HT1430 Unable to operate the mail app. It has frozen.

All my apps are working ok but the 'mail' app that comes with the iPad is inert and will not work. How do I fix it.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to settings>Mial and turn the mail accounts of and then turn them back on.
- Restore from backup. See:                                 
iOS: How to back up           
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

    I am unable to start or select the MAIL app. No incoming mail and no outgoing mail. I do not even know how to get an answer without email. Can you help?

    Thank you Carolyn, How helpless you can feel without this App!
    Going into the App Store as you suggest, I see 'thee updates available", the first says, 'X RESTART', the second says, 'Garage Band, an error has occurred" (in red), and the third 'Memory Clean, UPDATE'.
    Am I correct in thinking that OSX is the problem, because it is waiting for a restart?
    Kind regards,

  • I am unable to open scanned documents (with .jpg file extension) in my e-mail inbox, on the Mail app on my iPad. Please provide a clear answer. Thanks a lot.

    Can you actually see that the attachment has a .jpg extension?  Some mail systems strip it off (I've seen AOL do that) which makes the attachment difficult to open.

  • Unable to open RSS Feeds in Safari, I am forced to use the Mail app.

    Unable to open RSS Feeds in Safari, I am forced to use the Mail app.
    Since I have Safari 6.0 (OS X Lion 10.7.4 on MacBook Pro bought this year)  I am being forced to use the Mail app in order to open RSS Feeds, but I do not want to use the Mail app.
    Does someone please has a solution for me? People form Apple, are you reading this? It is annoying me.

    Firefox doesn't show how many unread items there are in a feed, but Safari 5.x did.  I guess I have no reason to use Safari anymore.

  • Since installing the latest software update I have been unable to access my mail app.the screen appears blank?

    Since installing the latest software update I have been unable to access my mail app.the screen appears blank?

    Force close the mail app and reset your iPad. See if that fixes it.
    In order to close the mail app, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the mail app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • I'm unable to get the mail web app to display less than 6 unread emails on the badge and yet I have no unread emails. Please advise.

    Help!

    Try going to icloud.com from your computer, opening Mail and ensuring that you don't have any unread emails in your inbox or in any of your folders.  If not, try going to Settings>Notifications>Mail and turn Badge App Icon to Off. (If you have multiple email accounts, tap each account separately then turn Badge App Icon to Off.)  Then force-close the Mail app: from the home screen, double-tap the home button, locate Mail in the list at the bottom, tap and hold it until it wiggles, tap to close it, then tap the home button again.  Next, go back to Settings>Notifications>Mail and turn Badge App Icon back to On.  The reopen Mail and see if it's cleared now.

    The iPad's Mail app has no provisions for creating groups. However, you can use a third party app that many users recommend.

    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.

  • I deleted my old Email account because I wanted to create a new one, and I did. However, when ever I send an Email from the Mail app on my laptop it says the Email was sent from my old Email and I just can not get rid of it.

    I deleted my old Email and only used my new Email to set up the Mail app on my laptop. And the old Email is completely dead, hotmail.com says the Email no longer excists when I try to sign back in to it however my Emails remain saying 'Sent from Jordan [*old Email*].
    I can't find a solution!!

    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • HT5361 I am having trouble with closing the mail app so that I can shut off my laptop. the menu bar under file doesn't give me the option to quit.  that option is lister, but it is faded.  command Q will not close mail either.

    I am unable to shut off my laptop because I can not close the mail app.  Command Q doesn't work. While "quit mail" shows up under FILE on the menu bar, it is faded and not a working option.  Mail appears to be frozen.  I also can not pull up the mail page despite the app being open. Clicking on the mail icon does nothing and there are no available options under the menu bar.  Help, please!  Thanks!

    Try force-quitting (command-option-esc).

  • The mail app on my macbook pro is preventing me from shutting down, how do I fix this?

    The mail app on my computer is open but nothing is displayed on the screen. When I go to shut down a small message appears saying "unable to shut down as mail is still open". However, when I try to close the mail app it won't let me. What do I do?
    Thanks

    pennbank is correct that holding the power button will stop the computer.  But it stops *all* processes mid-step, which can leave some of OSX in an incorrect state because of pending internal file updates that were killed.  I do not like to use that method if anything else will make it respond.  For example, once the computer was not responding when I was using a BT trackpad.  I eventually removed the batteries from the trackpad to force it dead, and the release of the BT channel freed the MBP.

  • Why is the mail-app using so much space?

    My iPhone is desperately needing some RAM-space to operate, space that is currently in use by the Mail-app. After I have deleted all messages (inbox, sent and trash) the mail-app still takes up for 7,0 GB of space. Somehow it seems not to delete messages (and or attachments) that should have been deleted from the device, or it there something else wrong? Can anyone help me to get rid of the junk in the Mail-App?

    Thanks for the suggestion. In that case I would like to know how to delete seperately stored attachments on my iPhone, since I already deleted each and every one of my e-mails. (cleared all inboxes, sent boxes, trash.... all of them). And even after deleting all e-mails it still takes up 7 GB.

  • Where is the mail app log?

    I am getting a message that a message is unable to be sent.
    Port is correct.
    Auth is none.
    I'd like to see what response is being given by the SMP server, but running up console, I can't seem to find where the mail app is logging the problem it is having.

    As far as I know mail doesn't log those. It is generally a matter of either connectivity (eg I get it when trying to send a message via a server, but the part of the LAN I am currently using is blocked from accessing that server) or of a valid email address, where the server is able to verify the address because it is local to the server. It may also occur where the both the sender and recipient are outside the domain of the server, but that doesn't sound like your problem.
    If you really want to see what is happening, you will need to run a network sniffer (eg ethereal or MacSniffer).
