If I open an e-mail on ipad, it disappears from the server

I have an iPad2 and an iMac. If I open an e-mail on th iMac, I can still see it later on the iPad, but if I open it first on the iPad, it is deleted from the server and I cannot read it on my iMac.
I have an IMAP account on both with gmail. I have tried to change the setting so that it doesn't delete on the server, but that is only possible with a POP account, it seems.
Appreciate any help!

Do you not close a tab after using it? If you close them, they can't accumulate.
I haven't seen any change in TB3.1 in the way tabs work here.
Older versions are available here:
https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/releases/
Choose your version, then your OS (win32 in your case) then your locale (en-us I would think). Finally, when presented with something like ''Thunderbird Setup 24.6.0.exe'', right-click it and choose "save link as", then after it has downloaded, double-click the downloaded file to run it and install Thunderbird.
You don't need to uninstall your newer version. Some add-ons may require help to locate their previous versions, compatible with what you've downloaded and installed; Lightning in particular comes to mind.

  • "mail has not been downloaded from the server" messages......

    About 2 weeks ago I started seeing "mail has not been downloaded from the server" messages popping up when I attempt to both new mail and e-mails that I have already read. I usually don't have any problems when I first launch the program, but after a few minutes running I get this message when I try to open any e-mail.
    The message from "---" <[email protected]> concerning “RE: S8-04 pps sample package” has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it.
    I know that the program is running online because it continues to show me new e-mails that come in.
    What should I do?

    Your OS detail provided indicates you are running 10.4.7 and Sasso's OS detail provided is 10.3.9.
    The MBOX Breaker script does not work with Tiger mailboxes which are different from the mailbox structure used with previous Mail.app versions and the link you provided includes instructions for Jaguar or Panther Mail, not Tiger Mail. And depending on the size of the mailbox with Jaguar or Panther Mail, the MBOX Breaker Script may not be required.
    If you are getting this message with Tiger Mail, this indicates you upgraded to Tiger from Jaguar or Panther on this Mac.
    If so and if this Sent mailbox is for a POP type account, using the Finder go to Home > Library > Mail > this POP account named folder (named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account) > Sent Messages.mbox.
    List all file and folder names available within the Sent Messages.mbox folder.

  • I have noticed recently that deleted e mail messages do not disappear from the screen.  Instead they turn grey until I switch to another mailbox.  When I return, they are gone.  Any idea why this has started to happen?

  • A Twist on (this e-mail) has not been downloaded from the server.

    So I've read the discussions on the following message in MAIL
    The message from [email protected] concerning “Re: blah has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it.
    But here's my issue - the ONLY e-mails in my POP account that have this message are between myself and one other person. All other e-mails from the same time period, and in fact everything in my POP account is normal except for messages I sent to and received from this person. I don't want to get into the specifics, but I have several good reasons PRIOR to discovering this to believe that my communication with this person was being monitored. If I didn't have these doubts from before as well as the fact that ONLY this correspondence is tainted, I wouldn't be so curious.
    Is it possible that this "download from server" message indicates that some other party was reading these messages? I was not in the US during this exchange - but rather in a country which does poke around quite a bit. I don't mean to sound dramatic or paranoid - but it is awfully strange and suspect.
    thanks.
    (i don't think this is a problem with Tiger or OS X or whatever - as it only applies to this correspondence)

    What does "being monitored" mean?
    In Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger), that error message means there is some mismatch between what Envelope Index says there is in a mailbox and what there really is.
    The only way I can currently think of those messages being monitored could have a bearing on this is that someone had access to the *.emlx files stored locally on your disk.

    I subscribe to the Scotsman newspaper through itunes.  The Paper is accessed through Newsstand.  According to their support I should be able to access the paper on up to five devices, but I can't open it on our mini ipad.  Support at the paper can't help. It does work on our other ipad.

    I click on Newsstand, then search for The Scotsman.   When I click on The Scotsman App there is no option to Download, only the OPEN box.  When I click on OPEN nothing happens.    It seems to know I'm already subscribed - it shows the subscription under In-App purchases but it doesn't open. I've also tried getting in using Featured and Purchased at the bottom of the screen, but nothing works.  Thanks for trying to help.

    I guess you could try but I don't believe Apple can help with activation lock issues.  They may, however, be able to determine if the Apple ID belongs to one of you and reset the password for you if you can prove your identity.
    You might want to try calling Apple by going to https://expresslane.apple.com; click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'.  In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Lost or forgotten Apple ID password'.  Perhaps they can help determine if it's your ID and reset the password for you (and they probably have more expertise in doing this than the Apple store).

    it was not just email it was all internet via safari but all apps including the bank account app. the laptop and pc access the same email servers which work perfectly so it is difficult to blame the servers.
    by the way it has now started to work properly at lasst after a whole day of trying to resolve this year.
