Not getting all of my messages

Hello all,
new Mac user here. Just made the switch from PC.
Anywho, I didn't much like the way gmail displayed in Safari, so I decided to set Mail up to my gmail account. The first issue I had with it was that Mail simply added emails I sent to others to my Inbox. I made up a quick workaround by just sorting by name and dragging all of the mail I sent to the sent folder. The bigger issue I'm having is that Mail stopped getting messages from gmail. The last message it downloaded is over a year old, and I can't get it to get any newer ones. Should I try to delete the account and re-set it up, or is there some trick I'm not doing right?

It is not Mail that puts messages send to others, via webmail, into the Inbox, but rather a function of Gmail.
Is your Gmail account set up as POP or IMAP -- sounds like POP. Gmail is not true POP (or true IMAP), and with POP only presents a subset of the Inbox for access with an email client as POP. Only the first device or computer that accesses gets the messages. The next one to attempt sees no messages to download.
Do you access your Gmail account with a phone, by any chance?
In the web interface with Gmail, in Settings/Forward and POP access there is a selection that can be made to again present all messages for POP download.
More info, please.

I am not getting all my txt messages when I look at settings- messages- send and receive my phone number is not checked... how can I change it?

I am not receiving all my txt messages, I think it is because in Setting -> messages -> send and receive, my cell phone number doesnt have a check next to hit. Im not able to check it. any ideas?

Old phone is off and number is fully ported? SIM card new and installed/seated properly? All Apple credentials disabled if coming from iPhone?

Not getting all my mail

I have an Imac and an Ipad WIFI and use a Time machine base station WIFI. I also have two email accounts, both on the same ISP. The Imac is not turned on most of the time and I use the Ipad for most of my daily computing. The problem is the Ipad is not getting all my mail messages from the server. Whenever I start up my IMAC, I get more messages that the Ipad received. I have done a full reset on the Ipad, but as yet can't fix the problem.
Any ideas??

Very long shot - which might have something to do with it. The downloads are set to 25, and I don't refresh the load button. However, that is only part of the answer I think. This morning, I sent out two email messages to a group, of which I am on the list, and one my Ipad I received only one. Alos, one of the things that happens is that my wife is the other account. And we belong to a community which has a server which bounces email to all members of the community, when we send the server an email. Quite ofen, one of us will get the mail, but not the other, and it is not consistent as to who gets the email.
Fun isn't it???

Mail not getting all messages from server and other strange behavior

Hello All,
Mail has been doing some odd things for me of late (at least the last week) and I'm lost for a solution to my problem. As far as I can tell, perhaps my Prefs. have become corrupted, or at least something in relation to Mail has become corrupted. Perhaps someone has a solution to this issue before I have to back it all up and NUKE the whole **** app to get back up and running properly.
The main issue I appear to be having is that Mail is not getting all of my Mail messages from my server. I can log into my web-mail interface provided by my domain host and can see there that there are many e-mails that don't appear to be coming down the pipe to the Mail.app client. I'm getting some e-mail's but not all....
*Here are all the things that I've checked:*
• The missing e-mails are not being picked up as Junk and are not in the Junk folder
• I have done a search within Mail for the missing e-mail's and nothing turns up anywhere.
• I have checked on the server end that I'm not maxing out my InBox or that there are any other service issues from my domain host provider.
• I have been into Prefs and checked my account settings - most (see below) of which appear to be as normal and are fine.
*Here are the weird things that I've noticed:*
• When I went into the Prefs. for the account in question, I noticed that my login had changed. For example - it usually it is "[email protected]", however it had seemed to have changed to just "johndoe" - I know this wasn't me as my domain host will not allow me to access any mail unless the login is the full mail address.
• In RULES, every rule I double click to check on seems mostly fine, apart from the fact that every "Account is:" the pull down menu just appears as blank. Usually it says "Account is: ([email protected])"
It's there last 2 items that make me think something is corrupted - so I guess my question is, what pref or file has corrupted and how can I fix it without having to give Mail.app a digital enema?
Any assistance would be most helpful - missing some but not all your incoming e-mail messages is quite annoying, as you can guess...!
Thanks,
Boz

