  • Since upgrading my iphone 5 to OS7, the mail icon displays 11,507 in the red alert box.

    Since upgrading my iphone 5 to OS7, the mail icon is displaying 11,507 in the red alert box. I've tried to select all and mark as read but it keeps defaulting to the previous position. I only want to be aware of the new (genuinely unread) mails. How do I rectify this and go back to the old system which only notified me of the new arrivals?

    I Have same prob. Selecting unreads shows no unread messages

  • Unread mail icon oddity

    The strangest thing has started happening to my Mail unread mail icon (the little lozenge that appears next to an account when new mail comes in) It's as if baseline shift has been added. I've taken a screen shot - it literally happened out of the blue today. Any ideas? It's Mail 4.5 on Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    Clearly it's a problem I can live with, but I'd prefer it to be acting more normaller like.
    Cheers,

    Dan,
    Is it now happening almost immediately after the "corrective" relaunch?  In other words, can you count on it showing up quickly?  I ask because it may be useful to create a New User Account on your Mac, and as that New User set up Mail to run without either of the addons.
    I suppose it could be something related to the display and graphic interface, but that seems a stretch.

  • Can't get rid of unread mail icon--shows 2 unread messages but can't find any

    I've got a smart mailbox that shows unread messages so I can easily see what new and unread mail I have.  The problem is it gives me the notification icon that indicates I have two unread messages, yet the mailbox does not show any messages as unread...  This isn't a huge problem, but the Mail icon in my dock always shows that I have new mail, and the notification icon is small enough that I can't always clearly see if it's the "usual 2" or a higher number.  What could be causing this and how do I either find the unread messages or get this icon reduced to where it only shows me REAL unread messages?

    Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
    Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
    Envelope Index
    ExternalUpdates.storedata
    Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
    Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

  • Mail Icon No Unread Mail Icon z10

    As the subject would suggest. How do I read a mail icon when everything has been spoken for?
    @BlinkBrian

    Thanks for the reply. I will keep an eye on it. I did manage to get rid of it (for now) . I delved deeper into my Hotmail account's folder's through the Hub drop down menu which lists all your accounts and expanded them. Its methodically went through each folder until I came across a folder (I think it was a spam folder) and found around the number close to what was attached to the icon and deleted them all. Rebooted and the icon disappeared. What was also curious was the icon associated with the files I deleted. They weren't mail icons, they were folder icons and I think they were yellow or an orange color.
    I would be interested to find out if your new one develops this issue again. Maybe in my case it was a corrupt sync or interruption with the network data flow during setup of my accounts.

  • IPhone iOS 8: Tapping on photo icon in messages app causes app to crash

    Issue (?ios 8 bug?): Tapping on photo icon in messages app causes app to crash. Present in ios 8.0, and also still in ios 8.0.2. iPhone 6+ 64GB.
    I just wondered if anyone else has been having this problem.
    Initially it worked great. Tapping the photo button next to the text box in message should bring up a menu with your latest photos and other sharing options. However, after the first couple of days, tapping the button brought up the menu, the phone freezes, and then after a few seconds the photo app crashes.
    Deleting most of my photos restored the function, but after another couple of days (and some more photos) it started happening again so I think perhaps it is related to the number of photos. After about 5-10 photos it loads the menu very slowly and its quite buggy. After 20+ photos it wont load the menu at all without freezing and the app crashing.
    My iphone 6+ was set up as a new phone (not restored from back-up).
    I hope this is some kind of bug that will be fixed in ios 8.0.3, but wondered if anyone else has the same problem or has any solutions?
    My workaround at the moment is just to go the photos app and either copy and paste the photo into a message, or share the photo via the photos app.

    I have this same issue with my 128 gb 6 plus.  I've tried restoring as new on a few occasions, but to no avail.  I did notice while my pc was synchronizing my apps, that the feature worked fine a few times until the synchronization was complete.  I seriously hope that the numbers of photos limits one's use of the feature, because i purchased the 128 gb 6 plus so that i could keep photos at my ready.
    Has anyone heard of a solution yet?

