client on my computer and vice-versa. I create additional server stored mailboxes to store received and sent messages by category and I can transfer messages from the account's Inbox or Sent mailbox to the designated server stored mailbox with the iPhone's mail client, with all server stored mailboxes kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.
    If messages were removed from the server with the email client used on your computer to access the account - transferred to a mailbox stored locally on your hard drive, you can transfer the messages back to the designated server stored mailbox.
    Need to delete and recreate the account with your iPhone's mail client, or need to restore your iPhone with iTunes, all messages that don't remain on the server will be lost with a POP account including all messages sent with the account from the iPhone - which can be stored locally on the iPhone only unless you always Bcc yourself with every sent message.
    Delete and recreate an IMAP account with the iPhone's mail client and all server stored mailboxes and the messages within will be available again automatically.
    IMAP account access is the way to go with the iPhone IMO.

  • How do I move all clips from an event into the edit line...

    If I have an event of tons of clips that comprise an hour of footage, how can I select all of those clips at once from the event library and transfer them to the edit line above?
    There is no Select All feature, that I can see, and it takes forever to highlight each chunk of clips, one at a time, and drag them up.
    I'd like to drag the whole 1 hour's worth of clips in one event in my library up to the edit line at once.
    Thanks!

    Hi Rich,
    I am trying to somehow "select all" clips, (not just all shots within a clip), but all 100 or so slips from an entire tape, from the first clip, to the last clip, and everything in between, and move them all up to the edit pane at once.
    As it is now, I have to click on a thumbnail, select the entire clip, and move one clip at a time up to the edit pane.
    I want to move all the clips up at once.

  • How do I get old emails from Time Machine into a new Mail?

    I have (I hope) email data in Time machine as of April 8  which I can't figure out how to get into my newly reinstalled version of Mail. 
    I took over my brother-in-law's iMac on April 8, and closed his User ID, saving it in a .dmg file.  Now that he has a new computer, he would like his old emails, so I reactivated his user ID, and reinstalled his email accounts in Mail as of May 27.  When I look at the Time Machine Backups drive, there is a data folder for April 8, but when I open my newly re-installed Mail and click on Time Machine it only goes back to May 27.
    Is there a way to get at the April 8 data?
    Thanks,
    jrguest1

    I set up an admin account for myself, logged on to it, and then followed the procedure in the help file to delete his account, saving it as a .dmg file.  Then, when he asked for his old emails, I followed the procedure in the help file to restore a deleted user account and copied the contents of the .dmg into it.
    I'm not entirely confident I got the restoration sequence right, since I find the order of steps in the help file confusing. But everything except the Mail data seems to be recovered.
    Another source of trouble may be the email account settings:  when I opened Mail under his log-on, there were no accounts set up: I recreated them using his email address and password, but Mail may well be treating these as new accounts, rather than re-opened old accounts.
    Thanks, John

    Add the song to iTunes on your PC and sync it to your iPhone. It will appear in the Music.app. And you can access it in GarageBand from the Loop Browser and add it to a track as a loop.
