Only show most recent message

If you receive a reply to a message you have sent, in Mail the reply ALSO shows your original message. Is there a way of setting up mail so it only shows the reply, not the original message(s) as well? And I want to set this up for the messages I've already received, not just new messages coming in.

No, that's something that the other person is doing. Just as when YOU reply to a message, you can choose to include the original message or not. You can set your own reply preferences in Mail (Mail - Preferences - Composing - Quote the text of the original message), but you cannot control other people's mail client settings.

Itunes only showing most recent podcast

Apologies is this hasn't been asked before.
I use Libsyn to host my 'FIFA 08' podcast. It hosts it fine and works through iTunes but it only shows the most recent podcast; ignoring all the previously posted ones.
I spoke to the tech guys at libsyn and they said everything was setup correctly on their end and suggested it was an iTunes issue.
Does anyone have any advice?
thanks

I'm seeing 5 episodes listed on your page in the iTunes Store, and 6 episodes (the latest being today's) when I subscribe. No doubt this 6th episode will appear in the iTunes Store too when it next crawls your feed.
So maybe the problem you're seeing is with your install of iTunes? Have you tried looking at the iTunes Store from a different computer?

IPhoto 08 only showing most recent import

iPhoto 08 is only showing my most recent import, and the sidebar to the left has disappeared. The Library is still there, and presumably healthy at 21GB. I can see it fine in Time Machine, where I can see the sidebar and the Show Recent Import (or whatever that's called) is checked.
But I can't seem to find a way to show the sidebar in iPhoto, or through any other means or menu choice choose to Show All.
I feel like, but don't know, this complication arose when I started using the camera with my new iPhone 3GS. That is the new import that iPhoto 08 is choosing to show me.
Many thanks for any help.

Move your cursor to the extreme left of the iPhoto Window until it becomes a ‘+’, then click and drag right.

History only shows most recent.

When I search for some web page I visited in a previous day, only those sites I visited today show up , regardless of whether I select "last week" or "last 6 months" or "today". Is there some setting I should change to keep all my history sorted out and accessible?

I think that you only see the last visit date of a web page and pages that you have visited in the time frame are included, but they show with the most recent visit of that web page and not when you visited in that time frame (there might also be multiple visits in that time frame).<br />
This makes pages that you visit regularly show up in every time frame with their last visit date.
I can see that with this query for November and sort by location:
place:beginTime=1383260400000000&endTime=1385852400000000&sort=4&type=1

IPhoto only showing most recent version in time machine

When I access time machine with iPhoto open, I get the current iPhoto screen, and then a series of blank screens behind it. The date bar to the right shows that I should have backups as far as Feb 2012. If I mouse over to them, they zoom out to show exact dates. If I click on one of these dates, nothing happens. I gave it 5 minutes sitting quiety just in case it was having trouble loading all the photos. No dice. The photos are in fact on the time machine backup drive, as I can access them manually by going to the specific backup set, finding iPhoto library, show package contents and navigate to the picture I want. So, it's there... just can't get to it via TM.
Any ideas on this one?
Thanks,
Tom

In Mail on my iPhone I have selected show 200 recent messages but only 10 appear how can I fix this?

Hello,
I have just recently noticed that in my Mail inbox on my iPhone 5 it is only showing 10 or so previous messages. I have turned my phone on and off, reset mail settings and made sure I have selected show 200 recent messages but still only a few show up. I have also just added my Uni email account to my iPhone and it hasn't loaded any previous emails, it's just an emty mailbox. I really need to be able to search for my previous emails so if someone knows how to fix this please help!

Maybe you have two icloud accounts?

In mail how do I stop messages from the same sender from showing up when I select the most recent message from a sender?

on my iMac, when I view messages there is a grey number at the top of the message. This number denotes the amount of messages from that sender and when I view the most recent message in my mailbox (from that sender) all of the older messages load with it and this takes a while for the message to become moarked as "read." I know that I can turn this off because I have mountain lion on my air and i do not have this issue. how can i turn it off?
thanks

thanks so much, that fixed it! before I posted this quiestions I kept looking in the mail preferences but I dind't think to look on the View menu.

POP email loading Old Messages, and not most recent messages: (not Gmail)

Hi,
I'm having an issue where my iPhone is loading old emails instead of the most recent ones on the server. I see the messages download in outlook (leave message on server). But my iPhone will download the most recent message for awhiel and it will stop.
I have it set to display 25 messages. It used to always download the most recent messages and push the old messages out. (i'd have to hit download 25 more to see more). But now it no longer does this. Also, when i delete a few messages, it downloads some messages, but not the most recent ones. Also tried completely deleteing the account and starting over. But after it fills up, the same thing happens. It worked fine for a few weeks, then it started having this problem.
I've tried deleting all email, but eventually it fills up and then starts doing the same thing.
Thoughts and help would be appreciated.

