Import hotmail folders to iphone

Since i have updated my iphone with iOS 7 i cannot get my folders that are set up in hotmail into Mail- they have always previously been available. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

That's right - it works on iOS devices.  The hotmail/exchange active sync feature is only available on certain model phones (iOS, Windows Phone 7, webOS palm pre, etc) at this point.  It is not available for use with email clients on OS X or even Windows at this point.
If you have a Mac or a Windows pc, at this point you can only to POP3 email through hotmail.  Under POP3 only messages in the inbox can be downloaded to your Mac or Windows pc, regardless of the email client app you are using.
mBox Mail for Mac can give you IMAP-like features with the hotmail email service.  It's an add-on to your existing email client.

  • Import hotmail folders to Mail

    Hi there,
    Im a new Mac user and for a lot of years I used to use windows mail clients, my problem is that I have folders in my hotmail account and although I already add my msn account in Mail I can't see or access to my hotmail folders. Is there any way to import my hotmail folders to Mail?
    I really appreciate your helpful answer.

  • Hotmail folders on iphone

    Looking for advice. I have hotpail pop3. Within my regular hotmail account, I have many personalised folders such as work...bills..etc. These do not show up when I set up my hotmail on my iphone, only the standard ones.
    Is there any way to add my personalised folders??
    Many thanks.

    No, Hotmail is a POP account & you need an IMAP account do what you want. About the closest you're gonna get is to use a third party app that turns Hotmail into a "pseudo" IMAP account. This will do what you want & works quite well:

  • IPad & iPhone Hotmail Folders Empty

    iPhone & iPad folders empty
    Sometime recently, perhaps after updating my iPhone and iPad to iOS 6, I noticed mail is missing from many of my HotMail folders on those devices. My account is set up as an Exchange account. I have since deleted it from my iPad and added it back as a new Exchange account. My Inbox repopulated with a small number of existing emails, but just a few of the 100 plus emails that are accessible via a web browser on my desktop computer. Likewise for my Sent mail and Trash. None of the folders I created on my own populated on my iPad of iPhone with the emails that are in them and which are accessible via desktop and web browser.
    If I send a new email message to my account, then after it arrives I move it using my desktop to one of the folders I created, it shows up just fine. In other words, there doesn't seem to be any problem with new emails, just earlier, preexisting emails. I tried using my desktop to move emails from one folder to another to see if they would then populate on my iPad, but that didn't help. I tried marking them as unread. That didn't help either.
    I cannot find a way to make preexisting emails show up in the folders on my iPad or iPhone.
    Has anybody encountered this before? Is this a known bug? More importantly, is there a fix or a workaround?
    Thanks.

    Thank you.
    I found the answer. It was operator failure, my fault. In the settings on my iPhone and iPad there is a setting called Mail Days to Sync. I had this set to a short duration. When I changed it to No Limit, all the older mail was properly populated into their respective folders.

  • How to access my Hotmail folders in Mail on my Mac like I can on my Iphone. I have 10.7.5 Lion operating system

    How can I access my Hotmail folders, not just emails,  in Mail?

    It sounds like you have your Hotmail setup as POP in Mail. You will need to add a new account as IMAP. Note, when you delete the POP account in Mail it will also delete the messages in the Inbox. You need to archive or move the Inbox messages to a folder before deleting the account.
    The iPhone is connecting through ActiveSync (which is exclusively for mobile devices).
    Since you are using [email protected], you might need to log into your account in Safari and add aliases for your email as [email protected] before creating the IMAP account.

    It sounds like you are using an application to import. You can do it manually.
    Start > Computer (on the right) > scroll to the bottom and you will see your iPhone under Portable Devices > Open it and you will see a Drive, open that and there will be a DCIM folder. That is where your photos will be (There may be other folders each holding photos).

  • Lost photos from SD cards in Mac while importing new pictures from iPhone 5

    I imported photos to my MBP iPhoto from my camera, I subsequently selected those photos from my SD cards. After that I tried to import photos from my iPhone 5S to the same MBP. At the end there was an error message saying importing could not be done. Then I found out that the imported photos from my SD cards were gone. Is it because I used both my camera and iPhone the same day? How can I solve this problem?

