HT1277 E-mails on an old account, but I can't see them !

Hi,
I recently changed ISP's and for a time kept both accounts, new and old, running on Mail, so I could pick and choose which of the senders I wanted to advise of my new address and get rid of the SPAM for a while. Incidentally, the old account was with Orange and the new one is with Sky.
I eventually deleted the old account, I can't remember exactly how, but now, everytime I go into Mail, I seem to be getting all of the mails that would have gone to my old account. BUT, whilst I can see them being counted in, I cannot see them anywhere within Mail! For example, I went in the other day and found I was about to receive 86 mails. However, only 4 turned up on the new and now only account. Where do the rest go? Any ideas please?
Thanks

Not sure what you mean by that. Its either runing as a POP account, or an Exchange account. can't be both, unless you mean that your PC mail application is exchange.
Assuming the account is POP, it is quite possible the email client on your PC is removing the emails from the server when you download them on it.
If you are going to manage email on more than one device, I suggest you consider moving to an IMAP account. Using POP for this is quite frankly more trouble than it is worth.

  • I can receive mail on my mac account, but I can't send mail. What should I do?

    I can receive mail on my mac account, but I can't send mail.  What should I do?

    Hello, sounds like you haven't switched to iCloud yet, the old dot Mac & MobileMe servers are going away or gone for most already.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria:  8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers.  If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message.  Go to   http://appleid.apple.com         then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.

  • TS3899 I can send emails but I can't see them in sent mail

    I am sending emails and they are received but I can't see them in my sent mail - I'm sure it's a settings issue but not sure how to change it?

    Hi giradifco62,
    I understand your iPad Air has an email account set up that is able to send email but it is not receiving incoming mail. Depending on the type of account you have, the incoming server may either be a POP or IMAP server and this is more than likely where the issue is. You did find a good article for troubleshooting Mail on the iPad.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
    If you have gone through all of these steps including deleting and re-adding the account as you say, I would verify the POP or IMAP settings with your provider and make sure they are correct. The following webpage is also a fantastic source for server information.

    Thanks for reaching out,

  • HT203167 Hi, I've purchased a few films from itunes (and they are listed as Purchased in my account), but I can't find them on my computer or on my itunes account, and itunes wants me to pay for them again. How do I get around this?

    Hi, I've purchased a few films from itunes (and they are listed as Purchased in my account), but I can't find them on my computer or my itunes account, and itunes wants me to pay for them again. How do I get around this? I've tried all the suggestions, and it's hugely frustrating.

    If you are in the UK, and the film studio allows re-downloading, and you are signed in with the same account that you bought them with, then they might show under the Purchased link under Quinklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page for re-downloading - if they don't show then check to see if they are hidden (hiding and unhiding).
    But you should be keeping and maintaining your own backup of your downloads and noy rely on being able to re-download any item as they are occasionally removed from the store by the content provider (film studio, tv company, record company etc).

  • My pictures are there but i can't see them help!!!

    I need help i have iphoto 4 and something happened where it has the pictures there but i can't see them. Its 500 pictures in my libary but they are all blank put the outline of the picture and its shape. i imported new pictures and they show up but not my old ones please let me know what i did or how i can get them back also under photo library i have a sub folder titled recovered photos and recovered photos 1 but i don't have any options on how to recover them or get them back please help me i am very worried!
    thanks lisa

    Here's a way to possibly preserve some of the roll information while importing the old library into a new one. With iPhoto 4 you have to remove the thumbnail files from the source library because V4 will import them as normal files and really mess up the new library. Here's how to go about it.
    1 - duplicate the current iPhoto Library folder - (Command-D)
    2 - run a search on just that folder as follows:
    TIGER:
    a. open the folder and type Command-F
    b. set Kind is Images and Size is less than 100KB.
    PANTER:
    a. select the old iPhoto Library folder and type Command-F
    b. set the search criteria to: Name contains "jpg" and Size is less than 100KB.
    This will find all of the thumbnail files in your library.
    3. select them all in the Search Results window and drag to the trash.
    4 - open iPhoto with the Option key depressed and, when asked, create a new library.
    5 - select the File->Import menu option. Go to the old library folder that you just cleaned out and select it. Click on Import.
    That will import just your full size photos and keep some of the roll organization. You will also have the original files of those you edited previously in there. You may want to go thru and get rid of the original or edited version as you see fit.
    Once you're satisfied you've go all of your photos safely in the new library you can delete the old one and the duplicate of it that you made.
    Hope this has been of some help. Good luck.

