Workaround to No "Select All" Functionality in Phone Mail App?
Has anyone come up with a workaround to the lack of a "select all" option in the iPhone Mail app? Right now, if you are presented with a long list of unread messages, your options are to either read each and every one of them individually, or delete them individually. I was wondering if anyone had come up with either a workaround, or solution provider, in this area. Yes, I have submitted the suggestion to Apple to include this functionality in the future. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Yes, which takes seconds. Or after reading a message you want to delete, delete it then with a delete selection - trash can icon at the bottom of the message.
With a significant number of habitual whiners here, I can see the number increase if Apple includes a select and delete all option for any other mailbox except for an account's Trash mailbox that is available now which some would inevitably do unintentionally by accident and then complain - how could Apple do this - I lost all my Inbox messages that I didn't want deleted.

I posted the suggestion enhancement to Apple via the "Submit Feedback" option this evening, I wouldn't hold my breath but with no apps or workarounds out there, it's really up to Apple to step up and provide this basic albeit necessary functionality. I really can't be the ONLY Mail user that goes through manually deleting a slew of emails messages every other day, it's ridiculous!

Select all functionality in a check box
Hi all
I am using forms 6i
I have a tabular block with a check box
i want to have the functionality wherein the user can select all the records of the form by a single click or any other
way
basically if the user wants to select all the records he does not have to click all the records individually same for deselect
Please let me know if we can do this
thanksHai,
create a button to select all, and write this code in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger.
DECLARE
Num_Total_Records NUMBER;
Num_Loop_I NUMBER;
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('<block_name>');
LAST_RECORD;
Num_Total_Records := TO_NUMBER(NAME_IN('SYSTEM.CURSOR_RECORD'));
FIRST_RECORD;
FOR Num_Loop_I IN 1..Num_Total_Records LOOP
:<block_name>.<check_name> := 1;
NEXT_RECORD;
END LOOP;
END;

Manu.

Hi I upgraded to Ios version 7.0.3, I use the Hebrew language.
I have a problem when I select all the Hebrew alphabet, no matter where (it's sms, email, Internet, all applications on the device, and the device itself, search, contacts, calendar).
The device closes the application, and then I open the application and has no caption or a site that was supposed to be before closing as if I started now.
The problem occurs even when I write in the search for the problem device does re-lighting the device as if you just turned on the device (no open applications for example).
It only happens in Hebrew only, if there are English and Hebrew together this glitch does not appear.
I tried other languages English Chinese Russian Indian, they respond well to highlight the text individually without the Hebrew language.
It happened in the previous version 7.0.0.
In older versions it never happened and working already more than a year.
This problem also appears in iPhone 4 and iPad 2 on the same Apple id I have iPhone and same version id of the fault doesn't exist and thought at first it was a sugary but all applications are deleted almost everything and the problem still exists.If you have any questions, ideas I would love to hear from you.
English is not my speech but my second language.
All I write is translation so if there is anything you don't understand, sorry in advance.
If there is a mistake in translation, please correct me so I can learn from my mistakes.
Thank you all. -

Disabling "Select all" functionality in IWDTable
Hi Experts,
I have a UI element IWDTable at design time. On the UI there is a arrow to allow the user to
"Select all" and "Deselect all" rows.
With the new UI guidelines it should not be visible.
Is there any designtime property to disable it ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
HarishHi,
You have not mentioned about the UI element. Well if the arrow is a button then it must be having visible property. Set it to None.
Or right click on the arrow in layout tab select properties, go to visible property of the UI and make it as None.
thanks & regards,

"Select Conversation" in Yosemite's Mail.app
Having just upgraded to Yosemite, I'm finding that Shift-Command-K no longer selects all e-mails in a conversation in Yosemite, as it did in Mavericks (it now does absolutely nothing).
Is there a new command in Yosemite?Yeah, I really relied on this to move groups of messages to particular folders, I've no idea how to make that happen now. Surely I don't have to move them all one by one?
If I go to View > Organize by Conversation all messages in a particular conversation will collapse under one which, if I select and move, will move the whole conversation to another folder. However, that's pretty inconvenient for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is that there isn't a keyboard shortcut, and I don't want conversations to automatically group that way, I want them chronologically in my inbox and not grouped into conversations.
What's really odd is that under View > Select there's "All Messages in this Conversation Shift-Cmd-K" but it's grayed out. Why grayed out? Why is this not functional? It's there, but...? -
Is there a way to remove Exchange global address list from phone/Mail app?
I have an iPhone 5 running iOS 7.0.3. Wondering if there is a way I can prevent an Exchange global address list from loading when I compose a message. I am only syncing Mail - not contacts or calendars. Also tried dropping and re-adding account to see if that did anything. This is a personal phone connected to company's Exchange account (legitimately) - I would like to reduce the chance that I incorrectly email a company employee from my personal account when composing a message.
That is what I expected Chris, but to answer your question - yes. I have two accounts setup with the Mail app - Gmail and Exchange. Gmail is the default even. When I am in the Gmail account, compose a new message, just typing "john" for example, brings up most recently used john's first, then all the Johns in my company. I really would prefer not to even have those names populate. Not sure if that can be prevented without dropping the Exchange mail account altogether. That is my question - and thank you for your reply.

