Hey all,
Ok, so I am making the jump from gmail to iCloud. I was told I would need to
use the iCloud website to create my rules if I wanted the messages to follow
those rules across devices. First I had to reload the iCloud website three
times as VoiceOver wouldn't even allow me to enter my App
Could be that it is still building an index for those million e-mails. I
suggest leaving it alone for a few hours with the screen locked.
Best wishes,
Jonathan

Hi,
In Terminal, you can tell your Mac to show hidden files but, in my opinion,
it's unnecessary. Those files that you are speaking of are so small that it
would take thousands of them to use up any amount of space that matters.

Hi,
It all depends on the size of the accounts and the number of files, along with
the speed of your HD and the amount of RAM in your machine. It's sort of a
combination of all those factors. Creating an image often includes compressing
files, so, the amount of time you mentioned is not out o

I don't believe that accessibility is a factor here in this case, especially

Hi,
Why not back up your computer, delete your Gmail account completely. Reinstall
it, and try again. It seems to me you're the only one having these issues. I
don't care for the way Gmail operates completely, however I can get around it
and use it both on my iPhone and my Mac.

One bit of caution is to not starve RAM on the Mac side. Mavericks doing
nothing seems to take up about 1GB RAM. So if you are on a 4GB RAM
machine and give 2GB to your virtual machine, and VMWare taks abouther
3-400MB of overhead, that leaves just 1.5GB RAM or so for the mac side.
