Mail 6.2 in Mountain Lion-Irrelevant Search Results Show Up

Hi Mail(.app)ers,
I use Mail.app (version 6.2) on Mountain Lion, with one email account—my Google Apps email—via IMAP, with all folders (aka "mailboxes) synchronized with the Google servers—i.e. nothing exclusively on my local machine—with the exception of my "Drafts" folder. There are something like 12,000 emails altogether.
Anyway… I use the search bar a lot, and I'm getting this peculiar thing where a word I type will display a list of all emails containing that word, as per usual, but the list also has some emails that don't have that word in it, or in the headers. When I search within an email that shows up on the list for the exact word that produced it as a result for containing that word, there are zero results. It's not a terrible deal, but an annoyance, and these discussions are full of things that aren't terrible but are annoyances. Anyway… just wondering… does this happen with anyone else?

Thanks. No dice though, same with rebuilding the mailbox. It's the IMAP boxes that are messed up—just the "Trash - Gmail," "Sent - Gmail," and "Inbox - Gmail," whereas  the 9 folders that I've made are fine.

    It would always be easier to fix the Mail problems.

  • Why was deleted the RSS reader in Mail on OS X Mountain Lion?

    Why was deleted the RSS reader in Mail on OS X Mountain Lion?
    How can I re-enable the RSS reader?

    All RSS Readers that I tested from MacAppStore are much worst than Mail's in Lion.
    Hate them all. I'm using blogtrottr.com to compile all RSS and send me via email. But it's flooding my mailbox. There're a bunch of them that require a Google Reader account, and I won't do that. It doesn't matter to Google which RSS I'm following.
    I wish Apple put RSS reading back to Mail. Stupid idea taking it off.

    Hi, i am having the same problem. this is what i have noticed.
    I have 2 x imac's and 2 x macbook air's
    i upgraded the 2 macbook air's and 1 of the imac's to Mountain Lion, all these have problems acessing sites that require you to login .
    the one remaining imac is still running lion and works perfect.
    i am using a dlink router with DD-WRT firmware, i tested teathering from my iphone and i can log into websites fine using the newly upgraded mac's.
    It's not a wireless issue as my imac is using an ethernet connection.
    is there a compatibility issue with some routers.

  • Printing multiple emails in order, using Mail 6.1 on Mountain Lion

    In Mail 6.1 on Mountain Lion, when multiple emails are selected, then printed, they no longer print in the order that they arrived in the mailbox (as they did on previous versions of Mail).
    Does anyone know how to order these correctly?

    I was (ok, still am) frustrated by the same issue.
    IF you are running MtnLion (not sure about Lion, but won't work for SL) you can do the following to create TXT or RTF output in the right order
    Create a new mail message (yes, just a blank message).
    Go to you main Mail window, navigate to the folder(s) which  contain the message you want to group together.  Select the messages you want to group.
    Now go back to your blank message by simply clicking on that window.
    Go to menu and click on Edit-->Append Selected Messages
    All of you selected messages now are included in the blank message you were composing.
    As a refinement, you can select all, and then reduce the "Decrease" the Quote Level (see Format menu).
    Then save your draft and close it.
    OK, it get's a bit quirky here.  You can't do a "SaveAs" with anything in your Draft Folder.  So to SaveAs, you must drag the message to another mailbox folder.  Just make a TEMP folder and drag it there. Once there, you can SaveAS to (raw, txt or rtf), and the message will show up in the outfile in the correct order.

  • Mail search results show 'to' field instead of 'from' field

    Since a couple of days mail in Mountain Lion (10.8.2) shows the 'to' field instead of the 'from' field.
    Previously when I performded a search action, the middle collumn showed the 'from' field. So when i perform a search on mails from [email protected] the mails from [email protected] show up in the search results, however it shows the 'to' field. If there are more people in the 'to' field, it shows the first. Does anybody know how to return to the old setting?
    Thanks,

    I'm seeing the same thing. I didn't change any setting, but it just starting doing this and it's infuriating trying to find stuff.

  • Can't download mountain lion from app store, shows error message: retry/cancel and starts from begining

    can't download mountain lion from app store, shows error message: retry/cancel and starts from begining,
    I alreasy paid for it
    Can I get a direct download link other than from app store

    Try opening the Terminal utility in your system and running the following command to open the system's caches folder:
    open $TMPDIR../C
    Then locate and remove the folder called "com.apple.appstore" and then try relaunching the App Store and downloading the installer again.

  • Why isn't mountain lion downloading? It shows up in Launch Pad and says it's downloading but nothing happens.

    Why isn't Mountain Lion downloading? It shows up in Launch Pad and says it's downloading but nothng happens.

    Depending on your connection speed, it could take anywhere from 1-8 hours to download.  It's a 4GB download.
    On the average 3Mbps home network connection, it will take 3-4 hours to download.

  • In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)?

    Hello, all.
    In iTunes 11.0.2.26, an Albums search by track names returns albums as if they only have one track on them, but I still want to access the entire album. How can I have the search results show the entire album (with just the searched for name highlighted)? For instance, I'm wanting to play an album with a particular track on it or I'm searching for albums that include that track. iTunes incorrectly assumes that all I'm after is that one track and then incorrectly displays the album as if there is only one ttrack on it. This is a bonkers default setting. Can I change this?

    Click the search magnifying glass and uncheck "Search entire library".
    Type in the name of the track.
    Click the album of interest to show tracks.
    Select the track.
    Press the X in the search box to clear the search.
    Double click the track you want to start playing first.

  • Wep app search result show on the same product page(product large view).

