The emails disappear when deleted on the server even while the checkbox "keep emails of this account on this PC" is checked

Hi,
i would like to use my account in a way, that when an email is deleted from the server (limited space) it still remains on my computer.
it did work for some time, but since I have a new PC, I was not able to configure it again that way.
I use IMAP.
Any toughts?
thanks very much,
Tamas

Dear Airmail,
Thanks for your answer. I did know this already.
Anyhow on my previous machine Thunderbird just did work differently, and I can not find the setting responsible for the change.
On my previous machine (also IMAP) if the message was deleted from the server (from an another machine for example) then that email did not disappear from my computer.
Maybe that was a failure of the Mozilla thunderbird back then, but anyhow I just would like to have that behavior without using an extra folder and see my emails in two folders..... not to mention, I dont know, if I have the local folder, how I automatically send all the emails from one email account to it the way it collects all of them but never delete...

Help!! My emails keep disappearing when I open mail. Even the new ones that start to load.

My emails go into thin air when I open the mail icon. Both the new and old ones disappear. It gets better if I reboot, but still keep happening. This has gone on for a month now. I also tried to change my settings....ask before you delete, show the first 50 messages. I turned off the cloud. . .

I don't know what you consider rebootting, but here are a bunch of things that you can try. Some are just - hey let's give this a shot and see!
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit the mail app and restart. In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You can also go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars - tap on your email account and turn it off - launch the mail app - then return to the settings and turn your email account on again - quit the mail app as described above - and then launch the mail app again.
The last thing I could suggest is to delete the mail account and add it back on again.

The TIme Machine volume does not have that checkbox.
I think the issue is with your Finder...
Go to Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)

HT1660 when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retireved?

when deleting music files from iTunes and you select Keep File, where is that file stored and how it is retrieved?

The file is just left where it was when it was connected to the library. Typically:
<User>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music/<Artist>/<Album>/## <Name>.<Ext>
If you want to add it back just drag it into iTunes. If you want to cull the files you kept previously add the entire iTunes Media folder back into iTunes (or use one of Doug's scripts that has the same effect), then delete (and don't keep) the recent additions.
Note that warning/prompt is only issued when the files you are removing are located inside the designated iTunes Media folder.

There are only two things that you must do to connect a device to calendars:
1) In settings>icloud, you must log in, WITH THE CORRECT ID/PASSWORD, and
2) Turn on calendars on the same page.
You said that the iphone 4 and ipad **used** to automatically sync. Do they no long sync?

Got an email stating my account was deactivated, but I checked AdobeSend online and my account is OK, no payment necessary. Was this a legitimate email from Adobe or has AdobeSend now been hacked?

Trying to convert my movie from Imovie to a high quality Itunes file and the program keeps crashing! This is an xmas gift for my mom ! Please help

Help! I made a 10 min movie for my mom for Christmas. Whenever I try to "share" it to make a cd of it the program keeps crashing! I HAVE to get this in the mail by friday! Please help

iTunes will not directly convert a protected AAC song. It also cannot convert some songs that are corrupted or have bad ID3 tags.
If it constantly fails at the same song, try eliminating that song from the list.
I have also found out that converting 400+ songs at a time can cause a fatal crash within iTunes. I usually stick to 200-250 songs at a time.
Post back with more details if it still happens.

IPad Pop3 email deleting from mail server even though set to NEVER

Hello.
We are experiencing a most strange behaviour with our e-mail. We use a web host and access e-mail through POP3.
Two of our users are experiencing similar problems, and this is how their lives are setup:
1) Outlook 2010, set to remove e-mail from server once downloaded, however, we are manually polling to receive e-mails at will, rather than periodically.
2) iPad 2 3G - Set to delete e-mails from server "never".
3) iPhone 5 (ios 6) - Set to delete e-mails from server "never".
One of the users is receiving e-mails to their iPad, but not to either of the other two devices, sometimes to the two i-devices but not t Outlook, and sometimes to all three. Occasionally, they are not receiving e-mails at all.
I have talked to our web host, and in all instances and testing we have done with them, they can see e-mails received, and deleted from the server. However, their logs cannot tell us anymore than that.
Here's the scenario:
1) Send an e-mail. Check the web host e-mail interface and can see the e-mail has arrived in the user's inbox.
2) Open e-mail on iPad. Receive e-mail. Refresh webmail to see if e-mail is still present, and it is.
3) Hit send/receive in Outlook 2010. E-mail not received in Outlook 2010. Refresh webmail to see if e-mail is still present. It is not.
So from all indications, it looks like doing a send/receive in Outlook is deleting the message from the server, but it is not being received in outlook. I should note here that we have done extensive searches to check if the e-mail was received into some other folder, and have setup a search folder of all e-mails received today, just to make sure we weren't missing anything. The e-mails are indeed never reaching Outlook.
If we hit send/receive in Outlook 2010 after we receive the e-mail on the iPad AND HAVE CLOSED THE E-MAIL APP on the IPAD, then we DO receive the e-mail into Outlook 2010, and it disappears from the server.
This would leave me to guess that POP3 is trying to latch on to the e-mail on the server from both the iPad and Outlook 2010 at the same time and is failing, but Outlook is deleting the message from the server before it can actually download it because iPad has POP3 locked.
Anyone have any experience with this? Any way to stop it from happening?

