Unread email folder doesn't exist on iPhone mail application?

Hi everyone,
I just recently switched over to an iPhone 4 after 6 years with a Blackberry. I have many apple products and was finally able to switch at work. Everything is great except that the way you have to find unread email is very cumbersome. On the BB, all unread mail appeared in the default mail view. On the iPhone, I have to go into the folder view to find emails that I have ruled into other folders on my Microsoft Exchange account which is very cumbersome.
Also, I hear a new email alert but the mail icon doesn't update the unread mail count unless that email comes to my inbox folder. Since I work in IT at my organization and receive many emails, I have them ruled on exchange to many different folders. I have all of those folders pushed to the iPhone but I have to manually look in each folder for the unread mail count next to the folder.
So I guess I'm saying that this is not efficient enough mail for me. Can you do setup an unread mail folder that shows all unread mail regardless of what folder it really is in on the iPhone mail program somehow? If not, can this be submitted as an enhancement as it makes email use very cumbersome. I have found tons of posts about this through google searches. I thought I would make a post to see if we are all missing something simple. If there is a simple setup that I can configure to fix this, please let me know!
Thanks,
Unhappy mail user

I am trying to change the Apple ID on my old iPhone 5c but it wants a password for an old Apple ID with and email that doesn't exist anymore

MMy old iPhone 5c is wanting a password for logging into my apple account. The problem is that the email address its tied to doesn't exist anymore. I changed the email to a different one. But can't figure out how to change the email address on the phone to the new email address.

The fact that the email address doesn't exist anymore doesn't matter. As far as the Apple ID is concerned, the email address is just a user name. As long as you know the password you used, it should be fine.
If you don't remember the password, start here:

How do I update apps under an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and have forgotten the password?

I want to update some apps on my iphone but can't because it's asking for an old apple id email that doesn't exist anymore and I have forgotten the password for it!
Help!!!

The apple id login is never deleted. The emaill address itself can be disabled or not in use any longer. The apple id login will still be available to you. If you will go to the website My Apple Id
https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
and use the listed apple id login that your apps are asking for to update - once you have changed the password at the lsted website you then will be able to update using the old apple id once you have logged into the device using the old apple id and password.
Good luck.

Dreamweaver, OS X 10.4, Local folder doesn't exist?

Since getting my brand new MacBook from Amazon a few days
ago, I've been struggling with getting DW (7 and 8) to work with
local folders.
After I Define Sites and enter the info for my local copies
of the site's files, I connect to the server. The Remote view shows
the files on the server, but when I switch back to the Local view,
it says the folder where my files are, doesn't exist.
I can interact fine with the Local files (create, rename)
until I connect to the Remote computer. After I do connect, when I
go back to the Local view, it says the Local folder doesn't exist.
Sometimes when updating the Site it sometimes says "Can't
create local folder" so Im guessing DW isn't able to hold onto the
fact that the Local folder is there somehow.
I've repaired permissions, verified the disk, made sure the
most recent patches are applied on DW (7.01 and 8.02), deleted the
DW prefs for both versions. I've even created a new user on my Mac
and created the new site folder from scratch, but this problem is
happening with all user accounts on this Mac.
Everything was working fine on the old PowerBook before I
used the Migration Utility to automatically bring things over.
Desperately in need of help!

I think that WAS it. Holy Weekend Waster Batman! I spent the
last few days of my life on debugging because of that space
character.
I had found a workaround in that I could use a disk image
that I created on my Mac. That, I guess, worked because of the
filename.
I had thought it was some Permissions thing since the disk
image had totally open permissions. But it seems the space
character was the reason.
Thanks!!!!!

Trying to clear unread emails shown as a badge next to mail icon, have done network reset and now a complete factory reset and checked server. Any other thoughts on clearing these ghost emails??

Trying to clear unread emails shown as a badge next to mail icon, have done network reset and now a complete factory reset and checked server. Any other thoughts on clearing these ghost emails?? Also can we get our old keyboard back that shows lower case and upper case?

Understood, the difference with iTunes being that Apple doesn't (currently) require you to enter any account info on the device until you try to purchase something from their store. Initial setup is just a connection to the iTunes software and you're good to go.
While I understand that RIM wishes the account to be defined, they also need to be aware that doing so during the initial setup without proving an option to do it later, while failing to provide any means to change it afterwards (short of a device wipe) doesn't always suit the the situation. Hopefully they'll be reviewing the forums to gather feedback that they can incorporate into future software updates.

There are two standard protocols for receiving email, POP and IMAP. In the POP (Post Office Protocol) when messages are "read" by your email client (Mail) they are downloaded and stored on the reading computer and deleted from the POP server. When you are using IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) the messages remain on the IMAP server until they are deleted. IMAP was created for exactly the situation you are trying to achieve. For example Apple's iCloud (formerly me.com, formerly mac.com) uses IMAP protocol. So whether I access my email on my Mac, my iPhone, my iPad, or via webmail I have access to all the files in all the various mailboxes automatically because they are all seeing and using the same online mailboxes. If I delete a message on any of the varioius devices it is deleted on all of the various devices.
Whether you can use IMAP protocol or not depends on your email host and whether they have an IMAP server or not. Many ISPs do not offer IMAP because they do not want to bear the expense of the additional disk space required to store the IMAP messages. As I mentioned before Apple's free email service is by default IMAP. Google Mail offers a somewhat non-standard IMAP service. It works with Apple's email client, Mail, but it is just a bit "different".
Personally I resisted using IMAP for years. Largely because I had always used POP and was comfortable with it. Once I got an iPhone and needed to synch my email between my computer and iPhone I realized IMAP was "the only way to go."

