Why does my iphone5 tell me my mail is using 2.4Gb, despite the inbox being almost empty? I've emptied all the other inboxes and all trash box too.

Using an Iphone5 running IOS version 7.1.2
About to update to verson 8.3 but would like to have more space.
My Mail app says it is occupying 2.4Gb but the inboxes etc  are almost empty.
I have emptied everything including the 'All Trash' but the 2.4GB never changes, just leaving a handful of current emails in my inbox.

Temporarily delete the account from your iPhone, then reset it and add the account back on.  I suspect some prior attachment downloads are stuck in limbo.

    iCloud doesn't give you more storage on your device, it only gives you more storage in iCloud to sync data, store your backups, etc.  If you're running out of space on your iPad you'll have to delete some data off your iPad to free it up, such as syncing some of your music or other media off your iPad. 
    You can check how much free space is available on your iPad by going to Settings>General>Usage and looking at the Available number at the top.

  • Why does it take forever to load mail messages once clicked on on the left

    My mail seems to have trouble loading in the view side of the mail window.  this happens with all the new mail old mail is usually opened immediately.  The New ones just keep showing a loadind icon in the window.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Seems like it is still in the downloading process which may provide some lag time. Do you have slow or limited internet?

  • Why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?

    why does iphoto 11 tell me to update library every time i open it?
    iPhoto '11 OSX 10.8.5
    I open iphoto and I get the message
    "the Photo library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of iPhoto"
    I click upgrade and after a few seconds the photos show fine, the application works correctly.
    then I quit the app. and reopen and i get the same message and the same results.
    this was happening before I did a complete erase of the Macbook Pro and install of Mt Lion
    upgraded from lion.
    only thing thats the same is the computer and the library I restored.
    RT

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • HT5192 why does my phone tell me that after trying to update my software to ios 5.1 that an error has occured

    why does my phone tell me that when after updating ios 5.1 that an error has ocurred,ive tried 3 times and im still getting the same message?

    Call Apple in the morning.
    Possibility could have been you had caps lock on entering your security answer either now or when you set it up from the beginning.
    Apple will help you out and you will be in good shape.
    If you are not into phone calls then try to make an appointment at your local Apple store and they can fix it for you in no time.

  • Why does my itunes tell me they can not find music files on my computer?

    Why does itunes only play 10 sec. of a selected song instead of the 1:30?

    The question in your text is not the question you ask in the topic.  I already posted a response to that one in your other topic.
    It would help if you tell us on which computer you are doing this, and I assume you are using itunes.
    The topic needs to be reposted in the iTunes forum for the system (Mac or PC) you are using, under the correct topic, or you may never get an aswer.

  • Why does my iPad tell me my airport network "cannot be set up by this software"

    why does my iPad tell me my airport network "cannot be set up by this software"?

    You likely have an older version of the AirPort router which is not supported by AirPort Utility for the iPad.
    Check the model number on the bottom....if you have an AirPort Extreme.....or check the model number on the side of the device......if you have an AirPort Express.
    Post back with that model number.

  • Why does my iphone tell me to re-buy purchased items that i purchased already and that i want to redownload them back onto my iphone

         My iphone tells me that i have to re-buy purchased items that i used to have on my iphone. For example, i downloaded a song and i deleted it off my iphone, but when i wanted to download it back onto my iphone it told me to buy it when i purchased it days ago. The problem is that i want to download purchased items i downloaded in the past but it says for me to repay for it and so i dont know if i was ripped off or not. the cause of this problem was that my iphone synced to another iphone from itunes and got everything from the other iphone and i lost all my music and contacts. Thus, i tried to redownload all my music back on and it wouldn't let me from the itunes store. is ther a solution to this problem?

    You can only redownload using the Apple store id you purchased the items under

  • What, exactly, are 'encoded assets'? Why does removing them resolve problems? How can they be avoided in the first place?

    What, exactly, are 'encoded assets'? Why does removing them resolve problems? How can they be avoided in the first place?

    As I understand it, encoding fomats your digital video clips and photos (assets) into Standard DVD mp2 format so that it can be burned to a DVD.  If there has been an error in the encoding process, then you remove the old encoded assets and start over.  There are numberous reasons why there can be errors in the encoding process.

    Hello,
    Same problem for me. Really a pain in the *** this bug ! Does Apple fixed it. I'm really suprised noone reports this problem  and apple does not adress this.
    Because of that, I cannot give it anymore to children because it hurts the view. Really a shame on the part of apple !

  • Why does a standalone program created in Labview 8.5 try connecting to the internet when the program only reads data through the serial port? Firewalls object to progams that contact the internet without permission.

    why does a standalone program created in Labview 8.5 try connecting to the internet when the program only reads data through the serial port? Firewalls object to progams that contact the internet without permission.
    The created program is not performing a command I have written when it tries to connect to the internet, it must be Labview that is doing it. How do I stop this from happening? 
    Any help would be very appreciated.

    It looks that way..
    "When LabVIEW starts it contacts the service
    locator to removes all services for itself. This request is triggering
    the firewall.This is done in case there were services that were not
    unregistered the last time LabVIEW executed- for example from VIs that
    didn't clean up after themselves"
    This is not yet fixed in LV2009.
