HT1277 my email displays but will not open, just the spinning icon

My email displays but will not open in my laptop or ipad. I just keep getting the spinning icon. I can recieve emails on my iphone. Any suggestions?

If Mail.app will launch on OS X and you can get to the Preferences settings and related, see the Apple Mail.app troubleshooting article for some suggestions. From there, get that working, then compare the differences between what's working and connecting, and what's not — the Connection Doctor and the Activity window should give you a pretty good idea of where things are hanging up — if not directly what's wrong — when troubleshooting the OS X Mail.app connection.

When I try to open Firefox, it says it is running in the Task manager, but will not open until the memory has reached about 100,000k. Also, it keeps NOT responding all the time, and freezes up.

I have done everything on the support page. I am running Windows Vista, and I am running Firefox 4.01. I have even tried running in safe mode. I have updated my plugins, and then disabled plugins and extensions.

Hello Pohaku66, any luck if you [https://support.mozilla.org/kb/firefox-already-running-not-responding#w_remove-the-profile-lock-file remove the profile lock file] ?

Cannot use Live email in Firefox; will not send and the Attachment icon dissapears

When I open Live Sign In in Firefox on this computer, it will not let me send email and the Attachment, Photo, etc icons disappear. You cannot attach anything or send email. The Live email works fine in Chrome on this computer. Any suggestions?

This issue can be caused by malware.

Yosemite 10.10 - Dreamweaver CC 2014 will not open, get the bouncing icon, but fails to start. Illustrator

Hi Not sure if there is a workaround - really need to get DW up and running

Yosemite 10.10 is a beta release. Why on Earth are you using a beta OS on your work box?
Try installing on a stable operating system for which CC was built.
EDIT: See the technical specs required to run DW CC

ITunes installs properly, but will not open

I have just upgraded from iTunes 6.0.1 to 6.0.2
Everything installed correctly, and I am receiving no error messages; the program simply will not open. I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times, and I have exactly the same problem each time.
My music files (including ones that I purchased from Apple's music store) will open with other players, but will not open with the newly installed v6.0.2
I am running Norton Internet security, but the problem still occurs after I disable the program.
Any assistance is appreciated.

Well, that annoying. So, I am a bit confused here. Does iTunes launch at all or sometimes? BTW, You need to Configure Norton to allow iTunes to open. Otherwise, it will continue to block it silently.
Do you see, under your Processes tab in your Windows Task Manager, both Quicktime and iTunes?

My outlook will not open yet all other microsoft packages will. When I click on the icon, the 'o' logo will come up for a split second but will not open the package - need to receive emails asap!

You're very welcome!
I meant holding the "option" (or "alt") key on your keyboard as you click the Outlook icon on the Dock, and continuing to hold it until you see the Microsoft Database Utility come up. Alternatively, you can open the utility by navigating to Applications/Microsoft Office 2011/Office and then double-clicking the Microsoft Database Utility app.
When you rebuild your database using that program, a backup copy of your original database (containing your account info, contacts, mail, calendars, etc) will be created. As a security precaution, you should also ensure you have a backup of your database (which you can find by going to Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2011 Identities/ and copying the contents of that folder onto an external drive).

I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

I guess you mean one of the resume templates.
What "format" have you saved your finished resume in?
The only formats a Windows user will be able to open are .doc (Word), .pdf and rtf. The 1st 2 are usually the best.
There is no Windows version of Pages.

TS1506 I have a problem opening some email attachments. They will not open in the mail application on an IPad Air

I recently upgraded from an iPad 1 to an Air. One of its main uses is to avoid printing volumes of papers for meetings, so the abilty to open attachments with mail is pretty important.
There are some attachments that will not open in the mail application on an iPad Air. Some in the same format do (docx). They do open in Mail on my MacBook, and iPad1, or if I go to webmail on any device including a Blackberry, so it is not a file corruption problem. The problem persists on different networks. Other emails from the same sender do work. It seems to be specifically related to IOS 7 or the Mail app. Quickview won't work, nor will opening with a range of Apps which report a file error.
There was an historical problem with Apple garbling pdf files, but this is a new one on me.
All this is a shame because it is opening emails in attachments that was one of my main reasons for buying an Air.
Does anyone know of the cause? A solution?

