Removing old emails

After updating to OS7, I now have a mailbox full of old emails, some that were deleted years ago. I used to be able to limit the mailbox size to 50 emails. Is that option still available? If so, where is it? Apple really needs to address this question.

Ten days isn't an option I'm familiar with; perhaps it's a new option in Lion? Prior OS's had choices like one day, week, month, etc.
If not being apparently set in your email client, it's possibly been set or is set by default at the server level. To check and change that you'll have to access it directly, usually by logging into that domain directly.

    Welcome to the Apple community Pavinee Supajilt.
    If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple ID.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device.
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • How do you remove old email address in Mail?

  • Need to remove old email account

    An old gmail account shows up on my Torch 9800 in Setup-->Email Accounts as an Enterprise Account. It also appears as an Enterprise Activation icon on my Torch screen. Finally, it appears on Contacts-->Select Contact List. This gmail account was once on my Torch as an Internet Mail Account, but I deleted the account (from gmail and from the Torch). It no longer exists as far as Google is concerned. It never was and never should never have been an Enterprise Account, and I don't know how it became one. How can I completely wipe this gmail account from my Torch? Thanks in advance.

    If you go to your phone's browser and follow www.blackberry.com/integrate , you should be able to deal with it from there.
    I hope that helps you. 
    EDIT:  OK, apparently that's good for adding an account but not for deleting one.  If you contact your carrier, they can either help you with it or can grant you access to their self-serve BIS site from where you can take care of your email account(s).
    There.  I hope THAT helps you.

  • Mail app not removing old email accounts

    Hi,
    I have mail accounts that I made in the internet accounts section of the system prefrences and then deleted not disapearing from my Mail App. they were deleted due to duplication of a google mail account and a few fails at getting an outlook account to work.
    They are NOT now in the interenet accounts, how ever do show up in mail. If you go to the mail prefrences and try and remove them it sends you back to the internet accounts in the system prefrences where theyhave already been deleted. A second Quirk is that I thought I could just disable the unwanted google account howver when I do it disables the duplicae too.
    How can I get mail to behave and remove the ghost accounts? this has partly  happed as I wanted all my macs to use the same accounts over Icloud so when I turned it on, it doubled up accounts on my main computer, I then removed the non Icloud shared accounts,
    Thanks for the help

    If you search on this forum and compare popular web hosting providers like Bluehost, Hostgator and Godaddy you will see many users have such problems with their email apps. First it seems your problem comes from your cellphone. But it is surprising that I had the same problem when I had a web and email hosting account with Godaddy and their customer service couldn't solve my problem and finally I moved my email hosting account to Bluehost and the problem automatically was solved, without any action!
    So I recommend to you and any other users with similar problems to change your email hosting provider. Now that you are unhappy with Godaddy I recommend to try http://www.bluehost.com or http://www.hostgator.com companies.
    I have the S3 and don't have any problem with syncing my Hostgator email accounts. So If I were you first I'd try Hostgator.

  • TS2446 Apps asking for old email account password I have not used in years

    Please tell me how to remove old email accounts that are connected to my apps? It is asking for yahoo password that I have not used in years. I need to delete yahoo account linked to apple account

    It's doing that because these apps were originally purchased with that Apple ID.  Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them.  The only way to stop this would be to delete these apps from your phone and your iTunes library, then repurchase them with your current ID.

  • HT5361 I want to permanently remove years old emails from my IMac Mountain Lion system.  How can I do this by year instead of laboriously doing it one message at a time?

    I want to permanently remove years old emails from my IMac Mountain Lion system.  How can I do so by year rather than slowly removing one message at a time?  Many thanks.

    Another option is to create a smart mailbox that includes emails with date received before a desired date.
    Then, select one message in the Smart Mailbox and cmd-A to select all. Then delete.

    Hello farahani hairon nizar,
    If your Apple ID was changed from your old account, you may have to change it back to your old account to be able to sign out and then change it back after that is done. Take a look at the article below for more information.

    Hello tcnolen1,
    It sounds like you are trying to change the Apple ID logged into the iTunes & App Stores on your iPhone.  Use these steps:
    Changing your Apple ID account
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
    Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.

  • How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?

    How to remove the old email address that was hacked from my iCloud account when iCloud won't let me?
    Pretty much the the email that I used (but didn't verify) to create my iCloud account was hacked and now I can't remove it from my iCloud account due to the iCloud password also being changed by the same person and the fact I had "Find my iPhone" app on my phone also??? I had to change my iTunes email as well but that was far easier so yeah :S.
    Please help. I live in NZ, out in the country, so reception is rare and so is getting into the nearest town that has an Apple Store.
    Thanks

    If you truly change your existing Apple ID's email address to a new email address, follow these instructions: iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    If you created a whole new Apple Account because you couldn't access the old one after being hacked, you will need to contact the Apple Account Security Team. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

    If you have any apps that were acquired with the old ID they will always be tied to that ID. Delete them and reacquire them with the new ID that you have in Settings > iTunes and App Store
