Excel file in mail will not open in numbers
I received an email with an excel file, and when I go to open it , numbers quits and won't open it.
I have recently had to replace my hard drive on my 24 " imac , and I am running osx 10.8.5
I never had this problem before.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Do you know the version of Excel and version of Number's installed? Also, please describe the method you are using for opening the document. I've had good luck by simply dragging the Excel file to the Numbers icon in the Dock.

Safari and Mail will not open.
Just opened Pwer Mac G4 with 10.4.11 but Safari and Mail will not open. Have all software updates. Firefox open and browses. What could be wrong?
Hi-
Try booting in Safe mode and see if the applications work there.
Hold Shift while starting to boot to Safe mode.
If things work, reboot normally and see if the issue is resolved.
If not, download and install the 10.4.11 Combo Update and install (again is not a problem).
This should correct any issues due to absent files.

Mail will not open in old PPC after migration to MBP
Hi, I had my data migrated from my Mac 10.5.8 PPC to my new MBP this month. Everything is fine on new machine. I want to be able to use old PPC too, but mail will not open. I can send and receive, but not open any emails. Any ideas for a fix appreciated.
Thanks!Did you use Time Machine for backups?
Did you use Time Machine to transition to the MBP?
How did you copy the files?
Maybe there was a permissions glitch when you moved them? -
Hi, I have recently updated my OS X to Maverick. when I did, my mail programme (Mail) will not open - for me only. There are 4 other users of the iMac, and they don't appear to have any problems.
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive. -

Mail will not open from dock and wont allow me to shut down, Help?
My mail will not open from the dock and if I try and close my computer it is prevented by the application mail being open. Help please.
You can try to Force Quit the Mail application by using the keys OPTION COMMAND ESC, from the window that pops up select Mail and clcik force quit.
Have you tried launching Mail from your Applications folder? It launches properly, drag the icon off the dock, it should vanish in a puff of smoke, you can then go to the Applcations folder and drag the Mail icon back to the dock to create a new shortcut. -
I have an iPhone and new iPad. Epost mail will not open on my devices. Epost says Safari is not compatible with epost. Please address this issue. It is most annoying.
Hello:
You need to contact "epost." The issue is not an Apple issue....the epost software needs, I assume, to be updated.

My iPad mail will not open. Have restarted, but still will not open
My ipad 2 mail will not open. Touch mail, it moves to mail for a couple seconds then jumps back to main menu... Have restarted and reset, but does not change anything.
BobClose the mail app and reset your iPad.
Closing apps in iOS 7 works like this. Drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If that doesn't work, you might want to consider deleting the account and adding it back in - or going into your account on a computer - using webmail - and look for an email that has a large attachment that might be causing problems and causing the mail app to crash. -

Mail will not open when I click on the icon. "Mail" appears in menu bar and in force quit but nothing happens. Please help. I am using Mac OSX 10.7.5.
Will it open directly from the Applications folder? If not, try re-installing the 10.7.5 Combo updater. It's OK to re-install the update over your existing OS, but before doing so, ensure you have full backup you can restore from should the need arise (it shouldn't, but it's always a good idea to have a recovery plan in place before you need one).