Every time one of my email addresses doesn't work on my mail app, due to wrong password or whatever, it deletes all of the contacts form my phone. What can I do to stop this from happening?

Every time one of my email addresses doesn't work on my mail app, due to wrong password or whatever, it deletes all of the contacts form my phone. What can I do to stop this from happening?
I have tried deleting the account and it deletes all my contacts. I have verizon and even using back up assistant, it says the contacts are there but they aren't. The only way i can find a contact is if I start to type a name in and new text but once i sent the new text, the name disappears and it just shows the number. Siri nor the address book don't recognize any contacts at all.

I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email. I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

IPad unread email count doesn't tally with Microsoft Exchange 2007 email count from OWA.

I discovered that when we first setup the iPad to sync email from Microsoft Exchange 2007 server via ActiveSync, the total number of unread email count tally with the count from OWA. After a few days, the unread email count will be out of sync. The settings for iPad "Mail days to syn": No limit. Mail to show: 1000. iPad iOS: 5.1.1
We performed the following:
1.     Compare email by email to verify which are the read email from OWA doesn't sync to iPad. We discovered that some emails read from OWA doesn't sync with iPad even performed forced update. However, if we delete that read email from OWA, it will delete (unread) from iPad immediately after sync.
2.     Email recall message for successful recalled displayed in OWA but not on iPad.
3.     Calendar invite message forward as email displayed in OWA but not in iPad.
Is there a bug for Microsoft Exchange 2007 or there is limitation for iPad?
Any kind expert can advice?
Thanks.

Site folder doesn't exist?

Hello all,
I am running Dreamweaver 8 on Mac OX 10.4.8. I recently went
to open my index file for one of my site folders, but DW gives me
an error message stating that the item was not found. If I go into
Finder, all my files are still there, as well as all my folders for
each site I've created. When I go to open any of my site folders,
it says, " the local root folder does not exist, please select a
new root folder by clicking manage sites..." If I go to Finder and
open any one of the files, they open OK in DW. Why isn't DW
recognizing that the site folders are there? Please help!

> on Mac OX 10.4.8. I recently went to open my index
> file for one of my site folders, but DW gives me an
error message
my first thought is this is likely to be an issue with Hard
drive or folder
names on macintosh that has been an issue with dw on mac
since the start.
to rule this in or out as being the problem- pls do this:
Open a new dw document using File-->New
-->don't save this file<--
Insert an image from this site's local site folder
look in code view, and copy that <img> tag and paste
into your reply.
I'm looking to see what the SRC of that image tag is- it
should show the
complete local path like
src="file:///hdname/Users/~you/folder/folder/folder/file.jpg"
background info:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14452
synopsis- use of some characters in hd name or folder names
can cause dw to
not be able to resolve the path to the local site folder on
mac. Leading
blank space in the HD name, or punctuation in folder names
for example.

Home folder stopping me from opening the mail application

Ok this may sound stupid, but what and where is the home folder so tht I can delete documents in it to access the mail application?

Your Home Folder is the one with the icon of a little house, and carries your username. It's in the Dock: its actual location is (hard disk)>Users><username). It contains your Documents, preferences, mail, everything personal to you. However 'delete documents in it to access the mail application' doesn't make any sense. The Mail application is in the Applications Folder. What happens when you double-click on it? Do you get an error message? Does it open?

I put on my iphone an email that doesn't exist!

Hi there everyone i just have my new iphone and i put in my icloud the incorrect email address how can i change it?
can please **** me

Howdy JenLondono,
Are you not able to sign out of the incorrect iCloud "account" and sign back in with the correct one?
iCloud: Change iCloud feature settings
Turn off iCloud completely
Depending on whether you want to stop using iCloud on all or only some devices, do one or more of the following:
On your iOS device: Go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Sign Out (Delete Account in iOS 7 and earlier).

Archive folder doesn't exist

I have read and followed everything I can find about archiving data, but the problem is that the location specified in Tools/Account Settings/(account)/Copies and Folders does not appear to exist. The entry in the box is the account name. Is that a problem, and in any case, where are my messages?

Well, I followed the directions for archiving (open folder, select first entry, hold CNTL and shift, select the last one, click Archive button), and expected to find a folder called "SBC" (the account name) with old emails in it. I found... Nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada.
As for pop vs IMAP, neither Tools/Options nor Tools/Account Settings has anything about either one. I told TB that I had SBC, and it worked it all out by itself. There isn't a folder called Global Inbox; the default is just called Inbox. The one in question is one that I set up, not the default.
Did I set up Archive Options? Well, it certainly LOOKS set up. "Keep Message Archives in" is checked, as is "Archive Folders on:" and that dialog box says "SBC". The Archive Options button leads to a form that has "yearly archived folders" selected, and "Keep existing file structure of archived messages" is also checked. It didn't generate any error messages when I ran the archive.
The emails that are missing are every one that I tried to archive. The rest are intact.

I redeemed an iTunes code to an email that doesn't exist...

When I was registering my sister's Apple ID via the redeeming option (because if you don't have an iTunes card, you have to redeem through the credit card option, and she doesn't have one), I typed a wrong number in her email address, creating one that most likely didn't exist, and I didn't notice it until it sent the verification. I didn't get an option to change the email address or anything, and now I can't redeem the code under the real email address, what should I do?
