After being quite hesitant on installing Mavericks, I upgraded my MacBook and my iMac. However: all my mail stored in the smart mailboxes is unaccessible. This is a real disaster.
How do I get my mail archive back...

iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
I have just installed Maverick. Mail does not display my Smart Mailboxes. The contents of the boxes are there as long as I can remember what I named the boxes. It seems that I have to search for the Smart Boxes by name and then transfer all the contents into a new Smart Mailbox of the same name. How to recover the Smart Mailbox before I go through another self defined process?

I have set a couple up and the correct mails go to the correct smart mailbox, but they also remain in my inbox. Also when i tried deleting them from the inbox they were also deleted from the smart mailbox.
Am I doing something wrong, or is that just how it works? I'm just trying to have them be automatically moved to the desired smart mailbox and not in inbox.
i just started using Mail 4.2 on OS X 10.6.3. Every so often, I forward email that I receive at work on my Lotus Notes email account. Especially, my payroll information. I created a Smart Mailbox with the rule that looks for consistent string in the subject line. The original email is in the Inbox, but it does not appear in the Smart Mailbox I created.
I must be doing something wrong. I've googled, I've looked in Apple Support, I searched here. I don't see the answer to my question.
Any help is appreciated.
is there any way i can make a mailbox that says say
cointains any of these - bla bla bla
but does not cointiain any of these - alb alb alb
?
Some of my friends use Rules in mail to assign certain e-mails to certain mailboxes and others prefer using smart mailboxes.
Which one do you use and why?
Hi all,
I'm trying to organize my mail by sender (if anyone has better organizational ideas other than deleting mail, let me know).
Right now, I have rules so all new emails are directed towards various inboxes (family, friends, etc.). However, this means I need to go to a bunch of different folders to read my email.
Is there a way to set up a rule so that mail gets routed according to email address after being read? I just want to go to my primary inbox, read a message and have it routed accordingly. I feel like I might be missing something very basic here...
Any help would be appreciated. In case you can't tell, I'm new to the world of mac. Now that I don't spend all my time fighting with a pc, I actually have time to try and organize my life...
Hey all,
I was wondering if it was possible to have e-mails go ONLY to your smart mailboxes. In other words, is there a way have the inbox only show mail that is not in the smart mailboxes?
Thanks!
Currently, I read that moving to iCloud will delete all of my Smart Mailboxes. I have about 40 of them and I own a business and this feature helps me organize my emails. I haven't moved to iCloud for this reason. They say the deadline is June 30th. Is there any way that Apple will leave this feature in once I move to iCloud?

On one of my iMacs (and not the other), my smart mailboxes disappeared after upgrading to iCloud. How do I get these back?

View 3 Replies View RelatedA few minutes ago I realised that many of my (many dozens of) Smart Mailboxes in Apple Mail (v4.5) have become corrupted. That is, they all have the same name and have all lost their selection criteria -- putting each one in 'edit' mode, I see that each simply has three selection conditions, all of which are empty. I have a huge backstore of email and use smart mailboxes to organise it all (by client, by job number, etc) in conjunction with MailTags. The MailTags data seems to be intact, so I don't think that's the problem (besides, some of my smart mailboxes that do not draw upon any MailTags-generated meta data are also affected).
I have tried restoring the smartmailboxes.plist file from TimeMachine (from a date 2 weeks ago -- and to the best of my knowledge my smart mailboxes were all intact last night).

I have added a new mailbox called archive in mail and selected "On My Mac". I was expecting that it would show up in my sidebar under "On My Mac", but nothing shows.
I tried recreating the mailbox and I get an error that it already exists.
I am not syncing with iCloud so I know that is not the issue.
How do I get "On My Mac" mailboxes to show in the app?

I have VIPs, Flagged, Drafts, Sent, Junk, Trash and Archive listed below Inboxes. Can I hide some of these and still see Inboxes and "On my mac" folders?

Since using Maverick, my apple mail is showing all my client folders (mailboxes under my email address) in junk as well (that's 62 folders in two locations). This problem is only appearing on my computer, junk is empty on my iphone? Clients are having mail bounce back to them when they send me an attachment. My trash is empty and my inbox only has a few emails in it.

I've lost the 'Touched Today' menu item from Finder. It's a 'smart' folder, I know, but I'm not sure exactly how it was set up. Also, if you're an expert on these 'smart' folders, why do I sometimes find today's items at the bottom of the list in the 'unknown date' section? Is there a set of useful 'smart' folders somewhere?

I have recently installed Trend Micro Smart surfing with serial number starting with TCEF. I am currently running my mac book pro on OSX Maverics Version 10.9.4. As soon as I installed the software, I got the error message that the software is not compatible with this version of OS. I went to applications and selected Trend Micro Smart surfing and moved it to trash and also emptied the trash. After this my laptop is rebooting frequently. I even went to safe mode and then into
system preferences ---> users and groups---> Login items and found nothing related to Trend Micro smart surfing. I have also tried to reinstall max osx and still having reboot issue. I have a lot of data and I am afraid I will loose this.

I currently have Safari on my desktop. I never had this problem, but when I use my URL bar and press enter to direct to a specific website it suddenly goes away, and I have to keep pressing F6 which is annoying.
View 1 Replies View RelatedRecently upgraded to Yosemite. Multiple times a day, I get the 'ding' that tells me that I have email, and see the little notification appear in the upper right corner of my screen. Then when I go to Mail to check the email... nothing. Not in Junk, Trash, Inbox, or anywhere. A few times I have managed to see who the email was from, and did a search, and it turned up nothing. the messages are not visible in my phone, on iCloud, or on my laptop. I am worried that important messages are disappearing before I can read them. I've rebuilt my mailbox to no avail. If I didn't hear the ding and see the notification appear, I would never even know I was receiving mail. Its not all messages, most get through, but it seems to be happening more and more, I have over 12 gb of storage on iCloud, so that isn't the issue.

I recently bought a 1TB Seagate FreeAgent Pro drive that I have partitioned 14 ways and hooked up via a firewire 400 connection to my eMac G4 1.0GHz running OS X 10.4.11. I use four of the 60GB partitions to store music files in several different folders.
Frequently after I boot up the drive, I open iTunes and it gives me a broken link, saying it can't find such and such a song. I look in the folder where the file should be and it's GONE -- sometimes along with all the other files in the same folder, occasionally with other files still present. (Are they invisible, maybe?) I search for the missing file in the Finder and sure enough it shows up, but as an outline icon with no folder path. I run Disk Utility to verify permissions on the affected disk and it tells me everything is fine. Then the file suddenly shows up properly again and iTunes can recognize it.
When I send an email with a large attachment it is not saved in the sent folder. All other emails are saved in the sent folder. The emails are received by the recipients.
