Mac mail sometimes does not load gmail messages

Several times a week my mail will not load some messages. Most times it works fine. My iphone always gets the mail. What's up with that?

When you guys say turn ON and OFF, are you referring to "show in IMAP" checkbox in the "Labels" tab in gmail?  As superwhatever mentioned, Apple initially told me to make sure these are showing so that Mail.app picks them up.  If I uncheck "All Mail" and "Important" wont that just mkae Mail.app skip downloading thosemessages that are in Important and All Mail?  Instead shouldn't Mail.app's "Inbox" be set to also incorporate those message that are in Important and All Mail?  This was so much of a headach for me back when the original problem surface that I just stopped using Mail.app and purchased Mailmate.  Since then though, I'm missing certain key functions that Mail.app has and want to take another stab at resolving this.
On my iphone it shows that I have 18 unread messages for my company account, while in Mail.app it shows only 2 unread.  The other 16 are found in "Important."  how does this get fixed?

  • Mail sometimes does not sync read state?

    Mail sometimes does not sync read state? If I read the mail from OSX it's not marked as read on my ipad. It's random so sometimes it does sometimes it doesnt. It's really annoying, how to fix?

  • My mail system does not load image automatically

    my mail system does not load image automatically. how does that happen? what should i do to set the image load configuration?

    Although you can configure Mail to load HTML images automatically, you should think twice about doing it. The sender of the message could determine your email address, your IP address, and when you opened his message. Not what you want if you get spam, as most people do.

  • Mail content does not load

    iPhone 4S with 7.0.4 occasionally the body of an email does not load. It's as if the email is blank. When the email has NOT been opened, the initial body (I'm set to 2 lines) displays perfectly. When the email is actually opened, nothing appears except the header ("from" and "to").

  • HT4718 I upgraded to Mavericks and my mail application does not load and give an error screen.

    Mail application does not work after upgrade to Mavericks.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

  • Mail content does not load in Apple Mail 10.8.2 using exchange server

    About 10 am this morning Apple Mail stopped working.  Initially, no emails could be sent or received even though connection doctor found nothing wrong with the internet connection.  At 4pm, email would load but with just the sender and the subject - no content will load.  Is anyone else having this problem with Mail?

  • Mail Options does not load

    I'm running Messaging Server, with the information as follows:
    iPlanet Messaging Server 5.2 HotFix 1.12 (built Feb 13 2003)
    libimta.so 5.2 HotFix 1.12 (built 12:53:23, Feb 13 2003)
    SunOS red20 5.8 Generic_117350-02 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2
    After an indeterminate period of time with the webmail client open, the Options page does work anymore. After clicking on the Options tab, the content changes to "Not found."
    At this point in time, the issue can be resolved by simply restarting the mail server, however, a user must first discover that it's not working before the server can be restarted.
    I was wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem or if there is a HotFix available for it?
    Thanks for your time,
    -William Chan

    Thanks for the response Jay,
    This begins to happen for all users, immediately after they login. The messenger server can be running for weeks with no problem, and then this problem occurs. At other times, it can run for a matter of hours before it happens again.
    I don't believe the user's session is timing out and we have had different users login on different computers to test it after we have noticed the options page not loading, and it's the same for all of them.
    There are approximately 3 to 4 hundred webmail users, but definitely not all at the same time. I would estimate that no more than 1.5 dozen would be connecting at the same time. They all use https if that helps.
    Thanks,
    -William

  • Mac Mail spins, but not load

    I have 3 different mail accounts that Mac Mail downloads from. 2 of them work fine, but as of yesterday one of the accounts simply spins, NEVER stopping and never downloading mail from the server. All of my settings (smtp, etc) are correct. While the account spins, I can't quit mail and have to force quit. Once I re-open mail after a force quit and shutting down, the spinning on that one account continues. I've checked with the server, and we can't find any problem on that end and I can go directly to the server and have mail in the "broken" account forwarded to one of my other 2 e-mail accounts that Mac Mail has no problem with. I'm stumped. Any ideas?
    Dan

    Hi Dan.
    It's a POP account and "remove copy from server after retrieving a message".
    Not sure what you mean. You haven’t really answered my question, have you?
    Try this to determine the scope of the problem:
    1. Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Accounts, and create a new user account for testing purposes.
    2. Either log out of your main user account or just quit Mail so that it does not interfere with the other user account.
    3. Log in as the newly created user and set up Mail anew there with the problematic POP account.
    4. Go to Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced and disable Remove copy from server after retrieving a message if it’s enabled.
    5. Check whether the problem also happens when logged in as another user.

  • IPod nano does not appear in iTunes AND Mac computer - AND does NOT load

    My nano worked out just fine for a month until one day - when I wanted to charge the battery - it just did not appear in iTunes, nor on my desktop. I tried the 5 Rs, but can't restore, of course, because my mac does not recognize the nano. As soon as I plug in the nano to my mac, it is stuck on "Do not disconnect" and does not charge. I'm tired of resetting and plugging the USB cable in and out. Please, help!
    What else can I do? Does it make sense to send my nano back and have it inspected? Does Apple charge for technical support?
    I'm thankful for any kind of reply.
    iBookG4   Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    me again.. hey did you guys work out how to get around it at all? I'd so love some adivce. I think i'm going crazy ay. I've also tried all the things mentioned in the above link given by another member..with no luck. May be its possible that there's not enough space on my computers hard drive to recognise the ipod???? Plus when i did originally download the software from out of the box, it didn't allow me to select where i wanted to put this software and just said it was putting it on my hard-drive anyway. I would of liked to have positioned it somewhere, so i knew where to find it and too make sure it was all there n ok.
    I look forward to hearing form ANYONE with some tips :o)
    Thanks again

  • How can I sync my email account with "mail"? When I delete a message using "mail" it does not delete that message on "Safari" when I check on it. Can I change this?

