Phone GMail shows no emails but web gmail shows new emails - Captivate General

So this thing just started within the past week. My phone's stock gmail app will show new emails so I look at them and then they are all read, showing 0 new.
But when I login to the web browser version, 5 minutes or even later(up to hours later), the web browser gmail is not updating to show that I already read the emails.
Anybody having similar problems? Any suggestions?
I'm on JH2.
Thanks

unable to read gmail fwd emails

i have gmail imap set up so that the phone grabs new emails every hour. So far it's working great, but I'm having trouble viewing emails that are forwarded to this gmail account from my other email accounts (I have them forwarded to gmail so I don't have to run around everywhere fetching them). Does anyone know what the problem is? This is getting rather frustrating, as I'd have to check m.gmail.com on opera instead in order to view those fwd mails. help would be much appreciated.
Not sure why it wouldn't work for you. I don't seem to have that problem. Do you use pop to that gmail box at all? I know I had to set the POP settings in gmail to "When messages are accessed with POP Keep GMail's copy in the Inbox."
I don't see anything else that would keep something from downloading to your phone.

Push GMAIL email - does it work for you?

If you haven't seen it:

I tried it by sending a test email to my email address but the email didn't get 'pushed'.
Edit: It seems to be working now!
Doesn't seem to be working for me either.
It seems others are having trouble too:

not working here either.
I got it working, its exrteamly spotty right now. The google servers are probably going crazy right now.
not workign for me...gonna try again in a couple weeks, when hopefully all the hoopla has died down a bit
Interesting. I set it up this morning and it's been working perfectly all day. Emails are coming in before they show up on Gmail's web application.
Working for me - only problem I've got is how to get the outlook mail account to appear on the email tab of touchflo 3d. Any ideas?
I set mine up yesterday and it was pretty crappy, but today it's working great. Looks like they fixed whatever was broken.
Yeah, working great for me today.
Works great for me, only syncing email with m.google.com, though. Everything else (contacts, calendar, notes, & files) still sync with Outlook on my desktop.
Push seems to be nearly instant - definitely just as fast as the browser based inbox on my desktop...
yes it's working today for me too!
Email was pushed right away!
I still can't get it it show more than 10 of my most recent messages in my inbox. I have it set to push all my mail, but it won't push it all. I do get new messages fine though. Is there a setting I'm missing? Am I supposed to check something else? Pleas help, thank you.

um is your gmail account set to IMAP?
On your phone, you can go into your outlook options and set it to download all emails in the past month.
No its not set up to IMAP, and I've already set it to download all my email, but it still doesn't push it all.
No push here either.
I'm having the same problem, I've got it set to download my inbox and starred going back forever (all messages rather than timeframe). There're only about 20 messages total, but it only downloads 3 in starred. (inbox is empty right now) In imap you can do tools>manage folders>folder settings and change it from there, but in activesync it seems the time frame setting is account-wide (huge bummer) or only adjustable for the inbox, and everything else is 3 days (also huge bummer).
Obviously I want all my starred messages, drafts and inbox items, but do I really want the full history of my sent items folder? Why can these not be set seperately, is this a limitation of activesync or google? Right now, best it seems to do is last three days of messages, regardless of settings.
I'm gonna go check out google's forums/help pages/whatever.
its working
I already had my contact and calendar sync set so all i had to do is tick the email in sync options and it worked great! no more IMAP

not sure if you know this or not, but in activesync settings you can choose how far back you want to download as well as which folders to download/sync. it's not in the messaging options, but in activesync.
ALSO, anyone noticing higher battery drain versus using another client ie SEVEN for push email? My battery usually lasts a little more than a full day, but it died in 14 or so hours today. I set up gmail to sync mail and calendar.
What is your opinion; I currently pay for Yahoo premium and have only POP. Do you think gmail is worth the trouble of converting email addresses for the free bonuses gmail has?

[Q] Email app syncing most, but not all, emails?

Email app.
Sync schedule: Auto
Period to sync Email: All
Most of the emails seem to be synced, but some aren't showing up (some are as recent as 2 days ago). I can search for them on the server and find them. I can open Outlook on my computer and see the in the Inbox. But they aren't showing up in the Email app Inbox. I can't see any reason these few emails are different from the rest that do sync successfully. Any idea why some emails are not showing up in the Email Inbox?
Hi, I have an S6 internation version from couple of days and I am facing exactly the same issue. Did you find a solution? I am getting crazy on this

Stock Email app, I feel lame I can't figure this out myself

Looked around didn't see a solution for this. For my personal email account (through my ISP) that I have configured in the stock e-mail app. With every phone I had in the past, if I either downloaded the emails to my PC clearing them from the server, or went into the online web app and deleted them, when I refreshed the email on my phone I would only see the emails that still exist on the server. My new Z3 however persists and still shows the emails that I had deleted/downloaded and are no longer on the server. I checked every option and can't find any way to fix this. Thoughts?
What E-mail service do you use?
sorry.. my answer was not relevant to the question.
Have you tried re-adding your account? I had an issue where the email never updated (had to do it manually). Re-added my hotmail account, all good now.

Emails won't sync all emails.

So I used the stock email to do all my business emails, and it was fine. Not great but worked well enough. Recently it started to only sync about 1 week back, and wouldn't load any more than that. So I switched it over to Gmail to see if it would sync all the emails. It didn't help. I can still read all my emails on my computer but for some reason all the emails won't appear on my phone. My Gmail account still syncs all its emails to my phone, but my business (which isn't gmail) won't. Any help would be great. Thanks.

I found a solution for this, i was looking for this myself.
Switch back to your stock email app which is located in Samsung folder.
Add your email (mine is hotmail) after you done that, you will be redirected to your inbox, in the right corner there is a button called "more" then "settings" then you will see your email account name, press that. now look at the bottom, you will find "Period for synchronization of e-mail" and then press "all".
Well I gave that a shot, and while it loads emails, it will only load to March 10, which may mean I did something back on that day to not let it sync anything further past that day. Could it be on the email hosting side perhaps?
OK, for anyone who might take a gander at this in the future, I found out what was wrong. I had checked off the box that says delete from server after 14 days, in outlook on my computer. Kind of a bozo mover, but hopefully it might save someone in the future.
