Q5 one of my inboxes keeps emptying

I have 3 different email accounts, the two Gmail ones work fine, my own business one works for a while but then the incoming mail just drops out and the inbox comes up empty even tho I have opened and replied and want to keep the mail.. any ideas thx

And how do I access it?
You can double click on them to open them.
I'd be tempted to create a new Inbox2 On My Mac, then quit Mail, & in the Finder dag all the ones from Inbox to Inbox2, start Maim & see if they show up.
But first, On Mail...
First Quit Mail, then I'd backup these two Mail folders, by right clicking on them in the Finder, then choose Archive/Compress.
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail
Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail Downloads
(Could be a different folder here if you chose such in Mail Prefs)
Right click on that Mail folder, choose archive, you'll get everything in the folder, and the folder itself in a file called Mail.zip, move it to a safe place, same for the Mail Downloads folder... only the plist is separate.
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
For Address Book, quit AB...
Files...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist
Folders...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/com.apple.AddressBook/

    Hi Jim. Welcome to the forums.
    You need to go to the settings of the Outlook account, and depending on the version of Outlook you have, you need to go to Advanced  settings (may be under More Settings ...) and tick a box "Leave a copy of messages on the server"

  • Inbox in Mail showing (4294963841 messages) but inbox is empty

    in OS X 10.5.7 while using Mail 3.6 (935/935.3) My inbox header shows:
    Inbox (4294963841 messages)
    but my inbox is empty. This started occurring after upgrading to 10.5.7
    M
    XMLA

    I'm having the same problem and have only noticed it since upgrading to 10.5.7. I've tried rebuilding the mailbox a few times, disabling the GrowlMail bundle, vacuuming Mail's SQLite database, and even tdeleting the account and starting over. (It's a Gmail account I connect to via IMAP.) And yet:
    Inbox (4294966402 messages)
    And the inbox is empty. I sent it an email and I get this report:
    Inbox (4294967161 messages, 1 unread)
    Not sure how one message counts as over 700, but there you go.
    This is one of two Gmail accounts I check separately, and the other account is not behaving in this manner.
    Mail also has some trouble quitting—I often have to force quit it. Not sure of those are related or not, but I have noticed it. Otherwise, this odd reporting of messages is benign, but bizarre.

  • Mac mail inbox suddenly empty

    I have an old imac running on snow leopard, and I just got my mom a new imac with lion for christmas. She has two yahoo email addresses, so we set up Mail to import both, and it's been running fine for about 2 weeks now. Then suddenly tonight, one of her inboxes was completely empty. I tried syncing, taking it offline and back online, restarting Mail, I even deleted the account and re-added it, but it's still completely empty. The other email address is still working fine.
    I've never had an issue like this with my own computer, and I just spent about an hour searching for solutions on google, to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've been praising mac for years, and now my mom's first one is super buggy (this is just one of many issues she's been having -- another annoying thing is that it's losing the wifi connection every time it comes out of sleep.) I feel like it's such a letdown!
    Anyway, I'd be very grateful if anyone knows how to fix this!

    First, I don't know if you are aware that the free standard Yahoo email accounts does not support POP or IMAP to a native mail client like Mail. To gain POP access, you have to pay $20/year. I checked, Yahoo asks you to upgrade for this privilege. Now assuming that you paid, I would disable and re-enable the POP access by logging into your Yahoo account via a web browser.

    I am not aware of a way except for photos that allows you to select multiple files in an email. I even checked settings in the Adobe Reader app, and it does not show that ability.

  • I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    I have 3 i phones.  Can I have multiple accounts on one computer where it keeps the contacta and calendar for each?

    My daughter and I both have iphones. I created an account (not separate itunes) for her on my computer so she could sync her phone/itunes but not have it interfere with mine since we have WAY different taste in music. Creating a different computer profile should work if you have separate itunes accounts, too.
    If you all use the same itunes account, you can turn on Home Sharing. That way you can all download the same content without having to pay for it again. Not sure how or if that works with separate itunes accounts.
    Hope that helps!

