Can't access mail in .mac program

Please help!!! As of 2 days ago, when I go to mac.mail program, I can't access any mail in inbox. I can go through the apple/mac program to see my mail. When I go into mail, it just shows an empty box. I can't get into any of the other folders either. And when I want to close mail, I have to force quiet. Any suggestions? I am sitting here in Yemen and have no access to Apple help.
Thanks for any help you can give me!

I don’t fully understand what you say. What are the “mac.mail” and the “apple/mac” programs? Are you saying that you have a .Mac account and that it works fine on the web, but Mail has some problems? Or do you mean something else?
How many mail accounts do you have what type are they (POP, IMAP, .Mac)?

HT1338 What's going on with iCloud (MobileMe)? I'm able to sign in here, but I can't access mail on my Macbook Pro, iPhone, or work computer. I always get an authorization error (user-id or passwork wrong). This has been going on for almost a week now.

The single download means that you won't be able to redownload it from the store without paying, either on a computer's iTunes or an iOS device - it doesn't stop you from copying the audiobook to your other computers or syncing it to your iOS devices, you just can't redownload it. (I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them requiring the one-time download.)
You can download audiobooks on your computer's iTunes and sync them to iOS devices, you do not have to buy them directly on the device (if you do then you can copy them back to your computer's iTunes library by connecting the device and using the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option on your computer's iTunes).
What you are doing to sync them should work i.e.
- connecting the iPad to your Mac
- selecting the iPad on your Mac's iTunes
- selecting its Books tab and selecting the audiobooks that you want to sync to the iPad and syncing/applying that selection.
You should then get an audiobooks option in the Music app on your iPad. If they aren't appearing there then do they show in Settings > General > Usage > Music on the device - if you have audiobooks on the iPad then they should be listed there under an 'audiobooks' heading.
By 'restart the iPad' do you mean a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
You could also try closing its Music app via the iPad's taskbar : Force an app to close in iOS.
And do a soft-reset and retry syncing.
I assume that music and other items sync ok ?

I took Lion off my Macbook Pro and put Snow Leopard back on and now I can't access Mail or iPhoto. How do I get Mail and iPhoto to work with the Snow Leopard I just put back on?

Hi. I was having slowness problems with my Macbook Pro and thought I would re-install Lion but put Snow Leopard back on by mistake. I bought the computer used with Lion on it and don't have access to the USB drive or a username/password to reinstall Lion. Now I can't access Mail or iPhoto since I put Snow Leopard on.
Is there a way to get my Mail and iPhoto working again with Snow Leopard or do I have to "re-upgrade" to Lion?
Thanks!
Steve

You can't. When you converted those libraries to Lion's format, you lost the ability to go backwards. Unless you saved a bootable backup./clone or Time Machine backup of your previous SL installation, you're up the proverbial creek w/o a paddle.

Can't access mail program'

I can't access my mail program on mac book air.
OSX 10.9.5
i deleted 1300 emails at one time. Since then each time I try to enter the mail program, I get kicked out.
I restarted the computer ,after several attempts to access the email program, but still have the problem.
I know my start up disk is almost full.
What can I do now?

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Can't receive mail on Mac mail ! os 10.6-8

hi

now we need what to wait that a guy from apple comes and view the problems, i heard from a friend a girl i know in France i'm in hongkong get the same problem, there a stupid IT made a mistake in mac as usual we get the "regis as we say in french ! "
so any expert or guys found the solution ???

There are a couple of things to try.
First, rename your mail plist file, as sometimes it can become corrupt. You may need to renter your account information the next time you start up mail. So, exit out of mail, then find the file in your library under preferences as com.apple.mail.plist . Rename it to, for example, com.apple.mail.save .
Before you load mail again, go under applications/utilities, bring up the Keychain Access program, and delete any mail ID passwords.
Restart mail, and renter any account information required. If it now works, you can delete the com.apple.mail.save file.
If that doesn't work, download the OS X 10.6.8 combo update from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399 . Before you run it, bring up Disk Utility (on your hard drive in applications/utilities) and repair permissions on your hard drive, run the combo update, then repair permissions again when complete. This will reapply all updates to the operating system, and can sometimes fix odd errors that crop up.

Iphone 4s in settings can't access Notes or Mail. Also can't access mail from home screen. Can't send email. All else is good.

