IMail problem after latest OS Yosemite Recovery update (@09.04.2015), OS X update, itunes update

Hi,
I have a problem. After the latest update of OS X Yosemite, Yosemite Recovery update and iTunes I have a big problem. I mail is not lunching, it says that it is identifying message conversations and it will take few minutes... But it has been all day. The situation does not change even after restarting the system. Forcing to quit and reopening the iMail does not help also.
What is the solution?
Have anyone had something similar?
Any ideas?!
Thank you in advance, looking forward for some advice.

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • External hard drive problems after latest updates

    I just did some updates (listed below) and now my external drive is having a few problems.
    Updates installed:
    - Security update 2015 002
    - Remote Desktop Client Update 3.8.2 ver 1.1
    - iTunes 12.1
    - Canon Inkjet Printer Software 3.2
    Problems:
    - Double clicking on any file type leads to a 'can't find application' error, rather than it opening in the default program (i have tried it with several different file types)
    - Can no long click option + drag to copy. I get error code -8058
    Any idea which update might be causing this? I'm thinking security or remove desktop client? If so, is there any way to remove the update? I've searched and can't find how.

  • MacBook Pro 2009 problems after latest update. Anyone else got the same issues?

    Hey community:)
    A couple of nights ago I decided to update my MacBook Pro to the latest version/update. It all went fine, I installed them, rebooted it and logged into my account as usual.
    Then it all started, my finder/spotlight slowed down by atleast 50%, my videofiles both .mkv and .avi started acting funny on searching and playing generally.
    I then decided to go surf some on the web(safari), it went fine for the first minute. After that it didn't work at all, pages wouldn't start loading at all, and I had to quit the Safari.app and reboot it to even get the thing to work.
    Is there anything I can do about this, or to rephrase: is there anyone else with the same issues?

    Let's see, starting at the first reply
    @sig
    "I updated it to the latest update" as in taking the updates that was given. I'll "explain" some more: The macbook in question didn't have any new updates in atleast the last 1,5 months, as I've been working 14h++ a day with the same things and didn't really have the time to update before the 22.March. Sorry for not stating the obvious before now, but got kinda frustrated and didn't really think thorough the question, but I'm going to try give the most information I can possibly find!
    I installed these updates 22. march:
    iTunes(10.2.1)
    Mac OS X Update Combined(10.6.7)
    iWeb Update(3.0.3)
    AirPort Utility(5.5.2)
    After that update my video playback started getting harder and harder, I could watch .mkv files but I'd get more and more errors or even playback stops. The macbooks performance in finder did also start slowing down.
    The following updates was installed 2 June:
    Safari(5.0.5)
    iTunes(10.2.2)
    Snow Leopard Font Update(1.0)
    Security Update 2011-002(1.0)
    Java for Mac Os X 10.6 Update 4(1.0)
    iDVD 7.1.1 Update(7.1.1)
    ProKit Update(7.0)
    Security Update 2011-003(installed today, 1 day after the problem started fyi)
    after that update my safari stopped working properly and my playback of videos got even worse than they got after my updates the 22. March. Included with these things my finder/spotlight started getting slower and slower, until it got to where it is now with files loading atleast 50% slower than before.
    @ Baby Boomer (USofA)
    I did not use the repair permissions before 3. June(fter the latest security update)
    I simply installed the updates and got prompted with the restart from the updates, followed it and then logged in after the updates was finished with the configuring.
    I have now repaired and verified the permissions, and can't seem to find any difference in the performance of my macbook.
    @ both sig and Baby Boomer (USofA)
    Thanks for the help so far, hope I can find a solution to this without having to format and reinstall everything again

  • Problems After Latest Security Update From March 10, 2015

    Is anyone having problems after the latest security update from March 10th?
    First my screen went from 16:9 to 4:3 and the resolution turned into a blocky 800 x 600. I managed to find a program
    online to correct this problem called SwitchResX. It's unfortunately a pay program for 14 Euro. Here's the link
    in case anyone needs it http://www.madrau.com/index.html
    Now some alias icons in my dock have disappeared, but are kinda visible when I run my mouse over them, their
    names pop up, but have no icons in the dock.
    Sometime booting up is clumsy with a lot of hang time and I have to restart my Mac Mini manually by pressing
    the button in the back to get a clean bootup to my desktop screen.
    Could Apple do a fix real soon for this Security Update blunder?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I too experienced problems with the keyboard and mouse on this G5, starting about a week ago when I installed the Java Release 6 and QuickTime 7.3.1 updates. The two symptoms I noticed most were slow, jerky scrolling through topic lists in MT-NewsWatcher (using the arrow keys) and difficulty with selecting text with the mouse in Safari (the selection being anchored several characters away from where I’d begin a click-&-drag).
    The latest patch, Security Update 2007-009 (PowerPC) v1.1, seems to have solved the problems for me.

