Hello all, tried to find out how but I could not get my Outlook account that is sync'd through gmail off my phone b/c I would like to try that Seven app. Does anyone know how I can remove it? Thanks
If it's setup through Activesync open it from the start menu and go to Menu --> Options and deselect E-mail.

I think you have to delete it, not deselect it.
In ActiveSync's options, highlight the account you want to remove and hit the delete button near the bottom.

Aah, yep, that would delete the whole account (just saw the option, wasn't aware of it before) and deselecting would remove the e-mail messages but maintain the sync/setup.
Perfect, thanks a lot guys!

I did a search for the following criteria "download FULL messages", and nothing was returned that satisfied my question.
I have looked everywhere on the tmo-dash and cannot see a way to download Full email messages. For me, its a bother to read a few sentences and then request download of the rest of the message for every single message I receive. Generally, my individual emails are not more that a few hundred kb's anyway. Also, there is no way to view msg size in the email display. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
Directions
For WM 6:
from messaging, highlight the account.
then:
Menu>settings>Next (until you get to the message format page)> choose "entire message" from the second option which is "message Download limit"

Thanks for your reply. I am using my corporate Exchange server 2003, and when I click MENU the settings option is greyed out.??
I do not use an exchange server, so I do not have any experience with that. For other types of accounts (imap and pop), you cannot access the settings while you are send/receiving. I suppose that if there is a way to stop the account from updating, you could change it that way (maybe?)
its an option in activestink. tools.options. select the email under the exchange account, press settings. its obvious from there...

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, the Vista WMDC looks like this. I do not even have the opportunity to select and/or highlight the exchange email in order to change the settings.

Hi!
I wanted to set up my mail account on my TP2. After entering the data i saw that i just typed in my mail address incorrectly. After changing the address the account does not open anymore, nor can i delet it - it actually does nothing. Do you have any idea how i can delete it?
regards
click mail tab
press menu
press accounts
press accounts
highlight the account you want to delete
press Menu
Press delete
i´ve got the same problem with my german touch pro 2.
your tutorial doesn´t work for me. if i press menu it is going into incoming mails of the account.
any help??
if you press the 'x' after it goes into the account and do it all again, the email account you last opened will be highlighted and you will be able to delete it then
I noticed a bug with the email a few days ago. When i hit send and receive it says downloading 1/1001 and freezes for a while.
i don´t know why, but now i can tap&hold on the account and delete it.
maybe i had first to donwload my emails... thanks
I'm having problems with this... I have an account which isn't working, it won't synchronise (inbox empty) and it would let me delete the account. 'Delete' is grayed out.
p_shep, it will be grayed out if it is an exchange account, as it has to be deleted from another spot in the system. Are you using an exchange email account?
Jason
Nope, it's a Yahoo account :-/
It's like a point a click adventure game this...
Found out how to delete accounts:
FRom emails page
Menu -> accounts -> acounts -> menu -> tools -> options
(basically get to the email options page where the tabs 'accounts', 'message', 'address' and 'storage' are shown along the bottom)
Check the box 'display account picker when opening messaging'
Then click:
Menu -> accounts -> accounts
The account picker should be shown
Highlight the relevent account, and it's just menu -> delete.
What a mess. They don't make it easy do they?
I've seen references to this posted elsewhere, but never a solution. I'd like to only sync the "my contacts" group of contacts from my gmail (really google apps, but should work the same) account, rather than "all contacts". I can not find an option to change this. Any suggestions?
You can go to Contacts and hit Menu -> Display Options -> Google -> Check any groups you want. At least those are the exact instructions for AOSP contacts. It may be slightly different for the HTC contacts, but it should be close enough.
That doesn't work, at least for me. There is no "contacts" section on the EVO, only "people". In "people", pressing menu does not bring up a "display options" option. The only thing similar is "view", but that does not give the option to choose to only sync "my contacts" instead of "all contacts".