I need help. I have reset my iphone. I have turned it off then on. Still can't launch my built in mail app from home screen. When I try it goes to blank page then right back to home screen view.
In settings for the iphone 4s I can not access Notes or Mail, Contacts,Calendars. When I tap either of the two they highlight in blue and then go right back to Home Screen view. I seem to be able to access everything else in settings with no trouble.
From home screen I have no trouble I can launch the built in utility Notes with no problem. I also can launch Calendars from Home Screen view. My Contacts are still reachable by tapping Phone from H/S view then clicking on contacts.
I can not launch mail. nor can I send email. Also the built in mail app is not showing it is recieving mail either. All else seems fine.
I can log in to my email from Safari on iphone and from my laptop with no problem.
Anyone have any suggestions? My iphone is out of warranty. Apples only suggestions are To pay for support.
Thanks in advance

Just had a thought....was trying to rememberif anything changed last night. I think I installed a mac OS X Security update. That's about the time the trouble started. Any ideas? Thanks.

Just updated to osx, can't access quicken for Mac anymore

I just uploaded OSX to my I-Mac. I like the upgrade but it does not support quicken for Mac 2007 and suddenly I cannot access it. I can purchase quicken essentials for Mac but need to know how I can access the old records and transfer them to the new program. The new upgrade will not open the old files. Do I need to remove the upgrade first?

Quicken has an upgrade for Qicken that will run on a Mac. It is not Quicken Essentials, as far as I know.

After upgrading my ipad 2 to iOS5 I can't access mail, contacts, calendars option

Hi All,
Newbie here so please go easy!
My problem is that after upgrading my iPad 2 to iOS5 I can't access the mail, contacts, calendars option from general settings or even from the Mail program. This is therefore preventing me from setting up anymore than one e-mail account.
Do I need to do a system reset / restore? If so how do I do a system reset in particular?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Thanks for reply. Sorry for delay in responding, for some reason I wasn't able to respond using my iPad so am using my iPhone.
The restrictions have not been enabled at all, so I assume that this should not really make a difference. I also have an iPhone 4 and have upgraded this to iOS5 but have no issues accessing the Mail, Contacts, Calendar option from general settings. This also does not have restrictions enabled therefore appears to have the same setup as my iPad but with no problems.
Sorry once again for the delay in responding.
Many thanks

New Users can't access mail, "Access" granted but still not working! Help!

I am running snow leopard 10.6.6 and I am having an issue where new users cannot log onto their mail accounts from programs nor the web. Though their mailboxes are set up and recieving email just fine. There logins work everywhere else (wiki, blogs, workstations), but when trying to login to mail they get that the username or password is incorrect.
This does not affect the admin. And we have enabled access in the services area of server admin as well as restarted the server. Any other help? I searched and saw that solution but no others. Any help?
It's running on a Mac mini server

Ok I always like to close out my posts. For my new users not being able to login for Mail. The issue with the IMAP with mail clients was resolved by a repair of disk permissions & a restart. Not sure what happened there 100%. But saw that tip in another thread.
Post that, I was still unable to log into webmail for users. They were getting an error:
ERROR Error connecting to IMAP server: localhost. 61 : Connection refused
This was caused by the fact that i set IMAP to REQUIRE SSL, but for some reason Squirrel Mail did not reconfigure itself to match those settings. So to do that, you have to use terminal to put up an admin for Squirrelmail.
Enter
sudo /usr/share/squirrelmail/config/conf.pl
this pulls up an easy config menu for Squirrel mail. I needed to change two things, under SERVER SETTINGS, then UPDATE IMAP SETTINGS, then you have to change both IMAP PORT to 993 and SECURE IMAP to YES. Save and Quit ad you are up and running.
Hope this helps the next person!

Access Mail on Mac Server with non-Apple device

I currently have a Windows server with Exchange installed and am considering replacing it with a Mac Server. IF I do that, can my non-Apple Windoes 7 & XP computers access Mail on the Mac Server as they now do with Exchange?

Yes and no. You will be able to access mail via IMAP but you will have a dickens of a time getting Address Book and Calendars to work. Apple uses CardDAV and CalDAV respectively for these services. Your options on WIndows are limited. See here for options:
http://caldav.calconnect.org/implementations/clients.html

If you are looking for something to "replace" Exchange, then check out Kerio Connect.
