Mail app displays No Subject, No Sender and No content in All Inboxes

On my iPad 2 in the mail app, when looking at mail in All Inboxes my iCloud emails display with No Sender, No Subject, and No Content. If I tap on it there is "nothing to display". If I go to the iCloud inbox everything displays fine. I have multiple inboxes which include an exchange, gmail and xfinity accounts. The emails from these accounts all display fine in the All Inbox view. The Exchange is my primary work account and the iCloud is my primary home accoun tso viewing both is convenient.
So far I have tried powering the iPad off and on. Shut the iCloud mail off and back on. Neither has worked. All messages display fine on my iPhone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks...Lenny

Quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or ....
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • The mail app won't receive or send unless I a) take all accounts offline and then online, or b) restart the mail app altogether.

    The mail app on my iPhone syncs fine, and if I login to the actual mail accounts via the internet my mail is all there. It's just the syncing of my mac mail app that's off.

    Stan, try setting up a new user on your PB, then open the same email account from there and test if the rules work. If they do, Mail in your normal user account is corrupt. Try disk utilities to repair permissions, drag pref files
    (user/library/preferences/com.apple.mail.plist) to the desktop and restart Mail to make a new one, see if that works.

    That's nonsense, if you look at the settings you will see you can put the entire device into Arabic if you want, as well as type and read Arabic emails and other docs.  The font is there, but for some reason the encoding is botched, either by the app or the place sending the email to the iPad.

  • When I edit a contact's email address and then type the name in the Mail App, I see both the new and old address.  Why don't I see only the new email address?

    When I edit an email address in the Contacts App, and the type the Contact's name in the Mail App, I get both the old and new contacts.  Why don't I get only the updated email address?

    Mail remembers previously used email addresses for a period of time. Those you no longer use will eventually disappear. After you have sent one or two emails to the new address the old address will move below the new one. Then after a period of time not sending to the old address it will disappear. Patience is the key.

  • PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

    PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox.  Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
    When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions.  It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app.  But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone.  And not in the Deleted box.  Just gone.  Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up.  Please help.
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
    Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
    At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
    Next...
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
    At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
    Select All = command A

    i found out my prob!
    here is what you do.
    go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
    click "software updates".
    click "installed software"
    if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
    go to mail.
    click "mail" at the top.
    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
    hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
    its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

    . You do not need a seperate Apple ID. One one device you just need to go to Settings>Messages and add another/different Messaging email address and delete the common Apple ID address. Also see:

  • Can't send mail with powerbook G4, mail.app, mac OS 10.5.8 and verizon smtp server.

    We just made the switch to Verizon.
    Setting up Mail.app with my relatively new MacBook Pro (and OS 10.8.4) was very smooth.
    Not so with my wife's old PowerBook G4 running 10.5.8, which she inherited from my daughter.
    It seems to set up fine, using the same settings for the servers as on the MBP (it has to be done manually), but it is unable to send mail (via the verizon smtp server). The Connection Doctor thing does not have any trouble finding the servers and connecting.
    I get the "The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server smtp.verizon.net." message.
    These settings work when sending email from this verizon account from her iphone, or from my MBP.
    I successfully set up my .me email account on the G4 and that was able to send mail.
    Couldn't find anything online to shed light on this. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Your asking peers here.
    You didn't say which settings you were trying to use.   Lots of people are posting about switching over to the latest EMAIL settings which include pop.verizon.net and smtp.verizon.net as the servers.  However it has invariably been a  mistake they are making or a special requirement of there DEVICE such as a shutdown and restart.
    You should take a look at http://verizon.com/emailsettings .  There are both the manual settings and some automatic trouble shooters that may be able to setup your device.

