OS X V10.7 Lion :: IMAP Gmail Folders Do Not Sync

Apr 26, 2012

Read boards, tried help, tried everything.  Gmail IMAP account will only synch inbox. ALL other folders do not appear in Mail 5.2 / Lion 10.7.  In fact, MAIL doesn't even appear in the list of applications here.  Am at a HUGE loss. I have checked Google settings. They are all set to show and show online just fine. I need this for work, so if this cannot be solved, I need to go back to a PC solution.  Nothing should be this complicated. 

Info:
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.3), MAIL 5.2

OS X :: Gmail IMAP Sync With Apple Mail 3.6 Vs 4.0

Feb 19, 2010

for those of you using gmail with imap know, read and unread status's do not update for some reason w/out turning mail off then back on. i recently purchased a new (to me) intel macbook with snow leopard 10.6 and used mobileme to sync my mail accounts. what i noticed to my pleasant surprise is that my iphone, macbook, and gmail are all in perfect sync, BUT the g4 powermac with leopard and apple mail 3.6 still has a problem. is there any updates coming out, i find it hard to believe with the leopard updates still coming out they still haven't addressed this issue. are those of you with snow leopard experiencing the same perfect syncs with gmail read/unread status?

Applications :: Apple Mail Work With Gmail IMAP Account 8 Gig And 80 Folders?

Jul 1, 2010

Any Users of Apple Mail with HUGE Gmail IMAP accounts? I'm switching to Apple Mail and am wondering if it will work with a Gmail IMAP account of 8 GIG and 80 folders? Is this even worth trying to setup or will it just crash? 1. Will it freak out during sync and give me the "too many simultaneous connections" error? 2. Is it fast enough with such a huge IMAP folder or does it crawl?

Software :: Configuring Gmail IMAP Labels / Folders On IPhone & Apple Mail 3.0

Apr 11, 2008

I am having a very difficult time setting up my Google apps IMAP e-mail account to work correctly with Apple Mail 3.0, as well as with my Apple iPhone, and I was hoping that somebody could please help me get this figured out once and for all. I have followed all of the Google apps IMAP e-mail setup instructions to properly configure your IMAP e-mail clients, but despite this I am still having problems getting everything working properly. I'm currently using an iPhone with firmware version 1.1.4, and I have manually configured my Gmail account on my phone. I mention this because Google has clearly specified that there are different instructions for handling the proper deletion/archiving of e-mail messages depending on which version of the firmware you are using. My main problem has to do with properly mapping my IMAP labels, with the corresponding Apple Mail 3.0 folders and the folders on my iPhone. I havve searched for the answer to my questions repeatedly on the Internet, but most of the articles and blog posts that I have find that describe the the proper methods of setting things up correctly were either originally posted before the recent Gmail IMAP implementation, or before Gmail version 2.0 became available (or before things changed with version 1.1 .3 of the iPhone firmware). Needless to say, it's been difficult to find a relevant article that applies to the current scenario under which I am trying to set things up.......

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Mail Is Missing Gmail Label Folders And Labeled Messages

Mar 31, 2012

I've got a bunch of client folders and subfolders (labels on gmail).  I'm trying to switch to mac in the office and set up an imap account.  In the last hour searching the archives here, the subfolders in the account have appeared, disappeared, back and forth.  Right now they're gone.  They have never had any of the messages in them on the mac.  There is no little triangle to turn. 

Here's what I have done so far:

- set the folders to show in IMAP

- verified the folders/labels and their contents are on the server, my pc, my iphone

- completely deleted and recreated the account in Mail and System Preferences 3 times

- they also don't show in the [Gmail] folder down below

- let it completely sync overnight last night (problem existed yesterday too)

Info:MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Applications :: Using Mail And Gmail IMAP?

Sep 29, 2010

I had a question. Is there a way to use Gmail's IMAP with Apple Mail and configure it so that when the message is deleted on Gmail, It is not deleted in Apple Mail. I have wanted to convert to IMAP for a while but was always concerned with the possibility of Gmail servers accidentally deleting all of my emails and then would in turn delete all of them on my computer and I would have no backup copies of my emails anymore. I like to archive my emails but I like the performance of receiving emails thru IMAP over POP.

Applications :: Using Gmail IMAP For Mac Mail?

Oct 3, 2009

I was wondering if there is a way to configure Gmail IMAP for Mac Mail in such a way that I only get the new message (don't download whatever I have already), and when I press archive, it deletes them from my computer but saves them in Gmail?

Basically, my Gmail account is already around 6GB and I don't really want to have all of that on my hard drive

OS X Mavericks :: Converting POP To IMAP For Gmail

Sep 1, 2014

I've been using the Apple Mail app for many years, to access gmail. I almost never access gmail with a browser. But the gmail account is a POP account, which, now that I have an iPhone, is pretty frustrating. 

I understand how to convert the gmail account (disable account on Mac, change account type at Google website, create new IMAP account on Mac). But this will sync my Mac to the mail Google now has. And since I've been managing the whole account from the Mac, and email deletions on the Mac have no effect on Gmail, Gmail has vast amounts of mail that I've deleted from the Mac.  How do I switch to IMAP and get the server to match what's on my Mac?

MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.1)

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Keeping Two Folders In Sync On Macbook Pro?