    It is the same way on my iPod and iPhone so I just stopped checking my e-mails on them.

    Yes there is an option to Remove from server emails that are deleted and then emptied out of the trash folder. At least there are in most email programs so I would think Mac Mail offers this. But after you delete them and empty the trash in the mail program you have to again Check Your Email so that the server knows that email was deleted.

  • af:message sometimes does not show error message

    Have a page that has a popup to show some information.
    In page, used this to show error message that occured during save.
              <af:messages globalOnly="true" inline="true"  inlineStyle="padding:10px;" id="m4"/>
    In popup, used this to show error messages that occurred while performing some action.
              <af:messages globalOnly="true" inline="true" id="m2"/>
    Whenever any error occurs while performing some action in page, error message is shown.
    Then open the popup
    Whenever any error occurs while performing some action in popup, error message is shown properly in popup
    But after closing popup, not able to show any error message in page. In bean error message is added to FacesContext, but not shown in UI.
    What would be the problem here?
    JDev version: 11.1.1.6.0
    Thanks,

    Thanks Vinay for the link. However still facing the issue.
    This method will be invoked from page.
        public void onDelete(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
            RowKeySet rksSelectedRows = table.getSelectedRowKeys();
            int count = rksSelectedRows.getSize();
            if(count == 0){
                FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
                facesContext.addMessage(null,
                                        new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR,"Atleast one row should be selected.",null));
                facesContext.renderResponse();
            } else {
               ADFUtils.showPopup(deletePopup);
    This method will be invoked from popup withing same page.
        public void multipleSelListner(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
            List<String> list = (ArrayList<String>)ADFUtils.getPageFlowValue("selList");
            try {
                if(list != null && list.size() > 0){
                    if(list.size() > 25){
                        error = true;
                        FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
                        facesContext.addMessage(null, new FacesMessage(FacesMessage.SEVERITY_ERROR,
                                                "Maximum 25 items can be selected.", null));
          facesContext.renderResponse();                                           
                        return;
            } catch (SQLException e) {
                System.err.println(e.getMessage());
                e.printStackTrace();
    I have removed some extra code...
    Looks like problem is with 2 af:message tags. When popup shown with error message second af:message within popup gets preference. Subsequent messages are pointed to that one.
    May be related to unloading popup content from document. Not sure though.
    Thanks,

  • Mac Mail incoming email not loading when on home cable broadband

    I'm having a new problem (started happening just 2 night ago, for no apparent reason). Incoming emails no longer working on any apple device (iPhone 5, iPad, MacBook Pro) when connected to my home broadband wireless modem (cable, netgear cg3100d). This is despite all devices accessing websites without any issues, and speedtest showing 32mbps when connected to this modem. When I take any of these devices to connect to my work's wireless internet connection the mails load fine. Likewise if i switch off wifi on the phone and use the 3G or 4G the emails load.
    What could be the cause since I haven't changed any settings? I'm nowhere near my monthly download limit either.
    I've also noticed that Apple TV loading content has slowed right down. This seems to be related since it has occurred at the same time. Strange that only email and Apple TV is affected. Websites all load fine and at full speed.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Timdk,
    The port settings for mail.bigpond.com changed a few months ago and this is starting to be enforced. Please check your settings against those in the table on this link: https://go.telstra.com.au/helpandsupport/-/email-settings-summary
    I would suggest performing a factory reset of the modem via the interface http://192.168.0.1 and you will find this option located under Set Password in the left hand menu.
    Once done, test it again and let us know how you went

  • Mail does not load current emails

    mail application does not load current email.  when i delete messages mail downloads olkder messages, not current or new.

    If it doesn't download new mail, it is possible that you are not connected to the mail server. Try to check if you have internet connection on this phone.
    Good luck.

  • Reader x or xi does not load; task manager shows 750 kb memory used

    I am using windows 7 home premium 64 bits, and adobe reader x or xi sometimes does not load. However, the task manager shows that AcroRd32.exe is loaded, but only using aroung 750 kb of memory.
    I must restart windows, or at least close sesion and sometimes reader loads properly.  Sometimes the  computer must be restarted twide to adobe function.
    Does anybody has an idea why this is happening?

    I'm experiencing the exact same issue.
    I am on Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1. I have updated Adobe Reader to latest version, and do not have other older versions of Reader installed. I have tried opening reader by itself using Run As Administrator, as well as Run as Another User, and also in XP SP3 compatibility mode. I have tried to force PDF files to be opened in a browser window by right clicking them, selecting Open With and then selecting Internet Explorer. Nothing works. I have had this issue before, and SOMETIMES it will help if I uninstall Adobe Reader and reinstall, but even after re-imaging my entire PC, this issue comes back.
    As with original poster, all I get when trying to open PDF files is AcroRd32.exe showing in Task Manager and using between 700k and 1785K of memory. No matter how long I wait, nothing else happens.
    This is getting very frustrating.
    Seeing as I cannot load Adobe Reader at all, is there a way to disable protected mode without loading Adobe Reader (like with registry setting)?
