Sent folder not working consistently

Last night, I sent an e-mail containing attachments from my iCloud account using Apple Mail on my Mac. The message got sent and it got saved to my Mac's sent folder. I also sent a few other e-mails, and they also got sent and saved in my sent folder.
Today, when I went to check my sent folder on my iPhone and on iCloud.com, all my sent messages were there except for the one I was looking for, which had the attachments.
I have had this happen several times before - where random sent messages do not get saved to the Sent folder on iCloud.com or to my other devices. Can someone help me resolve this issue? It is really frustrating when I can't find critical e-mails that I have sent because they don't appear in my sent folder.
Thanks,
N

Hi Guys
There is a way to fix this fully.
I wrecked my brains for a while and even switched to Outlook as I managed to get that to work.
Then I hit on the way yo make the Apple Mail application work as well.
The above comments are right you will find different folders in Mail that are used for saving your sent e-mails, and these will be different between what you see on your IMAP web mail when you log in via a browser / iPad / using Mail. (I am connecting to Yahoo mail)
Easy solution. In the Mail application on your MacBook, select the folder called "Sent" in your IMAP / Yahoo mailbox area (I no longer have it there in example below), then got to:
Mailbox > Use This Mailbox For > Sent
....and hey presto that will set it to be the same mailbox as in your web IMAP account / iPad / iPhone
Hopefully this will save you wasting a whole day on this......which is what I did
All the best
Rory

Wifi with stock kernel driver rtl8192ce not working consistently

Hi,
My wifi card RTL8188CE does not work consistently with kernel driver rlt8192ce. The problem that i observe is that after some time ~1hr wifi devices get disconnected and are not able to reconnect. On restarting wifi using systemctl restart hostapd sometimes the system hangs.
Here are the outputs.

Power button not working consistently

Have owned my Macbook Air 13" for almost a year. Over the last few months, I've had some issues with the power button when in standby mode. I think this happened even before I updated to OS X Yosemite. Sometimes when I go to turn my computer on, the button is completely unresponsive. I have to press the button over and over again. Sometimes I hold it down firmly and it turns on, other times it seems to turn on after a light touch. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks-

Post relates to: Tungsten E2
Just an FYI Laura - you can press any of the hard buttons on your Palm and it will turn on. Many of try to avoid using the fragile power button, choosing instead to use a hard button to turn on, and the normal timeout to turn off.

The back button does not work consistently, and rarely works if I open an attachment...any ideas on fixing this?

The back button does not work consistently, and rarely if ever when I open an attachment. Does anyone have a fix for this?
== This happened ==
Not sure how often
== I installed firefox

Same problem here: I never had a problem with the previous versions and now I don't even get my homepage when I click Firefox. Instead, I am getting a blank screen that says "New Tab", only after I click the "Home" symbol I get my Homepage (Yahoo). The browser - back and browser forward button don't work anymore, very annoying. Normally a newer version should be an improvement but it looks like Mozilla really messed up with this "improvement". probably I am going to use Google chrome from now on.

Command-C is not working consistently to.

Command-C is not working consistently for me. In multiple apps, but mostly in Word, I find myself pressing Command-C and then Command-V to paste and what I paste is the LAST thing I copied, not the most recent. I sometimes have to repeat teh sequence several times before it pastes the thing I want it to. Any suggestions? I tried searching for this problem, but didn't find any relevant discussions. Thanks!

Hello eeinna,
I was thinking it might be a good idea to reset the SMC and the PRAM on the computer. Here are the 2 articles for those processes:
About NVRAM and PRAM
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
And
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)

If needed I would also recommend testing the issue in a new user, and following the directions in this article as well based on what you find.

Watch Folder not working in PSE 8

My understanding is that My Pictures folder is automatically under Watch Folder list. However, whenever I create a subfolder within My Pictures in the Explorer and put picures in it, my media browser in PSE 8 does not show me those pictures in that folder. Why? It seems I have to manually add every subfolder within My Pictures to Watch list. Is that true or what am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

Hello,
Does anyone have any suggestions to my question? I did not get any responses.
Everytime I add pictures to any sub folder in the My Pictures, I do not see that in photoshop (PSE 8). I have to import each one o f them manually. Why is my Watch Folder not working?
Thanks

After Mail crash, Sent folder not syncing with Exchange

I was able to successfully configure Mail on SN to work with Exchange 2007. After about two days of trouble free operation, my Mail client crashed. After that it has stopped syncing the Sent folder with Exchange. I have tried reboot of my MacBook Pro and restarts on the Exchange server but with no success. Mail that is sent from SN as well as from other clients (such as Outlook or Outlook Web Access) appears in the Sent folder on Exchange but none of these emails are now appearing in the Sent Mailbox in Mail on SN. However, the messages that were sent before the crash are synced and available in the Mail on SN. Appreciate any suggestions or help.

