Inbox Message Deletions and Contact Sorting

I have owned my Verizon Fascinate for a week now and overall I am very pleased with its performance. The display is great and I have downloaded several GPS apps which are terrific.
Couple of issues have cropped up which I have not been able to solve:
POP3 Email. Vanishing inbox. I have found that when an email is deleted from the POP3 server, it deletes from the Inbox the next time you sync the Fascinate. I would have thought that once an email loaded ion to the phone it would stay on the phone until specifically deleted. This is how Outlook and other email programs work.
POP3 Email. Folders. Haven't found a way to create additional folders beyond the standard Inbox, Sent, Outbox, Draft, and Deleted.
Contacts. Names sort by first name. Would prefer to have names sorted by last name?
Am I missing something or are there solutions?
Thanks

The sorting contacts by last name is not an option on the fascinate. If we delete the mails on the computer (server) we cannot view the emails on the device. According to database, we cannot create additional folders on the device in 'Email' application.

HT5767 how do I take all inbox messages [ 3000 ] and deleate all at one time ?

how do I take all inbox messages [ 3000 ] and deleate all at one time ?

Go to icloud.com, open Mail, then select them in batches (click the first message, scroll down, shift-click the last message) and press your delete key. The server usually has problems deleting that many at once, so you should try a smaller number, say 500, and delete them in batches.

I deleted a contact, but the contact will not go away. When I go to my messages and type the name in it still comes up I deleted all messages, emails, and contacts associated with this person. Why won't it go away for good?

Deleted Contact won't go away

Yes it does. It is still in the app's cache (recently used) and will go away on its own over time. If insist on removing it, tap the icon on its right, then Remove from Recents.

X2 Multiple message deleting and archiving

I recently bought Nokia X2 which disappoints me a lot.
There are 500 messages in my INBOX and i want to delete 400 messages but there is no mark option to select multiple messages.
I want to save another 100 messages in ARCHIVE folder. Each time I have to go through the options INBOX /OPTIONS /ARCHIVE which is very irritating. Moreover there is no folder creation in messages ARCHIVE folder, which is big disappointment.
Battery charging to taking tooooo much time and draining in very very short time in normal use(1.30-2h talk time+30min music+20-30 messages my battery goes to single point).
Solved!
Go to Solution.

menu...select messaging...select more.....choose delete msg's..
then select by msg or by folder........choose the folder or msg you want to delete
charging time on this model is slower than other models
If i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

Apple Mail, strange inbox messages deletion

I’m curious if anyone experienced something similar to this… We’re 10 people small business with all Macs. Apps we use are Apple Mail, iCal, MS Office 2008, Adobe Acrobat, and most other famous applications. For our email, we all use Apple Mail with IMAP. We used to use POP but we wanted to see same contents on Apple Mail, iPhone, and webmail, so we switched. One of the employees experienced strange problem yesterday, and I haven’t found exactly what caused that incident. She checked her email before she went to bed around 10pm, and there were about 200 messages in inbox. She did shut down her machine. Then, next morning, she turned on her mac and opened Apple Mail. There were no messages in her inbox. Over 200 messages got deleted or moved somewhere else. She found some in deleted folder, but still not everything. So, as I heard this issue, I checked on her web mail. Yes, I saw a bunch of messages in trash folder. So, I moved them all. I talked to our web host and made sure it wasn’t by them. And I’m the only one besides her who has her password. So, this seemed really strange, and I’m wondering what caused it. I’m curious if there is a software bug in Apple Mail. I do see some machines’ Apple Mail can’t quit, so the user must force quit. Has anyone experienced something similar? Thank you for reading my post. Appreciate your time.

