TS3899 I have one message that I cannot delete. The error message reads: The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash.

I have one message in my Inbox that I have tried numerous times to delete and I just can't get rid of it. I have tried the instructions that the Apple Support suggests but it still didn't work. Has anyone else had this problem?

     I'm having the same problem. Seems to have started after an update about 4 days ago.
Mail seems to think the messages are files and won't let you have more than 1 with the same header in the Trash mailbox. If you do away with the Trash Mailbox by having mail delete the message instead of sending it to the Trash Mailbox the problem goes away, but so does the ability to recover a mistakenly deleted message. I get a lot of messages from the same people with the same header on the message. this problem is driving me crazy and I haven't been able to find anyone with any idea of whats causing it. Your the first user I've seen with this same problem.
     Lets hope someone has an idea. I would really like to solve this without losing all of my old emails.

TS3899 My email on my iPhone won't allow me to trash old messages -- I get "unable to move message" "message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash" I have restored to factory settings, asked AT&T about it (no help).

my iphone won't allow me to trash old email messages -- I get the little window that says "Unable to Move Message -- The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash." AT&T can't help me -- no one else has this problem, even though we're all on the same server from my company. I have restored to factory settings, but it didn't help. My email account settings are correct, the same as on my computers, and I can trash old messages on them.
What do I do now?

I have had a similar problem recently and followed advice here. Specifically, I used the brute force approach. As suggested by this site, I strongly urge you to backup your mailbox before trying this fix - just to be on the safe side.

Ow do I sync a movie downloaded to iTunes, but I get a message that says "cannot sync movie to iPod because this computer is not authorized". What do I do to fix this?

How do I sync a movie downloaded to iTunes, but I get a message that says "Cannot sync movie to iPod because this computer is not authorized"? How do I fix this?

And I assume you have already checked to see if your iTunes purchases are authorized by choosing Store -> Authorize This Computer?
Some have been able to resolve this issue by removing the downloaded purchase and redownloading it again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for more information on redownloading past purchases.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

You need to delete your preview cache and have Lightroom rebuild it. Cache location can be found here.

If you're running Leopard, as your profile says, then you need to post your question in that forum, not the Snow Leopard forums. So if you're really running Snow Leopard, you need to update your profile to show that, as well as give more details about what kind of mail accounts you have, and who your email provider is.

Download and install VLC Player. It plays more formats and is free and highly regarded.

Error Message - Could not be moved to the mailbox "(null)"

The archive button in macmail will not let me archive an email using one of my IMAP accounts, making me think I accidentally deleted an Archive folder during setup. I get the following error message. The message [subject] could not be moved to the mailbox "(null)". The destination mailbox does not exist.
Each of my email accounts have an archive folder, except for my work account (Tecsg) which has a circle icon instead of the Archive box icon.
Any tips on how to fix this?

So this worked for me...
I found the answer here.
Close Mail
Go to /Users/<username>/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/
Edit Accounts.plist
Make a backup of the file just in case
Find the following key-string pair under the account that you are having trouble with:
<key>ArchiveMailboxName</key>
<string></string>
Change the <string> tag value to your desired archive folder name, e.g. Archive
Save the file
Reopen Mail
The Archive folder will now apear with the rest of your archive folders in the navigation area.
You can also add an archive button to the toolbar.

'The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash' message when deleting

Hello,
I have a 3G and after upgrading to iOS4, whenever I delete messages from an Exchange mailbox on my iPhone, I get the message 'Unable to Move Message - The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash'. Odd part is that the message IS moved to Trash. I also have a gmail account setup and that one works just fine. Really more of an annoyance than an issue, but it's growing more annoying by the minute. Any ideas?
Thanks

Update - I deleted/re-added my account. Same issue. Also, no my Exchange calendar won't sync. Issue appears to be on the Exchange server. I see the following errors in my iPhone log:

Unable to move message, the message could not be moved to the mail box trash

I have an iPhone 4 with the error message 'unable to move message, the message could not be moved to the mailbox trash' with 4 emails, I managed to remove 2 of the messages by marking them as read however with the other 2 i tried this and it just crashed the Mail app any help would be appreciated.

Did you have Hotmail set-up with Android prior? I did, and if you did too, you have the same problem, and this is how to solve it.
From your desktop computer, the Hotmail (or Outlook) website uses the folder "Deleted" for your deleted messages as default. On your iPhone, the deleted folder's name by default is "Trash".
When I had my Hotmail with Android, it created a folder Trash for deleted messages, and it's creation was amongst all my folders. So when you go back and look at Hotmail from your desktop, you will see a folder Trash, in addition to the default Deleted. My Trash folder had all the emails I deleted from my Android.
That said, with the manual folder Trash that was created, when trying to set-up Hotmail now on iPhone, because I already had a folder Trash, it conflicted with the default "Trash" folder it wanted to created, so it didn't create it, being the reason why you can't delete emails, because it doesn't have the defaulted "Trash" folder to go to.
The solution is to delete the folder "Trash" from your desktop, uninstall Hotmail from your iPhone, and re-install, and it worked, the defaulted "Trash" was then created, alongside the "Sent" and "Junk".

IPhone 4 will not delete 'trash' ... "Unable to Move Message ... The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash"

I cannot empty my 'trash' ... it comes up with ... "Unable to Move Message ... The message could not be moved to the mailbox Trash"
I went into Settings > Mail > 'my account' > advanced > deleted mailbox > Trash (On My iPhone) ... it appears to delete a few items only ... I may try to individually delete 30 items and only 4 go ? help please ...

I have the same problem and there is no advanced option. Was this removed in the upgrade to ios 5? I have been chasing a solution to this and the fact I have various duplicate emails appearing in my work account for days now! It seems like I may have to delete my account and re-install. This appears to be a common problem, where is Apple's fix for it?

Delete your mail account/s and re-add them.

Since iTunes update my PC will not see other devices keep getting message The procedure entry point sqlite 3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite 3.dll, how do I get my other devices to be found?

Since iTunes updated my PC my other devices are not seen and I keep getting message "The procedure entry point sqlite 3_wal_checkpoint could not be located in the dynamic link library SQLite 3.dll", how do I get my other devices to be found? or do I have to remove all Apple software.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Now paste it in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

My Photoshop Elements 11 has suddenly lost contact with my CanoScan 9000F with the following message..."CanoScan 9000. software for this device could not be launched. The drive is not connected or is busy." How do I regain connection?

Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
