Re: very basic mac mail question
I just use option=up for top or option=down for bottom. If that doesn't work, be sure you've stopped interacting with the messages table and try again.

Mac Mail question
Hi, How do I move an email from trash back to the inbox? In the edit menu, there doesn't seem to be a move to inbox command. I can't do undo as I deleted it a couple of days ago, but now want it back. I know it's there and I have both interacted with the table and the message line and the actual message itself. Thanks.

Re: Mac Mail question
Once you find it in Trash, Press VO M to go to the menu bar; go over to Message, and down to move to, submenu. Right arrow there and then press I, for Inbox, and enter. That will move the message from Trash to Inbox. If there are other messages in Trash that you wish to move to Inbox, you can simply find them and hit Command Option T. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups MacVisionaries group.

Re: New User Mac Mail Question
Garth, When you go to mail boxes does it show there as one of the options or not? If it does, it could be you just have your gmail inbox chosen, so it will only show your gmail messages. You have to choose the higher level inbox to show messages from both. But, if it does not show, then they are other possibilities.

Re: Mac Mail Question
Hi Linda, If you have 2 mailboxes and you want to easily switch between them, here's how to do it. If you need more help, let me know. First, you will want to have both mailboxes in your favorites bar. You can do this using the new drag and drop procedure in voice over. First, look where the favorites bar is. Interact with it, and find your way around, so that you later know where to paste your second mailbox. If you see checkboxes in the favorites bar, don't worry about them. For this task, they are not important. If your first mailbox is already in the favorites bar, but your second mailbox isn't yet, then you will have to drag the second mailbox from the mailboxes table, over to the favorites bar. The reason you will want both mailboxes to be in the favorites bar is, that you will later be able to use command plus the number 1 to get into the first mailbox, and command plus 2 to get into your second mailbox, as displayed in the favorites bar. Which mailbox will open if you press command 1 or command 2, depends on the order in which the mailboxes appear on the favorites bar. So if, for example, your private email account is first on the favorites bar, and your, say, gmail account is second, then command 1 wil open your private inbox and command 2 your gmail. Opening a new mail window etc, like you described, is then no longer necessary. To drag the second mailbox over to the favorites bar, go to the mailboxes table and interact with it, put the voiceover cursor on the mailbox you want to drag, then press v o comma there. This will tell voice over that this is the item you want to drag elsewhere. Now, move over to the favorites bar and interact with it, put the v o cursor on the spot just to the right of your first mailbox that was already there, and then drop the second mailbox using v o plus period. This will start the drag operation. You will here a mouse down sound, then some soft whooshes while it's dragging, then a mouse up click, and the second mailbox is in the favorites bar. Now, the work should be done, if I'm not forgetting something. It is somewhat more work to get rid of a certain mailbox in the favorites bar, once you accidentally dragged the wrong one over, so be careful that you pick the correct mailbox, that you called, your second mailbox. From now on, if you press command plus 1, your private email should be displayed. Command 2 gives you your other account. You will have to interact again after switching mailboxes this way, but it is fast and convenient to do it this way. Hth. Paul. On Aug 23, 2011, at 1:02 AM, Linda Adams wrote: Hello again, Well, I kept researching and found another solution to my question. I just found that command option N will open a new mail window in which I can then open another mailbox. Then I can easily switch between the windows to check my inbox and my other mailbox.

This will tell voice over that this is the item you want to drag elsewhere. Now, move over to the favorites bar, put the v o cursor on the spot just to the right of your first mailbox that was already there, and then drop the second mailbox using v o plus period. This will start the drag operation. You will here a mouse down sound, then some soft whooshes while it's dragging, then a mouse up click, and the second mailbox is in the favorites bar. Now, the work should be done, if I'm not forgetting something. It is somewhat more work to get rid of a certain mailbox in the favorites bar, once you accidentally dragged the wrong one over, so be careful that you pick the correct mailbox, that you called, your second mailbox. From now on, if you press command plus 1, your private email should be displayed. Command 2 gives you your other account. You will have to interact again after switching mailboxes this way, but it is fast and convenient to do it like this. Hth. Paul.

Mac Mail Question
Hello everyone, I always use command 1 when I want to get back to my inbox from another mailbox. I researched and found an article about setting up similar keyboard commands for other favorite mailboxes but it seems to conflict with what I find on my Macbook laptop. It tells me to make sure my favorites bar is visible and I can select show favorites under the View menu. Well, there's nothing like that under my View menu. I looked around and didn't see it elsewhere. It also said I could use Command 1, command 2 etc for my first, second, etc favorite mailboxes In the mailbox menu Go To menu these are already assigned to inbox, Outbox etc. So, am I missing something, is this article outdated, and is there another way I can assign a keyboard shortcut to another mailbox?
