Iphone mail always shows "downloading 1 of 1" never finishes?

how can i fix this problem--i phone always shows downloading 1 of 1 but never completes.

Deleting your mail account is a bit drastic and unnecessary. Instead - give the following process a shot:
Close down mail (i.e. double press the home button, hold on the mail icon until it starts to wiggle, then hit the minus sign).
Turn off your mail accounts
Go to Settings --> Mail, Contact, Calendars
Go into each account listed and flip mail from On to Off
Click the home button to exit settings
Start Mail - you should see the selection screen asking you what kind of mail account you want to create. More importantly you should not see the "downloading" at the bottom.
Click the home button to exit mail
Turn your mail accounts back on
Go to Settings --> Mail, Contact, Calendars
Go into each account listed and flip mail from Off to On
Click the home button to exit settings - get into mail and everything should be back and the "downloading" should be gone.
I hope this helps.

Calls from my iPhone 5 always show up as "Private" or "Blocked".

Calls from my iPhone 5 always show up as Private or Blocked when I call someone else. (My ID is normal when I text them though.) I've looked but can't find anything in the phone Settings that would fix this. Am I missing it or is there a bigger problem?

If you have problem with updating Firefox then easiest is to trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 3.6.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder], so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

My iPhone 3G always shows an Unknown number calling when I've got that person's contacts, What should I do?

When someone calls me, my iPhone 3G keeps on showing that it's an unknown number calling when I've got that person in my contacts.
What can I do to solve this? Thanks.

Simmilar issue here!
Summary: Incoming calls show up only as phone numbers, not with the caller's name.
Steps to Reproduce:
1) On your iPhone, save a person's phone number in Contacts with the country's dialing code in front (+ZZZ-XX-YYYYYYY, where +ZZZ is the country code, XX is the carrier, YYYYYYY is the person's phone number);
2) Make a call from that person's device/number to your iPhone;
3) On your iPhone, while ringing, shows the above number without +ZZZ and without the person's name.
Expected Results: No matter how the number is saved (as +ZZZ-XX-YYYYYYY or simply as XX-YYYYYYY) the caller ID should always show up, as in previous iOS editions.
Actual Results: Caller ID does not work as expected and as in previous iOS versions.
Notes: When I receive voice calls, the number comes in without the country dialing code in front, simply appears as XX-YYYYYYY (where the XX is the carrier code and YY is the number) and the caller's name does not appear. In my address book ALL my contact's telephone numbers are preceded with the corresponding country dialing code, because i travel a lot. If I delete the country code from a contact's phone number, and that number calls me, then the person's name appears. I'm am in Angola (country code +244) using iPhone 4, iOS 5, carrier: UNITEL (92)
On the other hand, SMS's are OK, i.e. the Caller ID is linked to the phone number and shows up (because SMS's are receiver with the country dialing code in front of the phone number, p.ex. +244-XX-YYYYYYY).
It has something to do with the Carrier Settings Update as in iTunes i get the error message 1630 which states that: "iTunes could not check for un update to the carrier for your iPhone. An unknown error occured (1630)."
Thanks

Download of app never finishes to Downloaded

Here I created a screen recording of the problem I am experiencing, and I asked my friends too, they see the same issue,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRiPVl32Cm4&feature=youtu.be
When I try to download a Free app, it shows that it's being downloaded, but the download never finishes, the Free button remains Free, you can click on it to download again, and it never turns into "Downloaded"
Anyone else having the same problem?

Hello there, itunesreport.
First thing you would want to do is see if the download was interrupted. The following Knowledge Base article offers the directions to follow for that:

My ibooks are not syncing with my iPad. Many are simply stuck in a "downloading" status, but never finish.

MY iBooks are not properly synching with my iPad. Many of the books are stuck in a "downloading" status. But they never finish and are not added to my library. I have tried resetting the iPad and it is running the latest release of iOS.
Thank you!

IPhone Mail App showing "negative" number

Hey guys, for some reason my mail app on my iphone is showing a "negative 1" even though there is no mail. I deleted the account, re-entered all the information and it is still there. Also, when a new mail arrives it goes back to 0 (or no notification), once I delete that it goes back to -1. What's wrong? I have no clue what to do! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Same problem here.
I have three accounts on my iPhone. 1 GMail, 1 IMAP and 1 MS Exchange. After I disabled the GMail account the IMAP account showed a negative new-emails badge. ( image: http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/3136/img0001boy.png )
I tried deleting the account and recreating it on the iPhone, but it didn't help. Also tried to re-enable the GMail account, also didn't help.
After I disabled the GMail account I watched some TED seminars using the TED application, which during one of these video's completely locked up the iPhone. I force-shut down the iPhone, started it back up again (took longer than normal). After the reboot the iPhone was showing erratic behavior (contacts would quit when pushing certain buttons, etc).
A few reboots later the erratic behaviour was gone, but I instead was left with the -2 email badge.
Hopefully this elaborate description of the events that took place will help someone locate the problem.

MAIL: Trying to settle long-lasting problem. Mail always immediately downloads the messages I delete from any IMAP mailbox. I'm running out of HD space!

