IMAP messages from random dates?
I recently added an IMAP account to my iPhone. The phone show 25 messages, however, they're not the most recent ones. They seem to be from random times but are displayed in order. When I receive a new message however, it gets displayed in the right order.
Also, if I click "load more messages", it'll load random messages from like a year ago, I was hoping that it'll load more in chronological order.
Anyone has any idea what's going on?
Thanks
The iPhone fetches the messages in the order they were modified, not in the order they were sent or received. Here is what I did not work around this problem:
1. Go to MobileMe webmail
2. Sort the problematic mailbox by date, newest on top. For me it was my Sent messages.
3. Set the prefs to display the largest number of messages that's possible (200)
4. Create a new mailbox called Temp for example
5. Choose Select All. Choose Move to Folder... and choose to move the selected messages to the Temp folder
6. Go to the Temp folder, sort the messages by date.
7. Select All, move back to the original folder.
The messages have now been modified in the order then were sorted. For me, my iPhone now displays at least the 200 latest emails in the correct order and that is good enough for me.

I'm having some difficulty with Time Machine. It appears to be deleting backups from random dates on my external hard drive. I am not deleting them. Are they hidden and how do I prevent this from happening? Can I retrieve them?
... I didn't know that Time Machine was more a last resort back up instead of main back up.
Don't rely upon Time Machine to the exclusion of all else. I compliment Time Machine with a periodic "clone". TM is much better than nothing, but it's a safety net, not a hammock
Here is my understanding of Time Machine's file deletion algorithm, distilled from Pondini's FAQ, Apple's KB articles, and my own observations.
Time Machine deletes ("thins") files from the backup disk as follows:
Hourly backups over 24 hours old, except the first backup of the day
Daily backups over 30 days old, except the first backup of the week
Older backups get deleted when Time Machine requires space and you deleted them from the source disk.
Therefore, assuming TM has been performing at least one backup per day, backup files will remain available:
at least thirty days, if they existed on your Mac for at least a day
until you run out of space, if they existed on your Mac for at least a week
In addition to the above, Time Machine always keeps one complete copy of your source disk so that the entire volume could be restored if necessary. Any files that remain on your source volume will be present on the TM backup, no matter how old they are.
If you are using 250 GB of space on your source disk, its Time Machine backups are likely to require at least twice that much. A good estimate of the minimum required backup volume size would be about three times the size of your source disk - 1.5 TB in your case.
A more thorough explanation would require Pondini since he has plumbed Time Machine's mysteries far more than I have.

Recover deleted imap messages from os x server
Ok so my work email is IMAP on mac mail (imac lion) running from a mac server 10.6.8 snowL.
My settings on my imac mac mail are so that deleted IMAP messages are removed from the mac server after 30 days.
but how do i get these messages back/restore? they are not in my mac mail trash? is it done server side?
doh!Now I've testd all available clients. None of them can access fiel sharing on the server:
10.6.8
10.7.4
10.8
Therefore I assume that it isn't an authorization problem.
If I do "telnet steve.local 548" on the server itself, I get a connection. So the server must be running.
The firewall has been disabled by "sudo pfctl -d".
The 10.6.8 client can even do screen sharing. So there must be an IP route.
I'm still clueless now. -
Can't receive text messages from random people
Hello,
I'm in desperate need of help. My galaxy note 2 is now refurbished with a new sim card and completely reset. I still cannot get text messages from some people. I used to get it but then updated a few months back with this new update that came out and since then it hasn't worked. I don't know what to do. Please help with ideas. Here is what I have tried.
Tried new sim card 3 times.
New phone.
Installed sms fixing apps.
Installed third party apps:handcent, gosms, voxer (only one that works because it uses internet)
I don't know what else to do. This is getting very annoying.dramatech300 wrote:

Did it sync to your Google account or Facebook account for contacts after the new update? Check the contacts that are having the texting issue - be sure the number stored for them is only the 10-digit number, area code included but with no leading "1".
Can you text them? Can they reply to a text you send? Are they using your full 10-digit number to text you? Perhaps both of you can delete each other as a contact and then start over - send them a text, see if you receive their reply, and they can save you as a contact from that exchange. -

So you have a Vector v wicht contains the client part of the dialog.

The results in the vector from DATA to the ending dot . should be the part of your constructor string;
Use this constructor
MimeMessage mm = new MimeMessage(null, ByteArrayInputStream( yourstring.getBytes() ) ) ;at this moment you can deconstruct the mime further.
maybe this code will help:
you should call the dumpPart method like this dumpPart( mm );

