Saving Messages in my Folders

Most of my email is for business, and I need to save everything. I've just started using Mail to read my mail from two sources, and I see I can 'Save As' for the incoming mail.
But how do I save an email I have just written? Save As is not available.

Thanks for your reply, Peter. I have probably 50 subject folders for my emails so I can refer to them more easily. Some are business, some are for a community collaborative I chair and other activities, like Therapy Dogs.
If I'm collecting opinions on an idea, they all go in one folder and are easy to refer to and tabulate. I've been doing this for the 24 years I've been using email! It's become a habit . . . and I do refer to the emails a lot!

Recent automatic update rearranged my folders of saved messages; I can't find them.

Had an extensive series of saved messages labeled according to type of content or in some cases the senders name; ie AAA,ATT, etc. After update on 3-14-14 these subfolders no longer appear in my list of archieved messages. I am unable to locate them using search function.

Try View menu (ALt+V) > folders > all
Have the folders been collapsed? is there a triangle beside the icon for their parent folder? What happens if you double click the parent folder?

I updated my phones software yesterday upon request and now i can no longer see old or saved messages in my inbox. I can see the n ew ones when they arrive, and this problem is restricted only to the inbox as i can see messages in the junk and sent folders fine.
Hope someone can help!

Try a reset of the device by pressing and holding the home and power button for 15-20 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

Mail/AOL Mail Saved Message Nightmare

I set my boss up to use AOL's imap server to send and receive email through osx's mail application. He dragged all of his important messages to the saved folder. What happened next was strange. Although the folder is on the mac itself, the messages uploaded to somewhere, leaving the folder empty. I went on his regular account and checked the saved messages box and it was empty. AOL has no idea where they went if they are not in the saved folder on their ACS. I checked the computer itself and could not locate any of the mails. Has anyone else ran into this problem?
G4Laptop Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Assorted tidbits that may or may not be of use to those following this thread:
1. As of August 5, I was still able to save whatever emails I wanted to select from any Mail mailbox to the AOL "Saved" mailbox with no errors or disappearance problems of any kind whatsoever.
2. As of approximately one month ago, I could with Mail.app also move any email I wanted from the AOL IMAP inbox to the AOL "Spam" mailbox. This is what some official AOL help documents indicate is the equivalent to using the AOL client app "Report Spam" button, so I assume this is, or at least was previously, officially supported with IMAP access to AOL email as the approved way to report spam when not using AOL client or web mail access.
2.a. At some point in the last ten days or so, I noticed this 'report spam' equivalent was not working properly with Mail.app. I don't know the exact date this started happening since I don't often have to use the feature, but what I do know is that as of ~ July 28, I started getting error messages similar to the ones we now see for moving messages to "Saved." So far, the error messages are all that happens with this -- IOW, there is no disappearance problem, only a refusal to accept any email into the "Spam" server folder via Mail.app.
3. In Mail.app, using the menu "Copy to..." option for attempts to move messages into the affected AOL-based folders works very much the same as with drag & drop, except the existing copy is never deleted from the source mailbox, so I suggest this is a better way to test for the problem than by risking any messages you might want to save.
3.a. Using the copy option may initially look like it succeeds, even when it doesn't. In my case, messages copied to "Saved" sometimes did appear there in Mail's view even after opening the "Saved" mailbox view, which I assume from Mail's Activity window does cause some small amount of syncing. However, within 10 seconds to about a minute, the newly copied message still disappears, which I assume is due to some server-side problem a 'full' sync shows.
4. Until AOL sorts out all the details of its "new" incarnation, It is probably best not to count on saving anything to its servers, even with the web mail interface.

Saved Messages Folder

Hello!
I am running Nokia PC Suite version 6.80.21 with my Nokia 6111. The phone needs sending away to be mended. So I am trying to back up everything to the PC.
Contacts etc will synch fine. The problem is my "saved message" folders, of which there are several. They are not coming up on the PC at all. I am quite sentimental and do not wish to lose them.
I thought of putting them back in the inbox on the phone. There isn't the option. They can only be moved to other saved message folders.
What else can I try? I must have found a way to do this before, as many of the messages I am trying to preserve are older than the phone I currently have. Would an older version of PC Suite handle what I am trying to do?

That may be tricky, but you should run a full backup with PC Suite, not only try to synchronise the messages.
It maybe that all the saved folders will be included in the backup and then they can be restored back again when phone comes back from mending.
So run the backup (try to move as much as possible of the images etc. big fles you may have in your phone manually with File Manager to your PC so that the backup file size would be minimal.
Then when you have run the backup, locate the backup file from your PC, open it with notepad and try to view are your saved messages included in the backup (.nbf) file.
Also, you can try to stress at the service place that they must preserve all the phone data, so maybe they run the backup and update phone and restore it.

Mac Mail - Saved Messages Recovery

In my Mac Mail Saved Messages, their were two folders labeled Saved Messages, with different content in each. I deleted one of them and both disappeared. How do I recover them? And then, how do I delete one of them?

Thanks for a very quick reply - and this is how this mailbox is set up.
I have also had a bit of help and advice from a knowlegable friend and he thinks the source of the deletions may be that the account is an IMAP account on the new machine and my iphone but a POP3 accont on my old machine. I have turned off the old machine to see if this changes the behaviours on the other machines.
This is a very good start.

Restoring Saved Messages on 6280 using Nokia PC Su...

