Why does email appear in the draft folder after email is sent

could someone tell me why emails I am sending appear in the draft folder even after the email has been sent and is in the sent folder?

Do you get draft emails every time your write an email, or do you just have a pesky email in drafts? There's a big difference.
If it happens every time, it could be that your email isn't being sent to your recipient. If it happened only once, it's just an incomplete email you haven't sent or deleted yet.
Which is your situation?

Mail remaining in the Draft-Folder after sending

When I write a mail that takes more than 10 minutes, it is automatically saved in the Draft-Folder.
Then, when it has been sent, it remains in the Draft-Folder.
If I relaunch the Mail-program, this same mail is twice present in the Draft-Folder (!!!).
This makes no sense, since the message has been sent.
Is that any new Bug with Mail and IMAP-protocol?

I have the same problem.
When I send an email
- one copy goes to the draft folder an another copy of the email goes to the sent folder.
I believe the copy in the draft folder is a ghost.
I went to my online goggle mail and saw the email was sent.

Why does printer not show in Printer Folder after installation?

     Printer is the original OJ 6500 E709n operating with Windows 7 64-bit.
     Printer had been working well wireless, but began to not work with wireless.
     Reinstalled driver software, and everything installs OK without error. Printer test page prints OK.
     Installation software says that installation was successful, and I click FINISH to end.
     But there is no OJ6500 icon in the Printer folder. There used to be one.
     When I install for use with USB, a printer icon appears like normal.
     What needs to be done to be able to use this printer wireless?
Thanks!

Why does my MBP get the grey screen after backing up to external hard drive???

(firstly, i'm a complete moron on terminal, though i managed to unlock the external HD. i appreciate the simplicity of mac, i.e. a moron in many ways.)
for some bizarre reason, every time i copy files to the external HD, i end up with a lock on the external HD and the dreaded spinning grey screen when i restart the MBP. i've managed to get rid of the grey screen by reinstalling with the snow leopard DVD without formatting, but this is obviously not practical. am i doing something wrong??
the last time i did this, i dragged my "user" files. then i dragged my entire internal HD into a folder created in my external HD. i've done this with my powerbook and older OS without issues, but OS 10.5 and 10.6 don't seem to work without ending up with the spinning grey screen and a lock on the HD.
thanks in advance for your input. (and please keep it simple...)

no, but it's definitely not due to a corrupt external drive. this happened with two different brands of drives. the first time with a lacie, i thought my MBP hard drive was damaged, but it was determined that a reinstall was all it needed. the same thing happened with an OWC. they both work fine. there seems to be some kind of a permission problem which gets screwed up somwhere.

Why does that same photo keep appearing in the edited folder????

Why is that same photo always mysteriously appear in the edited folder whenever a photo is added to camera roll????? If I happen to take a picture on my iPad, then if I go to iPhoto, there is this one stubborn picture that mysteriously appears in the edited folder. When I try to revert it to original so I can get it out from the edit folder, it's not highlighted. So what I do is actually edit it then revert it to original, then it disappears. However if I go back to the iPad camera and take a picture or just save a picture from safari that same stubborn photo reappears in iPhoto edit folder when I launch the app. If that's not a bug, then what is????

Please follow the suggested resolution in this thread

TS3276 Lion mail; sent emails show up in the draft folder as well as the sent folder. Often the draft will appear a day after the email was actually sent

Lion mail
Emails that have been Sent show up in the Draft folder as well as th e Sent folder.
Often they may not show up in Draft folder until the next day.
Is there a correction for this?

no, I only use mac as my incoming and outgoing server.
What I did was un check the draft box in the mail preferences,
and will see if that works. Since I use only the computer for emails
the cloud isnt being used to its max anyway.
Thanks taking time to share

Sending email leaves duplicates in the Draft Folder

When I am sending particularly large email messages, the email gets sent, but for some reason a duplicate of the message gets left in the Drafts Folder. So now I have the same email that I had just sent in the Drafts Folder and in the Sent Folder. So then I have to manually trash the message in the Drafts Folder.
This does not seem right. In the past the message in the Drafts folder has always deleted itself as soon as the email has been sent.

The last one that exhibited this behavior contained two photos that added up to 4.6MB.
But the size factor does not seem to enter in since the messages sailed out as they normally do complete with the Zooom sound that is assigned leaving behind the complete message sitting in both the Sent and Drafts folders. This leaves me with the housecleaning task of selecting the message in the Drafts folder and clicking the trash can.
It should be noted that the last time I did this, the deleted message re-appeared the next day in my Trash as a recovered file. It is like the cat that keeps coming back...

Season pass notice does not always download. It does not appear in the purchased items. I am responding to an email stating 'this week's TV show is ready for download'. Any suggestions?

Been having the same problems all week. And am got a generic, not-at-all-helpful response from my initial inquiry with support, then absolutely no response to my follow-up requests. There seem to be a fair number of people posting this problem, so not sure why we're being ignored.
Was able to eventually download the episodes manually via the 'purchased' link, but it's about 10 more steps than normal.
Also noticed that itunes isn't recognizing my purchases at all, not just season passes. If I go to a page of a show where I buy episodes individually, it doesn't show which episodes I have previously bought like it used to.

When I am writing an email, I get an alert message that says "The message could not be copied or moved to the drafts folder. Writing to the folder failed. To ga

When I am writing an email, I get an alert message that says “The message could not be copied or moved to the drafts folder. Writing to the folder failed. To gain disc space, choose Empty Deleted and choose Compact Folders and try again.”
If I do that, I get a message saying “There was an error copying to the Sent folder,, retry?”
If I retry it sends the uncompleted email. All I can do is keep deleting the message and carry on. Then the whole business might repeat itself.
Help!

Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive. If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
-Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
-Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down. You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
-Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes. Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked. You can close Preferences now.
-Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library. iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
Shouldn't have any more problems...

I have added the Documents folder to the Dock, however when I save a document it doesn't appear in the Documents folder on the Dock, only the Documents folder in the Finder. Is this a quirk, so am I doing something wrong?

I like having my Documents folder on the Dock so I added the Documents folder from the Finder to the Dock. When I save a document to the Documents folder, the saved document appears in the Documents folder from the Finder and not in the Documents folder on the Dock. Why is this happening? And how can I change this?

I have added photos to My Photo Stream on my PC (Windows 7). They appear in the Uploads folder instead. They do not upload to iCloud. Am I doing something wrong?

Unfortunately, photo stream on a PC is iffy at best. Many people have problems getting it to work properly, including myself. A work around would be to use an app like PhotoSync on your PC, which can send photos wirelessly to the camera roll on any of your iOS devices on the same wifi network. Once in the camera roll, you iOS device will be added to your photo stream.