Hello Boz.
This appears to be a rules issue. Mail is almost certainly downloading those messages, but they’re probably being processed by your rules in an unexpected way — given the information you’ve provided, maybe because there is something wrong with the file where the account settings are stored.
Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
/Library/InputManagers/
/Library/Mail/Bundles/
~/Library/InputManagers/
~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
ls -1 /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
<hr>
Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, and ensuring that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
1. Write down your Mail > Preferences > Accounts settings or take screen shots of them.
2. If you have a .Mac account and .Mac synchronization of Mail data is enabled either in Mail > Preferences > General or in System Preferences > .Mac, disable it before proceeding.
3. Quit Mail.
4. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to solve the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the Mail folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
5. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this solves the problem). If you have a backup of your data that includes a working copy of this file, you may try restoring it from the backup to avoid steps 6-8.
6. Open Mail. You’ll have to set up your non-.Mac accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in ~/Library/Mail/ when done.
7. You’ll have to re-configure some of your Mail > Preferences settings. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
8. As a side effect of re-creating com.apple.mail.plist, Mail might rename Outbox (which is where messages waiting to be sent are stored) to Delivered. The name of that mailbox is actually a misnomer, as it would contain messages (if any) that couldn’t be delivered for some reason. You can delete that mailbox if you wish.
9. If the problem is fixed now and .Mac synchronization of Mail data was enabled at the beginning, enable it again, go to System Preferences > .Mac > Advanced, click Reset Sync Data, and choose the appropriate options to reset the Mail data stored on the .Mac server with the data locally stored on the computer, i.e. sync data must flow from the computer to the .Mac server.

Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

My brother and I phone number is link together on the same iTunes and Icloud therefore I am getting all his text messages on my phone, how do I stop this? He does not even have an Iphone anymore.

My brother and I phone number is link together on the same iTunes and Icloud therefore I am getting all his text messages on my phone, how do I stop this? He does not even have an Iphone anymore.

Try going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". If that doesn't work, you'll have to tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different Apple ID for iMessage.

My husband and I have our iphones and icloud set up. He is getting all my text messages coming through to his phone, how can i get this changed so it does not happen? does it have anything to do with icloud?

Well, you use the different accounts such Phone Numbers, email addresses. And make sure that your iPhones have no receipient address in common, then you can avoid this issue.
I use iMessage on my iPhone, iPad, MacBook Pro, iPod touch.
Each of them has a individual address to receive messages, so they won't combine all the messages among all the devices.
Try this, if it doesn't work, tell me, I'll figure another way out.

Not getting all required samples

Hi, I'm new to Labview and don't understand why I'm not getting all the samples I ask for.
I have a USB-6212-BNC module collecting data from 2 analog voltage inputs. I'm using ai0 for the analog trigger, using basically the same VI found as an example here: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-11764
The problem is that I am not getting all the samples needed. As you can see in the example below I only got ~1000 samples when asking for 2000.

Hi bigdoug,
the output of the graph is what you get from the (missing) subVI calculation.
The DAQmxRead is configured to read 2000 samples and it surely does so as you would get a DAQmx error message instead...
Please check your subVI or attach it here with some meaningful default data!

Not getting all emails and sync issues

For some reason I am not getting all of my emails on my blackberry. I am using Outlook Express at home. Most emails come through but it is weird--some never get to my blackberry inbox and some replies I get from messages I send never get to my blackberry but appear in my outlook. What is the deal?
Also, even though my bb is set to reconcile on the mailbox and handheld, I still have to delete messages in both places. How do i fix that?
Thanks!!

Try temporarily turning off the desktop. If the problem goes away change the settings on the desktop to leave messages on the server. Or, if it is an MS Exchange or IMAP account it is probably automatically filing messages in folders as soon as they appear.

Not getting all of my email

Somehow, I'm not getting all of my email (via iCloud). My wife forwared an email to me, I got the "ding" but no email. She sent it to another IMAP account that I have and I got it just fine. She repeatedly tried to send it to my .mac account and nothing is received. Sometimes during the day, I hear the email "ding" but no mail is received. The biggest problem is subscribing to various developer forums that require replying to an email to finish the subscription. I'm hung up in never-never land. I get a lot of mail from a lot of sources with no problems - just not sure if it's 100%. Running Mac Mini 2011 with Mountain Lion 10.8.2, iCloud with .mac/.me/.icloud email account. I don't know if this is an iCloud or mail.app problem. Any ideas? Thanks.

Update: I guess it isn't mail.app because I don't get these emails on my iPhone 4S either.

Hey, Toad, thanks for the links. Yeah, I saw the Macworld article but I didn't think these email had anything of a nature that would trigger iCloud's spam filter. But, the Macintouch article I had not seen and it tells me a lot.
I guess I'll have to plot some strategy on how to handle this stuff.
What is crazy, though, is that I get the *ding* but no mail. I tried using the Activity window, had my wife send the the email, but the Activity window contents just fly by and the window clears. If the Activity window had a Clear button for the user to use, it might be more helpful. Duh!
Anyway, thank you very much for responding. I'll re-register with my development forums using a different name and email address.
(I might ask my wife to send her email to her iCloud account and see if it makes it.)
Kind Regards

Why the 2LIS_08TRTK extractor can not get all data

Hello, BW Gurus.
Why the 2LIS_08TRTK and 2LIS_08TRTLP extractors can not get all data. I had used the RSA3 and get 10 registers, when a check at the VTTK table I had 20 registers, I didnt use filters at RSA3, could you help to know what happen o correct it.

