I can't seem to find how to save sent emails on my hard drive

I've created a folder on a partition, but when I go to account settings to save copies there, it only shows a trash bin.

You're trying to do two things at once here.
Thunderbird saves its messages in its own message store. It doesn't use arbitrary folders on the HDD. If that's where you want messages, outside of Thunderbird, you'll need to explicitly export them. This add-on:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
may be useful in doing this.
However, if you wish to move your message store (and much else) to a different location, look at moving the Thunderbird profile.

  • How to archive "sent" mail to external hard drive

    Accumulated and overload of "sent" mail and would like to archive them all  (including attachments) on my external hard drive. Would someone give me the steps to do this, as a regular archiving procedure, as done with a mailbox, did not work.  Thank you.

    You can navigate to your Sent (mailbox) folder and drag and drop it to another drive.
    First remember how many messages there are in the Sent folder.
    Then navigate as follows to get to the folder:
    Users / yourself / Library / Mail.
    At this point you will see a number of folders. Look for the one that identifies your service. Something like: POP-yourname, ....
    In that folder look for Sent Messages.mbox. In there look for a folder called messages. That's where all the sent messages reside. Verify the number of messages there agrees with the number you originally noted. That is to confirm you have indeed found the correct folder.
    This, like any other folder, can be copied to an external drive, or whatever.
    The problem with this process is that each time you do it, you will be copying over a bunch of mails that have already been copied.
    Note that all of the above is on the assumption that you are running OS 10.6.8.

  • How to save e-mails on the hard drive

    How to save my e-mails on the memory of my MacBook Air ?

    If you are using a POP account (and it sounds like you are) follow these insructions to keep a copy of mail on the server as well as locally.
    Click on the Mail menu and choose Preferences,
    Click on the Accounts icon, and select your email account on the left side,
    Go to the tab called Advanced, and change the settings of the checkbox called Remove copy from server after retrieving a message:
    if that checkbox is UNchecked, then all your messages will always stay on the server
    if that checkbox is checked, then the messages will only stay on the server as long as specified in the drop-down box underneath
    if that checkbox is checked and the drop-down box is set to Right Away, then your account will behave as a regular POP3 account (the messages will be downloaded to your computer and then removed from the server right away)
    Click OK to confirm

  • I have set up an iCloud email account in my name on my iPad and wish to set one up for my husband in his name. I can't seem to find how to do this. Am I only allowed one email address? If not can someone talk me through this. Thanks

    I wish to set up an alias address on my iPad. My iCloud address has already been established and I can find no way to get into my account to add any alias.

    You can create up to 3 alias addresses but you have to do this on icloud.com from your computer browser.  This article explains how: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2622.  Also, incoming email to an alias address will go to your current iCloud inbox so it really isn't a separate account; just a different email address for the same account. 
    Each iCloud account only has a single iCloud email account.  If you really want to set up another, you would need to add a secondary iCloud account by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud, then entering a different Apple ID to create the account.  You can then turn on Mail to create the new account.  Mail in secondary accounts, however, is fetch email, not push (which is only supported in the primary account).

  • HT1338 I have Microsoft for Mac 2011 on my OSX Lion. I want to take advantage of Word Art and be able to flip text to print on fabric. Can't seem to find how to do this... Help, please!

    I need to make t shirts for a family reunion.  I cannot reverse the text (so the letter will print on a T shirt correctly). I have tried everything including u-tube videos. I could swear I have seen graphics (such as various banners on Word Art as shown on u tube videos) on one of my toolbars but cannot locate them now (would like to use them also).
    Is anyone familiar with Microsoft for Mac 2011?  I also have an HP Photosmart printer that should be able to reverse print but that too is defeating me but I don't give up...
    Thanks for any suggestions!

    For any object (photo, WordArt, etc.), right click on the object and choose Format Shape. Choose 3-D Rotation in the left column. In the X field, type 180 and press tab. Click OK to accept the change. Here, I reversed some WordArt text.

