I recently upgraded to iOS7 on my iPhone 4s.  My pop mail account is downloading all of the emails on my server instead of allowing me to specify how many I want to see.  How do I set that now?

I now have 12,000 unread messages on my iPhone 4s.  it used to be that i could specify how many it would download.  That option seems to be missing.  I tried edit the emails, selecting them all and then marking them as read.  Their status updated (no blue dot), but the mail app still lists those emails as unread.  It's a little disorienting to see a red number on my mail app indicating i have over 12,000 unread emails.  Any help would be appreciated.

Other is usually around 1 GB...
A  ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup...
But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

  • Recently upgraded to ios7 and can't seem to get any push notification on all of the apps

    i recently updated my iphone 5 from ios 6 to ios7 and all of a sudden stopped getting push notification from all of my apps. The same message keeps on popping out like "connect to itunes to use the push notification center" although i did as asked, the message and problem still exists.
    when connected to the itunes, it says that my computer is not authorized
    Need all the guidance i can get plzzzz

    Posting this as it took me forever to find the fix.  No one with my carrier, Apple etc. seemed to know of the fix or for that matter even recognize that it was an issue. Hopefully this will help someone else.  This is for Exchange 2010
    Log on to the Exchange server hosting OWA
    start run cmd, right click on the cmd and choose run as adminsitrator
    cd C:\Windows\System32\inetsrv\
    appcmd.exe set config -section:system.webServer/serverRuntime /uploadReadAheadSize:"16000000" /commit:apphost
    appcmd.exe set config "Default Web Site" -section:system.webServer/serverRuntime /uploadReadAheadSize:"16000000" /commit:apphost
    restart IIS
    Note that 1600000 should be the size of the allowed email in bytes.

  • Just set up an email account on new iPhone. How do I stop it wanti g to download all 4,000  emails off my server and just download new emails?

    Just set up an email account on new iPhone. How do I stop it wanti g to download all 4,000  emails off my server and just download new emails?

    You can go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars, and set your mail to only download the last 50.
    When you actually set upthe account, you can go into any available advanced settings and see if that can be set to new mail only. Unfortunately, every mail provider had slightly different things they'll allow you to tweak, so you just have to play to see what you can do.
    For example, when I set up my Yahoo, I have different things I can tweak than I do on my Hotmail account, so some accounts allow more ability to tweak than others.

  • How can I set up an email where the mail account is totally different to the email address?

    The email account (and password related to it) is in the form "xxxxxx.ndonet.com." The email address is "xxxxxx.ndirect.co.uk." There don't seem to be many email clients that allow this and at present I am having to use Pegasus. I have tried manual configuration in Thunderbird but without success. Is it possible?
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks to you both for your suggestions. It is very helpful.
    I have solved one problem but have one remaining. I can now send mails having configured TB with the ISP's pop3.hosts.co.uk and port 995. This is working fine. Sending is still a problem. As I am currently in France I cannot test smtp.hosts.co.uk (587) directly. I usually use smtp.orange.fr. Under Pegasus this is set using Server TCP/IP port = 25 and Timeout = 15 seconds, which works every time. When I try TB with either 25 or 587, I get an error "login to stmp.orange.fr failed" and a further message "for unknown reason" although sometimes it reports "authentication failed".
    I am a bit out of my depth here and would be grateful for further suggestions. Thanks.

  • I have created a folder in "Bookmarks Toolbar" and I want to open all sites saved into the folder into separate window, instead of opening them into tabs, how do i do that?

    I want to open multiple sites in NEW firefox window, as soon as I click on the folder from "Toolbar menu". I can see a option there "Open all in tabs". Is it possible to set one more option "Open all in new windows"

    THANK YOU! So easy, now I feel stupid. ;)
    Sorry, Firefox 4.0 is driving me nuts in many ways, this is just one of them.

  • A large number of songs, my kids bought under an account that nobody knows the password to.  The account name I know, but the email address associated with it is no longer available.  How do I authorize the songs to play on this new computer.

    A large number of songs were bough under an itunes account that we no longer have the password for nor access to the old associated email address.  I know the account name but it no longer exists.  How do I now authorize these songs to play on this new computer.  I do know my current itunes account information.

