Apple mail.app doesn't work after joining google+

I use apple's mail.app to manage my multiple emails. on my main personal gmail i joined google+. ever since joining google+, mail.app no longer imports any email from that account. i can still send email through mail.app but no new received emails import into mail.app
any help resolving this issue?

I found some solutions I find unacceptable in this thread:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1596183&tstart=0
For some people just restarting the phone seems to fix it. For others they have to do a complete factory reset and set up the phone as a new phone it appears as if something is corrupted in the backup, so restoing from backup will bring back the same issue.
This stinks because it means that you lose all your backed up information (except calendar and contacts, which are stored separately)
I'm still looking for an alternate solution.

  • Mail app doesn't work

    Mail app doesn't work after Yosemite OSX upgrade. At first it didn't check email and now it doesn't boot. I tried many times, but nothing happens

    Ok after nearly going crazy I read something about someone having a problem with a program related to fonts not being installed. I started up font book and now my problem is miraculously resolved... This is good and bad. I don't know why having font book running would resolve my problem or know what font is causing the programs not to work. As far as I know I didn't disable any system fonts. And the problem doesn't happen when font book is running, which is confusing me.

    the problem seems to be related with dovecot ... in my smtp log i get this:

  • Apple Mail App won't work for Yahoo Mail

    About two months ago I switched from using the Yahoo web interface for my Yahoo mail to using the Apple Mail App.  (Yahoo changed their web interface and I didn't like the new one).  The Apple mail app worked fine until 2 days ago.  I couldn't get new mail or send mail.  It appeared that mail could not connect to the Yahoo mail server.  I killed mail and started it up, that didn't work.  I took the account offline and then back online and that didn't work.  When I tried to do things like delete mail that I had received before the problem started Mail appeared to hang and I had to Force Quit Mail.  Finally I deleted the email account from mail and then tried to recreate it.  Now I can't recreate the account via the normal mail process of creating an account. 
    I have a MacBook Pro which I bought about 4 months ago. I'm on OSX 10.9.1.  I'm using Mail version 7.1 that came with the MacBook Pro.
    So I am back to using the Yahoo web interface, that I really don't like.  BTW my mail works fine on my iPhone. 

    Well, Mail crashed.  Then the WiFi I was using went down (I'm at a Texas State park and the power failed) and I switched to using my iPhone as a hot spot and it suddenly connected.  Could the problem have been the Texas State Park router?

  • Mail app has stopped working after 10.9.4 update on July 4, 2014

    Mail is totally dead.  It does not connect to the internet.  Each of my email accounts has the exclamation triangle next to them.  No new peripherals or devices or USB connections were added after the update.  The system worked before the update, and the same system stopped working (Mail app so far) after the update.

    In your opinion Apple was doing a garbage job, when in fact it was Intego that trashed your Mac. That's all it is capable of doing.
    But now I have no virus protection.
    This is a common misconception. OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple. Ill-conceived "anti-virus" garbage convey no benefit and as you found out, can simply prevent your Mac from working as it is designed to work.
    Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
    Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
    Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
    Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
    Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
    Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
    Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
    Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
    Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
    Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
    Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
    Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
    Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
    Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
    Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
    If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
    Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
    The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
    OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
    Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
    If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
    Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
    Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
    Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

  • Mail App no longer working after 2.0 upgrade

    I upgraded to 2.0 on my IPhone Edge and now my mail application no longer works AT ALL. If I try to open it, it simply shows me a blank mail screen, waits for a few seconds and then returns to the home screen. Strangely enough, I have been able to send email photos using the camera application.
    Email is the most important application for me on the iPhone! Has anyone encountered this problem? Is there a fix available?

    I recently stopped by the apple store and have fixed my mail app! The problem as described to me was caused by a installing apps. Turns out that apps can mess with Mail setting in some way and perhaps due to a bad setting or a bad combination of settings my mail application stopped working. The way I fixed it was to do a restore to New Iphone which, unfortunately, wipes everything! But after syncing back up including re-installing all of my apps, mail works again! Of course, I lost all of my notes, various settings, and lots of other stuff. Turns out that a simple restore, since it backs up your phone beforehand (backing up bad settings at the same time) is not the silver bullet but a full restore to new iphone probably often is. Hope this helps others.

