Password Protect my mail widget and sms messages

Hi, I am sure you have been asked this plenty of times, there are times when I loan my iphone to say a friend to make a call but I don't want him to open my email and read my messages is there a way to password protect my mail widget and if so how.

Sorry, no. You can only password protect the whole phone.

Does anyone have any suggestions for password protecting e-mail on the i pad?

Does anyone have any suggestions for password protecting e-mail on the i pad? Other people sometimes want to use my i pad but I don't want them to have access to my e-mail (which is on AOL)
Presently you can password protect the whole i pad by having to put in a 4 digit code to open it, but once it's open whoever is using it has access to everything you have on it.

Skydiver...that did it!! I shut the mail app from automatically opening and now I can sign onto my AOL acct. through Safari!! I had called Apple Care and had asked different peope in Apple stores about this and no one but you had any suggestions! YAY!! Thanks!!!

Separate Email and SMS messages not found

Hi Guyz,
I'm just wondering, I can't find any options under messages separating email and SMS messages on my 8100. Would this be a platform issue? My current platform is v4.2.0. Is there a way to download and upgrade a new platform? Or can i just download a theme that has that option...
Thanks in advance

Go into messages,
Press Menu button,
Scroll to options,
then general options,
scroll down and you will see SMS and Email inboxes: Theme controlled etc, change it to seperate.
If your issue is resolved, put a checkmark in the green box that contains the resolution.

Hey @piyali, I wanted to inform you that your phone doesn't have a software to transfer that information. But for you to know when you transfer the messages to the computer it will just appear a regular notepad document, so basically, you could just copy the information from the text message into a notepad in your computer and you can keep those important memories for yourself.

I am using outlook express for my mail. When using internet explorer on PC I could set it up so I could simultaneously see all my inboxes, the mail details and a message preview. Can I do this on my Mac?

About accessing using a browser: I can get in using Firefox or Safari, butI cant set the page up to see all my inboxes at the same time (so I can file emails appropriately) or get a preview to save opening every mail

My call logs and SMS messages display the incorrect contact details on the BlackBerry q10

Hello there!
I met serious problem like in the subject. Is anybody know what is going on ?
Best regards,
Paweł

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Here is a KB that discusses that error:
KB34772 Call logs and SMS messages display the incorrect contact details on the BlackBerry 10 smartphone
Unfortunately, it contains nothing useful -- except for formal recognition by BlackBerry of the issue. We would then hope that a future OS release will correct it.
Good luck and let us know!

Can I password protect my mail, SMS, and phone mess. without locking the whole iphone?

Hi - I am trying to figure out if there is a way to keep my email, MSM's and phone messages protected without locking the entire phone. My son likes to play with the apps and others may pick it up to surf the net, which I don't mind, I just don't want them to be able to look at all of my stuff. Thx

No, it's all or nothing. Sorry.

Mail Preferences and lost Messages

Had an issue after a software update: finder constantly relaunches. Tried, PRAM zap, reinstall sys, removing com.apple.finder.plist preference. Nothing worked.
Then I relocated my entire preference file. Now the problem is gone, it was some preference, I do not know which one.
Now I have to set up some programs again, or swap in the prefs from the old folder. The problem is that I have no mail boxes on my mac in mail. All of my messages from the years, catagorized into folders, are gone.
Looks like the first time I every opened mail. I have original prefs folder and all its contents, however if I swap the old prefs back into the lib, most prefs return on restart, however there is still nothing in mail and the finder relaunching error resumes.
Where did my mail go? Did new preferences for mail overwrite my entire mail archive? How can I find them? Where did they go?
Unfortunately I have been meaning to back them up ever since I lost the last backup. Too many good numbers in my emails, user names, passwords, activation codes, directions to Eden. I want them back!
Ideas?

No real help from me I'm afraid but just had a call from my brother who was just lost all his mail setting and messages, mail is appears as if it was started for the first time. His Mail folders in the Library have his pop and mac account folders but no contents.
Have you checked if the messages are in your library? (Home > Library > Mail)

Can you password protect your mail so when you want to access any mail you must enter a password?

Can you password protect your email so when you want to access any of your mail accounts you must enter a password? In other words before I can see my mail I must enter a password.

On Oct 10, 2007, Matthew Morgan answered this question (discussion is now archived). I wanted to inquire further to his comment:

     Cherster,
     You could go to Settings>General>Passcode Lock and set a password to secure all your      personal data.
Matthew - in which program are our suggesting going to Settings?
Thaks.