    It's not a good idea to post your email address on public forums, I've asked the hosts to remove them.
    All content is tied to the account that downloaded them, and you can't currently transfer them to a different account. If you don't know the password to that account then you can try getting it reset via this page http://iforgot.apple.com . If you can't get it done that way then you can try getting access to the account by contacting iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. If you get access to it you can then change the primary email account on it to one that you have access to : http://appleid.apple.com

  • I can't see any animated wallpapers after upgrade of ios7 on my iphone 5, only my wallpaper when I started the upgrade process

    I can't see any animated wallpapers after upgrade of ios7 on my iphone 5, only my default wallpaper selected when I started the upgrade process. Can I download the default animated wallpaper of ios 7?
    thank you
    ps. I'm apologize for my bad english language

    A different approach would be to:
    1.  Delete the contents of the library on the desktop Window 7 computer;
    2.  Turn off iTunes Match;
    3.  Copy the contents of the Music folder from the working Windows 7 computer to the desktop Music folder;
    4.  Import the new contents of the Desktop music folder into the library;
    5.  Close / restart the iTunes client and confirm that the library has all the Songs as anticipated;
    6.  Turn on the iTunes Match service and allow it to run to completion.
    This is a proven process on my Windows 7 computers and works very well.

  • I recently upgraded to ios7 and now my PC is not recognizing my iphone

    I am having several problems.  I recently upgraded to ios7 and now my PC (Windows 7) is not recognizing my iphone.  1) I am getting an error message when itunes opens: "Itunes could not connect to the iphone because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iphone before it can be used with itunes."  How did it get locked and how do I unlock it without losing my data?  What do they mean by passcode?  I don't have a 4-number code to get into my iphone activated.  In fact, I've never had a passcode.
    2) I cannot download my photos from my iphone onto my computer because my computer doesn't recognize my iphone.  In other words, my iphone does not show up on my computer (no iphone icon, no DCIM folder). 
    3) This is a separate issue but it is also very confusing: I went online to check my iCloud and I cannot see any data (icloud.com).  But I know that I set up iCloud when I upgraded to ios7 and it backs up my data every night. What am I doing wrong, am I unable to see my data and photos?
    Why is this happening?  It was bad enough that when I upgraded to ios7, I lost my Notes - I have no idea why they didn't return.  But now essentially my iphone is not recognized when connected to my computer and this is very frustrating.  I have read numerous previous postings regarding downloading photos onto the PC and regarding this passcode error and cannot find a resolution, so I would appreciate any help.

    No problem!

    I usually use Ubuntu, and am not aware of HTML5 being the default for Flash videos on Windows.
    Is it more likely you have chosen an option on the YouTube website to use HTML5. I think this page offers support and includes an option to toggle HTML5 or FlashPlayer.

  • Since the recent upgrade lost my bookmarks and abIlity to hear sound on videos.How do I fix that NOW!

    Since the recent upgrade I lost my bookmarks and ability to hear sound on videos. First I lost VIDEO then thought it was fixed only to find I had no SOUND when the video opened.How do I fix that NOW!
    I have lost a week fiddling with reinstalling and suggested fixes to no avail. I have important bookmarks used in project research and study plans . Can I go back to my original last working version?
    NEED HELP ASAP
    THIS IS A VERY DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE WITH WHAT I THOUGHT IS A GOOD BROWSER - NOT SO SURE ANYMORE!!!

    Hi movision,
    Sorry you are having problems with lost bookmarks. I note you had problems last year [/questions/851481] and hopefully this time you will have been routinely making your own backups of bookmarks.
    * see [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]]
    So two steps
    # Immediately make a backup of your firefox profile <br/> (That ensures any auto bookmarks are preserved). IMPORTANT do this first, restoring bookmarks overwrites existing bookmarks. Put the restored files somewhere safe such as your Windows desktop.
    # Did you create any bookmark backups, if so the linked article above explains how to restore those bookmarks
    You may also be interested in using Firefox sync, if you have a second device,as it allows you to sync bookmarks on the other device; and they are effectively then backed up.
