Mail folders moving from Yahoo to Gmail

I just got a new mac yesterday and have been running into many problems with it. Today, I noticed ALL of my folders in Yahoo had moved to my Gmail and some important ones (tax folders) were completely missing. Yahoo is not currently showing ANY folder where once I had about 15, now Gmail has about 10 of those folders and the rest are gone. I can even scroll and click on which email the saved messages were to and it was my yahoo but they're in freaking Gmail???!!!! I don't know what to do and I'm missing some very important folders. I'm thinking this is a Mail application issue on the new Macbook Pro. I've logged in to the website and it's the same, so I know its not just showing in the mail app. It's showing the same thing in Mail on my iPhone as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Austin

How do i change my email id to be synced with i cloud.i basically changed over from yahoo to gmail after i created my apple id?

how do i change my email id to be synced with i cloud.i basically changed over from yahoo to gmail after i created my apple id?

In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

How can I download e-mails in subfolders from yahoo mail to Thunderbird?

I am using Thunderbird 31.3.0. Is there a way to download e-mails in subfolders from yahoo mail, not just from the inbox?

Thanks, Matt! For those looking for the yahoo mail IMAP settings, you can find them here: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/mobile-mail/imap-server-settings-sln4075.html
POP server settings are here: https://sg.help.yahoo.com/kb/mail-for-desktop/pop-server-settings-sln4724.html

Yosemite: Mail folders moved and messages disappear

OS X 10.10.1 on a Mac Mini 2.6 GHz, 8gb RAM, 1tb HD, Gmail setup as IMAP in Mail, personal mail folders sorted alphabetically
Intermittently while moving Inbox messages to personal folders, or opening messages in personal folders, the folders will drop to the bottom of the folder list and messages within the folders will disappear. Rebuilding the mailbox will usually make the messages appear, however the personal folders have to be moved back to their original positions. These instances have occurred frequently enough to be annoying and time wasting. Please advise. Thanks.

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
          Envelope Index
          ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK. Typically, the process takes a few minutes, but it may take hours if you have gigantic mailboxes. In that case, you may be able to speed things up by temporarily adding your home folder to the Privacy list in the Spotlight preference pane. Remove it when Mail has finished importing.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Mail folders empty on Yahoo account

I have a Macbook air running on Yosemite 10.10.1 and an iPhone 5S running on iOS 8.1.2.
On both devices, since few days ago, some Yahoo! Mail subfolders do not show any messages, as if they were empty.
I have tried to delete the Yahoo! Mail account on both devices and to create it again, but it doesn't work, a couple of folders, that were running perfectly before are now empty.
Additionally, if I have an email in the Inbox and move it to one of the failing folders from any of the two devices, it appears to move correctly (actually it becomes the only displayed email in that folder on that device), but then it is not visible on the other device.
I have checked the Yahoo! Mail web page and all the folders appear to be running properly.
Can somebody help me to fix this problem?

Hi, Drillo73.
Did you configure you Yahoo Mailbox account on your iPhone via "Mail, Contacts,Calendars" app ?
During a setup process there were 2 options - IMAP and POP. Which one did you choose?
Try to recreate Mail Account by choosing OTHER instead of YAHOO.
Provide all the credentials as per below.
The incoming mail server name is imap.mail.yahoo.com
The outgoing mail server name is smtp.mail.yahoo.com
In the Advanced settings turn on SSL:
The incoming mail server port is 993
The outgoing mail server port is 465
Both mail server names require SSL.
The outgoing mail server requires authentication using the same username and password that you used for the incoming mail server.
Please let me know about the results.

Folders moved from Drive C to Drive D... Need help!

Dear All,
Recently I had moved my iPhone Ringtone and Music original folders from drive C to drive D. Apparently, when i tried to sync my iPhone with iTune, it says,
"Are you sure you want to sync music? All existing songs and playlists on the iPhone "iphone name" will be replaced with songs and playlists from your iTunes library."
But when checked, even the iPhone Apps folder in my laptop is also empty, because it says the same thing.
So can someone please advise me on this?
Thank you very much in advance.

Why won't Mac Mail receive messages from Yahoo?

I use Mac Mail as an IMAP on both my MBA (OS X 10.6.2) and MBP (OS X 10.6.8). My MBA also syncs with my Dad's MobileMe account. About 4 weeks ago my MBA spontaneously stopped receiving mail from my Yahoo account (and sending...sometimes). It thinks a lot and sometimes even shows me it's about to start downloading emails but it doesn't follow through and they never show up in the inbox. The sound for no mail goes off when it finally finishes thinking. Now my MBP stopped receiving mail today as well - same symptoms. (My Dad's MobileMe is the only email account still working.) I can see the new emails on the server and my BlackBerry so my guess is that it's a Mac Mail problem. What gives? How do I fix?

