Simple macro app for Macintosh to just click the 'Delete' button?

Here's a problem I can't seem to figure out.  We use Microsoft Exchange at work, and once or twice a year I get a message that my mail account is almost full.  But deleting old emails is an extremely tedious process; I have to do them either one at a time or in batches of about 15, either of which takes too much time. I do them from the Exchange web app since I use the Mac Mail client.
So I'm looking for a simple way of automating my mouse clicking the "Delete" about 1,000 times in a row.  Something really simple... is there anything built in to the system software that will do this? Or a really SIMPLE and cheap/free app or utility that will do this? (I'd appreciate limiting any answers to solving this immediate problem.. I've been all over the Exchange setting & rules with our system email admin and nothing seems to work.)
Thanks in advance.

You could
1. Copy/Paste the completed 25-step WMD action fifty times into the same workflow:
-- Watch Me Do
-- Watch Me Do
-- Watch Me Do
etc.
OR, better
2. Add a loop action -->
-- Watch Me Do
-- Loop
----  Loop automatically
------ Stop after --50-- times

  • How does this happen: The picture of recent apps you get when double clicking the home button showed in Settings-Wifi that I had been connected to a network I have not been near for two months. Its not a recent "image" of Settings-Wifi. Can anyone explain

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

  • I cannot delete the open apps as earlier after double clicking the start button

    I cannot delete the open apps as earlier after double clicking the start button after the new update

    Force close apps
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen

  • Hi, I would like to know how can I recover a document from pages that I didn't save anytime and instead of clicking the button save I clicked the delete button at the end. Is there any way to recover it?

    Hi, I would like to know how can I recover a document from pages that I didn't save anytime and instead of saving the doc I clicked the delete button. Is there any way to recover it?

    Regardless of application, the first step that I take is to save and name the current document — even if it has no content yet. With Pages, this good habit enables autosave. As you add content, your document revision history is restorable via the File Revert To menu. The delete key has the same document foreboding as only teaching a pet raven to speak "Nevermore."

  • After the update I don't know how to close running apps? I recall double clicking the main button then hold one app until they begin a jiggling motion. But that no longer works.

    How do close running apps?

    You still double tap the home button and the apps are lined up across the screen. Swipe up on the app preview thumbnail - drag it up off of the screen - and that will close the app.

  • What is that list of apps I see after double-clicking the home button?

    When you double tap the home button on my ipod touch 4th gen it comes up with a list of apps that have been open! Are they still on? If they are does it waste your battery if you dont close them? Thanks!

    Not necessarily...
    But there is no harm in Closing the Apps you are not using...

  • My iMac 27 became incredibly slow... And often the spinning wheel makes me wait ages even for simple actions (like switching desktops or just clicking the Apple logo)... What can I do ?

    After a crash of one of my partitions, I reinstalled my system on another (Lion).
    I've made all the updates but now everything is incredibly slow. It takes ages to have an answer (like "About this Mac" or to launch any software or utility.
    I have check th hard disk and apparently, the partition is correct.
    What can I do to find where is the problem ?

    Tanks for the advice
    Infortune télé, i cannot use thé recouvert partition bécasse I don't havé any... i havé to say I havé bruit à spécial environnement : at first I was usine Snow Leopard... And I built a Boot Camp partition... When I bought my Lion, I estimated it could be dangerous to jump straightforward to Liom, so I created a third partition for Lion and I installed it... But this was not compatible with the recovery partition !
    So, when my first Lion partition crashed (I got bad block on the volume) I decided to suppress the boot camp volume qns to reinstall Lion. Fortunately, Snow was still running.
    I.ve done all the other things you've adviced and things are going better... Everything works except mail : I guess I have to suppress all the mail account, repair the disk (and permission) and reconnect the mail accounts !
    Cheers

  • I just did an update to 6.0 on Lion. Now when I re-open Safari after closing it by clicking the red button  it re-opens to my home page, not all my previous tabs..  prior to the update it would re-open with all my previous tabs, which is what I want.

