Load More Messages - cannot understand

Hi all,
I have just set up a mail account on my iphone. It is the same POP account as I use on my iMac using Mail.
I am sending test mails from my work email to my home email - in theory the same mail should arrive on my iMac and my iPhone.
It is mostly successful other than my iphone mail inbox has the message "Load More Messages...1 message total, 1 unread"
I cannot do anything with this message, if I tap it it just comes back.
Any ideas what this could be.
Thanks

I think that "Load More Messages" is just a lousy way of saying "check for new messages" or "get mail" I think that was taken care of by the 2.1 firmware so you may want to make sure you have iTunes 8 and have run your iPhone update.

Can't "Load More Messages" from Exchange Email

Hi All,
I have 2 email accounts (yahoo + exchange). In Yahoo when I get to the end of the inbox on the phone, I can click "Load More Messages". This does not show up on Exchange however. What gives?
I am using PUSH (although if the stuck email thing starts to annoy me, I will sometimes switch to fetch)

I'm gonna give this a bump too. I'm using iPod touch...and even though I already set my microsoft exchange mail to sync with no limit of days, I still cannot retrieve my mail that is older than 2 or 3 days. On top of that, I don't even get an option to load more messages. Can anyone help us?

Activesync not letting me "load more messages"

I have an active sync account setup with my gmail account that's not showing more than about 20 or so emails in my inbox. I should be able to scroll down to the bottom of the list and click a line that says "load more messages" but that button does not appear. If I set the account inactive in settings and view the same email using IMAP I get the link and I can see more message over and over.
This is frustrating because I'd rather use active sync for push email like I do on my iPhone using this same account. Anyone else seen this? If it makes a difference, my gmail is actually my own domain email using google apps.

kensei, I looked at my sync settings and I was only setup for 3 days on mail, but after setting this to no limit, mail seemed to download and download and I could scroll and scroll through the emails.
It's a half fix. While I can now see more email messages, if I had let it go, it might well have downloaded several thousand messages. I stopped and set the sync to 1 month. This result differs from the iPhone in that on the iPhone, it shows me a certain number and at the bottom get the "Load More Messages". Here, I only get that if I use imap.
Finally, as far as the Exchange settings go, it's google gmail, so although they use active sync, I really doubt they are using an exchange server. Either way, this same account behaves differently than it does on my iPhone.

Where is the "Load more messages..." button in Mail?

My Mail icon has a badge showing unread messages since I did a "Continue search on server" but the usual button at the bottom of any inbox saying "Load more messages" is missing. As a result I am unable to view my old unread messages. I have restarted the Mail app as well as the iPhone, with no change.

I'm trying to change the number of stored emails on both my iPad and iPhone. I used to do this as you suggested but since the latest os7 update the 'Show' option has disappeared. Any ideas what I can do?

Cant see the indication "load more messages"

hi everyone! when i read my mail, i cant load any more by scrolling down. i remember that before, when i scrolled down, i could see "load more messages", but cant see it any more.
any help pls?

It could be that your internet is lagging. Try to disconnect and connect to the internet again. Then open a browser to make sure the internet is working.

Why has my mail started storing under Load More Messages. I'm now unable to access my mail messages.

Why has my mail started storing under Load More Messages. I'm now unable to access my mail messages.

This is my basic, first start, recommended "fix" when these types of weird, unexplained things occur on the iPad. Give it a try. After you reboot, go back to the mail app and see if the messages will load.
Quit the mail app completely and reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Can't "Load More Messages" in email

All of a sudden, I can't download old messages under, "Load More Messages". Everything visible is only a couple weeks old.

I have two yahoo accounts and I know as they 'improved' their servers I had periodic outages. It'd work fine on my webmail on my computer, webmail on the iPad, but not via the mail app. And it was stuff on their end. It may be a case of wait and see and you may need to eventually remove/readd the account on your iPhone.
When the issue is on their end, unfortunately there's not much for users to do beyond wait it out or find work arounds.

Load More Messages (X+1 messages total, 0 unread)

I have been having an unusal problem that may be hard to describe. When I enter the Mail App on any of my iOS devices, iPad or iPhone, there is a phantom read email appearing in of my Gmail accounts. When I log on to Gmail through a desktop browser there is no additioal read email I can find, none are hiding in the tabs or labels. Furthermore, if I were to log into an Android device (I had an old one laying around), there is no "Load More Messages" or additional message appearing when viewed from that device under the same account.
Furthermore, when I click on the "Load More Messages Button" nothing happens, or occasionally it will try and load something but then go back to being a link.
Any ideas on how to get rid of it? I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the Gmail account countless times under the Gmail installation, under Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calendars/Add Account/Gmail. I have also tried soft resets and hard resets (with and without reverting to a back up) and each time the problem keeps arising!
This isn't the end of the world, I still can send and recieve emails, it is just annoying the **** out of me trying to get rid of it.

