Cannot read or create any new Notes in Mail

As per previous post, my 4 out of 6 notes from my iPhone synced with Mail some months ago (since 3.1 OS uprade).
BUT, I've never been able to open those Notes, or even create new Notes in Mail on my Mac. To Do's seem to be ok, but not Notes.
Managed to setup MobileMe Mail on Mail on my Mac now too (refused all yesterday). I'm also bringing in Hotmail there too.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Try this - find the /Library/Preferences folder in your user/Home folder and then locate and delete this file:
com.apple.mail.plist
*Caution* - doing this may clear your account settings to be sure to note those first in the event you are required to reconfigure, etc.
And be sure to verify/repair permissions using Disk Utility (/Applications/Utilities folder)

  • TS3276 I created a new mailbox in mail, but it does not show up in my list

    I created a new mailbox in mail, but it does not show up in my list of mailboxes. Now I cannot change it or delete it. I keep getting an error message that I must resolve conflicts, but it won't let me change anything.  Can you help me fix this?

  • I can't create any new reminders on my iPhone 5S with iOS 8.

    Hi.
    I have a 16 GB iPhone 5S with iOS 8.1.3. The problem I have is that I can't create any new reminders, at all. The problem started with my iPhone 4 (which I had before this phone), and I was using iOS 7 when the problem arose (but it didn't start immediately after I switched to iOS 7).
    One day when I had the iPhone 4, I noticed that all my reminders had disappeared, and that I couldn't create any mew ones because the New List + button is grayed out. I didn't try to fix it until I got my 5S. I got to the "Scheduled" list and was able to type in a reminder (I thought I was a genius). But then when the time I'd set for the reminder actually came around, nothing happened, and when I checked Reminders, the reminder I'd entered was gone.
    I tried using Siri to set a reminder but she said she couldn't.
    I've tried Googling it, but it just says to press the + button to make a new list, and then start typing.
    I recently got a MacBook Air which I synced up to my phone, and all my old reminders from my iPhone 4 are there, and I can create new reminders. Except they don't show up on my phone (which I think they're supposed to do, right?). They do show up on my computer, though.
    I've taken to emailing myself things I need to remember, which is fine, I guess, but sometimes they get buried in my inbox.
    Any help would be fantastic!
    Also, if you'd like me to clarify anything, I'm happy to do so because I don't know how much sense this makes.
    Thanks so much!

    I have exactly the same problem. I discovered it yesterday.
    I have a 16 GB iPhone 4 with iOS 7.1.2, just to note that we both are using different devices and different iOS versions. I will add here some screenshots of the problem.

  • How do I create a new note in Notes 7.1.1

    I am unable to figure out how to create a new note in the iOS 7.1.1 Notes app on my iPad Mini. There is no "New" button like there is on my phone. I have multiple accounts activated, including iCloud, but I cannot find any way in Notes to create a new note in any account.
    I can go to my iPhone, create a new note there in iCloud, and see it on the Mini, I just can't figure out how to create a new one on the iPad...
    I've gotta be missing something obvious, but I cannot figure this out. Does anybody know how to create a new note in the Notes app running iOS 7.1 on an iPad mini?
    Thanks!

    That is an "edit" button. Since there's ALWAYS one of my existing notes "selected", clicking on that icon simply edits the selected item. I can't figure out a way to "unselect" one of my notes (so that none of them are selected), all I can do is "edit".
    There is an actual "New" button in that top bar on the iPHone version of the app, but in the iPad mini, I can't find a "new" button (or a way to unselect all my notes so that edit button would act as a new button).

  • TS4002 Can't create any alias in iCloud mail, see message "Cannot save alias.

    Can't create any alias in iCloud mail, see message "Cannot save alias. This alias cannot be saved at this time". I tried different variations at different dates (I thought this is temporary issue) but this not helped me. Perhaps some of you have resolved this issue and can tell me how I can do it?

    Do you see in account settings two email addresses - with "@me.com" and "@icloud.com"? Or only "@me.com"? In second case just wait - your account will be updated in some time. I've waiting from summer and my account was updated in one day as soon as I've start this discussion   When your account will be updated - you will see in preferences two addresses, with "@me.com" and with "@icloud.com".

  • When I create a new mailbox in mail.app, the mailbox does not appear in the list of mailboxes

    I am trying to create a new mailbox in mail.app, but it never appears in the list of mailboxes. This USED TO WORK.

    Without seeing anything of what you did there is not much to go on except to say that when you create a classic tween you use a library-based object and it has to exist at both ends of the tween.  When motion guides come into play you usually have to fiddle around when making the link between the object and the motion guide to get the object to lock to it.

