Hi All,

I'm brand new and I'm sure this has been addressed. Yesterday I lost my mailboxes--inbox,outbiox and sent. I'm still receiving mail because it dings and the number of emails is present on the app. Any help retrieving them would be gratly appreciated and much thanks in advance.

When things start acting a bit weird, it's a good idea to completely shut the iPad off and restart. You should probably do this at least once a week (my unsupported opinion on frequency.)

Just hold down the power button for about three seconds. You'll get a power off slider. Go ahead and slide it off. Wait until the iPad completely shuts down and then restart it by holding down the power button for about three seconds again.

For more serious problems, when shutting it off doesn't work, you can do a soft reset. Hold down the power and home key for about 10 seconds, or until the Apple logo appears. Let go and wait for it to reboot. This will take a few minutes, so be patient.
