I'm using gmail and lately new emails are showing up in my drafts box.  How do I keep that from happening?

I'm using gmail on the latest version of OS X.  New emails keep showing up in my drafts mailbox along with my inbox.  How do I correct this?  Thanks for your help.

If it's incoming messages that you don't create, then check in Mail to make sure no rules are created to move messages to the draft folder.
Unchecking storing drafts messages on the server should tell you if the problem is originating from the computer. If it stops on the computer and still happens in the IMAP draft folder under the gmail folder (you can check the website also), then it will be a setting or filter action at the gmail website.
If messages still arrive in the draft folder (which will now be a local folder), then you will know that the computer is causing the problem. Then we can figure what's causing the problem.

  • Since upgrading to FF v4, every time I open a "new window", all other instances of FF windows open, how can I keep this from happening?

    Since I started using FireFox version 4, every time I open a "new window", all other instances of FireFox windows open up. This is annoying as it often covers up instances I am currently using with instances that I don't wish to use right now. I can't seem to find a way to keep this behavior from occurring.

    Try go to '''about:config''' search for '''browser.startup.homepage''' change its value to:
    '''about:home''' - default page<br>
    '''about:blank''' - blank page<br>
    '''url''' - a page that you want

  • I delete e-mail regularly and empty the trash bin. Today the whole last 2 months reapperae in the inbox. Why and how to I keep that from happening?

    I delete e-mail regulary, put iit n the trash and empty the trash bin. Today all of the last two months incoming mail reappered in the inbox. Why, and how do I avoid this?

    This is standard guidance, but maybe it will help...
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove your Yahoo cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    This will open a dialog where you can remove the individual cookies.
    Then try reloading the page and logging in again. Does it work any better?

  • When someone texts my email address it no longers shows up as an email, only a imessage, how do I stop that from happening?

    when someone texts my email address it no longers shows up as an email in my inbox, only as a imessage, how do I stop that from happening?  I do not use imessage at all.

    This is not something on your end.  If they send an iMessage it will arrive as an iMessage, if the send an email it will arrive as an email.
    THey are sepearate services that cannot be mixed up.
    Tell them to send you an email, rather than an iMessage.
    If they are using the messages App it will always arrive as a Message.

  • After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    After installing the new Yosemite OS on my iMac I can no longer send email. I can receive email, but not send. I use gmail and can send email on the gmail (google) site, but not on "mail" on my iMac. Any others with this problem? What should we do?

    My gmail, which is correctly configured for Mail with gmail SMTP and Google IMAP, works for awhile on Mail, which I leave open while working on other applications. But several times a day I get msg from Google: "We recently blocked a sign-in attempt to your Google Account" . . . and requiring me to verify my account details, re-enter passwords, confirm security settings (or change them from "disable" to "enable less secure methods" and so on). In Mail I also have tried "taking all accounts online", and re-entering my gmail password inside Mail account settings. These steps successfully re-set comms between gmail and Mail ... for awhile, then it happens again. Enough occurrences over a work day that I just quit Mail and revert to accessing gmail directly. Apple Care advisor and an Apple knowledge base article say that Apple can't deal with this, as gmail is third-party app, and they refer me to gmail, and so far I've found nothing helpful there.
    From today I also have several instances of a window saying "Mail has unexpectedly closed" and asking me to Re-open it.
    I also use Yahoo mail, which stops working with Mac Mail at the same time as gmail, but I do not receive notices to re-verify from Yahoo.
    I recently upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite. The Mail problem happened occasionally with Mavericks but is far more frequent with Yosemite.

    When using my new nano 7 with nike+, my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run/workout for over 30 minutes.  It also cancels/deletes that run/workout.  This has happened several times.  How can I keep this from happening?

    If possible I would arrange for a good service center to go over it. Hopefully they have a variety of parts in stock. They can test and verify all is working. The previous attempts are based on guesses by the person at the other end of the phone without diagnostic tests to assess the culprit. It is extremely unlikely for a webcam to fail & for it & a Mic to fail together should be an indicator to a good technician it is something else. EG Motherboard
    Take it to a servicing dealer and wait for it.

  • Someone is accessing my itunes account using my apple id and password. How do I stop this? I have changed my apple id and password, will that be sufficient? How do I keep this from happening? No one knows my id and password, my kids have their own.

    I have an Iphone 4s. I noticed today that someone has been downloading music using my apple id and password. No one knows my id or password. Not even my children. How can I stop them from using it? How can I keep it from happening again?

    Changing your password should be sufficient, that should be required to be entered to download anything from the store.
    In case it's the new U2 album that you are referring to, then that was given to free to everyone last month - you can remove the album if you don't want it on your account : http://itunes.com/soi-remove

  • When I restored my iphone 4 all my deleted emails were back. like 4000 of them. How do I stop this from happening? Thanks

    I recently restored my iphone 4 when it froze up and when the restore was done, I had over 4000 emails in my inbox. All my deleted messages came back. How do I stop that from happening? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

    You have POP mail account.   That's how those types of email accounts work.
    You want an IMAP type of account, where if you delete on phone, it will also delete on server.   Should you ever restore your device again it will only update the mail that hasn't been deleted.
    You didn't say which email service you use, but try contacting them to see if they offer IMAP.  Or you can switch.

  • Every once in a while, letters stop working on my keyboard. I have to restart to get them to work again. Happens about once a week. Why and how do I keep this from Happening?

    Every once in a while, letters stop working on my keyboard. I have to restart to get them to work again. Happens about once a week. Why and how do I keep this from Happening? An example is: I try to type Super Excited and the U, E and P won't work. But once I restart, all the letters work.

    It could be an accumulation of all sorts of bits of info and depending on the last time you cleared the system cache either manually or via a factory reset on that phone you might find a difference there after doing so with many other system caches.
    Clearing the application cache removes temporary files and frees up memory - your personal settings or information remain intact.
    Be sure you clear only the application cache and not the application data.
    From the home screen, tap Apps.
    Scroll to and tap Settings.
    Tap More.
    Tap Application manager.
    Swipe left to view the All tab.
    Scroll to and tap an application.
    Tap Clear cache.
    You've now cleared the application cache.

  • When I do a search (for anything), the browser redirects me to a new page, usually an advertisement. How do I keep this from happening?

    My home page opens just fine. When I type a search topic in the search box, it goes to the list of possible websites. But when I click on any of those choices, the browser is automatically redirecting my to a different page (usually an advertisement). How do I keep this from happening any more? I am extremely frustrated...

    Do a malware check with some malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />
