I read my mail on my iPhone but it still shows up as unread on my macbook air?

My gmail account works good but my hotmail account stays as unread even when i have already read it… I called apple and they said because my email is hotmail and it uses POP, i have to go on each indiviudal device to make it become read. But when i had my iphone 4 a year+ ago, when i read a message on my hotmail on my phone, it would be read on the computer.

Is there any possible way around this so when i open my hotmail messages on either device, it will show up as read on my other device? Its annoying having to mark everything as read on my macbook when i had already read them on my iphone.

Any tips or tricks?

You can direct the next firmware update manually, it is now iOS6, you choose to download only
Shift + mouse over recovery (it should be so) to find you download the latest firmware, try this way.
if the way can't to succeed, just ask help to the iphone store
