In Apple Mail, how can I maintaining Mailbox links when migrating hosting?

First, I apologize if this question has already been asked and answered. If so, please kindly point me to the appropriate discussion.
I'm in the process of changing hosting for one of my (several) websites and email addresses. I have been using Apple Mail succesfully with the site email using IMAP for several years, and have many thousands of messages, many of which that have been moved into different folders in Mac Mail locally (not the IMAP folders). What I'd like to know is if it's possible to maintain all of these links during and after I migrate my website and all server mail to a new hosting company. I'm very paranoid that all of my links (to mail in those boxes, and relationships to sent mail) will be lost, and that all that mail will simply redownload to the primary Inbox.
On a separate note, I'd also like to know if, once the above issue has been addressed and resolved, it's possible to copy my entire Mail application to another computer so that I can keep a mirror copy of two mail applications fucntioning like an exchange server. Meaning, if I download one piece of mail on one computer, it will automatically be downloaded and marked as read on the other *and* if that mail is moved to a local Mail folder, if it will be moved on the other computer in the other Mail application. Basically so that all mail and mail relationships stay in sync across multiple machines.
Hope this question makes sense. I'm happy to elaborate, and am appreciative of any help.

Ok, so even thought no one has answered, it appears that once I move mail to the "On My Mac" mailboxes, they no longer exist on the server (though they can be moved back there if desired). Which means that I'm fine if I migrate my hosting to a new server, and redownload them, because the mail in "On My Mac" will be untouched. The only thing I don't know about is the "Sent" mail, but I believe those also exist on the server, and therefore if I migrate them then the link relationships are maintained (no idea about the mail that is "On My Mac" that has links to "Sent" mail in the server, but I guess that isn't so important).
As for keeping a completely syncronizable Mail application - the only way it appears I'd be able to do that is to forgo "On My Mac" entirely, and keep *all* mail on the server. If I want to move mail into different folders, those folders would have to be Server folders created for that account, and hosted by that hosting company. This actually doesn't seem like such a bad move, especially as we get further and further away from having only one device that we use to process Mail.
Are there any disadvantages to *not* using the local "On My Mac" folders? Are there any major advantages to using them?

Apple Mail: How can I automatically set a signature, depending on the sender (have several for one account), NOT on the account?
I have some comma-separated senders in my Apple Mail accounts, some for business, some for private (using the same account). When I'm sending a business mail, I would like to append my business signature, when I send a private one, either nothing, or a fun signature.

HT2729 How can I maintain folder structure when copying more than 1 folder of videos to the iphone?

Spent hours trying to figure this out - no luck!
I have a video tutorial course that I would like to be able to view on my iPhone, the only problem is that it is broken down into 6 folders - 1 for each subject.
And if I add the whole course to be synced via iTunes it gets copied ok. But it loses the original folder names that the files are stored in on my PC
ALL the videos files copied to the iPhone are bunched togeather in the Video app and it takes forever to figure out which one comes next.
How can I maintain the original folder names/structure that the files are stored in on my PC on the iPhone?

To follow how I solved this it might be good to know what I started with:
I have a main folder which I called 'Music Theory' and 6 sub-folders: 101, 102, 103, ....etc.
with up to 20 or so videos in each one.
Note: Only import one sub-folder at a time into iTunes and then do all the following actions BEFORE importing the next sub-folder:
Add only 1 sub-folder to the 'Films' section in iTunes (either drag and drop or use the File - Add Folder to Library).
Select all the imported videos (hold down the Ctrl + A keys on the keyboard simultainiously).
Right click and select 'Get Info'
Then you may get a pop-up with this text but just click the 'Yes' button:
You should now have the 'Multiple Item Information' window showing. Click on the 'Options' tab and edit as below:
Tick: 'Media Kind'              and from the Drop Down Box choose: 'TV Programme'
Tick: 'Part of a Compilation' and from the Drop Down Box choose: 'Yes'
Tick: 'Remember Position'        and from the Drop Down Box choose: 'Yes'
Now click on the 'Video' Tab of the 'Multiple Item Information' window and edit:
The 'Programme' text field (I entered Music Theory) This will be the main heading for all the folders that I want to add to this series.
The 'Series' text field (I entered 101 for the first sub-folder)
Now click the 'OK' button.
iTunes now starts processing all you have done and moves the vildeos to the 'TV Progammes' section.
The first part is now done!
Now you should repeat all the actions you have done from the start on each sub-folder you want to include in this Video collection, then when you've done that you can upload the lot to your device (iPhone in my case) with this last step:
All you need to do now is select your device under 'Devices' in the left hand menu and tick the 'Sync TV Progammes' box in the 'TV Progammes' section and select the series that you want include in the right hand area. And then click 'Apply' and now your done!!!    :-)

How can you Keep column links when using export CVS

I am exporting a report using Report Template of export: CVS. This report is a copy of a report that have column links that work. However, when I export the report using export: CVS the excel file no longer has the links in the columns.
How can I get the link to be transferred to excel?
Thanks

446336,
When you export anything as CSV type it is a plain ordinary text file - MS Excel opens it because it has knowledge of this type of file (ie text delimited by comma/tab).
You seem to need a bit more than that - best if you search the forum for ¨excel¨ or maybe ¨report exports¨. I believe there are some threads here that may help - I think it needs java or some fancy PL/SQL to do it.