BACKGROUND
I only have 60GB of space on my MacBook Air. Currently, three long-standing IMAP accounts are taking up over 7GB of it!
I have seen several related discussions about this kind of problem, but they all seem to have been solved or glossed over with setting up the IMAP interaction so that messages are deleted from the server in addition to the device or with a "Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For" fix that doesn't work for me. I like being able to save all of my email history on servers (I'm often surprised by how many years back I have to search to find a piece of information I need), but I can no longer stand losing so much of my very limited local space to really old mail.
PROBLEM
I'll refer to just one of the relevant accounts as "Gmail," since that's in parentheses when seen in these screenshots. These are its current Mailbox Behaviors settings:
Under my Gmail Inbox in Mail, I have deleted every message from before 2013. The mail from 2013 is all that I want stored on my MacBook Air.
Ultimately, I think this has something to do with the Archive (seen in the sidebar above, as well). Even when I've deleted everything from before 2013 in my Inbox, AND emptied the entire contents of Trash manually, the Archive still contains all of the mail from the server (yes, this account was started in 2011, but I have others that go back much further).
The cherry on top is that when I delete the same messages from the Archive as I've deleted from the Inbox, Mail immediately begins re-downloading all of those messages. Last time I tried this my laptop had to download 23000 messages, but here's a screenshot of proof with a smaller sample:
In case my Gmail server settings are useful to consider, here they are:
Final Notes
• There's a lot that I don't know about exactly how IMAP communication occurs between a device and a server. For my sake and the sake of anyone else who needs this kind of help, please clarify terms like "flags" and "archive" (since Gmail and Mail both use the term and I don't know think they mean exactly the same thing) if/when you use them.
• If anyone does think that there's some sort of "Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For" solution to this, you should know that no matter what I have selected in Mail's sidebar (at no matter what level of indentation), the options available under that menu item are always grayed-out.
• I want to keep using Mail. There's a lot that I like about it and I don't want to switch to Thunderbird or something else (remember, I need to save as much local space as I can).
• I just upgraded to 10.9.0 Mavericks, but this problem has existed for me and behaved essentially just like this as long as I can remember. In fact, I think I recall the problem still existing before there was an Archive in the sidebar at all.

UPDATE
I still have the problem, but when I checked on this post to see if anyone had commented and I simply hadn't received an e-mail, I noticed that all but the last of the images I included have stopped displaying (I had friends check, too). Most of them were just visual examples of what I was explaining in hopes of giving context and all available info that I may not have personally viewed as relevant, but the first one, about my account's Mailbox Behaviors settings sure is important. These are the settings I have:
• Store draft messages on the server — Check
• Store sent messages on the server — Check
• Delete sent messages — One month old
• Store junk messages on the server — Check
• Delete junk messages — One week old
• Move deleted messages to the Trash mailbox — Grayed-out and Check
• Store deleted messages on the server — Grayed-out and Check
• Permanently erase deleted messages when — Quitting Mail
I hope this helps. Please comment if I'm leaving out any other important information.

Iphone Mail Only Shows "Load X More Messages"

My iPhone's mail program just recently broke. My situation is as follows:
1 Work IMAP account
This account worked fine in the past (sending and receiving), but now for some reason whenever I check email it shows "Load X More messages... <newline>X messages total, 0 unread", where X is whatever number of messages is in the inbox (confirmed through another computer for example). I can click on the message and it does the normal UI syncing animations,etc, but the message remains and I cannot view any email.
This also appears to only be happening with my INBOX, because if I hit the "mailboxes" button and pick one of my IMAP subfolders, I can see messages there just fine.
I've tried restart the phone, replacing the email on the phone through iTunes, etc, and nothing has changed (except the X number of messages of course).
What can I do!!!

I tried doing a full restore but that didn't solve anything - even when I choose not to restore my backup, but started from scratch. Funny thing now is, I checked my mail on my phone when I hadn't checked in a while (normally I check on my mac first so it can filter out the spam) and while it still shows the "Load X more message", it ALSO shows my inbox! Crazy. Apple, where is a fix for the terrible email client you've put on the iPhone?

Mail always shows sending two emails in Mail activity

Hi, I have noticed, that even when I send only one email, the Mail activity reports "sending 2 mails". Does anyone know why that is?
Thanks in advance
ralf

It's because you're using an IMAP account, which resides on the server, not on your Mac. So whenever you send an email, it's sent to the server, which then sends it back to your Mac, so the two are always in sync.

IPhone Mail Not Showing Images.

In my mail account within the message I'm not seeing any images. All that shows up is the blue question mark.
I'm using .mac or .me whatever it's called.
it's rather frustrating. Any ideas?

Settings > Mail contacts calendars > Load remote images
Is that on?
if so, you may want to delete the account and re-add it.

Is there any way to get iphone mail to show which incoming messages have been marked "urgent" by the sender?

My work voicemail emails me after-hours messages via gmail. Callers are given the option of tagging them as "urgent", which on my Windows phone, meant that they came in with a little red exclamation point (just as Outlook does). Urgent messages on iphone's mail app, though, don't seem to have any such indicator. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

I just did a test email, seems like that function isn't available with the iphone.
