Mail taking 1.4gb but all mail boxes are empty" Help!

I have clears all my mail boxes but  when I check ...settings..general... Usage... It says that mail is using 1.4GB ... How can this be when practically everything's  is empty apart from 7 messages with no attachment in the inbox? I'm using hotmail but with the iPad's inbuilt 'mail' app,
Thank you

My mail app used 2.4 GB and I couldn't reduce it by deleting all e-mails. What worked for me on my ipad was deleting my POP e-mail account entirely. I saved my settings for my account first (incoming and outgoing mail servers, etc.), then deleted it. I then had enough room on my ipad to download ios 8. After downloading, I re-created my POP mail account with the settings I wrote down, and it now uses 200 MB only. There is still plenty of room on my ipad now.

  • How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail"     and "Archives"?  To my horror, I've emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes  (and why do I need to enter this question three times?"

    How can I prevent deleted mail from ending up in "All Mail" and "Archives"? 
    To my horror, I emptied these boxes and lost all my mail from all my boxes .
    All mail also disappeared from my iPad, I suppose because they are "synched"
    (Also, no offense, but why do I need to enter this question multiple times?)
    Thanks for any thoughts.

    I'm having a similar but slightly different problem. My company just migrated to Gmail, and it's saving mail drafts every 30 seconds into my Trash folder.
    I unchecked the "Show in IMAP" preference in the Gmail settings, but my Drafts folder completely disappeared. I went back and checked it and the folder reappeared (with my drafts still in there).
    I like the idea if starting an email on my laptop and having the option of finishing it on my iPhone or iPad, so only saving Drafts locally would not be ideal.

  • IPad- on Yahoo pages the mail icon with the red number indication shows email.  When I tap, it asks me to sign in again. I do. It takes me to yahoo mail but there is nothing.  All the folders are emptied. All mail is either read, trash, or deleted.

    iPad- on all Yahoo pages the mail icon with the red number indication shows email.  When I tap, it asks me to sign in again. I do. It takes me to yahoo mail but there is nothing.  All the folders are emptied. All my mail is either read, trash, or deleted. Also, when I tap on the mail app on iPad home page, gmail is no problem but for yahoo I get error: no password for yahoo. Go to Mail Account Settings and enter password.  I'm stuck. Suggestions?  Thank you.

    Ask and you shell receive.....lol
    Go to your Gmail account in the browser.
    Hit the folder icon that brings up the folder selection.
    Scroll down to the bottom and select desktop version.
    The broswer will refresh and bring up your gmail account as though you were looking on it on the computer.
    The go to the upper right corner and select settings.
    Then go to forwarding and pop/imap
    Go look at pop download
    There you'll find 3 numbered lines
    Go to 1. Status
    And select enable pop for all mail
    Then save the settings
    Once you have done that you can go back to BlackBerry device settings and sync your mail or wait for it to sync it's self.
    Let me know how it works out.
    I just did it and it sync within minutes.

  • My ''clever mail boxes'' are empty after installing mavericks

    Hello,
    I work on an Imac 27" 16GB ram OS X 10.9
    After migration from OS X 10.8 to 10.9 everything looks well with no missing email in any account no emails problems but my clever mails boxes are now empty!  all intelligent boxes are completely empty!
    When I use the ''search'' it works just for the first results, but not for the details !! Because when I choose one of the proposed research results, it gives me always a blank page!
    Outside the Mail software, Spotlight works really very well
    I checked if nothing was fired in spotlight I made several rebuilding the spotlight index, but the problem persists, I do not know what to do?
    Does someone has an idea? thank you
    Thank you

    Hello
    Thanks a lot  !!!
    I had a look of what you wrote and I have found the problem
    In the spotlight system preferences, mail was checked in the
    search results, but library was not in the " confidentiality " or
    "Privacy" tab
    Thanks

