HT201320 How do I limit the number of emails in ios7? On older software I could limit mail to 50 or so.

I have thousands of email in my Verizon account. Now that I've upgraded to ios7, they're all stored on my phone and it keeps locking up. In older versions of the software I could limit the number of emails on my phone. I can't find that setting in ios7. Any ideals?

Thanks, but issue of pain for me is on opposite side, as per thread above:
I do not want so many emails stored on iPad storage.
All I want to be able to limit emails stored to, say, last 3 days.
If older emails are available available only via search on server , I am fine that.
With this change in iOS7 Apple undertook shameless effort to press users to buy more expensive higher strife devices, and for sooner depreciation of previous line of models.

  • HT201320 How do I change the number of email messages I can view in the new iOS.

    I have the new IOS on my phone and can't find the setting that allows me to change the number of email messages I can view. Anyone know?

    You should have 200 undos, and can verify this in the bottom left flyout >> show >> number of undos (this show shows many undos you have cahced, not your max amount, will max out at 200)
    You can try changing the 200 in the illustrator preferences, by using a text editor, saving and then booting illustrator. Not sure this is a great idea, as 200 should be plenty, but let us know your results if you try.
    /undoDepth 5
    /maxUndoDepth 200
    Older versions of Illustrator let you change this in the preferences, but they must have decied that hitting CMD Z more than 200 times is not a good way to spend your afternoon.

    That issue can be caused by the FastestFox extension.
    * FastestFox Options > General, uncheck "Enhance Awesomebar"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • How do you regulate the number of emails that are kept on your phone before they are deleted?

    HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE NUMBER OF EMAILS THAT ARE KEPT ON YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU DELETE THEM?

    Your carrier sets this by time, not the number of "rings" since different ring tones take different times/ring.  The typical setting is 30 seconds, sometimes up to 40 seconds.  Contact your carrier to shorten it.

  • How do I change the number of emails in my inbox with ios 7

    I upgraded to ios7 and now I have soooo many emails loaded. I feel like that may be part of the cause of my battery drain.  Do I seriously have to delete all these emails or is there a way to limit the number of emails in my inbox?  All I have to say is "thank goodness I didn't connect to my work email, we would be talking thousands of emails".

    This is no longer an option.

  • How can I restrict the number of emails in iOS 7?

    In the previous versions of iOS you could indicate how much emails you wanted to store on your iPhone. Now in iOS 7 that option is gone.
    I don't want to clogg my iPhone whit all my emails.
    What can I do to restrict the number of emails?

    Other than changing to an IMAP or Exchange account, you can't. The feature you're referring to was removed in iOS 7.0.

  • How do you show the number of emails in Mail folders?

    Hi,
    I'm a little lost with the new Mail format.
    It was really helpful for me to know the number of emails that were in my Mail folders - it used to tell me at the top. But since I upgraded to Yosemite, I don't see that as an option. Can someone tell me - is there a way to make this feature come back?
    Thank you!
    Bob

    I've never seen "1 of XX" in OS X that I can recall. Often, iOS will show that.
    In OS X, typically, you'll see the number of messages in the titlebar (i.e. Unread (22 messages)). However, there seems to be an issue that if you view a smart folder, when you go back to the Inbox, you don't see the number of messages anymore. If you quit and restart Mail, the number appears. Perhaps that's what you're seeing?

  • HT1694 How do I reduce the number of emails in my iPhone inbox?

    In the previous iOS I was able to choose the number of days I could sync mail back to. Since the update, I have years worth of emails synced on my phone. Any clues how to reduce this number?

    This is no longer an option.

  • TS3899 How do you change the number of emails displayed on ios7?

    Since I have upgraded my phone to ios7 my phone doesn't display as many emails as it used to. How do I change the settings so that my phone retains more messages?

    You cannot change that, it is not user programmable. That is handled by your carrier, and it is not based on the number of rings, it is based on time. Call your carrier and see if they can extend the time for you. They may not be able to do this.

  • How do I restrict the number of emails that my iphone downloads on ios7

    On ios6 I had my mail set up to only download 25 messages per box to my iphone.  I have updated to ios7 today and this option has disappeared from the settings menu and now my phone has downloaded more then the 25 that I want it to.
    How can I specify that I just want the 25??
    Thanks.

    No there isn't.
    Have the emails been read via webmail access using a browser on your computer or with an email client on your computer if both email accounts are being accessed with an email client on your computer?
    With that many unread emails on the iPhone, that sounds like one or both email accounts were created as a POP account. When creating an existing email account as a POP account with an email client on a computer or on a device such as the iPhone, all existing received emails at the incoming mail server that remain on the server are downloaded as new and unread emails.
    If the accounts were created as an IMAP account and all emails have been read elsewhere, they would not be available on the iPhone as unread emails since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server.

  • In Mail 2.1.3 how do I reduce the number of emails?

    Hi,
    I hope this is the right discussion group for a question about Apple Mail. I didn't see Mail in the list of discussion topics, but I see that Mail is an application because it's in my application folder.
    I have over a thousand emails in my inbox and in sent mail. I've been told that this can affect the performance of Mail and that I need to get rid of a lot of emails.
    In Entourage there was a backup or export function. I don't see anything like that in Mail. Also, I'm well along creating and using Smart Mailboxes and it seems to me that if I get rid of emails in inbox and sent mail that they'll drop out of the Smart Mailboxes.
    I do notice Mail running slower than before.
    What to do? How to do it?
    Thanks for your input,
    Rafael

    Hi BDAqua,
    What do you mean "...one mailbox of about 20." 20 what?
    IMAP.
    Yes. I'd like to know how to back them up. They won't be available to Mail Smart Mailboxes either, will they? At least they'll be there in case of a crash. I use Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC http://www.bombich.com/index.html) and make incremental backups. My entire hard disk is backed up. But Safari Bookmarks, for instance, don't get backed up in their latest, daily version unless I've done Safari>File>Export Bookmarks to a folder. Then CCC picks up that folder. Same with mail, CCC back doesn't pick up anything. A friend mentioned .mbox.
    As I said, I'm creating many smart mailboxes and folders. What's to keep all the work I'm doing in setting up the smart mailboxes from disappearing in the event of a crash? Are the smart mailboxes able to be backed up?
    Would you remind me please: I was told a while back that to quote from a post, as you did above, to "just prefix it with a >". I did that successfully once, but I tried it here and couldn't remember where to put the prefix, I mean, in your message, or in your message below here in "Replying To:".
    It's getting late. I better leave it at that.
    Thanks,
    Rafael
    PS My Mail seemed to be moving slowly, expecially noticeable when clicking on 'Inbox' then waiting for the window to fill up. Maybe it's just the way it is.
    I didn't get back to you sooner because I didn't set up my preferences here correctly in order to get emailed when there is a reply.

  • How to I get the number of emails to display in the inbox on my iphone 5 with iOS 7

    Respond to question.

    Yeah, I got fat fingers and have jammed into the most bottom part that the screen will let me touch with the case on and stilll can not get it to work.
    Again works fine with the case off and I start the swipe up off the illuminated part of the screen and it works every time. Just does not work with the case on to get the Control Center swipe to work.
    Not a great big deal but it is a feature that would be nice to have with my favorite Otterbox Defender Case.
