Where is my mail on osx mavericks desktop

I have updated to osx Mavericks but some of my mail boxes I have created for saved mail, is gone. Can I by any means find them on my desktop? How?

Try deleting the E-mail account off of your Mac and reconnecting it. I had a similar problem on my iPhone and once I did this, everything was back to normal.

How to set up read receipts in mail on OSX Mavericks

How do you set up read receipts in mail on OSX Mavericks? I've looked under settings for the mail app but can't see anything that I can 'turn on' to get an indication when an email has been read. Thanks for any responses in advance.......

Hi, there.
Unfortunately, there's no such feature on Mail. No version of it has ever had.
Besides that, read receipts are not good at all. It is up to the recipient whether or not to send a receipt. So you will never know if the recipient never read the email or just didn't send a receipt.
Yours.

Unable to view Inbox sub-folders in Mail on OSX Mavericks

Hello,
I'm working with two Exchange accounts that have the same problem. Both accounts have sub-folders underneath the Inbox folder. After upgrading to OSX Mavericks, the sub-folders are no longer visible within Mail. If I go on the web and mark a mail in one of these sub-folders as unread, the unread count on the Inbox increases, however the mail along with the subfolder it is in, are still not visible. Additionally, if I right-click on the Inbox folder and choose "Get Account Info", and switch to "Messages on Server", I can see the sub-folders listed there, the number of messages in it, and the size of the folder. If I click on the folder within this window and choose "Show Messages" it opens a new, blank, Mail window.
Does anyone have any ideas about how to get these folders to show again? I tried rebuilding to Inbox to no avail. I am trying to find a solution that doesn't involve recreating the account in Mail, if possible, as some of the mailboxes I have to deal with are extremely large, and to re-download them all from the Exchange server would take a very long time.
Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to help.

Hi all
Same here!
The folders still show up on my iPad and iPhone AND i can still move emails into the folders. So in the context of "move email" all the folders show up. But as above, no email folders in the main menu of Mail. I am using an Exchange server too and already setup everything fresh from the start but it did not solve the problem. Looks like nobody tested upgrading an existing Exchange/Apple Mail setup to Mavericks...maybe because Exchange is to exotic. ;-)
Hope this gets fixed soon and I hope it raises some new ideas in terms of QA!

Mail seems to know it's there, as you described, but for some reason just doesn't display it. Honestly, it seems like someone just made an oversight and forgot to put the little arrow in to let us expand folders that have sub-folders.

Problem with Gmail "unread mail" in OSX mavericks

Since updating to OSX Mavericks (and I installed all available upgrades/patches as they came out) I have had a problem with getting my Gmail to sync across various devices. I have a macbook air as well as the iMac, ipad and iphone. The problem is that with the two computers, emails received to my gmail account will appear "unread" even if I have previously accessed them on a different computer or device. It is as if Apple Mail is no longer able to differentiate from the Gmail server which emails I have opened and which I have not yet read, and I come home to an inbox full of dozens of messages I have already read and deleted that are sitting in my inbox again so I have to double-delete them. I cannot figure out which setting I need to change in order to correct this - I have never had a problem with this before upgrading the operating system and do not have "leave an unread copy on the server" or some similar setting activated in gmail, to my knowledge. The recenly released mail fix did not help.
thanks in advance for your advice.

Problem with Apple Mail since OSX Mavericks

Hello Folks,
since i've updated my mid-2012 iMac to OSX Mavericks, i have a problem with Apple Mail: When i start the Apple Mail, the program says that it could not connect to the icloud mail server, and that i should enter my icloud passwort. When i do this, everything works fine. But that annoys me, because it worked without any problem under OSX Mountain Lion.
Has anyone an idea what i can do to fix this?
Regards,
Alex

In the iCloud pane of System Preferences, uncheck the box marked Mail and check it again.

HT6030 where is menu bar for mail in OSX maverick?

The menu bar on Mail is missing. I am using Maverick

The Menu Bar is at the top of your screen, as it is for all applications.
You need to click in Mail (so it has focus) to see Mail's menu bar.

Apple mail in OSX Mavericks not saving preferences changes

Earlier today Apple Mail went buggy, refusing to send messages, displaying no email messages in any box, and hanging. I deleted the com.apple.mail directory in an effort to salvage my email. I got the email back, but now Apple Mail will not save changes made in preferences and will not allow me to reinstall MailTags. I have no idea what is going on here. Any help would be most welcome.