just go to People then hit Manu and there is a View option, there you can chose with contacts you want to display.
I don't think that solves it either. This has been a major sore spot since HTC removed the option to sync only certain groups in 2.1. It was a horrible decision and HTC won't respond to the numerous complaints about it.
All you can do is narrow down the number of contacts by going to the People app and doing the following: Menu > View > select "Only contacts with phone numbers" and only "Google"

That does not solve the problem. See my previous reply.

any news on this? I didn't want to start a new thread even though I have a HCT Desire. I'm really happy that gmail syncs the contacts so that I can't loose any, but I would like to sync only one specific group.. not all of them..
thx.
If you go into your Gmail account on the computer you will see a contact tab on the right. than you can create or sync whatever you want.
We have 3 Evo's in my house and all 3 of us have the same problem - Multiples in the contact list.
Any idea how to cure or prevent this?
On my phone - the contacts are only supplied by google when I sign into my account. I do not import any contacts or have them coming from any other sources.
Thanks, Jack

While your contact list is open, hit "Menu", then "View", and make sure everything is unchecked except for "Google Contacts", then hit "Done". If that doesn't work, go to "Menu" from the home screen", hit "Applications", then "Manage Applications", then "All", scroll down to "Contacts Storage" and hit "Clear Data". Then sync your Gmail account again. This is what I have to do with my calendar sometimes when events show up twice. Let me know if it works for you.......
I know you said you were not getting contacts from any other source, but if you have signed into htc facebook that will try to find matches. If you go into the contact do you have an option to link that contact?

Yes and I'm faa,iliar with the facebook connections. This goes much deeper than that. I'm talking 15 or so of the same person in the contacts list.
Part of it might have been from My Lookout, but I haven't even been using that for quite a while.

Thank You very much for your help. I have done what you suggested - but I know that won't fix my problem as I have wiped my phone dozens of times in the last month playing with new ROMs and I only let google sync my contacts upon a fresh install of a rom. So I know this won't fix my problem. Thank You very much for taking the time to respond though. I really do appreciate it.
Jack
I know this sounds dumb, but did you check your Google contacts? Like you I played with roms a lot and I take off auto sync immediately. But sometimes before you can change those settings, the contacts will sync BACK to Google; duplicated contacts and all.
If you find that's the case, you can merge duplicate contacts when managing your contacts on your desktop using Gmail.
At one point, it fudged all of my groups, duplicated and even removed contacts. Luckily I have a backup file on my sdcard and pc that I was able to use.

Again - I really appreciate the help.
I have done the merge duplicates in gmail on the computer. I just installed a fresh rom and let it download my contacts from google only, yet I have multiples of almost all of my contacts. It has gotten better than it used to be somehow. In a quick glance I only noticed no more than 5 of a single contact. I also noticed that the multiples appear to be from accounts that have more than one phone number in them. Like if I have a home phone, a cell phone, a fax phone and an alternate - I will end up with 4 different contacts for that person.
When on ur phone and in contacts scroll over look at links to contact. There is a place that looks like a link to a chain that us either whole or broken. If connected it will link all the contacts with same name and vice versa for the unlinked. Hope that helps. That's for sense roms. If aosp rom they should consolidate on there own with use from what I've seen
how do you change the email notification tone??? its driving me cazy and i cant seem to figure out how or where...
Do this...
Click on the menu button while in Gmail (this is for Gmail, I don't use the included email service)
Go to Settings
If using more than one Email account select the account you want to make changes to
Scroll to the bottom of the settings list
Select "labels to notify"
Select inbox or priority inbox whichever you use (you can set up each to have different notifications)
A popup box will appear
Place a check on the email notifications if it isn't already checked
Select ringtones
Choose whatever ringtone you may want and hit ok
on the popup select ok
you have now set your gmail to whatever ringtone you may want
If you have any problems let me know.
Thank you very much that worked!