I'm frankly always shocked at the lack of quality. I somehow insist on believing in Apple, which consistently doesn't appear to deserve it. Been using MobileMe to sync my dock between 3 Macs. An iMac at home, one at the office, and a MacBook Pro on the go.
Now, my notepad refuses to stay in the dock, despite me following all the advice I could find on this specific issue from Apple and forums. MobileMe Sync items are also high up my list of items I very much like to have, but of course, they don't work well. I thought Snow Leopard was to be an extremely high quality release. That was the whole point of this release. Nothing but fixing all the broken things that exist.
So much for quality. They had a whole 18 months not to add features, but just to fix all that is broken. And this is the result. Things that are highlighted as awesome features that fall short of functioning properly. Who tests this stuff, two guys in a basement?

Digial Filing, Scan to Network Folder not working on new Asus Windows 8.1 laptop

I've having difficulty setting up Digital Filing, Scan to Network Folder on my new Asus Windows 8.1 laptop. I'm using a HP Officejet Pro 8500 A909g Series.
It seems to setup correctly with no errors. However, all scans end up with a zero file size PDF. Trying to open them gives the error: “Adobe reader could not open 'scan.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).
I've previously had no problem setting up network folders to scan to on three other computers, all of which were running Windows 7, not 8.1. Digital Filling continues to work correctly on each of these older computers, but try as I might, I'm unable to get this feature to work with my new Windows 8.1 laptop. I've tried with both the “Solution Center” software and the embedded web access.
I've compared all the setting I could think of to the previous Network Folders that work and cannot find any differences.
The workaround, scanning from my laptop using the Solution Center software (rather from the printer console using digital filing, scan to network folder) works perfectly. As far as I can tell, all other features are working.

The STUDIO is an older laptop running Windows 7. Scanning to network folders works perfectly as long as the folder chosen is in the \Users\Public folder.
I do not know nor have not needed the Windows password on this laptop. It's been years since I set up this laptop; I don't know if it even has a password.
The ASUS is a new laptop running Windows 8.1. So far, I have been unable to scan to a network folder; all the resulting PDFs are zero bytes.
The network folders are all in Network Path: \\ASUS\Users\Public; if I try to create them outside this folder, I'm unable to even finish setting up the network scan.
I DO know the Windows username and password for this new laptop.
Username: [email protected]
Password: Gpaork3edrecnlau
I've compared the properties on the folders involved on the two laptops by right-clicking them. So far as I can tell, everything is set exactly the same on both computers.
Below are my experiments – the first three on my older Windows 7 laptop all work perfectly. All the rest on my new Windows 8.1 computer do not work.

Clickpad Right Click not Working Consistantly

I just purchased an HP laptop with a Clickpad and reviewed your documentation for what areas on the pad to use for clicking however I can't seem to get a consistent right click even when I click in the area indicated by the diagram. I can be almost in the bottom right corner of the pad's surface and still get a left click response.
Is there a trick to it I am missing or do I have a dud?

Hello Kyraoko,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the right-clicking action on the touchpad, of your notebook, is not working properly. It is likely a hardware issue, to be honest. However, please try the following steps before assuming anything:
1. Tap the upper-left corner of the touchpad a couple of times to turn it off, then turn it on. This is considered resetting the touchpad.
2. Performing a Hard Reset or Forced Reset is the next step. A hard reset clears driver instructions, recent configurations, etc. This forces the hardware to reread all instructions from the drivers and software stored within Windows.
3. Update the mouse/touchpad driver. These instructions will guide you along the right path:
a. Go to the HP Drivers and Downloads webpage. Enter your computer model number and then click Go .
b. Select your computer model from the list of results.
c. Select your operating system from the drop down menu and then click Next.
d. Scroll down to select the driver category "Driver - Keyboard, Mouse and Input Devices".
e. Click the Download button next to the appropriate TouchPad or ClickPad driver. The file downloads to your Downloads folder.
f. Open your Downloads folder and double-click to install the latest driver. Follow on-screen instructions to complete the installation.
Source: Using and Troubleshooting the TouchPad or ClickPad (Windows 8)
4. If that doesn't work, we will have to try a more direct approach of reinstalling the mouse driver:
a) Go into Device Manager, then "Mice and other pointing devices".
b) Right-click on the touchpad driver, and select "Uninstall".
c) Restart the computer. This will force a new driver to be written based on the detected hardware.
5. Try connecting a USB mouse to the computer. Test it to see whether or not it is working properly.
If those steps do not help, then I would call HP phone support so they can physically address the hardware of the touchpad. You can utilize this website to learn how to contact HP appropriately, based on your region: Contact HP Worldwide
Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns. Thanks for posting, and have a great day!

Update to Thunderbird 31.3.0 stopped Save in Sent folder from working

Yesterday, 31.3.0 was auto installed on my system.
All of the sudden, none of my outgoing emails are saved in the Sent folder, as they have been for years.
I get the message "There was an error saving message to Sent, retry?", and additional attempts also do not work.

