Next Message

Here are two simple questions:
In other email programs there is a button to move to the next message from an open message rather than having to return to your list of incoming mail. Does Mail have such a button?
In other words I want to be able to go directly from an open message to the next or previous message in my inbox without having to take the extra steps of closing the message and returning to the inbox directory to click open the next (or previous) message.
I've tried to find such a function in Mail but haven't seen the option.
Also, I would like to be able to delay messages from being sent for a set period, say 10 minutes, after I have pressed the sent button but before they have gone out over the Web. Mail doesn't seem to allow this either, unless you go offline. But then you won't receive incoming mail.
Thanks.

If you select a message in the list and can't see the body of the message below the list drag up the little dot in the centre of the bottom bar of mail's window to expose the message pane.
You can use Andreas Amaan's Mail Scripts to schedule outgoing mail.

I applied and received an upgrade code to Redeem Mountain Lion for my new MBP.
I get this message when I try to Sign in to the App Store after entering the redemption content code, and also if I just try to "Sign In".   The first part of the error is true - I haven't used the AppleID with the iTunes store.

Correct.

As for cookies. Quit the App Store. Now open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder.
Type this exactly as you see it here:   ~/Library/Cookies
Click Go the move the   com.apple.appstore.plist   file from the Cookies folder to the Trash.

Is there any way to make Mail open next message?

Is there any way to make Mail open the next message on the inbox automatically after deleting, forwarding o saving a message?
I mean, is there any way to, after reading a message, going to the next or previous message without double clicking the main inbox window?
I used (on windows) to read mail on outlook, or even on entourage for mac, and after I read a message, even if I deleted it, forward it, replied it, or even saving it on a folder, automatically the program (outlook, entourage, hotmail, etc) opened the next message on the inbox, but I am not able to find any way to make Mail do that.
Is there a way to it? Or should I provide suggestions to Apple?
By the way, no meant to prefer microsoft for this, I just think this is a cool feature for reading several messages one after another without going back to the main inbox page and double clicking the message to read...
Thanks for any help

Down-arrow, Return. Return opens the selected message. I read through hundreds of messages without ever touching the mouse. Once you get used to the keystrokes, Mail is extremely efficient.

How can I stop mail on iPad from going to next message when deleting an email?

How can I stop the mail app from moving to the next message when deleting an email?
I like to keep messages as new until I can take action on them, but this just makes an unnecessary step. I do not have this problem on my iPhone, but I am still running 5.0.1 on the phone and have the new iPad 5.1 software.

Hi furiousbalancing,
With regards to deleting messages in Mail, you may find the following portion of the following article helpful:
To prevent the next message from being automatically selected (and marked as read), hold down the Option key when you delete a message.
Mail (Mavericks): Delete messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14900
You can also use Command-Shift-U to toggle a message between Read and Unread (command should be the same in Mavericks):
Mail (Mountain Lion): Keyboard shortcuts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11679
You can also close the Preview portion of the Mail window, which should then require you to double-click on a message to open it and have it show as read (it appears the double click on the seperator may no longer work in Mavericks, but you should still be able to drag it to make it disappear):

Why is the next message no longer selected when I delete/move the previous message?

I noticed yesterday that after I delete or move a message in a folder the next message is highlighted but it's grey, as if the function has moved to a different section. It's far more efficient if I can move from one message to the next and delete/move messages without the function defaulting to a different area after I delete/move an email. Was there an update that changed something? Can I get this setting back if it was something that was changed?

Did you clear the cache as well as this can be caused by having content in the cache that has been expired?
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
Are you using a bookmark to open these pages or does this also happen if you open the main page of those sites?
You can also check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data in case pages are opened automatically when Firefox is started.
Rename (or delete) the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox profile folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).
You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.

When deleting a message in mail, how do you get it to advance to the next message? whenever i delete a message it goes back to the previous message.

when trying to delete a message in mail, i would prefer to advance to the next message. i delete a message and the curser goes back to an earlier message. i usually delete the most recent messages first.

First of all, you've posted in the Snow Leopard forum, but your profile says you're running Leopard, not Snow Leopard. What version of Mac OS X are you really running? You should always be sure that your profile matches the forum you're posting in, otherwise the "solution" to your problem may be totally ineffective.
Part of your problem is that deleting Mail messages depends on how you have them ordered. If they are listed in Descending Date order (most recent at the top), and you want to delete a series of consecutive emails from an earlier time, you should select the last one in that group and press the Delete key; with each one that's deleted, the selection will move to the next one up the list. You could also select the first one in the group, then Shift-click on the last one in the group and press Delete to get rid of them in one step.
If you have them listed in Date Ascending order (most recent at the bottom), you would have to select the oldest message(s) you want to delete and select it (or them) and press the Delete key, and the selection would move down the list to the next most recent message in the window.

