How to reinsert missing messages

Greetings,
I use a PowerBook Pro (Intel) running OS 10.4.9. I also use dot Mac and have my e-mail set as IMAP. About a week ago, there was some issue with dot Mac that resulted in some missing e-mail.
I have a backup, but I do not use the Apple backup software; instead, I just copy my entire user folder to my external LaCie drive. I have located my mail folder and found the missing messages. When I click on one of them, the mail application opens so I can read it, but I cannot save it into a folder within Mail. I can copy the missing e-mails to the folder location on the hard drive, but the mail does not show up, and I cannot use import because it says the file type is not recognized.
How can I get my e-mail back into the Mail program? Please Help!
Power Book Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

Hello Ricky & Judy.
You can restore those messages by importing the mailboxes from the backup. Problem is, Mail cannot import cached server-stored *.imapmbox mailboxes directly; only locally stored *.mbox mailboxes.
However, if Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Keep copies of messages for offline viewing is set to All messages and their attachments (the default setting), then Mail 2.x caches server-stored mailboxes using the exact same format it uses for locally stored mailboxes, except the suffix of the mailbox folder in the filesystem is .imapmbox instead of .mbox.
Hence, if Keep copies of messages for offline viewing was set to All messages and their attachments throughout the lifetime of the mailboxes (or since before the last rebuild), *.imapmbox mailboxes can be imported back into Mail as if they were locally stored mailboxes by just renaming them so that the suffix is .mbox instead of .imapmbox — note that this wasn’t the case in Mail 1.x; that version used entirely different formats for *.mbox and *.imapmbox mailboxes.
Note also that, after doing File > Import Mailboxes and choosing Mail for Mac OS X, Mail wants you to select the folder that contains the mailboxes to be imported (i.e. the folder where the *.mbox folders to be imported reside), not the *.mbox folders themselves nor the Messages folders within them. If you select the wrong folder, Mail says “No valid Mail for Mac OS X files were found” because it cannot find any *.mbox folders within the folder you’re selecting.

    If you don't want them to be unified, don't use the same Apple ID for FaceTime and iMessage on our devices.  Go to Settings>Messsages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a separate ID.  Do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.

  • Missing Message Attributes: URL/HTTP Destination

    Hello,
    following scenario:
    There is a sync. interface between SAP PI ante the Paypal API within the HTTP adapter calling a dynamic URL.
    The dynamic URL is created as mentioned in this blog: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/7264. [original link is broken]
    Also the HTTP adapter is configured as described (Adapter Specific Message Attributes and URL are flagged).
    Following error occours when testing the call:
      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
    <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">

    Is there sth. special I have to consider in the HTTP Adapter?
    Thanks in advance,
    André

    Hi Michal,
    I´m passing the URL to the attribut "TargetURL" by using a UDF in my mapping.
    In the adapter I have flagged "URL".
    So the value of TargetURL set in mapping shoul be used as destination in the adapter.
    Please have a look onto my UDF used in MM:

    Adapter settings:
    http://img691.imageshack.us/i/adaptersetting1.jpg/
    http://img339.imageshack.us/i/adaptersetting2.jpg/
    How can I check that the TargetURL is successfully set as a dynamic parameter?
    Thanks,

  • Message Monitor Missing Messages in Adapter Engine

    All,
    I had over 200 messages in my adapter engine but recently I only see 115 for the same period.  
    Additionally, all of the 850 (PO) inbound messages are gone.   I see them in the Integration Engine but not in the Adapter Engine anymore.    
    I need to repeat processing for a particular 850 message and so I am wondering:
    (1)   Any suggestions on why these messages are missing ?
    (2)   Is this a retention period issue ?  If so, how do I control the period ?
    (3)   How can I retrieve these messages ?
    (4)   Is there another place where I can re-process the 850 messages I need.   Where and how ?
    Thanks everyone in advance for your help.
    Regards,
    Andy