Is there a way to password-protect the Mail app?

I've looked through the Settings and didn't see anything. I know I can password-protect the entire device, but that seems like overkill.
Is there something I'm missing or even an app that would let me password-protect just the Mail app?

Seriously, if I want to hand someone my Touch, there's no way of keeping them from accessing my email? Why wouldn't there be a setting to secure your mail -- or, to paraphrase the ads, why isn't there "an app for that"?

Reset my password via e-mail link and can't login

It has been awhile since I've used spotify and I didn't remember my password so I requested a password reset e-mail. After following the link and picking my new password it automatically logged me in. I wanted to make sure that the password worked so I could try to login to spotify on my phone. At this point the website refused to let me login with my password claiming it was incorrect. I tried to reset my password one more time and it again refused to let me login using my password. Can anyone offer any help?

Hi I need help logging into Spotify with email. I have spotfity on my computer and when I reset my password, it won't let me login. I keep getting this error message " The username or password is incorrect" I reset my password again and it still keeps giving me that error message. Please help, this is a really annoying probelm .FYI, I do not want to login with my facebook account, just prefer to use email. Thanks.

Different alerts for email and sms messages for a contact with custom ring tone

Hello,
I have a Curve 8530 with OS 5.0.0.395.
I have my default sound profile set up to play one type of alert sound when I receive and email message and another when I receive an SMS message (so I know the difference without looking at my phone). That works fine except for contacts that I also have a custom ring tone set up for. It seems that under the Custom Ring Tones/Alerts section of the contact there is only one entry for Messages and it applies to both email and SMS. If I have the contact's message alerts set to the alert I have for email, then their SMS messages play the same alert and I might think it's an email. Or if I have the messages alerts set to the SMS alert sound then their emails sound like SMS messages. Is there a way to have a custom ring tone set up for a contact but still allow their emails and SMS messgaes to follow the current sound profile's settings?
Thanks.

Hello,
Have you had any luck resolving this issue. I had a 8230 and this was possible. But like you I can get the 8530 to work. If you found the solution, please let me know.

I have duplicate mail accounts and deleted messages keep redownloading in gmail

I am using Mountain Lion and I have a me.com email account, gmail account, and sbcglobal.net account. I set up my accounts in iMail and I use iCloud, but now I have duplicate mail accounts and every time I delete messages from my gmail account, the next time I go into Mail, all the deleted messages are back in my gmail account. How do I stop this from happening and how do I make it so that I don't have duplicates of everything!

All 3 email accounts show up under Inbox, but all three also show up as iCloud, sbcglobal.net, and gmail. The iCloud account will occasionally get duplicates, the sbcglobal.net account only gets mail that sbcglobal.net has put into a "bulk" folder and seems to be all junk mail and does not show up in the sbcglobal.net inbox account and the gmail shows up in both places, but I can delete messages in the gmail inbox account and they do not download again, but the second gmail account is the one that keeps redownloading the already deleted messages into the gmail "all mail" folder. I have tried deleting the gmail account and have gone to gmail's help page, but they are behind with set up for Mac Mail. The set up is for Mail 3.0 and not 6.2. It keeps downloading over a thousand emails into this gmail "all mail" folder. Is there any way to stop this?

Mail Composed, and incoming messages displayed Font too small.

Most emails I receive and my outgoing composed messages use a font size around 12 point. People who receive my emails see a normal size, but while I am composing or reading incoming messages the font displayed is too small and difficult to read.
When I use other applications where I also use or view a 12 point font, and have the viewing magnification set to 100%, the displayed font is just fine. I think this is due to my screen resolution which is set to 1280x800 on my 13" MacBook.
When I change my screen resolution to 1024x768, the mail displayed 12 point font becomes readable, and in other applications the 12 point font at 100% magnification is the same as when I was using the 1280x800 screen resolution.
I have tried entering Command-Plus to magnify the displayed mail message, it actually increases the font size in the message rather than magnifying the message and keeping the font the same.
Is there another way I can magnify just the displayed message without magnifying the whole desktop/screen?
Thanks in Advance.
Jeff Cameron

Yes, setting the monitor to the default resolution, it does look fine. But for applications like Word, Pages, Preview and many other when you set the display zoom magnification to 100.00 regardless of the screen resolution the text seems normal, but in Mail, there is no screen zoom magnification, and so the higher the screen resolution, the smaller the text in composed and received messages is.