Pressed "Rebuild" and nothing happened.
Did you have that account highlighted?
Well, don't know much about Mail in 10.7, but here's my 10.4/10.5 notes...
Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

Hardly any junk mail - mail is forwarded from Yahoo

I decided to start using .Mac mail today. I've been using Yahoo as my account. For now I'm keeping my same email address so I set Yahoo to forward all mail to my .Mac account.
I usually get 100+ junk messages a day. For most of today, I've only gotten a couple and those are nothing like the crazy type of junk emails I get.
I have the preferences to not keep the Junk on the server, so in the Junk mail showing up on the computer is just a couple.
I'm assuming the Yahoo is forwarding all the junk but where they heck are they.
Only care so that I can view to check when messages are improperly marked as junk AND I wonder if there are other emails that are not getting to me.

Hello, again -
After reading discussions about a similar topic, I figured out how to fix the problem. Somehow, the .mbox suffix had been removed from the Home>Library>Mail>junk folder.
I added the suffix, and now it works. Where it went in the first place, I don't know.

TS3988 Can someone please help me?   I have an Iphone 5 and Love it except for one thing. I changed email address from yahoo to Gmail and updated it on my Apple ID at Apple. Apple recognizes and accepts this change but Icloud won't update the new email

I have an Iphone 5 and Love it. Except for one thing; I recently changed from ymail email account to a gmail account. I updated it on the
Apple/ Itunes site and it does accept the change. I can still access the APP store and Itunes.
However, sometimes I get a pop up box from Apple showing the old email address and asking me to sign in..... I hit cancel and move on.   But, now Icloud keeps popping up promting me to sign in and it shows the old email which I don't have anymore.... I tried signing in with the old info to clear it off screen of my phone but, it doesn't allow and I hit cancel and it goes away. only to appear later again.... This is so frustrating and annoying.    Is there any way to get the Icloud to update the email address with my Apple ID log in info--without having to delete stuff or lose things on my phone?
Please help?

Has my mail been migrated from Yahoo to BT Mail?

I have heard nothing since the email in the spring about being migrated to BT Mail, but I had to set up a sub-account for my husband yesterday and it seems as if I am still on the Yahoo system. I expected that this would have happened by now?

Afraid not - It is still in progress and no one really knows how may existing customers have been successfully migrated. If you open the webmail interface and get a Yahoo interface, then that address hasn't been migrated. (you don't necessarily even have all your email sub accounts migrated along with the primary).
When you are being migrated BT should alert you. you might like to have a good read on the Email section of the community to see what various people have discovered about how to survive the migration as painlessly as possible. Then do feel free to ask whatever questions you like and people here will try and answer you.
If you usually collect mail by IMAP or pop3/smtp, then you should make sure you have adjusted the settings in your email client to match those required by the BTMail system. That method of collecting mail should be the most seamless during the migration (should!!) - as long as you have the right settings, then there should be no need for password changes on your email client and the same settings that work before migration will work afterwards (as long as you have done the recommended port/SSL changes already).
If you usually use webmail, then you have to wrestle with BT's rather complicated BTID login instructions relating to the migration as that login method WILL change when you are migrated. But there is help here to guide you through.

Can you move mail folders from an old .Mac account to a new .Mac account?

I hope someone can help since even the Mac Genius at the Apple Store nor Applecare seem to know.
Due to massive spam to my .Mac account & it's alias accounts I opened a new .Mac account before my old account died. However, without any answers my old account died last night. Which probably doesn't help.
1. Is there a way to move my mail folders in 'mail app' from my old .Mac account over to the new .Mac account?
2. In 'mail app' > preferences > add account > the pop-up box for the new account automatically shows my old .Mac account information, full name, description, user name. But, if I replace that information with my new .Mac account name and info no one can tell me if that automatically delete any mail folders/information from the old account.
Basically I'm lost because no one seems to understand how the system works, not even the Mac Genius.
Any ideas?

