Mail.app stops synching with Exchange server

It's my second day using Lion at work, and things have been going pretty smooth.  That is, except for mail.app.  I opened my copy of Exchange on my PC in the office (to set the out-of-office message (if there is one in mail.app I havent found it)) and was surprised to see a bunch of mail waiting for me.  I right-clicked on my Inbox in mail.app, chose Synchronize and... nothing.  I figured I would close it out and restart it.  When I choose Quit, nothing happens.  If I go back again Quit is greyed out.  There are no apparent dialogue windows or anything open that should stop it.  Finally I have to Force Quit the app and restart it.  Upon restarting most of the messages appear again in seperate windows as if I hadn't hit sent yet.  I close them out and all of my mail is waiting in the Inbox like it should be.
I'm using the Exchange connect feature introducted in Snow Leopard.
This is the requisite "I had no problems with this setup until upgrading to Lion" line.
Is anyone else having this problem?  Anyone have a fix?
Thanks!

Is Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Automatically synchronize changed mailboxes checked? It shouldn’t...

  • Mail app constantly synching with iCloud server after upgrade to Mavericks

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, Mail has been constantly synching with the iCloud server - and I mean constantly. I know this because I have the Activity window open. Consequently there is often a significant lag between clicking Send on a new message and it being sent, or new messages being downloaded. I have another iMac at my office and the same problem is being experienced there.
    I left the computer running all night to see if it would eventually sych everything, but it seems to be going in a constant cycle ever since the upgrade.
    If it means anything to anyone, the Console window displays a continuous stream of data similar to this:
    9:24:37.448 am fseventsd[48]: implementation_added_client : failed to add client for path /Users/Kevin/Library/Mail/V2/AosIMAP-kbish…
    9:24:37.449 am fseventsd[48]: implementation_register_rpc: implementation_added_client() => 22
    9:24:39.808 am fseventsd[48]: implementation_added_client : failed to add client for path /Users/Kevin/Library/Mail/V2/AosIMAP-kbish…
    9:24:39.809 am fseventsd[48]: implementation_register_rpc: implementation_added_client() => 22
    Can anyone offer any advice on what the problem might be and how I might fix it.
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    No solution here, but I have either the same or a similar problem. Apple Mail with Gmail (IMAP) used to work fine with Mavericks.
    Now with Yosemite most emails load ok, but some show the spinning wheel and "Loading..." message forever. These messages never load.
    I also have Thunderbird and it loads and shows these messages just fine. The messages that don't load in Mail are simple plain text messages so it's unrelated to complex attachments and such.
    Clearly something is broken in Yosemite that wasn't broken in Mavericks.

  • TS3276 OS X Mavericks Mail does not sync with Exchange Server

    After moving to Mavericks, mail, contacts, anc calendars do not sync with our exchange server. It will set up the first time and then stop sycning. Is there a way to delete the mail app and reinstall. All other Apple devices sync with the exchange server with no issues.

    It was my DNS settings. I had my Airpot pointing to OpenDNS, and for some reason iCal and Address Book could not find their way to my exchange server. I changed the setting to use my ISP's DNS and now everything works fine.

  • Mail no longer functions with Exchange server update

    Yesterday, the IS dept. where I work applied some updates to the MS Exchange mail server and now Mail will no longer retrieve my email from the server. I can send email, but not receive. The mail shows up in my queue, but never reaches Mail's inbox. Has anyone encountered a similar problem and if so, do you know why this might be happening? What did you do to fix it?
    Currently, their solution is to switch us to Entourage but, in my experience, that app is too buggy to act as a real solution to any problem. And unfortunately, our support people are very Windows-oriented and usually won't bother with Mac issues unless prodded or given a good hint as to where to look. Any pointers I could pass along would be helpful.

    Here's my 2¢:
    We (the Mac folks) ran into the same thing when CORP upgraded to Exchange 2003. IT decided they did not want to support alternative e-mail clients (Linux/Mac, or other), so they shut down port 143. In doing so, they forced us to use Entourage, or the web client.
    I know that Mail has an 'exchange' server when setting up account, but it uses port 143.
    Well, that my story...and I still really dislike Entourage.

  • Mail.app supports accessing to Exchange Server through WebDAV OWA

    I have been reading many threads from both here and Microsoft in order to get my mail.app work with my Exchange Server via WebDAV and/ or OWA.
    My case is that I am fine with Entourage but not mail.app.
    Something a few of us may miss is that Mail.app automatically amend the field "Outlook Web Access Server" to something like mail.myserver.com regardless of what you type, as in most cases the correct address is mail.myserver.com/exchange
    So I am digging into my ~/Library/Application Support/Mail and try to find where exactly mail.app store the Account Information but I came out with no luck.
    Can someone guide me through where is the setting stored because I think forcefully change that "auto change" Outlook Web Access Server address may well fix the problem many of us face.

    With 10.5 and Mail 3.0, any luck for this topic?

  • Mail.app Stopped Working with Google Apps Account

    I have accessed my Google Apps e-mail account via Mail.app for many months with no problems. Then all of a sudden yesterday it has stopped working. I can't download new messages no matter what I do, and it does not give me any errors such as wrong username/password. I have tried sending a few test e-mails out and they get sent even though Mail.app shows the message as still being sent endlessly (the blue progress bar goes to about 50% and then just sits there, however the recipient receives the e-mail). Has anyone experienced this problem? It may be a complete coincidence, but I also just upgraded my version of Aperture 2 to Aperture 3 and it has been having all sorts of problems (which others are experiencing as well). Any help is greatly appreciated.

    After some searching I have found a solution. I had to delete the contents of the following folder:
    ~/Library/Mail/myemailaccount/.OfflineCache/
    Note: replace "myemailaccount" with the appropriate folder on your computer that represents your e-mail account. Once I deleted the contents of this folder (there were 2 files), and restarted Mail, there were no problems.
    Hope this helps a few people in the future!

  • IMAP still not synching with Exchange Server... Come on Apple!

    I have IMAP set up to my company server from the iPad. Reason being so that I can manage emails (delete, move to folders etc) whilst working off-line.
    But any changes made via the iPad are not synching and updating on the Exchange Server once back on-line.
    Really hoped iOS4 would fix this, but no. This really is the most useless tool for a regular business traveller. Not being able to catch up on email and sort, delete, reply etc on short haul European flights is in-excusable for a 2010 business tool Apple!
    Unless I'm missing something??!!
    Message was edited by: Tuskaa7

    Yes thanks Graham.
    It is a big oversight in my mind and one which makes me carry a laptop most times, somewhat negating the need for the iPad. Thus actually adding a business tool I need to carry, rather than reduce in size and weight etc. I real shame for me and one which actually makes the iPad almost redundant most of the time.
    I know having searched these forums and speaking with colleagues etc, it is a common feeling and one which Apple should address asap in my mind.
    Thanks anyway,
    Keith

  • Mail has stopped synching with .mac

    Hi there ... not sure why but Mail has stopped automatically synching with my .mac account. I haven't changed any settings and it has been working well for almost a year. For some reason now I need to go to the menu "Mailbox -> "Synchronize .Mac Account". I am using OS 10.3.9. Any help greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

  • Mavericks Mail not working properly with Exchange server after upgrade from Lion

    Mail will no longer maintain a stable connection to my company's Exchange server after upgrading to Mavericks from Lion.  Nothing has been changed on the Exchange server.  It has only partially downloaded the messages that are on the server.  It seems to download current messages when they hit the server.  It has difficulty sending messages.  When I send a message, it gets stuck in the Outbox.  It is constantly losing the connection to the server.  The problem is only occuring with Exchange email.  My iCloud email works properly as well as a POP3 account.

    No shortage of pre-existing threads on Mavericks mail issues...