  • Mail.app keeps multiple copies in Draft and does not delete after send

    I have just recently noticed this problem and it seems to be getting worse. I am on Mountain Lion 10.8.1 and I'm using an exchange server (2010) email account.
    I do not recall this problem being this bad in Lion.  When I save a draft go back into it, make changes, it saves a bunch of copies. I just deleted about 30 emails from one draft. 
    The 2nd issue is it does not leave the draft folder when I actually send, so it appears I never sent it, but I did. This is extremely frustrating and not efficient.  I use Mail for my business email and all my personal emails as well, but mainly business. 
    I don't like Outlook for Mac (too slow), and I really don't like Mail for Mac either since my contacts and calendar are all in different apps.
    Does anyone have a solution for the DRAFTS folder issues and/or can you recommend another e-mail client that is better. Outlook 2011 for Mac is just too slow, the beach ball is always showing when I try to use Outlook.  And I really prefer not to have to go back to Windows Outlook through Parallels. I can manage with Mail.app if I could resolve this Drafts issue.  I save emails all day long so to double check each one to see if I actually sent it is too time consuming.
    I'm running on a Macbook Pro, 2.2 Ghz Intel Core i7, 8 GB memory.
    Thanks in advance.

    I am too having the same issue. While working on Snow Leopard Mail app was working fine, bue te moment I upgraded to Lion OS, I began to see some mail laying around my draft folder. I thought they never left, but make a few call I found everyone was receiving my email, but for some strage reason, a copy stayed in drafts. I submitted this bug to Apple, and they actually told me they were aware of this issue and they were working on that. A year went by and we received Mountalion OS, and my iMac with Lion OS still has this issue. They never solved that. Now I am with this new iMac at home and and I am fighting myself not to use Mail app because, as far as I can see, the problme persist on Mountain Lion. So now, at this very moment I will give a try to PostBox (http://www.postbox-inc.com/)
    My bussiness mail is mounted on Google apps, so I hope this works

  • Mail app displays the wrong Inbox when you open it.

    This problem can be easily reproduced if you have more than one email account configured in iOS 4.x
    It should be extremely simple to fix with the next update. I see that this same problem has been mentioned before, but I couldn't update that thread because it's "archived." If you want Apple to fix this, please report the issue to Apple using one or more of the links below:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html (not sure if iPad Mail app is affected)
    Here's what I submitted...
    Subject:
    Simple software design issue in Mail app.
    Feedback Type:
    Design/Ease of Use
    Comments:
    Thanks for your work on making iOS better and better with each update! There is no option to provide general iOS feedback, so I'll submit this under "iPhone" and "iPod." I'm currently using the latest iOS (4.3.1).
    The native Mail app in iOS has had the Unified Inbox feature since iOS 4.0, which is very useful. However, there is a minor design flaw that could be easily resolved with a software update.
    My setup:
    I have 3 Exchange accounts on my device (Hotmail, Gmail[Default], Work). The Hotmail Inbox is empty at least 98% of the time because my Gmail account periodically downloads the messages. The only reason I have the Hotmail account entered on my device is to make sure I can see a message in "All Inboxes" even before my Google account retrieves it. On my device, the Gmail account is set as default for Mail and Contacts.
    The problem:
    I never intentionally select the Inbox for the Hotmail account because it should almost always be empty. I would simply view "All Inboxes." Still, half the time I open the Mail app, it shows the empty Hotmail Inbox. This is very annoying!
    I finally figured out how to reproduce it consistently:
    (must have more than one account configured)
    1) Launch the Mail app and back-up to the screen that shows the list of accounts / Inboxes (I usually try to leave it here when I'm done, hoping to see that screen the next time I open Mail).
    2) Without selecting a specific account or Inbox, push the Home button to exit the Mail app.
    3) Kill the Mail process from the multi-tasking menu.
    4) Open Mail again
    Mail will show whichever Inbox comes immediately after "All Inboxes", even if it's not your default account. In my case, it starts in the empty Hotmail Inbox every time...a folder that I never intentionally select. Each time, I have to go back to the list and tap "All Inboxes."
    So, if I leave Mail on the root screen before killing the process, it consistently displays the wrong Inbox the next time I open it. If I select an Inbox or "All Inboxes," it will remember that selection and show me that screen the next time I open Mail.
    What it should do:
    When Mail doesn't know which Inbox to display, it should...
    A. Start on the root screen with the list of accounts and Inboxes (preferred option).
    or B. Start in "All Inboxes" (secondary preference).
    or C. Start in the Inbox of the default account (not preferred, but better than showing an empty/unused Inbox).
    Thank you!