May 2, 2012

i dont like keeping important files exclusively in the dropbox folder ... i rather keep them on my macbook pro's HD and so backed up to time machine. 

this way, if dropbox were to suddenly become kaput one day, my important files are still with me, not lost forever just because they were exclusively in the cloud. ( i tested this ... i delete a file when in the dropbox web site, it removes it instantly from the dropbox foler on the laptop.) 

however, i like keeping a current copy in the dropbox folder, so that i can access the current version on my iphone / ipad. 

what i do now is copy the up-dated files every evening into the dropbox folder .... this way i meet both the objectives. 

is there anyway i could keep the two folders in sync but only one way ... i change a file on my HD , it automatically changes in the dropbox folder too . however, if a file is changed in the dropbox folder ( read deleted on dropbox servers by some mishap) the original file on the laptop remains untouched.

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

OS X :: Configuring Mail.app With Gmail IMAP Account?

Oct 21, 2010

I just configured my Gmail IMAP account in Mail.app. In the Settings > Labels section of Gmail, I unselected the "All Mail" label. In Mail.app, I chose the Gmail > Trash mailbox and then "Use this mailbox for Trash" from the Mailbox menu, and did the same for Spam and Drafts.

Now there are no mailboxes listed in the Gmail mailbox, but it still appears there at the top of the mailbox list with a little triangle next to it. When I click on the triangle to expand, there's nothing in there - but the mailbox won't go away. It's an off-white color whereas all the other mailboxes are the standard bluish color.

Applications :: How To Sent Items In GMail And Mail/IMAP

Jul 2, 2008

but I end up with sent items in my label/folders at least when I reply. So, for example, if I label an email "important" it ends up in an "important" folder. But if I reply, then the sent item also shows up in that folder within Mail. I know that this results from Gmail's use of labels rather than folders. It's not a problem in the Gmail/webmail interface because of the threaded display. But what I'd like to do is set a filter within gmail that basically strips any sent mail of all other labels so that when working within Mail I don't get the sent items showing up in the inbox or labels/folders.

OS X :: Unable To Use Apple Mail With Gmail IMAP

Feb 6, 2009

I'm trying to use Apple Mail with a Gmail IMAP account but I'm about to give up. I used exactly the same settings suggested on the gmail site but the service works very bad. Messages take forever to download, often I click on them and the preview window starts spinning. It also hangs frequently while synching or caching and I have to do a force quit. Is somebody using this in a profitable way?

OS X :: Mail Setup With IMAP Gmail Never Updates

Aug 19, 2009

First of all, it's set up with IMAP Gmail and if I quit and restart it, it syncs with Gmails servers and respects what I've read, deleted and sent from other places (such as my iPhone), but won't do that while the application is open. If I leave it open all the time, it never updates. What up wit' dat? Secondly, I've emptied out the Inbox into another mailbox called 'Old Unsorted' which I'm filing away bit by bit, so that the Inbox could remain fairly empty most of the time, ideally to speed it up a bit. But when I open the application, and indeed even when it's sitting idle, the title at the top of the window says "Inbox (4294956420 messages)" when in fact there's about 7 in there. If I delete one, the total goes down by 1, so what's going on? Also it rarely ever BINGs when I get new Mail these days. Occasionally it does, but not often. System is totally up to date, Software Update-wise.

OS X :: Apple Mail 4 (GMAIL / IMAP) With GrowlMail

Jul 15, 2010

Installed Growl and GrowlMail today. Anyway, my gmail is configured with custom labels, which IMAP detects as "folders". For example, any time my gmail account gets a facebook mail, it labels the message as "Facebook". This is great, but GrowlMail shows TWO Growl messages. One for the message coming into "Inbox" and another to the message coming into the "Facebook" folder. This is my theory. Otherwise, I have no idea why I'm seeing multiple Growl alerts for emails that are moved/labeled.

Software :: Mail For Leopard - Setting Up IMAP For Gmail

Jun 12, 2008

I have an issue with setting up my Gmail account for IMAP. I followed all of the instructions of Google's website, but I am having an issue with setting up the Spam. Reading Google's site it says that when I delete Spam from [Gmail]/Spam that the e-mail should be deleted; however the e-mail appears instead in [Gmail]/All Mail. This also happens if I delete something from [Gmail]/Deleted. My question is how can I change my settings so that (1) the e-mail/spam is permanently deleted or (2) at sent ONLY to the trash and not [Gmail]/All Mail? This also occurs on my iPhone, but I have the mail accounts synced between my phone and computer do if I fixed one I fix the other.

Applications :: How To Remove Gmail IMAP Folder From Mail App

Oct 17, 2009

I am currently using a Gmail IMAP setup in Mail.app. Everything is working great, and with a Gmail Labs feature called Advanced IMAP Settings, I have hidden all of the main Gmail folders, like All Mail and Starred. I've already integrated folders like Sent and Trash with Mail.app's mailboxes.

Because of these, the [Gmail] folder in my account is completely empty. I now wish to remove it from the sidebar, since I don't need it there. How can I accomplish this?

Applications :: Gmail - Apple Mail - IMAP - Can't See Messages

Feb 1, 2010

I have my Apple Mail configured for use with my Gmail IMAP account but I have a problem. From the Apple Mail app, I can not see messages that were sent while in the web version of Gmail. To me, if I have it configured via IMAP, anything I do on my phone, I should see on my mac. Anything I do on my mac, I should see anywhere from the web app. Am I doing something wrong? Can YOU see messages you sent through the web portal, on your Apple Mail app?
