How do you add folders to the mailbox?

i only have inbox sent and trash. is there a way to make other folders so you can save or put the email in it instead of leaving it in the inbox?

The use and creation of additional folders is dependant on the type of mail you are using, i.e. POP3 versus IMAP or Exchange. If you are using POP3, generally from an ISP provider, then you do not have the ability to create additional folders in your mail client. You also generally will only retrieve mail from a single mail client as well.
IF you have IMAP, this gives you the ability to sync your mail in multiple email clients and can create the additional folders and they will remain in sync. These additional folders are generally created on your computer, but then sync to the iPhone when you next access the mail client.
Exchange is similar to IMAP.
Hope that answers your question.

  • How do you add folders to the music library instead of just individual files in iTunes 10?

    When I try to add folders to the library like I used to be able to, the only option that appears is 'Add files to library' - any tips?

    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    CTRL+B to turn on the menu bar (also opens temporarily with ALT).
    CTRL+S to turn on the sidebar (your device should be listed here as before).
    CTRL+/ to turn on the status bar.
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library to restore the old search behaviour.
    Use View > Hide <Media Kind> in the cloud or Edit > Preferences > Store anduntick Show iTunes in the cloud purchases to hide the cloud items. The second method eliminates the cloud status column (and may allow iTunes to start up quicker).
    The first one will give you access to File > Add Folder to Library.

  • Droid 4 how do you add sounds for the alarm.

    How do you add sounds for the alarm on the Droid 4. I do not like any of the alarm clock sounds.

    In your internal storage of the phone, create a folder called alarms. Then copy or move the audio files to that folder.
    You might need to download a file explorer application from the Android Market.
    If the alarms in the root of storage doesn't work. Create a media folder, then a audio folder in that folder and then move the alarms folder in that folder.
    Or the simplest route, download the app called Ringdroid. You can use that application to set sounds as various ringtones types.

  • How do you add things to the cloud ?

    How do you add things to the cloud on an iPhone 4

    There are two ways to store things in iCloud - iCloud Drive and iCloud Photo Library (Beta).
    You can store all kinds of documents on iCloud Drive by dragging the documents to the iCloud Drive icon in the Finder sidebar on your Mac, see:  iCloud Drive FAQ
    iCloud Drive will update the documents across all your devices, but i will keep shadow copies on the devices. You will not free space by moving documents to iCloud Drive.
    iCloud Photo Library (Beta). lets you store your photos in iCloud and keep only optimised, smaller versions on the devices, but it is only available on your iPad, iPhone. For the Mac it is only as Beta version available, see:  Apple - OS X - Photos Preview

  • How do you add folders in hotmail on iPad

    How do you add hotmail folders on iPad

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    One of the ways to get around the limitations of POP mail accounts on your iPad is to activate an iCloud account, which is not POP mail, but IMAP mail. Then go into the configuration of your POP mail account and have the account sutomatically forward your email to the iCloud account.
    After you have your iCloud email account it is easy to add and delete email folders.
    Just open the Mail app and tap on iCloud under Accounts on the left of the screen.
    Tap Edit at the top of the screen.
    Tap New Mailbox at the bottom of the screen.
    Name your new Folder and tap Save.

  • Mail - how do you add folders simply and how do you change the name of folders - simply.

    I'm new to Mac - have OS X 10.9.4 - love the machine.  But . . . as a long time PC user, I'm trying to learn to use Mail, Calendar and Contacts.  Mail and Calendars are so HARD to use when you are used to the power and elegance of Outlook.  Mail is just a downright pain compared to Outlook.  Calendar is really a plain jane.  That said, I love the Mac but could really use information about customizing mail appearance, setting up folders in mail, etc.  Also want to know how to customize calendar.  Where can I get good information.  I'm a fairly sophisticated user - want more than making font sizes different - I need to add some pizzazz.
    Thank you

    Thank you Barney.  Your info was helpful.  I purchased Outlook for Mac; I use it for Word and for Excel.  I like Keynote better than PP.  The Outlook software version is slightly different for a MAC than for a PC.  It would be fine but there seems to be compatibility issues - at least 2 x's a day I get knocked out of my msn or my outlook accounts and have to sign in again when I use Outlook on the MAC.  That's why I'm trying to switch over to Mail and Calendar.  I do like contacts on the MAC.
    I'm used to dressing up my mail and calendar on Outlook.  All mail messages I send are in a customized color, font, etc.  Mac has templates for stationary but they are a little hokey.  I just want a professional look with some color - possibly a simple border.  In Outlook calendar, I am used to a color coding system for various types of appointments (face to face vs. phone, in the office, vs. outside, with staff vs. external folks).  There does not seem to be any way to change the appearance of appointments in MAC - except for work or personal.  That just doesn't meet the use I've been accustomed to.
    Thanks for the help!

  • I have a Plusnet email account but cannot add folders to the mailbox

    I have added an IMAP Plusnet email account to my mail but when I try to add a new folder to the mailbox I get a message saying it can't be added to the server. Plusnet say it is not a problem with their system.

    Assuming that you can send and receive emails with he account and that everything else is working OK, close the mail app completely and reboot the iPad. I also assume that you are seeing the Edit button at the top of the email account window that let's you add New Mailboxes.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app thumbnail preview window to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • How do you add icons to the iPhone which are listed as purchased apps and show installed but are not appearing on the screen.

    Some of my purchased apps show installed but don't appear as icons on my phone. How do I get them to be icons?

    I am back.  I have now sorted out my Launch Pad to be organized the way I want it. I have decluttered my Dock.  Very nice. 
    Now I want to add some of the remaining icons for apps that did not automatically show up in Launch Pad.  So, again, how do I do that?

    Go to the Applications tab, with ipod attached to itunes and select to sync apps and select the ones you want to sync - same as music, photos, videos, etc.
    You have to have software version 2.0 or later on your ipod touch for this.