    Hi,
    >>>(1) Any suggestions on why these messages are missing ?(2) Is this a retention period issue ? If so, how do I control the period ?
    It may be caused coz of some adapter failure which you are using for that particular  scenario. Also for rention period you can check it in the particular communication channel, but i don't think it will be the issue. try finding it in moni, if it is not there go to RWB and then find it for you particular interface. If it is not there try to find the status.
    >>>(3) How can I retrieve these messages ?(4) Is there another place where I can re-process the 850 messages I need. Where and how ?
    In RWB -> message monitoring you will find all the message, Try searching it for your interface and the you can select all messages and you can reprocess it.
    For error message , in RWB go to particular adapter, and check if it is running or not. It must be in running status. so check and let us know about it.

  • Missing messages: Selection completed

    Hi
    We are extracting data from R/3 to BW using custom extractor which is used function module.  Data is coming to BW and we could see same number of records as R/3 in PSA .The problem is in the detail tab of RSMO under extraction missing messages “Missing messages: Selection Completed” shows yellow and the extractor job in R/3 side shows active and we could see in SM51 it’s running and accessing ROIS table. When we go and check in ROIS table we didn’t see our Info source over there. Is this the problem? Don’t know how it related to Missing messages issue.
    Note: We checked RFC Connection, short dumps, TRFC logs, ALE Management, system logs and all.
    Appreciate help.

  • How to install Nokia Messaging Software (Push and ...

    How to install Nokia Messaging Software (Push and Pull email) on SD CARD?
    I have got Nokia Push email instaled on NOKIA 6110 Navigator. This instalation take all of my phone internal memory, and mailbox is in phone internal memory too. How to install or move program or mailbox to SD card?

    I'm surprised that Nokia will spend all that effort to miss out on one little detail - EMAILS WITH ATTACHMENTS TAKES UP A LOT OF SPACE - The least they could do was allow us to point the application storage to the SDHC card.
    I love the messaging app, but I just can't afford to give up so much phone memory - So it is not getting installed until we can point storage to the SDHC card.

  • BW data load issue in infompack. Missing messages....

    Hi.
      while loading data into a big ODS( initial record > 200k) we have seen that the data packet size was around 40k and during load we saw a lot of warnings in the detail status screen with "missing messages".. While we thought that the load is going to fail to our surprise we found that the load was ultimately successful.
    What was the reason for this behavior? How to rectify this? By controlling packet size of the info package?
      Also when we are updating one ODS from another in the same system( by generating the myself data source etc) where do we mention the packet size ??
       Thanks
    Arun

    Hi Arun,
    It's a normal system behaviour when default messages are "missing messages". After messages are received these warnings are replaced by succesful messages.
    Packet size on a level of particular load you can in the scheduler, menu option Scheduler/DataS. Default data transfer.
    Best regards,
    Eugene

  • Missing Messages during Dataloading

    Hi all,
    We are currently loading up the production system in preparation for Go Live. We noticed that our delta extractions were not getting activated in the PSA as there were missing messages. On further investigation, we realised that all our loadings were missing a subsequent update message. Pls refer to the attached screenshot. This is happening for three of our ODSes, ZO_SALES, ZO_DELIV, ZO_BILLG, loaded from standard extractors 2LIS_11_VAITM, 2LIS_12_VCITM and 2LIS_13_VDITM respectively. There are no error messages and the overall status of the loading is green, hence we did not realise this until almost all our data was loaded and we started doing our deltas.
    Also, for our delta from 2LIS_12_VCITM to ZO_DELIV, we've had to manually change the status to green before we can proceed. It looks as though all the data is extracted, the only thing missing is once again the messages. Please see the attached screenshots on the second page.
    Has anybody encountered this before? Any idea what is causing the messages not to come? It is only these 3 ODSes that are facing these issues, thanks.
    Kanan.

    Hi Kanan,
    >>We are currently loading up the production system in preparation for Go Live. We noticed that our delta extractions were not getting activated in the PSA as there were missing messages.<<
    <i> If the extraction terminates due to an unhamdled exception then u will be "missing messages". Check for any shortdumps in ST22.

