Mail.app does import folder items and items in folder are not displayed

I had a hard drive crash on my G4 Powerbook. I installed a new harddrive and recovered the data from the old drive....hurrah.... but in a folder I store all my various internet information email(receipts, program info etc) I lost all the emails. I found them in the folder but they aren't shown in the program. I took the backup folder and tried to import them to the folder. Still they don't show up. Should I reinstall mail????

HI, thanks for the help in the past. I've tried several methods of fixing my "lost mail" problem. Once again, I had a hard drive crash replaced the hard drive and copied back the mailbox folders in the library path so MAIL could find them. 2 mailboxes had some messages displayed but not all. I found this out by clicking on the files under the xxxx folder with the emix extension. New messages existed that were not displayed in Mail under the xxxx folder. I tried rebuilding...this was a mistake because NO messages appeared. I tried importing from different back ups and some messages displayed but again, not all of the messages with the emix extensions. I can click on individual emix files and they display but are not searchable nor displayable in MAIL. I tried importing messages but import only worked when I only had the mbox file in the xxxx folder however still not all of the emix files were displayed.
My question is now very much more direct: how do I import the emix files back into mail so they are displayed. Click and drag does not work.
Thanks

  • Synced bookmarks can be searched for and found but many are not displayed on the complete scrollable bookmarks list.

    How odd. I've a somewhat complex bookmarks menu hierarchy, perhaps two dozen folders each containing between five and fifty bookmarks as well as a sub-folder or two. All of this is synced and displayed correctly with the bookmarks tab in the app, except for some of the more recent bookmarks that not organized into folders, and are floating inside the bookmarks menu. Of thirty or so, only five appear. Yet, when I search for them within the app they are found, including several bookmarks made today. These are bookmarks contained in the bookmarks menu but not in any particular folders. Clearly they are synced, yet the entire contents of the bookmarks menu are not displayed correctly in the app. Syncing otherwise seems swift. I've less than 600 bookmarks in total. I seek not to search for specific bookmarks but to browse my entire collection, so you can sense my frustration. I'd call this a bug. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    No I didn't change anything deep beneath the hood. My problem didn't apply to the URL, but to the name of the link or bookmark header or whatever you would like to call it. (When hitting Ctrl + D there is a Name field). I only got ???????? instead of chinese characters in the name. Also for e.g. www.cntv.cn ...but maybe all China is not in the whitelist either. ;-) But anyway, this was not the real problem for me.
    Apparently I was wrong as after a reboot of the computer it worked. The solution seemed to be to add Chinese to the language list. I don't know why it was not enough to restart Firefox?
    Now I only have problems to show chinese characters in the name field of my external link manager... But I guess it is not an issue for Mozilla.

  • After upgrading to mountain lion, i find that my mail app does not have a "VIP" Tab. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what it is about?

    after upgrading to mountain lion, i find that my mail app does not have a "VIP" Tab. Was wondering if anyone else has this issue and what it is about?

    First, select sender(s) as VIPs. Then the VIP category will appear.
    To select a sender as a VIP, open an email from that sender, then hover over their name and a star icon will appear to the left. Click the star, and that sender will be set as a VIP (and the category will appear in the pane on the left).

  • Even after the Mavericks Mac Mail update and showing my "All Mail" folder, Mail.app is still acting weird and slow.  Any further suggestions?

    Even with the recent Mac Mail Mavericks update and showing my "All Mail" Gmail folder, Mail.app is still acting funky and slow.  Any further suggestions for getting Mail.app back to it's pre-Mavericks state?

    Your description of the problem is rather vague, but I'll take a guess at what you mean.
    Quit Mail if it's running. Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    sqlite3 L*/C*/*.mail/*/L*/*/*/C*.db vacuum; sqlite3 L*/M*/*/*/E*ex vacuum
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
    You should see a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) appear below what you entered. If not, press return. You can then quit Terminal and relaunch Mail. Test.
    Note: This procedure will have no effect unless you quit Mail when you begin.

  • Question RE: Button Items and Item Buttons - from "Bug Tracker" Demo app

    I've retrieved and installed the "Bug Tracker" Demo app from apex.oracle.com and installed it in my space as I've interest in recreating the custom search bars this application contains (I can't use interactive reports because it appears a bug prevents the ability to remove the "hide column" functionality which is a requirement for me).
    I'm perplexed with how the developer of this demo app was able to create an item of type "button" (not normally available as an item type when creating items) and how buttons were created with the sequence value of "Item" versus a sequence number.
    How do these interact?
    I'm a fairly new developer and as these methodologies are not readily apparent with 3.2's "normal" functionality, I'm quite intrigued to understand how this was accomplished.
    I've been looking at this demo app for 2 days in hopes of learning this on my own - still at it but not there yet. Any help you kind folks can provide would be certainly appreciated!
    Thanks!
    Paul

    Dan, thanks for the reply!
    I actually figured this out shortly after submitting this post (and confirmed by your post). I had never used a button as "Create a button displayed among this region's items" (versus "Create a button in a region position") before. That apparently is the difference.
    My inexperience simply did not allow me to recognize the difference in how apex treats how buttons are created given this choice differentiation.
    One more notch in the belt!

