How do you select all when trying to delete mail messages

How can I select "all" email messages to delete them?  I know with PC you can push control + a, how do you do it on a MAC?

Instead of Control A on any Mac it's Command A. For a list of keyboard shortcuts please click Keyboard Shortcuts

  • After upgrading the new operating system, it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select

    After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

    Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
    As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
    Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

  • How do you selected all text boxes in a document

    Say you have 100 pages in a document and you have a threaded text box placed on pages 1 through 100. How do you selected all the text boxes at the same time? You might do this to change the size of the boxes, or lock all of the boxes, or apply an object style to all of the boxes.

    Depending upon how well your document is set up though, layout adjustment might work.
    If changing text box size is on your agenda, and every text box is lying exactly on guides, then layout adjustment might work.
    The only way I can think of to lock all frames in a story, or to change the size of all text frames in a story, would be to write a Javascript. And, even after years of practice, I know that it'd still be faster for me to just step through the document and make the changes by hand than it would be to bang my head against Javascript for n hours before I found a good solution.
    Barring these exceptions, I think that Bob's statement
    You don't because you can't.
    is actually pretty accurate. Terse, maybe, but accurate.

  • How do you select all in spam folder of yahoo mail classic?

    I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and discovered there is no 'select all' tab for Yahoo classic mail. There has to be a way to delete all the junk mail without having to check each message individually.Please tell me the secret! 
    Thanks, in advance.

    FYI, I discovered that the problem is with Safari 6.0.1. When I log into my Yahoo mail account with Firefox, both the 'select all' tab and the checkbox at the far left in the 'From' / Subject' header above your e-mail list are present. I checked with my son who is still running Lion, and all of the above information is in his Yahoo account. The Safari he has installed is 5.7.1.
    I wonder what other anomolies I will find.
    Apple if you see this, how about fixing this in your next Safari update?

  • Ipod Touch Mail:  How do you select all and delete?

    I recently decided to start using the mail app on my Ipod Touch. I found the "edit" button for deleting emails, but can't figure out how to select all.

    Thanks

    at 539 I would recommend doing that on your PC when you can. I do understand that it is a hassle when one has a full inbox to move/delete. Now if all of those were in the Trash bin then it is a different story.
    Good Luck.
    Axel F.
    So you can do it from a mac? while synced or something?
    That was the 1st thing I tried, but I couldn't find the files to delete. I'll check it out again.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How do you SELECT ALL on a page (used to CTRL L-CLICK in margin then mouse over selection)?

    In Pages 4x you could hold CTRL+LEFTMOUSE while in the margin area then select multiple things on that page you were looking by mousing over them (including selecting all).  Now you have to go one item at a time to delete? Is there a work-around?

    . ctrl+clicking in iTunes selects all.
    No, it does not. You are still incorrect.
    ctrl + click does NOT select anything.
    It checks all boxes when you ctrl click on one box.
    If you want to select a bunch of consecutive songs...
    Select one then Shift click another, This will select all items from the first selection to the last selection.
    This is just plain nutty and is normally achieved on Windows 7 using ctrl+a,
    No it doesn't
    ctrl + a selects all.
    You are not selecting anything when you check all boxes. You are sinmply checking all boxes.

  • How do you copy all podcast information (new/deleted/downloaded) from one computer to another.

    I am changing my itunes computer and am trying to move my podcast subscriptions from the old machine to the new one.
    I want the new computer to know
    * which podcasts feeds I have subscribed to
    * which podcasts I have deleted
    * which podcasts I currently have downloaded on the old machine, so it can download them on the new machine.
    Currently I have only been able to get the feeds transferred.  The trouble with this is that this only automatically downloads the most recent entry - even of the podcasts that I am completely up to date with and have already seen that episode.  And, for the ones where I am not up to date, unless I can transfer the information, I am going to have to go through and manually delete the episodes I've already watched.  (and unfortunately it's not just a case of finding where I'm up to and deleting all previous episodes (some podcasts are out of order, some I want to relisten to) )
    Is there any way of doing this?  Old machine has iTunes 8.2, new machine has iTunes 10.2

    Thanks - I used the Layer > Duplicate command and it worked great!
    P.S. How do you drag and drop a layer? I tried dragging a layer to the other open image, but nothing happened. Do you have to hold down a specific key for this (I'm using Windows)?