  • Mail now having trouble with exchange server

    Hi There,
    We use a hosted exhange server for email which has been working fine for the last year but all of a sudden we seem to be having issues copnnecting - Mail just sits there with the spining animation and the Activity window displaying a variety of messages such as:
    "Syncing Inbox"
    "Requesting latest information"
    "Traversing mailbox hierarchy"
    "Adding messages"
    I've talked to our provider and they say nothing's changed their end but we're seeing this issue several times a day accross both 10.7 and 10.6 macs and in different locations (work, home and when traveling).
    Normally a restart will fix the issue but I know have a Mac that is just stuck - and a restart doesn't work.
    Does anyone know how I might trouble shoot this issue and how I can help our provider to understand what might be happening on the Mac side?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Cheers
    Ben

    So it looks like the issue was an untrusted certificate as overnight, all my email is back.
    However, any messages that came in during that time can't be filed or even deleted - I see this error:
    The message “Re:message subject"” could not be moved to the mailbox “Actioned — [email protected]”
    An error occurred while moving messages to mailbox “Actioned — [email protected]”
    Does any one know what the problem might be?
    Cheers

  • IPhone won't synch with exchange server after ios5 upgrade

    I upgraded to ios5 last night.  I did not get the 3002 error however after reboot it asked me about use of location services, etc and then later about the "find my iphone" feature - at this point the phone got stuck - no matter which selection I made when I picked the Done button nothing happened.  I had to do a reset and it came back up OK (not sure what the status is of Find My Iphone feature - but more pressing is the fact that I can't connect to our exchange server.  After putting in my credentials it seems to connect and the name of the mail server gets filled in, but then in the next step it says "Unable to verify account information" and its game over.
    Any thoughts if this is a phone setting or a server setting?  I think we are using Exchange 2003.
    Thanks - Jack Jolly
    CAD Admin, URS Corp

    Not sure what happened - but its working now.  Our IT guys may have done something on the server side.  If I can get any details I will post them.  Look forward to picking up additional tips from this forum!

  • All sub-folders in Mac Mail cannot synchronize with Exchange Server 2010

    Hi all,
    All sub-folders under Inbox in Mac Mail cannot be synchronized with Exchange Server 2010. There are 2GB messages size in Inbox folder and 500MB messages size under Inbox's sub-folders. All messages can be sent out and received and it can work in Outlook 2007 and Outlook 2010 normally. However, all messages in sub-folders cannot be synchronized (empty sub-folders).
    Does this problem relate to message synchronization order of Mac Mail with Exchange Server? Do all sub-folders messages be synchronized after synchronization complete of Inbox? The synchronization of sub-folders will not happen if the synchronization of Inbox does not complete, doesn't it?
    All messages synchronization is over internet. Can anybody help?
    Thanks a lot

    Hi,
    1.please check the mailbox send and receive quota for exchange 2013 migrated mailbox.
    2.Please check the email attributes of the exchange 2013 migrated mailbox because it seems to be a problem with that particular mailbox.
    3.Then do the message tracking and that would be the only way to find the where the send messages has gone.
    4.Please check and confirm you have an enough space on the disk where exchange queue database is residing.
    I think I need to create a receive connector in the 2013 to receive from 2010 ?
    No need ,by design  exchange 2013 cas server default frontend receive connector will be having an
    entire ipv4 and ipv6 segment and anonymous connection is checked by default.
    I think I also need to create a send and receive connector for 2013 users to each other?
    No need , an intra organisation send connector and the default receive connectors in exchange will be used
    for internal mail flow between the exchange 2013 users.
    Please reply me if you have any queries .
    Regards

  • Windows 8.1 Mail App doesn't sync Exchange account on desktop but does on laptop

