How to delete and reinstall mail under mavericks os

How do I delete my mail and reinstall under mavericks os?

First, I would suggest using Mail->Mailbox->Export to back up your mail.
Quit Mail
Then, to set-up Mail clean, delete
      ~/Library/Mail Downloads/
      ~/Library/Mail/
      ~/Containers/com.apple.mail/
     (all previous preferences and mail will be gone)
Open Mail
You will be prompted to set up Mail.
To re-install the Mail App, you need to re-install Mavericks (hold ⌘R on boot)

How do I remove and reinstall Mail under iOS?

My Mail program with both my iPad 2 and my iPhone 4S keeps growing constantly in size. My iPad Mail is now at 1.7 GB. ALL messages are deleted, trash is deleted, etc. The program just isn't reclaiming storage after deletions.
I filed a bug with Apple as an Apple Developer but, after about 3 weeks, I got a message from Apple indicating that the bug had been removed because it was a duplicate. In other words, other people also have this problem (it is possible that ALL people may not have it).
Two upgrades ago, my iPad had to totally re-install from scratch (something went wrong with the upgrade). The Mail program went back to about 50 MB. As mentioned, it has now grown back to 1.7 GB (on iPad 2, only 1.4 GB on my iPhone). At this size, it is taking a significant amount of my RAM -- it was probably the reason the upgrade failed two times ago (not enough free RAM).
I need to remove my mail program and reinstall it -- or even completely refresh my iPhone/iPad. I keep hoping Apple will fix the problem but 7.1.2 still hasn't fixed it.
How do I remove and reinstall Mail (or -- at the worst -- refresh the entire iOS device (using backups from iCloud for important settings)?
Thank you. It will probably be up to 2+ GB by the end of July.

You may a bit mixed up in your terms.
RAM in an iPad/iPhone is like the RAM in your computer. It's used to run the operating system and open apps.
On the other hand, your storage space (16GB, 32GB, etc) is like the capacity of your computer's hard drive.
If you are short of storage space, look at these links.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

How do delete and reinstall Lightroom 5 using Creative Cloud?

Hello, it seems (according to support) that I have a corrupt version of Lightroom 5 and I need to delete and reinstall. I actually have a version that is not corrupt but when I try to do a Edit it, such as open in layers or merge to hdr, it will default to the corrupt version. So bottom line how to I end up with one version that is not corrupt. I read something about accessing uninstaller in utilities but I don't see Lightroom listed. I do see Creative Cloud listed. Is that what I am supposed to uninstall?
Thanks,
J. Paul

Thanks for your help here but I resolved this problem but created a much larger one by not backing up my Lightroom .lrcat properly. While working with Adobe support I didn't do a Lightroom backup (my mistake) and I lost the current 2014 edits that were in that catalog. I had to revert to a much older catalog backup. I was under the (wrong) impression that if I was doing daily backups with Time Machine and Drobo that my catalog was intact.
Regards,
Paul

Deleting and Reinstalling Mail Application

I was having an issue with a specific Mail inbox. In trying to fix it I have really just gotten lost and Mail isn't working for me at all now. Is it possible to wipe it clean and reinstall. I put the Leopard DVD in and attempted a custom install but it won't just load Mail-plus I am using later version now. Can someone tell me how to do this? Thanks.