  • Impossible problem after latest update of 10.5 and 10.6

    Hi all,
    I've an incredible problem that I'm not able to solve...:
    after latest update of 10.5 (some days before SL) I noticed that mouse movement was very strange and every 10 seconds (about) the mouse acceleration speeds up and after 1 seconds turn normal. The problem repeat in infinite cycle. With 10.6 and 10.6.1 is the same.
    I made also this test: I boot with Leopard DVD and tested the mouse movement on the install screen. The movement is ok but if I boot with Snow Leopard DVD the mouse movement on the install screen is wrong.
    Then... this is not a problem of a software on my hard disk (my first suspect) but some difference on the driver of the mouse that on my iMac has this problem.
    Someone can help me?
    Thank you all

    faabri
    What kind of mouse are you using?
    EDIT: I just saw your other post here . . .
    You should include all the detail in your post here, so that
    people can help you with as many facts as possible.

  • Problems after latest Security Update

    I installed the latest Security Update (009) and the Java update (Rel 6). Now my mouse has become very erratic and I cannot go directly to my mail on my host site like I did before the update. I have an iBook without the update on it and it works fine. The difference is that the updated machine has 523.12.2 on it and the iBook has 523.12 on it and I haven't updated Java either. Is there any to back off these updates? Help!!!

    I too experienced problems with the keyboard and mouse on this G5, starting about a week ago when I installed the Java Release 6 and QuickTime 7.3.1 updates. The two symptoms I noticed most were slow, jerky scrolling through topic lists in MT-NewsWatcher (using the arrow keys) and difficulty with selecting text with the mouse in Safari (the selection being anchored several characters away from where I’d begin a click-&-drag).
    The latest patch, Security Update 2007-009 (PowerPC) v1.1, seems to have solved the problems for me.

  • Boot up problems after latest Security Update

    I just arrived home after a three day vacation, and I booted up my Power Mac G4 running Tiger 10.4.11. Software Update immediately notified me of a Security Update, which I okayed. After restart, my screen showed the grey Apple logo for a bit, then went right to a grey circle with a slash through it. I restarted the machine with my Tiger Install disk and ran Disk Utility, and then ran through the Repair Disk Permissions and Repair Disk utilities, with no abnormalities noted. It'll boot into OS 9 just fine, but when I restart while hold down the Option key for Startup Disk select, then select the Mac OS X disk (I have two hard drives on my machine), it shows me the Circle/Slash icon again as before. What gives? everything was working fine until this blasted Security Update (I believe it was the 2008-004 update).
    I just recently upgraded my Mac OS X volume with a 500GB hard drive and a controller card, as my previous drive failed. Did something get messed up with that setup after this update?

    I don't know whether other users would make any difference, as I don't even get to the User Select screen yet- would changing my password really have any effect?
    Safe Boot will bring up the Login window if it gets that far.
    Not sure if the PW change would help, best to wait on that 'till after all else fails.
    PS. I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
    That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

  • Sound problem after upgrading to Yosemite.

    After upgrading to Yosemite, Sound driver suddenly stopped working as you see in the image.

    There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Some may not apply to your model. Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
    2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
    3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
    4. Other third-party software that has been reported to interfere with sound output includes "Boom" and "Samsung Kies." If applicable, uninstall according to the developer's instructions (not by dragging something to the Trash.)
    5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
    6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select Built-in Output from the list on the left. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them.
    7. If a red light is visible in the audio-out port when sound should be playing, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by the warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
    9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
    10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do notappear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    11. Reset the NVRAM.
    12. Reset the SMC.
    13. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/Audio
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Recreate your settings in the Sound preference pane.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    14. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
    15. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

  • OS X Yosemite problem after latest software update

    Hi there,
    I have MacBook Pro 13" Core i3 of December 2013. Everything was working fine until I got the latest update I don't remember which update that was exactly, and since then my whole computer is hanged, nothing is working decently and Microsoft products are also not working. Now it is not even booting up. I have Microsoft Windows s well, it is running efficiently on the same machine without any problem. Please update me if you have the same problem, or have got any solution to that. Thanks in advance. Khan

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Boot Camp partition corrupted after OS X Yosemite Recovery Update

  • Problems after latest update

    Anyone having troubles with Itunes after the latest update.  Mine wont open now

    I was having major problems too. I ended up completely uninstalling itunes then downloaded it again from http://www.apple.com/itunes/.  If you're using firefox, for some reason itunes will not download and I  don't know if using googlechrome will also have problems,so just to be  sure that it will work on your first try, use internet  explorer when you download itunes. Good LUCK!!
