How do I only sync the last 18 months of emails to my mac mail on the macbook?

How do I only sync the last 18 months of emails to my mac mail on the macbook? It is currently retrieving all emails from the four accounts I am syncing to and filling up space on my macbook.  I can't work out how to set a limit.
Any help appreciated!

Imap is designed to synchronize your mail client with the mail server, this the normal result.
Switch to POP access if you want it to work asynchronously

  • I have the 1st generation iPad the last month or so it has started crashing all the time.

    I have the 1st gen iPad. For the last month or so it keeps shutting down. What can I do ?

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps...  Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    Also, try Deleting any Apps you have Purchased / Downloaded but you now never use...
    If no joy...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Restore “...

  • I lost all my contacts twice in the last month. I'd like to know what the reason can be.

    I did nothing different, just opened the contactxl app to make a phone call and all my contacts were missing. This happened to me twice in the last month. I have all my contacts in google contacts so that i just needed to sync my iphone and recovered them all but i feel quite unsure now. As I don't know the reason, i don't know if it's going to happen tomorrow again in a place where I'm not able to find a pc to sync my iphone.
    I'm not a mobileMe user.
    Can anybody help me?

  • For the last month or so, skype has been breaking at the drop of a hat.

    Hello, I've been becoming increasingly frustrated with what appears to be the rapdily increasing instability within Skype, mainly through straight up crashes.
    At seemingly random times, the slightest thing will cause Skype to lock up, then stop responding. On occasion it will close or give me an option to 'debug', which just opens Microsoft Visual Studio (?). However, a lot of the time it throws an error, such as every single time I attempt to change a profile picture of any sort  (i.e. mine, a group's, etc.) which means I can no longer change my profile picture. While I am uncertain as to whether the error is the same every time, it is always an 'access violation', and the one that gets thrown from attempting to change profile picture is the following: "Access violation at address 005BD775 in module 'Skype.exe'. Read of address 21033000." I have the most updated drivers, tried reinstalling, have the latest DirectX and all to no avail. I am running a 64 bit version of Windows 7.
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I do not want to switch to another service, but the frequency of these crashes along with their seemingly random causes, is too inconvenient to ignore. Kind regards, Taverin

    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool. Go to Windows Start  and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post. Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • HT1414 I just got a replacement iPhone and when I try to restore it, it restores to almost a year ago when there is an available sync from last month. How do I back it up to the more current one?

    When you right-click on the name of your phone you should see these options (where "iPhone" is the name of your phone):
    Are you saying you don't see these?

  • All my iCloud photos are downloading to one of my computers, but only the last month's worth to another.  How can I get them all to download to both computers?

    All my iCloud photos are downloading to one of my computers, but only the last month's worth to another.  How can I get them all to download to both computers?

    When you on photo stream you will only get photos from the last 30 days (plus future photos added to your stream).  That's because they only remain in iCloud for 30 days.
    To get the old photos on your computer, import them using your usb cable, as explained here: iOS: Import personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer.

  • I have an iMac5,1 with an intel processor.  For the last month or so, whenever I play a video from an outside source - e.g. YouTube, the picture jumps and breaks-up.  All of my software is up-to-date.  Any thoughts on how to fix this problem?

    You're welcome. As to checking speed go to http://speedtest.net/ and it will choose the closest server for you. BTW, whatever you do, don't click on the robot icon that says "Start Scan" or MacKeeper below that. Only use the speed test in the middle that has the button BEGIN TEST on it. It will run a download speed test first and then an upload speed test. The download test will give a much faster response.

  • My phone has been smashed I need to get records of all my iMessages and texts from the last month. How do I get these?

    My phone has been smashed I need to get records of all my iMessages and texts from the last month. How do I get these?

    Do you have a backup of your iPhone which contains these messages?
    If so, you can restore a new iPhone from that backup during setup.
    If not, the messages are gone.

  • How to get the sales value of the last month in the quarter

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to get the "Sales" value against a quarter. We have 2 tables "Time" and "Sales". We want to display the Sales value against each quarter.
    But this should happen as follows.
    Consider quarter Q1 it should display the value of 3rd month, Q2 should display value for 6th month and so on..
    If in any particular Quarter we dont have a value for last month then it should display the value for 2nd month, if 2nd month value is also not present then it should display 1st month sales value.
    We are using excel as the database.
    Please let us know if anybody has a resolution to this.
    Regards,
    Apoorv Chitre

    hi,make an other column which will be the flag for the last months you want to be displayed...
    so ,in reports,you pass it as hidden column(by filter only the ones which have the appropriate flag),and then voila...
    i hope i helped

  • The events of the last month have suddenly disappeared.  I have opened these successfully several times during the last few weeks, but on opening them yesterday they weren't there any longer. No idea how this could have happened! Possible to retrieve ???v

    The events of the last month, with the photographs have suddenly disappeared from the iPhoto Library.  I have opened these successfully several times during the last few weeks, but on opening them yesterday they weren't there any longer. No idea how this could have happened! Is it possible to retrieve ???

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Trying to rent movie from Apple TV. Message states a valid address is necessary to purchase. We have purchased about 15 show in the last month along. Any suggestion on how to update valid email address

    trying to rent movie from Apple TV. Message states a valid address is necessary to purchase. We have purchased about 15 show in the last month along. Any suggestion on how to update valid email address.

    I got the same error and can't get it to work.  My email and home address have not changed in the 3 years I've been using this device, my credit card info is up to date and my most recent rental was 2 days ago yet I get the error message on both the Apple TV and in iTunes.  I don't understand what the issue is, nothing is invalid.