Before getting the firmware upgraded on my 6280 to v3.7 I backed up my phone. However, after peforming the restore it hasn't restored the folders i had created in the Saved Messages folder and I have lost some important text messages. Trying to Add a New Folder on v3.7 doesn't work either. Q. How can I recover the text messages stored under additional folders created in the SAVED MESSAGES folder, assuming they were backed up in the first place?
THANKS

Hi
Have you installed the pc suite support appplication for SMS and MMS messaging?
If not go to www.nokia.com/pcs and search for updates.

How to move messages in "Saved Messages" and "My F...

I've just upgraded my phone from 6280 to N73 Music Edition.
To transfer all transferrable data from 6280 to N73, I used PC Suite 6.84.10.4 to backup 6280 and restore it on N73.
Contacts, calendar, bookmarks, messages in the Inbox/Outbox/Draft/Sent Items are all transferred well into N73. However, it's not transferring my messages in 6280's Saved Messages and its user-created folders!
On the 6280 phone itself, I tried to move messages into Inbox but it doesn't work. 6280 only allows moving of messages in the user folders to other folders or the Saved Messages folder.
I have lots of messages stored in my 6280's Saved Messages and folders. How can I transfer them all to my new N73 phone? Would appreciate help.
Thanks

i would try to use "messages" in the pc suite (or what the yellow envelope is called in english).
there you can mark all messages in a folder and copy them to your pc. on the new phone vice-versa.
I've just tried it out. I can select all messages from the Archives or My Folders of 6280 using PC Suite and drag them into a PC folder. This works. However, when I tried to select all messages from the PC folder and drag into Inbox of N73, the messages are not copied.
So, this method doesn't seem to work

OVI deleted saved messages 6300

Ok, my problem is simple. I updated the firmware of my 6300 using OVI suite.
I allowed it to do a full backup, and restore and everything seemed great.
hHowever, all my saved messages are gone All the folders and files and everything. Tis is totally f@~%ed (excuse my language) as I need the saved messages, that is why they are SAVED!!!
How can I get them back on my phone and in the original folders? A simnple option would be great...
I have backup of my phone on the computer, however when I try to sync the messages with my phone it doesnt copy them across. Basically the messages are on my comp and NOT in my phone where they should be.
Dirty old firmware updates, should've left the phone alone methinks...
Any help would be much appreciated thank you

Good to know.. you managed to sort out most of the issues... As you mention.. the Tone came with the phone..means it was a part of the firmware and not with the upgrade version of it... thats why you do not get it.. Unless someone is able to send it to you ..or you find it somewhere to download from thru' Google, it seems you will not get it back...

How can I delete saved messages from my iphone 5s to be able to update it?

I have needed to update my Iphone 5s from the past 2 updates but it says that I have 4.2 GB of saved messages. I don't know where to go to delete them. I delete regular messages from my phone daily so I'm not sure what is being saved and where.
Thanks!

You would need to set up your mail account as a POP account instead of IMAP.
I'm not sure if Hotmail/msn offers that -

HT4528 How do you delete 'SAVED MESSAGES' on iPhone 5s

How do you delete 'SAVED MESSAGES' on iPhone 5s? It's taking up about 10GB of 32 GB capacity.

After much searching on the web and reading many (sometimes amusing) posts on this topic here is what I have found.
In Settings>General>Usage my saved mesages were using 3.2Gb and no apparently immediate way of deleting them.
However as the good book says "seek and ye shall find".
SO this is where I went:
Settings>iCloud>Account> then scroll down to ADVANCED and select Mail; again scroll down to the bottom and select Advanced and yet again scroll to the bottom (well at least to DELETED MESSAGES) and tap on the line called Remove.
Here at last you will find a setting that enables you to select the period after which iOS will remove your deleted messages.
The shortest period is one day so you will haev to wait 24 hours to finally have that memory back but it should work and is a nice feature in iOS although it is well burried!!

I cannot see my Hotmail saved messages on my iPad 4. I do not have this problem on my iPad 2. All settings look identical.

I cannot see my Hotmail saved messages onmy iPad 4. I do not have this problem on my iPad 2. The settings appear identical.Any suggestions to cure the problem? Thank you.

My iPad 2 does exactly the same thing. But I just have to go on to my wifi options and you can either forget this network and then press it again or you can turn wifi off and on again and press that wifi.
Kind regards,

I have cleared all apps from my ipad. How do yo get rid of calendars and delete saved messages which is taking all mt storagw

I have cleared all apps but still not able to download a rented movie. The only spot where I have data stored is in saved messages andd calendars. Cannot find the saved messages and cannot delete calendars. Any other suggestions because this was a very stupid purchase if you only have enough storage for the standard apps.

Go to: Settings>General>Usage>and see what is eating up all of your memory. After you find what is eating up most of your memory just delete it thru:Settings>General>Usage. I would not think your calendars and messages would take up all of your memory.
Cheers,
Alec

I am a bit ignorant when it comes to my iphone 4. Can somone help me delete saved text messages? I have tried to delete them one by one in my messages, but it still says that I have 2.3 saved messages. I just want to free up space on my phone.

Dearest Ones in the Apple Tech World,
I need to free up space in my storage, and I can do that if I can figure out how to delete my saved text messages. Anyone out there know how in the world I can accomplish this?
I have tried to delete them one by one, but it still says that I have 2.3 GB of saved messages!
I am not the saviest when it comes to operating this phone. Any help would be appreciated!
THANKS SO MUCH!

There's no way to delete all message threads at one go. You can however do one contact thread at a time.
In Messages app where you see a list of messages from different contacts, tap Edit (top left), tap the red (on the left), then tap the red Delete button on the right.
