  • How do I save emails in folders on my iPad

    How do I create folders to save emails and attachments in my iPad 2.  What I use briefcases and folders for on my pc.

    If you are on iOS 5 on the iPad and it's an IMAP type account then you should get an Edit button at the top of the list of folders that you currently have on your email account. If you are on iOS 4 or if it's a POP type account then you won't get the Edit button.
    Attachments can't be saved separately in the Mail app, then need to be still attached to the email. If you have an app on the iPad that supports the type of attachment then you might be able to use the iPad's 'open in' function (press and hold the attachment) to copy the attachment to that app.

    How do I save emails in a specific folder in my Documents, NOT in the email account folders.
    Thx,
    Beginner

    Open the email, do a save as have it save to the location you want from the drop down menu (You could select desktop and then drag it into a folder in documents) and click save as a .rtf.
    Or you can copy and paste into a document (Word, Pages, Text Edit...) Make a folder and put it in docs.

  • How can I save email from GS3 to outlook folders at office?

    Blackberry had a handy feature in which you could save email from BB to Outlook folders on the office computer. I cannot find anything similar on the GS3. Is there a way to accomplish this?

    BB created a dedicated network connection to handle transactions like that to keep it secure, Android doesn't have anything like that so you have to trust a 3rd party company to do this for you and at this time I do not think there is any that has a secure method of doing this.

  • How do I save to individual folders on my hard drive?

    How do I save items to individual folders on my hard drive? When I try now it shows the Macintosh HD icon as an option but not the individual folders I've created there. I think I need to go in to Automator but I must be doing something wrong. I selected "Folder Action" then added several items about PDF
    documents and add photos to album. I've specified Macintosh HD as the location and hit run.
    It appears to have run correctly because it asks me if I want to save the results. A friend of mine runs several web sites. He has asked me to serve as his off site backup so I'm trying to download several years of material. Saving everything to the HD and then dragging each item to where it belongs will take forever.
    I'm hoping someone can help.
    Thanks Bill

    Press the blue button with the triangle in the Save dialog box.

  • How do I file email into folders?

    Hi,
    How do I create and file emails into folders?
    I've created a "Smart Mailbox" (whatever that is, lol) and tried to drag emails into that folder but it doesn't work. When I click on the email and want to move it, nothing shows up to move it to: including the smart mailbox that was created.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Lee

    it is creating an alias in that smart mailbox
    I have heard this statement before, but it is not true. A message in a Smart Mailbox (or a file in a Smart Folder in the Finder) is not an alias. It is simply the same original in a different context.
    An alias, in Mac OS terminology, is a separate and distinct file from the original. It is a file whose property is that, when opened, it redirects and opens a different file (the "original"). But the alias itself is a distinct file. It can be renamed, moved, deleted, labeled, etc., without having any effect on the original. None of this is true of the "contents" of a Smart Mailbox/Folder. If you delete a message in a Smart Mailbox, you are deleting the original message. If you drag the message to a (non-Smart) Mailbox, you are moving the original. Some people seem to be confused that a message (or file) can appear to be in more than one place at a time. It is, nevertheless, the exact same message, and misunderstanding this point could have unfortunate consequences.

  • How to automatically "save" email when viewed?

    I'm migrating to Mail after 14+years on AOL where they had a preference to "save email that I read" to an incoming/saved mail folder. Is there a way to do this in Mail automatically so when I open an email to read it, it's automatically saved in an incoming/saved mail folder? I want to MOVE (not copy) every message to a different folder once it's read, for archiving purposes, sort of like a personal diary/journal/blog, as I do a lot of "chatting" in email that documents my life and that of my children.

    Let me explain how I tackle this and maybe, if you like it, you can do the same.
    I hold several mailboxes on my Mac each has its own rule. Apart from that I have a smart mailbox which only holds my unread mails. When my emails arrive I always read them from my smart mailbox and deleting them if I want. If I want to retrieve them I go to the desired mailbox on my Mac.
    I hope this will solve your problem,
    ok, that sounds like it might work--but how do I get the emails into the 'on my mac' folder since I can't find a "if mail is read/unread" condition in the rules?
    thanks!

  • How do I save emails with graphics into documents appear as broken page tried saving as html and all files

    I am using Windows 7, and ISP provider is AOL 9.5 dialup.
    When I attempt to save emails with graphics to My Documents,
    any graphics, usually in body of email as a bitmap or jpeg file, when I reopen email from My Documents, the graphics appear blank, as if a broken/torn page. Is there some settings I need to adjust on Firefox to be able to save complete files.

    I'm not a Mac user, that's my caveat, however there is a button on the ribbon for SharePoint Document Libraries on the Library Tab called Connect To Office.
    If that works with Office 2011 you'll start seeing your SharePoint site as a place where you can store documents in Office.
    Otherwise, you need to click "New" in teh library itself and have SharePoint open Office for you.

  • How do i save emails so i Can fee up space ?

    I would like to save my emails to an external Hard Drive so i can fee up space i have around 15-20Gb of mails with photo Attachments but in the future i may wish to read the emails again can this be done look forward to your answers.Regards.Martin

    Hi Martin,
    It'll be difficult to do so & then have them viewable too, but they can be zipped up & moved for archival purposes.
    Do you have any big Movie sized files that'd be easier to deal with? One DVD could be 4-8 GB.
    How much free space is on the HD, where has all the space gone?
    OmniDiskSweeper is likely the easiest/best, and is now free...

    And if needed, you can use Terminal to run it in admin mode to see files/folders your user can't see...

  • How do I save emails?

    Hi,
    I'm just about to upgrade to Leopard and going to erase and install. I'm not sure how to save my (1200) work emails though in a quick and easy way without doing them individually. I'd like to fill up my inbox again once I've installed Leopard....
    Many thanks for any help,
    Stephen.

    Not sure why you posted here since your question has nothing to do with the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) nor wireless networking.
    If you choose the upgrade option when you install OS 10.5 all of your data will be retained.
    If you backup your users directory /Users/username you will back up all of your personal files. The Mail files can be found in /Users/username/Library/Mail.
    For further questions you should visit the Apple.com > Support > Discussions > Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger > Mail & Address Book - Tiger discussion area.
