How to add notes from mail.app to dock?

Hi guys,
Is it possible to add a shortcut to the Notes feature of mail.app to the dock? I'm using Lion.
Basically I'd like to use the Notes feature of mail.app instead of Stickies (stickies won't sync with my iPhone over iCloud, but Notes will).
Thanks for your help!
Ben

Jason,
If the account is IMAP, then the Inbox (and Sent) reside on the server. You should only need to remove the account, and set it up again. Any copies of messages from an IMAP account are only meant to be temporary, and useful for Offline Viewing. Backing up the cached copies of IMAP messages may not be a great idea, some times, if messages get removed from the cache, and then you resync with the server.
More info, please.

Help, how to export emails from mail app

hi guys: I did not uncheck the box remove emails from the server after ..... so my hotmail on the server are gone. i want to have email copys stores on the server, since i need to check hotmails from any computer, not just on my home computer where the emails backup copys are stored. so i want to export my emails from the mail app in the mac back to hotmail server, how can i do that?? please give me a hand, i will really appreciate

You can do it via Mailbox>Archive Mailbox. And also, based on what you're saying you have Hotmail set up as an POP account in Mail. Don't know if Hotmail offers it, but if you set up the Hotmail account as IMAP in Mail then the behaviour will be different. You will have two copies of the emails on both the server as well as the computer. Go to Hotmail's help section and type in keyboards like "IMAP" and "Apple Mail."

Exchange 2007 to Zarafa server works from iPhone, not from Mail.app

I have all my colleagues around me with their iPhones setup to connect to our Zarafa-mailserver. However I cannot get it to work using Mail.app.
What's the difference between the iPhone implementation and that on Mail.app?

I have the same problem: my employer uses a Zarafa email server. My iPod touch can send and receive emails using Microsoft Exchange (in place of IMAP), though it marks some messages as unread even though they're marked read elsewhere. Mail.app (Snow Leopard) cannot connect to the server with Microsoft Exchange, though IMAP is ok. Any insight would be appreciated!

How can I get my mail app to sync from my mac to iPhone, I don't have the 'info' option in iTunes?

How can i get my mail app to sync from my mac to iphone? i dont have the 'info' option in itunes!
I have created files within the mail app and want them to be the same on my mac and iphone.

You need a mail server that supports this then. Hotmail premium I believe does, but the free version does not. Gmail supports it, and any ISP that offers IMAP supports this capability. iCloud definitely supports it, so if you create a free iCloud email account and switch your primary email to it you would have this capability.

I inadvertently removed the junk mailbox from Mail.app in SL, how can I recreate / restore it ?

Hi,
Well, the title says it all : I inadvertently removed the junk mailbox from Mail.app in SL,
it still is spresent in my ~/library/mail folder, how can I recreate / restore it in mail.app ?
Since I have a fair number of email accounts, intelligent mailboxes, rules and archive folder, I really don't want to rebuild everything. And, no, I can't use time machine to restore it.
All help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi AdamKB, sorry for late follow-up.
What I lost is the "container" that groups all junk mailboxes in one place in Mail, like is done for all the inboxes.
The problem is that I lost visibility on all junk mailboxes. It is only a visibility problem because the junk mailboxes are still present locally for my POP accounts and remotely for may IMAP accounts, I justdon't see them anymore in Mail's interface.

Im going to restore my ipod touch(4th gen) to factory settings. my question is, how do i back up all notes from the app "notes" so they can be reinstalled? or is it allready backed up as per the main "back-up" ?

The iPod backup that iTunes makes includes Notes.and other app data. However, it does not included synced media like apps and music.
Thus, just restore from backup with all your synced media in your iTunes library.

How to switch focus in Mail.app?

Hello!
I am trying to use Mail.app only with the keyboard.
However one last thing keeps me using the MagicTrackpad: I was not able to discover how to switch the focus from one folder of the folder list on the left side to the mails within this folder (in the middle panel - using the 3-panel-view).
Do you have an idea how to do this?
Thank you!
Kind regards,
Vlad

Hi, Jeffrey!
Thanks for your reply!
In the linked article you can find:
"You can use the tab key to switch between the three areas of Mail.app’s interface — (1) the Mailbox Viewer, (2) The Message List Viewer, the (3) Preview Pane and the search field in the Toolbar:"
This is no longer true for me (not even in the classic design!), running Version 6.2 (1499) from Mail.app with 10.8.2: I can not switch between this areas using the tab key!
Do you?
Kind regards,
Vlad

10.6.7, hardware failure but the hard drive is intact. I can access the hard drive via Linux. Need to get mail from Mail.app and from Entourage 2004.

