Inbox (From) and Sent (To) suddenly I can't change them

Once upon a time, not so long ago, I could have my inbox columns set as: From, Subject, Date Sent, and Attachments. At the same time I could have all the other folders set to: To, Subject, Date Sent, and Attachments. Now, suddenly I cannot keep them different. Any ideas?
Thanks!

You’re confused. Mail stores column view settings globally for all the mailboxes. You cannot change them for one mailbox without also affecting the rest, except Mail allows you to have slightly different From/To and Date Sent/Date Received settings for Sent. All the other mailboxes are shown like Inbox, regardless of whether they contain received or sent messages. Only whether mail is organized by thread can be set independently for each mailbox.

  • All emails except those received over last 24 hours, were suddenly deleted. Inbox, trash and sent all affected. Any ideas on why and whether I can expect more of the same? I use outlook express

    I have had my ipad2 for over a year and this is the first time I have suddenly lost emails without warning. My inbox, trash and Sent all emptied leaving only emails I had received in the last 24 hours. Have no idea where they have gone or whether this may happen again. Did not have iCloud.

    Try this:
    Settings > Mail Contact Calendars
    Tap your mailbox
    Tap Mail Days to Sync

    Lion is a bit of a memory hog - kernel_task will use quite a bit and Safari is known to use more; you can't do anything about the system, but changing to Firefox may help a little. The best way to deal with it is to increase your RAM; the required minimum is just that: the minimum. My Macbook would keep crashing and beachballing until I upped the RAM to 4 GB. RAM is inexpensive right now - check out OWC (macsales.com) or Crucial.com; both reputable RAM vendors with lifetime warranties. You won't regret it.
    As for iDVD - I purchased the retail iLife 11 disk because of iDVD (because I use that a lot) - it's available at online resellers, the Apple Store, and ebay.

  • Read the Inbox,Drafts, And Sent Items SMS in J2ME

    Hello,
    i want to read the SMS from Inbox,Drafts, And Sent Items. Is their any way to read this.

    Yeah ... i'm trying to do the same thing .. well ... this is the only work around that i found ... The platform i'm working on is a nokia 6630 2nd Edition (series 60, midp 2.0) .. since the device has JSR75 ( connection to file and pim ) ... you can open the c:\system\mail\ directory (note, it maybe at another location) and phase the messages stored in there directly ..

  • Bubbles to the Right of inbox, drafts and sent

    I am running 10.4.7 and have had problems ever since I installed the 10.4.7 update in June.
    Next to the inbox, drafts and sent workding are blue and white overlapping circles that should not appear there.
    I have verified and repaired the disk permissions, reinstalled the 10.4.7 update as suggested in earlier postings and this is not going away.
    Thoughts?

    Ray,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    What type of account or accounts are you using -- POP, IMAP or .mac?
    While this symbol can indicate trouble completing the access to an IMAP kept on the server, it might also indicate some trouble with the conversion of mailboxes used in Mail 1.3 to the structure used in Mail 2.1. Please read my comments in the topic at the link below, and then post back here, with specifics on your observations of your Mail folder:

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox).
    Or you could see if the second half of Kappy's reply in this thread helps : https://discussions.apple.com/message/20357006#20357006

  • So i forgot my security questions. I sent the reset link to my rescue email and i don't know where to go from there. Cause theres no link to change them.

    So i forgot my security questions. I sent the reset link to my rescue email and i don't know where to go from there. Cause theres no link to change them.

    If the email hasn't arrived after a few hours and isn't in a spam filter, you need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, or clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed in either article, filling out and submitting this form.
    They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

  • I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space

    I have about 130 gigs of movies on my iTunes and was wondering if I can just put them on my backup hard drive and remove them from my main computer to free up the space.

    I haven't done this with an external drive, but I would imagine it works the same way as if you have multiple internal drives.  Also hopefully it works with less headache in OSX than in windows.
    Anyway, move all your music over to your external, and then go into itunes -> preferences -> advanced -> iTunes media folder location.  Navigate to your drive, and pick the folder you want.  Ensure that your folders are set up like they are in your ~/Music/iTunes folder, or wherever your iTunes is currently pointing.  Then quit and restart itunes.  If your music doesn't show up, try dragging your music folder from your external onto itunes, and it will hopefully update your library.xml.
    As far as Jerry's problem goes, you could try adding another music folder to your library.xml, but I really have no idea whether this will work or not.  If you want to give it a try (can't promise you won't corrupt your library.xml, so make a copy beforehand) you can find the music folder xml element right near the top of the xml file (open it with textedit/textmate/whatever text editor you want (NOT WORD)).  Curious to know if this works, and if it doesn't I have other ideas so let me know.

    She must have signed into her own Apple ID on your iPad in order to sync her content from iTunes so try this and see if it works.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. See if your ID is showing in there and if it isn't - tap on her ID, sign out and then sign in with yours.
    You should not be syncing to to different iTunes libraries. The iPad can only sync with one iTunes library without erasing the the content on it if you decide to sync to another iTunes library.

  • I have photos from my computer saved on my Iphone and I can't delete them from the app photos. How can I delete them?

    I have photos from my computer saved on my Iphone and I can't delete them from the app photos. How can I delete them?

    You'll have to deselect the photos in the photo pane in iTunes on your computer and then sync the phone again, this will delete photos that have not been taken with the phone but synced from the computer.

  • A lot of my pictures are in I Photo and also in Finder.  Can I delete them from finder?  They are taking up a lot of room.

    A lot of my pictures are in I Photo and also in Finder.  Can I delete them from finder?  They are taking up a lot of room.

    Just make certain that the "Originals" or "Masters" are in your iPhoto Library before you trash the images.
    You can find out by selecting the iPhoto Library file with the control key held down, then open the Library (which is, actually, a folder). You'll see a folder named "Originals" or "Masters" and you can check there to make certain that you have all of the high-res images in your iPhoto Library. If you do, you can safely trash the original files, although I would, if it were me, make an archive of the images before trashing (either on an external HD or on archival DVDs).
    Make sense?
