Cannot access some received emails on my PC - they're displayed, but cannot be opened

All emails are displayed on the main page. However, starting this past week, some emails became inaccessible. They do not show a preview when I click once. And, when I double-click on those emails, they display the contact info from the last email I had looked at.

If there was some sort of corruption it's quite possible that some messages are gone.
Inbox is most susceptible to corruption. Therefore make sure to keep your Inbox as empty as possible to reduce the risk of losing messages.
Creating backups on a regular basis is recommended as well.

  • Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all.

    Using Outlook 2007 I want to receive emails on my iPhone 4 only when Outlook is NOT open on my computer, as when away from home or want to quickly check email when computer is not turned on. Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else?  I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

    No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

  • HT1277 my email displays but will not open, just the spinning icon

    My email displays but will not open in my laptop or ipad.  I just keep getting the spinning icon.  I can recieve emails on my iphone.  Any suggestions?

    If Mail.app will launch on OS X and you can get to the Preferences settings and related, see the Apple Mail.app troubleshooting article for some suggestions.  From there, get that working, then compare the differences between what's working and connecting, and what's not — the Connection Doctor and the Activity window should give you a pretty good idea of where things are hanging up — if not directly what's wrong — when troubleshooting the OS X Mail.app connection.

    I also got Motion and can't figure out how to use it with Final Cut Pro X. Any help woud be great. Thanks

    I have no idea what may have caused your MacBook to stop working, but from your description it kind of sounds like it may have started before you ran Software Update and installed the new Apps. Just the general slow feeling and bugginess is what tips me off. You said that you weren't sure if you had closed all open windows, that doesn't matter if the computer restarts itself. It automatically closes all other open applications when restarting.
    As to your data being retrievable, if when you take it in they do a fresh install of the OS, then no, it will not be unless you want to pay several thousand dollars to a software retrieval company.
    I am glad to hear that you have taken into the Apple Store to get it fixed, and that you have all of your purchased music backed up to your iPod. You should be able to just transfer it all back to iTunes once you get your computer back should it be necessary.
    As a side note, the proper place for this topic would probably in the MacBook forums, not iTunes since there is no evidence that iTunes started the issue.

  • How do you access "trouble shoot" for mail.  My AOL account is set up on the mail icon but it some how defaulted to another Wi fi account and could not receive email.  We reset the the Wifi but somehow didn't complete the process.

    How do you access "trouble shoot" for mail.  Our AOL account is set up on the mail icon but somehow it defaulted onto another nearby Wifi account while everything else that was running stayed on our router.  We were unable to receive email on the AOL account and were directed to trouble shoot.  We reset the Wifi account but somehow didn't save it correctly.  Now we cannot get back in to reset it again.  Direction??

    Hello
    I don't really understand your question. The Mail application cannot independently access a different wifi network from the one your computer is using.
    Are you trying to troubleshoot your wifi (ie, you can't get into your own wireless network), or the Mail program (you can't get email)? Are there any error messages you see when you try to do one or the other?

  • HI I HAVE JUST DOWNLOADED THE LATEST SOFTWERE TO MY IPAD2 BUT WHEN I TRIED TO GO ON ICLOUD IT SAID IT NEEDED TO SEND AN EMAIL TO ME TO VERIFY MY ACCOUNT BUT WHEN I OPEN THE EMAIL IT WON'T ALLOW ME TO VERIFY

    Hi I have just downloaded the latest softwere to my ipad 2 but when i tried to open icloud it wanted to verify my account.So a email was sent to me but when i open the email and click on the link to verify nothing happens

    I might be able to experiment with this a little.
    Are you running a recent version of Outlook Web App (i.e., Exchange 2010)?
    When you save files using IE, what format are they in (e.g., EML, RTF, HTML)?

  • TS3276 Ever since I upgraded to OSX Lion I have not been able to receive email from Comcast.  I can send but not receive.  I have dealt with Comcast on several occassions and after trying all the usual remedies they cannot get it to work.

    After several attempts with Comcast to fix the problem of receiving mail, I am hoping someone here can give me sound advice.  Ever since I upgraded to OXS Lion I can send email through Comcast account but, cannot receive it

    Please detail ALL you have done so far in the way of troubleshooting?   Need this info to avoid the been there done that scenarios that you have already tried w/Comcast.
    ==============
    Your post states you are using Lion.
    Your system profile confirms you are using Snow Leopard (OS 10.6.8)
    You posted in the Mountain Lion forums (OS 10.8.)

  • I can't access some of my PDF files because they haven't been replaced with the proper documents

    I was emailed three PDF files, two of these I can't access and the following message shows up:
    Please wait...
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF
    viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by
    visiting http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.

    I have downloaded the latest adobe (XI), restarted my computer, cleared my search history on chrome, tried opening the files with internet explorer, and tried getting someone from the adobe chat service to fix the problem. None of these have proved successful.
    Please help I need these two files in order to commence my new job. Please don't use complicated, technological language because I won't understand.

    Hi Hollyr,
    Certain PDF files (dynamic XFA forms) created in Adobe LiveCycle can only be opened in Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat. When you try to open these files in an alternative PDF viewer, then you will see this error message.
    Unfortunately, it's not easy remove this message and modify the PDF so that it can be opened in alternative PDF viewers. The person who created the original form must re-create the form using options that do not restrict which PDF viewers can open and display the file.
    Adobe has made the decision that since very few non-Adobe products support these special PDF files, that it is better to show this message -- and require the user to download Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat -- than it is to let the PDF viewer try to render the document. You might want to ask the user to Reader-extend the documents so that you can view it with Adobe Reader.
    Regards,
    Rave

  • I can't retrieve my i tunes password from email. apple tells me they sent it but i do not receive?

    i can't retrieve my i tunes password. once i request resent password to email authentication, apple says it was sent, not in my inbox?

    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.

  • How can I get Firefox 3.0 to work as a browser on my iBook G4 with OS10.3.9 so I can work my Hotmail email account? The download loads OK but will not open to a browser page when I double click on it. Tom.

    Have been using Firefox 2.0 just fine for years. But now stupid Windows Live Hotmail has made it impossible for me to "use" my email, such as doing Bcs or Attaching something, or even typing new text in the message box. Hotmail tells me I have to update my Firefox browser. But updating to Firefox 3.0 due my OS system limits does not now allow me to open onto the internet even after a successful download of 3.0. Tom.

    Firefox 3 will not run on OS X 10.3.9, it requires at least 10.4
    Try one of these browsers to see if you can access Hotmail - [http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey1.1.19/ SeaMonkey 1.1.19] or [http://caminobrowser.org/download/ Camino 1.6.11]

  • Email links to open a web page do not display in my email using Firefox. They do display using Internet Explorer. Why?

    My email account on Network Solutions site no longer show links sent to me. Someone sent me an email with a link for me to click on to fill out an online form. The link did not display. If I forward the email to another account, I can see the links. If I open the email in Explorer, it also displays the link. Why does Firefox 18 not display the links?

  • Brand new iPad. I cannot find my files. I know that they were loaded but when I open "audiobooks" it takes me to the iTunes store. How do I find my own audiobooks?

    Where do my files go after I have synced them to my iPad. I watched them transfer from my computer to my iPad but where are they now? For instance, I am trying to find my audiobooks but when I click audiobooks, it takes me to the iTunes store for audiobooks but I cannot find my books there either.

    They should have downloaded into the Videos app (iTunes on the iPad is just the iTunes store) :
    If they aren't in there then have you got a film age rating set in Settings > General > Restrictions that is hiding them ?