Was this ever resolved?

HELP! Contacts disappeared when deleting mobile me account.

On my iPhone 4S I just deleted my mobile me account from the email accounts because I don't use it for emails. Then, all my most recent contacts disappeared. I tried synching thinking they would come back from my computer and no luck. I tried adding the account back and my phone says that my contacts, emails, etc from my mobile me account will be automatically moved to iCloud. Help please.

Unless you were also syncing your MobileMe online contacts with a supported address book app on your computer as designed and intended, syncing your iPhone with iTunes accomplishes nothing especially if you don't have the supported address book app on your computer selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences to sync contacts.
If your MobileMe contacts were automatically moved to iCloud, create your iCloud account on your iPhone.

Icons in finder do not disappear when deleted

This is kind of hard to describe, but my finder's been acting really strange lately. Everytime i delete a file or folder in the finder the icon will not disappear completely, leaving some of the name of the file in the finder. This is really annoying, and it makes it look like the file is still there, even though it's been deleted.
If I just click one time on any of the icons, only the first line of the file's name will be selected, which makes it hard to read the file's name. Ive been searching the forums for an answer to this issue, but I still havent found anything.
Any ideas? thanks in advance

Videos downloaded to Iphone disappear when deleted from Itunes, why???

I am a bit annoyed. I have a number of entertaining short videos on my computer that I placed in ITunes so I could load them on to my Iphone. I then disconnected my Iphone from my computer and then deleted the videos from Itunes---they are already located elsewhere so why save them in two places??? When I later opened my Iphone to share one of them with a friend I discovered it, and the others, where no longer there. This is intrusive. Apple is interfering with how I use my computer and my Iphone. I paid for them, they belong to ME, NOT Apple.
Is there a way to change this?

Mark652,
Apple does not monitor your iPhone or iTunes library in that way at all. Information is only synced when the iPhone and computer are physically connected via the USB cable.
Was the iPhone in the dock or connected with the USB cable in between the time you put the movies on the iPhone?
Did you attempt to play the movies on the iPhone immediately after they were copied over? The movies might not have been copied over. iTunes would not copy the movies unless they were in a format supported by the iPhone. The first time a movie can't be copied to the iPhone or an iPod you will get a message, and have the option to never show that error again.
This page discusses the video formats supported by iTunes:
http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html
To quote, "Video formats supported: H.264 video, up to 1.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Low-Complexity version of the H.264 Baseline Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; H.264 video, up to 768 Kbps, 320 by 240 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats; MPEG-4 video, up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
Many clips found on the internet and elswhere are encoded using multiplexing or muxing, and are not supported in iTunes, iPhone, iPod, or iMovie, but may playback via Quicktime.
Hope this helps,

Bug when using Edit in Server Option while editting HiQ node.

I have recently started using HiQ nodes in my applications, but am running into problems. If I enter the "Edit in Server Option" and then change applications or click on another window without closing the HiQ server window I run into problems. I can no longer enter the "Edit in Server Option" and the HiQ program will not run. I can not seem to find the HiQ server window. The only way I have found around this problem is to close the current document, reopen it, delete the HiQ node and rewrite the entire code, and be very careful to always close the HiQ server window before doing anything else. Of course this is not a suitable solution. Has anyone else run into this problem? Have you figured out a fix?
Thanks,

Hi,
Base on my experience, it seems one of your node have not synced
the resource configuration, please run the cluster validation report test then post the error or warning part.
Thanks.

6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black after a while. How can I solve this ?

My 6th generation iPod nano automatically turns off (=stops the music) when I push het sleep/wake button or when screen turns black for power saving mode. Does anyone know how to solve this ?
I have already tried resetting, connecting to PC/iTunes to check the software version, turning off/on, I don't have any inspiration anymore.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi VeerleD,
If your iPod touch unexpectedly powers off, you may want to use the steps in this article to troubleshoot -
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting (The steps apply for the iPod touch) -
Specifically -
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Slow processing when clicking from song to song - the wheel keeps spinning!

When I click from song to song within iTunes 8.2.1 (6) (my music is kept on an external hard drive with a USB 2.0 connection), it takes an additional minute for it to play - the wheel keeps spinning - and this increases my workload by over 500%! Any idea why this is happening? Any way to correct it?
I used to occur when using 8.0, but then the 8.1 upgrade corrected this problem, but now that 8.2 is up, the wheel spins and spins and spins.

Every time I try to connect to my 2TB Airport Time Capsule I get the following message "The server may not exist or is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again." However, if I unplug it and then plug it in again, I can connect to it. How can this be corrected without having to unplug it all the time?

Are you using Yosemite??
This is stock standard yosemite bug and we have no simple fix for you..
You can fix it at its source..
Hack in DNS from Mavericks.. so Yosemite can be raised to a level of reliability above GHASTLY.. !!
http://arstechnica.com/apple/2015/01/why-dns-in-os-x-10-10-is-broken-and-what-yo u-can-do-to-fix-it/
Apple still have not fixed it.. and users are now sick and tired of the problem.. so have resorted to what can only be described as extreme measures.. in fact I wonder why people don't just revert to Mavericks.. or earlier.. whatever OS was reliable.. instead of seeing the latest greatest update as necessity.

The emails disappear when deleted on the server even while the checkbox "keep emails of this account on this PC" is checked
