How to delete empty mail messages in my Ipad2

I am receiveng empty mail messages in IPad2 and can not select them for deletion. They have no headers, no from or to, nothing? Any clues on how to select them? Edit in mail does not work either.

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'

  • How to delete all mail messages in account

    I can delete mail one by one, but is there a way to delete all emails in an account?

    Edit Menu/Select All then Delete
    Where's the Edit menu in the iPhone Mail app??
    @James - there is a Delete All option for the Trash mailbox, but not for any other mailbox. You can tap Edit then manually tap the selection circles next to each message, then tap delete. But, that's very inefficient! Your best bet is to access the mail account from a computer mail client (Apple Mail, Outlook, etc.) or a webmail interface and delete all the messages there.

  • How to delete empty Last Import albums on Ipad2

    This is both a question and a partial solution to anyone who has found empty Last Import albums on their Ipad2 after upgrading to IOS 5.1.  I ended up with three Last Import albums on my Ipad under the Photos App after the upgrade to 5.1 and Iphoto app.
    I could not delete them no matter what I tried.  Even turned off Photo sync in Itunes and had it remove all photos from the Ipad and the empty folders are still there.
    I ended up trying a round about way of getting rid of the empties.  I reasoned that the Camera Connection kit had created this mess and maybe it could fix it.
    Solution:   (Only practical with a few empty folders)
    Shoot some photos with a digital camera using a SD card.
    Put the SD Card in the Camera Connection Kit and connect to the Ipad.  Import the images but keep them on the card.
    Disconnect the CCK and hook up to your Mac with Iphoto running. Import the images and delete from the Ipad when asked.
    Delete photos from Iphoto.
    Repeat several times and you should notice that each time one more Last Import album vanishes from the Ipad.
    Hope this helps someone else with this problem and Apple comes out with a better solution to this.

    I found a solution! I added a comment over on the shimworld blog (http://shimworld.wordpress.com/2011/11/02/how-to-remove-empty-photo-import-event s-on-your-ipad-2/#comment-18392), I'll repost it here:
    I ran into this same issue on my new iPad(3rd gen) after upgrading from iPad 2, I had a few hundred empty events(it took at least 30s of scrolling as fast as I could to reach the bottom). I use the camera connection kit as well as the EyeFI app to import photos constantly so it was a bit of a mess. I’m doing a road trip to SF area soon and needed space for new photos so I need to figure something out. After a bunch of digging around on the internet and looking into tools from my earlier jailbreaking days, I found a solution to do a full reset on the Photos.app. This does NOT require a jailbreak!
    First I imported all photos to my mac using Image Capture. Then I turned off iCloud’s PhotoStream, turned off photo syncing in iTunes and let a the iPad do a full sync and backup. Next I ran DiskAid and deleted the photo related folders under the File System -> Media area(see below). This removed EVERYTHING from the Photos.app. Then I rebooted the iPad. The Photos.app was empty just like on a new device! I snapped a couple pics with the camera and it created the camera roll, I turned PhotoStream back on, synced some photos from iTunes. Everything seems to be working great now, just like new!
    BEWARE: THIS WILL DELETE ALL PHOTOS STORED ON YOUR DEVICE in Photos.app!!! MAKE A BACKUP!!!!
    Connect iOS device with USB and fire up DiskAid. In DiskAid click File System, then click Media. READ WARNING and accept.
    Delete these folders:
    PhotoData (this has all the photos, database, etc synced from iTunes)
    DCIM (this is the camera roll)
    Photos (I think this is just the data to determine which iTunes library its synced with)
    PhotoStreamsData (iCloud Photo Stream data)
    Reboot iPad(probably not required but doesn’t hurt)
    Enjoy a fully reset Photos.app!
    DiskAid: I used v5.12 on my Mac Mini(10.7.3)

  • 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.

  • Why I cannot assess deleted Apple mail messages in time machine after installing mountain lion from snow leopard.

    Ever since I installed Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard, I cannot retrieve my deleted Apple mail messages from Time Machine.  I could do it in the past using Snow Leopard.  The effective date for the the non-retrival of deleted messages is the date I installed Mountain Lion from Snow Leopard.  Any thoughts?

    It was origionally a local folder for things like receipts from the Apple Store, etc
    I'm still not sure what you mean . . . is it listed in the "On My Mac" section in Mail's sidebar, like these?
    Mountain Lion appears to have given it an icon very much like an Archive box and put the "on My Mac" folder within that "Box" on both the back ups and the new Mail program - in fact it did it 6 times, which was the origional problem.
    Can you post a screenshot?
    I could restore inbox messages although they came in as a new mail box called Time Machine rather than into their origional mailboxes (there are 7 different addresses)
    Yes, that's how Time Machine restores Mail messages, so it doesn't erase the current contents of an existing mailbox.  You can then move them into the desired location.

  • HT1277 how to delete e mail from my yahoo server once i down loaded to my apple mail

    how to delete e mail from yahoo server once i down loaded to my apple mail

    Hi wh2,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    If your Yahoo account is set up as a POP account, you can set the option "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message" in the Advanced settings of Mail.
    See this article for the steps to locate this option:
    Using a POP account with multiple devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3228
    In Mail for Mac OS X 10.5 or later, choose Mail > Preferences.
    Click the Accounts tab.
    Select the account for which you wish to change the settings.
    Click the Advanced tab.
    Select the "Remove copy from server after retrieving a message" option.
    Also, this article has more information on the options found in the Advanced tab:
    Mail (Mountain Lion): Advanced accounts preferences
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11686
    Remove copy from server after retrieving a message
    Specify when you want to delete received messages from the mail server. You can deselect this option if you need to temporarily access messages from more than one location or computer.
    This option is available only for Post Office Protocol (POP) accounts.
    Best,

  • How do I transfer Mail Message Rules between Macs?

    How do I transfer Mail Message rules from an iMac running OS X 10.6.8 to an iMac running OS X 10.8.5? The names of the plist files don't match.

    The easiest way to accomplish this is to *create a new admin account* in the System Preferences/Accounts Pref Pane. Once the new admin account *(make sure the Allow user to administer this computer is checked in the new account)* is set up and performing like it should (by logging into it and verifying that you can actually administer the computer), change your primary account (the account that owns your emails) to a standard account by un-checking the *Allow user to administer this computer* in the Accounts Pref Pane. You can still administer the computer with your standard account, you will have to provide your admin login and password in the Authentication dialog boxes.
    Hope this helps.

    How to delete e-mail recipients from your address book

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

  • Cannot delete 1 mail message on iPad

    Cannot delete 1 mail message on iPad.  Looks corrupted. 

    You could try deleting it by logging into your account on a browser. Otherwise try turning the account off and on and see if you can then delete it : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely and try again when you re-open Mail : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
