HT5361 mail will not shut down

I cannot shut down my mail application unless I force shutdown.

I am having the same problem.  I vacuum the mail index daily but there is no change in behavior.

  • HT5362 Mail will not shut down or open

    My mail is not responding since upgrading to os x.  Will not shut down or open and cannot shut down.

    Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.
    Wait.
    When Force Quit window appears, select the application if not already.
    Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.
    Wait.
    Application will quit.
    If this does not help, press the power button for 7 or more seconds.
    Computer will shut down.
    Restart.

  • Mail will not shut down so mac stays on

    Mail stops mac shutting down.

    Hey richardfromloveland,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the Mail application on your MacBook. If you are unable to quit the application, you may need to force quit it:
    OS X Mavericks: If an app freezes or quits unexpectedly
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13975
    If the app is frozen, force quit the app. Press Option-Command (⌘)-Esc, select the app, then click Force Quit.
    When you force an app to quit, you may lose unsaved changes.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • HT1277 I can't do an update because MAIL will not shut down!!!! The Quit Mail choice in the drop down menu is gray and does not repond!

  • Mail will not quit  System will not shut down

    My computer is locked because mail will not quit and the system will not shut down or restart because mail is still running. Whatever I click on in the mail window I get the thunk sound. I cannot send or receive mail, access the individual mail boxes. I think I might have accidently deleted my mailbox, but it shows in the source list so I am not sure what happened? Anyone have a clue on how to get mail functioning again????

    Choose Force Quit from the Apple menu, find the Mail application in the list, and quit it. If it won't quit after this has been done, save all open documents in other applications and use the Activity Monitor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder to force quit the loginwindow process; you will then be logged back in or returned to the login screen depending on whether automatic login is enabled.

  • My mail is stuck, and the computer will not shut down. What should i do?

    My mail is stuck, and the computer will not shut down and the Mail is not responding. What should i do?

    Hi Clinton,
    This happens to all the time and this is what I normally do. (Press and hold the pwer button until the computer shuts down) but, this doesn't seem to answer the real issue. Its just like you cut of the power to shut it down.
    Kind Regards

  • Mac Will Not Shut Down

    I ran Singular past my OS 9.2 drive and it disposed of items that were not duplicates. I rebuilt my system folder from a flash drive. Hard Drive will not shut down. I normally cycle between a drive with OS 10x and my OS 9x in the Startup Disk. Now when I tell it to restart on my OS 10 it will not shut down. I get a Software Update Engine error message with no error code.
    I even reinstalled OS 9.2.2 and it still does it. Even after Norton Utilities.
    To get past it, I option/command/esc to get it to shut off and restart on the other disk.
    Has this happened to any of you?

    Thanks for the input. Yes the OS's are on different drives. With all my modeling and animation programs... it would cost me a small fortune to upgrade them, hence OS 9.2.2.
    This all started after telling Singular to dispose of certain duplicated file. It apparently dragged some others out with it. I have a flash drive with the good system 9 that I used to go file by file in the extensions and control panels and made the wiped disk look like the flash drive backup. Corrected a lot except for this not shutting down without using escape. Reinstallation did not stop it.
    The norton is only for 9xx indeed... I am not having trouble with OSX drive at all. When I want to restart to 9xx it does it's restart and into 9xx land. Norton always finds a wall of screwed up blocks and trees... never seemed to be an issue. It raked up the files and fixed what ever these invisible files do. Still same same. We bought the first mac in Jax fl... we have been around this platform ever since. When macs were a bit simpler.. there were only so many things something like this could be. This is the only time I have seen this behavior in a mac.
    I just got in from 500 mile drive.. will go though these responses after a nap.
    Thanks before and after.

  • HP Pavilion P7-1141 will not shut down... Any thoughts?

    Brand new HP Pavilion P7-1141 desktop (AMD A8-3800 quad-core CPU, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD, Radeon HD 6550D, Windows 7 64-bit) will not shut down properly regardless of what I do - I can press on/off button on the desktop, or choose "shut down" from Windows 7 menu, each time the following happens: Windows shows it's usual "shutting down" screen, then screen goes blank and monitor goes to sleep, but the desktop itself still seems to be working in some unusual mode: fans are rotating - I hear the usual quiet noise from them, the lights on the desktop are on, however, no hard drive activity at all. In this mode, the desktop can't be turned on anymore - I need to press on/off button for a few seconds to turn it off completely or unplug the power cable and plug it back and only after that it can be turned on. Windows will not show any error messages during startup, HP diagnosticks program does not find any issues, no error messages of any kind. I checked power settings in Windows, played with power settings in BIOS without any success. Am I missing something? Any ideas?
    UPDATE: Sleep mode doesn't work as well. When I choose "sleep" from Windows 7 menu, exactly the same thing happens (monitor goes to sleep, fans are rotating, the lights on the desktop are on, no hard drive activity, etc). At least when I choose "restart" it restarts without any problems.

