The number on my iCloud mail unread is incorrect. My account is working and empty, but indicates a number of 797.  The count is correct on my iPhone.

My iCloud account is set up on my iMac and iPhone.  Mail can be sent and received correctly. However, the Inbox on my iMac shows a number of 797 unread even if there is no emails in the Inbox.  How can I get an accurate count in the mail application?

Try Mail/preferences/general/Dock unread count and set it to Inbox only.

Try re-indexing of mailboxes mailbox. This can take some time if you have a lot of mail.

Reindex messages           For El Capitan, try looking in V3.

  • Not smart synchronization of the way is designed as I used xmark and decided to use sync FF, so I created an account on PC at work and now I am at home want to synchronize my mobile home. How the hell can I do?

    OK good people going here.
    I have been using foxmarks/xmarks for more than 3 years. Now after FF upgrade 6.0 at work, I thought it would be a good idea to start using sync FF. So I created a FF account at work and synchronized with a FF server somewhere and they gave me a key of synchronization.

    So, when I came home, I though I'll add my laptop and my iMac to sync FF, but to my surprise, the instructions are that I should add a device on FF where I created my account, which is at work!

    That is why y at - there a way around this, or I have to call my wife to work and do it on the phone?

    Thank you in advance.
    See you soon

    On your laptop at home, follow these steps:

    1. Open the section 'Sync' of the Options window.
    2. Press the button «Set up Firefox sync»
    3. Press the "Connect" button to connect to your existing account.
    4. At the bottom of the "Add a device" window, click on the link that says "I don't have the camera with me.
    5. Enter your email address and password sync key.

  • Apple Mail displays an incorrect number of unread messages

    Hello

    Apple Mail on my iPad is connected to my account Hotmail from Microsoft. "I have e-mail boxes a decade in my Hotmail account (in addition to the standard"Inbox) "and Hotmail will sort my emails in each box, rules-based, I created.

    Several months ago, Apple mail started to display correctly the number of emails unread in one of my mailboxes. Recently, he began showing the number of emails unread in a second box incorrectly. In one, Apple mail displays 4 emails unread, even if this one is almost always empty. In the other, who always has a certain E-mail read in it, Apple mail displays 6 emails no more read than exist. In other words, if there are 2 unread emails, Apple mail says I have 8.

    • I checked the mail boxes in my account Hotmail by going there in my browser to see if it is has more emails unread only download of Apple mail. There is not.
    • I downloaded the Microsoft Outlook application to check and it shows the number of emails unread for each box.

    Is there a way to get Apple mail to correctly display the number of unread emails?

    Thank you.

    Ray

    Hello there Ray_ES,

    Looks like it's just your Apple's Mail application that shows the incorrect number of e-mails on your iPad. I would like to start by leaving the Mail app and the settings app:

    Force an app to close the iOS

    1. press the Home button twice quickly. You will see small glimpses of your applications recently used.
    2. slide to the left to find the application you want to close.
    3. push upward on the overview of the application to close.

    When you have done that reboot the device and test again the question:

    iOS: switch off and on (restart) and reset

    If the problem persists then I would remove the account from the application settings, restart the iPad and try again:

    1. Delete the email account assigned from your device with these steps:
      1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, calendars.
      2. Press the email account.
      3. Press to delete the account.
      4. Add your account again.

  • Y at - it a messaging of iOS application that updates the counts unread for all folders?

    I went through a considerable amount of effort to organize my e-mail on iCloud in several folders, some nested, including using filters to Apple to sort my emails in these folders.  I was really surprised to see that the mail iOS app is not able to maintain unread accounts next to these folders.  I think that it is possible to declare as "Inbox", but in addition to the clutter of dozens of them, he "flattens" and resumes the structure unnecessarily. What I want is the the folder tree is as with the counts read next to them.  Parent folders contains the sum of the counts unread subfolders.   If any of you have used 'Claws Mail', you'll know exactly what I mean.

    What is happening is that the unread number is updated only when I visit the folder.  Visit dozens of folders at the same time, it is tedious and unacceptable.  I'm really curious to know what Apple had in mind when creating this filter mechanism without providing the counts unread next to the folders.  It really beats the screening point, and I get bored to see mail in due course.  I tried every setting I could find to the counties to operate without success.

    Is there any application to mail out there that can do this?

    A second problem with the filters of Apple on the iCloud is that iOS doesn't let you get to iCloud.com via Safari to manage your filters.  You use Chrome or non - iOS to connect to iCloud.com system.   I don't see why this is so.

    You can press and hold the icon Refresh (semicircular arrow) into the URL bar "Ask Site Desktop" will appear and then press that.

  • iCloud mail makes MacBook Air running very hot and very fast battery drain

    Given that the upgrade to El Capitan and running the latest updates of my MacBook Air has worked very (almost too hot to the touch in some places) hot and the fan that has happened all the time. The battery is also in very quickly - I can sit and look at the percentage count.

    If I disable my iCloud in Mail preferences the computer messaging service cools, the fan stops and the battery stabilizes. So it must be a problem with iCloud mail. Anyone who has ideas or fixes for this?

    I stopped to receive mail after December 31.  It indicates that the computer cannot connect to my account but when I log in with my password I get the message "this account already exists." How can I get my email account to work again?

    MacBook Air, OS X El Capitan

    First of all, make sure that you don't have two accounts with the same address. What happens if one of them is an iCloud account.

    From the Mail menu bar, you select

    ▹ Connection Doctor window

    In the window that opens, look for an SMTP (outgoing mail) account with a name that corresponds to the account that you are trying to add. Double-click it. Another window opens, displaying the list of all outgoing mail accounts. Click the sign button less to remove the corresponding one, and then click OK.

    Try to add the email account again. If you still can not, log off or restart the computer, and then open the preferences window accounts Internet and check if the account is displayed.
