Messages missing from all sub-folders after deleted one sub-folder

I had a folder with sub-folders ... one of which had a large number of emails. I deleted one sub-folder because I no longer wanted it and any of the emails. Now when I go to another folder in that sub-folder, it only has one message ... presumably those received after I deleted the sub-folder. When I did a search on the "from" address, I see a large number of subjects but when I click on the subject all I get is the following:
"The message from xxx concerning yyy has not been downloaded from the server. You need to take this account online in order to download it."
Firstly, these messages were downloaded and secondly the account is online.
It looks like deleting a sub-folder deletes the contents of all other folders in the main folder. This is terrible and certainly not what I understood should happen. I saw another message about losing emails when an account is deleted, but I move all of my emails out of the account folders immediately.
I suspect I won't be able to recover these messages but this is very scary. Can anyone explain what happened ... and let me know whether it is possible to recover them?

I have fixed my mail folders so I thought I should document what I did for the sake of others who might have the same problem.
When I deleted the sub-folder, Mail screwed up the indexes for all of the sub-folders in the same folder. I used Finder to look at the folders and the mail items were there too. So I decided to try to import them back into Mail and that worked. It fixed up the indexes and everything is there. There were a few duplicate entries ... but that was easy to fix.
I'll report a bug.

  • Voice messages missing from all platforms

    Hello,
    I'm using the most recent version of Skype on my MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite, and also have it on my iPhone and iPad. Yesterday I received 3 voice messages from clients, having gotten emails saying so, and none of the voice messages appear on any platform. All show the missed calls, but none of the messages. These callers definitely left messages as they always do, but nothing appears on the desktop, iPhone or iPad. Any ideas how to access them or find them elsewhere?
    Many thanks!!
     Edit: This is continuing today--I missed another call, they left a message, but it didn't show--still hasn't. Confirmed they left a message by calling back the client.
    Second Edit: The messages have just shown up, all at once. To be clear, this has happened before and is frustrating, but I'm happy it's now resolved. At least for today. Thanks for reading this anyway!!

    Favor the route via iTunes and local storage on the computer. MUCH faster than any cloudy backup, no matter the speed of your Internet connection. No network beats the speed of a hard drive. Just make sure there's enough room on the computer before you start, must contain all that's on the iGadget.

  • My movies are giving a URL not found on server error message, last week they worked fine. After deleting one of them, I don't get any retries for a free download. How do I contact the seller to complain?

    Stan -
    Thanks again for the simple but valuable tip.
    I'm just going to repeat the relevant sections from my previous post with the screenshots this time:
    Below you'll see a snip of how my current folder structure appears. It's identical to yours, except there are no button files in the General Folder. Since you were kind enough to include a file name, I did a search on that specific one and it's nowhere to be found on my hard drive. Hmmm....
    I've seen others remark on how... "challenging".... Adobe's instructions can be sometime. I'll admit to having the same feeling when I was trying to download and install all the content files and the 7-zip stuff. Is the answer somehow that I screwed up that?  Note the 7-zip folder right above the Adobe folder. Here's a screen shot of that expanded folder contents:
    Does that look like you think it should? Have I not installed or extracted something correctly?
    Finally, the only other thing I can think of to give you as much info as you might need is to include a screenshot of where the "Functional Content" stuff got saved. Adobe's instructions about this (if I recall correctly) were that it did NOT have to be installed anywhere specific, but you then had to go into Encore (& Premiere) and through preferences point to this stuff, which I believe I did. But I don't see any button type files in these anyway.
    Other thoughts or advice?
    Thanks!

  • All my old photos are missing from iPhoto on my Mac- any one have ideas on how to retrieve?

    All my old photos are missing from iPhoto on my Mac- any one have ideas on how to retrieve?

    Do you have a Time Machine backup or any backup of your Mac? Then you could try to restore from the backup.
    If your photos are very important documents, you could also try data recovery software. Usually the trial versions are free, but if you want to safe the recovery photos you have to pay.  Disk Drill works well to recover jPEG photos, see:  http://www.cleverfiles.com/
    It is still not obvious what might have happened to your iPhoto Library.  Have you searched for different iPhoto Libraries?
    You can search everywhere with FindAnyFile, where Spotlight will not search. 
    I learned this  from Old Toad , see his post here:
    Re: My iPhoto Library disappeared...how do I get it back?
    Download and run Find Any File to search for a file with "ThumbJPGSegment" in the file name. These are files common to all versions of  iPhoto libraries.
    FAF can search areas that Spotlight can't like invisible folders, system folders and packages. If there's a library hiding somewhere on your hard drive FAF will find it.

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what do you see when iPhoto opens?
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is you library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?

  • Strange arrow showing on sub-folders after moving from the main one

    I put all my desktop located files into ONE folder.
    Then I needed quicker access to some of the folders so I moved them back to my desktop.
    Now they all have a little arrow in the bottom left corner.
    Why is this?
    Is it important?
    When I put them into the one main folder they retain the little arrow which is different to the triangle that allows access to the folder contents in list view though seems to have the same function once in the main folder. They don't have that triangle any more.
    it is a curly arrow rather than a little triangle.
    If there was a way to upload screen shots I am sure you would understand properly what I am trying to say.
    At first this used to be on just one sub folder now it is on many of them.
    Thanks for any insight on this

    Anything with a curly arrow in the lower-left corner of its icon is an "alias" that points to the original. If you do Finder File -> Get Info you can see that the "Kind" of such an item is "Alias".
    You can create an alias in the Finder by holding down the command and option keys when you drag a file, by using the menu option File -> Make Alias, or by choosing "Make Alias" from the "contextual menu" that results when you click on an item while holding down the control key.

