- I struggled with trying to move my Gmail inbox messages all at once to a label or folder. I would have to go in one by one and select each message, then move it to my label. Google recommends setting up an automatic filter but here is a quick and easy way to do this in just a few clicks.

I have seen bunch of videos and have read article on how to shift emails to a folder/ or label them so that they dont appear on my inbox. Trust me the videos with more than 1 million views could not explain the way u did. Thanks a lot for this quick tip. You saved my INBOX😀😃
thank you! Glad it helped!!!
Thanks so much. I saw several videos trying to remove one email address from the inbox label and you were the only one who helped me.
oh good! glad it helped!
Clear, accurate & precise! YOU ARE THE BEST! for yrs now I have tried to move(not copy) specific e-mails(say, all e-mails I'd received from eBay to move to a folder I called "my eBay purchases" but it would create duplicate copies (one in the eBay folder but also another in my Inbox! what? well, the main purpose of all this is to clean my Inbox by MOVING (not copying) e-mails from it to a respective self-created/named folder (called "Label" in Gmail). At 1:50 of your video I just found the answer.... the ARCHIVE function that will allow to take off the Inbox label (so there is ONLY one copy of emails and are no longer in the Inbox). THANK YOU!! 5-stars!!!!!!
ha ha that’s great!!! so happy to help!
Thanks man, I was trying to do this for 15 years but kept giving up. Think I can fire my therapist now and stop taking all these pills

Thank you!!!

Straightforward but bit of a pain. Labels take some getting used to. I'm used to the Outlook Mail Rule feature that seems more intuitive. You create the rule and apply it. Using the "Archive" term is misleading. It makes you want to look for an Archive folder.
Thank you so much😄
you are welcome!
In Yahoo mail, you select all, right click on any one/move to/pick folder.
Not your fault, but this is a ridiculously convoluted way to have to bulk move some messages.
Thanks Dude.
Absolutely!
Thank you!
You’re welcome!
thanks bro
Thank You😊💖
You are welcome!
beauty, thanks mate
No problem 👍
awesome.
when i repeat the steps too many time , gmail dont move or do any action anymore.
And when i use google as the keyword, some email not sent by google also gt moved. That is little annoying
Sorry for talking so long, But thank you , my inbox is cleared up now
I know it’s a little confusing but glad you got things cleared up!
Is it possible to DRAG and Drop Conversations from a multiple Inbox to a Different Multiple Inbox label?
This video was very helpful. Thanks 2023
Shoot I’m not sure but maybe someone else knows and will leave a comment below. Thank you!
Nice trick!
thanks!
@@RedTractorLeather Thank yoou!
OH MY GOD THANK TOU!!!!
You are welcome ;-)
@@RedTractorLeather is there any way so when the emails come in they no longer show up in the inbox ? Or every time we would have to archive them in bulk?
Yes I believe you can set up a rule that when an email comes in with a certain subject or from a specific sender for example it goes automatically to a label. Open an email you want to apply this to. Then in the middle in the toolbar above the email click the 3 dots to open other options. Click Filter messages like these and when you choose your options you can have these messages go to a specific label and I think also archive them in the same rule
@ Red Tractor
After you this how can I send all of them to another person? Thank you!
Marshall you can try this:
-Start by selecting the emails you want to forward.
-Click the forward icon button on the top of your Gmail inbox
-Enter an Email Address
The Recipient Will Begin Receiving the Emails.
@@RedTractorLeather thank you
😁👍👍
Hey! When I archive the messages they still appear in my inbox? is there another step? Thanks
The only thing I can think of is make sure you’re selecting all the messages (again) and then archiving. And I’m assuming you can see another label besides the inbox label so they have somewhere else they can go. Hope that helps!
I think you are doing it right. Just make sure you have two labels and all messages selected when you archive! Hope that helps!
@@RedTractorLeather Thanks for the message! when I archive them they stay in my inbox? am I doing something wrong.
if you try just one message and move it to a label does that work? Do you now see two labels? If so then try clicking archive and does it remove one of the labels? The only other thing I can think of is it depends on the platform you might be using. Are you on a mobile device or laptop/desktop and are you using an app? That might help us get closer to the problem ;-)
Some one tell me what is the golden arrow next to Google Calendar Indicates!
I did find this from Google - They say:
The yellow "tag" in Gmail is called a "yellow marker". Gmail analyzes your incoming mail messages based on messages that you receive, open, reply to.
I hope that helps!
My Gmail Inbox looks nothing like the one you're showing. I don't get the "Apply" button or any of the steps after that one. It leaves all the selected emails in Inbox where they are presently. :-(
Hi Romy! Can you send a screenshot?
Or try this to switch back to the ‘classic’ view. Go to the top-right of the screen and choose Settings, and then under Quick Settings choose the Go back to the original Gmail view option.
How to get notifications for emails add in label? But I don't want it to be shown in my inbox.
Please advise
I think there might be a way to set up a ‘rule’ that messages go straight to a label but not sure on that
@@RedTractorLeather yes mails are going directly to label, but I am not getting notifications for that
does this link help

@@RedTractorLeather No but thank you , you tried helping.
But it only shows how to move emails to label, the issue is whenever new emails comes it directly goes into that label which is ok, but I am not getting notifications for those emails.
Gmail is such a pain. For heavens sake Google learn from outlook.
I want to move 20K email from INBOX to a label called "Older Email". (Why? I am about to add a MAPI account to my Outlook and don't want 20k old email to pour into my new Outlook inbox - just new email from today forward.)
Using your filter method, I tried to label all inbox email using "FROM: *.*" and other variations but I cannot select all 20K emails.
Initially, I tried MOVING all inbox to label "older email" but it was stuck "LOADING" for hours.
BTW, I have already deleted all large emails 2MB+, and emptied my trash successfully.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Brett that is a good question! Maybe it has to do with the amount of emails and the size? not sure I’ve tried to move that many emails. Hopefully somebody else will chime in with a good answer!
