Mark as read

I have a number of books sitting on my bookshelf and sometimes I just cant remember which ones I have read completely.
Is there a way to mark the book as being read/
Thank you.

I came upon this thread by doing a Google search for:
iBooks "mark as unread"
A pity to learn I wasn't just missing something obvious...
I have thought about this for a bit, and here is my suggestion:
With iBooks version 1.2, there is no longer the hard-coded "Books/PDF" dichotomy.
Instead, there are "Collections"... Books and PDFs being only the names of the default collections.
Users of the iBooks app now have the option to create New collections, or Edit existing ones...
You could create a new collection... for example, "Books, Read" or something of the sort. You could (at your discretion) edit and rename the present "Books" collection to "Books, Unread" (not necessary, but it may tidy things up a bit.
Let me know if this works for you.

  • How can I read an email on my iPad and have it not be marked as read?

    I have an Exchange account set up on my iPad for my work email. My email is partly organized such that I look at unread emails (whether or not I've actually read them) for actions required. However, when I tap an email on my iPad, it is automatically marked as read as soon as it comes up in the reading pane. I do realize I can tap a button to have it marked as unread, but I want the default to be that an email is not marked as read. Any feedback?

    On the iPad, using the mail app, there is no way to do what you are asking without tapping the flag icon and marking the item as unread. Have you tried the OWA app for the iPad? It may have that functionality, but I haven't tested it as you need an Office 365 subscription with Exchange support to use the app.

    I have a  macbook, an ipad, and an iphone with the Mail app on all three synced through icloud, but when I read and delete emails on my phone, the inbox on my ipad is not update, so I have to go through and mark as read or delete messages again. How can I sync my iphone and ipad? (it seems like each is synced only to my laptop, so don't synchronize until I go home and use my laptop.

    POP: yahoo, aol, comcast/time warnder/road runner
    Imap: google, hotmail, and more including icloud.
    If you want to use multiple devices - move to imap, I would even say "exchange", but Google does not support free exchange anymore, since January of that year. So Ironically  Icloud or Hotmail would be my choices right now.
    To find out more about what happens to you, search on Google "difference between pop and imap"

  • Two computers share the same wi-fi Modem . When computer A reads a message it is marked as read on both PC's, not allowing computer B to see what must be read.

    Two computers share the same WI-fi Modem . When computer A reads a message it is marked as read on both PC's, not allowing computer B to see what must still be read. Email is Thunderbird.
    Please help, Thank you for this online support option

    Imap wasn't designed for this kind of multi user situation. It assumes that you the account owner will be using it to manage one account via multiple devices. So once you have read a message it has been read, regardless of which device you were using at the time.
    You appear to be describing a situation where you want more than one user to read each message, without anyone knowing if anyone else has read it or even dealt with it. Frankly, I can't imagine a set of circumstances where this workflow would make sense or be useful.
    You can do various things such as manually setting messages as unread, or moving them from one folder to another to indicate that they have been processed, but much of this relies on users being thorough and conscientious.
    You may need to be running your own server to do this sort of email message managing, if you really need to fork a message so it gets to multiple recipients. Managing which users see a particular message is a job for a server, not the end-user's email client.

  • Any difference in signature lock function, read-only field property, & signed tab "Mark as read-only

    Is there any real difference between
    1) simply setting a field to read-only in a custom script on the Signed tab of a signature field by:
    this.getField("field name").readonly = true;
    2) including the field in the "Mark as read-only: " list of fields on the Signed tab of a signature field
    and, 3) including the field in a call to the setLock() method of a signature field?
    As far as I can tell there isn't, but am I missing something? And if they are all the same, then since setLock() must execute in a priviledged context, it seems the harder way to get a read-only field.

    Hi Ron,
    It certainly sounds like you are on the right track.What version of Acrobat are you using, is it Pro or Standard, Mac or Win? I see where you mentioned the file was created in Acrobat X, but I'm not sure that the app that create the PDF file is the same version as the one you are using for editing.