  • Mail icon wont open after ios update on iphone 5

    After the IOS update today, my mail icon will not open and the screen seems to have lost sensitivity. Any suggestions? Thanks.

    Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

    The mail icon on my iPhone says I have 1,504 unread messages, but when I go to delete them, it says "No Mail".  I was trying to "clean out" my phone because I can't access my Words With Friends app - everytime I try to go there, it kicks me off.  I still get messages from Words saying my friends are waiting for me.  Any ideas on either of these issues?

  • E-Mail icon no longer shows new mail in iOS 6 iPhone 4

    I no longer get a little red number by the mail icon, telling me I have new mail and how many ( in iOS 6 for iPhone). I have to open to see if I have any mail. Wouldn't have to open if the red number still appeared. There must be something in settings like notifications (didn't see it there) that would turn this back on so it will work like it did in iOS 5. Any ideas??

    I guess it needed time. The next morning it was working

  • IPhone 4s has yahoo mail icon permanently on safari when there are no open pages

    My iPhone 4s using iOS7.0.2 has a Yahoo mail icon displaying permanently on the top of Safari when there are no open pages. The icon did not disappear even when I deleted my Yahoo mail account. The icon also has my Yahoo username displayed below it. Is there any way I can remove the Yahoo mail icon from permanently displaying on Safari? I cleared my history, cookies and data, but the Yahoo icon is still there.

    I have the same issue and koban4max's sugggestion doesn't work (well, it works, but you'll need to do it once a day.) I am surprised this hasn't been widely reported either as an iphone, Verizon or Yahoo issue. I tried various suggestions (deleting/re-adding account, moving messages to a new folder and changing password on computer/iphone, etc.) It will push for a while but stop pushing in a few hours or a few days. This leads me to believe somewhere in the interface corrupts the process. I would love to know if it's unique to Verizon, iphone 4S or IOS 5, or all of the above. The phone doesn't even fetch according to schedule, only when you are in the application. BTW, the Exchange push solution for Gmail works wonderfully.

  • Mail icon not updating to reflect number of unread email in sub-folders

    Hi all,
    I have a problem with the default mail program on the iPhone, OS3.0.
    If you have sub-folders on an exchange server and set for them to be pushed under the "Mail folders to push" setting, email appears on the phone and it even give you your chosen email alert sound. However the number of unread emails is not reflected on the icon of the mail program.
    Is there a fix for this?
    Cheers

    As neuroanatonist wrote, I think this is linked to Apple Mail (whether iPhone or desktop) focusing only on the inbox(es) for tallying up the number of unread mail, and notifying the user accordingly.
    There is an open thread dealing with the root cause of the issue brks raised:

  • Mail Icon Unread email Count

    I just got the iphone 4s.  (i had the 3gs and had to go to droid due to family plan on sprint.)  Anyhow i am back on iphone and i was hoping someone can remind me how to remove the unread email number count on the Mail icon.  I believe there was a setting etc which allowed me to remove this.  You input is appreciated.

  • How to include the exchange sub folder's unread mail into the "UNREAD" group in default exchange mail app in iPhone ?

    I am using ios 7.0.2. I have many sub folders in my exchange mail box. Problem is when any mail comes to the sub folder, it is not counted as unread mail and it also does not be visible under the unread mail group. The unread mail group only shows the unread mails which have come directly to inbox but not the mails which comes to the sub folder according to the set rule. Have any one noticed this ridiculous thing? Is there any solution or it's a bug??

    I have the same problem. On the IPad and IPhone I can easilly connect to our Exchange server. When setting up a MacBook Air, using the same settings (account/server address etc) it doesn't work...
    Does anyone have a solution for this?
    Thanks!

  • Mail icon shows (1) unread msg, but all msgs are read

    Yesterday, my mail icon showed one unread message. When I clicked on the app, there were no new messages, but now the (1) won't go away. How do I get the (1) to go away?
    null

    I also have the badge showing unread emails at a higher number than emails in my inbox. I think it may be because i deleted a number of emails from iPhone in box without opening them because i had already read them on my Mac. How can i reset. Home/sleep buttons don't do the job. Other remedies?
