TS3276 Any ideas as to how to delete persistent emails from Mail?

I am unable to delete messages from my Mail box. I have a gmail account and have deleted these messages from "All Mail" and they still appear listed in my Mail inbox. The name is sometimes grayed out, sometimes black. There is no content in the email itself, just the name. I am able to delete other emails but there are about ten emails that remain. Any ideas?? Thanks!

Rebuild the mailboxes, and see if that clears the messages, or allows the delete to "stick".
Mail.app > Mailbox > Rebuild
Once you've rebuilt and then deleted the messages, quit and restart Mail.app.
If there's a web access path available for the mail server you're using, try deleting the messages from that, too.

Update to ios7.0.3. They resurrected the trick of Edit, click a single email, then press move, release the email you checked and then all the e mails can be moved to whatever folder you want.

Can't delete certain emails from Mail. Instead, I get the message "An error occurred while moving messages to the mailbox, etc."

How to Move All Emails from MAIL to ENTOURAGE

After 30 years married to Windows I have filed for divorce and am entering a new relationship with Apple via a new Black MacBook. (you may have heard the expression "once you've gone Black you'll never go back"!)
Although many Mac things are elegant the move from Outlook Express and Outlook to MacMAIL was disgustingly painful and amateurish. I now have 25,000 emails mixed up together in MAIL. (They were formerly neatly separated in Outlook Express into various accounts with sub-folders according to my various businesses and projects.) The Apple store that guided me was totally uninformed about the abiity to transfer intact account structures from Outlook Express and Outlook and so I am left with 10 years of filed emails all mixed together ... what a disaster in my first week of the new marriage!!
It appears to me that MAIL is not the serious business email program I need. I have heard that Entourage might be more powerful and flexible, and in fact is similar in functionality to Outlook. My HUGE concern however is the continuation of my pain in moving my emails again.
Can anyone assist me with credible advice on (a.) how to make the move (b.) is Entourage a truly business-strength program (c.) are there any programs to facilitate the transfer, and (d.) how can I get the file organization back again?
I have 6 separate accounts and own all my own domains through which I have my email services (incoming and outgoing mail is controlled by my servers).
This is my first real experience with Apple and it has been painful. While Apple seems truly superior in audio, video, music, graphics and "cool designer widgets" I have found that in a serious business environment in which email is a foundation of our businesses that Apple lags behind. I really hope to be able to embrace the Mac world totally but I am unimpressed about what I have found so far. I would be deeply grateful for any helpful comments.

Have you used Entourage's import feature?
It may not be exact since Entourage does not use the same account and filing structure as Mail but it will be close. There isn't any other way to transfer all Mail.app mailboxes and messages to Entourage that I'm aware of.

How do I replace emails from Mail back to my hotmail account?

Hi,
I recently used the program Mail to synch with my hotmail account but unfortunately in the advanced settings the default setting within Mail was that the mails were removed from the server after one week. I have now marked the option that the message will never be removed from the server from hotmail. I have now a lot of messages in Mail that I would like to put back on my hotmail account!
Could someone advice me what to do, how could I push the messages back again towards hotmail?
Regards,
Maurits

You cannot do this with any POP account -- only if using an IMAP one.

How to move multiple emails from Mail to my folders on the hard drive

I would like to be able to move multiple emails at a time from a given mailbox to a selected folder on the hard drive in a format that I can subsequently read.
I know I can move them one at a time in RTF. And either RTF or HTML would be fine (along with whatever attachments) as a format.
But I can't seem to find either a command or a format that will allow me to do this.
My goal isn't archiving -- I want easy access to these emails and their attachments. I just want to get them out of Mail and into the folders on my hard drive that have other documents with related content.
I would greatly appreciate any advice that someone could give me.
Ed

Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts has an Archive Messages script that you may or may not find useful.

I recently changed from a Mac Pro to an iMac. A large chunk of emails have disappeared. Time Machine is no help. Any ideas as to how I can get them back?

I recently changed from a Mac Pro to an iMac. Despite using Migration Assistant, a large chunk of my recent emails and nearly all of my wife's emails have disappeared in transit. Strangely, emails from my distant past are still there. Time Machine is no help; the messages may be on my backup disc but they're behind an invisible icon. Any ideas as to how I can get them back?

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the text on the line below to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

I am having the same problem I think. With mobileme you simply copy documents to the idisk folder and then synch. I cannot seem to sink that folder anymore. Any idea as to how I can simply copy folders to icloud and then access the MS Word and PDF file

Apple never bopthered to explain that this would happen
Your iDisk is still accessible after moving to iCloud in exactly the same way as before. Nothing is deleted until June 30th 2012.
, so I could easily have lost ALL of the files I kept on iDisk.
No, you couldn't. Firstly, nothing was deleted from your iDisk. Secondly, any files stored on your iDisk should never be your only copy. Even if your iDisk spontaneously combusted, you should keep local backups elsewhere.
Does Apple WANT people to move their storage elsewhere and stop paying Apple for it?
Yes. Apple doesn't provide such a service anymore, nor are you paying them for it.
Apple has made no effort to suggest remedies for the problem it has given iDisk users
They've provided instructions on how to download your files from your iDisk. What you do with them after that is your choice.

I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?

I have just updated my iPad and now cannot access any apps as they just close down straight away. Any ideas why and how to solve?

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
I've also seen it suggested that people try downloading a free app from the store onto the iPad (as that seems to reset something), and then re-try the apps - the free app can then be deleted.

I installed OX S Lion today but now my safari quits every time I open it. Any ideas why and how I can resolve?

I installed OX S Lion today but now my safari quits every time I open it. Any ideas why and how I can resolve?

Yes done that several times. Went online with with my service provider, O2. Spoke to a "Guru" sent me an E-Mail with the settings so I could put them in manually incase the reset did'nt work.

After installing Lion os I cannot see my desktop 1 nor can I see my open windows when I go to finder, I just get the grey/black background that comes with mission control. Any ideas as to how to solve this problem?

The top picture is what my Desktop 1 looks like. And the picture below is what my desktop looks like after clicking mission control. Ive tried changing wallpapers, changing preferences, etc. and I still can't figure out what's wrong. As you can see, on mission control you can't see any of the open windows, or anything that I have placed on my desktop. Any ideas as to how to solve this issue?

Hello cor-el, thanks for your reply. I changed my settings for downloads to desktop and it has appeared on there. When I double click I am asked which program I want to open file. I click firefox and another box "opening install" says I have chosen to open the file which is an application and do I want to save it. This is the only real option so I press save file. I get a box saying this is an executable file which may contain viruses - do you want to run. I press ok and the final box showing C drive file name and desktop appears stating application not found.
This happens the same whenever I try to install.
To my untrained eye the application is not being recognised as an application and I cannot work out how to get it to do that.
My plugin is still showing as out of date.
Is there anything you could suggest. Thanks for your time.
