TS3899 How to restore email drafts folder on iPhone 5s

Im an idiot. My email drafts folder disappeared one day. It contained 3 months of critical diary entries and I left them there for 3 months before I noticed the entire folder was gone.
It is an smtp.comcast.net account. I have not touched that email since in the hopes those draft emails are recoverable.
Might they be still on the iPhone 4s running OS 6.xx? I havent upgraded for for fear of writing over whatever may still be there.
Help?
Thanks
Cliff

Same problem.
It's important to be able to set which IMAP folder is the Junk folder so that marking messages as Junk actually contributes to something. Otherwise you may as well just delete them.
If the Move to Junk option is used but it sends messages to a dumb folder called "Junk" rather than the mail server's designated Spam/Junk folder, then nothing is achieved.

msn email "drafts" folder disappeared in IOS update; did not reappear with "restore".

Thanks in advance!

I thought I would voice my opinion as well.
I have an iPhone 3G and whilst I would like to say that it is excellent and that I enjoy using it the reality is that in its current state (2.02 software) it is unusable. I really had to hold my tongue there - I feel really mad at present and feel that apple should try to release software that has been through at least one decent test cycle.
I am on my second phone - the first being returned at the suggestion of apple care who suggested it may be a hardware fault - there was no fault with the hardware - again software issues but I exchanged it to cover both bases.
I have never found that the backup to work and simply do a full restore - which at present I perform on a daily basis as the phone locks at the apple screen on a daily basis and it then takes over 5 hours to restore - it is unusable.
I suspect the underlying issue in my case relates to the volume of applications that I load onto the device - but hey it should be fit for purpose!
What I am looking for here is honest recongnition and report of the issues and problems with the device from apple - and releases that give a clearer indication of their intended purpose i.e. a little more detail than "Bug Fix". Is that too much to ask?

How do I open draft folder of my mail?

How do I open draft folder of my mail?

Tap on it. The same way that you open any folder in your email account. If you are asking how to create a draft folder .... Start typing an email and then tap Cancel at the top of the email window and you will be prompted to save or delete the draft. Tap Save Draft and then the draft folder will appear.
Now what are you really asking about? Will your draft folder not open?

While the steps below are fine for Word (and I gather that Excel, Powerpoint have similar steps), what
about Project 2007? We have Project 2007 SP3, and (a) it doesn't have an Office Button like the core Office 2007 products, and (b) the SharePoint Local Drafts folder isn't listed in the Save options. Please advise!
-Joe

Does anyone know how to upload email contacts on my iPhone from iTunes without loosing the phone contacts previously transfered from my older phone??

Does anyone know how to upload email contacts on my iPhone from iTunes without loosing the phone contacts previously transfered from my older phone??

Good Afternoon irish357,
I know the importance of saving and updating your contacts. What type of phone do you have? If you are using Backup Assistant, you have the ability to sync the contacts between your laptop and phone. You will also be able to see if all your contacts are stored on the online portion of the application versus the phone itself. The contacts should be the same for both online and the phone.
I have attached a link below for your reference.

I hope this information is helpful in resolving your concerns.

How to restore Emails to Mail from Time Machine?

Does anyone know how I restore my Mail contents?
I have restored my User to a Mac mini from Time Machine.
But my Mail contents were not restored.
I have not been able to find any intructions to restore my Mail contents.

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.

How to restore emails after hacking

My iCloud account was hacked and I need to know how I can get my emails back. My iPhone was backed up on iCloud yesterday.
Thanks!

Thanks for that. However it hasn't really helped. The problem is that I have to use the "Browse other Time Machine Disks" function and for some reason when i do, it doesn't not bring up any Mail or Address Book data.
You have to be a bit careful what you do, in what order.
Click on your Mail window so it's frontmost. Then select Browse Other Backup Disks and select the disk you want. That should bring up the "other" backups with the Mail window.

Any ideas about how to restore old appearance on my iPhone? I just updated to IOS7 and really dislike the new appearance. I have to log on to see percentage of power used since I can't see it on my opening screen. I also want the gray folders back.

I just updated to ios7 and do not like the redesign. I want the old design back. Has anyone found out how to restore the old appearance. I do not understand why the change. I now have to unlock my phone to be able to check my battery level because my screensaver has a light color in the upper corner and I can't read the text. I want the gray panel back.

How to restore the information for disabled iPhone 4 because battery discharged fully and no sync with iTune.

