Showing two copies each email?

Out of the blue on my Macbook Pro I am getting two copies of each email. Things OK on iMac and iPhone. Any ideas as to why. Thanks.

Well I don't really have any more suggestions I am afraid. Googling "duplicate email in mac mail" comes up with quite a few hits which may suggest something to you.
Are you IMAP or POP? MobileMe? Is webmail duplicating too? Not sure how the answers lead to a solution but might do.
You could try deleting ~user/Library/Mail/Envelope index which forces all messages to be reindexed. This worked for someone in this thread, as did trashing the pref file for someone.

  • After restore I receive two copies of emails

    I've noticed the same issue. But I have duplicate calendar items when I try to sync a large email account. I hope someone your question gets answered, because I would like to know the answer as well.

  • I have a new mac and was in launch pad and deleted imovie by accident because it was showing two copies. I have not emptied my trash, but imovie is not in the trash nor is it anywhere when I search the computer for it. What happened? Where is it?

    I just got a new macbook pro. I was in launchpad and there were two imovie icons so I clicked on one and deleted it.
    It seems as though imovie is missing from my computer completely now. I have not emptied the trash, but it is not in there.
    Where has my imovie gone and how do I get it back? I don't understand why it isn't in the trash or anywhere on my computer.
    Please help

    Hi wjosten,
    Yes, I have checked the app folder and there is no imovie in there, there is also nothing in the trash.
    I have also checked the HD for imovie and it seems as though it's just gone?
    Thanks for your help, if you have any other suggestions I would really appreciate them.

  • Why am I'm getting two copies of each email?

    I'm trying to resolve a problem with backups cause by a corrupt SharePoint database on my SBS 2011 Server. I mention that to let you know I've been mucking around inside SBS2011 Standard.  I haven't touched my Windows 8.1 Pro x64 with Outlook 2013
    x64 client machine. 
    Although I don't recall touching Exchange or Outlook, this morning, outlook 2013 x64  is showing two copies of each incoming email. 
    First there's a container message titled Microsoft Outlook <[email protected]>; on behalf of;
    [email protected]  with the real message as an attachment.  
    Then the real message it self is delivered titled
    [email protected]   I am list just one occurrence as an example. 
    - Michael Faklis

    Hi,
    When did you encounter this issue, after the backup problem?
    Did you mean that the copied email is sent from
    [email protected]? Is this a system E-mail?
    Please make sure that you have installed all the latest updates on the server.
    Best regards,
    Susie

  • Creative Cloud installed two copies of apps (Illustrator, etc.)

    Hi...
    I just installed Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop onto a new laptop (Win 7, 64 bit). When I go to my programs list, it shows two copies of each:
    Adobe Illustrator CC
    Adobe Illustrator CC (64 bit)
    Adobe InDesign CC
    Adobe InDesign CC (64 bit)
    etc.
    Why is it showing two versions? Which should I use? Should I delete one? This didn't happen on my old laptop (32-bit, Win 7).
    Thanks!

    Thanks for explaining that. ....I have a question as well. I have win 7 ...64 bit laptop  .
    I also have the full Adobe Creative Cloud membership... CC and  CC 64 bit are both loaded on all my adobe apps on my laptop .
    I have used  the CC and CC 64 bit versions.
    But some  of the graphics i created in CC will not open in CC 64 bit and vice- versa... which one should I be using?
    CC Or CC 64 bit?-
    Thanks in advance to whomever replies.

  • Have two copies of flash player in add-ons file --- latest and old one --- how to get rid of old one....

    In reviewing and updating add-on using add-on manager the manager screen shows two copies of adobe flash player --- 11.9 latest version and and old version 9.0....... How do i get rid of the 9.0 entry. The plug in for 9.0 doesn't show up in my control panel for installed programs.
    Thanks.
    Also of what value is the java deployment tool kit.

    (1) You should be able to uncover the location of the other plugin from the '''about:plugins''' page (type or page about:plugins into the address bar and press Enter).
    (2) If it ''doesn't'' show there for some reason, on 32-bit Windows, Firefox generally finds the Flash Player plugin using registry entries that point into the Windows folder:
    C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
    The plugin files have the name following the pattern npswf...dll and the most recent should have a name similar to NPSWF32_11_9_900_152.dll. Can you find the old one there and delete it?
    (3) If the obsolete DLL file is not located there, either, it may have been dropped into the Firefox program folder. On 32-bit Windows, you could check for it here:
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Plugins
    C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\browser\plugins
    (4) Still not found? In that case, you might need to look into the Windows registry for the information.

  • I downloaded some music but there's two copies of each song showing up on the phone but not on itunes or anywhere else.

    I recently downloaded songs off of itunes on my computer. usually i don't do this because i think its a pain in the *** to connect my iphone to the computer but since i had recently updated it with icloud and the new ios software i figured i could do it just this once. well anyways i downloaded some songs on the PC i have and everything was going well up until i was about to connect the iphone to sync the songs. for some reason i remembered about icloud and i looked up the songs on my phone and sure enough there they were i clicked on them to see if they would play but they wouldn't so i just connected the phone to the computer after everything had synced i found that there was now two copies of the each song i had just bought.  at first none of the songs would play but then i connected my phone to wifi and i think this is when the icloud came to into work because now one song will play and the other wont. it annoys me because its not showing whether i double bought the songs or if its some kind of stupid glitch. i dont think i double bought them though because theres no double copies showing up on itunes. i just want to know how to fix this because its annoying to have two copies of the song when one doesnt even play. could anyone please help?

