I want to limit the number of emails displayed and kept on my iphone.  There used to be a setting to limit but it appears to be gone in 7.0

With the upgrade to this horrible 7.0 ios I find that now all 22K plus of emails from my Gmail account are on my phone.  How do I change the setting so only 50 or 100 are displayed?  This option seems to be removed. 

Verizon is not doing that it is the mail that is doing that.
Check your device settings for email and read the owners manual as to how to set up mail to download. How you want it, leave on server, etc.
Good Luck

  • Hi, how can I limit the number of emails I can see on my iPhone 5. Every time in delete one and older email gets added from my live.co.uk account (where I want to keep my 2500 emails) I just don't want many on my phone. Thanks

    You can't. Why on earth would you attempt to manage 2500 emails with setting up a folder structure or some means of doing so? Simply keeping them in an single inbox is not realistic, no matter what email client you use.

  • How do i limit the number of emails displayed in ios 8

    I want to limit the amount of emails that are downloaded to my mail app. I can only find instruction for doing this in ios7. I am using ios8. I don't have a “Mail Days to Sync” option.
    Any ideas?

    You may want to post in the correct forum, this one (AppleWorks) is for a rather old piece of Apple software for a Mac.
    Post in the iPhone forum.

  • Has anyone figured out how to limit the number of emails displayed in the mail app?

    There used to be a setting in Mail, Calendar, Contacts that would let you set the number, starting with 50 emails.  I can't find this setting in iOS 7.

    I do not know why one cannot use an artboard
    in Illustrator it looks like this
    In Photoshop it looks like this
    As far as I can determine it has cropped the area properly as before, please explain what is missing?

  • How do I limit the number of emails displayed in iOS 7?

    I prefer to display only 100 emails from each of my mailboxes on my apple devices, but with iOS 7 it's showing all my emails, and there doesn't seem to be an option to limit this in settings as there was previously?

    You need to delete your current hotmail account set up on your iphone.
    Once this has done click 'Add Account' and select the new 'outlook.com' tab.
    Set up your hotmail account again from scratch and this will then allow you to select how many weeks/months of emails you sync to your phone.
    Im not sure if anyone else had a similar problem to me prior to iOS 7, but if i deleted an email from my hotmail account on my iphone - it wouldnt sync with my actual hotmail account. So when i logged in online all the emails I had deleted on my phone would still be showing as unread.
    But by setting the account up as above, they now sync perfectly.
    Well for me anyway

  • HT201320 Can we limit the number of emails kept in the Mail app on iOS 7?

    In previous versions of iOS, I could limit the amount of emails that were kept on my iPhone to avoid a "build-up" of many messages; I believe I set mine to 50 messages per account. Is there a way to do this in iOS 7? I do not see the option anywhere. I my phone is using over 650MB of my phone's storage and counting. I see this as a looming problem on my 16GB iPhone 4S.
    Thank you for your help.

    That setting is no longer available on the iPhone. If this is an Exchange account, there is a setting for how much to sync. I'm not sure if there is a similar setting for IMAP accounts, but there is nothing for POP accounts. You would need to manually delete files on a regular basis and then set similar settings for how often to empty the trash.

  • 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.

  • TS3899 In ios7 how do you limit the number of emails downloaded from your ISP server?  Previous version allowed you to limit it to 50, 100, etc.

    In ios7 how do you limit the number of emails downloaded from the ISP server?  Previous version allowed you limit the download to the last 50, 100, etc.

    Hi,
    Unfortunately, this is a feature that Apple have taken away.
    The best way to let them know you want it back is via http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • How to limit the number of emails that are shown for each account

    Hi, I'm going from iOS 6.1 to my new 5s iOS 7 and I wanted to know if there was a way to limit the number of emails shown for each of my accounts? In iOS 6 there is a setting "show" where you can choose how many you would like to be loaded at a time from 50-1,000 , is there a setting similar to this and I am just not seeing it? Please help me asap. I have only logged in 3 of my 12 email accounts and already have over 13k emails loaded...

    You can't limit it to the last 50 messages, but you can limit it to the last 1000 messages in each "folder" (label).
    Go to the Gmail website and click on the gear icon to the top-right side.
    Click on Settings.
    Click on the "Forwarding and IMAP/POP" tab across the top of the Settings area.
    Towards the bottom of the IMAP section, change the "Folder Size Limit" setting to "Limit IMAP folders to contain no more than this many messages". By default 1000 is selected, though you can also choose 2000, 5000, or 10000.
    Click Save Changes at the bottom.

  • I use an exchange server.  Despite checking general settings to limit the numer of emails to 100, I have over a thousand emails.  What do I do to limit the number of emails?

    Are there any settings to limit the number of emails in my inbox?

    Verizon is not doing that it is the mail that is doing that.

  • How can I limit the number of emails retained on my ipad air?

    How can I limit the number of emails that are retained on my iPad Air?  Because of legal requirements of a long-term project, I cannot permanently delete emails relating to that project from my ISP's mail server.  My gmail account contains over 17,000 emails and, upon setting up my new iPad, and updating to ios 7.1.1, I now have all 17,000+ emails taking up space.  I would like to limit the emails by count as I was able to do on my old iPad running ios 5.1.1 OR to retain them based on date range.  I have not found any instructions on the support discussions or general iPad blogs that allow me to do that.  Any way around this problem?
    I also miss the 5.1.1 mail search feature that allowed me to narrow the search by from/to/subject/all.  Does anyone know if that feature is available using some little-known ios 7.1.1 feature?
    Thanks for your help.

    If you have a decent mail provider like Microsoft Hotmail or Outlook.com mail it does.
    If you have Gmail it does not.  Quite right. Gmail is rubbish.

  • How do you limit the number of emails that download in ios7?

    How do you limit the number of emails that download in iOS7? In previous versions, I was able to limit (i.e. 50/100/ etc), the number that would download to my phone at any given time - other than new emails. Past/old emails would only be reloaded if I deleted newer ones or I requested more be loaded.
