N800 - OS2008 Mail Memory Bug?

I just ran across this. My N800 ran out of Memory . . . I had to reflash it to clean up what ever was causing the problem.
I suspect the problem lies with Email (I've seen some discussion on Internet Tablet Talk). I haven't added programs since the restore of the last faulty OTA update. I've few data files & they are small. Indeed, after this restore I've 79.5 MB available - and monitoring.
What I noticed in Email that made me suspicious . . . I created some folders to keep Emails I was interested in. I would move the Email of interest from the right pane to the appropiate folder in the left pane. However, the Email still showed in the right pane - and, there was a copy in the folder as well. I deleted the Email in the right pane (the in box) using the trash icon. Everything seemed okay. My guess (& it is purely that) is that the Email title/subject was deleted, but, the contents still remained behind . . consuming space . . . & more space, & more space as more as Emails were received & supposedly deleted.
When my N800 started misbehaving & giving Low memory messages I deleted all my Emails, but, the problem persisted so that in the end I had to reflash.
I'm posting this to see if others have seen this . . . & as I noted earlier, am monitoring memory.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here is what I've learned from Internet Table Talk/Maemo.org - Talk
Yes, there are files left behind even when you delete messages in mail. These files are in
home/user/.modest/cache/mail/your mail account name/cache
After deleting all your mail there are two ways to delete these hidden? files.
* Use ls -al and cd to navigate to directory. Pwd will give present working directory; exit to quit and rm to delete. (Not recommended)
* Use gpe file manager. (Recommended). It defaults to /home/user/ . . . then you must type in .modest (note the dot) & from there you can use the selection process to navigate to the cache directory. Highlight the folders therein & using pull down menu (top left) select delete.
Note: you, obviously, need a bit of working knowledge to do this, but, it can be done.
Hope this helps.

How do I remove old e-mail addresses from the Mail Memory?

I have friends who have changed the e-mail addresses, and quite some time ago also. But everytime I write their name in the address field, it still brings up the old address as an option. And if I'm not paying attention it sends to the old address.
If there a way to clear the Mail memory so that it won't use old addresses?
Thanks.

Window menu, Previous Recipients.

How do I check MAIL memory useage ON IPAD

Do you mean in terms of storage ? If so then you can't see it separately for the Mail app, it's included in the 'Other' category which shows at the bottom of the Summary tab when connected to your computer's iTunes - along with notes, calendar info, contacts and the contents of third-party apps.

How do I clear the email addresses from Mail memory auto-fill?

I am constantly getting emails back from people I didn't mean to email, thanks to the auto-fill option in my email. I don't mind mail remembering the people in my address book, but not EVERYONE I've ever sent or received an email from. Does anyone know how to clear the cache in my mail memory?

Does the "Warning! Not Enough Memory" bug still exist in Logic 8?

Hello everyone,
I'm wondering if the dreaded "warning, not enough memory" bug still exists in Logic 8. Here is a detailed account of the bug from Logic 7: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=767597&#767597
If this is fixed, I'm seriously considering upgrading mid-project! The film score I'm working on has many doubling parts that I'd like to edit at the same time in the matrix editor. However, editing multiple parts in the matrix editor seems provoke the little bugger, and I've already been bitten a few times in this project already. The only solution I've found is to stay clear of editing multiple parts at once (i.e. edit each parts individually, which obviously takes more time) or save before editing and hope I dont get bit.
I would LOVE to hear a report that this bug has been exterminated, and perhaps may upgrade mid project if thats the case.
Thanks in advance for your reply!

Heya,
I'm not familiar with the bug you're talking about. But would, as a fellow film composer, strongly urge you against the mid project switch.
I loaded in LP8 and ofcourse had a look at what it was all about, and it's really really fantastic. It also seems very stable. I fortunately have a side project that I am working on so switched to LP8 for that. Whilst I'm thankful to get my head around a very new approach for logic, I'm also thankful that I have this side project as it has illuminated a multitude of problems that exist with LP8 that would make any scoring process a bit of a headache to say the least. The main one being that if you don't have a very very powerful mac (I'm prepping a really fully loaded 8 core) you are not going to get anywhere near the performance out of Logic as you do with 7. This is a bottom up overhaul and it needs hardware to match. Heck even my 30" cinema display seems cramped and insubstantial on this new version. I would be so bold to say hold off until you have a hearty new mac and at least 8.2 is released IMHO but maybe try and get on it onto a smaller project to familiarize yourself before hand.