In OSB, how to poll message from DTAQ(data queue in AS400)??
Hi,
In our OSB project, I have a data queue(AS400) in proxy side and Oracle AQ at business side, I can easily connect to Oracle AQ, but I am not able to understand how to connect with DTAQ (data queue). Is there any adapter supporting DTAQ for OSB. or does OSB support DTAQ?? Please help me out.
Thanks
DebHi Bolla,
If I understand correct all you would need to do is in your connectivity map, publish the data to that queue.
example high level hierarchy
prj1Data1
-Indata1 svc
-Indata1 topic
-Indata1Translation svc
-Outdata1Delivery svc
-queOutdata1
prj2Data2
-Indata2 svc
-Indata2 topic
-Indata2Translation svc
-Indata2Delivery svc
cmData2Out Indata2Delivery publishes to queOutdata1
Hope this helps and does not add any additional confustion. -
IMAP message dates on Mail for iPhone
Hello,
I just moved my IMAP folders to a new server and Mail.app now shows all message received on the date I moved the folders rather than the actual dates they where originaly received.
Basically, I understand the "Received Date" is the time the file was written to the server's file system, so Mail's behavior is normal as all messages have just been copied to the server.
The question is: How can I change Mail to show the "DateSent" taken from each message's header? This works fine on Mac, but it doesn't seem possible on iPhone...
Or alternatively, do you know of a script that will change the date of each IMAP message on my server's file system to be the one of the header's date field?
thanks a lot
fabienFurther to my earlier post today. Deleting my BT a/c in mac mail yesterday and adding back as new A/C did not work and both my A/c and my wife's continued to time out. I finally went into the a/c settings once more, deleted my password and re-entered it and saved the change. Surprise surprise, this re-established imap contact and downloaded all my folder contents once more. Not only that, it restarted my wife's e-mail in her logiin without the need to delete and re-enter her separate E-mail password. My password is the master for using BT Broadband and somewhere this had got lost/ corrupted in requesting imap mail to our iMac. I hope this is a permanent solution and hope this helps others whose imap service fails.

itunes will not open and I get a message that the "Data Execution Prevention (DEP)" feature in Windows is preventing it from opening. (this is after I've been using itunes for years???? If I try to manually deselect itunes from the DEP filter, of course I get a message that itunes cannot operate without the DEP active...another Catch 22 from the evil program designers....
Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

How to delete messages from IMAP server but keep on computer???
Hi
I am using Mail to receive my email messages from the University's IMAP server. My problem is that I need to keep copies of my sent and received emails for archives on my computer but not on the server because space is limited. However, when I check the 'remove messages from server' box in the preferences, it also removes them all from my Mail inbox and sent mail folders. Consequently, I'm constantly needing to go to the server (once a week) and manually delete the messages when my folder is too full and then I lose all of my messages.
Can someone please tell me how I can keep all of my sent, received and trashed emails on my computer without them being stored on the server?
thanks
adamEric is right. An IMAP account is designed specifically to keep email on line, on a server somewhere on the planet. That way you can use any machine anywhere and see your email. A POP account is designed to actually download your email to the specific machine that you are using and remove it from the server. Although there are ways around that...
So if you want to keep an email on your computer and you want to delete it from the server, you have to make an "On my Mac" mailbox. -
After reformatting my 1 Tb WD ext drive and tinkering with the "exclude these items" list, I now get the following error message from Time Machine: "Are you sure you want to back up to the same device your original data is on?" I've reformatted in Disk Utilities...not sure what I did wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Not sure what you mean by "booted" from it.
If the Mac OS is installed on the external drive, then it's possible to start up from it, just as you do from your internal drive. Please open the Startup Disk preference pane in System Preferences, and verify that your internal drive is selected as the startup disk.
Assuming that's the case, then it may be that your TM settings have been corrupted. Turn off TM, then move or delete the file /Library/Preferences/com.apple.TimeMachine.plist. Turn TM back on, recreate your settings, and try again. -
How to set up Gmail as IMAP in Mail without downloading messages from 2007?
I was fine with Gmail on Apple Mail on my Macbook Pro using POP, but in order to best sync with my newly acquired iPhone I changed it to IMAP. Now it's proceeding to download all 7000+ messages from by Gmail Inbox from 2007. Is there no way to limit Apple Mail to the most recent 30 days of Gmail?
My last resort would be to delete most of my messages in Gmail, but there's not even a filter for that, and I'd prefer not having to do so.
Message was edited by: Tux KaponoThis is not an Apple Mail problem, but the nature of IMAP, if in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced you select to Keep copies of All messages, or Keep copies of All messages and their attachments for Offline viewing. Also, from your browser interface with Gmail you can choose to exclude the All Mail folder.

Messages from POP account not showing up in IMAP account folders
I've posted on this already, but I'm a little clearer about what the issue is, so I'm gonna try again.
I'm using Mac Mail. Recently my ISP assigned me an IMAP account. [Customer service says "we only use POP," but I can't get a POP account.] Messages in my mailboxes show up fine. I'm having difficulty with the mailboxes directly associated with the account---Inbox, Sent, Draft, etc.
I have only one Inbox. There are three Sent folders---the one that is always at the top of the sidebar, and two in an IMAP-specific set of folders. I coped the older messages from the POP account into what I thought were the corresponding folders of the IMAP account. Copied messages appear only in one of the IMAP Sent folders. However, when opened, they have no content. In some cases there is an indication that the content is "loading" but nothing ever appears.
Is it possible to get the older messages from the POP to show up with content in the IMAP folders? I gather from reading related threads from the archive that copying messages between account types should not be a problem, but it is for me.
Thanks,Well, I thought I found a solution in the archives here: Import the old messages from within Mail. Had no doubt that would work. Well, it didn't. Though all the old messages were Apple Mail messages, when I tried to import Mail said, "No valid Apple Mail files were found." Tried importing them as mbox files. Same result.
IMAP has advantages for people who check mail from more than one device, or for multiple users of an account. Not having been forwarned by AT&T that I was going to be switched from POP to IMAP, it has been a big headache for me. And it clutters up the sidebar with a changing collection of folders, including many that seem redundant, and some whose purpose I can't, in my ignorance, imagine.
Supposed to get a call today or tomorrow from a unit in AT&T that is "specially trained" to handle problems like mine. We'll see.
I sure would like to get help from somewhere.
