Problem changing location of Deleted email

I've got my iPhone setup to use my imap server. Everything works well so far, have all the folders displayed, and things look good.
I can't seem to change the location of the Deleted Emails though. Whenever I go into advanced options, click "Deleted Mailbox" the setup crashes and goes back to the home screen.
I was able to change the location of Sent email, but now when I click that button it also crashes.
Is this a known issue with the iPhone? Or does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks

I had a problem with the Mail app crashing whenever I'd try sending email from a Yahoo account. A reboot fixed it, so you might try that. Or you might try resetting your iPhone, though you'll need to reconfigure certain aspects of it.

  • I have iphone 5c.  Having email problem.  Does not delete emails showing in inbox from date 8/27 thru 9/23.   When deleted, these same emails repopulate in inbox.  What is going wrong?  How do I fix the problem?

    Ihave iphone5c.  Does not permanently delete emails showing in inbox.  When they are move to Trash then inbox at first shows empty.  However if you leave Mailbox and return then all the emails that were previously deleted and now repopulated in Inbox.  I have tried various things like marking them "read" before deleting, then moving them to Trash, and they still return.  What is going wrong and how do I fix the problem?

    What your describing sounds lot like Nortons anti virus, but other do it to.
    Multiple copies of the same email over and over are almost always anti virus incoming mail scanning. Turn off scanning and the problem goes away turn it back on and it resumes.
    My guess is that your filter issues, and search problems are also related to this uniquitous and most ignored security tool that messes up far more than it should..
    Deleting the index
    I assume you mean the global-messages-db.sqlite. if you don't close Thunderbird and delete it now. Searches will be incomplete until it rebuilds and the time to do that will have a lot to do with how much mail there is and how busy the computer is.
    Now create an exclusion in your anti virus program for the Thunderbird profile folders. My guess is it is trying to scan the files in your profile every time Thunderbird tries to open them and generally turning things into a tug of war, which Thunderbird looses as it just does not wait around if files are locked. It expects exclusive access to it's files immediately, not in 10 minutes when the anti virus has done it's thing. So things get added to the index but not removed. Mails don't move as the destination or source file is "in use" etc.

  • Problems changing location

    I have an account with the Apple Store online - [email protected] As far as the Apple store is concerned, I'm Amercan. They accept that my AmEx card is registered in New York, and allow me to buy goods there, delivering them to my NY office. This is fine.
    I also have an account with the iTunes store - [email protected] They do NOT believe that I am American. They think I'm British. The SAME credit card is NOT registered in the US as far as iTunes is concerned.
    More frustratingly, iTunes will not allow me to sign in as [email protected] - the ID that the Apple Store recognises. Tells me that the name isn't recognised. But if I try to set it up as a new account, iTunes tells me that the Apple ID is already in use.
    I have been emailing Apple support for over a week. The best that they could come up with was that I bought iTunes gift certificates at the US store, and then email them to myself. In the absence of a customer services department to whom I would like to complain, I wondered if other customers have had the same problem?

    Hi Terence,
    Thanks for your reply.  I did as you suggested.  And I imported a few photos that I was having trouble changing the location on.
    Some strange things happened and I am really at a loss...
    The photos imported with no location at all (i.e. the old location that I was trying to change was not in each photo).  Therefore, when I clicked on info, I was prompted to "assign a location", which I did.  I then proceeded to modify the location numerous times (single and batch).  With all tests the location change worked.  I noticed that when doing this (changing the location by typing over a location - in the fields that appeared in the drop box below, there was small type that indicated something like "renaming the location").  I did not get this before.
    I then went into my original library, to the same photos that I was having trouble modifying and that "renaming location" indication now appeard.  I of course then made the location change I wanted to this single photo.  The strange thing was that as soon as I did this, all of the other photos in the event reverted back to the location changes that I spent hours doing the other day.  The changes were not subtle (e.g. this morning locations in all photos indicated "bali", and now the photos have specific different town names in them, which is what I spent hours doing the other day).
    I am happy but at a complete loss to what is going on.  I guess your tip seemed to trigger something?
    Thanks!

  • Changing From Field deletes email content - 2010

    Our users usually send emails from a different email address
    [email protected] rather than their normal email address.
    In Outlook 2010 they have the From field showing and usually change this prior to composing their email. However if they forget to do this and they compose their email, then chane the From field the content (but no their default signature) disappears.
    Any ideas? I'm a bit stumpted

    A little late to the party, but I encountered this issue in Outlook 2010 recently and could not find a solution documented anywhere online.
    It turned out in our case that the entire body of the email was being recognised as a signature, so any text entered in the body of the email was cleared when changing the "from" field.
    Hope this helps someone.

  • How do I stop ActiveSync from deleting emails on server

    Hi, 
    We came across a problem where users are deleting emails from their activesync devices accidentally. We need to stop it besides providing them activesync facility.
    Is there any way we can restrict sync of email deletion from activesync devices so the sync from Device to Server remains disabled. What we want is 
    Server --> Device Sync Enable
    Device --> Server SYnc Disable
    Hasan

    Hi
    You will have to look at a POP3 account that leaves the mail on the server.
    I have not seen a setting in active sync that stop mail from being deleted. If you make a change on your phone it will update the mailbox.
    Mails will be in the deleted items. How are users "accidently" deleting mail when you actually have to press the delete/trash button?

