I want to reinstall mail.app from the disk but the version is old on the disk, i'm using 10.6.8

Hi,
I deleted the mail.app in the bid to save space but i want to re-install. I have inserted the install disk and tried to do it that way but the version is too old.
in the box i was told to install the combo update which one do i install and will it work. Is there something else i can do

If you've already restored the older version of Mail, then run the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 update.
Note that the version of Mail you restored should be from a Snow Leopard Installer Disc.

Reinstalling Mail app on Leopard?

So like a dummy I uninstalled the Mail app from Leopard because I thought you had to have a .mac account to use it. After finding out that it can be used with hotmail I'd like to reinstall it which I'm guessing I can do from the install disc but I was wondering if anyone knew what the Mail app is listed as in the "optional" install list?
I see a bunch of "blah blah" pkg files but none that clearly say "hey this is the Mail app" file. I also didn't have an external hdd at the time so it's not on Time Machine. Any help would be appreciated.

Restoring Lost OS X Files
If you erase or otherwise "lose" an OS X system application or utility (such as Mail or Disk Utility, for example) you can restore them without having to reinstall OS X.
Download the shareware utility Pacifist. Read the documentation. Use Pacifist to extract a fresh copy of the missing application from the file archives on your OS X Installer disc. The file archives are usually found on the installer disc in the /System/Installations/ folder.
After restoring the application you need to reinstall the OS X Combo Updater for the version of OS X you currently have installed. This assures the new copy of the application is updated to the current version.
Lastly, it's a good idea to repair permissions.

I want to reinstall an app, but I don't want to load the app's data from iCloud. What do I do?

I want to reinstall an app [it's a game], but the thing is, I've already backed up the data in iCloud, so all it does is after reinstalling the app, it still has all the data I had when I backed it up in the cloud. But I don't want that data, I just want to reinstall the app like it is my first time installing the app. How do I do it?
-I'm using an iPad 2 and iOS 7

What app is it? Game Data is not stored in iCloud except when restoring from an iCloud backup entirely. If you keep getting you old game data, it's probably from game center. Try logging out of game center in Settings > GameCenter before reinstalling the game.

I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud. help?

Please assist

You don't really delete app that way, that way to stop backup for that app in icloud.
You need to delete it from your home screen and then while it still will look like download from icloud - app will start fresh.
However if app uses any account sign in the stuff that is attached to sign in will come back, so if you do not want to you need to use
fresh account as well.

My iTunes says I owe $5.25 for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for again but I want to get some apps from the store and now there's a hold on my account. Who do I talk to get the hold taken off

I explained it most in my question but I am getting charged double for songs that I have already paid for and am not going to pay for twice because that is messed up. But I want to get some apps from the store and it wont let me because of $5.25. Who can I talk to about resolving this issue?

You're right, it would have been covered under warranty. But because of the user damage, chances are there's a 200-something dollar fee . If you explain to them that it had a defect previously, they might replace it for you at no charge. **MIGHT**. But they would have to believe that it had a defect previously.

So a long time ago I accidentally deleted the mail app from my computer. How do I get it back? My computer is an old MacBook running on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

When I try to sync photos, I followed all the steps, picked one folder. When I hit "apply" I get this error message: Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad. This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad. What have I done wrong

When I try to sync photos or music, I followed all the steps, picked onle folder, not the whole library. When I hit "apply" I got this message:
Are you sure you want to remove 30 apps from iPad. This will delete these apps and their data from the iPad" What can I change to just download the photos and not interfere with the apps?
(By the way, the memory is not even one quarter full)
Thanks for your help - Pat

I have the same problem. I updated my mac to 10.5, which then had me update apps like itunes, etc. then it wanted me to sync my purchased music to my ipad before i updated the ipad...which worked ok. then when i was syncing the photos i got the same message when i hit "apply" asking are you sure you want to delete the 12 apps from the ipad - clicked "no" and brought me back to the original screen. Got the same message when trying to move them from the hard drive to the ipad. WHat is going on and how do I correct this? Thanks

Reinstall an app from the app store...

Any ideas on how to reinstall an app from the app store. Tried the listed hold option, etc to avail...

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
To reinstall an app, first you need to delete the applications from your Mac, so open a Finder window, choose Applications in the sidebar and delete the app. If you have got OS X Lion or newer, you can use Launchpad to delete the app by holding down the Option (Alt) key.
After removing the app, open the Mac App Store, go to Purchases and redownload the application.

HT1766 We have 2 iPads. I want to copy purchased apps from one to the other. Proper? How?

I want to copy purchase apps from one iPad to another. Possible?

No sweat. Sync both to the same computer's iTunes. You'll have to configure the sync characteristics separately. The iTunes keeps track of which is which by S/N. You might wish to rename one or both so that you can keep track.

I wanted to get this app from the app store but it wouldn't load the app after typing it in the search box

Hey apple or who ever is going to answer the question I'm about to give,
Anyway, my question Why isn't my app store working? Is there a glitch in the IOS 7 or something. But let me get into further detail about my situation. I wanted to get this app from the app store. When I click on the app everything is fine at first, but then i click on the "search button" and I type out the name of the app.And usually the name of the app would pop up to what it appears be a list of the names of each app, but that never happened. Then, I clicked "enter" or "search" and it wouldn't load after hours and hours. And then I decided to go to the settings and see whats up with the app. I scoll down and click on the "ITunes & App Store" with an arrow pointing right. Once I clicked it, it freezes. But I haven't updated my phone (its IOS 7 but theres an update for IOS 7.1 or something like that)
Regards,
Veronica M.