Those messages which iphone can't get are Junk mails..
First remove the account,
Go to Setting/mail and choose "show 50 or more recent messages".
Add your account again.
go back to mail settings
choose your account at the top of add account...
go to advanced
below the deleted messages
remove... choose "after one day"
under the incoming setting, delete from server choose "7 days" (which is quite enough time to keep)..
Thats all.. Fixed on my phone..
This phone is not your real mailbox. Use it to check only or respond After that delete them...
Don't keep your mails in it. Use Mail, Entourage or Outlook etc..
Peace..

All messages will only show the latest message received, but not the rest of the conversation until I send a response

I'm having some issues with my messages, text and iMessage. When I receive a message it will only show the last one sent from that person, even if they have sent me multiple texts. I am then not able to see the rest of the conversation until I send a response back. Even then the message takes longer to send than when messages is working properly. I've tried resetting and restarting the phone and it is still doing the same thing. It has done this in the past and restarting the phone usually worked, but I recently did the latest software update and it is now doing this consistently. Anyone have any similar issues or ideas to maybe try and fix it?

Hey Olivia,
If you are having an issue with your iPhone only showing the most recent message of a conversation in the Messages application, and you have already tried restarting and resetting the iPhone, the next thing to try would be to back up any data on the iPhone, erase it and set it up as a new device. See this article for directions -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Happy computing,

Why is it that when I go to the search screen to find a particular message in a conversation it comes up with the message but when I click on it it takes me to the conversation where the most recent message was sent and not the message I wanted

Why is it that when I go to the search screen and type in a particular message I want to view, my iPhone finds it but when I click on it it only takes me to the conversation at the most recently thing texted and not the particular message I clicked on?

Never occurred to me you can search messages that way, thanks.
Another way to do it is to scroll from the most recent message to the top of the screen and tap load more messages, repeatedly till you reach the one you want.
I like your method better, but with both methods it refreshes to the most recent message.

Transferred mail doesn't display "most recent" messages in iOS3

I just setup a brand new Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server and began transferring mail from offline mailboxes to the IMAP structure on the server. This works fine in Apple Mail, as it displays the entire message list and keeps a local cache. However, this does not work properly on my iPad, iPhone or those same iDevices belonging to my colleagues.
Instead, it displays a seemingly "random" list of 200 messages rather than the "most recent" messages.
An extensive search of Apple Discussions yielded three very similar cases, all seeming to involve the transfer of mail from one server to another with similar results (errors).

Has this been solved? Can someone offer me/us some help?
FTR:
I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.4), the server is also up-to-date and the iPhones/iPads are as well (3.1.3 and 3.2 respectively).
Thank you,

the message just isn't seen as a multipart message.
What do you mean by that exactly? Only the plain text version is displayed?
Send me one (tom at bluesky dot org). Not forwarded or copied -- send it to me as if I were one of the normal recipients.

HT1668 I have mine set to show 1000 recent messages but they are deleting after 25

I have my mail messages set to show the last 1000 messages but they are purging after the last 25 messages

The Show Most Recent setting for email has nothing whatsoever to do with deleting email.
Are you also accessing this email account with an email client on your computer?

Critical : i think "Mail show n Recent Messages" just got it wrong

hi, it's been a while that i had tried the smallest setting for this "Mail > Show 25 Recent Messages" for something (i thought maybe it helped Mail to work faster) I cannot feel it exactly, but i just think of it as a good behaviour for me to read and trash unused messages right away so i can manage the mails.
But, unexpectedly, Mail App has acted strange. I was not sure about this until this morning i found 89 New Mails from my boss and only some spilled into my Mail App because "right now i got more than 25 Messages stored in my app" and yet not deleted them.
I just wanted to discuss about this because, in some ways, New Mails are essentially need to be read, and we have to store some, too. But if "Mail > 25 Recent Messages" means i will only strangled myself to whatever i wished to keep, this function has got it wrong. it surely does not mean that i do not want to read any new messages which has just come, right?
In a way, you might tell me to change it to bigger number of storage, which i already did, but i only hoped that you might find other good ways for us to "let me know that i have to clean up my inbox so Mail App can fetch new mails in for you" or something.
Here are my suggestions in a flash:
• notice us by a badge, and when we entered the mail app, notice us again that you know new mails are at the server, but because i had reached my mail limit, i have to trash something or expand the limitation.
• gray-out something old, and put something new on top, it sounds strange though.
hope this helps, thanks,

You could always just scroll to the bottom of the Inbox screen and click on the load more messages link.

At the bottom of the page Settings > Messages you should have a section headed "SMS/MMS" Turn MMS messaging on then you can turn group message on.

Only show most recent message
