'To' messages don't show up?

OK so I want to see if I sent this person an invoice or not -- so I type his name in the search box of mail, and select him in the drop menu that appears.
Then I click 'To' next to that in the search box.  All I see are a few emails from more than a year ago.  And some of those are not even from me to him, but from other people to him (where I was cc'ed).
Why is that?  Before I clicked the 'To', I can clearly see many email threads back and forth between me and him, from much more recently. 
The guy only has one email address, so it's not like I'm looking at the wrong one.  And the messages are in my Inbox, which is where I was searching.
Is Mail just buggy or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Bob

Nah, it happens to all of us, at one time or another.
Glad to help!

  • Contacts added in Messages don't show up in Contacts/Address Book?

    Okay, here's what's happening:
    1) A friend messages me for the first time
    2) At the top of the message window I hit "Add contact"
    3) I type in the details
    4) Now, this new contact SHOULD show up in my Address Book/the Contacts app, right? But it doesn't!

    If found a thread on stackexchange dealing with several suggestions, none of which worked for me. The last message in the thread is diappointing as it basically says "don't use the add contact feature in the Message app". Unfortunately that is the answer I'll be going with since the feature is obviously broken.
    Here's the link to the thread: http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/36131/some-contacts-not-showing-up-but- are-still-stored-in-iphone-4

  • New IMAP messages don't show as "unread" in Lion

    I recall fixing this problem in Leopard, but I can't remember how I did it.
    I read my email on three devices (iMac, iPad 1, iPhone 3G). Since I upgraded the iMac to Lion, I've found that Mail frequently, but not always, retrieves new IMAP messages, but they don't appear as unread (i.e., no blue dot). Consequently, they're easy to miss, and the Dock icon badge doesn't show the new count, either.
    Suggestions?

    Mail Preferences > Viewing > Display unread messages with bold font.
    On the top of the same preferences page is the option to use classic layout i.e. SL.
    Mail Preferences  > General  > Make sure that Dock unread count is selected.

  • Messages don't show in mail thread

    Hi
    This has happened several times, so I thought it was time to see if there was a solution.
    When i am writing emails, the threads build up. Which is not a problem.
    But sometimes, like the next day, I need to recall what was said in the email thread.
    I type in the name of the person to find the list of their responses. All good!!
    Then, for some reason the headers of the emails appear, but none of the message.
    And sometimes with my reply message as well.
    If I come back later, it may show them if I go through the same process, or it stays the same.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks

  • Problem: Sometimes Messages don't show up

    Hello, I'm writing from Portugal.   Sometimes i use the Messages service to talk to a friend online, in a kind of 'chat' usage.  In some days, while we are talking, suddenly the messages that i write keep showing up in my computer, but stop showing up  in my friends computer, so she thinks i stopped the conversation without warning, and went away.  I may write several messages, and none of them is delivered. In the meantime, she continues to write to me, and i can see her messages.  Then, i have to warn her by mail, to close Spotify and open it again, and then all the messages that are missing will appear.   It as happened to me also, with messages she sends me.   Can anyone tell me why, and how can we avoid this problem ?   Thanks.
    Jotace

    I'm having the same problem as well. My OS is Windows 8, and I'm operating the latest version of spotify (1.0.10.107.gd0dfca3a), and ever since I updated to this versions, new chat messages only show up when I refresh the App. Also, when I refresh the App and see the message someone sent me, the message notification icon doesn't fade away unless I refresh the App again.

  • Attachments and html messages don't show in Mail

    Hi,
    Since using OS X Lion (now at 10.7.2) Mail will not display attachments. Using  Command + Y opens an overview window, but clicking on the suggested «open with… app» button results in a crash every time, no matter with app is suggested.
    I have imported some mailboxes from the previous mac running 10.6. Could that be a problem?
    I can go and grab attachments manually from the Mail downloads folder, but I’d prefer the old-fashioned way…
    Most mails (including Apple’s) don’t display as html-version, a few (e.g. iStockphoto) do nicely, though. The option to display mails as html mails is active….
    Thanks for any helpful hints.

  • How do I get Firefox to display the information bar when a pop up is blocked I accidentally clicked on "Don't show this message when pop-ups are blocked" when a pop up was blocked. How do I get this message to reappear again when a pop up is blocked?

    I just updated Firefox but can't get it to display the message when a pop-up is blocked. Most times I want them blocked but sometimes I need them enabled.

    You can see a pop-up block icon in the right corner of the Status Bar if you have chosen to hide the information bar at the top.
    You can left-click that pop-up block icon on the Status Bar and remove the check mark from "Don't show info message when pop-ups are blocked"
    You can look at these prefs on the '''about:config''' page and reset them via the right-click context menu:
    Status bar icon: browser.popups.showPopupBlocker
    Info bar at the top: privacy.popups.showBrowserMessage
    To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

  • HT5538 My brother and I share an iTunes account and his text messages show up on MY macbook. His texts don't show up on my phone though. how can i delete his number off my iMessage on my laptop?

    My brother and I share an iTunes account and his text messages show up on MY macbook. His texts don't show up on my phone though. how can i delete his number off my iMessage on my laptop?

    These are iMessages only.
    He activated iMessage on his iPhone with the same Apple ID that you activated iMessage with on your Mac.
    On your Mac, go to Messages preferences.
    Under the Settings selection for your Apple ID, deselect your brother's phone number for you can be reached for messages at.
