My email box shows I have 4100 unread messages I don't know why it has done this. How do I get it off there?

My email shows that I have over 4,000 unread messages don't know why or where it came from. I don't have any unread. How do I get that off there?

I suspect in this case the problem is caused by your library and device having downloaded independent copies of the media, so that when the library connects to the device it copies over your purchases not realizing they are already in the library.
When deduping use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background and please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping.

  • HT2905 Many (most) of my songs in my library have multiplied. I now have doubles and triples of my music. I don't know why it has done this or how to fix this problem. This is a new problem since I synced a new ipod touch this week.

    Many(most) of my songs in my library have multiplied. I now have doubles and triples of my music. This is a new problem that started this week when I synced my new ipod touch. Why did this happen and how do I get rid of it. I have around 1400 duplicates in my library now.

  • I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs?

    I have all my music on an external media drive that has crashed. How can I get the music of my ipod touch back onto the comupter without loosing the music when it syncs. in order to start rebuilding my music collection?

    You should be able to recover the media with the tips in  this post from forum regular Zevoneer but I'm not sure what the implications are for your application settings. You can probably transfer your purchases into a newly authorised library, backup the device, recover any other media using third party tools, then restore the device from the backup. That should switch the assocation of the device to the new library but it is not something I've personally tested.
    When you get it all working, make a backup!

  • HT201269 I downloaded from Icloud my backup to new 5S.  Everything worked fine except from one of my accounts it show I have 394 unread messages.  Which is correct but I have read all these on my 4S.  How do I show zero and only read new messages?

    I downloaded from Icloud my backup to new 5S.  Everything worked fine.
    However it shows I still have 394 unread messages.  Which correct on this new 5S Iphone but they were all read on my old 4s.
    How to I zero out the 394 and only start reading new messages on this new 5S. 
    Please do not tell i have to delete all 394 messages.

    The process depends on who controls your email.  If you have (username)@mac.com, (username)@me.com or (username)@icloud.com you've come to the correct place.  For any other mail server, you need to contact their specific user support tools.

  • When I opened my Safari Browser in the past a dialogue box appear so I could type a website to go to .  It has disappeared.  How do I get it back?

    How do I get the dialogue to re-appear when I open Safari?

    1Kaminsky --
    Have you recently upated the OS on your iMac?
    If so, what OS did you start from, and which one are you one now?
    Which version of Safari are you on now?
    Or has your URL bar at the top disappeared altogether?

  • When i run labview6.1 on my pc with windows the "DAQ Solution " was gary doesn't work i don't know why ?i don't have a daq board card is that a reason? i want to know what should i have to use labview in data acquisitio​n?

    i am using a platform windows 98 ,and labview 6.1
    thanks in advance

    With the NI-DAQ driver, you can build VIs, but you can not acquire data until you have a Data Acquisition card. You can get these from National Instruments over the web or by calling.

  • I have a trial version of an app that won't remove from launchpad, how do i get it off?

    I do not have any files from the app because it is a trial version and deletes when the trial is over, but i want the app off of launchpad

    Companies that won't tell you how to uninstall their app should be horsewhipped. Anyway, launch Activity Monitor (it's in your Applications/Utilities folder), look for the Shortcuts process - you may have to select "All Processes" in the toolbar pulldown menu - highlight it and click the "Quit Process" button. You should then be able to delete the Shortcuts app and that should stop the nag. If not, post back and I'll dig further.
    Regards.

  • I moved my iphone from my parents account to another account on a different computer and i still have some of the music that i dont want from the other account, how can i get it off of my phone without deleting it from the other itunes account?

    Please Help

    What type of "account" are you referring to?  An iCloud account doesn't contain music, an iTunes account does.

    Open any folder on your hard drive and go to the Go menu and select the Desktop option:
    Type Command + F to open the serarch window for the Desktop and set Kind = Image
    Select all of the files displayed, Command (right) - click on them and select the Move to Trash option in the contextual menu:
    Go back to the Desktop.  If you want to save those photos create a new folder on the Desktop, open the Trash in the Dock and move them to the new folder on the Desktop.
    If you don't want to save those files just empty the Trash in the Dock.

  • I have a new iPhone 6 plus and all is OK. But the mail shows more than 400 'unread' messages whereas there are none in the mailbox or trash or anywhere else I have looked. I can send and receive with no problem. I'm sure I have no unread messages.

        jsavage9621,
    It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect.  This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone.  It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here.  I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you.  I look forward to speaking with you.

    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

  • Mail says I have 11 unread messages in the Dock - but I don't

    Just did a clean install of Leopard and copied my Mail legacy folders over from backup. But now the Dock says I have 11 unread messages (that's what the little red starburst means, right?). But when I go into Mail I can't find any unread messages any where. I have the preference turns on that displays the number of unread messages in a given box, but none of my boxes are showing a number. I've also opened all of the boxes for a visual review and simply can't find any unread messages anywhere.
    I know it's a small thing, but it's driving me nuts...
    Thanks,
    M.

    Thanks, Ernie—
    Two accounts. No third-party apps. I see a little red starburst (spiky ball with a white number within) in the Dock. Says 11. But I can't find any unread messages. But I should have mentioned that my "Drafts" folder shows a five. Is this a new thing with Leopard? I don't think Mail used to count Drafts in Tiger. Could those be contributing to the 11? Still can't find the other six...
    I'll try rebuilding the mailboxes and see if that helps.
    Best,
    M.
