Cannot delete Apple Mail boxes on "on my Mac": what should I do?

I tried to delete these boxes several times in many different ways, but no matter what I do, they just keep reappearing.

I have 1) clicked and deleted several times; (2) I deleted their through Finder; (3) I've disabled my email accounts and tried to delete the boxes (of which some were successful with apparently); (4) I changed the behavior of the mailbox by the United Nations - by clicking on and then re - clicking deleted emails put in trash box (which some suggested online).

I have no idea what to do next. I have discussions with Apple, but I thought I'd try here to find a solution to this aggravating problem.

Thank you.

OK, I've figured this out.

When I imported the messages from Thunderbird to Apple Mail, I've initially diverted to mbox files. I then imported them in Apple Mail through the import of Apple Mail function. I made the mistake to include the mbox files related to IMAP accounts. After hours of trying to delete it, I tried the above suggestion. I deleted every internet account including iCloud. Then I deleted mailboxes mailbox imported that were related to IMAP accounts. It worked, and recreate the standalone mailboxes are now gone.

  • Shuts off and won't come back on iPad. Just shows the Apple logo. Does that mean and what should I do now?

    When I woke up yesterday morning after charging my ipad I just couldn't turn my ipad until I plugged in the laptop... worked well

    Yet once, I woke up this morning it's the same thing, but now all I see is a dim apple logo and it will turn back not... do not update AFAIK.

    Does that mean and what should I do?

    Try a forced reboot and see if that fixes it. Hold on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.

  • Cannot delete E-mail messages in a single account.

    I use Thunderbird for two accounts, personal and professional. I can delete to find personal Emails. I can delete folders and move folders and fine e-mails from the company to the personal. But I can't delete individual emails from my business account, with the delete, right click key, nothing. However, if I move from my business to my staff, they remove it.

    I have taken steps to troubleshooting (or not):
    -Restart the computer.
    -Desinstalle/reinstalle Thunderbird.
    -Restored to the previous version of Thunderbird.
    -Started without my extensions (just calendar).
    -Restored old backup.
    -Thing of deleting file (where you go to %AppData%, navigate to the Thunderbird folder and delete the file from the Recycle Bin).

    Interestingly, my computer let me to remove Trash and Trash.msf EXCEPT files in the folder for my business account. The .msf file he went without complaint, but the file kept Trash requesting permission from the admin and would not delete. (I'm the only account on my computer.)

    I have had this problem before and tinkered with it long enough to find a solution, but I don't remember what I did. Any help is appreciated. I'm moving the Email files to my staff until I can find a solution.

    I think... that I fixed it?

    I deleted the company file entirely. Then deleted the Windows folder entirely as well as local. Then open Thunderbird and rebuilt from scratch account (after saving my emails to the personal account, of course). And I made sure to check "empty trash folder on exit" (which I had not seen before). Now, it behaves as usual.

    Weird. Again, I don't know what I did. But it worked.

  • cannot delete the text box entry - break cp8

    I have two text input boxes and a button smartshape on a slide.

    Text entry areas require username, stores the responses into variables. The button moves to the next slide. I don't want the button to pause the slide, but not text entry areas.

    When I uncheck the 'pause after"in the properties of the input synchronization for each of the text boxes, the break is always carried out for each. In fact, icon pause shows still on the layer of the timeline for each as well.

    The result is that my slide stop 3 times instead of once:)

    It's Captivate 8, sensitive project.

    It is for some a bug in CP8, in previous versions you can change the time of the break, but you can disable it. Must be a design fault, using the same properties of timing for each interactive object to CP8 (to make it "clear").

    For me, it makes sense that you can't disable pause in BER, since it must wait for an input from the user. It's the same for question slides, no way to disable the pause, you can move only. For BER you can move with the synchronization properties, which is not yet the case for Question slides where you (still) that slide on the Timeline can move the point of interruption.

    Why should you get this button? If it is designed as a next button, do you want so that it can move without entries in of the TEB? Then set its action to 'go to the next slide", not to continue?

  • Cannot delete the folder in My Documents no matter what

    I have Windows 7 Home Premium. Recently, I've migrated all my data from one computer to the other. I accidentally created a new folder in "My Documents" or in the library and there is nothing in it and I can not in any way shape delete it. I tried all the guests of cmd and tips, UAC issues, permissions and everything. Nothing works. I simply want the missing file.

    This file was created on a remote computer, then moved to distance on the current system. Then from there, I could not delete the empty folder in Win7 HP.

    Any suggestions would be helpful. And believe me, I tried everything so I hope someone will answer. Thank you...

    I found the ultimate answer. I downloaded 7Zip from www.7zip.org. I installed and opened the 7-Zip File Manager. Moved the folder on the desktop and renamed it a shorter name. Righ-click, deleted, then restarted. Everything has disappeared. Tested on XP, all editions of Vista and all editions of Windows 7, including Windows 7 Enterprise. Works like a charm. Other programs, including everything you mentioned with TweakNow and CCleaner doesn't even come close to that. No prompt needed control, etc.

    Problem replied.

    Hi Ytsircfay,

    Unfortunetly Microsoft cannot generate new without the old keys product keys. I look on the machine, if it's OEM and see if there is a key on it. If this isn't the case, then you will need to buy new software with a key.

    I hope this helps! Shawn - Support Engineer - MCP, MCDST

    You can have too many restore points, a HD that is too small or too many things installed.  What you can do, and it must be safe is to run the Disk Cleanup Wizard.  This will clean the temporary files and a lot of things
