How to delete mail on iphone when downloaded to thunderbird

New to iphone.
I have a comcast account and a gmail mail account.
In the gmail account when a message is moved from the inbox to a label, it gets deleted from the iphone automatically.
On the comcast account when the mail is downloaded automatically into thunderbird, the mail stays on the iphone even though it is no longer in the inbox on the comcast server.
Any ideas to get the comcast mail to auto delete from the iphone when is leaves the comcast server inbox?
Thanks

Not with a POP account and Comcast supports POP account access only. A POP account is designed to be accessed with a single email client only.
A Gmail account can be accessed as an IMAP account. All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account.

    Try this first - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • How can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out

    how can i delete songs from iPhone when they are grayed out. It doesnt let me delete from itunes either and its just taking up space on my iphone and i cant even listen to the song that are grayed out

    I did this with about 100 songs, and the problem is everytime I connect my iphone with itunes, It will automatically sync back every single song I did delete on the phone by swiping.
    I did search on google and found out that serveral people has this problem. The songs wont delete from itunes library.
    So why do they even make this function if it only deletes the songs for a short time?
    Best regards PelleRPG.

  • Delete mail from server when deleting from mail

    I like Mail.
    But - the ONE feature I miss from Entourage is this:
    Delete mail from server when deleting the trash
    Mail can be set to delete messages from the server -- after downloading to the local computer. OK - BUT - I read my email from 3 computers. I want to keep the messages on the server - unless I delete them after trashing - and to read them on 3 computers.
    The BEST way is to delete when I trash them -- NOT when I read them.
    Using the mail program to see all messages on the server and to then delete them one-by-one is a major PITA.
    How can I tell Apple to add this feature?

    Use the "When moved from Inbox" option that should do it. If you trash it then it goes, if you move it goes... HTH

  • Cannot delete photos from  iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried all solutions using Itunes and it doesn't delete them from iphone

    Cannot delete photos from iphone 5 downloaded from pc.  Tried the ITunes solution and it does not delete the photos.  Try a second time and Sync doesn't even start

    I see the photos tab and "My Pictures" folder shows.  Sync is unselected.  It asks if I want to delete the photos when I click on sync and I said yes but it didn't work.  It does seem that some photos are removed based on available storage left (decreases).  If I select individual folders, subfolders of "My Pictures" then hit Sync deselected Sync doesn't even start.

  • HT1386 How do I sync my iphone when my computer keeps giving me a "you don't have enough access priviliges" message

    How do I sync my iphone when keep getting a "you don't have enough access priviliges" message?

    I don't know all the details but will ask some basic questions:
    Did you download iTunes on your computer? You sync your phone to your computer by starting iTunes on your computer and connecting your phone.
    Another tip is to use the View menu in iTunes on your computer to View Sidebar. Your phone should show up in the left sidebar of iTunes on your computer when connected to your computer. You select it there and then use the tabs to the right to select items to sync to your iPhone.
    Sorry if these suggestions are too obvious.

    How do i restore my iphone when it has been disabled and cannot be restored through itunes because of the error message that says "The iphone software update server could not be contacted

    Have you jailbroken this device? This will make the iPhone not talk to the Software Update Server (that signs and accepts software updates) please refer to the following link? Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"
    The iPhone will talk to the software update servers, just need to change the host files, it's a simple process, sorry if you were confused about the wording in to top?

    You need to do it through iTunes, by unsyncing them
    Wtih  your iPhone connected, open iTunes on your computer, and click on your iPhone's name.
    This should bring up the Overview Page, then click on the Photos Tab.
    From their uncheck the folders that have the images you want top remove from your phone. Then sync the phone. itunes will remove the pictures during the sync process.

  • HT4946 how do i unlock my iPhone when its locked in the itune plug in mode?

    how do I unlock my iPhone when it is in the itune locked mode for updates, i powered out when i was updating

    Unfortunately once the iPhone is in that mode the best practice is to just restore the whole iPhone via iTunes.
    The iPhone is in recovery mode. So to get it out of recovery mode and restore through iTunes is all you got to do.
    Hope this helps
