My hotmail suddenly saying 'Error cannot move mail to Trash' Help pls!

It's always worked fine and I've changed no settings but it's suddenly stopped working and saying unable to delete message. Why? I've read lots of different threads about a fix involving going into settings-Mail-advanced and checking the delete message/trash option, mine already is checked, not the archive option but it still isn't working. I've tried I checking and re checking the box, soft reset the phone and deleting my account time and time again. But nothing is helping.
Please someone help because it's driving me mad!
Many thanks

It's worked for me (I've been having this problem too)...
Go to Settings
... Mail
.... "Click" to choose your IMAP account
... Scroll down and click "Advanced"
... Under "Mailbox Behaviors" click "Deleted Mailbox"
... Scroll down to the bottom, under "On the Server", and click "Trash"
... Get back to the main Account info box by clicking the " <Advanced " text/choice at the top left -- twice
... And click "Done".
Worked for me after annoyingly not being able to figure it out for over a year :-/
Hope this helps!
Happy New Year!! (Especially happy if it does help :)

I'm trying to update my iphone but it stuck up ..... I tried to recover it but to no avail... it says error 1015..... help pls..

I'm trying to update my iphone but it stuck up ..... I tried to recover it but to no avail... it says error 1015, wht should I do???

Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state. Very rarely this error is caused by a hardware issue and requires service.
Resolution
Try these steps first
To perform some of these steps, you need to be logged in to the computer as an administrator. If you are not sure if you have administrator access, contact the owner of the computer or the system administrator.
Note: If necessary, review the steps for restoring your iOS device.
You can resolve most restore errors by following these basic steps:

1. Update to the latest version of iTunes
2. Verify that your operating system is up to date
3. Disconnect other USB devices
4. Check security settings
5. Restart your computer

Why will iPad not move mail to trash

Just setting up windows mail on ipad2 but when deleting emails get message saying cannot move mail to trash.
Any ideas?

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select the account where you've got the problem, then select Account, Advanced, Deleted Mailbox, and under On The Server tap the 'Trash' folder (or whatever it is called by your provider) so that it gets a tick against it - then come out of that series of screens and try deleting them again

Intermittent "Cannot move Mail to mailbox" Errors.

Has anyone else experienced intermittent "Cannot move Mail to mailbox" error messages?
I've done everything I can think of to track this problem down: packet sniffing, reviewing the IIS logs, looking at the event viewer to see if anything is dieing around the time of the request, switching from AT&T Edge (3G isn't reliable here) to WI-FI and back again, etc.
I have noticed while packet sniffing that when the error occurs there is a [RST, ACK] returned instead of [FIN, ACK].
This is an intermittent problem that has been plaguing us for a few weeks now.
Our setup includes: windows server 2008, IIS 7, and exchange 2007 with all patches and roll-ups applied.
Thanks in advance, and any advice is appreciated.

What argues FOR a server problem is that millions of users don't have the problem. I see it occasionally when the cell signal is very weak.
I had a problem a couple of months ago where the push stopped working. My SA looked at it and fixed it. This is not the same problem you have, but it could be related. Here is his explanation:
+We ran windows updates on Promail a weekend or so before this problem on the 28th. One of the updates was a DNS fix that expanded the dynamic port range dns is using. Problem was, in it’s infinite wisdom, MS allowed this range change to include 2883, the AUTD or active sync port. So we had to do a registry change to exclude the port for Active sync only. Here’s the KB article:+
+http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956189+
+Jason said that he recalled making this change before. But the updates on the weekend, must have reverted the registry change he did because the exception wasn’t there anymore.+

Mail server log says: master[50]: ERROR: Cannot start mail services...

Recently, after a year or more of relatively smooth service, my OS X Server 10.4.11 Mail services has been locking up daily.
I was finally able to get some information from the log files (I am a noob to this) and saw the following right after my most recent reboot of the server:
Oct 5 09:51:11 mm1 master[50]: ERROR: Cannot start mail services, configuration directory does not exist: /Volumes/Data/mail/var/imap
I checked the server and that directory is indeed there on the partition named "DATA", so I am baffled as why the server does not thing the configuration directory exists?
drwxr-xr-x 15 cyrusima mail 510 Oct 5 09:51 imap
drwxr-xr-x 15 root admin 510 Oct 3 20:01 imap.BAK

drwxr-xr-x 4 jkoerber admin 136 Dec 3 2007 spool
mm1:/Volumes/Data/mail/var jkoerber$
Can anyone help me? My customers are yelling for blood because they cannot send/receive emails.