    Hi:
    See if  (re) installing the chipset driver helps.

  • MacBook Pro will not shut down

    A principal at my district has a MacBook Pro 15-inch Early 2008 (2.4/2X1GB/200-5400/256VRAM/AG) running OS 10.5.8 that will not shut down. When shut down is chosen, the computer restarts instead of shutting down. It does not matter how shut down is chosen, whether it is from pull down menu, keyboard command, click on shutdown in the login menu, etc. I have tried resetting PRAM, SMC, starting up from a known good system, and run diagnostics applications (which turn up no problems). The only way to get the machine to tunr off is hold the power button down until it shuts off.
    The user complains it also gets very hot when he leaves it sitting open in sleep mode. I have not observed that particular symptom. It also tend to run down the battery faster than it should (battery check shows it to have 80+% of it's original capacity.) But Activity Monitor does not show any unusual activity.
    Any suggestions what I can try next to figure this thing out?
    Thanks.

    On occassion (like tonight) my MacBook Pro will not
    shut down - even when I attempt to force quit. Any
    suggestions?
    Happens here too, but very rarely. In my case it mostly happens late at night when OS X is supposed to run some internal maintenance jobs, maybe some of them do not allow a shutdown?
    Does holding the power button down for approx. 10 seconds work? If yes, then I would not worry about it. If no, there is something seriously odd and I would report it to AppleCare.
    Cheers,
    Uwe

  • Mac Book Pro (OS 10.4.11) WILL NOT SHUT DOWN UNLESS FORCED! STILL PERSISTS!

    My Mac Book Pro 15", 2.33 GHz, 3 GB memory - runninfg Mac OS X 10.4.11 WILL NOT SHUT DOWN UNLESS FORCED! HELP!!!
    When I use the SHUT DOWN command in the Apple Menu - programs close, the screen goes to a blue screen with a revolving time indicator and then remains that way until I FORCE SHUT DOWN by pressing the power button - then after a it makes the sound the screen goes black.
    I searched the forums and tried the suggested fixes: trashing these 2 .plist preferences and reboot.
    Reset your Energy Saver preferences.
    HD > Library > Preferences > SystemConfiguration > com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
    User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.systemuiserver.plist
    this worked for a couple of cycles then the problem retuned/
    Hey, Mac geniuses and wizards - what is going wrong with my macboo

    Have you ever waited and let it do it's thing? I was ready to force mine to quit the other day after waiting 2-3 minutes, and all of sudden, it shut down. I restarted it and then shut it down again. This time it was normal.
    Try this yet before doing an Archive and Install.
    1. Boot from your system CD, run Disk First Aid from your Disk Utility and repair your permissions.
    2. Use a utility like Onyx to clean your system cache out, including your kernel cache. The computer will restart slow right after that, but I keep rebooting the computer about 3 times in a row, and I'm back up to speed.

  • Safari will not shut down

    My safari will not shut down. I tried to restart my computer, but since safari will not shut down, neither can the computer. I was using a web-based IEP (teacher program) software that required opening a PDF in Safari when it stopped working. Any help would be great. I also cannot use Safari. It will minimize.
    Thanks!

    Force quit Safari.
    Command + Option + Esc
    Or click Force Quit from your Apple  drop down menu.
    Or, you can force quit apps using the Activity Monitor located in HD > Applications > Utilities

  • Final cut will not shut down stays in the dock and I have to reboot

    Final Cut will not shut down ..... stays in the dock and I have to physically reboot

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you mean by stuck in Dock.
    You reboot your Mac. Is FCP trying to open automatically (the icon bouncing)? Or is it just visible in the Dock?

  • Ipad2 will not shut down

    Went to reboot my IPAD 2 and will not shut down, the ICON ( wheel) just keeps spinning. What's up with this?

    I don't fully understand what the System Reset does but I've found that it cures many ills.  It's easy, quick and harmless:
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
    A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
    Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide.  Pay special attention to page 162.  Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
    Finally,  the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less   comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.