    Hi Elements User
    The issue is not with how I view them in Elements but how Elements decides to re-name the pictures while importing them from my SD card to my hard drive.  I would expect that it'll re-name the photos while uploading by using the custom name I gave it(ex Europe Vacation) and start the numbers (ex Europe Vacation 0001.jpg) with the oldest picture and work its way up.  However is doing it folder by folder (folders in SD card) and using the chronological order inside each folder. This means that the photos in the most recent folder created by the camera will be re-named 0001-000x and the second most recent folder will be renamed 000x-000y and so on until the last folder.  When I import photos using the Windows Importer it'll custom name each photo using the date/time taken in ascending order regardless of what folder they are in.
    Any additional help will be appreciated as I'd like to use Elements to do the import, if not I'll have to go back and use the Windows Importer.

  • Where are all the "DCIM" folders on iPhone?  Everything not in Camera Roll.

    I just finished stripping down all the DCIM folders accessible from a PC via Windows Explorer.  I'm really looking for answers on the "how to", not "why it is" or "it just is that way" please.
    The DCIM folders (mine [iPhone 5 w iOS 7.x] shows 5, naming convention is beyond me).  These consist of the following...
    Total files equals the total number of pictures/videos in Camera Roll.
         - JPEGs (iPhone Created, iMSG Saved, or Moved (file xfr/emailed) to iPhone & Saved to Camera Roll),
         - PNGs (screenshots)
         - QuickTime Videos (iPhone Created & iMSG Saved to Camera Roll)
    What is not accessible in the DCIM folder, but visible via Photos & Albums on the iPhone, are the following,
         - Instagram
         - Facebook
         - User created folders, mine came from iTools
         - Access to Albums created on the iPhone
                   * If I organized on the iPhone, why can't I access that organization via the DCIM folder?
    What I know, if a file/image is in a user created folder, I cannot access it from Instagram.  An image must exist in Camera Roll for Instagram to be able to access it... aka I have to save the file to Camera Roll.
    iCloud & iTunes, are not answers to the question, "How do I access all otherwise PC-considered "DCIM" folders?" when the only access allowed is "My iPhone --> Internal Storage --> DCIM --> '5 Folders housing all Camera Roll images/videos"
    As you can read, this is not a question "What is Camera Roll?", I just defined what it is above.
    Thank you!

    Maybe this will help you with a description of how iOS sorts photos. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4221.
    As far as creating folders while in Camera Roll, the camera roll is not really designed to store photos on a long term basis, hense why if something happens to the iPhone, you lose your photos. It is designed for you to import the photos to the computer and do your organization there, and then sync the photos back to the device via iTunes. Then, should something happen to the iPhone, your photos are still safe on the computer. The ability to create folders and arrange photos through the Camera Roll is rather new. I'm not sure how it handles them, but earlier versions just put a "shortcut" so to speak in the folders you created, with the original file remaining in the Camera Roll. I'm not sure how that may have changed, but I am not sure how it handles these folders now. Seems you have discovered some of this by your comment on Instagram.
    I do know that in Windows, and from what I have read it is the same on a Mac, you cannot use Explorer to put photos back into the Camera Roll. While you can read from the Camera Roll, you cannot write to it with the computer. Someone may be able to dispute that, but natively through Windows I can be sure that writing to the Camera Roll is not allowed.
    Regarding your comment about the SD card, it is true, despite the fact the iPhone uses Flash memory, you cannot write to certain areas of the memory, and as I stated earlier, the Camera Roll is one of them. While it will save photos from the camera, and will also allow you to save photos from email, messages or other applications, it does not allow you to copy materials from the computer. This is the way Apple designed it.
    I believe I read in your other post that someone suggested you use the feedback channel, but in case I was wrong, here it is. If you want Apple to see your comments, you need to post there, as they do not participate in the forum. The feedback link is www.apple.com/feedback and then click on the appropriate link.

  • How to see old emails in hotmail folders on iPad

    Can see my hotmail folders on iPad mail but do not contain previous emails. Any ideas?

    Are you accessing the account with the Mail app?
    If so and you want all server stored mailboxes available on your iPhone, you must create/access the account as an Exchange account. Instructions for doing so should be available via Microsoft's Hotmail website or try a Google search for it.

  • I cannot get Mac's Mail program to load all of my Hotmail folders...

    I am a Mac newbie. I searched the discussion boards for an answer to my problem but I can't seem to find an answer. I would like to configure my Mail so that it imports all of my Hotmail folders - both my inbox AND the multile folders that I have within Hotmail.  I was able to do this easily with my Windows PC, so it seems that it should be easiy accomplished with the Mac. These folders automatically appeared when I configured the hotmail account to Microsoft Outlook on my Windows PC.  Can anyone help? I'm hoping that this is a simple fix!

    mbox mail for mac is the solution I think. It worked well for me.
