Mail on iphone not showing up in outlook

For some reason just recently I am receiving mail on my iphone, but it doesn't show up on my desktop which uses Outlook. I have had the Iphone for a couple of months and this has just started. I use gmail and I have the Incoming Settings set to never delete from server, but about 2 or 3 times a day I receive an email on my Iphone, but it never shows up on my desktop.
also I get this message quite often when I try to open an email;
This message has not been downloaded from the server.
any info would be helpful.
Thanks

Nathan,
I'm definitely using IMAP -- that's all I use so my mail is accessible no matter where I am. Also, all my other messages are on both computers and if the iPhone were set to POP some how, they would not have downloaded to the second machine, I'm pretty sure (unless I had told the iPhone somehow to keep the messages on the server which, as far as I can, see is not an option -- at least as currently configured).
The last time this happened I could not find the missing message anywhere on my laptop. This time I actually did find the message in my Trash on my laptop even though it was still in Inbox on my iPhone.
I don't know how often this is happening but I happened to catch it last night because last night I was traveling and some mail collected while I was on the road. My laptop was off and as soon as we arrived I took the dogs for a walk. While walking, I checked my mail on my iPhone and saw a message that needed a detailed reply. As soon as I got back home, I booted my laptop and the first thing I did was go looking for this message and I couldn't find it. If I hadn't been looking for it, would I have noticed it was missing? Maybe not, if I had already replied via the iPhone.
BTW, the unread messages before and after the message were retrieved by my laptop, just not the one I read.
Thoughts?

  • Contacts entered into iPhone not showing up in outlook

    If I enter a new contact in outlook it will show up on my iphone in seconds. If I enter a contact on my iphone it never shows up in outlook. It seems that its doing a one way sync. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

  • Notes created on iPhone or iPad not showing up in outlook

    I sync both my iPhone 5s and iPad Mini with Outlook 2007 on my computer.  The notes created on either the iPhone or iPad do not show up in Outlook, but the ones created on Outlook show up in both the iPhone and iPad.  The notes created on the iPhone do not show up on the iPad, and vice-versa.  I do not synce mail or notes with iCloud.

    More info on my problem:
    I tried to connect my camera directly via USB and it too will not show up in iPhoto. 
    Curiously, I can pull the SD card from the camera and stick it into the SD slot on my Mac Mini and it will then show up as a device in iPhoto.  So I can import everything from my camera's SD card.
    I tried importing into iPhoto from iPad, iPhoto, and camera onto my wife's iMac and everything works.
    So it's definitely something on my computer that is screwing up.
    Hope someone can help.....

  • Meeting request not showing up in outlook

    Outlook 2010 - meeting request received, is not showing up in Outlook inbox.  The new mail icon blinks briefly and the meeting dissapears, it does appear as tentative in the calendar, however does not give an option to accept/decline. 
    OWA works fine, and the meeting request also shows up fine in BB.
    No rules in outlook that affects this either. 
    Does anyone have any ideas on this?
    Update:
    tried outlook /cleanreminders - didn't help.
    Other reminders works, like the meeting & task reminders, just the initial meeting acceptance pop up is missing.
    The meeting can be accepted / declined by going into the calendar where the meeting shows up as tentative (as expected).
    This behaviour is on multiple machines (home/work) both exhibiting the same behaviour.
    Thanks

       Hi
           Is this user responsible for the resource?
          Check Tools/Options/Preferences/Calendar Options/Resource Scheduling to see if it is set to automatically accept.
          Can you find metting request in delete item folder?
          Can you delete user account on blackberry and run office again?

  • Blackberry Classic does not show read in outlook when read on device for emails

    The issue is that when an email is read on blackberry it does not show read on outlook on laptop and vice versa. Any ideas?

    Need to know what type of mail server you are using. If it is Outlook on Exchange then they both will sync up, ie both show read when opened. If you are using POP email then it will not sync, you will need to open your mail on both to show as read. This is not a BB issue, it;s the nature of the beast with any phone. Now if your email provider supports IMAP,then set your BB up that way and it will synce so all mailboxes look the same.

  • I have a new Mac and mail is showing thousands of incoming mails that do not show up on the computer.  does anyone know what is going on?

    I purchased a Mac OS x 10.9 in December. When using Mac Mail i get thousands of incoming mails that do not show up on my computer.  Does anyone have any idea what is going on?  this sure never happened on my old mac. i have three email accounts.  gmail, verizon and hotmail.

    I posted the same question a day ago with no response. I'm using an Acer x193w. You actually don't have to switch monitors to get it to work. Just make sure you turn off the monitor after shutting down the Mac mini (actually push the power button on the monitor, not just let it go to sleep). If you turn on the monitor (push the power button on the monitor), then power up the Mac mini, the monitor is recognized. The issue didnt exist with Snow Leopard for me. It only started after I started using Lion. Hope this issue gets fixed In a future OS update.

  • Yosemite mail v8.0 not showing how many messages are in a mailbox. For example inbox. Before upgrading it used to show how many messages you had in your inbox. anyone know how to switch "on" the number of messages?

    Yosemite mail v8.0 not showing how many messages are in a mailbox. For example inbox. Before upgrading it used to show how many messages you had in your inbox. anyone know how to switch "on" the number of messages? Or has this feature been removed?

    Agreed! This feature was very useful. If you find out how to turn it on, please let me know.
    Apple, there is plenty of room in the window header all the way across on both sides of the word "Inbox". It's important to know many messages are in the Inbox. It provides a progress meter when you're cleaning out mail and striving for inbox zero.

  • HT201269 Contacts on my iPhone not showing on my iPad

    Contact on my iPhone not showing on my iPad, how can I sync :)

    Well, you nailed that one, thank you.
    I had 3 accounts checked off: iCloud, Yahoo and "From my Mac."
    When I unchecked my Yahoo contacts from my iPhone, the contacts that were not syncing to my Mac disappeared from my iPhone - so that explains why some of my iPhone created contacts were not syncing with my Mac.
    Thanks again.
    However, this now begs some new questions:
    What is iCloud trying to tell me regarding that message in my account that says I can't review my devices unless I have iOS 8 and/or Yosemite?
    When I am creating a contact, how can I tell if it is being saved in Yahoo or iCloud accounts?
    How can tell what account a contact is associated with by looking at a previously created contact?
    How can I transfer Yahoo contacts to iCloud?
    And when I look at the accounts checked off under 'accounts' on my iPhone Contacts, what the deuce does "From my Mac" mean and imply?
    Everything used to work fine when I first set up my iPhone and my Mac.  What have I done to screw this up?  lol