  • TS3276 how do you adjust the line spacing in incoming mail messages?

    Some of my mail messages are so compressed they are unreadable. Does anyone know if this can be adjusted? If so, how????????
    Thanks!

    Leading is the spacing between lines. In the Print module, when you scroll to the Type feature, make sure you have the extended the Type arrow (shown below), as well as the character menu (also shown below).
    When you have that extended, you will see the leading slider, as well as auto leading button. please adjust those as you wish.
    I hope this helps,
    thank you

  • Safari quitting when trying to delete mail in my aol account

    Help...my safari quits every time I try and delete an email from my aol account...can anyone help me?

    Hi ronabell! And A Second Welcome To Discussions!
    Unfortunately, this issue has been around for some time, and it doesn't seem that a correction is forthcoming. But if I hear of any news on the subject, I will be sure to post it.
    Repost if you have any questions about the info in the Link.
    Maybe you can answer a question for me. I'm curious why some AOL users prefer to open their Email through Safari, instead of just using AOL. I find that method is more cumbersome. What is your reason?
    Ferd,
    Thanks for posting the link!

  • When deleting a message in mail, how do you get it to advance to the next message? whenever i delete a message it goes back to the previous message.

    when trying to delete a message in mail, i would prefer to advance to the next message. i delete a message and the curser goes back to an earlier message. i usually delete the most recent messages first.

    First of all, you've posted in the Snow Leopard forum, but your profile says you're running Leopard, not Snow Leopard. What version of Mac OS X are you really running? You should always be sure that your profile matches the forum you're posting in, otherwise the "solution" to your problem may be totally ineffective.
    Part of your problem is that deleting Mail messages depends on how you have them ordered. If they are listed in Descending Date order (most recent at the top), and you want to delete a series of consecutive emails from an earlier time, you should select the last one in that group and press the Delete key; with each one that's deleted, the selection will move to the next one up the list. You could also select the first one in the group, then Shift-click on the last one in the group and press Delete to get rid of them in one step.
    If you have them listed in Date Ascending order (most recent at the bottom), you would have to select the oldest message(s) you want to delete and select it (or them) and press the Delete key, and the selection would move down the list to the next most recent message in the window.

  • There is no trash can at the bottom of my iphone5 when trying to delete photos.  so how do you do it.  it has two boxes, share and add to

    When trying to delete photos from my iphone 5, there is no trash can at the bottom, only two boxes one says share the other add to.  So how do you delete photos

    he only photos that would have the trash can are those that you take with the iPhone camera. Other photos are handled through the sync process in iTunes.

  • HT1296 How do you put all music on Ipod back onto a previously crashed computer in which the original music files were not able to be restored?

    Hi, HOW DO YOU PUT ALL MUSIC FROM IPOD BACK ONTO A PREVIOUSLY CRASHED COMPUTER IN WHIHC ALL MUSIC FILES WERE UNABLE TO BE RESTORED.
    My computer crashed a few months ago and my IT guys were not able to restore my music files.. at least I can't find them. When I log into Itunes, all of my music and play lists appear but when I click to play a song in Itunes on computer, it says the files can not be found. My Ipod obviously has all of my music but I'd like to add more (without deleting what I've got on there) and to copy back whats on my Ipod back to my computer. If I plug together and my computer sync then I will loose all music... needing detailed instructions please.

    from what i understand, the procecess is similar on both mac and pc, so i'll try help you here. have you set your preferences to "automatically update all"?
    Yes i have.
    if this isn't working, maybe try moving one that you are certain is in the correct format, manually. import it from scratch to your itunes, and then copy it to the ipod.
    If i click 'import files' the only files it comes up with are text file. Should it be doing this?' So the only files i can import are written documents :/
    If i select 'add files' it dosnt add them to my libary at all.
    I tryed what you said, i deleted my movies then loaded one into my libary which i no is in the right format but it still said that it is unable to put into my ipod.
    Thanks for trying to help by the way :]

  • 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.