  • Searching Gmail messages in Apple Mail 8.0 and hiding All Mail

    As recommended by several tech sites, I enabled All Mail from my Gmail account to show in IMAP, and Apple Mail 8.0 created a new archive under the Trash icon named "All Mail (Google)". It took several hours to downloaded all my 63000 messages and they are now all stored there (based on the mailbox size in Library>Mail) but still show (as aliases I guess) in the respective mailboxes that I originally assigned them to.
    Now, when I search for a message in Apple Mail, it finds it but shows its location as in "All Mail" instead of the mailbox (or label) that I had assigned it to. Is there a way to hide the All Mail archive so that the search function does not look there first?
    I used to have All Mail disabled in IMAP, and the search worked as I wanted, but the issue was that all my 100 mailboxes had to be synchronized every time a message arrived, was deleted, or was moved from any Gmail mailbox. This means that it constantly cycled in the background through my mailboxes and new mail sound notifications were delayed until all mailboxes had been synced.
    Enabling All Mail to show in IMAP has solved the issue of constant syncing to all mailboxes, but it has introduced the problem with searching my mailbox. It has also meant that every new message that arrives is displayed both in the Inbox and in the All Mail, and I don't need the latter.
    I opened a ticket a year ago about the syncing issues to all mailboxes with bugreport at Apple, and nothing has been solved. Thanks for any help on how to hide the All Mail Google archive without disabling All Mail in IMAP, or any other workaround to search messages by mailbox without having syncing issues.

    Still having this issue and accidentally hit solved.

    I haven't changed any prefs, only clicked Safari as mail was being launched.

    Sorry... Apple IDs cannot be merged...
    I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
    Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

  • I'm having trouble viewing pictures on any profiles including my own. All I see are empty boxes and have to click on each one seperatly to see what it is. There are no thumbnails.

    When trying to view pictures, as on profiles for example, all I see are empty boxes without any thumbnail picture inside. I have to click on each one blindly and wait for it to load to see what it is. I think it is some kind of setting i did myself and cannot find how to undo.

    With the site on display, click on the site identity button (for details on what that is see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Site+Identity+Button]) and then on More Information. This will open up the page info dialog.
    First select the Permissions panel, make sure that "Load Images" is set to allow (selecting Use Default should also work)
    Next select the Media panel, then click on the first item in the list. Use the down arrow key to scroll through the list. If any item has the option "Block images from (domain name)" selected, de-select the option.
    This should hopefully resolve your issue, but also see [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Images+or+animations+do+not+show].
    Some add-ons can also block images, for example if you have AdBlock Plus installed, make sure that you have not accidentally created a filter to block the images.

  • I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone.  How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them.  You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up und one account.

    I have three iPads and one iPod and one iPhone.  How can I message between them without sending the message to all of them.  You send the message to your email address but all of them are set up under one account.

    You can have a different receiving email in the Messages app on each device : Settings > Messages > Receive At . I'm not sure that there is a different way to have the message only go to one device.

  • When I print to pdf on Mac, the first page comes out fine but all the rest are magnified and shifted up and right

    I click File>Print. Whether I open pdf in Preview, save to pdf, or just print, I get this error. The first page is fine, but all the rest are shifted up and to the right and magnified.
    I've never been able to print out a multi-page document on Firefox with my new computer. I can copy/paste the address to Safari (gross) and it prints just fine, either to pdf or to a hard copy.
    Save me from having to use Safari!

    Making sure the fonts were embedded helped some, but it's still hit and miss. Sometimes I'm still missing pieces. One workaround I have found that works is just print one page without security to PDF, and then go back and replace the bad page(s) with them. So it will print properly, just not all the time. I have a copy of a word page and then what acrobat did to it. I just need to figure out how to post it here.

    Hello Jesslb23,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps first
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you have registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you have selected iMessage for use. Learn more about troubleshooting iMessage registration if the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. Learn more about troubleshootingcellular data or a Wi-Fi connection if a data connection isn't available.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while on a call if your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you are still unable to send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Verify that the contact you are attempting to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Which photos? If the missing photos were synced to the iPod then you have to get them from where you got them the first time. Synced photos are not in the backup that iTunes makes.
