Why is it that after I delete my e-mails the next time I log on they are all back? Sometimes as many as the last fourty or fifty show up again.

This has only occurred since the last update. I delete my e-mails. The next time I log on all the e-mails I had deleted the last time are all back in the inbox. I then have to delete them all a second time before they are gone for good. This is very annoying since it can often be as many as fifty or sixty e-mails at a time. How can I fix this?

Are you talking about the Inbox?
deleted emails can reappear where a folder may have some corruption. This is usually due to keeping too many emails in the Inbox and not compacting on a regular basis.
Make a copy of any emails in that folder which you do not want to lose; perhaps store them in Local Folders.
then delete the emails.
then compact the folder. - right click on folder and select 'Compact'.
If you lost any emails due to compacting, then do not worry because you saved a copy of the ones you wanted to keep in Local folders, so you can move them back.
Select the 'Deleted' folder, right click on folder and choose to 'Empty Deleted'.
then right click on Deleted folder and select 'Compact'.
Emails should now be deleted.
Note: the Inbox should be used as an Inbox and not a general storage.
Please read helpful information on how to maintain a healthy Thunderbird and also read information on compacting, what it does and why it is important.

  • When i delete conversations on my iphone 4S, my messages wont send after that. Then when i restart my phone they are all back. How can i fi this?

    When i delete my conversations on my iphone 4s my messages will not send, then i restart my phone and yhe are all back, what can i do about this?

    Same way it works with any computer...when you delete something, the data isn't actually deleted, just the pointers to the data. As you use your device, the data gets overwritten, since the iOS views it as "free" space..
    If you want the data truly gone, you need to erase your phone. Same way it works on any computer.

  • WHY is  it that when I download photos and videos from my iphone to my computer they are rotated?

    WHY is it that when I download photos & videos from my iphone to my computer, they are rotated?

    Because the picture/video viewer you're using is not clever enough to respect the orientation tag embedded in iPhone video and image files so it 'knows' which way up you were holding the phone when you shot the photo or video.
    Try a better image/video viewer or computer OS.

  • I had a 3rd Gen iPad. I did not get the pictures off of it. They are all in iCloud, I can not find out for the life of me how to get them off of iCloud without the iPad that I do not have anymore, I sold it. Any help would be epic. Thank you in advance!

    I have an iPhone 5 now that is also in my iCloud, yet it won't let me access the iPad iCloud.
    I would love to have all the pictures from the iPad iCloud backup.

    Really?? No one knows??  
    This is an Apple support forum is it not?
    If anyone can at least point me in the right direction that would be great!!

    If this does not work, use iTunes to set it back to factory settings, which would also install the latest software:

    With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

    Why is it that after upgrading to IOS 6, I could not retreive my full list of my purchased applications & ganes list in the app store now !!!!
    Whenever I try to tab my purchased in the update feature of app store; not only does the long list of my previous purchases do not showed up like in IOS 5 do but after a while it just prompt out to the main home page. I tried this for both my 3GS and 4GS too and both have the same problem. APPLE INC please rectify this serious problem as soon as possible.

    Did you read your other posted question, that has been answered.

  • Everytime I open FFox I find over 400 cookies on my machine despite clearing history, deleting them etc - please help me eliminate them I think they are killing my computer!

    Thank you for the opportunity to submit this query and hurray for the volunteers who will tackle it! Thank you!
    on opening FFox, I routinely run Tools/View Cookies and clear my Error Console. I INVARIABLY find over 400 cookie directories arranged in two "lists". I clear them with Delete All Cookies and carry on.
    I have tried limiting cookie access (ie: no 3rd party), and I have cleared my History including Cookies, BUT everytime I open FFox, they are all back!
    I have even installed a Mozilla Cookie Killer plug-in, but though it may work, the little buggers are back the very next time I open FFox.
    I believe their presence is seriously degrading my old but much loved Dell Inspiron 6400's performance and I would dearly love to be able to remove them permanently.
    If you could help I would be very grateful.
    Cheers and best wishes,

