"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk.
Then in Mail, select each Mailbox & Rebuild from the Mailbox menu.
Is this a MobileMe or dot mac account?

  • I have iphone 5c.  Having email problem.  Does not delete emails showing in inbox from date 8/27 thru 9/23.   When deleted, these same emails repopulate in inbox.  What is going wrong?  How do I fix the problem?

    Ihave iphone5c.  Does not permanently delete emails showing in inbox.  When they are move to Trash then inbox at first shows empty.  However if you leave Mailbox and return then all the emails that were previously deleted and now repopulated in Inbox.  I have tried various things like marking them "read" before deleting, then moving them to Trash, and they still return.  What is going wrong and how do I fix the problem?

    What your describing sounds lot like Nortons anti virus, but other do it to.
    Multiple copies of the same email over and over are almost always anti virus incoming mail scanning. Turn off scanning and the problem goes away turn it back on and it resumes.
    My guess is that your filter issues, and search problems are also related to this uniquitous and most ignored security tool that messes up far more than it should..
    Deleting the index
    I assume you mean the global-messages-db.sqlite. if you don't close Thunderbird and delete it now. Searches will be incomplete until it rebuilds and the time to do that will have a lot to do with how much mail there is and how busy the computer is.
    Now create an exclusion in your anti virus program for the Thunderbird profile folders. My guess is it is trying to scan the files in your profile every time Thunderbird tries to open them and generally turning things into a tug of war, which Thunderbird looses as it just does not wait around if files are locked. It expects exclusive access to it's files immediately, not in 10 minutes when the anti virus has done it's thing. So things get added to the index but not removed. Mails don't move as the destination or source file is "in use" etc.

  • I cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account".

    I suddenly cannot delete mail from my inbox and get a message saying " (msg) could not be moved to the mailbox trash-POP account".  It does not matter if I am trying to delete a single message or mulitiple messages.  Can anyone help?

    If you're running Leopard, as your profile says, then you need to post your question in that forum, not the Snow Leopard forums. So if you're really running Snow Leopard, you need to update your profile to show that, as well as give more details about what kind of mail accounts you have, and who your email provider is.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
    You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
    If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • HT1937 Hi my email is not working it says" Cannot gel mail...The connection to the server failed" but my network is working ok is the only application failing...how can I solve the problem?

    Hi, my mail applicatin is not working properly. It says cannot get main...the connection to the server failed but everything else is working ok. How can I solve this problem?

    The connectivity test indicated that there was a problem with the user's ActiveSync folder, typically fixed by checking the box "Allow inheritable permissions ...".
    Since it already was checked and even by removing the inherited permissions and then re-inheriting them didn't do the trick, I ended up just deleting the whole thing and then made a new duplicate account and blank mailbox.  That was pretty drastic
    but it fixed the problem.  After restoring his mailbox contents from backup, the user is now a happy camper.
    The connectivity test tool was helpful because the external URL was blank so I filled in the URL.  But ActiveSync was working fine for everybody without the URL before although I don't know why it did work without it.
    The other funny thing is on one of my iPads I am able to synch my mailbox and also the user's mailbox but on another iPad it just wouldn't synchronize when it worked before I added the external URL.  The iPads have the same OS version so I
    just don't understand it.  Oh well.
    Thanks for your help.  That was a good tip!

  • How can I solve the problem with copying text from Google Documents?

    Ctrl+C and Ctrl+X are not always working in Google Document opened with Mozilla Firefox 30. This problem first occurred 2 days ago. No changes to the software were made.
    The problem is not stable and permanent. I can successfully copy several lines from document and paste them somewhere else. And suddenly the next one is not copied using ctrl+c. Even ctrl+x is not working until I change the selection of the lines. Sometimes it begin to work after changing the selection, sometimes not.
    I'm using Google Documents for a long time. I always use Firefox to work with them. And I've never had this problem before.

    This problem happens for me as well. I can copy/paste from Firefox initially, but then after pasting elsewhere the Firefox page has to be refreshed in order to copy something else....

  • How can i solve the Problem, that our iCloud combines several iPhone Numbers. All SMS get confused by the changing of numbers

    We have several iPhones and we are just using one iCloud and appleID.
    But since the update of iOS 6 we are confused.
    E.g. My mother sends a SMS to me, but my sister received it. She is confused and is texting back to My mom. But that time I get that text message.
    Even if I send a SMS to a friend, my friend receives it from my sisters account.
    Please help, cause we are so confused

    icloud is designed so that only one user uses it to keep his/her devices in sync.  Problems such as yours occur when multiple users use the same account - icloud is not designed for that.
    If someone has another icloud account, and wants to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.  This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud.  Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
    To create a new icloud account, go to

    Try redownloading the app directly to the iPod by:
    ]Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    It may be that iTunes is not signed into the account that purchased the app or that the computer is not authorized for that account.

  • TELUS called us and said they have detected Flashback virus from our MacBook Pro with retina display i just want to ask if this is possible and how can I fix the problem thanks

    TELUS is our Internet provider at home and they called to inform us that they have detected a Flasback virus from our apple MacBook Pro with Retina display is this possible and can you please help us on how we can fix this problem..I just bought my MacBook last August of this year thanks.

    If your OS is fully up-to-date, that is close to impossible. The Flashback site has not been known to be active since long before August.
    Did you migrate any users from an older system, perhaps? It might have been transferred if that is the case.
    ISP's are famous for mis-diagnosing these things with regard to Macs, so you might want to challenge them to provide you with their logs and specifics about what they are seeing.
    Is it possible that another device is on your network that could be causing this, either something you own or a neighbor using your network?

  • Safari replaced all my bookmarks with those from another of my computer...  without asking.  How do I keep this from happening again and how do I restore the old bookmarks?

    Safari bookmarks issue

    1. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari.
    2. You can only restore the whole bookmarks file to a previous state. It's not possible to restore individual bookmarks.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it, then copy it to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    ~/Library/Safari
    Quit Safari.
    Select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the Finder menu bar. Paste into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    A folder window should open. Restore the file named "Bookmarks.plist" in that folder from a backup that predates the unwanted changes.