    Try this...
    Launch the Mail app.
    Navigate to the "Mailboxes" page (the page that lists all of your accounts).
    Tap "Edit" in the top right corner.
    Scroll down to the bottom section of the page, titled "ACCOUNTS".
    Drag the triple-bars on the right to reorder the accounts listed. The first account listed will be the one that the app launches to.
    Hope this helps, I went crazy trying to figure that out and it worked for me.

  • IPad mini mail app display rotation

    My iPad mini mail app rotation is locked.  No other app or display is affected.  How do I unlock?  How did it get locked?

    Sorry, I should have been clearer. I'm pretty familiar with how my ipad works. There appears to be a legit bug with the software, at least for some users. When I load mail, sometimes it's stuck in one orientation, even if the rest of the ipad apps are able to rotate freely. I don't always notice it because sometimes the ipad is oriented in the same direction as mail, but other times it's not and when you start the mail app, the screen loads upside down. Switch to another app, back to right side up and so on. You have to either turn the ipad over, or kill the mail app by double tapping the home button and ending the program from the list of running apps.
    After you do that, the mail app starts to rotate again normally when changing the orientation of the device. No reset is required, by the way, as is posted above - at least on mine. Killing the app alone is enough to 'fix' the problem.
    I've seen a number of posts where someone posts the 'fix' as a solution to this issue, but I don't consider it a reasonable resolution. Even if killing the mail app works, the problem just comes back a week or two later, very randomly. So then you end up having to do the 'fix' over and over again whenever the mail app flakes out.
    So, I'm wondering when Apple is going to actually fix this issue.

  • Mail app closes when trying to send email

    I can receive mail ok, but when I try to send, it just closes the mail app and goes back to the home page.
    Any suggestions how I can get the mail app working properly again?
    Thanks

    Ah, yes... a common problem.  Relaying is when you are using email service A to send mail through, but your "from" address is another service.  Service A, if it's set up for this, will reject your email because you are trying to relay the email through them from an email address that is not theirs.  This is to prevent spammers from using their service even though they don't have an account with them.
    I suspect the service you are sending to is one on which you have a valid account, but you're sending "from" another address.  In such cases the relaying service may allow you to specify, in your email settings, your account and password, in which case it will accept your email and pass it through.

  • Mail app won't let me send mail

    Since updating to the newest operating system, my Mail app rarely works. I have three different work accounts set up with it and it only recently started connecting them all again. However, I'm still not able to send any mail at all from any of the accounts and I can't figure out why. I know that the passwords are all correct and I have always been able to send from here. The connection doctor just keeps saying it can't connect to my accounts when I'm trying to send.  The purpose of me using the app is so that I don't constantly need to log in and out of different accounts in my browser. Does anyone know how to make this work again?

    Similar problem here. The Troubleshooting link from Linc did not help, nor did over two hours on the phone with Apple Support using screen sharing. I have iCloud mail with three addresses: .mac, .me and .icloud. None of them will send. This issue has occurred fitfully for years, across multiple iMacs and Operating Systems. This time it has lasted for a week, forcing me to use iCloud Mail in Safari to send emails.
    While talking to Support we tried to Edit the SMTP Server List, creating a new server at smtp.mail.me.com. After plugging in all the appropriate data and saving, it all vanished and reverted to Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): iCloud (iCloud, Offline). The newly created SMTP server was gone. Two different Support Techs watched this happen multiple times. I have signed out of iCloud and then recreated the account. I have even done a Clean Install of Yosemite, which involved hours and hours and then setting all my Prefs manually so as not to drag in any old, corrupt files. No change. Outgoing email sits in the Outbox folder and periodically pops up an error message saying it can't be sent.
    In the past this issue only affected my iMac. Now it is also crippling outgoing mail on my MacBook.
    Besides the Clean Install I have: Rebuilt Permissions, Reset PRAM and SMC, repaired Prefs, etc., etc.