This is still occuring. Everything I seem to do doesn't fix it. It only happens in iOS Mail. When looking at the Gmail account through the desktop client and showing the label "All Mail" there is not additional mail that I have seen before.
Any and all suggestions would be much appreciated.

Inbox will only let me view 8-10 messages, no "Load more messages" option

I have an iPhone 3g, with my gmail account synced to the email. It downloads the email, but I can only view 8-10 most recent messages at a time. I chose to be able to view 200. The user guide says to load additional messages "scroll to the bottom of the list and tap load more messages" for the inbox when I scroll to the bottom of the list of 10 messages, there is no "load more messages" option. Just the little arrow to check for mail and the option to compose a new message. Also if I want to search for and old message, it always says "no message found continue search on server" and then says "no message found". All of my email goes to my "inbox".
help? Thanks!!!

I was having the same problem...I looked into a lot of obscure solutions, until I realized I was missing the obvious one.
I went to: settings; Mail, Contacts, Calendars; clicked on the mail account I was struggling with (did realize there where more options available there); changed the "Mail Days to Sync".
I hope that helps.

My mail is configured correctly. When I go to view my inbox I get the 'Load More Messages...' with the number of messages showing. I touch the display and nothing happens. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the email account and restarted the device. I can send mail fine as well as view my sent messages. Very confusing.

E-mail won't load... just 'Load More Messages...'

My iPad 4 recently stopped updating it's e-mail whenever I run the e-mail app. The app starts up fine, but then acts like it's updating the mail, but then doesn't and only adds a "Load More Messages..." option.
I've tried removing the account, load it again, in addition to restarting the device loads of times, but for naught.
I just removed the e-mail account, restarted the device, added the e-mail account (double-checking the settings) and now the e-mail will only display the 'Load More Messages...' option. When I click on this it spends a few minutes thinking then does nothing.
Is there a bug floating around out there or a recent glitch?
Thanks,
Nominrath

Here was the problem I solved myself: My hosting service, Hostmonster, has a "convenient" application using a script that allegedly will set up your client Mail on a Mac for some standard email services, including iCloud. As long as the script was implemented, it was preventing my mailbox from connecting, not enabling it. The only way I know of to stop the Hostmonster script is to delete the account, and then manually reinstall it. That solved the problem.

Yahoo mail will not, "Load More Messages" on iPhone 3gs

When I go into my Yahoo mail account using the iPhone's mail app, scroll down to the bottom of my list in my inbox, and press the, "Load More Messages" button it will not load more. It's really making me upset. Anyone else having this problem? I have more messages to load but it just refuses to load them. Please help!
Thanks alot.

Hey Alan thanks again for the advice but what you suggested did not help/work. On my Yahoo account there is still and option to load more messages, but when I push it, it sadly still fails to load anymore messages. Question? Do the messages have to be unread for them to load? This is really starting to bug me because I can't go back and look at my old emails.
Also with my hotmail account it still will not even give me the option to load more messages. It's really frustrating.
And a final note: I tried to add my yahoo account on my wife's iPhone and it behaved exactly the same way (meaning it would give me the option to load more messages but when I asked it to, none would load)
Sad face.

Gmail IMAP keeps showing "Load more messages"

I would say about every 99% of the time I check my email it says "load more messages" and I have to press refresh button to see them. Pressing the load more messages button does not load them. I do not know what I need to fix to get my mail to load correctly. I used the add gmail account button when I created this account. Please can anyone help me?

This is still an open issue for me as well. I have tried restarting the phone, deleting and re-adding Gmail IMAP account, and I also did a full phone restore with no luck.
Seems to be a 3.1 thing.

Don't want to "Load More Messages"

Just set up 3GS, from 3G. After I've read and deleted my (POP) email it says, "Load More Messages ... 2,730 messages total, 2,730 unread"
I don't want to load them, I've read them in Outlook. Suggestions?

Hi,
If you are on o2 (UK), you can register to bluebook, on the o2 website, which is a service provided by o2, once you have registered, you can set the option to save every text message sent/received. It will automatically do it, and you can manually forward on messages too, should you need to, I think they allow a gig of storage.
Maybe using that you could delete the conversations and always have access to your messages online if need be. For users outside the UK, I don't know if your service provider supports a feature the same.
I hope this helps.

TS3899 I am trying to pull up an old email that I received and placed in the trash. When I press "load more messages," the older messages do not pop up. What am I doing wrong?

I am trying to pull up an old email that I received and placed in the trash. When I press "load more messages," no additional trash eMails pop up. What am I doing wrong?

You're not looking in your trash can. And if you've emptied your trash can, the message is gone.
To open your trash, you have inboxes on the top, and accounts below. Tap the mail from the accounts. That's where your trash can is. Tap it. If the mail is not permanently deleted it will be in the trash.