I've been having this problem on all my devices since using mavericks. And it's not only with gmail - also with private mail-clients. Looking for a descent fix!!!

Old Entourage is POP and new Mavericks MAIL is IMAP I believe. I don;t know how to export in the forms you mention. Frances

I can't see my Raid (Drobo) on my desktop with OSX Mavericks

Hello,
I just updated to OSX Mavericks. I now have a problem with my RAID array. It doesn't mount on the desktop. I tried updating software, contacting Drobo(out of warranty) verifying and repairing the disk, physically "mounting the disk" in Disk First Aid. I get nothing. In Drobo's program, the disk is functional and healthy. It just won't mount. I didn't have this problem before I installed Mavericks. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Al Harding

found this
With the help of Drobo's technical support who pointed me to this MacRumors thread, I've resolved the issue. It turned out that somehow my drive got set to "invisible", which is a filesystem attribute. I don't think this setting is settable via the Finder, so I'm not sure how it got set like that.
To confirm the issue, I had to install Xcode and then install the command line tools, then run this Terminal command:
GetFileInfo /Volumes/Drobo/
where /Volumes/Drobo/ is the path to the volume in question. This command returns all the attributes set for that volume. If the list of attributes includes a V (capital V), it means that the volume is invisible.
To fix it:
SetFile -a v /Volumes/Drobo/
with a lowercase v, to remove the invisible attribute.
After a reboot, everything was back to normal.
Note: depending on the drive and your permissions, it's possible you will need to run these commands with sudo, although I didn't.

Mail, App Store & Terminal won't open after OSX Mavericks Update

Hey,
Updated to OSX Mavericks yesterday - today Mail started crashing, found a solution but needed to use Terminal - which won't open. I thought OK, I'll reinstall OSX, but can't open the App Store either...
Does anyone know a solution to this one, or have a link to a direct (non App Store) download of OSX Mavericks.
I've tried Safe Boot and didn't help.
Thanks,
Eliot

I went to the Apple Store today and the genius recommended a new install of Mavericks, just do a time machine back up then hold down alt and go to the recovery drive then click reinstall or new install of Mavericks.
Note: This will take a long time it took 3 hours for my machine. When it prompts you to install the back up from time machine I would recommend unchecking the box that asks if you'd like to install with your settings. I have a hunch that what caused this problem in the first place was a corrupted file in the settings. Hope this helps..

Wife and I have separate iOS devices, separate iCloud accounts. But we both want to access mail from the iMac (OSX Mavericks.) Currently only my mail is linked. How to configure so that wife's iCloud mail can be seen on iMac. Simple and explicit please!

My wife and I have separate ioS devices (iOS7) with separate iCloud accounts.
So we access our mail separately on these devices. But we would both like to be able to access mail at the desk top (iMac, OSX Mavericks). Currently only my mail is linked. How do I set up the Mac to allow it to access my wife's e-mail too, either in the same mail inbox or a separate one. Simple instructions please!

If Mail in Mavericks is the same as earlier versions you can select accounts in the sidebar, so that you can either display the inboxes for individual accounts, or the contents of all the account inboxes. (If the accounts don't show click the disclosure triangle next to 'INBOX'). The layout may have changed since the version I have - Snow Leopard - but you should be able to do the same thing.

Where is the option "Store only headlines" in Mail.app on Mavericks?

Where is the option "Store only headlines" in Mail.app on Mavericks? I used to store all messages on gmail servers. Mail.app on Mountain Lion has feature to load only headlines of e-mails from Gmail. Now It's gone and with new OS Mavericks, I've got 10Gb of mail on my Mac locally.

This problem is slowly killing my machine! I 'upgraded' to a better spec machine so I could synch my phone would you believe it. I couldn't synch my phone and my laptop with a cable, that was fankly incredible.
Now I have a new machine and first thing I did was install mavericks, and now mac mail spends all it's time dowloading mail from may mail accounts. I have 4 imap gmail accounts set up and mail is using 56GB on my local disc to store them.
There use to be an option to limit the disc storage I think 5GB would be quite enough to hald the last few months email locally. Question is how do I set that limit in mavericks. Is there some plist I can edit or something.
Looking at the activity window it seems to spend A LOT of time
"updating cache directory"
I don't think I even have 56GB staore on the server, so how is it possible that I have more on the local copy?