  • Apple Universal Dock doesn't work after full charge

  • E-mail notification doesn't work after software upgrade

    Based on the recommendation of a sales rep; I did the software upgrade yesterday and have had nothing but problems.  All the e-mail accounts didn't work.  So I spent an hour getting my e-mails setup and guess what?
    Even though I have it setup to check every 10 minutes; it doesn't work.  I have to manually go to each account and click on the 2 arrows to check.  I used to get a flashing blue light on my phone when I had a new e-mail; now I don't.

  • Using GMail as the mail app doesn't work

    I have Firefox 11.0, OS X 10.7.3 Lion. In Firefox, I go to Preferences / Applications, and set the default MailTo app handler as GMail. I restarted Firefox, when I click on a mailto link nothing happens (just the click highlight). I installed Google Notifier, and when I launch the Mail app, I made sure the default mail program is Google Notifier. Still doesn't work.

    Interestingly enough, clicking a hyperlink from Safari works great - launches Firefox tab with a new message composed.

  • Apple Remote App Doesn't Work

    So I cannot figure this out. For some reason when I use the Remote app it doesn't work right. In iTunes it does not come up under the devices tab. I have tried both with and without my iPod connected and for some reason it just isn't working for me. I would really appreciate soem help because this app seems awesome to me.

    In iTunes 8:
    Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Devices tab. Make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
    In iTunes 7:
    Go into your iTunes preferences and select the Advanced tab. Select the General tab beneath it, and make sure "Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes" is selected. If it already is, try clicking "Forget All Remotes"
    You also want to be sure that both devices (the computer and the iPod) are connected to the same wireless network.

  • Apple Mail App Doesn't Close When Quit Button Is Pressed

    My apple mail application on my iMac Running Mountain Lion is responding extremely slow and doesn't close when I press the quit button.
    I have to use force quit to close the mail application.
    Also the mail appliation stops spontanuously and a crash report is generated which I send to apple.
    Problem exist now for about 3 weeks.
    I have 4 email boxes (icloud using imap; and 3 pop3)
    Rebuilding my mailboxes didn't solve the problem
    Hope someone has a sollution.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
    Back up all data.
    Quit Mail.
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you'll have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Exception for syslogd in com.apple.alf.plist doesn't work after 10.5.6 upgd

    (This is cross-posted from the 10.5 Ins and Setup forum [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8902103#8902103], per the suggestion of a reader.)
    In 10.5.4, I added /usr/sbin/syslogd to the exception list in /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/com.apple.alf.plist.
    This allowed me to keep the mediocre application firewall set to "allow only essential services" and still allow my router to send syslog messages to a log on my Mac.
    I upgraded to 10.5.6 (straight from 10.5.4). Since the upgrade, it appears that the application firewall ignores the additional exception entry I added.
    I've tried moving the exception entry up (replacing the one for configd), but it doesn't matter. I already know about /Library/Preferences/com.apple.alf.plist, so you don't need to suggest that I delete it. It's re-created (as a binary) each time you unload/load the launchctl for syslogd, and it does appear to use the file in /usr/libexec/ApplicationFirewall/com.apple.alf.plist.
    The only two ways I've found to allow syslogd through are:
    1. disable the app firewall (choose "allow all incoming connections" (not my preferred solution)
    2. choose "set access for specific services and applications", which unfortunately allows all the specified applications (and probably allows Apple's hidden list of exceptions that includes things like World of Warcraft and Skype). The hidden list opens the machine to a greater number of attacks from trojan software, and I'd rather have the system locked down, not opened up.
    Does anyone know how I can recover the 10.5.4 functionality, which allowed me to add syslogd as an exception, instead of adding it to the GUI list of applications?

    I also want to receive log information from my Draytek Router I found a reference in the Draytek forum see:
    http://www.forum.draytek.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=12009&highlight=syslog+mac
    however when I updated the
    com.apple.syslogd.plist
    the required information did not get thru to the Draytek Syslog program.
    I am also using 10.5.6
