mail is no longer deteted on server once received via mac mail- why is this happening?
even though box to delete mail once recived is ticked in mac mail account preferences

This box has always been ticked and in the past no copies remained on server, now for no reason I can find the copies are put in the trash folder on the server and have to be manually removed.
Maybe your isp changed what "delete from server" means and that's what they do now.  I would check with your ISP before blaming a mail program local to your machine.
If you want to try a "controlled experiment", set up another mail program,  e.g., Thunderbird, and send a message to yourself.  See if the message is treated the same way.  Note, Thunderbird, like most (all?) mail programs also has an option to delete messages from the server.

  • Mail is no longer deleted on ISP's  server once received via mac mail- why is this happening?

    Why is mail no longer deleted on ISP's  server once received via mac mail?
    The box to delete message from ISP's server once it is downloaded is ticked in Mac Mail account's prefrences and this option in the past did delete it from the ISP's server. It no longer does this, it only moved the copy from the ISP's in box to the trash so now the recived message has to be manually removed from the ISP's trash.
    Does Apple need to supply a patch to put this right?

  • HT201317 My photos are syncing from my iPhone, to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but it is no longer syncing to my computer (Microsoft, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?

    My photos are syncing from my iPhone to the iCloud PhotoStream and to our iPad, but they are no longer syncing to our home computer (Microsoft operating system, not Apple).   Why would this happen and how can I get it resolved?  I have since tried to remove and reinstall the iCloud application in my computer's control panel.  I have verified that I am using the latest Apple operating system and the latest iTunes.  I have reset my photo stream.  Not sure what else to try...   I was also having an issue with my calendar where it would sync from my computer to my iPhone but not vice versa.  Somehow in all the resetting that's resolved, but the photo issue is not.   Again - photos are going into the photostream, but not wirelessly being put into the file on my computer.

    To change the iCloud ID on your device you have to go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password to turn off Find My iPhone when prompted, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.

  • Ever since you instructed me to reset my firefox to defaults, I have dropped from the server 6-12 times a day, why is this happening,

    I had some problems, got a ticket issued, was told to reset all to defaults on firefox. I did that, now the last 2 days, I have had more than 12 times where firefox cannot connect with the server. It does work sometimes., but it seems to be getting worse. I am certain it is not the hardware in this case. It was not until I saw a search engine called Whitesmoke in the search field, that problems began. I went through all the recommended ways to remove and ultimately I was successful, I think, could the server problem be caused by this Whitesmoke search engine hijacker? Please provide a solution, I am sure I am not the only one experiencing this. My system has also slowed down to a snails pace since I reset to your defaults, what can be done about that?
    Thanks so much for your help.
    Kathy Vega

    A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

    My problem is after updating to Yosemite does my mail client any longer. I can not even open the mail, and when I "forced closes" mail and try to open it again to go in the entered settings running the colored wheels around and allows me only to forcing close again? does anyone have a solution to the above problem?

    You mean the default OS X mail app? Try reinstalling OS X Yosemite if that's the case.
    If you are referring to 3rd party mail applications, that's a compatibility issue. Some apps don't work in the new operating system. You have to wait until the developer updates the app, or you have to revert back to Mavericks to continue using it.

  • Help with imap gmail account via mac mail

    What are the best settings for gmail as imap in mac mail?
    I have my gmail account set up with mac Mail as an IMAP account.
    I notice that in the last few weeks?? not sure how long, my mac mail is taking forever to load.  I opened the activity window and it seems like there are so many things happening.  I did find an old account that was still had some activity and while I had delteed it, I did need to do a few more steps to get it out of the process.
    Now, as it still seems to take forever for my inbox to fully load, I began looking into the settings. 
    I am not able to change the settings for trash and I think saving the deleted messages to the server could be a waste of time.  This is the advanced setttings page
    the trash is 'grayed out' and won't allow me to uncheck the 'store deleted messages on the server'.  Anyone know how to change this?
    Also, I want to uncheck 'store sent messages on the server' as I think that will save a LOT of process activity, but gmail's directions for imap accounts says to leave it checked.  Not sure why, any thoughts?

    I'm not familiar with CalbeOne, but you can follow the instructions they provided at their site:
    http://help.cableone.net/HSD/mycableone/migrate/default.aspx
    You might also want to make sure you followed their transfer instructions.
    Build your accounts in Mail as per the POP or IMAP settings provided. When adding accounts to Mail, when you get to the first screen, you can hold the option key down when you hit continue for more options on the Mail configurations rather than the standard defaults.
    If you are viewing these accounts at the gmail website, then you might need to do some configuration there also. I'm not sure on how much they are integrated with gmail.