    Create a concatenated disk set
    Increase storage space with a concatenated RAID set (also called “Just a Bunch of Disks” or JBOD). If you need one large disk, but you have only several smaller disks, you can create a concatenated disk set to use several small disks as one large disk.
    Open Disk Utility, in the Utilities folder in Launchpad.
    Select one of the disks that you want in the set, and then click RAID.
    Click Add (+), and type a name for the RAID set.
    Choose a format from the Format pop-up menu. Usually you’ll choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format.
    Choose Concatenated Disk Set from the RAID Type pop-up menu.
    Drag the disks you want to add to the set to the list on the right.
    Click Create.
    Exerpt from:
    Disk Utility 12.x: Create a RAID set - Apple - Support
    Note that the biggest CON to concatenated RAID configurations is vulnerability to volume failure. If either disk fails, the whole volume fails. If you choose this option, I would highly recommend backing up your music to a cloud service. There are very cheap per GB/storage, and some of the most reputable actually offer unlimited storage:

  • I'm trying to download my Master CS6 onto a new hard drive because my old one crashed and I keep getting a message saying " Cannot write the file" or "I don't have permission to access the requested resource." ? What does this mean?

    Yes- it is a Mac. I went through adobes system requirements and re- downloaded supportive software. The notice seems to happen near the end of the down load with the messages above. I'll look into your suggestion. Thank you- appreciated.

  • I see briefly the content of my Mail Inbox of an IMAP account, then everything disappear and the inbox is empty

    Hi There,
    I have beeen experiencing for the past few days some issues with my Inbox of an IMAP based email account. My inbox is empty.
    When I start mail my Inbox is empty after briefly appearing at the sgtart of the application.
    I installed thunderbird to verify that my IMAP account was not the issue and I can clearly see, receive and send email.
    I can also access that account via a webmail interface and everything seems fine.
    The problem started occuring after getting some error messages from the server indicating that I had gobe over the allocated quota. I cleaned up the account but now mail does present me an empty inbox. Again the account info are valid, nothing has changed.
    The interesting things is that my iphone & ipad that are using the same setup and my inbox is also empty there.
    With mountain lion (clean install), I can see the emails arriving via the notification bar.
    I am at a loss and would appreciate any help if somebody has encountered such a problem.
    Thanks
    Eric

    Try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    hi Robert,
    thanks a lot for your reply.
    here is the uplink port profile config:
    port-profile type ethernet HostUplink
      vmware port-group
      switchport mode trunk
      switchport trunk native vlan 1
      switchport trunk allowed vlan 1-3967,4048-4093
      channel-group auto mode on mac-pinning
      no shutdown
      system vlan 803,832,900-901
      state enabled
    803 is mgmt for both esx and vsm, 900 is control, 901 is packet.
    my NC553i driver version is different from what you suggested, it is 2.102.518.0, any reason why you suggest to use the version you specified?
    I have been trying to contact HP support, to be honest, not saying overall, but from my experience, they are much less helpful then Cisco support, I will keep trying.
    thanks

    Do you use MobileMe and an iPhone? If yes, do this in the following order:
    Mac:
    (1) back up the applications giving you problems
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Turn OFF the applications that are causing problems
    (4) When you turn off on of the applicatios, a red sign "stop syncing" will appear. Press it. A msg will appear "turning off xxx"
    (5) Get out of settings
    (6) Don't do anything for about 20 mins. Don't touch your iPhone or your Mac. (syncing needs time to settle down)
    After 20 minutes...
    Mac:
    (1) Open each application that is giving you problems. Fix errors. Back up.
    (2) Do this for each application
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Slide switch to ON for each app you turned off; there won't be a msg
    (4) Get out of settings
    (5) Via MobileMe, syncing will start again.
    Wait about 20 minutes, again. You should see all in order after that. At least, that was my experience.