N800 w/os2008 Mail error

I just updated my n800 to OS2008. The update went smoothly using the update utility and was able setup my email and wlan connections no problem. I bought this tablet primarily as an email and internet device and it's worked well. The problem started when the email app crashed. Now it just won't come up at all. Every time I tried to launch mail it simply says "error occur" and it shuts down the mail app. Everything else still works. I reinstalled the OS2008 and mail started to run again. However, about 20minutes later, the mail app crashed again and it's repeating the "error occur" message and now mail won't launch again.
My email setup is IMAP4 with SSL security for both sending and receiving. Any comments on why this is happening and other mail program recommendations would be much appreciated. No other downloads have been installed, this is happening on a fresh install of the OS2008.

I have been using modest even though it's still beta. It's been working very well for me with IMAP. It can be found from Modest web page. There have been updates for it almost every week so it's good to start "application manager" every now and then and check updates for it.

N800 os2008 combined: settings lost over reboot, U...

Loaded the combined os2008 onto my n800. Wifi worked (unlike the n800-specific version), lots of other things worked. But there are differences.
- word choice and word prediction during typing used to be defaulted on; now off. Turn them on, they work fine and still use my saved information from before. Turn n800 off last night, turn it on today, and the settings have all been lost - I had to turn them on again.
- concern - what other settings are getting lost over reboot?
- auto capitalization used to UPSHIFT the keyboard to indicate that it was shifting the first letter of a word. not now. caused me problems with a password until i realized i had turned it on along word prediction.

I've got the same thing happening on a newly flashed N800. The settings seem to disappear at random. I haven't been able to discern a pattern yet, but, like you, seem to lose them always over a power cycle.
I've had my N800 three days and seeing your post makes me think I don't have a defective unit. When and how does suspicious new behavior turn into a bug?

Oracle 8.1.5 Memory bug!?!

Hi !
I have a serious problem concerning the use of Oracle as db for upcoming projects.
Current situation:
- Platform: Windows NT 4.0 server
- DB: Oracle 8.1.5
- JDBC: 1.1 which comes with the Oracle 8.1.5
Problem:
- I have developed an ServletBased web-app. which has the capability to upload images (blob) and text into the db and then to stream out the images and write the text from there into a Servlet generated webpage.
After running the app. for about 10 minutes the virtual memory usage suddenly starts rising about 2-10 megs./second.
I have optimized my code and closed every resultset, statement, connection, input&outputstream, etc.
I would say that the application is fairly optimized by now but this crash still happens.
Could someone please confirm that this is actually a known problem with the Oracle db?
I have seen many messages concerning the same problem but so far have seen no good explanations.
If there is no hope for a solution I have to change the db for something else, which is no way a desirable action.

Snow Leopard + Mail + Spelling: BUG

I think there is a bug in Mail (in Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard).
Open up Edit menu -> Spelling and Grammar -> Show Spelling and Grammar
By default spelling is set to "Automatic by Language". Now change this to something else (U.S. English, or French for example) and quit Mail.
Now open up Mail again and open the Spelling and Grammar settings window... the language setting is back to the Automatic setting.

Yup and it seems to prevent proper spell checking. I should say, it marks a misspelled word, but if you right click to suggest a proper spelling, it has no suggestions. Can't believe this hasn't been found by more people by now. You can change the default language as you stated and then it finds suggestions, but then looses it after restarting the application.
This isn't a Mail only issues btw, happens everywhere I've tried.
REALLY annoying at this point.

Awful memory bug

A few days ago my computer started to not reuse inactive ram, which has led to incredibly low performance.
After a minute or two, the ram is usually full (and I have 4GB), and it starts to swap like mad. Sometimes it takes ten seconds or so to bring a Safari window to the front, or more than 30 sec to bring Photoshop to the front (it's running in the background!).
Strangest thing is, I have absolutely no clue why this started. I didn't install an update, and I didn't start using any new software.
Has anyone a clue how to fix this? It is immensely annoying.
Thanks, Julian

Hi, and thanks for the tips so far.
I have of course cheched the Activity Monitor (it shows all processes), and there is none using over 100MB. I didn't take the time to sum them all up, but it's obvious it's less than a GB.
Virtual memory is normal as well.
The active & inactive memory just grows huge after some time. Way too huge.
I've had a chat with the developers of Transmission, while using that app the problem is especially big, because it has so much memory throughput. (It does happen with any app though.)
They told me, that it's a bug that more Os X 10.5.5 users are experiencing... but I haven't found any reports so far.
@nerowolfe: That could also be... but it would be a very strange kind of faulty memory. Because even though it decreases my computer's speed from Bugatty Veyron to Citroen 2CV, it hasen't yet managed to crash it. (I have lots of HD space to fill :-)).
I'll just try it.
Thanks again, Julian

Mail forwarding bug?