  • I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great

    I cannot send an email from my iPad 2? No problem receiving, why does this happen? Have tried the suggestions for setting up email and after doing the sync mail through iTunes receiving worked great but still cannot send? Any help would be great!

    The fact that you can receive means you have a valid e mail address, and have established the connection to the incoming server, so all of that works.  Since the send does not work, that means your outgoing server is rejecting whatever settings you used formthe outgoing set up.  Try them again. 
    Google your particular isp, and ipad and many times you will find the exact settings needed for your isp.  Or tell us here, and soneone else may be on the same isp.  Some mail services need you to change a port, or have a unique name for the outgoing server.  
    Kep trying.

  • I recently purchased an Iphone 6plus and I am receiving pdf attachments that are shown as winmail.dat attachments on the phone. When I check e-mail via  my macbook pro the attachment is a pdf and I can open it. Why is this happening?

    I recently purchased an Iphone 6plus and I am receiving pdf attachments that are shown as winmail.dat attachments on the iphone. When I check the same e-mail on my macbook pro the attachment is a pdf and I can open it. Why is this happening?

    I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
    i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
    so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
    hope this helps!

  • HT2500 I sometimes get e-mails where the sender sends me several PDF's attachments. These attachments appear already opened on the e-mail unlike most PDF's which I open by clicking on the PDF icon. Why does this happen?

    I sometimes get e-mails with pdf attachments. However instead of opening a PDF icon the body of the e-mail message has the PDF's already opened. Why does this happen? Is there anything I can change on my mac book pro to make these PDF's come thru with their individual icons which can then be opened.

    This is a long-standing design flaw in Apple Mail.
    Prior to Mavericks, this command in Terminal would stop the annoying behavior:
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
    This Terminal command stopped working in Mail 7.1 under Mavericks. I have reported this to Apple as both a feature request and a bug. You should too.

  • I have a 2 different .me e-mail accounts I was able to use one in my new mac but I can't create the other. Why is this happening? What can I do to enable de second one.

    Hi, my wife has 2 different .me e-mail accounts. She uses one of them on her old mac-mini, that account was .mac and then updated to .me, and so she sends and gets mail there. Now she a new mac mini and she is using her second .me account on the new mac but when I try to open (create) other it won't let me. In other words she wants both of the accounts to be on the same computer (the new mac mini) since she wants to to sell the old one. I don't have much experience with Mac and all this ID thing has me confused. Why is this happening? What can I do to enable de second mail account on the same computer?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Enter the details of her second account at system preferences> mail, contacts & calendars.

  • In Pages I used to be able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file".

    In Pages, In the past, I was able to edit a template and "save a version" to update the template. Now i have to rename the template to save the changes. Why is this happening? what happen to "save a version"? its no longer an option under "file". And I can no longer open the actual template, when template is clicked, it automaticaly opens an "untitled" version???

    In your description you say the first document opens as the Title you gave it.
    Templates always open as Untitled so it sounds like you have saved a regular document, perhaps into your templates folder which is possible.
    Since you have already worked on it and it has been previously saved, Lion will now Save for you and Save a Version is available
    The other document does open as Untitled so sounds like a real template and as Peggy has pointed out will not have either Revert nor Save a Version until you Save it and have changed something in it.
    This is a classic example of just how Apple's supposedly "simplification" of the process, is leading to confusion of what has happened. That the conditions and resulting actions from those conditions is so convoluted says it all.
    It all reminds me of the Monty Python Life of Brian sketch with the "simplified" John Cleese instructions to the class, as to if you have a brother in an older dorm whether to hang your hat and bag on the hooks provided. The trouble is Apple does not get the joke, that it is transforming itself into a frequently self contradictory bumbling bureacracy. The price of unchallenged self appointed geniushood.
    The incoherent half baked stumbling juggernaut has reached new triumphs with its edict on enforced Sandboxing on developers when it is unable to follow even its own instructions.

  • My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer.  Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1  iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

    My iPod Touch Gen 5 will no longer synch with iTunes on my computer.  Only change since this happened is update to iPod to OS 8.1.1  iPod synch remains stuck in "Step 8 of 8"

    On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
    Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
    You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
    What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
    My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.