  • Can I configure my HP dv7-4165dx to boot from the second hard drive?

    I have had an HP dv7-4165dx for about 20 months now. About 10 months in, the original hard drive burned up because of the placement directly under the GPU (bottom left corner, left of the touchpad and below the keys), which gets hot enough on the top side to make your hand uncomfortable. The symptoms included blue screens, troubles on startups, and finally a system message on boot that said the drive was damaged. Since it was under warrantee, I carried it to Best Buy to have the drive replaced, which took nearly 2.5 months.
    Now, at about 20 months, I am facing the beginning of the exact same symptoms. I noticed that there was a second hard drive bay, away from the GPU, so I purchased the wire needed to use that bay. Now it tells me that there is no bootable disc installed (the hard disk test, in system diagnostics, knows it is there) . I am sure I can swap the drive back to the original bay and be fine but that puts me out $75 for the kit from HP (yeah, I know I may have to eat that if there is no way), but far more importantly it means that I will have another burned out drive (losing everything, again) within a month or two.
    I have looked but I can't seem to find any way to tell it boot from that drive. Is there a way, or am I just out of look due to a poor design? It's been a great machine, except for this issue.
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately there is no option to be able to boot from the HDD in the 2nd bay in any of the dv7 series - sorry for the bad news.

  • How do you save your DVD to your Hard Drive, and then convert to iPod?

    Hello everyone, I was wondering how you save your DVD to your hard drive and then convert it to the iPod Video.
    Please respond.
    P.S.
    I know that it's been discussed all the time, but none of the posts are useful for me.

    Hi,
    The best option is to pull the card out and plug to your computer UNLESS your computer does not have a card reader. If your computer did not have a card reader, you need to map the cardreader on your printer to your network using the following method:

  • I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store. How do I "log out"

    I created a new Apple ID for iCloud on my iPhone, but I can't seem to find a way to "sign out" or "log out" of that Apple ID (for iCloud) to sign in with another Apple ID. The only account login I could change was the Store.
    How do I "log out" or "sign out" of iCloud on my iPhone? There is an option to delete the account, but I just want to log off. I want to keep the account name for future use.

    It looks like the article below has the information you are looking for.
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Note:   If you delete your iCloud account, iCloud will no longer back up your iOS data. You can still back up your device in iTunes (for more information, open iTunes and choose iTunes > Help). 
    On your Mac, open iCloud preferences, then click Sign Out.
    If your Mac has OS X v10.7.5 and you turn off iCloud, your calendar information and reminders aren’t stored locally in iCal. If you want to retain your calendar and reminder information, you need to back it up before turning off iCloud. For more information, see the Apple Support article iCloud: Calendar & reminder data removed from Calendar and Reminders or iCal when disabling iCloud Calendar.
    On your Windows computer, open the iCloud Control Panel, then click Sign Out.
    Note:   If you turned on automatic download of music, app, or book purchases (in iTunes preferences or in Settings on your iOS device), your iTunes purchases are still downloaded to your devices.
    Set up iCloud on your devices

On it, there is a selectable entry to Show Library Folder. Once this is selected, the Library folder will appear. Now, follow the instructions in my May 6 post.

    How do I update my iPad 2 to iOS 5, I tried going to settings,general ,software update but I can't seem to find the software update button pls help :)

    Go to Settings > General > About and see what iOS version you are running.  If it is lower than 5, you won't find the software update button.  It was added when iOS 5 came out.  The current iOS is 5.1.1.  To update to the current OS, you'll need to connect to the computer you sync with (this is important - do not connect to a computer you do not sync with as you will lose you apps) and update the software in iTunes.  Once you have updated to the 5.1.1, the software update button will be in Settings going forward.  Make sure you have a lot of time.  Updating from below 5 to 5 or higher is a somewhat lengthy process.