    <i>How do you say that extraction completed? did you check the extraction job in R3 and it was complete?? if not, you might be missing some data!</i>

  • Javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Missing message for key

    I am researching JDevloper (11g) with the possibility of migrating my struts web apps from Eclipse. I use CVS for source control. I started out by creating an application in JDevloper than by using "version" to check out a "module", one of my web apps, and create a project in the application. Next I modified all the project properties required to get a clean compile and set up my DB connection. After this i launched the project (app) in the IDE using the built-in WebLogic app server. Before it even displays the fist page i get this error message: javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Missing message for key "prompt.deploy.mode";. The key ""prompt.deploy.mode"; is in my ApplicationResouces.properties file which it obviously can not find. The place that WebLogic expects it must be different than Tomcat which is the app server i use in Eclipse. This application is also deployed to OAS. If anyone can tell me how to solve this issue I would be most appreciative. Thank you. - Keith

    How do I get messages to go back to an AIM account? It's only seeing the iPad's Facetime email address and not seeing the old AIM account name that is on my desktop. I am using my iMac using iChat to talk to a newer iMac that doesn't have iChat. We had this working using Messages and Facetime (on the new machine) talking to my existing iChat account. One day last week, when Facetime rang, my kids answered on the iPad. Dang! Now it's all fouled up! The new iMac won't see my AIM account name and shows that I'm offline, because the iPad is off. We were able to call using "most recent call" in Facetime, but now I can't go and control that new iMac remotely to help with some email concerns the user is having. I'm trying to not personalize this too much, but it's grandkids talking to Grandma and Mom and Dad trying to solve new machine hiccups. Normally, I could just go in via iChat and control the other machine and troubleshoot, but I can't do it with Facetime only. My buddy list doesn't see  the other computer even though we are connected on Facetime right now. My name is not highlighted for the other computer. What could have gone so wrong?
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • How to delete the messages in the purges folder?

    if the mailbox is enabled the single item recovery, then the messages would move from deletion folder to the purges folder After running the following script,
    Search-Mailbox dave -searchdumpsteronly
    -deletecontent
    so my question is how to delete the messages in the purges folder with some script or retention policy?
    Please click the Mark as Answer button if a post solves your problem!

    Thank you all,
    As the mailbox is enabled single item recovery.
    I just want to make the items neither in deletion folder, nor in purges folder.
    So I think there are two ways to achieve this.
    Method 1,disabled the single item recovery. then delete the items in deletion folder ,so it wouldn't enter to the purges folder, it just deleted permanently. then enable the single item recovery
    Method 2,delete the items in deletion folder,then the messages move to the purges folder, then delete the messages in purges folder.
    the Method 1 is not so good ,as it need to disable the single item recovery firstly, then enable  single item recovery .
    So I want to use the Method 2

  • How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report

    Hi,
    I've been trying to customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report.
    First i followed the instructions in Note:183131.1 -
    How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report
    But of course the OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL in this solution did not work (in a portlet) and i found the metalink document 228620.1 which described how to fix it.
    So i followed the "fix" in the document above and now my output is,..
    "Portlet 38,70711 responded with content-type text/plain when the client was requesting content-type text/html"
    So i search in Metalink for the above and come up with,...
    Bug 3548276 PORTLET X,Y RESPONDED WITH CONTENT-TYPE TEXT/PLAIN INSTEAD OF TEXT/HTML
    And i've read it and read it and read it and read it and can't make heads or tails of what it's saying.
    Every "solution" seems to cause another problem that i have to fix. And all i want to do is customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report. Please,...does anyone know how to do this?

    My guess is that it only shows the number of rows it has retrieved. I believe the defailt is for it to only retrieve 50 rows and as you page through your report it retrieves more. So this would just tell you how many rows was retireved, but probably not how many rows the report would contain if you pages to the end. Oracle doesn't really have a notion of total number of rows until the whole result set has been materialized.