Is it because
<i>
Shipment documents and their dependent objects (shipment stages as well as shipment items [deliveries in the shipment]) are only extracted into BW when the Shipment completion status has been set.
This is necessary because the numeric values that result from the delivery documents are only established at the time. If the data were already stored earlier in BW, the shipment data would not be updated if the delivery notes were changed in BW.

Not getting all texts on 650

i am a newbie and i apologize in advance for my ignorance.
i am now on my second treo 650. both have had the same problem. i am not getting all my texts from other verizon friends. on their phone it says it went though, but i never receive it. on my old phone i could take out my battery and then it would come through after the phone restarted, not so on my replacement. i am just not getting them. the sound on my sms is not working all the time either.
i am getting a little frustrated considering i pay for texts i am not getting and i never know i am not getting them until someone asks me why i didn't respond!
thanks in advance for any help!!!

Not getting all my bytes from inout stream.

hi,
i'm writing an i-appli that interacts with a java web server. my problem is that i'm not getting all of my bytes through to the phone.
actually i'm using an emulator right now. when i use the real phone i set content length on the server side and it all goes through. but for some reason when i set content length on the server the emulator doesn't pick up anything(using i-jade emulators) bug??.
it should work though because when i print out the number from in.available() it matches with the number of bytes that i want to go through.
but when i grab the int from the read it is less than what returns from available().
here's a snippet of the i-appli code. i'm printing out TESTBYTELEN to the screen and it is less than when i set it to 'bc' from in.available. (i'm getting 3784 of 4420 bytes EVERY time)
thanks for any help

========================================
HttpConnection conn = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(IPString,Connector.READ,true);
conn.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.GET);
conn.setRequestProperty("Content-Type","text/plain");
conn.connect();
InputStream in = conn.openInputStream();
if (in == null)
throw new IOException("servlet unreachable");
bc = in.available();
streamb = new byte[bc];
TESTBYTELEN = in.read(streamb,0,bc);
in.close();
conn.close();
=========================================

Also, testing with available is not that good... it just tells you how many bytes can be read without blocking, not the amount of bytes that can actually be read. So the code should be more like:
bc = MAX_BYTES_TO_BE_READ;
streamb = new byte[bc];
int bytesread;
int off = 0;
int len = bc;
while ((bytesread = in.read(streamb,off,len) != -1) {
off += bytesread;
len -= bytesread;
(to clarify, in.read returns the number of bytes that were actually read and -1 when there are no more bytes to be read)

Help: Not getting all data from text data type

Hi there
I have a stored procedure that returns a couple of fields and one of the fields is of datatype TEXT. In my ResultSet, I do not get all the data back that is stored in the TEXT datatype. I have say about 600 charactors in this field, but only 30 charactors are returned. Is there a reason why this is happening and how can I fix it?
Please help?
Thanks

I set that field to have a normal string of about 50 charactors. Namely: "this is a note that is about 49 charactosrs long." (exclude the quotes). And I still got 30 charactors back only.
I set a shorter text value of 21 charactors and that returned all 21 charactors.
The text that is usually in this field is:
"URL=SubsidiaryNarrative.html�BABY_CARE_PRODUCTS=false�AIDS_FOR_PHYSICALLY_DISABLED=false�SPORT_SUPPLEMENTS=true�NATURAL_REMEDIES=false�COSMETICS_FRAGRANCE=false�WOMANS_HEALTH=false�ADDITIONAL_CARDS=No�EXERCISE_ROUTINE=Yes�NUMBER_OF_CHILDREN=0"
And I got out "URL=SubsidiaryNarrative.html�B"

How do I recover photos from my AppleTV photo stream? when I reset my iPhone, I did not get all of my photos back. How do I get these photos off of my Apple TV?

how do I recover photos from my AppleTV photo stream? when I reset my iPhone, I did not get all of my photos back. How do I get these photos off of my Apple TV?

Hi MrRhea,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you have photos in your Photo Stream that you would like to download. The photos are not actually stored on your Apple TV, it sounds like they are being displayed from your Photo Stream. Please read over the attached article for information on your Photo Stream and how to download these photos.
My Photo Stream FAQ - Apple Support
Because your Mac and PC have more storage than your iOS devices, you can choose to download all of your My Photo Stream photos automatically.
In iPhoto or Aperture preferences on your Mac, select Photos (or Photo Stream) > My Photo Stream > Automatic Import. All of your photo stream photos will import into your Events, Projects, Photos, Faces, and Places folders in iPhoto or Aperture.
On your PC with My Photo Stream on in the Control Panel, all of your photos will import intoC:\\Users\<user name>\Pictures\iCloud Photos\My Photo Stream
Best regards,
Joe
