Can T Delete Outlook Emails On Iphone +picture

Answer: This is a accepted botheration that can be bound by alteration a few settings.
What's the issue? Your buzz is synchronized with your email provider's mail server. That agency that any email activity you booty on the iPhone is actuality bifold on the server.
But this synchronization alone works if your iPhone plays by the email server's rules. In adjustment to advance the relationship, your buzz charge annul email letters to a Debris binder amid on Outlook.com's mail server.
However, your buzz is instead aggravating to annul email letters by sending them to the iPhone's own Debris folder. As a result, the email doesn't get deleted and you get an absurdity message.
This can be anchored by activity to the iPhone's settings, and beat on "mail" and afresh "accounts." Bang on "Outlook.com" and afresh on "account" (your email abode appears beside it.) Afresh bang on "advanced" and attending at the area alleged "mailbox behaviors." Bang on "deleted mailbox," and you will see a annual of options for area deleted mail should go.
My assumption is that your buzz has a checkmark beside "Trash" beneath the branch "on my phone." You charge to change that by activity to afterward section, alleged "on the server," and bang "Trash" there. A checkmark should arise beside that option.
Move astern through the airheaded until you get to the "account" page, area you should bang "done" in the high right-hand corner. Then, move aback in the airheaded until "settings," and abutting the settings app.
While this settings change solves the botheration for best people, there are added abeyant fixes at tinyurl.com/yatbeaz3. They accommodate disabling and re-enabling your phone's email account, or deleting your email annual from the buzz and ambience it up again.
Question: I use Windows 10, and accept begin that Microsoft's new Edge browser seems to booty over the aperture of all the Adobe PDF certificate files that access in my email. As a result, I can't accessible those files with Adobe software, which agency I can't use Adobe appearance such as zoom or argument highlighting. Is there a way to accomplish Edge abdicate demography over PDF files?
- Bob Somers, Minnetonka, Minn.
Answer: Microsoft's Edge browser contains its own PDF-reading software, and does not abutment the software "plug-in" that enables added browsers to accessible PDFs with Adobe. So you will charge to about-face to a altered browser if you appetite to booty advantage of Adobe's features.
Microsoft's internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox (see tinyurl.com/bsxs3kt) are two options.
The Google Chrome browser (see tinyurl.com/qbud93e) can use Adobe software. But as a aftereffect of a 2015 redesign of the browser, it won't use Adobe by default. To accomplish Chrome automatically accessible PDF abstracts with Adobe, accomplish a simple change in Chrome's settings (see tinyurl.com/8xuo2c6).
