How to retrieve most recent emails first?

I'm running Thunderbird 24.5.0 in Windows 7. When I launch Thunderbird or when I select "Get Mail" he insists on recovering older emails first. I'd be too concerned about it if she would get just ALL my mail. Only, he pulls a little at a time in short bursts and I continually have to choose "Get Mail" to coax a little more and she always extracts emails from 2009. It's very tedious. There must be a better way. How can I get Thunderbird just get everything in one click or recovery at all, the first more recent? I'm not usually very interested in e-mail five years ago.

I find it remarkable that I have Thunderbird installed on my Ubuntu partition where I don't have this problem. On this platform, Thunderbird all my mail almost instantly recovered the first time I launched it and I am able to view my most recent email without these hassles.

Windows safe mode is usually sufficient, without any other change of settings.

Your trying to get all your old mail as there is no option to get newest first.  It is just not in the RFC

    Create an album with the photos that you want to sort, use the sort View ➙ menu:

    The Photos window sorts by dealing with the most recent date down.  Pictures of all sorts them by date added to the library with the most recent at the bottom.  Albums can be sorted in three ways, in the menu or manually.

  • Photo images to the draw layer: when you import pictures, it shows me the oldest first, how to show most recent first?

    Hello

    When I import an image from a folder on the ipad, it shows the older image first.

    So I have to scroll through my 1000 images to get to the most recent.

    is there a simple solution to this

    Thank you

    Jay,

    I'm going to make sure that the draw team sees this conversation, but at the present time, there is no way to reverse how images appear in the photo selection process. I'm sorry. I know that you are looking for a frame or something.

  • How can I customize trash folder by date, most recent email on top?

    I have just deleted email and tried to recover it but could not find it on the top of the column of Trash as dates and e-mails are all mixed. Previously all deletions are dated from the top down, the most recent on top.

    Usually, sort you items in a list by clicking a column heading. If you click on the column heading even once him reverse you the sorting order in this column. Then try clicking on the date column header once.

    When I opened the photos, my older photos appear first and the library is dependent.  I have to scroll all the way to the bottom of my library to make the pictures more recently dated.

    Is there a way to put the most recent photos appear first and the top of the album?

    You can make a personal pictures of the smart albums by creating a chip (File menu ==> new smart album) for certain criteria, nothing will meet as date is not 1/1/1000 s - you can sort her ascending or descending

  • How update of most recent safari when I run 10.6.8

    I have a macbook pro with

    OS X 10.6.8

    2.53 ghz processor intel core 2 duo,

    750 GB hard drive.

    System a safari 5.1.10 (6534.59 - 10), I am told by some Web sites that safari is obsolete. On some sites, I can't use them because of this incompadability of the questions. (And in fact, I could say I have problems on the Apple support Web site too. I took several tests to be able to post this question and only after quickly by clicking on the blue box, before disappearing dbl. "I was able to post this question here.)

    Recommendation of apples is updated to the last XOS El Capitan.

    I looked at the reviews and the latest 10 are all negatives. Apparently, still full of bugs and slow running.

    I can't find a link to upgrade to some other more recent then mine, but older then el capitan of operating system.

  • Smartphones blackBerry lost all my emails and now I can't respond to most recent emails

    OK, I know for a fact that we are not in the month of April, so I was not stupid Rascal by prank in April. I connected my phone on the charger, last night, as I do on a daily basis and this morning I wake up all of my missing emails and when I want to answer some emails, all I have for the options are:

    Switch App

    Save as draft

    Full menu

    I went into options and my emails are set to be deleted after 30 days, but he was not more than 2 weeks because I opted for the bb smartphone data package... Plan of the family at & T 10 GB.

    The only thing I can think off the fact that we spend time to 1 hour before but that sounds extremely illogical to me.

    I'm on a "BOLD" worm 7.1.0 package 9900 2543

    I read here that my notebook of maintenance may be corrupt, but only service CMIME book that I find is for 1 e-mail account (on 4) and when I delete it and restore then, nothing happened.

    I did the old disconnect the battery to reset the bb, but has not as well.

    Again, I have not changed, edited anything on my email accounts because I made them at the beginning. The only thing that I remember I did was I plugged the phone into the charger once and about 5 minutes later I unplug the unit to use, 10 to 15 minutes later, I plugged it upward and fell asleep, but once again... I doubt seriously that this Jack my entire email settings.

    Sorry for the long rant, I try to be as careful as I can. Lose my email isn't a big deal since I have them on my outlook Inbox, but it becomes a bit boring that I lost on my device and not able to answer them.

    Thanks and sorry if this has been posted before, none of the answers I found helped me personally.

    EDIT: I just went to Thunderbird and I myself sent a test email to all email accounts that I have on my BB, they all came immediately but I have been unable to answer one of them. I wonder if remove/uninstall accounts emails that I have on my BB and a fresh install would solve the problem.

     

    Still, I'd like to know what happened and why he has done it well.

    It seems that I was stuck trying to answer an email that came in before I made any changes and why I thought that it did not work.

    After some additional testing, I am now sure that everything I did worked, and Yes, I wait for all future emails on registration and activation before you pull the battery.

    I'm still a little angry that I have to wait until tomorrow to meet this customer of my outlook at the office but happy that I had my email working again... Although why is past will be nag at me for a few more days lol.

    Thanks again for your help.

  • BlackBerry® Smartphones email most recent on top

    Every time when I check my email, I need to scroll down to get to my most recent email.

    Is there any setting so the cursor starts on top with the most recent email first?

    New emails must be at the top of the list, but the list will open at the same point you left it. For example, if you have opened the icon and scroll to halfway down, then closed the icon then the next time that you open the icon if you have a new email or not you are still going to be at halfway to the bottom of the list. Press the T key to reach the top of the list and press B to join the bottm.

  • How can I put pictures in the most recent at the top of the screen while I scroll more recent instead of to the top?

    How can I put pictures in the most recent at the top of the screen while I scroll more recent instead of to the top?

    The album "All Photos" can only be sorted by date, oldest first.

    But you can create your own album of all the Photos in a smart album, which keeps all the photoss. A custom Smarta album can be sorted in descending order, most recent photos first.

    My album ' my photo all the "custom is defined as: a rule 'Date is after', with a date range beginning well before the oldest photo in the library, then everything will be included, and I added a"Photo is not hidden,"so hidden photos will be excluded.

    To sort descending album ctrl-click in the sidebar and value 'out' 'Keep sorted by date, most recent first':

  • iCloud backup does not include recent emails

    I backed up my iPhone 6 to iCloud for the first time, but the most recent emails are from 2014. Where are the rest of my emails?

    I understand (maybe I am wrong, and someone can correct me, if any) that an iCloud or iTunes backup saves your e-mail settings, but not the e-mail messages themselves.  You should be able to download the real mails of your server. Try:

    Settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > fetch new data > (and the setting of recovery for the specific e-mail account)
