Mail has deleted saved e-mails that were moved to free-up account.

HELP! When I have rcvd the prompt "your mailbox is nearly full..." I have done what was suggested and moved e-mails to a separate folder called "Saves". Then insided that folder, I have created additional folders indicated the date of the save, ie: "Rcvd 02-22-06" "Sent 02-22-06".
Now I have noticed that:
1. Folders prior to 11-11-05 are now empty!
2. Activity Viewer shows mail is "deleting messages older
than...." (message is displayed for a fraction of a
second".
I thought that, if I followed the prompt about the mail box nearing capacity, moving messages to another folder (out of inbox) they would be secure. I mean, I followed the instructions in the auto e-mail from Apple. I'm not up-to-speed as to the differences between "New mailbox", "Smart mailbox", and "Smart mail box folder" and maybe that is what I need to learn.
I appreciate any and all comments, especially if it is a fix.

Hmmm, IMAP is how you leave everything on a Mail Server AND Sync, POP3 generally removes Mail from the server AND Sent mail is stored on your Mac, not the server.
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 these 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.
If that doesn't help & you can afford to redo any Mail Rules...
Trash these files...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/... MessageRules.plist and MessageRules.plist.backup

  • Can't see mails that were sent in Sent folder.

    I can't find the mails that were sent since Apr.14. No changes were made to Account Settings > Copies & Folders. No quota alerts are received either. I am on Thunderbird 24.2.0. Please help to fix this.

  • Ow do i delete pic from ipad that were downloaded from computer, ow do i delete pic from ipad that were downloaded from computer

    How do I delete photos from ipad that were downloaded from computer during a sync?

    Only photos taken with the iPad, copied onto it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad - either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view.
    Photos that were synced from your computer are deleted by moving/removing/de-selecting them from where they were synced from and then re-syncing.

  • How do I delete photos on iPad that were copied from a computer?

    How do I delete photos on iPad that were copied from another computer or SD card?

    If they were synced from a computer then you can't delete them directly in the Photos app on your iPad, you will have to connect your iPad to your computer and use the iPad's Photos tab in your computer's iTunes to change your photo sync selection to exclude them
    If the photos were copied onto the iPad from an SD card via the camera connection kit then you should be able to delete them in the Photos app e.g. via the Select button top right if viewing the photos in thumbnail view in Photos.

  • How can I move/copy scanned photos that were sent to my gmail account? I have not been able to move or copy to iPhoto.

    How can I move/copy scanned photos that were sent to my gmail account? I have not been able to move or copy to iPhoto.

    Hello SusieMacBook,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! 
    You can definitely get these photos into iPhoto if they are the correct file type (JPEG, GIF, TIFF, and PNG).  The way you import the photo attachments depends on where you check your e-mail.  The following article is for iPhoto 11 (but should work for previous versions as well).  It outlines how to import photos from Mac Mail, other e-mail applications, and web browsers, so just look at the section that applies to you. 
    iPhoto '11: Import a photo sent in email

    I hope this helps!

  • I have recently had to hand back my work computer having had my email account closed as well. I have opened a new account but having done this I cant open the books I have on my reader that were purchased through my old account, pls help.

    I have recently had to hand back my work computer having had my email account closed as well. I have opened a new account but having done this I cant open the books I have on my reader that were purchased through my old account. How can I open my books on my e reader now? Please help.

    Yes, I guess as the new account I had to open and then reassign my reader
    to purchase more reading material as the new account id has I guess blocked
    my reading of the previously purchased books already saved. Does this make
    sense?

  • Updating apps that were purchased with an old account

    How do I update apps that were purchased under prior email account? I no longer have this email address but the app updates keep prompting me for it.

    Apps are forever tied to the account used to download them.  That means they will always require it to update. The fact the email is no longer functional has nothing to do with this.
    If you still have the password for the Apple ID (not the email account) you can still use it.  You can also go to appleid.apple.com and update the email address for the Apple ID there to a functioning one so the Apple ID remains useable.

  • Script to search and relink linked image files that were moved?

    Good afternoon
    My indesign product catalog has links with a lot of different folders around in my hard disk, not a single folder. And to keep my catalog up to date I must package it.
    When I move my linked files in my computer because I change the folder structure or do some cleaning, my indd loses track of its linked files. Currently I need to relink one by one.
    Therefore I would like to find a script which would scan the hard disk with the all broken links in mind to detect their new location and relink. Yes I am a lazy person.
    Thanks for any clue,

    Thanks so much! I will try soonest.
    How does your script react in the unlikely case of duplicates?

    At least your honest about your laziness.... Here's your reward:
    Just a hint, don't select root of your volume, it will loop through every folder in existence, but key to this script is, if you know the general location, select into that folder hierarchy and the script will test for a relative path, otherwise, come back in a few days, and it will be finished.

  • Is there a way to retrieve delete messages and photos that were backed up onto my cloud?

    is there a way to retrieve deleted emails and photos that had been previously backed up onto my cloud?

    Not unless they were in the camera roll (camera roll photos are backed up).  If they were, restoring your backup should recover the.
    Photo stream photos are only kept in iCloud for 30 days, even though a rolling collection of up to 1000 photo remain on your device until deleted.  Whey you reconnected to your photo stream you only got back the photos from the last 30 days as older photos are no longer in iCloud.
    You can keep photo stream photos permanently by saving them to your camera roll.

  • HT4858 phone stolen, icloud on has photostream pictures need all that were on phone.

    hi i had my iphone stolen last night and i can access my icloud but it only has uploaded the photos off my photostream and not all the ones off the phone, is there anyway to get back all the photos tht were on the phone, they are very precious as they are mostly of my little boy.
    thanks

    Unfortunately, photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days even though your last 1000 will remain on your phone until you delete them.  If your computer can sync with iCloud, you could enable photos stream on your computer and access the photos from the last 30 days.
    Your iPhone backup will include your camera roll photos.  Restoring this backup to a replacement phone should recover them.  (Be aware that Apple will delete backups for devices that haven't been backed up for 180 days so you can't wait indefinitely to do this.)
    In the future, be sure to import all your photos to your compute while they are still in your camera roll, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083.  They way you'll have them.