You're welcome.
Second, because I couldn't get any real answers somehow last night I managed to drag & drop my 'mail app' mail folders onto my desktop. At least I have it there, LOL.
What do you mean by Mail.app mail folders? There is a single Mail folder which contains all Mail.app data (account folders, mailboxes, rules, junk mail learned settings, etc.) except for the Mail.app preference file which stores all account information and is stored in your Preferences folder.
Did you place a copy of the entire Mail folder located at Home > Library > Mail on the Desktop?
The question is can that mail folder from the desktop be placed into mail with the new .Mac account? Some of the old folders were from "on my mac" and some with .Mac & the server so not really sure what moved to the desktop. But, at least it's something.
The answer to this question is no. User created "On My Mac" location mailboxes are stored locally on the hard drive and are not associated with any account. User created "On My Mac" location mailboxes are located in the Mailboxes folder at Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes are are not deleted when deleting an account or changing existing account information with Mail.
When creating an account with Mail, an account named folder is created within the Mail folder at Home > Library > Mail named by the user name and incoming mail server for the account. The associated account mailboxes are located within the account named folder with the exception of locally stored mailboxes for a .Mac type account or IMAP account. Locally stored mailboxes for a .Mac type account or IMAP account are located in the Mailboxes folder at Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes. This would be the account's Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk mailboxes if these mailboxes are not stored on the server which is available under the Mailboxes Behaviors tab for the account preferences.
Since a .Mac type account is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way, you have the option to store Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages locally on the hard drive with Mail for the account preferences.
Were you accessing your old .Mac account as a .Mac type account with Mail and if so, what were/are your settings under the Mailbox Behaviors tab for the account preferences for Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages - storing these messages on the server or locally on the hard drive?
Since a .Mac type account with Mail is really an IMAP account and behaves in the same way, messages in the account's Inbox mailbox remain on the server and since Apple/.Mac has now cancelled this account, messages in the account's Inbox mailbox on the server have been deleted.
When you open the 'mail app' >file>add account> the pop-up box automatically has the information in there from the expired .Mac account.
Is your old .Mac account information still available at System Preferences > .Mac under the Account tab?
If so, this is where the Mail.app is getting the old .Mac account information which needs to be changed to your new .Mac account information.
If you placed a copy of the Mail folder on the Desktop for backup purposes, you can can create your new .Mac account with Mail which should not change or affect your existing .Mac account with Mail but you cannot "merge" account named folders and mailboxes between two accounts.
You can use the Import Mailboxes feature to import the old account's Sent mailbox if you did not store Sent messages on the server for your old .Mac account preferences.

Moving "On My Mac" Mail folders to another account not working

Hi,
I recently bought a new iMac (2 weeks ago). I originally setup 3 mail accounts on the main user ID (created by the migration assistant software from my old laptop. I imported the mail folders manually from the old Thunderbird and all was good.
I then decided to leave the main user account for my wife, create my own user account and put mu POP mail account in my user account. Again all good.
Now the problem, I want to move the "On My MAC" mailboxes from the main user account to my accounts mail. No matter what I do, it doesn't work.
1st attempt: I exported the mailboxes to the public folder, changed users and tried to import them. It seemed to work (selecting Apple Mail), saying the mailboxes would be in the Imported mailbox but nothing at all shows up even after restarting mail (it doesn't even show "on my mac" I checked the actual Mailboxes directory and only the outbox is there.
2nd attempt: I tried copying the mailboxes from their original directory on the disk to the new accounts mail folder. After a restart, the mailboxes appear under "on my max" but there are no mail items showing ?
Can anyone help, it's driving me mad !!!

Hi Glenn,
Might I please dredge up this older topic?
I want to "import' or "transfer" my Mail accounts and many, many mailboxes from my EXISTING laptop to a new Lion BUILD that I am constructing on an external device. Both are 10.7.4 of course.
I have been constructing a fresh BUILD of 10.7.4 on an external device--reinstalling all my apps as oppposed to a Migration, which brings everything across in one big sloppy mess. I have issues with some defunkt HP software that won't fully uninstall--and I just want to start fresh this time. (there's remnants panther, tiger, leopard, and SL from years of migration) My rebuild is not live yet, it doesn't have any accounts. I did this already on another 8core I use for work--performance and stability has increased.
As for MAIL, I understand everything in your post about local vs iMap. In my case, I have about 25GB of mailboxes and attachment both On My Mac and on iCloud. (I realize this is redundant and that iClould keeps a local copy).
Of course when I startup from the external BUILD device (its on a Lacie portable FW drive), launch MAIL and then try to import mailboxes, there is no way to see the main Library on the EXISTING OS--so I can't navigate to that that Mail folder that contains the stuff. I'm interested in knowing if there's any Console or Terminal command that will reveal that Library folder on my laptop.
Or I'll do it the way you describe above, though I'm a bit suspicious. My gut tells me I'm better off importing the mailboxes--because I would be concerned there's other Preferences and supporting files that wouldn't get moved in that big transfer. Will all my attachments come accoss?
While we're on the subject, any posts or white papers you can direct me to that will show me how to move my iPhoto libary in this similar manner?
thanking you in advance Glenn