    Apple does not respond to these forums but users do.  You can sync both devices to the same computer using the same itunes account.  After initial setup you can pick and choose what apps you want on your devices.  I have an iphone, ipod touch and ipad that I sync to the same computer and account.  I have different apps, music, photos, etc on each.  The key is one computer, one itunes account and you will be fine.

  • TS3276 There are two User accounts on my iMac. The two Users have seperate email accounts.  Both email Mailboxes show up in each Account.  If I Delete Mailbox from in User account, does it delete the Mailbox from the other User account at the same time?

    There are 2 Users on my iMac.  Each User has their own email account.  Both account Mailboxes show up in each User's account.  If I delete a Mailbox in one account, does it delete the same Mailbox in the other Account? 

    If you click the - sign in Mail preferences, it will delete that mail account. If you just delete the Mailbox, that will just delete the Mailbox.
    Each user can put their own email account information in Mail when logged into their User Account.
    If you don't want the other user's mail account to show up in your mail application, then make sure the other user's messages are available to them when they are logged into their account and delete the other user account from Mail in your User Account. The other user can do the same when logged into their user account. Any messages stored in one locally will have to be transfered to the other's user account if it's not saved in their user login.
    In addition, instead of deleting the account at first, highlight the account and open the Advanced Tab and disable the account. That email account will dissappear from Mail. Once you decide that you don't want the account, you can delete it. If you need to get back to it to transfer messages, just re enable it.

  • I sent some emails from one of my email accounts and now it shows that these emails have been simultaneously sent from two of my email accounts

    I sent a few emails from one of my accounts that are set up in my Thunderbird. Now I see that they have been sent from two of my accounts, simultaneously. It shows them in both Sent folders and with the respective email address as sender.
    Those email accounts have been set up in my Thunderbird for a long time now and have been working correctly until now.
    How can I prevent this from happening again? I don't want to send people messages from two different emails at the same time.
    I'd appreciate any help on this.
    Thanks,
    Borislav

    In my case, TB is sending a copy of all my sent mail to the account that is associated with the smtp server. I have four accounts that I check via TB and the sent mail is being kept in the original folder and also in the sent folder of the account to which the smtp server is connected. If I change the smtp server from one gmail account to another, the sent mail follows. I then have two copies of the sent email, one in the original folder and one in the smtp server account's sent folder. I only want the one in the original folder. How do I stop the sent email from also being saved in the smtp account sent folder?

  • I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

    If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
    Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
    IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
    Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.

  • How do I stop two copies of Incoming emails appearing in my inbox

    Quite suddenly, this morning two copies of most Incoming emails have started to appear in my inbox

    presetly you are using POP from gmail(Which is default), use IMAP settings(visit google website for configuration) and then you will not see your sent mails in INBOX.

  • Good morning! i'd like to know why when I write an email in Mail, it creates numerous copies each second which fill the trash box. My email is set up with IMAP and is a gmail account. Thanks

    Open Mail preferences and select Accounts then MailBox Behavior. You probably need to unclick the safe draft to server.

  • How do I fix syncing issues between my iTouch and iTunes? My iTouch shows I have two copies of one song but on iTunes it shows I have one copy. I only purchased one copy too so where did the second copy come from?

    Yesterday I purchased a few albums and CDs from iTunes to my iTouch. After charging my iTouch, I noticed some of the songs weren't there. So I checked my iTunes and they were still downloading so I synced them up to each other. For the 1st hour, there was only one copy of the song. Later on, when I hooked up my iTouch to see if my info corresponded to iTunes, I saw that there was additional copies of the same song on a few albums and some copies of individual songs. I didn't purchase them twice either. Now I have two copies on my iTouch but not my iTunes so I can't delete the additional copy.

    Right now, I tried deleting all of the music and resyncing it from my iTunes directly to my iTouch. Hopefully this will solve the problem.

    My Photoshop Elements 12 is downloading two copies of each photo and there is no Automatically Stack RAW and JPEG Option in the Download Box.

    Anwesha,
    Yes.
    I have clicked on it, selected “Stack” and all is now fine, with both versions of the photo readable by “unstacking”, using the side arrows !!
    Thanks for that.

  • Why do my Finder sidebar color tags contain two copies of each file?

    Clicking on a color tag category in the Finder sidebar I find I have two copies of each tagged file. This is a whole new phenomenon to me as I use the new Mavericks tagging system. If I Trash one of the two copies it returns the next time I open Finder. This is not only unnecessary clutter, but makes me concerned about which one is the "right" one to use.
    Why is this happening, or what am I doing wrong to cause this?

    What kind of a Backup is it?
    I have a Time Machine backup connected all the time, but don't see those things.
    If it is just a "clone" of your internal, then Finder will display the Tags for all attached devices.
    If that is the case, I think you might want to provide feedback to Apple and suggest they create a "Privacy List" like in Spotlight to disable looking up Tags on the things in the "Privacy List."

    Armed with your good advice, I now see the duplicate "cloned" files come from my backup hard drive, which I always have mounted on my desktop. I use that to back up my files periodically using SuperDuper.
    Good suggestion about pointing this out to Apple. I suppose I could also unmount my backup hard drive, and remount it only when doing backups, to avoid being bothered by these duplicate files.
    Thanks for your thoughtful comments.