Hi Ernie,
Thank you for your reply and explination.
1/ Yes, the instructions did help. It was obvious, but I haven't ever used Mac's. They are the best, but switching over it's not the easiest.
2/ Have been thinking about changing to another mail client because of this (Thunderbird). Usually everything with iOS X makes sense, but having the MAILBOXES option and sub-structure (Inbox, Flagged, Drafts, Sent, Junk, Trash) is beyond me at the moment (a lightbulb might go off in the future ...)
3/ Not sure why, but now everything is working fine. Could be becuase of the update to iOS 6.

Message deleting and tablespace size

I have run deleting job for xml messages and history. But the size of Oracle tablespace is not reduced.
Is it my mistake or tablespace will be clean later?

i 've had a problem like you..
you know, unfortunately, i did not solve the your problem and i have a face with the problem ...
so, if you had solved the problem, will you give me a information for solving ?
my e-mail : [email protected] ...i hope you had found a solution..

Can I transfer my text messages, pictures, and contacts from a non-smartphone to a new iPhone?

I don't have a smartphone but I'm buying an iPhone 5

I don't believe you can. You will probably need to purchase a new AppleCare plan for the new iPhone. But you can call Apple support, ask to speak with someone in AppleCare plan administration, and ask.
Regards.

Messaging and Contacts Display Issue

Hello,
Having a problem where contacts are appearing as numbers instead of the contact name in the messages page. I have contact and it still says, "(xxx) xxx-xxxx."
I've deleted the messages, deleted and added the contact, removed the 1 before the area code from the number, and none of this has worked. This is a non jailbroken phone. Anyone else had this problem with a solution? Thanks!

I have the same issue.
I was abroad and made some calls to a contact.. Now that I am back in my country I have the problem that the number is not recognized as my contact number.
Does any one knows what is happening??

ITunes deleted all contacts in iPhone

Hello!
I've synchronized contacts on my iPhone 4 with Microsoft Outlook (using iTunes), and as a result all my iPhone contacts were deleted, and contacts from Outlook were written to iPhone. So, I lost all my iPhone contacts, despite indicating in iTunes that I need to COMBINE two address books..
The question is - is there any chance to restore my iPhone contacts?
And additional question - is there a tool to send all contacts from iPhone to Windows Contacts? iTunes does it in its own way, updating only part of the contacts. For example. I've deleted all contacts from my WIndows Contacts, synchronized iPhone with Windiws Contacts, and still only several contacts appeared in Windows Contacts.
Thank you for any advice.
Best regards,
Alexey

Hi there snobbygirl,
I would recommend taking a look at the information found in the article below.

I have an iphone 5, i have stupidly never done a back up! And deleted a contact. When i search the phone text messages still come up from this contact but arent in my message inbox. Is there any way i can retrieve this contact?

Thank you!!!

With no backup? No. Are you not syncing your contacts either over-the-air or with a supported application on your computer?

I deleted a contact out of my iPhone 4S but when I go to send a message the contact appears although that individual is no longer in my address book. I deleted all text and call history pertaining to the deleted contact but still shows up.

Yes. That is why I added...

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

My phone is deleting my contacts at random. one minute ill have a contact than I'll message them and than my phone deletes them and its just a number. how can i stop this and get my contacts back?

since getting my new phone i had to send it out for repair. after only 2 weeks of having the phone. i got a loner phone and restored my phone to the loner, but than a few days after getting this loner phone my phone started deleting my contacts. i couldn't find them and i know i had them. than i turned off my iCloud for contacts thinking that would help. it never. my phone started deleting numbers as i would use them, like i would select a contact message them than right after i hit send that contact got deleted. i figured it was just the loner phone, but since getting my phone back and restoring it it too is deleting my contacts. any way to stop this and get my contacts back?

It appears that you are using iCloud to sync your contacts, is that correct? Other than turning off iCloud for contacts and then turning it back on again, what other troubleshooting steps have you tried?

Seems I entered question in subject field? Here's the question:

I've deleted and re-entered her contact info - still cant send txt. What's up? ATT says they've never seen this. I have previously texted successfully with this person and she's changed nothing on her end.