    You are talking about the forward, back, mail and trash can icons in the Notes App - correct?
    I've gone through restarting it and followed the instructions from the person last week.
    Have you restarted the iPad - is that what you mean? Have you quit and then restarted the app? Quit the app, and restart the iPad. It's worth a try.
    Double tap the home button and your recent apps will appear at the bottom. Hold down on the Notes app icon until it begins to wiggle. Then tap the minus sign to quit the app. Then tap the screen. Now restart the iPad.
    Carolyn explained this above (restart) but here it is again....
    Hold down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and slide to shut off. Hold down on the sleep button until the Apple logos appears then let go of the button and the iPad will restart. See if that helps.

  • Cannot make new notes in mail

    Hello I can't make new notes in Mail.
    The last thing I could do with notes was making a note and pasting a screenshot .png in it. When I wanted to open that note it kept loading for ever. I deleted all notes I had because none of them would load, but that made no difference.
    Situation now is:
    The button is visible but won't work, trying to create a new note via "archive>new note" doesnot work either.
    I followed suggestions from other threads on this topic:
    • rebuilded all my postboxes - no result
    • resetted my mobile me sync settings - no result
    • deleted my rss feeds in mail - no result
    My colleague has the same problem, what we have in common is we both use iphones synced with mobile me, and received rss feeds in mail (I deleted this function in mail to check if thats the problem - but that didn't make a difference).
    Stays the iphone-syncing or something else I am not aware of.
    Has anyone a suggestion?
    It would be great help!
    Rob

    I noticed this problem with Notes being inaccessible on my Macs a few weeks ago and just now took the time to track down the reason. Thanks to everyone on this thread, in particular PlanetLingo and M1CH43L.
    It seems that iOS 4.3 added a new default font for Notes called "Noteworthy." I think the problem arrises for those of us who sync iOS devices and our Macs through MobileMe and include Notes and Preferences in the sync. I think the font switch and subsequent sync of Preferences cause the Mac to default to a font it doesn't have, which then causes all the problems.
    Quck fix: Change the Notes preference on your iOS devices to use one of the alternate fonts: Helvetica or Marker Felt. As long as the one you choose is available on our Macs, the problem should go away.
    A search of the web doesn't reveal an Apple version of Noteworthy available for the Mac. If anyone finds one, please post here. Thanks.

  • Can't create any new Bookmarks.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Notes App: I start a new note, start typing and the App creates numerous new notes every 3 seconds

    Here is a strange problem I have with my Notes App which I am now using regularly in 10.8.2 since it syncs to all my Macs/iPad/iPhone:
    I open the Notes App. I then wait for it to finish "Updating". I then add a New Note clicking the plus botton. As I type, after a couple of seconds it creates a new Note, so I have 2 notes. Then again as I keep typing - more notes. The "Top" Note has everything I typed and the ones below have 1 line less per Note! i.e. it saves a new note then moves on when I carry on typing!
    This is a very strange problem and it is new to me - I have been using this App for the past few weeks with no problem.

    Thanks for this, it really helped. I had just upgraded to 10.8 on this and the Notes app was installed - so it synced to my other Notes accounts.
    The strange thing was that the default was to my Hotmail account even though I also have iCloud and Gmail accounts set up, too.
    I have followed your suggestion and now only have iCloud Notes - and this works perfectly.
    Thanks!

  • I wanted to send some photos out but was told I need to create a new profile, use mail icon in control panel no icon there how do I get it done?

    I want to send some photos from Firefox, when I tried it said I need to create a new profile, use mail icon in control panel. I went to control panel and do not know what to do.'''bold text'''

    As all of the msuic came from your computer in the first place it should still be there.  Is it not?
    EVERYTHING on your ipod should also be on your computer and should be included in your regular backup copy of your computer.
    Make sure that everything is on your computer.  You can transfer itunes purchases from the ipod.  Without syncing:  File>Transfer Purchases.
    When everything is on your computer, then it can be synced back to the ipod after updating.

  • Creating a new group in Mail

    Is there an easy way to create a new group in mail (or I guess it's really the Address book) from an email I already sent  to a group of people. I don't want to copy each name one by one if it's not necessary.  Thanks, Jack

    Each email address in the group is put in the To: field automatically when you put them all in the BCC field when composing the email. Nobody sees anything except their own email address.
    I think you are mistaken there, Golden. If the To: field is blank the recipients in the Bcc field will see the To: as undisclosed-recipients - if they get anything at all; some ISPs will reject a message with a blank To:. I would agree with putting the target recipients in the Bcc, but when doing this I usually put my own address in the To: field.

  • How do I create a new folder in mail?

    How do I create a new folder in mail on iPad 2?
    I already know what the manual says, but I can do nothing to make the NEW FOLDER button appear.
    I have turned OFF "Organize by Thread" in SETTINGS.
    I think there is something else going on that I missed.
    Clues appreciated...

    For IMAP Mail, you can hit the Edit button to add New Mailbox.