How to Use Pacifist to Replace Deleted OS X Applications
Download the shareware utility Pacifist from VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Use it to extract a fresh copy of the missing item(s) from the file archives on your OS X installation DVD. The file archives are in the /System/Installations/ folder (use Go to Folder option in the Go menu of the Finder.)
Here are Four Basic ways to use Pacifist (courtesy of George Orville.)
A. Drag a .pkg icon onto the Pacifist window .....proceed to step 7.
B. Click on “Open Package ....” and navigate to package desired and click “Open” in the open/save window.....proceed to step 7.
C. Insert Mac OS X installer CD and when it mounts, navigate to .... Menu->Go->Go to Folder.
In the path field enter or paste ....
/Volumes/disc name/System/Installation/Packages (where disc name is the name of the CD/DVD that you inserted.
• Click on the "Go" button .....
• Drag a .pkg to Pacifist..... proceed to step 7.
The package you'll need will have to be discovered by trial and error, but for most applications you should start with the Essentials.pkg and/or Additional Essentials.pkg.
D. Insert your Mac OS X install disk 1 .... and open Pacifist.
1. In Pacifist, select "Open Mac OS X Install Packages" ... dialog may appear asking for disk 2, then disk 3 and finally disk 1 again.... {if DVD is not used)...If “Stop Loading” is selected...the procedure will stop!!!
2a. When loading is complete, a new window appears, click the triangle to display contents of each package...Select item and proceed to step 7.
2b. or click the “Find” icon in the Pacifist window and type the name of the software you need.
3. In the list that comes back, click the top most entry for the item that you want. ..... that is the one for the English language.
4. On the top of the Pacifist window, click “verify” .... you will probably be prompted for your password.
5. Enter checks for.... “verify permissions” and “verify file contents.” and click “verify” ....enter password when prompted.... you will get back output which may look like this:
20 files were scanned.
20 of 20 files were present on the hard disk.
0 of 20 files had file permissions that did not match those specified in the package.
0 of 20 files had checksums that did not match those specified in the package.
6. Click “close”. Go to step 7.
Extract or Install........
7. In the Toolbar (upper left), you now have the option to extract or install. Click a file in the lower list and those two icons will be enabled.
8. If “Extract to...” is selected.... navigate to the location where the file will be placed, select “choose”, select “extract” in new dialog that appears,authenicate , if prompted, click “OK”.
9. In the next dialog, click “Extract”.
10. If “Install” is selected... dialog will appear with the location/path of the installed software. Click “Install”
11. Type in your password, click “OK”
• Pacifist will begin to extract files.
12. In steps 8/10ß.... you also have the choice to “cancel”
Notes.....
• Pacifist may find that a file it is installing already exists on the hard disk. Pacifist will present you with an alert panel....
Stop
Leave original alone
Update ..... Default selection
Replace .... Replace option should only be used on full install packages
Unless the version on the Leopard DVD is 10.5.3 you will need to reinstall the 10.5.3 combo updater.

Why are all of my hotmail folders not showing up? They previously were and now the only thing that shows up his inbox and trash. I have tried deleting and reinstalling hotmail under settings and add mail account but it is still only giving me the inbox.

I can access all my folders in hotmail when I log on from google but they don't show up and just the general mailbox. I don't want to have to logon to Google every time I want to check my Hotmail but I also need to be able to see all my subfolders that I created under the inbox. There are many time to do not wish to delete the message but at the same time I don't want to leave them in the inbox forever. I tried restarting my iPhone 4s which has the update seven-point whatever it is now and also went and try to create an exchange account where it did not let me do it. Any help or suggestions as welcome. If you could please send answer to my email at [email protected] I would really appreciate it and I probably will forget my password here to get back on again

Try deleting your hotmail account and then adding it back as an Outlook account instead of "other". It worked for me.

How can I delete and reinstall iPhoto?

There is an issue with the new operating system and iPhoto when creating a book, how do I delete and reinstall iPhoto?

drag the iPhoto application to the trash and
reinstall from the original source
Could be
1 - the restore disks that came with the computer - if it came with CDs and you do not know where they are then contact Apple to see if they can be replaced
or
2 - the iLife DVD that you purchased
or
3 - the app store - log in under the Apple id used to purchase the software or to set up the computer - look under purchases - you might have to unhide or accept the Application first
However it would be a good idea to tell us what is going one - most likely you need to fix your library not reinstall the application - it is rare to need to reinstall the Application

One of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall, one of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall

One of my applications does not open. how can i delete and reinstall it?