  • Signing: Empty list in "Field Selection" when picking fields to mark as read-only on signing

    I have a PDF form with some signature fields. I am attempting to mark some of the fields in the document as read-only when the document is signed. This is what I did:
    1. Modify the "Signed" properties of the signature field.
    2. Choose "Mark as read-only" and "Just these fields" in the drop down list beside this option.
    3. Click on the "Pick" button to select the fields to be marked read-only when the user signs this field.
    In the "Field Selection" dialog that comes up, nothing is shown in the list.
    Am I doing something wrong? Is there something I need to do to add fields to this list, or should it be populated automatically allowing me to choose what I want?
    I noticed this feature is only available for Acrobat 6.0 and later. The compatibility level for the document I created is 1.6 (Acrobat 7 and later). It is created in Acrobat X.
    Just figuring my way around these things. Did a google search for any solutions, but couldn't find anything on this.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Ron

  • Mail on iOS 5 and iCloud sync (Mails are not marked as read when I read them on my MacBook)

    Hello everyone,
    I am an iOS 5 and OS X Lion User in Germany and I have following question concering Mail on iOS 5 and iCloud.
    I have a MacBook Pro 13" with OS X Lion 10.7.2 and an iPhone 4 with iOS 5. I also have an iCloud account (I switched yesterday from MobileMe).
    When I receive a new e-Mail it will be pushed immediately to my iPhone an my MacBook. When I open this new e-mail on my iPhone, it is immediately marked as read on my MacBook. But when I open the new e-mail on my MacBook, it is not marked as read on my iPhone. I have manually to sync mail first.
    Does anyone know if this feature is not supported on iCloud and iOS 5? Thanks for your help!

    Add me to the list of people having this problem.
    I have 1 Gmail account a 2 Google Apps accounts and this happens with all 3. If I read a messaging in Mail.app, it DOES get marked read on my iPod Touch, though.
    If I read the emails on my iPod Touch, BlackBerry, or Gmail web interface, the read status does not get synced back to Mail.app unless I close and re-open it.
    Not sure if this is an Apple issue or a Gmail issue, but it's VERY annoying and somewhat defeats the purpose of using IMAP.

  • Unified Accounts only lets me read one acount although it shows the email of the other account to click on but clicking on it does nothing nor marks it read..

    I have two accounts unified and both email address go to the unified account folder, but the one doesn't let me click on it to open it. If I double click it it opens but never marks it as read. The only way to mark these read is to go to that separate account and read it there.

    Are you sure that these Apps were not purchased using another Apple ID...
    If so, and you only have one ID, then Contact Customer Service...

  • Gmail: Mails sent to myself are marked as READ when using IMAP -how to fix?

    I just started using IMAP with my Gmail account and Apple Mail. But when I send an e-mail to myself (from my imap account to my imap account), the e-mail will of course go to my inbox but it will be marked as read.
    I don't have the option to "mark as unread" in either Apple Mail rules or Gmail filters, they both only have "mark as read".
    If I do it using Gmail webmail, then the e-mail is not marked as read, so I don't know if it's something Apple Mail is doing to my email? If I right-click it and "mark as unread", the message will be marked as unread both in my "inbox" and in my "sent mail". But I don't want to right click all my "to do mails" to make sure I see them.
    (I'm aware this is not the best workflow, but I like it..)

    Alas, I'm still having problems with Gmail. Now what happens is that I'm getting the "caution" triangle next to the account which indicates a problem. The error message when I click on that triangle is: "Unable to Connect There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “Gmail” or try again. The server error encountered was: The connection to the server “imap.gmail.com” on port 587 timed out."
    Also, something else is strange. When I look in the account settings window, my password is not there. It's blank. So I enter it. A few minutes later, when I check, my password is again no longer there.
    Regarding your suggestions to move the mail folder, I really don't want to do that because I have about 20 mailboxes full of important saved messages. I can't afford to lose those. Surely there must be some other way?
    Leopard is the worst OS upgrade in Apple's history, IMO. It's caused more problems for me than I could have imagined.

