How to delete all my mail

Hello I'm trying to delete all my mail but I don't know how I holded command a and deleting all of them but they keep coming back please help
MacBook Pro Late 2011 edition
OS X Mavericks
4GB of RAM

It would be great if Apple included a select all option in the mail app but I imagine this would result in lots of people deleting all their email when they thought they were in their spam folder and were actually in their inbox so to protect us from our selves, Apple didn't offer this option.  I would love it myself, but as the other poster says, you need to do it on your computer in your web browser.

  • How to delete ALL e-mails from an account

    My husband, Edward, passed away several months ago.  I'm just now getting around to figuring out what he left "in the cloud".  I discovered yesterday that his Verizon.net e-mail account contains close to 30,000 e-mails.  I want to delete all of them, but Verizon segregates the e-mails into pages of 30 each, so when you click the page checkbox, then click Delete, it only deletes the 30 on that page.  That means I would have to repeat this 1,000 times, which I'm not about to do.  I can find no way to delete ALL e-mails.  Is there a way to do that?

    30 messages displayed is the default, but you can change that.  On your email page, under "settings" is an option to change the number of messages per page.  One  option is "no limit."

  • HT1694 How to delete all junk Mail at once?

    I will like to erase all junk mail at once don't want to delete one by one

    One-by-one deletion goes pretty fast if you look at, say, your inbox, click "Edit" and then check each box on the screen.
    Other than that, you cannot delete all mail at once on your iPad, short of restoring it (which would delete all email on your iPad).

  • How to delete ALL 5000 + inbox with ONE step on iphone 6 ?

    Any improvement on that specific issue, from previous models?
    I really don't have patient or time to delete one by one 5000+ inbox e-mails!
    I highly appreciate any help..  
    Thanks!
    RIta

    Try this
    Go to your Inbox folder
    Tap on the "Edit"-Button on the top right
    Select the first email in your list
    Hold down the "Move" button
    While you are still holding the "Move"-Button, deselect the first E-Mail
    Put away all your fingers from the screen and wait a few seconds
    Now Mail asks you where to move ALL of your emails
    Select the Trash Folder as destination
    From inside the Trash Folder, you can delete all items at once
    I will have to find out where I got this from and edit.  It does work, takes a little dexterity and patience.
    Edit:
    quickly looking this is one of the earliest references I have seen (2011)

  • How can I delete all my mail from my computer, but leave it all on .Mac ?

    How can I delete all my mail ( 3.5 ) on my computer ( original G4 ) but leave it all on the .Mac servers?

    backup the device and restore it as new.
    If you already have or don't need a backup:
    Erase your device
    Erasing all content and settings will delete all the data from your device, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, calendar information, and any other data. All device settings are restored to their factory condition.
    To remove all settings and information from your device, tap Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. For more information about this feature, see iOS: Understanding 'Erase All Content and Settings'.
    If you are unable to erase your device, restore the device using iTunes.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  for the exact steps.
    Transferring ringtones isn't supported, as far as I know...

  • How to delete all mails with one klick?

    It's annoying to delete every single mail.
    How to delete all mails with one klick, like in the paperbasket?
    Thanks

    If the emails have been previously deleted (I.e. in the trash folder), tap Edit at the top of the list. You should see a delete all button at the bottom. If the messages are in a standard folder, they need to be handled one at a time.

    To correctly sell or transfer ownership of a Mac, even to someone in your family, you should follow these instructions.
    Disregard anything you are unable to accomplish.
    Refer to What to do before selling or giving away your Mac
    If you enabled FileVault, disable it in System Preferences > Security & Privacy.
    "Deauthorize" your iTunes account. Same for Audible if you have one.
    System Preferences > iCloud > de-select "Back to My Mac" and "Find my Mac".
    Sign out of iCloud. Select "Delete from Mac" when it appears.
    Next: Remove all your personal information by completely erasing the Mac's internal storage.
    If your Mac shipped with a grey System Install DVD, start your Mac with that disc inserted in the optical drive while holding the c key to boot from it instead of its internal volume, which should be erased before selling it.
    If your Mac did not ship with discs, boot OS X Internet Recovery:
    using three fingers press and hold the following keys: ⌘(command), option, and R.
    With a fourth finger press the power button to turn on the Mac.
    Keep the other three fingers where they are until you see the "spinning globe" icon.
    This method forces the Mac to download its originally installed OS from Apple's servers, which will not require an Apple ID to install.
    Remove any Open Firmware password if you created one: select Firmware Password Utility from the Utilities menu and remove it.
    Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    Remove any partitions you may have created.
    Select the Mac's hard disk icon, then select the "Erase" tab.
    Select the "Security Options" button and erase the disk.
    The more "securely" you erase the disk, the longer it will take.
    The fastest method is sufficient since all but the most expensive techniques and equipment will be able to recover securely erased data.
    When it finishes, quit Disk Utility.
    Select Install Mac OS X from the Utilities menu.
    An Apple ID will not be required. If a prompt for an Apple ID appears, return to Step 5.
    Do not create any user accounts.
    When it finishes, shut down the computer.
    If you want to install the bundled apps that were included with your Mac, restart by using your Applications DVD if one was included, and install the bundled apps. Apps bundled with newer Macs that shipped without discs cannot be transferred. Its new owner must purchase them from the Mac App Store using his or her own Apple ID.
    If the Mac is being sold to someone outside the family consider the following additional information:
    System Install DVDs that came with your Mac should remain with it forever, and must be included with the sale.
    Consider including your AppleCare certificate if you bought it, printed documentation, even the box if you still have it. AppleCare stays with the equipment and is transferable.
    Execute a bill of sale showing the Mac's serial number.
    Once no longer in your possession, remove the Mac from your devices in My Support Profile.

  • HT3228 i got a new phone and ended up wit 4000 e mails any idea of how to delete all at once

    i have a i phone and ended up with 4000 eails any idea how to delete all at once

    Most likely there's nothing wrong with your phone, but its likely that your account is not provisioned properly in the carrier's network.

  • I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that (settings/usage) it was using 900  mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.

    I'm having problems with excessive email usage on my iphone 4/ios 7. Just noticed that it (settings/usage) was using 900+ mb. I deleted all my mail, deleted the mail account, turned the phone off and back on, downloaded any remaining mail on the server to Outlook on my computer, and it still says it's using 661 mb. My ipad uses a fraction of that.
    Background: I recently (December) bought an ipad and set up icloud for contacts and calendar, but NOT mail. My email provider is Verizon. I use computer, iphone, and ipad to check my email; eventually I download it from the server using Outlook on the computer and then delete any remaining emails from the phone and ipad. I can't find info on this problem anywhere.

    Howdy there COUGAR444,
    It sounds like your iPad all of a sudden seems to be restarting out of no where. If you haven't called AppleCare yet, I would start with quitting either the app that seems to be causing the issue, or all the apps if a single doesn't seem to be the culprit. 
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes, then restore it as new and verify that it works. 
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Regards,
    Sterling