Thanks Alex for the feedback. You are helpful as always!
It's good to know that the message I am getting from the mail server about the configuration files is only a temporary thing. Although I find it strange that the mail service doesn't know where its config files are since it is specified in the mail server setup.
I looked at the log files you mentioned and do not see anything that looks like a specific problem with the mail services themselves.
Recently, however, I have been having recurring problems where my mail server and my Web/Database server have both become unresponsive at nearly the same time even though they are on different class A networks to where I cannot access them via ARD, Server Admin and even SSH. That is usually when my mail server goes offline. I was afraid it was because of that configuration error I was seeing, but think now that the problem could be something else entirely (maybe some kind of network problem or denial of service hacking attack, no idea).
Thanks again.

My photos are not working, any recently taken photos won't show, they're just like blank grey pictures & all my photos cannot be uploaded or loaded into an editing tap, it says error, cannot find photo, and the last photo I take ends up being repeated!

someone please help me! I just traveled to hong long and the minute I arrived something wrong was happening with my photos, I can't take any new photos because if I did they either get repeated or just be shown as grey pictures and when I try to upload one to a photo editing app it says "error cannot Load photo" and the same happens in twitter and Facebook! this has been found on for Like more than a week now, even when I want to set a picture as my profile picture in man it ends up zooming the picture way more than how I chose it in the border,, I would like to be able to take good photos again, any help?

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

When I try to move an email to trash, I get a pop up window saying it cannot move the email to trash, however; it does delete the email. How can I stop the message pop-up?

When I try to move an email to trash on my new Iphone 5, a get a pop up window saying it cannot move the mail to trash. Any ideas how to get rid of the pop up window??

I usually get that message when I have low/weak cellular/wifi signal.

Cannot move mail to the mail trash

I cannot move mail to the mail trash without a message that says: 65530.emix couldn't be copied to 'messages'because an item with the same name already exists. The mail is transferred to the trash but still remains in the inbox.

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

ERROR: Cannot start mail services, configuration directory does not exist

I'm running an Xserve G5 with one internal boot drive and one RAID using the other two internal drives. I used Apple's Disk Utility to set-up the RAID.
Back in early December, I moved my mail database and mail store to the RAID. Ever since, when I restart the server, the mailaccess.log generates the following error:
Jan 23 18:51:33 mail master[47]: ERROR: Cannot start mail services, configuration directory does not exist: /Volumes/RAID/mail.data/db
I'm speculating this is a timing error that gets created when Postfix initially can't find the RAID. Then, it must try again and find it because the error message does not repeat and mail starts running.
Is this something to worry about?

Hi Joel,
You're right, it's a timing issues. The mail system is ready for work before the file system is mounted. It's benign.

HT2480 Ipad mini - exchange email stopped working randomly Error: "Cannot get mail. The connection to the server failed."

I got an iPad mini over Christmas and have had no issues setting up/managing my email until yesterday. I've had my Exchange email working for almost a month, and yesterday I stopped getting emails and getting the error: "Cannot Get Mail. The connection to the server failed."
I tried resetting the device (multiple times) and deleting and recreating the Exchange account (multiple times). This is getting annoying because it worked fine up until yesterday. I'm not aware of any updates to the device, or any changes that have occurred since yesterday.

Due to a screen issue, I had my iPhone 5 replaced two days ago. I repeated deleted the mail account and kept adding it but this did not make any difference. When I attempted to setup the new phone with my Google (Gmail via exchange active sync) accounts I was receiving this same "Cannot Get Mail" error. From what I was able to gather, this problem should be affecting Gmail accounts set up via Exchange. When originally purchasing the phone I was assisted and directed to set up my Gmail account through Exchange because it had the ability to use "ActiveSync" and push not only mail and calendars, but all of my contacts as well. I found this article regarding the subject.
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2413283,00.asp
What it came down to was having to delete my Gmail via Exchange account and separate it into two different accounts, a regular gmail account for my mail and a CardDAV account for my contacts.
Here is what I did. Google is changing their system and for new registrars Exchange ActiveSync will not work so you will be unable to register your account via Exchange and have your mail, calenders, and contacts all pushed together. I find this change really annoying. If you are having problems accessing your contacts after deleting the mail account, like I was, here is the work around.
To circumvent this issue go to Setting > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDAV Account: Under server ender google.com, then your email user name and password, then click next to verify the information.
I hope this helps.