''duggabe [[#answer-664559|said]]''
<blockquote>
There is an add-on to TB which allows import and export of emails in various formats to a separate storage medium (external disk, thumb drive, etc.).
The instructions on how to download and install it can be found at http://barryduggan.info/exportMail.php
</blockquote>
I appreciate the information. I installed the add-on, but when I use it, no folders are moved. I have a feeling I need to set something in the add-on, but don't know what to change, as I'm not that familiar with it. Can you suggest some tips? Thank you!

Media Folder not working

k, i'm at a loss on this one.
from what i have read the media folder that you designate is where itunes will store and catalog all your music/video etc. c:\...\media folder\ then it will have music and video and podcast etc.
i want it to be C:\docs\ to my music/video/podcasts etc.. if i set my docs folder to be my media folder it just starts cataloging my artists, no \music\artists.
if i make my media folder c:\docs\music, when i import a cd it starts cataloging all my music in c:\doc\music\music\ artists... from what i gather itunes is cataloging correctly here. but when i try to eliminate the music\music by making my media folder just docs, it is not working correctly.
sorry if this is kinda long winded and confusing, but i am really frustrated at such a simple thing not working correctly.

finally after 3 hours of mucking around i found it. although i had itunes set to organize my music automatically. the fix was telling it to re-organize it... stupid itunes...

Items from Gmail Sent folder not imported to Apple Mail during IMAP setup

Hi,
I just set up IMAP for my Gmail account. Now, although my Inbox folder got copied over to Apple Mail, the Sent folder did not.
Anyone know how I can copy this over too? Its just that I have lots of flagged items that I occasionally reference from the Sent folder.
Thanks.

I'm presuming you have webmail access? In the webmail environment, can you move those messages into another folder or into the inbox itself, then connect in the Mac Mail.app environment, the mailboxes/folders will synchronize, then drag-and-drop them into the Sent folder? And make sure that in Mail's Prefs, you have the "Store Sent Mail on server" checkbox checked?

Sidebar folder not working

We have the following setup :
- Lion Server (up to date)
- MacBook Air Lion uptodate
In the finder we connect to the server from Shared, this works fine.
When i want to add a folder to my sidebar that is inside my share it first workes fine, but when i disconnect the server and then connect tru one of te folders, most of the time the first folder i selct works, but other folders that are on the same share are not working anymore. I hace to remove the and add the again to the sidebar.
Very frustrating.

I wanted to know how to remover folders that were not smart folders. Your reply to Isjessop on May 10
provided the right answer. Thanks pal.

Web Gallery, previous/ next not working consistently

First time I've seen this: next and previously are not working good. Some work in the gallery, some don't.
Reboot Firefox, some different ones work, some dont. It's worrisome. I'm sending this to people- any tips?

.Mac email can be set up two different ways on the iPhone. For "Send to Web Gallery" button to appear when clicking on the action button while viewing a photo, you must have your .Mac email set up as IMAP. This is the default setup for a .Mac email account.
If you take the time to manually set up your .Mac email as POP, then you will not have the "Send to Web Gallery" option and you will be unable to successfully email into your web gallery even if all else is set up correctly.
To check to see how you have .Mac email set up on your iPhone, go to the Home Screen, tap Settings, tap Mail, tap your .Mac account name, tap Advanced, move down on the page, and make sure you see "IMAP Path Prefix" setting (it can be blank and does not need to be changed). If the "IMAP Path Prefix" is there, then you do indeed have your .Mac email set up as IMAP on your iPhone.
If you do have it set up as a POP account, you can delete that mail account by selecting the red Delete Account button when viewing your email account as listed in Settings.
To add your .Mac email account as an IMAP account, from the Home Screen, tap Settings, tap Mail, tap Add Account..., tap .Mac, and fill out the fields with your information, tap Save and it will verify access to your .Mac email account.

Connecting projectors via VGA to MBA 2012 not working consistently?

I am a trainer working around uk and Europe. I keep finding displays that will not work with my MBA. What happened to plug and play?....

I have used macs for 10 years
Okay, so have I, and I keep having surprises and keep learning. So what are you trying to say?
Just will not show up on projected screen despite me changing settings,detecting display,restarting etc
I sometimes find defect cables and connectors on site, I'm sure you spot those as well. Who to blame. Other than that, I've always got some signal onto the screen, even if not pretty colors, ideal contrast and brightness, or perfectly scaled. Or simply at a lower resolution and/or refresh rate than what I've been wishing for.
With OS X's UI regarding external displays basically not having changed since 10.4, we sure have no trouble with handling our machines, and while our Windows friends are still trying to remember where all to press and click, I'm up and running or having a coffee.
Interfaces have changed, but the number of adapters has grown accordingly, and projectors and displays have gotten more "receptive" as well. So, not much in the way here, either.
The gear that is a royal pain in-you-know-where to work with now, has been the same before... all the time...
What else - any more specific description, e.g. a typical showcase you could tell us of? Thanks.