    Hey 1Jerry,
    Thanks for the question. You'll want to delete and re-add your iCloud account (utilizing the new Apple ID address). When prompted, opt to keep as much information on your device as possible. The following article provides information on how to do so:
    iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2613
    Turn off iCloud completely
    Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, tap Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Can not delete emails and tool bar at top does not change over

    Can not delete emails and tool bar at top does not  change over from safari. HELP

    If you hold the command key down (the one with the ⌘ on it) and hit the + key you can make the fonts larger. Might help out, I know as I've gotten up there in years I've had to use it more and more
    In the mean time while twtwtw mulls this over, can you supply any further information? Did the system crash or didi anything change before you started having the problem? Are you really running 10.5.8 as your profile says?
    We'll start with those for now,
    regards
    Message was edited by: Frank Caggiano BTW ⌘- - (command minus) will make the fonts smaller

  • TS3899 cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6.

    cannot receive or send email from my hotmail account, refuses to verify server. I have changed my password, deleted the account numerous times, any solutions? all on ios 6. it was working up until a few days ago and now refuses to load on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4S
    in the process deleted all my contact, very annoying.
    all help is much appreciated.
    interesting that my gmail account does work perfectly.

    this may or may not help - but give it a try.  On a forum some were reporting that talk21 is now under the yahoo umbrella.  below are the steps this use listed.  (This was an android forum, but the email settings should be the same.  In short it looks like their server names have changed.  An existing account may have simply been forwarded - but if you are reinstalling, it may want a clean install to the right servers.)  Pay particular attention to the server names and port settings.  (this thread was started based on a discussion of Imap vs pop - you are already an Imap person - so ignore that part)
    See if this helps.
    why settle for pop3, when IMAP works with talk21 and not only does mail get pushed out faster with IMAP, but when you click refresh it will be received faster than pop3.  The other advantage is subfolders are also supported with IMAP but cant be seen with POP3. This mail feature works with my android eclair & hero phone and the settings are exactly the same for win mobiles also (not tested). The mail setting up roadmap is the same from what i can remember once in the mail feature for win mobi. 
    This is what you need to do to setup Talk21 email with IMAP. 
    Incoming server settings
    IMAP server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
    Port - 143
    Security type - none 
    Outgoing Server settings
    SMTP server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    Port - 25
    Security type - none Also important note - Enable 'require sign-in'
    and enter your talk21 username and password The End...works a treat for me p.s. Its only taken me 3 years to work it out with win mobile and recently with android. Finally got it to work...hope this helps all the talk21 users out there. if there are any other similar posts out there with no answer...dont forget to mention my name when passing this post around.

  • HT6030 Having major Mail problems since I updated Maverick on my 27" iMac. Delays deleting emails and moving emails to other folders. Anyone else having this issue? If so, any known fixes?

    I have an iMac that around 3 years old. Just installed Mavericks when it first was released. I also have a Time Capsule (2TB) that runs my network to my other three Apple devices: iPad2, iPhone 5s and a new Apple TV. Having major Mail issues here. Everything is very delayed and extremely slow. Moving emails to other folders sometimes takes a few minutes and the same goes for deleting emails. Delete them and they don't go into the trash for several minutes. It's getting very frustrating to say the least. Mail also quits very often. Mail also will freeze with the little color ball spinning, therefore I would have to force quit Mail. When the errors occur, it's automatically sent to Apple but there hasn't been an update since 10.9.1 that has fixed it. Apparently, that update was only for gmail issues. Anyone having the same problem? Fixes please?

    I have my entire network and all Apple devices setup as IMAP, not POP. If your settings are setup as a POP account on all devices, emails will not erase when deleted on your other devices. Just something to keep in mind. I'm sure you're aware of this but just wanted to throw it out there. Google IMAP vs POP. However, it seems like your having the same issues as I am. I'm going to swing by an Apple store by me and speak to the genius bar and see if they can come up with something or are aware of this issue. Keep you posted.

  • I'm trying to update my apps but itunes is defaulting to an old deleted email address, how can I change it?

    I'm trying to update my apps on my ipad, but when I go to updates itunes has suddenly defaulted to an old deleted email address, how can I fix this? When I go into settings on my ipad the email address is correct, it's just itunes thats causing a problem. Can someone please help, I cant access the deleted email address and when I try to answer the security questions Apple is telling me that I have entered the incorrect date of birth.....I haven't forgotten my date of birth.... this is so frustrating. What can I do?????

    Is it a different account e.g. did you update your account with a new email address or did you create a new account ? If you updated your existing account then try logging out of the account by tapping on the id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if the updated id then shows in the Purchased tab.
    If you created a new account then all apps (and any other content) downloaded by the old account will remain tied to the old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps (and/or redownload its purchases). If you can't remember its password, and can't get the security questions reset (you don't have a rescue email address on the account ?), then you have need to contact Support in your country to get the questions and password reset.

  • TS3899 My ipad does not communicate with iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting should be changed?

    My ipad does not communicate with my iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting needs to be changed?

    It's my understanding that an iPhone can only sync with one computer. You need to choose one computer. Sounds like it syncs at work, but not at home. If you want to just sync it at home, then you have to make sure the home computer has all the info that you want on it, like music etc. Then you have to deauthorize the work computer for it to sync at home. When you connect it will ask if you want to set up as a new iPhone or restore from backup. If you don't have a backup on the home computer then either way you will be wiped clean. So any photos, contacts, notes etc you have will be erased. You would need to backup or copy your photos from your iPhone. When you connect it to your home computer, it will give you that popup message to open your iPhone files. Then you can copy those photos and save them onto your computer and sync them back in through iTunes.
    For your contacts, do you use any type of address book? If so you'll want to back that up and then transfer to your home computer. For notes, you can just email those to yourself and then save that email. I use MobileMe so the contacts issue is easily resolved.

  • TS3899 Why can't I reply to emails on my iPhone 5 - this is a recent problem, I have been able to reply and delete email messages previously.

    Why can't I reply to emails on my iPhone 5 - this is a recent problem, I have been able to reply and delete email messages previously.

    A bit more information would be needed to understand what's going on?
    What happens when you try to reply... Do you get an error message, is there no send button, does a symbol appear?