How to default to "All Inboxes" when opening Mail app
I just upgraded to a iPhone 5s, but I was having this issue also when I was using my 4s. I never had problems until I upgraded to iOS7. I routinely get mail to all my email accounts and would prefer that when I open the mail app, that it opens to "all inboxes" first rather than the inbox of the first account listed. A little history....
4s - my default email account was set to Gmail, but when launching the mail app, it ALWAYS opened to the inbox of my first account listed...Exchange.
5s - I have deleted the Exchange account, but the mail app continues to open in the inbox of the first account listed, which happens to be my default account...Gmail.
When I shut down the mail app, I ALWAYS go back to the "All Inboxes" screen, but when I relaunch mail, it continues to open in the inbox of the the first account listed.
I've read through other threads of people having this same issue, but any fixes mentioned seem to be 2011 or earlier. So obviously, this has been happening for some time on other versions of iOS. Is there a real, CURRENT, fix to this issue?Allan,
Yes, you are correct in everything you said. I should have been more detailed. My apologies.
I want my mail app to open to this screen, which it used to. I was referring to it by the incorrect name. Not all inboxes but to all my mailboxes screen (see image). Leaving the app open on this screen, moving to another app, and then returning to the mail app is fine. However, when I close mail and relaunch, it will open to the inbox of the first account listed, which is Gmail.
I'd like to add, Allan, that you acutally made me away of a possible solution to this issue if no true fix isn't available. I like this screen because I get to see how many messages are in which account and prioritize accordingly. However, I could do as you suggested and keep my mail open to "all inboxes". I see all my mail, but I can still decide which messages to prioritize without reading them. It isn't THE solution I was looking for, but is A solution until Apple fixes it. Thanks!

Block the Windows Phone Mail App on 8.1
Hi Guys
I have asked this question in the Windows Phone thread, but need to find the answer as quick as possible.
Is there a way to block Users using the Mail app for personal mail on their corporate phones managed by Microsoft Intune?
I need to allow users access to the store using their LiveID so that they can download Lync etc. But it seems it creates a Mail App with their mail although app deny rules are in place for anything not whitelisted.
thanks in advance
NNThanks Jon.
I am in a catch 22 at the minute if I have this correct. Please do let me know if I am on the wrong track.
Blocking LiveIDs means blocking Store access; meaning deeplinks dont work, nor does sideloading apps like Lync. Allowing LiveIDs gives access to download apps but seems to allow personal mail, although I can deny apps it does not seem to deny personal mail.Now
LiveIDs on a whole need to disabled, but it has got me wondering about the feature with personal mail.
If I can deny personal mail, I can have Store access restricted by applisting using deeplinks for ease and no personal information/mail will be available, a happy medium.
I have heard that new identity features are coming later this year (which you also posted on), but for now I need to find closest to this standard as possible.
The one thing I am not overly familiar with yet is the OMA features and whether that has the ability to block this feature via a string?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

IOS4 reloads and repopulates all emails when entering Mail app
I'm having similar, but somewhat different issues with my email since updating to ios4 on my 3GS. I haven't been able to find others with the exact same problem, hence the new thread.
Here is the issue:
Since upgrading, every now and then randomly, when I enter the mail program, it will start to _re-populate/re-load all of my emails from scratch_, as if my 2 email accounts were just created and I am going into it for the first time. I will see "downloading 400 messages" (I set it to 200 maximum for my 2 email accounts). My 2 email accounts are set up as enterprise -- one is Gmail Enterprise and one is my work account.
Needless to say, this is not only a HUGE battery drain but populating 400 messages is painfully slow not only on WIFI, but can completely cripple the phone on 3G. It takes about 20 minutes EACH TIME for all of my folders/inboxes to reload and populate with all of my emails, finish indexing and and threading.
This is a MAJOR issue, Apple. Email is at the heart of how I, and most people these days, communicate with friends and coworkers.
Is anyone else experiencing this?YES, YES, YES, TomLapple! I have been having the EXACT same problem as you! My phone and mail worked just perfectly fine until Apple decided that it needed to update the software. Everything has just gone south since I've upgraded.
I have set up my work email on my iPhone 3G and since the update, it downloads literally EVERY SINGLE EMAIL in my account - including emails that I started receiving since July 2007 when I first started working for the company. Yes, I said 2007. That means that anytime I open up my mail on my iPhone, it says that there are more than 4,000 emails to be downloaded. I have actually (stupidly) started the process of trying to download and delete them all several times. A couple of times I've deleted them down to 2,000 and today managed to get down to around 900. What happens? For some strange reason, the phone appears to stall and blinks off, going straight to the black screen with the silver apple. When the phone restarts again, I go back to my email and what is waiting for me but all 4,000+ emails. I am so frustrated I want to pull my hair out. Does anyone have any idea how to stop this problem? Many people have said that restoring the phone does nothing to help.
I've also noticed that my battery can no longer take me through the day. That really upsets me because I could charge once in the morning and it would be fine until I got home that evening. Now the battery is drained within hours, even with me doing exactly what I've been doing in the past. Call me crazy, but I almost feel as though Apple is deliberately making this hard for everyone so they'll want to upgrade to the iPhone 4. Apple, MAKE SOME PATCHES TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!! -

'select all' in pages 'shapes' does not work
When drawing 2-D floor plans using Pages / Shapes......the 'Select All' function does not work !
I am uisng Mountain Lion, v 10.8.3
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks
SheldonHi Sheldon,
Is your document based on a Page Layout Template?
In Pages, a floor plan is more suited to a Page Layout document (which mimics a drawing app) rather than a Word Processing document.
Here is a document that I created with Template Chooser > Page Layout > Blank.
I added some Shapes and Text Boxes.
'Select All' (command a) selected everything:
I hope this helps.

Ian.
