TS3899 Why doesn't an email that's deleted on my iPhone (gmail) delete on my iPad ?

I have an iPhone 4 using gmail. When I delete an email on the phone why doesn't it delete on my iPad ?  All incoming email syncs fine.  Deletions don't sync. What am I doing wrong?

You must be using a gmail POP account.  This type of account does not keep devices in sync.  Each device retrieves emails from the server independently of other devices.  If you delete on one device, that has no effect on the others.

  • Why doesn't my email in outlook forward to my iphone?  Everything else does, ie calendar, contacts

    I setup icloud and syncd everything.   The only issue is my email does not come to my phone.  When I syncd the email I had to setup a @me account and it shows up in outlook as a folder but my main email that outlook goes through is our company email through roundcube.  My apple id is also setup through my company email.  I can send emails from my phone but I noticed on a test email it shows up as my @me account even though my log in on the phone shows my other email.  How do I fix this?  I've searched and read different ideas about servers erasing emails and changing different settings but I had no luck.  The options I came across lately are beyond my expertise.  Walk throughs would be much appreciated if it requires more than a basic working knowledge.  I am actually setting this up from my boss and I don't use the iphone nor outlook often but over the past few days became accquainted with both.  Thanks for any suggestions!

    It actually fixed itself on installation of the update to 10.9.4, or at least it appears to have fixed itself anyway Thanks for the help though, that's a good page for reference.

  • Why doesn't my email download unless I open app?

    Why doesn't my email download unless I open app?

    Yes, the settings are correctly set on the iphone 4s.  It is a Yahoo email address.  I am not using iCloud.  Do you HAVE to have an icloud email account first in order for it to push automatically to other email accounts?

  • Why doesn't my email address work for apps

    Why doesn't my email address work on my envy printer?

    You don't give us anything like enough data to go on. What is your operating system? Do you have a functioning iCloud account - i.e. are you signed in in System Preferences>iCloud?
    Were you originally a MobileMe subscriber? If so, did you migrate to iCloud?
    Was your email still working recently? Do you get any error messages? What happens when you try to use it?
    Have you been using an @icloud.com address or an @me.com address?

  • TS3899 My ipad does not communicate with iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting should be changed?

    My ipad does not communicate with my iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting needs to be changed?

    It's my understanding that an iPhone can only sync with one computer. You need to choose one computer. Sounds like it syncs at work, but not at home. If you want to just sync it at home, then you have to make sure the home computer has all the info that you want on it, like music etc. Then you have to deauthorize the work computer for it to sync at home. When you connect it will ask if you want to set up as a new iPhone or restore from backup. If you don't have a backup on the home computer then either way you will be wiped clean. So any photos, contacts, notes etc you have will be erased. You would need to backup or copy your photos from your iPhone. When you connect it to your home computer, it will give you that popup message to open your iPhone files. Then you can copy those photos and save them onto your computer and sync them back in through iTunes.
    For your contacts, do you use any type of address book? If so you'll want to back that up and then transfer to your home computer. For notes, you can just email those to yourself and then save that email. I use MobileMe so the contacts issue is easily resolved.

  • Why doesn't my iPhoto library sync properly to my iPhone/iPad?

    Why doesn't my iPhoto library sync properly to my iPhone and iPad? I have already tried deleting the iPod photo cache. I sync the entire iPhoto library, which includes about 8,000 photos. The Events and Albums never match up, with many missing photos in most albums and events.

    Thats is how I did it originally and tried it that way again but it never brings in my library.  Now it gives me a response saying it doesn't have correct permissions. I'm the only user on the iMac. I did recently move the library from my old iMac iPhoto with no trouble.

    Why doesn't my computer download the songs from my iphone with clouds next to them?

    You can copy iTunes purchased songs over to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases, or have you tried going to the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage on your computer's iTunes and seeing if you can redownload them on your computer ?

    Double-tap the Home button to display recent apps.
    Tap and hold the affected app until the red minus appears.
    Tap the red minus to quit the app.
    Press the Home button, then restart the app.

    Tap Delete to remove the application and all of its data from your device.
    Press the Home button.

  • I have 4 email accts, all but one work fine, the main one doesn't receive emails that are sent to me at all? Any idea what went wrong?

    After the download, I began entering my email accounts manually. The first one "[email protected]" doesn't appear to be working properly. Emails that my friends have sent to me are not being received, test emails I have sent from my office are not geting to me either.
    I have looked at the setups for the other 3 accounts and all are the same as the first, so why is this happening?? Hopefully, when you send me an answer, I will get it???
    Thanks,
    Ron

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

  • Why am I getting  emails that I already received in my inbox?

    Today I got all my emails from the past month. I looked to see if something changed in settings but couldn't find anything. Why is the happening?

    Have you checked the email on a computer - in web mail perhaps? The reason that I ask is that my email provider's servers were down earlier this week, and I kept getting the message that my username and password were not correct on my iPad that I had been using for email not 5 minutes earlier. I knew that was B.S., so I logged onto my webmail on my Mac and when I tried to retrieve my email, there was a message from the provider that the services was down.
    What I mean is - you can get bizarre messages on the iPad about your email account  that are obviously not true - if your email service is down. I'm not saying that this is the problem, but it always pays to make sure that the issue isn't on the providers end.

  • Blkid - Why doesn't it mention that it needs elevated privileges ?

    Hello,
    I was wondering why blkid doesn't inform you that it needs root privileges for it to run ? If I don't give it root privileges it just outputs nothing. Is it the way it is coded and that exception isn't handled properly ? 
    For eg - if I run pacman as a normal user it throws an error asking you to elevate the privileges --: "error: you cannot perform this operation unless you are root."

    blkid can be used as a regular user, it just does something else:
    man blkid wrote:Note that blkid reads information directly from devices and for non-root users it returns cached unverified information.  It is better to use lsblk --fs to  get  a  user-riendly overview of filesystems and devices.
    This isn't too uncommon, wireless scanning works the same way.
    EDIT: crossposted with the above.  But I do not get a cache generated during boot either.  The output for me is empty until I run blkid as root.  Wormzy, I gather you have some service that runs this at boot up.

  • TS3899 Why cannot I receive emails when my iphone5 is on gprs.

    Why cannot I receive emails when my iphone5 is on gprs.

    thanks.  I was reading some of the other postings that I see on this page and got that impression.  Not sure what IMAP is but I'll keep reading and see if I can figure it out. I saw something that said a Mac.com email was IMAP so maybe I need to start using that instead of my Charter acct.  I know my work is an exchange account.  I have an Iphone, Mac and Ipad and need to start figuring out how all these work together and get more educated on this.  Thanks for your time.