  • Is it possible to flag e-mails and/or right click an e-mail to mark as read/unread, etc. when using Microsoft Outlook Web Access in Firefox on a Mac?

    When you use OWA in something other than IE, you're using OWA lite and no--it is not possible to do either in OWA lite (well, new Exchange stuff makes my answer a little less emphatic but still: pretty much no). Thanks Microsoft. But this guy made it possible to mark unread/read and select all/none:

  • How do I set Mail to not mark as read every time I click on a message?

    I have an IMAP account which we share in the company between several of us. Basically, if there's a case that's unread its fair game. Thing is that every single time I go over a message with mail it's marked as read and sometimes I forget to mark it as unread again. On Thunderbird and other programs I can have a time limit before it is set to read. Is there such a thing with Mail or with any of its plugins?
    Thanks.

    Turn the Wireless receiver off on your laptop, then your laptop won't connect to your modem. Or, use the reset button on the back of the modem to reset your modem.

  • Why do the e-mails in my BT Yahoo inbox marked as read when the e-mail is delivered to my iPad mini?

    Why do the e-mails in my BT Yahoo Mail inbox mark as "read" when the e-mail is delivered to my new iPad mini..?

    Hi rowinator,
    I assume, you've activated the thunderbirtd junk-filter? Or do you use your own filters?
    May be there's another filter, executed afterwards, that marks the mail as junk? You can have a look into the filterlog.html in your TB folder, there you can see if one of your own filters caught this mails.

  • Mail with Gmail IMAP: All mail getting marked as read

    So other than being painfully slow, and just plain irritating, I have one huge problem with Mail (Tiger) and Gmail IMAP. All incoming mail is marked as read. The mail downloads, gets sorted into folders by the various rules, but the folders never show up with a number showing new messages. I have missed so many emails lately, I think I will have to go back to POP...or add a line to every single rule saying "mark as unread".
    Is there a simple solution to this problem I am overlooking?
    Thanks...Sam

    Yeah, the stupid part is that all SPAM comes marked as unread. So I get to see that I have spam, just not legitimate mail. Ugh.

  • Mail being marked as read automatically

    I have iOS 6.1.4 on iPhone 5 and multiple mail accounts.
    Gmail or Exchange - mail is being marked as read automatically even if I have not touched the mail. Not sure why this is happening but it is definitely an issue. I also beta tested version 7 beta 2 ios and it does the same thing.
    with 5 minutes of the mail running on the iphone and no user intervention mail files are marked as read. The read is then synced to Gmail and Exchange accounts so you miss mail as all are marked as read.

    I have stumbled across and answer to a similar question posted in 2012.
    Search for :
    How do I stop Mail auto-reading emails
    It is not possible apparently.

  • My Mail is marked as read

    All of my mail (in Mail) is marked as read within a very short time of receiving it. This is obviously very frustrating. I have Mail on my iPhone, iPad, Mac desktop and laptop. My account is synced with Google (Gmail). I have looked through all the settings in Mail and Google and don't see how I can adjust this. The most recent things I have done that might have affected this is to cancel a Plaxo account and added an iPad to my collection. What can I do?

    This is happening to me too on one e-mail account setup in mail (of seven). It's a OSX (mail) Server that is running the mail server in question. The Google apps e-mail accounts don't have this issue.
    Edit: Just realized this was osx 10.7 - I am on 10.9.

  • E-Mail Not Marked as Read on Phone

    Hello,
    I have a 9650 with BIS on Sprint. I get my e-mail through OWA. When I open or mark as read an e-mail on my phone, my Outlook inbox on my desktop is updated accordingly. However, when I open an e-mail on my desktop, my inbox on my phone is not updated to show that the e-mail has been opened. I have to go in an mark as read all of the items, which is a royal pain.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks a lot.