I need to know a couple of things, but y'all may not have all the answers I need.
First, I need to know how to retrieve the mail files from Mail.app and from Entourage 2004. I don't know if this is a valid asusmption, but in my experience with Windows, I know that Outlook keeps everything in a single monolithic .PST file. Is this the case with either Mail.app or with Entourage?
Second, I need to know how to access said mail files in a Linux mail app. The mail from Mail.app is more important than that from Entourage, so it has to take priority. Will I need some sort of converter program, or is there enough similarity between Mail.app and one of the Linux mail applications that I can simply import it? (BTW, I'm running Ubuntu Linux 11.04 on my Linux netbook. I wish there was some way I could get Snow Leopard on here.)
Any advice on any of this problem will be extremely helpful. Thanks.

Direct install MacBuntu (based upon Ubuntu 11.04)

I have it running on one of my single core netbooks.
WIth your other problem, just borrow a Mac temporariy, drag a enclosure to a Apple Store and use one of theirs, they don't mind as they have Deep Freeze installed on all their machines so changes don't stick upon rebooting.

How to transfer notes from my mac to icloud?

how to transfer notes from my mac to icloud?

Go to System Preferences>iCloud, sign into your account and check Notes. If you've already done this, open the Notes app and check to see what account(s) your notes belong to (on the left sidebar). If they don't belong to the iCloud account, drag and drop them to the iCloud account to add them to iCloud.

How to synch notes from iPhone to Mac (10.9)

Hi,
I'm really confused as to how to synch notes from my phone to / from my Mac..
I went in to iCloud and it seems to insist that I create a new email account ([email protected])...why do I need to do that?I already have iCloud synching of addresses on my address book without this?
Can anyone explain how to do this?
I've looked at the Apple support site and all it says is "You can sync with the Notes app using IMAP or iCloud. Syncing Notes using iTunes is no longer supported on OS X v10.8 and later."....but this doesn't really help me. I need a bit more to go on...!
Thanks,
Alan.

If you open Notes (the computer application), do you have any notes there? If so, are they under On My Mac or iCloud? Does iCloud show there at all? If iCloud doesn't show there, Notes/Default Account - see if iCloud is there and set it up as your default account. That should give you what looks like the screen shot below (if the forum software will show it).
If iCloud doesn't show there, Notes/Add Account and select iCloud.

ICal.app doesn't grab events/invitations from Mail.app

Morning.
My colleagues are using MS Outlook and send me invitations. I receive their emails with ICS attachments. In iCal.app I've activated »Preferences > Advanced > Automatically request invitations from Mail.app«. (I use a German GUI, therefore I do not exactly the terminology on an English GUI.)
But iCal.app does not grab and display such invitations.
What's wrong? What can I do to solve this serious problem?
TIA and kind regards, Friedrich

In fact the feed is at http://bongqiuqiu.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default
The oldest post in the feed is November 10, and Mail is showing back as far as that - a total of 25 posts.
There may be older posts on the website, but many blog creation services limit the number of entries shown in the feed, moving older ones to an archive page and out of the page once that limit is reached. I don't know about Blogger, but I would assume that this is the case with this feed. You can expect the November 10 entry to disappear once a new one is added.

Syncing To-Dos from Mail.app

Is anything special required to get the ToDos to synch from Mail.app with the iCal server?
For example, I can create ToDos, but they're not showing up on my iCal.app.
I have an entry in iCal that shows "IMAP" and under it, a calendar for my ToDos, but none of the actual ToDos show up in there.
It seems to me that there is some communication going on between my iCal.app, and my IMAP server because I can change the name of the calendar in iCal, and that also changes it in my Mail.app, so I'm not sure why the actual events (ToDos) are not showing up.

You need a third party app:

Cannot forward one page PDF files from mail app

My earlier topic had incorrect problem report so I've created a new topic.
The problem is i cannot forward one page PDF file from mail apps. I use imap set up for my work email.
Multi page PDFs, photos, docs, numbers, all forward OK for both windows and Mac formats.

Update: I hade had a reply from the Good Reader app developer saying this is a known issue even for them. However, they don't know if Apple will fix this or not.
Basically mail app treats all one page PDF as if it's an image and will forward it the same as it would an image. Any non-apple based mail programs will have issues viewing this file..
