How to have email "Auto-Skip" Inbox and put in Mailbox?
Not sure how to label a "Mail" question... sorry.
I have a few people who send me email ALL THE TIME (like 20 - 30 per day), unfortunately, I cannot delete or block them b/c occassionaly I need to read something they send me.... anyway....
I'm wanting to have their mail automatically skip the inbox, and go to a Mailbox I create for them. Unfortunately, Smart Mailboxes seemingly should have this ability, but I can't fingure it out. When I delete an email (that the Smart Mailbox has in it) from the Inbox, it disappears from both, so if I could "Auto-delete" it from the inbox, it would seemingly auto-delete from the Smart Mailbox too.
Oh well... can't figure this one out.
Hi Mike,
"Smart" boxes and ":Smart" folders don't really contain the documents—just a pointer to where the document itself may be found. When you delete the actual message, the pointer has no place to point, so it disappears.
What you are looking for is a "Rule" that will move these messages to a specific folder.
Rules are set in Mail Preferences > Rules.
Regards,
Barry
PS: Regarding 'labeling a Mail question': Mail and Address Book are categorized here as part of the System software, and should be placed in the community for the version of Mac OS X you are using (Snow Leopard), Your question itself clearly indicates it's a "Mail" question.

Question
Emails sent to me are sometime returned to the sender with the message "Inbox full" even though I have maybe less than 100 emails in the Inbox and I regularly compact them. I delete emails from the Inbox and the Sent and Trash boxes to overcome this. How can I increase the storage space to stop this happening?Hi terrybohle1938,
Firefox is a web browser. It provides access to online content. Things like your email are handled by the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll have better luck consulting their documentation.
That being said, deleting only email is a great way to free up space. Another option would be to purchase a "Premium" account if your email provider offers this service. Many times more storage space is offered as part of paid subscription.
Hopefully this helps! -
How do I turn auto-correct off and still have a spell check?
How do I turn auto-correct off and still have a spell check?
I do not believe this.. you can not disable auto correct without disabling the spell checker.. I am struck dumb by this.. I recently bought a mac for the first time.. ive always used windows.. there are more thngs like this than i expected.. I actually find this so ignorant I am lost for words.. this auto correct is a nightmare for me.. and has already caused me a lot of trouble because I have sent emails where words have been changed and i didnt notice and I have unknowingly insulted people.. i use a regular spell checker quite often but apparently I simply have no choice with safari.. oh well I am going to have to find another browser then.. goodbye safari!.. I also use a lot of shortened words and names etc etc.. like for eg I used the shortened word for problems "probs" and it changes it to "probe" and then i go back and change it back to WHAT I WANT TO SAY and it changes it AGAIN!!!!
Does anyone else feel like this is yet another example of how, more and more, we are being treated like morons?
Ok I'll try to stop ranting.. the real point is it should be possible to have a spell checker without auto correct.. -
On my iPad Mini, when I delete an email from the inbox (and it goes into Trash), it immediately deletes that email from the server (ATT/Yahoo). I've called support for both ATT and Apple and can't find a way to have the emails remain on the server.
My husband and I share an email address and if he misses a day checking email on his notebook, he doesn't receive the items that I have sent to Trash on my iPad Mini.
Appreciate suggestions.
[The curious thing is, if I "move" the deleted emails from Trash on my iPad Mini into the Inbox, I can go to my notebook, open my online email and they are back in my ATT/Yahoo Inbox.]Is your Yahoo account set up as POP3 or IMAP?

I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?
I guess you mean one of the resume templates.
What "format" have you saved your finished resume in?
The only formats a Windows user will be able to open are .doc (Word), .pdf and rtf. The 1st 2 are usually the best.
There is no Windows version of Pages.

How do i stop my ipad from automatically deleting my hotmail inbox and putting it into pop trash?
how do i stop my ipad from automatically deleting my hotmail inbox and putting it into pop trash? It has only started doing it since i synced with my MacBook Air
If emails are being deleted, then it's not the Apple products, it's the POP account. When one device reads an email, it's removed from the server, so the other devices can't get that same email. That's a POP account.

Why am I only able to see the 12 most recent emails in my inbox and no more?
I can only see the last 12 most recent emails in my inbox and no more?
Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

Here is how to get everything:
iOS: Transferring information from your current iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to a new device
To get photos taken by or saved to the iPod to the computer see:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
If they were synced from a computer you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView to get them into the computer.

Hello, I have a Macbook Pro 2011, and put an SSD on it. Yesterday i upgrade to Yosemite and sadly mi trim is not supported .... I really need (and demand) a solution to this, because like i see in the manual of the mac, Iam allowed to install a disk.
Try a Safe Boot to clear the dyld_shared_cache (dynamic loader cache)
SafeBoot http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
Safe Boot, which automatically rebuilds this cache (among other things). -