    I just did an update to Lion  10.7.4 with Safari  6.0. Now when I re-open Safari after closing it by clicking the red button,  it re-opens to just my home page, not to all my previous tabs as it did before the update.  I prefer having my old tabs re-open.  How can I fix this?

    I've had what I think is the same problem since the most recent software update.  I have Lion 10.7.4 and have updated to Safari 6.0.  The most noticeable difference is that where previously I had two boxes at the top of the Safari window (one to enter URL addresses, one for Google searches), there is now only one box for both functions.  I don't like that as well, but I can live with it.  However, since the most recent software update my "back button" only works about 5% of the time. Most of the time it is grayed out.  So I usually can't get back to previous pages using the back button.  Also, when I've clicked a link that opens a new window (for instance, going through the return process at Amazon, I clicked UPS locator and it opened a new window), where in the past I would have just clicked the red button after I had the information, the UPS locator window would have closed, and I would have been back at Amazon - now if I close the UPS locator window, all Safari windows close.  The Safari application doesn't close, but the Amazon window closes, I'm back to an empty screen, and I have to open a new Safari window and reenter everything.  I'm using a work-around of clicking on History and selecting the description of the window I want to get back too, but that only works part of the time. In the Amazon example, that's what I did once I had the UPS info, but even though I clicked the correct window description, it took me back to the beginning of the return process & I had to reenter all the info.  Of course, that info was easy to reenter, but if I'm in the middle of a complicated process, it's a big problem.  I've filed a bug report; I surely hope the Apple engineers are able to fix this.  I'm used to using the back button function a lot!

  • How do I call a method when the user clicks on the delete button?

    1 ) Add an adf button
    2) Add the following in the actions listener : #{bindings.Delete.execute}
    3) Right Click button --> create method binding for action
    4) Compare date ?

    The upgrade I'm interested is for OS X  v.10.8.5...
    ...The App Store page shows 2 different upgrades:   
    Mountain Lion  (10.8.5)  Software Upgrade,  and
    Yosemite FREE upgrade
    If the App Store is showing 10.8.5 as an update, what do you currently have installed? The final update to Mountain Lion was 10.8.5, and since the basic OS installation of Mountain Lion is no longer offered in the App Store, that would suggest you're currently at an earlier version of Mountain Lion - 10.8.x where x=less than 5. If that's the case, I'd suggest getting the 10.8.5 update. There is also a Supplemental Update for 10.8.5 and that may be what the App Store is offering.

  • Just noticed that when I close my mail app by double clicking the home button and swiping up it dies something weird. After doing this when I open my mail, instead of showing all my mailboxes it automatically opens one of them instead. Anyone know why?

    Just to recap, this is a collection of ports I have collected over time for people who needed this information when setting up the HP ePrint app so that they could view their email from within the app.  I am certain other applications also need this information.  Although lengthy, I could not find a more comprehensive place to retrieve this information.  Feel free to post additional information, faulty information, or other related topics below as this is simply a collection of data and it would be practically impossible to test all of them. Thank you!
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" if I helped solve your problem.

  • Why is the battery life dropping so fast on my iphone 4s. Just started all of a sudden today, never did it before. I already double-clicked the bottom button to see what was running and nothing was running. I checked multiple times and turned apps. off.

    All of a sudden today my battery life just started dropping off on my iphone 4s. I charge it every night. I double clicked the circle button on the bottom to see what was running and there was minimal running but i turned them off anyway. I checked back in a little bit, the same, turned the couple things off again which were like phone and messages... nothing major running. Battery percentage still plummeted til it just turned off.

    Are there apps on your phone right now? 
    I think one of your apps is causing this.
    The only way to find out is to delete them all and then add them one by one to see what app maybe causing this.
    Especially if you've gone thru 3 iphones already.
    When you restored as new - did you sync back your stuff - apps/music or did you restore from backup?
