Lost e-mail icon

I have lost my e-mail account icon on my BB but when I go to e-mail setup it tells me my account already exists. How do I get the icon back on to my home screen.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should dig around to see if the icon is either hidden or moved to a different folder (or perhaps both).
Good luck!

I have lost the mail icon....

I have lost the mail icon,and have downloaded the fix from apple but the icon is still not visible and I can't find it on my pc, and I therefore cannot access or send any mail from my macbook pro.Any suggestions to get the icon and mail back onto my pc?

Many thanks for all your assistance. I have downloaded the link you gave, but I have also used the install disks for the pc, and although the icon now appears in the Application folder, it still gives me the error message "You have Mail version 4.2 (1078/1084). It can’t be used on Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 (Build 10K549). " and does not open the mail.
Having downloaded the link and also installed from the disks that came with my pc, and restarted the pc a few times, I still cannot open the mail.
Any ideas?

HT4623 I updated my phone yesterday to ios7.0.4 and have lost the mail icon along the bottom of the screen which sits with safari, phone and the music icon. Has anyone else experienced this?

my phone is an iphone 4 and after the update to ios7.0.4 yesterday, i have lost all email facility. I dont have any email icon or button across the bottom of the phone which sits next to the phone, safari and music buttons. Has anyone else experienced this?? Thanks in advance

Hi kylie,
The Mail app cannot be deleted, so it is there somewhere. Look at all of your other Home screens to see if you can find it.
If you cannot, do a spotlight search to see if it got accidently moved into a folder: swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the search bar - type in Mail - you should see the Mail icon in the search results. If it got moved into a folder, you will see the folder name on the right side. If it is in a folder, open the folder, and tap and hold the Mail icon until it wiggles, then slide it out and back to the place where you want it to be.
If that doesn' work, you can also go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout. This will move all of your icons into the original order that they were on the phone. You may have to move stuff around after this to where you want it to be, but all of the Apple system apps will be on the first Home screen.
Cheers,
GB

Lost my MAIL option

some how or another , I lost my mail icon option . At once , it had the icon in the dock , but when I clicked on it , a ? mark appeared and no action could be made . Is there a way to reinstall my mail box without doing a complete disc download ? Is there a download link that someone could share ? thanks

Greetings,
There is no download for Mail, so if you deleted it, you'll have to reinstall it from your original Mac OS X installer disc. But you need to look in the /Applications folder to see if Mail is there; if so, then you don't need to reinstall it. In that case, you just need to select it and drag the icon back to the Dock.

I lost my safari and mail icons. How can I get them back in the screen?

I lost my safari and mail icons on the ipad screen. How can I get them back or where can I find them?

Have you checked all your homescreens and app folders for them, and do they show on the iPad's spotlight search screen (swipe your first homescreen to the right and type in Safari or Mail) ?
Safari can be hidden via Settings > General > Restrictions > Safari being 'off', so you could check that as well.
If you still can't find then try a reset and see if you can find them after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot
There is also Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout which will reset the layout of your apps and might make it easier to find them.

Lost Mail Icon/Application

I tried to click on the mail icon on the dashboard and it wouldn't open it just had a question mark appear over the icon. I tried to move the icon and it evaporated and I can't find any way to re-install it on my mac...Help!

Click on the item in the Finder's sidebar named Applications and look for Mail; if it isn't there, reinstall Mac OS X 10.5.

Mail icon wont open after ios update on iphone 5

After the IOS update today, my mail icon will not open and the screen seems to have lost sensitivity. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.

I have lost my mail and the bullet on bottom of page. How do I restore?

I have a Macbook Pro and I have done something that has lost my mail. I have tried going to the mail account but I cannot figure out what I have done. Also I have lost the rocket that usually appears at the bottom of my window. I think it may be something I have done but not sure what it was.

What Mac OS X version are you using?
Does the Mail window open? If so, please post a screenshot of the mail window as you see it now. Use command-shift-4 and drag across to take the screenshot, and the camera Icon on the forums to include it in a post.

I lost all the icons at the bottom of individual emails on my iPhone. How do I get them back???

I lost all the icons at the bottom of individual emails on my iPhone. How do I get them back???

Open the mail app then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the red slide to power off thing appears. Without sliding the bar, press and hold the home button until the app quits.
Also clear the mail app from multitasking bar too. Then open mail app and check again

Bouncing Mail icon

Hi,
I feel silly- but I know someone out there knows this in a New Yors second!
I have a MacBook Pro - everything the latest. With "MAIL" - it used to be when I receive an email - the little icon in the dock bounced, along with the sound effect.
I zereoed my HD - reinstalled everything fresh - and now . . . NO bouncing icon.
I was kinda getting to like him, bouncing around excitedly - I feel like I've lost an old friend!
Anybody know how to get it to bounce when new emails arrive? Everything else, is fine. Is there a preference somewhere?
Thanks,
Larry

Hi Ferd,
Thank you for your response. It seems you are EXACTLY CORRECT! I hae a friend who works for Apple - if you're curious, he said this . . .
"Add a rule in your Mail preferences that can either be global for all new email or for specific emails. You can have it ignore the unimportant ones. The rule can be: if new mail received, then bounce mail icon in dock. As for sound that should just be the General preference for New Mail. You choose which system sound to use. Sometimes system sounds get funky, especially when using other sound sources sound editing/hacking software. This causes all system sounds to stop. You may notice trash not emptying or iChat not being audible for incoming/outgoing messages. To fix this, you need to open Activity Monitor app and force quit the coreaudio process. It'll auto relaunch and your sounds should be back.
Hope this helps,
M"
And this basically completely agrees with you! Thanks again - problem solved!
Larry

Lost my contacts icon

I was trying to rearrange my icons and accidentally lost my contacts icon. When I search, it comes up but I can't tell where it is or how to get it back on my home screen. (I'm running iOS 7.1.2 on a new iPhone 5.)

Hi there Merry48,
The first thing you may want to try is resetting the Home sceen layout. This will return the built-in apps to their original layout on the Home screen and can be found under Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout. If the issue persists, then you may need to take a look at the the restriction settings on your device. The article below has more information.
iOS: Understanding Restrictions (parental controls)
Get help
If your iOS device is missing a particular application or a certain feature isn't available, make sure that Restrictions are off. Symptoms can include:
App missing from the Home screen (such as Safari, Camera, or FaceTime)
Feature or service unavailable (such as Siri or Location Services)
Setting missing or dimmed (such as Mail, Contacts, and Calendar; iCloud; Twitter; FaceTime)
Learn how to use Restrictions (or parental controls) in iTunes and how to prevent In-App Purchases.

I've lost my Downloads icon. Its not even in Finder, so I'm baffled!! A little box shows up when I am actually downloading stuff, then disappears. Where has it gone?? CCinNZ

I've lost my Downloads icon. It's not in Finder or anywhere else I've looked.
Has anyone found the solution as to where it goes.
I simply want to drag it back to my Dock.
Help.

Not Lost, just leave a downloaded Application or pdf in it and it will stay on the safari tool bar..
Downloaded files e.g.from Mail stay in the downloads folder in your home account in finder although this can be changed in Safari preferences.

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Restart the computer. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. Any custom stationery that you created may be lost. Ask for instructions if you want to preserve that data. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*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.