Reset the device then try the App Store.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
No data is lost due to a reset.
When you can, yes, there's an update available.
Tap Settings > General > Software Update

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

TS3579 How do I reinstall mail app on Snow Leopard 10.6.8

Is there an update file that I can pull a recent version of the Mac Mail app from onto my machine?
I am on Mac OSX 10.6.8
Situation:
I never use Mac Mail, but a recent client of mine was trying to configure it and so I thought I'd pull it up and help them setup an account on the phone.
The problem is,Mac Mail doesn't come up at all. I rarely use email right on my machine, what with Gmail and Thunderbird as my usual modalities with email. The thought of littering my machine with actual email files seems archaic.
So I deleted Mail app.
I then ran Software Update to see if it would notice the app as missing and attempt to reinstall but that was just wishful thinking. App store doesn't seem to care about existing packages on the machine beyond whatever is purchased in App store so that was a waste of time also.
I don't want to have to go through a lot of shenanigans with update programs and DVDs ...
I remember seeing somewhere how someone simply pulled the app out a recent update and just dragged it onto their machine - if anyone knows which update for 10.6.x Snow Leopard would have this app in it thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance

FIXED - THE SOLUTION
1. Locate your Apple Install DVD #1 - "Mac OSX Install DVD"
2. Download & install Pacifist See http://www.charlessoft.com/
3. Download the "Security Update 2012-004" file from here:http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1586
4. Delete all existing versions of Mail.app on system (See also https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4419244?start=0&tstart=0)
5. Open Pacifist and choose Open Package
Browse to the Optional Installs folder on the DVD, and open Optional Installs package (mpkg)
Pacifist will take a few minutes to open the package and display its contents.
"Now would be a great time to fill out your registration card" or go get a cup of coffee or cocktail, yes you have time.
Once the package contents have been revealed, locate the Mail.app and attempt to drag it to your Applications folder.
When you do this, Pacifist will prompt you for permission to extract it to where you dragged it to.
Click Extract
Then enter your password:
And Pacifist will extract the Mail.app to your Applications folder:
Yes, my apps are all nicely organized - it is legal to organize and declutter the disorganized mess that is your Applications folder, which is how Apple installs it. The only problem is that because Apple thinks a disorganized mess of an Applications folder is just fine, their people don't take into account actually locating the Mail.app when they do the security update, and just assume you'll have it in the sheeple location of "Applications". That's what caused this problem to begin with.
Now, if you try to run this version of the app, on a system previously updated to 10.6.8, you will get an error:
6. Right, so now you run the SecUpd2012 004, and reboot.
As a side note, Security Update 2012-004 will s h i t an unusable version of the Quicktime player into your Applications folder also.
See it there without the proper icon.
Since I had accidently deleted Quicktime 7 from my machine, not really missing it, but I was wondering what happened to it ... so using Pacifist I was also able to get a working version back onto my system the same way as Mail. So while Security Update 2012-004 s h i t s this unusable version into the Applications folder, it does nothing to update the Quicktime 7 app. Perhaps someone else can explain that. So I just deleted the unusable Quicktime Player app.
Now, Mail.app works fine even before reboot, as does Quicktime as is from the Optional Installs mpkg but you gotta reboot after the update but it should work already.

Mail.app From and Subject are blank in list

From time to time I get an email and once it is deleted, the "From" and "Subject" do not display in the list of emails. Its just blank. The "Date Received" shows up as well as if there were any attachments I get the paperclip icon, but no "From" or "Subject". If I open the email I can see the "From" and "Subject" in the email header just fine so I know the data is there, just doesnt show up in the list of emails. If I move the email back to my inbox and the delete it again it usually fixes the problem. Not a big deal but wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue and has a fix.
I am running Mail.app 3.2, and my emailemail is being routed through google apps setup as imap account.
This also happens on my wife's computer, who has an identical email setup as mine, just a different account, which leads me to believe its a mail.app ->imap ->gmail issue.
Dont get me started on the dreaded "All Mail" folder.

I have tried suffering through changing the message encoding back and forth to get messages to appear, but it has reached a level of absurdity that I just can stand anymore.
I view my mail with IMAP from three places; Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, and iPhone. If I read a message on any one of the platforms, the remaining Mac (not iPhone) do not display the header information in the message list pane. The iPhone always shows everything fine. And if I download the message first on one of the Macs, it looks fine there, but when that message is downloaded on the other Mac (doesn't matter which was first or second, the pro or macbook pro) the from, to, sent, subject are all invisible on the second machine.
I wrote an automator "watch me" recording to toggle message encoding, but with over 2000 affected email messages, it was taking hours to run, and makes that Mac useless until it is done.
I am less than happy with this situation. Why no bulk message encoding change capability? If you select more than one message the encoding options grey-out.
I've tried rebuilding mailboxes. Using the "defaults write ..." on both Macs. Nothing is working.
Surely someone else is seeing this too?

How do I delete an app from my phone but not the computer? Is there a way to deactivate it so it doesn't add it back when it syncs?

How do I delete and app from my phone but not from the computer? Is there a way to do this so it doesn't add it back in when it syncs?

In iTunes under the Apps tab for the iPhone device just uncheck any app you don't want synced to the phone. When you next sync the app will be removed from the phone but remain in the iTunes library.