  • Photos missing from Recently Added, Collections after IOS8 update

    After I uptaded my IPad Air to IOS 8, photos were missing from Recently Added and Collections. (I understand Camera Roll and Photo Stream are gone.) My Recently Added photos dated to June (it's September) and my shared IPhone photos were missing from both the Collections/Moments where everything is supposed to be  now. Photos In Last Import are also from June. I was fumbling through the Comminties threads and found a partial solution on a related IPhone thread. I can't figure out how to link to it, but someone called Apple tech and they suggested going to Settings/Photos & Camera and toggling My Photo Stream off and then on again. I was reluctant to do this since a pop-up warns that all photos in your stream will be deleted. But as soon as I did it, aphotos started downloading to the Recently Added. They're out of chronological order, and there are duplicates, but at least they haven't all disappeared. (Also, not w complaint, but my Recently Added goes back to 2011, not 30 days.) Photos are still missing from Last Import and Collections. Any other ideas? At least now this feels recoverable, I'll put everything in Albums quick.

  • Move a folder, sub-folders, and documents under that folder from one document library to another within a Workflow

    Hello,
    I'm building a workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010 (Unfortunately we are not on 13 yet), and in that workflow I need to move a folder (with all it's sub-folders and items) from one document library to another document library.
    I tried a copy item but that kept failing, I checked content type, columns, and permission and it all looks good.
    the other option I started looking into is to Create the folder in the document list and them move all the items under that folder to the new folder. However I can't figure out how to loop through each items in that folder.
    Has this issue been addressed? or does someone has a solution.
    I looked and searched and all I found was tutorials on moving single items into a folder, but not entire folders.
    Thanks
    Hani

    Why to take pain in creating a workflow that copies folders, sub-folders and all of its contents from one document library to another.
    Simply open your source and destination document library in Windows Explorer mode and start copying your folder, sub-folders and contents that you want to copy out of the box.
    You will find "Open with Explorer" button under the Library tab on the ribbon of document library.

  • Why can't I see my accounts and all my folders after moving profile to new Windows ?

    Following clean install of Windows 7 over XP, I've copied across my old profile (as per instructions on this Forum, and others). Profile contains about 46 items, copy and pasted into newly created .default file. (Previous to which all new content was deleted) profile.ini appears to be pointing to correct file/location. When I launch Thunderbird, it is completely blank, no accounts etc., and no folders. The only thing showing correctly is my address book (thank goodness!) so presumably it is accessing the profile file OK ?
    Why are none of the accounts showing, or any of the (many) folders storing my old emails ?
    Can anyone point me in the right direction on this re: troubleshooting my profile file ?

    I've just about got there now, moving folders around (there appear to be three files per item) till they're more or less in the place where I want them in the Folder pane:
    (Tried to paste a screen print here, but no joy)
    Everything seemed to want to go into Local Folders, but I now have my four email accounts going into a single Inbox Folder, but in their own sub-folder.
    Strangely, the label for each is in a separate location. Still puzzled by the logic of the filepath within the profile file. Plenty of articles of where the Profile Folder should be, but nothing on the actual layout/construction of the Profile to get folders appearing where you want them ?
    Anyway, it's going to be next week before I can look anymore at this, so thank you for taking the time to respond.
    My research before all suggested that it was a simple matter of copying the profile to an external drive, reloading Windows and Thunderbird, and then copying profile back in. Its obviously far more complicated than that. I don't know what version I was on before, but the new one is 24.6.0

  • IPod Touch Won't Update to iOS5 without error message (-43) stating all contents will be deleted. How can I update without everything being deleted?

    Hi there,
    I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation (Model A1318). For the last several months I keep trying to update to iOs 5 and it gets stuck during the backup phase and an error message pops up:
    As half of my songs are not iTunes purchases, therefor not on the cloud, I do not want to start from scratch and have everything deleted. Also, Apple does not allow you to extract songs back off the pod easily to backup, so it would present a serious hassle reuploading hundreds of songs from CDS etc. Can anyone help explain this message? Has anyone hit continue with the update occurring smoothly without anything being erased? Any guidance much appreciated. I tried several times disabling my anti virus software during the process like others have said on the boards and in the Apple store but the same message and outcome. For reference, I'm using Windows Vista and the most recent iTunes 10.6.1.

    See my response to your other post.
    The automatic iTunes backup does not contain any synced items like apps, music (either iTunes purchases or not). There is no difference in what is backed up. See:
    iTunes: About iOS backups

  • How to pack icons in multi page folders after delete

    there is a way to automatically pack icons together after delete some of them in a multi page folder?

    Make as many artboards as you have layers.
    select the art on a layer easiest way is to use the layers panel.
    Command C to copy
    refocus on the artboard with the same number as the layer or if the layers have names, name the artboards accordingly and select to match that way.
    then command shift V to place in place the art will be pasted in the same position on the artboard as it was on artboard one or relative to the original.
    when you have all the artboards with their content in place save it as a pdf. using the use artboard feature select all or a range
    and now you have a multipage pdf.
    yes I know this not what you want but in the future just remember this is how it works and be prepared to have an artboard for each layer.
    And it is not that much work to do this.
