How do I set up Apple Mail with Yahoo (IMAP) so I can delete mail on my iphone but leave it on the server and iMac.

I am trying to maintain my inbox on my imac while not carrying around all my mail on my iphone.  As of now, I only seem to be able to sync the inboxes.  If I delete a mail on my iphone, it disappears on both the server and imac.  I only seem to be able to make it move the mail to the deleted mail box and keep it there.

That's the way IMAP servers work. The messages really live on the server; the iPhone and the iMac just view them.

        sharonnyc,
    We would love to investigate into assisting you with getting the correct emails deleted. What make/model device do you currently have? What email program are you trying to delete the emails from (ie. Gmail, Yahoo, etc...)? Also, are you using the standard email application on the device or a downloaded 3rd party email app?

  • How do delete photos from iPhone but keep them on the cloud?

    Is it possible to delete photos from an iPhone but keep them on the cloud? If not what is the purpose of buying extra storage for icloud If you phone can only hold up to 128gb?

    How does iCloud Photo Library save space on my device?
    iCloud Photo Library can move the original high-resolution photos and videos to iCloud and
    replace them with lightweight, device-optimized versions on your iOS device. This helps you
    make the most of your device storage while giving you access to more photos than ever.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings >
    Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You will need
    an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.
    Yes I want to know the answer too.
    If I subscribe to iCloud storage but my iPhone can just hold up to 16 gb.
    Why do I have to do it ? to make my iPad see photos from my iPhone?
    I did try to disable icloud photo while i had 1gb photos stored in my iPhone
    and wipe them out, yes ,nothing left, 0 data. but when I turn on iCloud Photo -
    again. everything come back as preview photos but when I look at each, my phone
    will download them all anyway. so, how can you manage space on devices actually?
    if I have 16 gb on my phone , So I can see all of my 1tb photos on iCloud ?
    and have enough space on the phone to do other things right?

  • How do i use my apple id with ichat?

    how do i use my apple id with ichat?

    Hi,
    Only @Mac.com and MobileMe Apple IDs are valid AIM names as well  (And the Passwords need to be 16 characters of Less - AIM end Issue).
    If you have any other form of Apple ID then you will need to register for either an @mac.com name  or create an AIM one.
    NOTE The @Mac.com Registration requires you link an active Email to the @Mac.com name.
    THIS CANNOT BE an Email address you have used for an Apple ID already.
    The AIM Registration asks for Email address for Security and Password Recovery and is not Hard Linked in the same way (you could use the same email to set up multiple accounts/Screen Names)
    To state things another way:-
    A MobileMe ID is an Email address.
    It is an Apple ID and will work in those places it is supposed to, iTunes, Apple Support Communities (with Alias set up), Face Time (With Registration) Apple On-Line Store, Mac App Store.
    It is a Vlaid AIM NAme as well (If the password is kept to 16 characters or less).
    @mac.com names are Apple IDs with the same access as above.
    It is a Valid AIM Screen Name.
    If it was registered before MobileMe started it maybe linked to a Current MobileMe account as a valid Email.
    A Current Registration is purposely for iChat use and Requires a Non Apple current Email that is NOT linked to any other Apple ID
    Any other name or Email used to create an Apple ID is not an Email with/through Apple.
    It is NOT a valid AIM screen Name.
    It is only an Apple ID that allows access to the places listed above.
    If it is an email this cannot be used to Register with @mac.com
    I hope this is clear.

  • How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail

    How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail?
    My computer is Windows 7 and my Itunes software version is 1.0.2
    Many thanks in advance...

    iTunes 1.0.2 is +at least+ eight years old.
    The current version is 9.2, and it's free.
    If that was a typo, and you're using something more current:
    In the iTunes preferences, change the import settings to mp3.
    Then select the songs you wish to convert.
    From the "Advanced" menu, choose "Create mp3 version".
    When done, change the import settings back to Apple Lossless.
    That's it.
    BTW, this is the Logic Pro forum, which has absolutely nothing to do with iTunes.

  • How do i connect my apple ID with itunes?

    I keep on trying to sign into itunes with my apple id, but it never works . How do I connect my apple ID with itunes?

    To change the iCloud ID you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iDevice, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use. 
    You may find that when you try to do this, the password for your old ID it isn't accepted.  If this happens, and if your old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