  • Windows 8.1 Mail app does not sync with the Office 365 account

    My company has recently switched to Office 365. Windows 8.1 Metro Mail app does not work with Office365 account. When I switch to IMAP it works but that is soon going to be disabled and is not compliant with the company policy.
    I can add the account and it also pushes the security policies but it does not sync email at all. Says account is not available. The tablet shows up on the mobile devices on the office 365 and I could also remote wipe it.
    It seems everything works except basing email sync. What could be the issue?

  • Mail.app doing periodic unauthenticated smtp checks

    Apparently, about every 10 minutes, Mail.app tries to connect to my outgoing SMTP server but without authentication.
    First off all I have no idea why Mail.app does it, maybe to keep something alive? Would make sense to do that with my IMAP account but nog SMTP.
    Secondly it does that without authentication so my server mail error logs are filled with entries like:
    2014-06-12 12:26:25 plain authenticator failed for hiddenhost.nl [82.217.xxx.xxx]: 535 Incorrect authentication data (set_id=[email protected])
    And looking at the logs I'm not the only one. (I host many domains for customers, a lot of them using macs)
    Most people don't notice this but my server also has a bruteforce attack logger and when a certain ip address tries to do too many invalid logins the ip address gets blocked in the firewall. And then my customers notice it since they can't access their mail again and start calling. I disabled this temporarily but off course that's not the right solution.
    Is there some way to disable those SMTP checks? Because they are very annoying and breaks the internet! (kinda)

    Still an issue in Yosemite too. Am I really the only one having this problem? Those periodic SMTP check are bad. I don't mind Mail.app checking to see if things are still alive but at least do it properly. It seems Mail.app sends the username but not password (or at least not a valid password)

  • Mail.app keeping IMAP connections alive and active

    Hi all,
    I was having some issues with the MySQL databases on my website, so I gave my hosting provider a call.
    It seems that Mail.app is opening up an IMAP process for each of my 24 e-mail accounds, and keeping it alive for as long as Mail is running. According to the representative I spoke with, e-mail clients, even with IMAP should start a process, synchronize the mail, and close the process, and all of this should happen in around 0.2 seconds.
    The problem is that there is a cap of 20 processes on my hosting server, so Mail's behavior is basically causing lots of problems - as long as mail is open and all of my accounts are enabled, my website can't access my MySQL databases.
    Does anyone know of a solution to this problem? I used to have "Automatically synchronize mailboxes checked" and tried unchecking this for troubleshooting purposes, but the same thing still happens.
    Any ideas or suggestions will be very appreciated.
    Thanks!

    From what I've read, imap is designed to create a persistent connection, and keep it open until you quit the program.
    But there's another problem which might be getting in your way: mail.app does indeed create persistent connections, but then rather than re-using them, it seems to open another new persistent connection each time it checks the mail. So the processes never close, and they start to pile up as new ones are added.
    What's more, mail opens multiple connections per account. Looks like it opens 4 connections to check each separate account, and those all get left open until you quit the program.
    The reason they do this is, so they say, "performance". More connections = faster mail. But it's a real headache when it doesn't close old processes before opening new ones.
    Also an option to limit the number of connections made per account would be welcome.
    Thunderbird does exactly the same thing, by the way.

  • Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine, mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar.

    Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.

    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
    Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
    If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.

  • Mail app won't stay open and keeps crashing

    I use iPhone 7.1. Every time I open my Mail app, it crashes. I don't know why.
    I have maybe 700,000 unread emails, fourteen different email accounts (8 Gmails, 2 iClouds, 2 Gmx's, and 2 AOLs, all of which are linked together through my Mail app), over 16,000 photos, and 0 bytes of free space left on my phone.
    I've had my phone since 23 May 2013.
    I bought it off Amazon for $161.
    How can I get my Mail app to work again? Whenever I open the Mail app, it stays open for about 60 seconds, then a black screen appears, and the Mail app crashes.

    Hi don290022,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's Mail application becoming unresponsive, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

  • Item and Item description as Levels ?? In Demantra

    I have Item defined as the lowest level and its description also being defined (as level description) in oracle Demantra.
    From the staging table - I bring in item and item description.
    In the Oracle Demantra seeded model - I find that Item has been defined as the lowest level - (has description with the same item code as its reference in staging table). As parent I have another level defined "Item Description" and this has the description as in the staging table.
    Is it required - why is item description defined as another level rather than it should be the description of the item level ?
    Can somebody throw some light on this.
    thx and rgds,
    Pankaj
    Edited by: pankajkum on May 1, 2009 3:09 PM

    Hi Pankaj,
    As Karthi has sighted, whenever we talk about any upper level its a grouping of its child level members. There is always being Many-to-One relationship between the child level members and parent level members.
    Comming to the seeded Demantra data model that Oracle has provided, Item Description is taken as an attribute for item level. Similarly You can see other attributes like "Media Type" and "Platform".
    The purpose of making these attributes as parent levels is to use them in a unique Demantra feature called "Attribute Based Forecasting". As you might have read that Demantra also supports attribute based forecasting, we have to convert these attributes in parent levels and have to set them as item-location combinations in the Forecast Tree definition. The forecast result you will see will be different from what you see when you use the default Forecast Tree definition.
    Hope this answers your query.
    Milind...