In one of my Apple Mail POP accounts, when I forward a message, the message goes through to the destination just fine. But the little arrow that should appear to the left of the message, indicting that it has been forwarded, does not appear. (And, yes, the forwarded message is in my sent box.) This started happening right after I upgraded to Snow Leopard.
And, investigating further, when I click on one of the arrows of earlier forwarded messages, rather than open the forwarded message in a new window, I get the message:
"Mail was unable to find your reply to the message “Subscription Order: 5 Years”. You may have deleted the message."
This is weird, since it was a forwarded message (not a reply), and , of course, these message are in my sent box.
I don't know if theses bugs are related, and the second bug could have been happening earlier nd I didn't know it. But the new bug, the arrow not appearing, started with my Snow Leopard upgrade.
And my other mail accounts (all my accounts are POP) work fine.
Unfortunately the buggy account is the one that I need to use to forward messages to my business partner, and it really helps to see which ones have already been forwarded -- but I can no longer quickly see that.
Can anyone suggest anything to fix this? I've already run the Disk Utility permissions repair ...
Thanks!
John

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I have a lot of mailboxes, most of which are working fine, in several domains, so before I do this ...
1) If I make a backup copy of the old prefs file before I delete it, and I run into a problem, will I simply be able to copy the old prefs file back to where it was and have my setup the way it was?
yes. the mail preference file only contains mail preferences. the actual mailboxes live in home directory/library/mail. they will not be touched by this process.
2) When I create new preferences, will I still see the little arrows/links next to old messages (in the mailboxes that are working correctly now) indicating that the message was replied to or forwarded? It would be a drag to lose those.
yes.
3) As an alternative to creating new prefs for all my mailboxes, what do you think about this idea... Might it work if I create a new mailbox (with new prefs, I assume) for each of my flawed accounts and simply drag the old messages into the new milbox? And then delete the old one? Would this screw something up?
you can't do that. there is just one mail preference file for everything.
Thanks!

Mail app bug with jumping to new line below signature

Hi!
Since day one of using Lion i have this incredibly annoying bug with Mail application.
I have a formated signature in all my emails. Sometimes when I am composing a mail (or rather replying for one) and when I hit RETURN on keyboard, cursor moves BELOW signature and inserts new line below signature - not in place when it was when I hit RETURN.
The same is when I have cursor in middle of my message and hit enter. Nothing happens - text ater place when cursor was when I hit enter is staying where it was but cursor moves below signature and enters new line in there.
Anyone has solution for this?

Triple-click the word "telnet" in the line below on this page to select the whole line:
telnet imap.gmail.com 993
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You should almost instantly get three lines of output below what you entered, the last of which is this:
Escape character is '^]'.
If there's no output within ten seconds, consider that a failure. If you get something different from the above, please post it in a reply. You can then quit Terminal.

Mail Memory Storage

How can I find out how much memory my mail accounts are using so I can adjust my mobileme idisk/mail storage amounts?

Dreamweaver CS4 attempted to free unallocated memory bug

Dreamweaver CS4 Mac version 10.0.0.4117 has a fatal bug. It is trying to free up unallocated memory. Most likely, it is trying to free the pointer twice, which ended up attempting to free memory that does not belong to it. This corrupts the system memory, and bring down Snow Leopard, causing the notorious freeze problem in Snow Leopard.
See the system log, right after Dreamweaver crashed, it corrupted the system memory, causing Safari to freeze right after that:

Logic Snowballing Memory bug

I am encountering the strangest bug. It seems to occur when I click on a track - that's it. It is happening so often that I just cannot work!
I click somewhere usually and then Logic freezes, I look at the Real Mem in Activity Monitor and it is growing and growing until Logic crashes at around 20 GB. I have initialized preferences, repaired disk permissions, I'm now running from a clone, but it just occurred in that!
I cannot think what could be causing this. I would appreciate any help.
Thx
Felix

I think it might have something to do with the Kontakt Memory settings?
Absolutely... if you have Kontakt's Memory Manager turned on...?
It needs to be turned off when using it with a 64 Bit Application like Logic Pro X... as OS X and Logic handle all memory..... and that setting is only needed when running Kontakt with either a 32bit DAW or.. when using Kontakt as a Standalone app....
So, if it's on, turn it off in Kontakt's settings...and restart your Mac and then test.....
