Mail Notifications on MBP Cause Multiple Mails on iPhone

Hi Forum,
during all the problems with Apple Mail, to which i have had a lot, one of the errors has been multiple mails on my iPhone when opnly one appears on my Mini or MBP.
ive just had this problem now, but what i noticed was that my MBP notification for one email kept popping up repeatedly. I didnt realise any significance of this until i picked up my iphone and saw that the email that had these repeating notification banner on the MBp had reproduced itself 7 times on my iphone/!?!?!?!
Any ideas why? How? How to sort?
ive recently noticed that some email notification banners on MBP do constantly repeat...

What type of account(s)? (POP, IMAP, Exchange)
Is this Gmail, iCloud, Outlook.com, Yahoo, Earthlink.....

  • Is there any way of syncing mail on mac with mail on iphone so if you open an email on one it is marked as read on the other?

    The title speaks for itself. It's very anoying opening a message on the iphone and when you get to the mac all the messages you read allready on the iphone are not opened yet. Is there any way of syncing them so if you open a mail in iphone its marked 'read' in mac?
    Thanks in advance

    Such behavior requires an IMAP or Exchange account. Sounds like you have a POP account & that's the way that POP accounts work. POP was designed for an age when users had only one device...a computer, thus POP doesn't play well in the modern world where users have multiple devices.

  • Yahoo e-mail with iphone 6 Plus

    I have seen several posts about yahoo not being available through the native yahoo e-mail account.  It was working Thursday and then all of sudden has stopped synchronizging with my iphone.  I have researched this extensively and have tried a)reinstalling yahoo several times b)modifying the standard settings as advised in several posts and c) looking up solutions on apple discussions boards.
    What is most frustrating is that yahoo mail works on my ipad but not on my iphone - even when iphone is connected to wifi - same as ipad.  Is this an AT&T issue, yahoo issue or apple issue? 

    Hello, Teoakley1440.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I see you are experiencing an issue with Yahoo mail on your iPhone and have tried some troubleshooting steps with the issue persisting.  I would need clarification of the exact issue you are experiencing to provide a better answer.  However, there may be some troubleshooting steps that have not been processed in the article below.  I would also check with Yahoo to see if two-step verification is enabled as this can cause issues with mail.

  • Apple Mail, iPad & iPhone mail with GMail imap

    Hi,
    I'm using a MacBook Pro 13", a iPad 4 (actual retina) and an iPhone 4.
    I have issues using apple mail with my Gmail imap account :
    Only the inbox seem to be fully compatible with every device I use, but the outbox, for example, seem not to be the same box on all device.
    when I send a mail from my MacBook, the sended mail doesn't appear in the Mail's classical outbox but in a sub-box of Gmail box on the bottom, and I can't find any trace of the mail on iPhone/iPad.
    Is there anything I can do to make that I have the same Inbox, Outbox, Draft, Spam and Trash boxes in all my device and server.
    I tryied with iCloud mail account and this works perfectly !!
    If it's not possible, is it possible to set my icloud mail account to be with my own domain name as it is on my Gmail acount ?
    thanks

    On iOS, there is no local configuration for the Sent Mail. for Gmail, it automatically goes to the Sent Mail folder. But Sent Mail only shows up when you tap Gmail under the Account setings, not in Inboxes. For OSX, however, you may be able to configure a designated folder (that can be either on the local machine or on the account server). To be honest, I can't recall where that configuration is, and do not have the MBP in front of me. This article may help (or provide links to instructions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5361

  • Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"

    Mail on iPhone iOS 6.1.3 Opens Single Inbox by Default, Not "All Mailboxes"
    I have five e-mail accounts linked to my Mail app (an Exchange account, an IMAP account, and three Outlook POP accounts.  Everytime I close the app (close the app meaning double tap the Home button and close it) and reopen it, the Mail app opens the first Inbox on the list.  Unfortunately, it is an inbox I rarely use, the Exchange account.  I constantly have to press back to go to my "All Mailboxes" screen and then select the correct account Inbox from there. Of course, if I don't fully close the app, but rather tap the home button once and reopen it, the app opens where it left off. 
    Is there an easier way to make the app open to "All Mailboxes" screen by default vs. the first account listed alphabetically?  Or, perhaps the app opening the Exchange account because it thinks it has a priority over the IMAP and POP accounts?
    I searched this on Google but all I could find were forums from 2010 that were never answered.
    Thank you in advance!

    Thank you TomJones75.  When I posted this initially, I was running iOS 6.1.3 and not iOS 7.  I don't think editing the order of the inboxes was an option back on iOS 6.1.3.  With your tip, I was able to re-order my inboxes but it still defaults to the Exchange account when opened.
    I.e. first account listed under mailboxes is now an Outlook account and the 2nd is an Exhannge account. Mail still defaults to the Exhange account even though the Outlook is my default email address for the iPhone.
    Good tip though!  Thanks!

  • How to verify my account using my yahoo email? and how to open my apple id in what mail in iphone 4?

    how to verify my account using my yahoo email? and how to open my apple id in what mail in iphone 4?

    Hi stanlaw,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The information below should help you with this.
    Associating and verifying email addresses with your Apple ID
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE68
    How to verify the primary email address for your Apple ID
    When you first create an Apple ID (using your email address) a verification email will be sent to that address. If you sign in to your Apple ID from the link in that email, the email address will be verified as the primary email address for your Apple ID. You can also resend the email verification if the email address is not verified:
    1. Sign in to My Apple ID to manage your account information.
    2. Click Resend under Primary Email Address.
    3. Verify your changes by following the link in the email you will receive from Apple and signing back in to your account.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Happy Holidays!

  • HT1430 Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

    Since downloading updates for ios 6.0.1 can not send or receive mail on iPhone and iPad

    Is this on wifi or cellular data?
    Have you tried a reset? Hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Have you gone into the email settings and making sure the password are still there?

