What Does Mail "Continue Search on Server..." Mean?

When searching in iPhone Mail, you have the option of continuing the search on the iMap server. It doesn't seem to search the whole server, otherwise it would really find my stuff which I know is there and can be found in Mac Mail.
So if iPhone Mail is through searching on the iPhone, and it doesn't REALLY search the server, what is it searching?

Ask your email provider for the correct settings to use to set it up on your phone.

  • Continue search on server

    On my dads iPad, if you search in the mail app you then get an option to "continue search on server". I don't see that on my iPhone. Is there a way to turn it on? Im using gmail set up through the gmail option in mail as an imap account.

    I just turned the "exchange" account back on (I had set it up before but had it as inactive) and that account does give me the continue search on server option but doesn't actually give me results even when I know they are there. :-(
    I've had to resort to using the web based gmail to find messages and move them to the inbox which is a ridiculous workaround to need.

  • What does "network connection has timed out" mean??!!

    What does "network connection has timed out" mean?

    It means that the destination server is taking too long to respond. This can sometimes be resolved by closing safari and reopening it, turning off your modem, and then after 10secs turning it back on, or if you have and airport extreme/express, or Time Capsule, restarting those.
    Good Luck

  • Connection to server failed when selecting continue search on server

    Hi,
    I have a client that has an Exchange 2007 server and is having problems searching emails on their iPads (and iPhones). When they search and then hit continue search on server, it will come back with a "Connection to Server Failed"
    Client claims that it "used to work"
    anything we can tweak on the ipad or server to help?

  • What does Mail do when "checking account connections" (accountverbindingen controleren)?

    Maii does something called "accountverbindingen controleren" (checking account connections)
    Activity window full text:
    accountverbindingen controleren
    verbinden met server 'smtp.<ISPname>.com'
    (checking account connections
    connecting to server 'smtp.<name>.com')
    It seems to do this every time Mail encounters a glitch in the connection or when I did something in Preferences.
    The result often seems to be that I get blocked on the common mail ports at my ISP for "spamming activity"
    What does Mail actually do when it says this?
    and how can I stop/prevent Mail doing this?

    Everything that is pre-installed on the iPad is free : http://www.apple.com/ipad/built-in-apps/
    You can also download a copy of the iPad manual from here which has brief chapters on each of the built-in apps (plus iBooks which is a free download) : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/
    In terms of when you will be charged, then that will happen when you click on 'buy' on an item in the store (they are charged immediately). Some apps also allow you to make in-app purchases within them (though you can prevent them being possible by setting restrictions on the iPad via Settings > General > Restrictions : understanding restrictions).  Some apps also allow you to take out auto-renewing subscriptions within them which are charged automatically each week/month/year until you cancel them e.g. newspaper and magazine apps.
    Note that whenever you change the credit card details on your account you may see a temporary store holding charge on it, which should disappear within a few days - so if you've just created your account don't be surprised if you see a $1 'charge' on it for a few days

  • What does call failed and call busy mean?

    I call my bf on Skype every time I see him on there and it rings and eventually it says call failed and sometimes it will say call busy, what does call failed and call busy mean?

    WuTom wrote:
    If a call is marked as "Call ended" does this guarantee the other person ended the call, or can it also mean the call disconnected or was dropped?
    Was talking with someone and at one point the "Call ended - call dropped". Few other times it was just marked as "Call ended", they have bad internet. So is it possible the "Call ended" means the call was dropped due to internet or were they for definite hanging up?
    Thanks
    Hi WuTom,
    From experience, it depends on the platform which you are using. In my case, my boyfriend is using Skype for iPhone and I am using Skype for Mac. Sometimes I find that the "Call ended - Call dropped" is the result of bad internet on my or his part. "Call Ended" on its own could mean one of two things, among others:
    1. A person accidentally touches the red end call button; or
    2. Skype crashes unexpectedly (either because of internet as you said or other issues such as flat battery)
    This is just from my personal experience, but I do hope it clears some stuff up for you. 

  • What does "Press F12 for BBS POPUP" mean when I switch my Equium on?

    What does "Press F12 for BBS POPUP" mean when I switch my Equium on?
    Any idea? Thanks!

    Hi
    I presume you are reading the message provided from POST (Power On Self Test)
    There you can see different messages.
    As far as I know pressing F12 at the beginning of the boot process will enable the boot menu. Then you can choose between different boot options and boot devices;
    So dont worry, its nothing unusual.
    I think it should be possible to disable this in the BIOS;
    Check the option for Boot Settings Configuration / Quiet Boot -> Disabled or something like this.
    Cannot remember exactly how the option is called.
    greetings

  • What does 'kernel bug in process suhelperd' mean in very simple terms please

    what does 'kernel bug in process suhelperd' mean in very simple terms please

    Hi,
    Any that ends in a "d" tends to be a dameon process used by the System as a whole.
    As in launchd is the process that make sure all the Extensions and Kexts that run the OS are started.
    helper would refer to a specific thing  (the info you posted offers no reference to that and I don't know off the top of my head)
    The su would probably refer to the permissions this item has at that moment in time (su is normally a Terminal Instruction allowing temporary but high level access).
    Without more info about a possible link to an action within the OS or an app it would be hard to say if it is a real concern.
    It seems to refer to a conflict.  It could be that the item is not written for the current OS, is outdated via Upgrades for instance, or written in a way that is now Protected by the way the current OS works.
    Console Messages can be helpful when you can attribute them to specific events such as a Crash Log or the Action in an App matching a Time in the Log (you generally have to be watching).