Hi;
I need to restore the information from disabled iPhone 4 because it went out of battery. I do know the passcode, but the phone is not showing the numbers to dial it. What is important for me is the data and not the phone. Below is the details of the phone:
1. Phone info:
iPhone 4
iOS version: not sure
Passcode: Known to me
2. Objective: To restore the data from the phone (Contacts, messages, files, ...etc)
3. Current Status:
i. Phone screen Content:
"iPhone is disabled"
"connect to iTune",
received sms,
"slide for emergency"
*******no passcode keyboard or dials!********
ii. Connect to iTunes status
- receive this message:" iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "xxxxxx's iPhone" because it is locked with a passcode. you must enter your passcode on the iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
**********Passcode is known but no mean to enter it from iTune or from iPhone! *********
no appearance of iPhone in the sidebar
4. Reason for the issue:
i.I left the phone without SIM in a safe for a while. it has daily alarm. it seams that the battery drained completely and when I charged I got this status.
ii. I normally don't connect (sync) my mobile to computer. I may have couple of sync but they are outdated in one hand and in the other hand I really need the information after I took them. Further, the machine is formatted where I kept the sync. So practically they are not existing.

It's not possible to selectively restore parts of the backup - it's all or none. If you had been syncing your contacts, calendar and notes to iCloud or an app on your computer, just sync them back - it's automatic with iCloud if you set this in settings.
Your in-app history and data was contained in the backup you aren't using. There's no way to retrieve them without restoring the entire backup. For all you know, the problem causing the overheating was corrupted app data that you don't want back in the phone.

How to restore email including imported mail

Last night I screwed up my new iMac & had to restore entire system from backup. After many hours & help from the Time Machine forum, I was able to restore everything except my emails. I do have all my folders under “On my Mac/ imported” But they are all empty. I’ve been on with Apple support over 1.5 hours (mostly on hold.) Multiple times opening Mail & opening TM & restoring the date/time I wanted & also trying an hour earlier. --No luck.
Strangely,as soon as I open TM (b4 I restore anything) when it says “Today-Now” at the bottom of the screen --My Mail program SEEMS restored to yesterday with all my missing mail in all the correct folders! But as I explained, doing restore, even rebooting does not work. The mail immediately returns to the empty folder version!
It was pointed out to me in TM forum “In Mail use the scroll bar towards the left to scroll all the way to the bottom of your mail boxes. The restored mail should be there. Restored or imported mail doesn't go into your original mail boxes.”
Unbelievable that the Apple support tech didn’t know that! I checked & see a new “Time Machine” White folder containing 14 blue “Recovered Mailbox” 1, 2, 3 etc. All are empty except three which contain slightly different versions of my inbox prior to the data loss. If it was only the inbox I wanted to recover --I’d simply move the 20 + restored messages into my current inbox (if possible) & then delete the restored folders & be done. But, All of my thousands of saved emails from my imported folders are still gone. I’m beginning to suspect that any imported folders under the “On my Mac” section are stored in a different location & must be recovered differently? I wonder how all the other people who restore their entire system restore their email?
Please help!
Thanks,
Steve

This was finally solved by 2nd level Apple tech support. You can read my other post under TM. “Help new Mac user restore entire system”
Summary:
While on hold (forever) I did check the mail folder (Macintosh HD/Users/<user name>/library/Mail) & saw many sub folders were over 100 MB so, I suspected my “missing” mail was actually there. I was on hold 1 3/4 hours waiting for an Apple tech support “Specialist.” He solved it but, it took him 40 minutes. 1st trying a simple open Mail & go into TM & try Restore from the date I wanted. Didn’t work. Then going to the mail folder (Macintosh HD/Users/<user name>/library/Mail) & selecting it & opening TM & again try to restore that folder to the date I wanted. Again, no luck. He then tried to go into Preferences & we did several things (many of which I cannot recall exactly) with com.apple.mail.plist & I think with another file. None worked.
Finally -- He had me open Mail & import from the mail folder (Macintosh HD/Users/<user name>/library/Mail). That Worked! I now had a new folder “Import-2” after Import. (My original Import folder from my initial transfer of mail from my Dell PC via Thunderbird was still there after restore but all the folders were empty.) Now Import-2 had all the folders FULL of my email. I double checked & then deleted my Import folder with all the empty subfolders & then renamed Import-2 to Import. For some reason most of the folders had sort order wrong & some column headings wrong. I fixed all that easily. Strangely, each folder had some emails in yellow & took me quite some time to figure out to simply highlight them all & open color wheel & select black. So, I am back! I’m restored. The Specialist said that the 1st restore attempts SHOULD HAVE worked. He suspected a preferences problem (corrupt file, no way to tell) He said that the mail was there all the time but, just was not showing in the mail program. He had no idea why TM showed it immediately --as if restored -- each & every one of my many TM restore attempts. As soon as I exited TM I was back to empty folders. He said he would do some research & get back to me. He called today & said that The original system restore that DID bring back everything (except my mail) SHOULD have also restored the mail. He said it was an isolated incident & if I ever (shudder!) have to restore entire system once again. It should work properly. If not I will check the mail folder to see if has the mail & if it does, do an import as was the eventual solution this time.
Total time with Apple Tech Support = 3 HOURS, mostly holding.