Send data via HTTP and wait 10 Seconds before sending next Message

Hi Folks,
I am doing an IDOC - XI - HTTP scenario.
after sending a message via the HTTP-receiver I have to wait up to 10 Seconds, before my partner accept the next Message.
Is there a way to configure the HTTP-receiver to wait?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris,
You can use ccBPM for this scenario.
Scenario 1 :
1 IDOC contains multiple records, so you can convert to multiline items.
Loop base on the multiline items (Block Step).
    Send Step for sending http request.
    wait step to wait for 10 seconds.
Scenario 2 :
1 IDOC contains only single record. so you need to collect the IDOC until certain time.
Loop base on the multiline items (Block Step).
    Send Step for sending http request.
    wait step to wait for 10 seconds.
Regards
Fernand

Next message/previous message - how to? new user

I'm new to Macs. So far I like it.
When reading an email message, can I click forward or backward through the messages in that folder? I don't see this option/feature.
I see "delete", "junk", "reply", "reply all", "forward", "print". I'm looking for something like "next message" and "previous message", so I can just click forward and backward through the inbox.
Thanks

Hello Ryan.
You can use keyboard shortcuts to take pictures of the screen in Mac OS X.
To take a picture of the whole screen, press Command-Shift-3.
To take a picture of part of the screen, press Command-Shift-4, then drag to select the area you want in the picture.
To take a picture of a window, the menu bar, the Dock, or other area, press Command-Shift-4, then press the Space bar. Move the pointer over the area you want so that it's highlighted, then click. If you decide you want to drag to select the area, press the Space bar again.
If you press Command-Shift-4 and decide you don't want to take the screen shot, press the Escape key.
Screen shots are saved as files on the desktop. If you want to put the screen shot in the Clipboard, rather than create a file, hold down the Control key when you press the other keys. You can then paste the picture into a document.
You can use the Grab application to take a picture of all or part of your computer screen.
Open Grab (located in /Applications/Utilities) and choose a command from the Capture menu.
Selection takes a picture of a part of the screen that you select.
Window takes a picture of a window you select.
Screen takes a picture of the entire screen.
Timed Screen lets you start a timer and activate part of the screen (such as a menu), and then takes a picture of the screen.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
To see information about a screen shot you've taken, such as the size and depth, choose Edit > Inspector.
To save a screen shot, choose File > Save. Grab saves screen shots as files in TIFF format. You can use the Preview application to view these files and export them to other formats, such as JPEG.

Deleting mail and moving to "previous" or "next" message

How do you do it...?
for one of my mail accounts, when I delete a message mail moves to the next message... on my main account... after I delete mail, it moves to the previous message.... how do you change/alter these settings?

I believe it has to do with the sort order. When you delete, the selection goes up, no matter which way it is sorted.

Automatically highlight the next message and remove the "unread" status

In my inbox on Ipad, when I swipe and delete a message or highlight the message and hit the delete icon in the upper right corner, it will automatically highlight the next message and remove the "unread" bullet next to the message. This is version 7.1. Is there a way tnot to have your messages marked as unread when you haven't read them yet?

You can hit the small flag icon and mark it as unread yourself.

Next message / previous message shortcuts?

On my Outlook account at work, I can move through my messages by opening one message, and then clicking the "next message / previous message" arrows on the taskbar. The new message opens directly in place of the previous one.
In Mail, I have to close one message, return to the Inbox and then open the next message. I've looked through these posts, and in the OS X Tiger Missing Manual and can't find a similar keystroke/button to navigate directly from the message window.
I hate to acknowledge that MS EVER has a simpler, more efficient way to do anything, but I may have to make an exception here! Anyone got a clue?

Opening Next Message

I just started using Mail as my mail reader and I can't figure something out. I'm sure I'm over looking something but it's driving me crazy. After I finish reading a message, I want to read the next message but there is no arrow to take me to the next message. Even if I delete the one I'm reading (which is not what I always want), it takes me to my list of messages.
I'd like to be able to go through all my messages without going back to the list of messages. I know I could do that in Entourage (and can do it at work in Outlook). I've looked at customizing the toolbar but that doesn't help.
Thanks.

I think HH4 means that when Mail has a specific email message open in its own window, there is no way to go to the next message. (i.e. each email has to be double clicked to be opened in a window, in Entourage and Outlook there is a feature that lets you roll through emails in a full window view other than the window/frame that the list view of emails is in.)
I think the other posters here are talking about the message view frame at the bottom of the window below the list of emails. If you have an email selected in the upper frame and are viewing it in the lower frame, you can use the arrow keys to roll to the previous or next email.
Hope I clarified things, and I agree that I preferred the Entourage feature, but it is one of the things I gave up when moving to Apple's Mail, which is better integrated into the system.

Next Message after Junk

In Mavericks (though this may have been before), using the classic layout, when I click on email10 and then click on (Junk) in the toolbar, the next message highligted and displayed depends on the position of the _previous_ email that had been selected. So, assuming I have 20 emails email1, email2, ... email20, sorted by Date Received ascending (newest at the bottom).
If email20 is selected, then I select email10 and (Junk), the next selection is email11. If email4 is selected, then I select email10 and (Junk), the next selection is email9. This can be distressing when junking a series of spam emails ... especially when it seems that the junked messages are disappearing (this may be due to a very large junk mailbox).
Is there a way to configure mail so that the direction does not depend on the previous selected email?
thanks,
Mike.

Keyboard shortcut to advance to next message

Is there any way to advance to the next message in Mail when you have a message open and you don't use the pane? In Entourage I could hit Opt+] to move through a list of messages, closing the one I had open and opening the next one automatically, which is especially handy when you are trying to quickly go through multiple results in a search query.
If this is not something that Mail can do out of the box, are there any ad-ons available to give Mail this functionality? This is a huge feature in my view and I'm surprised it's not intuitive, or possibly even included.
Thanks,
-Lewis

Thank you so much. I've been trying to find a way to do this for a long time!
