My work emails disappeared today on Iphone, but my yahoo emails remain. Why?

I have an Iphone 3GS and I have my yahoo account and my work account on the phone.  I save the necessary emails that I might need when away from my computer.  This morning I turned on my phone to check emails and my work emails disappeared completely (getting new emails on phone however).  All of my Yahoo emails still remain.  Why is this happening and how do I get them back?
Thank you

POP accounts do not synchronize across multiple clients; the POP3 protocol was invented at a time when personal computers were new, and no one anticipated that anyone would ever have more than one device to read email. So when multiple devices became available the IMAP protocol was developed; IMAP makes the server the master copy, and replicates mail to all clients and keeps them synchronized. So deleting or moving a message on one client updates the server, and then the other clients the next time they sync. Yahoo uses IMAP, which is why it works as you described. Exchange is similar to IMAP, but uses a different lower level protocol that allows "push" to the clients so they don't have to request updates.
As your work accounts are POP3 mail should never be deleted unless you delete it, or you have automatic deleting set up in the settings. So it sounds like something went wrong on your phone; possibly a "toxic" malformed email was received that corrupted the Inbox, and mail.app recovered be emptying the Inbox. It's unlikely that those emails can be recovered. You can try restoring the backup if you had synced recently, but that will overwrite everything that has been received since.
If at all possible you should switch to an IMAP or Exchange account for your work email to protect against this in the future (and also take advantage of other IMAP benefits, such as folders).

  • I downloaded Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone. Worked well until I had to recharge my phone. Now disappearred from my iPhone but shows in Tones when phone sync'd. How do I get to show back as default Ringtone

    I downloaded a Ringtone from iTunes into my iPhone 6 and set it as the default Ringtone.Worked well until I had to recharge my phone.The Ringtone has now disappeared from my iPhone and I'm left with just the Ringtones that come standard with iPhone 6. I sync'd my phone and it shows in the Tones folder. How do I get the Ringtone back as a default Ringtone in my iPhone 6. Quite frustrating!!

    In iTunes, try signing out of your Apple ID & then back in: click on iTunes Store on the left sidebar of iTunes, click on your Apple ID on the top right, sign out, sign back in.  Then try to sync your purchased music to your phone again.

  • Changed my apple ID, works ok on pc and iphone but can't get old or ID to work Ipad2

    changed my apple ID because email add no longer valid, new ID works on pc and iphone, but the new or old ID will work on my Ipad 2

    I too had the same problem. Try:
    1. Resetting the ipad by holding the sleep button and the home button simultaneously till the apple logo appears. And then try setting up facetime.
    2. Setting the facetime through the facetime option in Settings.
    Hope this helps. And its better not to sell the ipad 2. Its a brilliant device. Rather wait for the fifth generation ipad which might be launched in 2013.

  • I have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work, i have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work

    I have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work

    Try closing the Camera app completely and see if then works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

  • IMessage works on MacBook Pro and iPhone but not iMac

    I am able to send messages via SMS and iMessage on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5S but not on my iMac.  On the iMac I get "Not Delivered" and "Try Again". I verified that the same iCloud account is being used on all.  I can tell that the iMac and the phone are pairing as I get a message to that effect when I log into the iMac.  All software is up to date 10.10.1 on the Macs and 8.1.2 on the iPhone.
    I have tried logging out of my iCloud account on the iMac and logging back in.  I have tried removing com.appple.imagent.plist from my Library/Preferences and rebooting.  Neither worked though removing the plist file appeared to work but in reality the messages were not being delivered.  Later the behavior went back to giving the error messages.
    I have reported this to Apple but was hoping someone had found a solution.
    This is from the log file when I try to send a message (my iCloud account replaced with xxxxxx, phone number I was texting to replaced with pppppp).