How can I maintain sorted data when I cut and paste?

I work almost exclusively with .csv files that I download from the local multi-list service (I'm a real estate agent). I can sort and chart data on the multi-list website but the interface for Apple users is pretty bad (Citrix client running through a gateway). I was looking forward to being able to download and manipulate data on my iBook as well as be able to present it to clients in a polished and professional manner. As far as I am concerned Numbers seems like a Beta at this point. I have sent in feedback and realize that I will never receive a reply from doing so. I really want to like this program but right now I just want to run my iBook over with my truck. Any help will be much appreciated.
I have three Numbers windows open. One is labeled "Sold" (20 columns, 693 rows+1 header), one is labeled "WE" (20 columns, 679 rows+1 header) and one is an untitled template (20 columns, 1 header). When I sort the data in "Sold" and "WE" to the parameters I need I end up with 18 rows in "Sold" and 22 rows in "WE". My goal is to take the sorted data and paste it into the untitled template.
I select the 18 rows in "Sold" and then select copy (this takes 25.65 seconds BTW!!!). I go to the untitled template and then paste (20.86 seconds). Numbers pastes the entire 693 rows from "Sold" into the untitled template.
I have tried to choose rows. I have tried to choose columns. I have selected individual cells and I have also tried to "select all cells". Each time I get a different result on what gets pasted into the untitled template. I have also tried "paste", "paste and match style" and "paste values" each time getting anything but what I need (the 18 sorted rows).
Does anyone know how to do this?

Hi,
you should probablu describe better your actual situation:
Is the form handler servlet a part of your portal web application?
Seems like yes, if you use getContextPath() :-)
then the form handler servlet should be able access the same session object
through
request.getSession()
If this is not the case, than you could get the session id at the time when
you create the form (in your portlet jsp file) and pass it as request
parameter to the form handler servlet.
That form handler servlet can return it later ...
By the way - the session id is contained in the session cookie, that the
browser sends everytime to the server in the requests. So when it hits the
".../application..." url, the server should automatically recognize to which
session it belongs...

Hello All,
I am submitting to a form from a portlet.
This formhandler is outside of the portal framework.
Once I am done with form data processing, I need to come back into theportal.
For this, I am sending a redirect request :
response.sendRedirect(
request.getContextPath()
+ "/application?" +"origin=FillMeta.jsp"+"&event=bea.portal.framework.internal.portlet.event"
+"&wfevent=fileuploaded" +"&pageid=home"
+"&portletid=FillMeta"
However, I am not able to pass the sessionid in sendRedirect.
How could I pass the sessionid using sendRedirect?
Would greatly appreciate your inputs or suggestions.
Thanks.

How can I copy a link when the site address doesn't show up in my address bar?

When I click a link within my email, I am taken directly there but the links address doesn't pop up in the site address bar so I'm not able to copy and share it.

My iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

my iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Apple Mail - Amber color sometimes in Mailbox Pane in Yosemite

Hi
I am running OX X Yosemite 10.10 and using Apple Mail. Sometimes in the Mailbox pane on the left I see the top of the column glow amber and fade down the upper part of the column. It almost appears as if the color is moving. Has anyone else seen this and if so do you know what it signifies? My guess it means it is checking mail, but it does not to it consistently to affirm my guess.
Any help is appreciated!

solved it without delete/add back (which would have been a pain)
turns out the having INBOX in the mail app path prefix setting (mail/ preferences/accounts/advance) was causing the entire account to not show up in the mailbox pane.
I have other email acts where it works only with INBOX in this setting. Still haven't figure out what makes this necessary sometimes, and not other times. Once the account showed up in the bottom of the mail pane, I was able to expand it and highlight the individual mailboxes that appeared (sent, drafts, etc), and then select the "Use this mailbox as" command which is at the bottom of the Mailbox menu.
Seems to me that different IMAP servers present themselves to mail clients with a fair amount of variation, so setting up Apple's mail app for one IMAP acct may be quite different from another.
I wish I could find a really good tutorial which thoroughly explains mailboxes in the apple mail client and mailboxes in an IMAP server and how they all interact, but anyway, its working ok now.

I am trying to manage family sharing and I get a warning "invalid apple ID" that accounts can participate in one Family at a time. How can I add my daughter when I can't even access my account?

I am trying to manage family sharing and I get a warning "invalid apple ID" accounts can participate in one Family at a time. How can I add my daughter when I can't even access my account?

Your best bet would be to try resetting the password to the account that you would like to use via iForgot
Once you log in to that account change the email address to anything, it can even be fake its just a placeholder
After you do that you will be free to change your old email address on your appleID to the new one that is now free to be used as it is no longer attached to the other account.

You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.