What about a work-around?
Ios 7.1 etc. has a problem with communicating with exchange. There are lots of reports of problems with pdf files.
The work-arounds mentioned here may be of assistnace.

My ipad receives email with the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message is "user name or password for ........is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad didnt help.

My iPad receives email on the hotel wifi but will not send. The error message reads "user name or password for smpt......is incorrect" but both are correct and unchanged. Restarting iPad did not help.

I did try this too, but when I access my webmail on the iPad, the iPad doesn't allow me to type my message. I am able to enter in the "to" address and the "subject" line, but then the keyboard will not come up for me to type my message. Is there some trick to this? Very frustrating!

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. Any help?

Pages app unexpectedly quit whilst I was in the middle of a document. I can now not open it AT ALL. I find it's not just that particular document that won't open, but any of my Pages docs will not open using the current version of Pages. The reports of the app unexpectedly closing each time, automatically went to Apple, but I am not sure what happens with them then. Does anyone know how to help me with this? We live in a very isolated region so rely on internet help. Thanks

I also managed to read a few other discussions about Pages and files not being able to open. I actually went to the last back-up and restored the computer from that and everything seemed to work ok again, which is great!...advice from another discussion I think you may have been involved in PeterB. Thanks for the advice...also this advice, as I will make a note of trying to open using the Shift key if it happens again and see what happens...might be an easier first option than restoring from a back-up. Thans heaps for the help!
I was interested to read some of the other discussions where it was stated that Pages '09 seems to be a better option to use. I have both installed, so I will lkeep this in mind. Thanks heaps!

Thanks.

I stumbled upon the solution. In addition to downloading Creative Cloud, I needed to go back to the website and download trials for the programs I want to use--Photoshop and Lightroom. Once I did that, I was in business. Would save trouble if that was made clear on the download site.
Thanks

Some applications are not opening, including mail and Word. Clicking on the icon stirs it on the dock, but will not open it.

Ok, that's plenty of space.
Check the S.M.A.R.T. status on your HD: Boot from install disc (insert disc > restart > immediately hold down the c key and keep holding it until you see “Preparing Installation”) > at first screen select the language and click Continue > click on the Utilities Menu in the menu bar > select Disk Utility > select your HD in the panel on the left side (the name of the HD’s manufacturer and the model number, usually the top item in the list) > look at the bottom of the main window next to S.M.A.R.T. status and see if it says “Verified” (good) or something more ominous like “Failing.”
If S.M.A.R.T. status is "Verified," run Repair Disk > click Repair Disk at bottom of main window. Run this at least twice, and keep running it until it says “appears ok” twice in a row. If that doesn’t happen, you may need a stronger utility (such as DriveGenius, TechToolPro, DiskWarrior) or if the directory is damaged beyond repair, you may need to reinstall the OS, or you may have a damaged HD which will need to be replaced (repair utilities can only repair the directory structure, not the HD itself). When this is finished, quit Disk Utility, quit the installer, and restart. Once booted normally, go to Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions.

U/tube videos open when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox.

u/tube videos open fine when using Safari but will not open when using Firefox. With Firefox I get the unhighlighted Quicktime symbol with a question mark in the center. WHY?? Any help appreciated --- Toroya

Hmmmm, strange you view YouTube in Safari & not FF. Which version of FF are you using?
Try the following:
Repair permissions & restart.
Make sure you have the latest versions of Adobe Flash Player Software
QuickTime Preferences > Advanced > MIME Stettings > Miscellaneous.
Deactivate the "Flash Media" option.