  • Can't send document attachments from Mail to iPhone

    ...well I can but not very well.... When using Gmail IMAP to sync everything, document attachments sent from Mac Mail to iPhone mail arrive as a bit of mess.. i.e. not as attachments but as text within the email itself, plus lots of garbled numbers and letters. Strange because if I send the same message from the iPhone back to itself or from webmail-Gmail it works fine. Its also just fine with photos and Pdf's. Help!

    No, sorry. false alarm.
    I just received a message, sent by Apple Mail 2.1.2 from OS 10.4.11, through POP, to an email-forwarding address, to my imap-gmail, and received from there (by IMAP) with Mail 2.1.2, too.
    Details of what got garbled below, just to say that sending the email not to the forwarding address but directly to [email protected] did not help either.
    the email was constructed like so:
    - some text, readable.
    - an attached PDF, space characters in name. this entire pdf was just printed in the email, meaning the postscript code and what have you.
    - some more text, that was still readable
    - an attached image that was probably pasted into the email, the name was "pastedGraphic.png". The image survived.
    - text, readable.
    - another PDF, raw contents printed into email body.
    - a zip file, spaces in name, made with the built-in archive maker of Tiger. Also here, the entire 'source code' of the zip is printed in the body copy.
    - some final bits of text. readable.
    On another computer, this email was not routed through a gmail account and was received by POP. not a single problem there. In fact, not ever.
    This is not very cool

  • Mail not showing up in Mac mail and iphone (Sky email UK)

    Hi,
    This relates to a post from yesterday which I thought was solved, if only… !
    If I check my mail on iphone it doesn't show up later in Mac mail. I have 5 accounts set up. 3 work fine, 2 don't. My Sky email account and a domain account that is set up for forwarding via Sky.
    It seems to be a problem with Sky. This other forum suggests putting "recent" into the Mac Mail user name, doesn't help. It also mentions setting up a IMAP Sky account. I have never used IMAP, always POP. If I set up IMAP on phone can I still get POP mail on my Mac?
    http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/sky-email-portal-log/17836-iphone.html#post158522
    This other forum suggests unlocking the email account, never heard of that. Sounds dodgy?
    http://customerforum.o2.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=1285&highlight=sky
    Thanks in advance, I've spent hours going through all this!
    Cheers!

    I had to make an IMAP account instead of POP. Now SEEMS to work…

  • Sync RSS feeds from Mail to iPhone?

    All I want to do is read my RSS articles on my iPhone... as far as I can tell the only way to do it is to completely change how I read RSS articles... and pay for an iPhone app.... Surely OS X using Mail and iPhone OS 3 can achieve this without too much pain? No?
    The best way I've seen so far is to have a new application on my computer and NetNewsWire seems to be the only thing I can find where I can sync the same rss articles on both my computer and phone.
    Please help... or please give me some good news that iPhone os4 will have native support for rss and osx mail. Coz I like Mail's RSS, but it seems a bit pointless now that I can't read them on the move.

    Try this, it is on another post but seems to be a work around, no worries though the iphone has limitations but those limitation come with a better product (in total) thank others.
    "After about a year of searching and thinking, i clicked my way into the solution.
    1) Subscribe to a feed if you haven't already and make sure they show in inbox.
    2) Go to Mail>Preferences>Rules
    3) Click "Add Rule"
    4) Fill in the description how you like
    5) Leave the any drop down menu alone
    6) Click the "Any Recipient" drop down menu and select "Message Type"
    7) Click the "Mail" drop down menu and select "RSS"
    8) Leave the "Move Message" drop down menu alone
    9) Click the final drop down menu and select the mailbox in the level under "Inbox" for example mine is "MobileMe."
    10) Press Ok and Apply.
    So by the end, my rule sounds like this:
    " If any of the following conditions are met: Message Type is RSS Article. Perform the following actions: Move Message to mailbox: MoblieMe."
    You should see your RSS feeds fly magically out of the RSS mailbox and into your email mailbox, which syncs with your phone.

  • Retention guarantee causing multiple DML operations to fail ?

    WARNING: Enabling retention guarantee can cause multiple DML operations to fail. Use with caution.
    ^^
    From the Ora Docs (10.2) Section - Introduction to Automatic Undo Management (Undo Retention) states the above.
    This would mean that other DML operations if requiring space in undo, would therefore fail with a ORA-30036 error. Is this correct understanding ?
    If so then one way to avoid this ORA error is to have autoextend defined. ??

    This would mean that other DML operations if requiring space in undo, would therefore fail with a ORA-30036 error. Is this correct understanding ? Not all DML operations requiring undo space would fail; only those transactions for which there is no space left in undo tablespace would fail. And yes this is one of the possible error messages that one can get.
    If so then one way to avoid this ORA error is to have autoextend defined. ??Yes but that is just pushing the brick wall two feet away. Besides, with auto extension turned on and inappropriate undo_retention parameter settings, you will have issues with disk space (if any).

  • What causes multiple entries in my calender events in my iPhone 4s?

    What causes multiple entries in my calender events on my iPhone 4s?

    Hi jeffpetit,
    Here is a link that will help you troubleshoot this issue with the camera on your iPhone:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Braden

    Hi were you able to resolve yours?
    I was very worried losing all my medical stuff on my iPad Air 2, plus i have nothing to use for the next day! So i have to try all the possible things i read on the internet!! And this worked on my part (Thank God, and thank you Google)
    Perform a hard reboot
    Hold down the Home button and Power button on your iPhone or iPad and keep holding them until you see the Apple logo. Once you do, you can let go. When your device boots back up, go ahead and check to see if the apps have started re-downloading. If they still appear to be stuck, continue on.
