I can't open or close my mail

Everytime I hit the mail icon to open it nothing happens. If I try to "quit" it nothing happens. I can't restart the computer because it says I have to quit the mail program but it won't let me. I delted my gmail account cause I thought if I deleted all the accounts it would work....couldn't delete my icloud account...please help me.

Hi haleyhck,
If you are unable to close the Mail program by using the normal "Quit" command, you may need to Force Quit it. There are several methods to do this; you may find the following article helpful:

    If you cannot get mail to quit/force quit, you can always remove power from your Mac.
    NOTE: removing power is a bad idea, and can result in data loss, but sometimes it is the only thing left to do.
    Press and hold the power button for 5 to 10 seconds, and the Mac will power off.
    When you power back on, the Mac should reboot.

  • HT1529 how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

    how can I open the outbox for mail? That is, mail that i have finished and pressed 'send' but has not appeared in the 'sent' folder

    The reason it will not be in the sent folder is, it failed to send.
    If it failed to send, then you will see the Outbox icon. 'Pending' would be a more descriptive name.
    When it eventually sends, the Outbox will not show in the Mail app interface.
    Until it is sent it will stay stuck in the Outbox.
    If it refuses to send, you can manually delete it in Finder, at the location ~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/Outbox.mbox
    Close Mail first, before you search for that email using the Finder.

    Try a reset hold home/sleep buttons until Apple logo appears
    If that does not improve try a restore

  • I am connected to wifi, but can't open webpages or collect mail

    I am connected to wifi, but can't open webpages or collect mail. I have tried to reconnect; to forget the network, all those things that should hepl. My phone and my computer recognize the network, the ipad doesn't.  I mean I am connected  and have a full scala of connection bows, but nothing happens.

    You iPad recognizes the wifi signal, but is not connected.
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • Locked up in Dashboard, and can't open or close anything.

    MMy Mac book is locked in dashboard and I can't open or close anything. I'm not sure how to force my Mac to shut down. HELP.

    Hi jessig13,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you’re in a bit of a frustrating situation there because you have a MacBook that isn’t responding and only shows the Dashboard, you want to know how to force it to shut down.
    If you haven’t already, try using one of the options below to exit Dashboard normally.
    Mac Basics: Dashboard gives you quick access to frequently used info - Apple Support
    Leaving Dashboard
    When you're ready to exit dashboard, do any of the following:
    Press the escape (Esc) key.
    Use Mission Control or Application Switcher to switch to another application.
    Swipe from right to left using two fingers on your trackpad.
    If that doesn’t do it, this article provides details about forcing your Mac to restart or shut down.
    OS X Yosemite: Log out, sleep, restart, and shut down
    If the pointer freezes on the screen or your Mac becomes unresponsive, press Control-Command (⌘)-Power button to force a restart.
    Important:   If you force a restart, you may lose unsaved changes in open documents.
    If you don’t want the app windows you currently have open to reopen when you restart your Mac and sign in, deselect “Reopen windows when logging back in.”
    If your Mac won’t shut down, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds to force a shutdown.
    Important:   If you force a shutdown, you may lose unsaved changes in open documents.
    The Mac is completely shut down when there is a black screen, no active power light, and no fan or drive noise.
    Take care,
    -Jason

    any help??

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    The title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
              SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try to launch one of the problem apps. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.

  • I can't open internet base lotus mail after updated to Firefox 7.0.1...help please. thank you

    I use internet base lotus email to send and receive email. it work perfect with Firefox previous version. the problems start after I updated to Firefox 7.

    SOLVED: Here's the solution to "I can't open images in Yahoo mail with Firefox 7, but IE works." Just before I log on to my Yahoo e-mail site I enable cookies, but I never enable third-party cookies. That has always worked fine until October 2011. Just after I installed the new Firefox 7 this problem began. Now I have just discovered that if I enable third-party cookies the problem is solved. Users should not have to enable third-party cookies to read Yahoo e-mail via Firefox!!!