  • After updating my ipad2 to ios6 my favorite chat room is not working. They can see me but I can't see them.

    Before I updated everything worked fine.  This is thru safari on the full version of a website.  Now after I enter my chat room and everyone can see me and what I type but I can't see them.  I was on the phone with apple.  1st call, they had me empty cookies and cache, that didn't work. I did a hard reset? held the off button and the round button.  that didn't work, but I was able to see one persons "hi" post.  2nd call they had me do a reset, thru the general in settings(I was also transferred to a supervisor which makes me think that I am the only one with this problem).  I was able to see 5 people say hi, but still unable to see them after the intial. 
    I use to see the little pinwheel at the top left hand side next to ipad and the signal strength pinwheel all the time but now I don't see it doing that. While in the chat.
    Any ideas.  The supervisor sorta suggested tap-a-talk.  But I didn't want to spend the money if I dont have to and Im not sure it would fix this..
    I did notify the website the chat room is thru so they know also, but no answers yet.

    Hi
    Have you set the Quicktime settings, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed set what you get from your ISP go no higher then 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
    In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.

    I tried to Skype somebody and they can see me but I can't see them and I can't figure out why?

    I'll guess that you're upgrading from Snow Leopard? You should be able to start using your original install dvd by inserting the disc and restarting while holding the C key. Run Disk Utility from your install disc  and try to repair the drive. Then try the upgrade again.

  • Skype; They can see me but I can't see them.

    I've been communicating with others on Skype that are on PC. In all cases they can see me but I can't see them. Any solutions?

    Hi, Pharaoh.
    Well, I know this seems obvious but, try checking your video privacy preferences and see if everything is ok. You could also ask your mates to do the same with their machines.
    Other thing you could do is to install the latest version of Skype that was released last Wednesday. The link is here http://www.skype.com/intl/en/download/skype/macosx/ .
    Ask your mates which version they use as well.
    I've been using Skype for a quite while and I have absolutely NO issues with Mac/Win videoconferencing.
    I hope you manage to fix that.
    Cheers,
    JP

  • My pictures are there but i can't see them.

    I went on iphoto to put on some picutres from my digital camera and the pics went on the computer fine but as i was editing the pics iphoto began to work really really slow. so i restarted and went back on but it's was still really really slow. now besides the fact that it's slow, when the program does show up my pics are there but i can't see them, all there is, is the outline of the box where the pics are but no pictures. i'm not sure if i got a bad file or a bug. so if anyone can help me out that would be great.

    Hi Ryan,
    If you can give more information it would be great.
    What kind of camera do you have?
    What version of iPhoto are you running?
    How much free space is on your HD?
    You can try a rebuild to see if that might help. Get back with results.
    Try this:
    Before doing a rebuild make sure iPhoto's trash bin is emptied. You can do this by control clicking on the trash bin, or from the menu bar under iPhoto.
    Close iPhoto
    Duplicate the iPhoto Library folder
    Drag the duplicate to the desktop (hopefully you have enough room on your hard drive for the duplicate.)
    Launch iPhoto holding down the Command and Option keys until you see the rebuild options screen.
    Choose the first three options. If you were missing photos in your library, also choose the last option. Be advised that you will get a roll of orphaned photos and it might be quite huge. Most of them will already be in your iPhoto library, but use caution when deleting anything from this roll until you are sure the photos are still in your library in another place. It might be a good idea to share/export this roll of photos just in case you need to import them again.
    Back to the rebuild, depending on the size of your library it might take some time. When it is done, hopefully your photos will be there.
    You might see some unexpected results as I did when I did a rebuild. Photos had been moved to wrong dates, video clips had lost their duration info and some were even orphaned from the jpg pointer file. It took me some time to straighten it out again.
    This is the reason to make a duplicate before you rebuild, in case you do not like the result. If you don't like the result, close iPhoto, then delete the rebuilt library and drag the duplicate back into the Pictures folder making sure the name is iPhoto Library. Launch iPhoto and it should open the library in the Pictures folder.
    iPhoto 4 or later: Rebuilding the iPhoto Library