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

If I delete and reinstall an app how do I get back my in app purchases

How do I get my in app purchases back after deleting and reinstalling an app. Specifically for the picture making app WOWFXHD ! I hade to delete the app because there was a glitch causing it to instantly close out while in the middle of working on a picture. All progress would be lost. I deleted the app thinking reinstalling it would fix the bug. It did not fix it at all. Still closing shut and losing all work done. I made quite a few in app purchases and now don't have them on the newly installed app. I downloaded it from the purchased tab in App Store by clicking the download arrow inside the cloud symbol like I read to do . What can I do now?

All of the apps with in app purchases that I have also have a method somewhere within the app to 'restore purchases'. I don't know about your specific app but you could look for such a method.

Podcasts for iOS no longer show number of episode not played on icon. Any clue how to fix? I have already tried to fix by restarting iPad, deleting and reinstalling App, etc.

My iPad stopped showing number of unplayed episode on icon for Podcasts program. I have tried to fix by deleting and reinstalling, restarting iPad, etc., but nothing has helped so far. It may or may not be related, but my iPad also no longer show a list of App that needs to be updated for App Store application. In this case, it shows number of available updates, but does not list them when I open. Then, the only way to find what App needs update, I need to go to "purchased" section, and individually look for updates.
This is basically opposite of what happend to Podcasts App, where it does not show unplayed episode on icon, but it does show unplayed episode once I open the application itself...
Any clue how to fix these problems???

Maybe you have content restricted for apps and that would prevent you from installing certain apps.
Settings> General> Restrictions> Allowed Content> Apps.

Built-in music app malfunction, how can I delete and reinstall?

The built-in music app on my iPad 2 is not working. When I get into it all I get is a black screen with the ability to play one song from one album. I get the albums, songs, artists, etc menu across the bottom of the screen, but nothing happens when I select these. Does anyone have any suggestions? do I need to delete and reinstall the app? If so, how can I do this, as I can't find the music app anywhere to download and reinstall ....

You can't delete and re-install it as it's one of the built-in apps. Have you tried closing the Music app completely and seeing if it works properly when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Music 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Music app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I have an iphone5 and no apps can access my camera roll. When i go to privacy settings there is no option to turn it on. How do I get these apps to access my camera roll? I have tried deleting and reinstalling the apps.

I have a new iPhone 5. I am trying to get apps like instagram, facebook etc to upload pictures from my camera roll. When i try to get a picture from the camera roll it instructs me to go to settings - privacy - photos and turn access on. When I do this, there is no option to turn it on. All i get is a screen saying "apps that have requested access to your photos will appear here". NO APPS APPEAR HERE. When I go to instagram I get the message "this app does not have access to your photos. You can enable access in Privacy Settings." I CAN'T enable it in Privacy Settings. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it and it didnt work. Please help! Much appreciated.

I'm also on iPhone 4, iOS 6, and have exactly the same problem. I've tried resetting privacy settings, turning restrictions on and off, deleting and reinstalling apps. Nothing seems to work. The lists of apps in privacy settings are all empty, except for location services. When using Tweetbot the app is regularly asking for permission to access my twitter account, but even when I allow that, the app doesn't show in privacy settings. When I try to go into the camera roll from the Facebook app, the app tells me I have to allow access to the camera roll from the privacy settings - which I can't do since the app is not listed there.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page). Here's a screenshot showing the particular links on the page that you should be clicking:
After clicking one of the circled links, you should be taken to another page, and after a few seconds you should see a download dialog appear for the msicuu2.exe file. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like for me in Firefox:
Choose to Save the file. If the dialog box does not appear for you, click the link on the page that says "CLICK HERE IF IT DOES NOT". Here's a screenshot of the page with the relevant link circled:
When the dialog appears, choose to save the file.
(2) Go to the Downloads area for your Web browser. Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Try this first - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