    I tried the web app search result show on the same product page.
    e.g checking the postcode which built as web app on the product page, to check availability to ship the user's area.
    so the result show on the same page(doesn't necessary to lose the product page), however the web app result doesn't show on the same product page.
    There is only way i know is to link another page.
    Anyone has done?

    I have done something similar with simple jquery, by loading the results page within a div placed inside the details template.
    By doing this I solved all my needs. In your case will work too as long as you only need to show information.

  • SEARCH results - shows file name. Can I change this?

    I am using TCS2 in Windows XP.
    In Robohelp when you search the online help, it brings back the search results but they are displayed under the filename heading. Can I change that? I don't necessarily want my filename displayed to users... maybe the Chapter name?
    TIA
    -Adriana

    Hi--
    I have no solution yet but am having very  much the same problem, and would like to get in on this conversation while I continue experimenting. I'm working TCS2 (Frame 9 and Robo 8), linking the Frame book to Robo to create CSH. I'm a long-time Framer but a newbie to Robo and TCS2.
    As far as I can tell from reading through the thread, I've got some kind of variation going: some of my CSH Search results show the heading, and some show the filename. I haven't yet discovered what is the difference in the Frame file, although I believe that's where I'll find it. It's consistent from search to search. (That is, if it a topic shows up in Search results as the filename once, it does so consistently. Ditto others showing up as the heading.)
    In addition to hereby signaling moral support (!) and an interest in a solution, I'd like to provide my settings here and see how yours compare.
    The marker I created to manage output CSH filenames is "FileName." I'm working with engineers who are not native English speakers and have never implemented  CSH. For the 30 or so (out of 75) topics that actually are going to be  linked from the application, I created FileName  marker text that starts with "LinkTo_<menupath>." (Example:  "LinkTo_WebSecurity_ServerSecurityGroups_Adding.") The idea is to help  them see what to link up where. (It also made editing map IDs faster: I just select and automap any topic name  starting with LinkTo_.)
    So I'm getting Search results that look like this:
    Things to know about xyz
    text text text...
    LinkTo_Statistics_Events
    text text text...
    My "File > Project Settings > Edit  conversion settings... > Other" settings are:
    Context Sensitive Help Marker: blank
    Topic Name Pattern: grayed out but is "(Default)"
    Topic Name Marker:  FileName
    Not sure this is optimum. (As I said, a Robo newbie.) Also, my chapter titles and H1 thru H3 are set up to paginate, although I  realized later that filling Topic Name Marker field disables pagination.
    Thanks, will keep working on it --

  • Search results showing incorrect modified date

    Hi All,
    I have a one difficulty in search results.
    Document showing incorrect modified date in search results. And this happens for one document only.
    We have customized the search/results.aspx page, Our document is showing correct modified date in document properties,All Items.aspx like 31/4/2013.
    But when i search with document name in search, result showing incorrect modified date like 24/6/2004.
    I checked with database in SQL, every thing is fine.
    I have updated the Modified date through powershell script for one document and after that this recent modified date is showing in search results.
    But after updating the Modified date through powershell, issued document not showing the recent modified date in search results. still showing as 24/6/2004.
    I should not do edit property and save, to create new version.
    I don't know what is happening in search crawl. All ready full crawl running daily basis.
    I want to check whether this issued document is crawling or not. Could anybody help me to get out of this. what is the main cause of this issue.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    I'm seeing the same issue after upgrading the SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 2013.
    When I search any upgraded document in SharePoint 2013, the document's "Last Modified Date" was showing an incorrect value in Search Results page but other metadata of document like "Last Modified User" is showing the correct
    value so the problem is not with document crawl, something wrong with Last Modified Date property in Search results.
    I have seen below comment as answer but I didn't understand the solution to fix this issue for all upgraded documents.
    The most likely cause is that there is metadata on the documents that is set to that date which is overriding the other dates in the search result. SharePoint isn't particulary imaginative so it's got to be finding that date from somewhere.
    Do we have any solution for this issue? Is this issue will be addressed in SharePoint 2013 SP1?
    Note: No issues with documents, which uploaded after upgrade.

  • Emails from one account don't appear in the Inbox of Mail since upgrading to Mountain Lion

    I have a couple of email accounts - one is Gmail and one is a domain for my business. Previously Mail would show the Inbox and then a subfolder for each account under Inbox. Any messages received in the accounts would appear in both their own subfolder and also the Inbox. All my rules worked properly and life was good. Now, try as I might I cannot get my domain email account messages to show in the global/unified Inbox.
    Originally the domain email folder was totally separate to the Inbox. By changing the IMAP Prefix (removing 'Inbox') I was able to get the folder at least under Inbox.
    I purchased a new iMac and used Migration Assistant to move everything, therefore the problem persists. I had additional problems that my address book, rules and On My Mac folders didn't appear - but I solved that by finding the Containers folder and it is like a duplicate of Mail. I moved things from there to the Library/Mail and those particular issues resolved. But for the inbox issue, I have removed data from the Users/Library/Mail and from Library/Containers and started afresh - even deleted the Mail App and reinstalled from my original disc, but as soon as I set up the account it happens again.
    Recently I have also started receiving errors when sending to use the Connection Doctor. I don't know if all this is related to a bug in Mountain Lion, the way I have things set up, or my domain/ISP.
    Any suggestions on what to try, what it may be or ways around it would be great. I do have a Smart Mailbox for a Total Inbox, but of course the Rules don't work automatically on it. I'm getting sick of running Rules manually. Help please!!

    I called the support service and she told me to delete my email address and re-enter it. I have no problem since then on receiving and sending emails.