    That's going to be a ridiculous waste of money and energy.
    First of all, the current ATI drivers don't support multiple GPUs, so at the moment even a single 4870X2 would be only a 'normal' 4870 (which is quite a speed beast already). GFX drivers evolve rapidly, so things might look different next month, but when it comes to Linux and hardware there's one Golden Rule: stay away from the newest stuff and wait for proper support to get coded.
    I also wonder what power supply could possibly cope with the differences between idle and full load; that's way beyond 400W. But then, I'm one of those "quiet&green" types where >100W idle is already a bit much.
    I kind of understand that you want to get it done and not worry about hardware for the next 10 years or so, but that's simply not how the hardware world works and never did. At least not for the average consumer.

  • When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?

    When I edit a song in itunes (i.e change the year) on purchased songs, the next time I return to itunes, the information has reverted back to the original information. How can I change that?
    When I purchase ITunes music, and it is a song from a Greatest Hits album, the Year of the song shows the year the CD was released and not the year the song was released (i.e. a song may be from 1986, but the Greatest Hits album was released in 1999, so my songs in ITunes show 1999).    So, I go into each of those songs and change it to the year that I want to be displayed. As long as I don't exit out of ITunes, it will show the year that I changed it to (i.e. the 1986 year in this case). But if I exit out of ITunes and then return to ITunes, the year reverts back to 1999. The same happens if I change the genre of a song from, say 'Pop' to 'Alternative', it will revert back the next time I log in.
    Oddly enough, as soon as I right-click on that song to change it back, the year/genre that I had entered returns.
    How can I make it so my changes are permanently displayed as I want them?  This is pretty annoying when I try to find a song on my Ipod under a certain genre, but it doesn't appear in that genre because the incorrect information gets synched to the Ipod.

    Make sure that these two options in Edit > Preferences > Store are turned off:
    Then exit iTunes and open it up again.  Your metadata entries should then be persistent - with these options checked iTunes will be comparing what you have with the information held in the iTunes Store, and will overwrite with the latter for Store purchases (and if you have iTunes Match).  If you have any iOS devices you should also turn off Show All Music under Settings > Music.

  • I have multiple iphones at my business that we take photos with and upload to one icloud account.  Is there anyway to tell the difference between the phones?  I tried the info tab but they are all iphone 4's?

    I have multiple iphones at my business that we take photos with they are all uploaded to the same icloud account.  Is there anyway to tell which phone the photo came from?  The info tab doesn't help because they are all iphone 4's.

    NNot with the regular MY Photo Stream. You could use individual Shared Photo Streams instead for each iPhone, if the iOS versions support shared streams. upload to a shared stream is not automatic however. You will have to share them manually.

  • Sometimes after creating an event folder on iPhoto, all my pictures in that event will be gone the next time I open iPhoto. Why is this happening? Is there a way to retrieve the missing photos?

    Sometimes after creating an event folder on iPhoto, all my pictures in that event will be gone the next time I open iPhoto. Why is this happening? Is there a way to retrieve the missing photos?
    Most events I make on iphoto will still be there the next time I open iPhoto, while other event FOLDERS will be there, but pictures in it gone.

    What version of iPhoto? Assuming 09 or later:
    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.

  • Why is it that when I delete bookmarks or favorites, they are also deleted from my husband phone?, why is it that when I delete bookmarks or favorites, they are also deleted from my husband phone?

    Why is it that when I delete bookmarkes or favorites, they are also deleted from my husbands phone?

    Because you set both of them up using the same Apple ID for the iCloud account. Don't do that. You should each have your own iCloud account, even if you want to share an Apple ID for apps and music. Odds are, you are both receiving iMessages intended for the other as well.

  • Why is it that when I delete a song off my 4th generation I touch it will not allow me to add it again. I manage my music manually (no syncing). I can add a new song, but as soon as I delete it on my I touch, I can't put it back on.

    I never heard of that problem before. I I can suggest is the stand fixes:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