    Based on information in another answer I tried the following ...
    After doing what blueno suggested I did have to reboot.  I then had to provide my password lots of times when I logged in.  That still didn't work so I logged out of my iCloud account in Message and logged back in, repaired, and it worked!
    This is what I did:
    1) Open Key Chain Access ( go to Applications>Utilities)
    2) Select Login at the top left side under Keychains
    3) Select All Items on the lower left side under Category
    4) Search for entries of IDS.
    5) Highlight and delete all entries that has IDS.
    6) Search for entries of FaceTime
    7) Highlight and delete all entries of FaceTime
    8) Search for entries of Messages (I also found entries containing Message (singular, not plural), but didn't delete these.)
    9) Highlight and delete all entries of Messages
    10) Reboot!
    11) Log back in and when requested log back into iCloud account (I got asked for the password multiple times)
    12) Log out of iCloud account in iMessage (Not sure if this is needed)
    13) Log back into iCloud account in iMessage.
    14) On iPhone in Settings/Messages/Text Message Forwarding turn off forwarding to my iMac.
    15) Turn Text Message Forwarding back on for my iMac (re-pairs and I entered the new number)
    16) Could send text messages from my iMac!!!!!
    But it was short lived.  One message was sent using SMS (that should have gone through using iMessage and then back to the same error message.  So I am back to square one.

  • Syncing of calendar works only from icloud to iphone but not the other way round

    My iphone is suddenly not syncing with icloud anymore. I sync only the Calendar (ical). From the icloud calendar to the iPhone calendar syncing is working but not the other way round. I was at a genius bar but they could not solve the problem. Apple phone support suggested nothing I haven't tried like reboot etc. Any ideas how to solve the problem?

    Go to Settings>Mails, Contacts, Calendars, scroll down to Calendars section and check the Default Calendar. Must be the iCloud calendar. If you don't see this option it means that you have only the iCloud calendar in your iPhone. In that case try to turn off the Calendar from iCloud settings and turn it back on after few seconds.

  • My macbookpro died and I have been using my boyfriends macbook (the itunes is an earlier incarnation of my itunes) and have been using his pro to charge, all the music has disappeared from my iphone but shows up when i plug it in to charge on his macbook,

    My macpro got wet and I have been using my boyfriends macpro to charge my iphone over the weekend, his itunes is an early version of my itunes library. I have no music showing in my ipod on my iphone. When I plug it in to the macpro it shows my music, and an up to date show of all my playlists new music etc when I click on my iphone icon, how do I get it back? Can I back up and sync from his library? Can I just back up my phone on his library and restore from that, will I get an exact copy, new stuff and all back??
    Any help appreciated

    Sounds like the music you had on your phone was not the same music on his computer. The iPhone/iPod touch is not designed to be a storage device. When you sync with a computer that doesn't have your music, it deletes your music from your phone.
    Was this music you purchased from iTunes? if so, and you are in the US, tap on itunes app, tap updates, tap purchased and tap on the cloud icon to get each song back. If you're not int he us, get iOS5 update later this week and do the same.
    But you need to move your itunes library to his computer. Create a user account on his macbook pro for you. From your external drive backup, load your itunes library on it. Then sync as usual! (Don't tell me you don't have a backup for your computer!)

  • Position encoder works with PCI-MIO-16E-4 but not with PCI-6062E, why?

    I am using A BNC-2090 to connect Agilent HEDS-6540 position encoder to my PCI-6052E. The application works fine with my 12 bit NI card PCI-MIO-16E-4, But with the new card I get extra counts in my position. ex 1052 pulses when it is only supposed to be 1000 counts in a complete revolution. This setup still works great with the old card, meaning I can just plug into the other card and run the same app on the same computer, just a different device number. I have not been able to figure this out.

    You might be seeing the affects of dithing with your signal. I'm not sure why it would be on one board, though not the other, one counter must be more sensitive. Anyway, dithering is caused by vibration or other outside forces that cause small glitches that add to the count total for the counter. There is a way around this, and that is to use a counte convertor. There is a page on this website that tells how to make one. The link is below. I would sugget trying this to see if it will fix the problem.

  • I downloaded some albums using my iphone, i then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has gone from the songs i downloaded on my iphone, but not on the itunes on the pc. How can i get the artwork back on my iphone?

    I downloaded some albums using my iphone (3GS), I then synced it with my PC. Now all the album artwork has disappeared off my iphone but not off itunes on the PC. How can I get the album artwork back onto my iphone?

    I had the similar problem last night and found a solution (although it takes more than a few clicks).  Highlight all the album tracks in itunes on the pc and right click "get info". Check the artwork box in this window.  I found that the now playing art was showing up in the itunes window, but on songs that were missing artwork showed nothing in the get info box.  When I replaced the artwork by using the artwork command, or manually adding it into the "get info" window.  It was annoying but my iphone updated every album.
