HT1338 my mail is not on screen and cannot be force quit as well!! Help?

my mail is not on the screen  and cannot be forced quit as well - all the other applications seem to be working- cant turned computer off either!!

Try bringing up the Force Quit window from the Apple menu (or with Command-Option-Esc on the keyboard).  Is this where you tried to force quit Mail before?  If Mail is listed, select it and try a Force Quit.
If the Mac does not shut down because it is stalled during the log out process, press and hold down the Power Button to force a shutdown.  Then press and release to start up again.

  • Mail.app nonstop checks mailserver and loads CPU, force quit only.

    Hello
    My mail.app turned useless. It does not stop checking my exchange server for mails (little flower weel turns and turns), thereby it cranks up its cpu usage to 80%. I can then only quit mail by force quitting it. Everytime I start mail.app, the same thing happens. I can simply not use it anymore. I already deleted all mail accounts and manually deleted the Mail folder (~/Library/Mail/). As soon as I added the exchange mail account, the problem was back. At the same time that the mail.app started to cause that problem a process called AddressBookSourceSync regularly starts to heat up my cpu (80% and more) . On my iOS devices the exchange account works flawlessly. Does anybody have an idea what could cause this behavior? Thank you very much!
    Best regards,
    Silvan

    Going to use Postbox email client until this gets resolved. I saw a lot of possible solutions on google but none of them worked.
    I don't use mobile me
    I use gmail pop
    so this is just mail.app setup to use gmail's pop servers. i had about 20k email messages in deleted and sent folders that I deleted. just in case it was because I had a large number of emails.
    I tried resetting the sync history.
    **** this is ruining my perfect image I have of apple products.

  • My safari will not work.  And after I forced quit, there is nothing on the top left of my screen anymore.

    I actually cannot open any applications now. Does this computer need to be reset?

    Might need to restore OS X but we need to know which OS X is installed first.
    ***   When you post for help, please state which OS X is installed.
    If you aren't sure, click About this Mac from your Apple menu 
    Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information.

  • Firefox stalls when not in use and must be forced quit.

    The program works fine while I am actively using it. When it is in the background while using another application, or when I wake the computer from sleep and bring up Firefox, the program has stalled/become unresponsive. This phenomenon started approximately two weeks ago. I have turned all add-ons acquired the past six months in an attempt to eliminate conflicts, but the program still freezes when not active at least once a day.

    You can also consider to create a new profile to have a fresh start. That will also get rid of some weird pref values.
    See "Creating a profile":

    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    You can transfer some files from an existing profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

  • HT204053 When I initially try to sign in to iCloud, I get the "Account not verified" screen and I am told to check my email for instructions to verify.  No email is ever sent. My ID and password work on all other Apple app's.  Why not for iCloud?

    When I initially try to sign in to iCloud, I get the "Account not verified" screen and I am told to check my email for instructions to verify.  No email is ever sent. My ID and password work on all other Apple app's.  Why not for iCloud?

    I've tried both. First, I tried on my pc, where iTunes had installed iCloud when it last updated. I have iTunes installed on this computer (and on my iPad and iPhone), but that wasn't the issue.
    So I went online, thinking I needed a separate iCloud Apple ID, but it prompted me for my current Apple ID and gave me the message about my ID being "valid" but not an iCloud account," which, lol, was what it had asked me to do in order to create one. I checked, and at least one other user is having the same issue. I'll attempt to copy/paste the Support request url: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4430653?tstart=0
    Thank you for any help you can give.

  • I upgraded to ISO 7. Some of the apps are not w orking properly. Example: Text is to large and cannot fit the screen and cannot be reduced. Other apps  will no longer rotate. Need a fix.

    I upgraded my I pad to ISO 7. Some of the APPS are not working properly. Example: The text is to large for the screen and  cannot be adjusted. Other Apps will no longer rotate. Is there a fix?

    Have you updated your apps?
    I have found that the rotation from portrait to landscape is broken on some apps. That's not iOS 7's fault, it's the App designer. I have a fairly popular app that got updated the day before iOS 7 came out, presumably it was iOS 7 friendly. But no, it doesn't do landscape. Completely incompetent App designers to make that egregious of an error.
    You can contact the designer of each of your apps. It's not Apple's problem.

  • Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working

    Suddenly my Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working. I tried to save an email as I use to do but it is not completing the task. I should I do?
    Thanks for any help,
    Mario Lordeiro

    Mario,
    Was there also NO choice to View As Icon, in the contextual menu? If not, these items/images may be embedded in HTML, rather than true attachments. Other choices for normal attachments would include Open Attachment, Open With, Save to Downloads Folder -- are any of those present in the contextual menu?
    With such a message open, click on View in the menubar, place the cursor on Message in the pull-down menu, and choose Raw Source. Is there any HTML code present? Is there a header immediately before any code representing what you believe is an attached file?
    If need be, I can send you an email message with a known form of attachment.

  • Ip5s's why I do not live screen and camera are very weak faint? please check for me seri17m800xffgc

    ip5s's why I do not live screen and camera are very weak faint? please check for me seri17m800xffgc

    Sorry, not quite accepted, I see that I missed something out...
    This rapid flashing has only occured since I had BT Sport included in my package a few days back. Before then the light had been stable green with the occasional rapid flashing whilst I have been connected to the internet. That obviously does indicate data transfer.
    However, when I was not connected to the internet, the light glowed a stable green all the time. Now it flashes rapidly even when I'm not connected - I'll add there that my BT Vision box remains on all the time.
    Heat - The unit IS WARMER than it was - That may sound nit-picking but with my OCD's I "Touch-check" every item of electrical equipment every time I leave my house and, when I go to bed at night  so I am very well used to "How warm something should be" so that in my mind, I "Feel Safe". At this time I don't "Feel Safe" with the increased temperature so have to switch it off overnight, or when I leave my house.
    ** The unit may of course be warmer due to extra data-transfer but then, why do I suddenly have extra, and constant data transfer when my computers are switched off and I'm not using the internet?
    A thought about that I think could be that someone else is constantly accessing my connection though I've no idea how that could be so or if that ever could happen.

  • HT1338 i can not open safari and it says safari quit unexpectedly

    i can not open safari and it says safari quit unexpectedly

    Right or control click the Safari app in the Applications folder then click Get Info
    If you see version 5.1.6 or 5.1.7 in the Get Info panel, updating to Safari 6 may help.
    Apple has not posted a standalone Safari 6 installer, but there is a work around.
    Click here >  Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
    Then click the link posted by:  gregoryfromcork
    That will automatically download this file >  Safari6Lion.pkg.download
    Now quit Safari.
    Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
    Then restart your Mac, try Safari.

  • I have broken my screen and cannot access my iphone. I have an icloud account which I have used to back up my phone previously but nothing is showing on the website. How can I backup my data?

    I have broken my screen and cannot access my iphone. I have an icloud account which I have used to back up my phone previously but nothing is showing on the website in contacts etc. As I can enter my pin I cannot connect it to a laptop. Is there anyway of backinh up my data, pictures etc?

    No there isn't. If you check iCloud, you are not showing any backups at all? Did you have the phone set to sync contacts in iCloud, or were you just backing up to iCloud? If you were just backing up, then you should be able to access the backup, but if you were not syncing, then you probably cannot see the contacts in iCloud. You would have to wait until you restore from the backup to see them. You will probably have to go onto the iCloud website to erase and remove the device from Find My iPhone if you want to clear it off.

  • Frozon "Do not Disconnect" image and cannot restore

    My iPod is frozon on th "Do not Disconnet" image and mt ipod is corrupt so i need to restore it yet i can as it comes up with an error saying "There was a problem downloading the ipod software for the ipod "ipod". the requested resource was not found." any ideas i really need help cause i cant listen to any music on my ipod as it is frozon and cant restore
    Geo

    I held the "Menu" button along with the center button
    for about 6 seconds (as they state you should) and
    all of the sudden the screen finally broke from the
    "Do not disconnect" screen and began charging, now
    everything is working as it should.
    Oh my gosh, thanks so much, that did it! I, too, did not know that the "Select" button is the middle. And in fact, in all my prior repeated attempts to re-set my iPod, I had made a point of trying NOT to press the middle, but just the Menu button and the bottom button at the same time (since I thought that the bottom/play button must also be the select button). (Why did I think that? Answer -- because the 5R's instructions seemed, I mistakenly thought, to be saying to be careful not to touch the middle. I guess not. If anybody at Apple is reading this, please note that people like me can easily confused by unexplained verbiage like "Select button," apparently. Please consider tweaking the 5R's instructions to explain this to others.)
