  • I can't open mail settings in ios5

    When I go to 'mail, calendar, and contacts' in settings, it hangs.  My company has active sync enabled and i had setup my sync with exchange prior to upgrading to IOS 5.  Now it won't load any mail or mail settings.  The calendar for some strange reason seems to work.  Anyone else having this issue?

    Re:: to my previous post....
    It turns out, after I have disabled iCloud on my MacMini ( I deslected all options, and signed out from iCloud ) and ater restoring the phone one more time to iOS5.0, now everything is working just fine.
    I am pretty sure, I didn't have to restore the phone
      (turn off the phone, then enter DFU mode by pressing power+home button for 10seconds untill black  screen, then release power button and keep holding home button for another 10 seconds, doing all this with iTunes started)
    and it would have been sufficient to just disable all iCloud settings on my Mac and sign out from iCloud but I can't be now 100% sure which one did it.
    During the restore, I chose "Do not use iCloud" when asked.
    I have deleted iCloud from phone prior to all these actions, but it did not help. It might be necessary though, to sign out from iCloud from your devices.
    Now, Mail settings can be accessed, I have setup my Gmail and Yahoo accounts with no issues. Everything works just fine.
    Now, I will have to search for iCloud documentation, because it definately needs better understanding.
    iCloud takes presedence over all your settings and it is not clear in what manner it is doing it.
    I hope this helps, and good luck..

    Hello tomzmem,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    This situation does sound very frustrating. I know that you have tried some great troubleshooting steps already and the issue remains unresolved. Have you forced the Mail application to close and then opened it back fresh? If not, this is the next troubleshooting step I would suggest. Please let me know if the issue remains unresolved.

  • TS3274 I can't delete mail nor can i open the Settings. It opens for a sec and then closes. any ideas?

    Mail closes when I attempt to read or delete messages
    I can't open the Settings. It opens for a sec and then closes. any ideas

    First try to reset your device by holding the home and power button for about 30 seconds until you see a silver apple, after that let go of the buttons and let your device start up normally. This will not remove any settings or information from your device.

  • Can Not Open Mail CNOM

    -The application Mail quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Relaunch to launch the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple.
    The above error message appears after I attempt to open the Mail application. Recently the Mail icon was a question mark, however it was found but still clicking on it I can not open Mail. After attempting to click Relaunch twice in a row, during a third time the follow error message appears:
    -Do you want to resent application settings for Mail? The application quit unexpectedly after itwas relaunched. Resetting the application settings may fix the problem. You will be givethe opportunity to restore your original settings when you quit the applications.
    When I click Reset and Relaunch I am brought back the error mentioned I previously encountered first, ergo the whole problem beings again, and the same thing happens again when I click Relaunch.
    When I click Ignore or Do Not Relaunch the application quits, of course. When I click Report the application sends a 'report' page.
    Somebody please help me get my mail working again. Thank you.

    Really? Nobody has any idea?

    Thank you for the very clear basic instructions—helpful for a newbie.…Also my first screen shot !! I see that it does not have .App next to it
    Most likely because you have Finder's preferences->Advanced->Show all filename extensions unchecked. Check it, log out, and back in and all the apps should display the .app extension.
    Now, back to your problem. If you installed the Security Update 2012-004, it failed to update Mail to 4.6; thus, your problem. Manually DL it from http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586 and reinstall it.

  • You can't open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac.

    I updated my Mac to Mavericks and after that, I can't open the Mail, Contacts and Calendar preferences.
    Every time I try, I get the following message:
    "You can’t open Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences because it doesn’t work on an Intel-based Mac."
    I tried this workaround from the Mountain Lion thread (https://discussions.apple.com/message/21303574#21303574) but it didn't worked.
    Further I deleted all files in the Library Preferences folder, but it didn't helped also.
    Can anyone help me please?

    Hi Michael,
    I had the same problem. And I found a fix.
    I noticed that on a different system running Mavericks without any problems, the preference pane isn't called 'Mail, Contacts & Calendars' anymore, it's now called 'Internet accounts'. The fact that it's still called by the old name on your system, means it somehow wasn't replaced while updating to Mavericks.
    So the cure is pretty easy:
    On a different Mavericks system, go to /System/Library/PreferencePanes/ and copy the file InternetAccounts.prefPane. Take it to the system you're trying to fix, and paste the prefPane file in the same directory. Reboot, and it should all work fine. At least it did in my case.
    Cheers

  • When I open the settings and messages of the iPhone 4s I get stuck in a white screen, what should I do? the keyboard to open there is minute, I can not open the settings in any way.

    when I open the settings and messages of the iPhone 4s I get stuck in a white screen, what should I do? the keyboard to open there is minute, I can not open the settings in any way.

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

  • How can you configure mail settings in process chains?

    HI Experts,
    please let me know how can you configure mail settings in process chains?

    Dear Suman,
    To initiate the mails we first need to have SMTP connection. To check the same go to so00 and try sending mails to ur ID. If is successful it states that u have the SMTP access.
    To create mails to Process chains:
    Right Click on the Process varient select the Create Message in the context menu.
    Select the type of mail i.e for successful, Error, Anyways.
    Then follow the screens.
    Note: The recipient type should be Via Internet.
    Hope this helps u.
    Regards,
    Kishore.Pulla

  • Can't open mail or safari after update

    I updated my software when the notice came up and after shutting down and restarting, I can't open mail or safari or itunes. The icons bounce as if starting and then nothing. Can anyone help me with this? I know very little about computers. I am writing this on a PC. (Yikes)

    Hi cantfindwan, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
