Q: Gmail on Ipad

You can delete them on the iPad, or you can move them into a folder and it should be removed from your iPad inbox.

Go into Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars->Accounts->Tap on your Gmail account. Then turn off "Archive Messages"

When you do that, deleting them on the iPad will cause them to be deleted on the Gmail server also.

To delete them on iPad. try swiping to the right on the email in the list, or using the trashcan icon when the email is open.

I turned off archiving.  After I delete emails on gmail, they are removed from gmail but still show on my ipad.  How do I delete them?

Phil, he has already turned off the Archive Message setting.

Are the emails that were previously archived appearing or the newly deleted ones are appearing when searching?

You'll need to delete all emails stored in the "All Mail" folder for those not to appear, that's where the archives are stored.

Gary,

It may be possible about them not syncing yet, I use Gmail and have no problem. Collin may be right, it could also be whether you are having the Gmail server "push" the emails to your iPad or if you have your iPad "fetch" the emails from the Gmail server.

Fetch will refresh the server more often, "Push" doesn't work well on iOS devices.