    I was referred to this forum by another Microsoft engineer, and while I do not believe this is where this problem can be resolved, I'm following his instructions.
    I have Windows 8.1 on my desktop PC and an ASUS X205TA laptop. For several months, the three accounts I have under Mail (two Outlook.com accounts and one Microsoft Exchange work account) synced properly on my desktop. 
    In fact, the Mail app on my desktop worked fine with my Exchange account from the first time I used it under Windows 8 in 2012. The version didn’t seem to matter – whether it was Windows 8 Consumer Preview, Windows 8, or Windows 8.1, the Mail app
    connected to my Microsoft Exchange account simply by filling in my email address and password.
    Sometime this past summer, however, in the July timeframe, the Mail app stopped synchronizing with my Exchange account. In an effort to repair it, I removed and attempted to reinstall the account. This time, it would not let me load the Exchange account, even
    when including additional information (domain, server, user name, et. al.).
    This past fall, I purchased the ASUS notebook with Windwows 8.1 installed, and I was able to successfully load my Exchange account in Windows Mail using just my email address and password, as well as the two Outlook.com accounts, and all three accounts synchronize
    properly. When I went back to my desktop, however, I noticed that the Liberty email account was listed under my Mail app. Apparently, since my laptop and desktop configurations are registered under the same Microsoft account, when they synchronized, the Liberty
    email account which I successfully loaded on my notebook appeared on my desktop system as well. 
    The Mail app on the desktop, however, still can’t synchronize with my Exchange account so, in effect, I’m back to where I was in July. I would also add that I'm running Microsoft Outlook 2013 on my desktop and laptop and, in both cases, all three of my email
    accounts are installed and working properly.
    I don’t know if this information gives you insight into what the problem might be, but it’s apparent that there’s something in the configuration of my desktop Windows Mail app that is causing the problem. It’s working just fine on my notebook.
    I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Mail app multiple times, run the App Troubleshooter, and tried a Clean Boot installation of the Exchange account. None of these fixed the problem.
    As I told the other Microsoft engineer, if this were an Exchange problem, I wouldn't be able to connect to my Exchange account in Outlook 2013 on my desktop and my laptop, nor would I be able to connect to my Exchange account using Windows 8.1 Mail
    on my laptop.
    The problem is specifically with the Windows 8.1 Mail app on my desktop PC, and its sudden inability to sync with my Exchange account after it worked in every iteration of Windows 8 since 2012.
    I have posted this issue in this forum as suggested, but my troubleshooting does not point to an Exchange problem, but rather a Windows 8.1 Mail app problem on my desktop PC.
    Can you help?

    Hello ronontheright,
    Do you mean that only the Exchange account in the desktop Mail app can’t sync?
    Please take a look at the following article.
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2012/11/26/supporting-windows-8-mail-in-your-organization.aspx
    Exchange ActiveSync can be used to sync data for email, contacts, and calendar. The Windows 8 Mail app supports Exchange ActiveSync.
    Please open the Windows Store app Calendar and People to check if they can normally sync.
    Please try to remove the account in Mail app and sign in again and check if the issue still exists.
    Best regards,

  • IOS health app stopped synching

    Has anyone else had their IOS 8.2 Health app stop synching with the Wahoo Fitness app? My data has stopped synching on the 12 March (after an IOS update?). I have all the historic and manually entered Fitness data present in the Health app upto and including the 12 March, then nothing is synched. When I try a manual synch from the Fitness app on data after the 12th March, I get the "com.apple.healthd.sqlite error 1" message.

    I'm having the exact same problem. I've even tried:
    1. Turn off all syncing by theirs-party sources.
    2. Delete all third-party apps that might sync data so that the Health App "Sources" list is empty
    3. Reset all settings on the phone.
    4. Reload third-party apps one by one
    5. Selectively turn on syncing by third-party apps and only sync categories I really want to see.
    All to no avail. The Health App crashes constantly and when trying to input data into third-party apps, those apps will crash also.
    I'm currently trying to sync data with:
    UP by Jawbone (UP24)
    Withings HealthMate (Withings WiFi scale)
    MyFitnessPal
    Runtastic
    Nike+

  • Mail stopped authenticating with Exchange account

    Strange problem here. About a month ago, Mail suddenly stopped authenticating with my Exchange account which is hosted by Fasthosts, citing the error 'The exchange server exchange.livemail.co.uk rejected the password for user...'.
    No settings had been changed, my web hosts swear blind they've not changed the way Exchange email is authenticated or updated their installation, or done anything that might cause this problem. My password is definitely correct as I use it for both Entourage and for Outlook Web Access.
    If I alter the exchange server details, I get a different error message (sever not found)... so I'm fairly sure Mail is getting through to the server, but is experiencing some sort of authentication problem that it previously wasn't.
    Does anyone have any idea what might have caused this to happen? I've tried all authentication protocols allowed in Mail and none of them work. I've also attempted re-establishing the account in Mail both by deleting it and starting again, and by trying it as a different user, and no go: it used to work great, now it doesn't. Entourage works fine.
    I'm completely at a loss here - any suggestions would be gratefully received.
