Good morning...all of a sudden my email stopped working and the screen displayed nothing at all.

I tried to log out but it said to try again quit mail and choose log out from the apple menu.  I went to quit mail but it was faded out and I could not click on it.  I then went to the task bar at the bottom and tried to click on mail but nothing happened.  I also turned off my computer and turned it back on again, email still not available.  This just seems to be on my iMac.  I am receiving email messages on my iPhone and iPad.  Oh, Safari still works on my iMac!!
Help.....

You've left out some very basic information: iMac model  and Mac OS version.
There are four broad familues of iMac going back to 1998, and they have different troubeshooting procedures. Please do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu to see your OSX version, While there tell what the same window says for "Processor." That will at least narrow your model to its family.

  • Is it a common occurance for an iPad 4th gen to just blank out and stop working?  The screen shows nothing at all, no sounds but it registers on my computer when connected.

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

  • All of a sudden my iTunes stopped working, and I get the following error messages:   1. the program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem   and   2. iTunes was not installed correct

    All of a sudden my iTunes stopped working, and I get the following error messages:
    1. the program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem
    and
    2. iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126).
    Now I've checked the forums and followed the advice of uninstalling all Apple applications, rebooting, and reinstalling iTunes.
    This is not working. I've tried installing as Administrator but doesn't make any difference at all.
    There must be a way to fix this? I'm not a tech geek but I want to avoid having to take my laptop back to factory settings to sort this out.
    Thanks

    Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

  • All of a sudden, call phones stopped working and I...

    This is ridiculous! Skype call to phones is no longer working and Skype does not provide either a phone number to call, an email, or live chat support to resolve the problem.
    There is no explanation to the problem. It simply stopped working: you type in the number, click "Call" and ... nothing happens!
    I tried upgrading to the latest Skype version (or as they say "Improve my Skype experience") and nothing... still not working.
    If others are experiencing this I wonder if we could ask regulatory authorities in the US to take action against Skype for fraud, as they charge for a service that they don't provide.

  • Hello All, I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned grey giving me zero visibility or access to the computer. Has anyone else seen or had this problem? Is it fixable or should I get a new unit?

    Hello all,
    I have a Model - MacBook Pro Laptop and the screen recently turned the colour grey, giving me no visibility or access to the unit.
    Has anyone had or seen this problem before? Can it be fixed? I had a repair guy from my local Mac Store take a look at it - he said I needed a whole new screen and top of the computer, but this didn't fix the problem. I took the unit home unrepaired, and a week later it was all of a sudden working fine.
    What is happening with my Laptop? Once this happens (grey screen) does it mean that it's going to become a chronic problem?
    Please advise....Thanks

    It's kind of difficult to diagnosis your problem without a visual clue, because there is a (mostly) software based "gray screen" at boot issue.
    But if you got the screen replaced, took it home and now it works, why the repair shop didn't get it working before it left the store is beyond me.
    Unless the repair shop is a authorized apple reseller/repair, I wouldn't have taken it to them, and of you did, they should have fixed the issue right away.

    Hello Suzanne,
    Thank you for providing the details of iTunes unexpectedly quitting.  You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already.  I found an article with additional steps you can take to further isolate and troubleshoot an issue like the one you described:

  • I have a iPad 1. All of a sudden, when I turn it on, the screen is grayish/black. I tried turning it on and off, but the thing won't work. Please help! I just brought it like 3 months ago!

    Ok so, I own an iPad 1. I was using it and you know playing games and all. All of a sudden, the screen went black/grayish. I payed a lot of money for it, this is the second one I had to buy because the first one I owned broke. Could some water have gone in it? Please, help me. I can't buy another one. Please, reply ASAP.

    Might be hardware failure. Take the iPhone to the nearest Apple store
    for evaluation. Make a Genius Bar appointment to avoid delay at the store.

  • All of a sudden my iPod stopped playing and a dark gray Apple logo came up.

    I was listening to my iPod nano for about 30 minutes but 20 minutes into playing, it all of a sudden stopped and an Apple logo against a dark gray background popped up. I held down the center and menu button to perform a reset and it has been working fine ever since but I am worried that this might signal a premature death to my iPod.
    What caused this? I never fiddled with any menus or buttons while playing my music so it didn't occur by me inputting anything. What does that screen mean? I've had my iPod for 3 months and always listen to it in one hour intervals (since I commute to work in the city) and this never happened before.

    Some people have told me something similar a few years ago... they said that they didn't do anything for a few days then their iPods resurrected (lol)... don't know if this can happen to these new iPods too, I haven't experienced this. So you should wait for a few (4-5 days) and if nothing happens then bring it back to the shop.

  • All of a sudden, AeX wireless stopped working

    Hi All-
    Last night I was moving around some cables and momentarily had to unplug the ethernet cable going to my Airport Express. Here is the setup:
    WWW->cablemodem->nic1-linuxrouter/firewall
    |>nic2-linuxrouter/firewall4ptswitchAeX
    I have 2 wireless clients:
    PB 15" w/ OSX.4.3
    Windows XP SP2
    All has been working great for over a year now. Since unplugging and replugging in the ethernet cable to AeX, my AeX no longer seems to be working as a wireless device. The light is solid green, but the wireless SID does not show up under my list of available networks for either client machine.
    I saved my baseconfig profile and I have tried a soft-reset as well as a hard-reset, reuploading the baseconfig to try to get it to work. The only way I can access the AeX is via a hardwire ethernet connection to either the switch or the AeX directly.
    Does anybody have any ideas why the wireless no longer seems to be working just by unplugging and replugging in the ethernet cable? Wireless settings are properly enabled.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Unplug and leave for ten minutes (or overnight) before plugging back in.
