Mail app won't remain full screen at restart

I'm using sparrow on 10.8.2, and everything was perfect a couple of days ago...until it would always open in normal mode and require that one click to go back to full screen every time it starts. I'm pretty sure it's because I did something wrong...because it was fine before...but I can't seem to figure out what I did wrong? I even delete the app and reinstall, restart the computer...
Please help~! Thank you.
Nevermind...I got it. It's  > System Preferences > General > Restore windows when quitting and re-opening apps....
Which I just turned off a couple of days ago because I didn't want safari to start every time with the previously browsed webpages...
Guess no way around this conflict then...

Hold down the power button on your iPad until it has a slide switch saying "Slide to Power Off." Slide that switch and let the iPad power all the way down. Now hold the button again until the Apple Logo appears and let the iPad turn back on. This usually solves rotation issues.

  • Mail App Won't Rotate with screen...

    Whenever I use The mail app, the screen is always horizontal...
    Is this part Of iOS 6, or is my iPad not working correctly?

  • Have reset Firefox & completed all of steps in "Flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites", but video still won't work. Help!

    I have reset Firefox, completed all the steps in "flash video won't play full screen on YouTube, Facebook and other websites". And the video still won't play in full screen. It will play, but frequently stops or sound continues and picture freezes. I have noticed that if I continually move my mouse, it plays fine. All these videos play fine in IE and Chrome.

    Some problems with Flash video playback can be resolved by disabling hardware acceleration in your Flash Player settings. (See [[Flash Plugin - Keep it up to date and troubleshoot problems|this article]] for more information on using the Flash plugin in Firefox).
    To disable hardware acceleration in Flash Player:
    #Go to this [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/video-playback-issues.html#main_Solve_video_playback_issues Adobe Flash Player Help page].
    #Right-click on the Flash Player logo on that page.
    #Click on '''Settings''' in the context menu. The Adobe Flash Player Settings screen will open.
    # Click on the icon at the bottom-left of the Adobe Flash Player Settings window to open the Display panel. <br/> <br/>[[Image:fpSettings1.PNG]] <br/>
    # Remove the check mark from '''Enable hardware acceleration'''.
    # Click '''Close''' to close the Adobe Flash Player Settings Window.
    # Restart Firefox.
    This [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/help01.html Flash Player Help - Display Settings page] has more information on Flash Player hardware acceleration, if you're interested.
    Does this solve the problem? Let us know.

  • Cover Flow won't go full screen anymore

    I just installed Windows 7 last week and Cover Flow was going full screen, and a week later I just get two arrows, and not the 4 arrows in each corner, and Cover Flow won't go full screen.
    Any ideas?

    I obviously had tried this a few times before, but I decided to try a regular restart for a 5th time and it magically started working.
    Sorry!

  • Mail app won't show photos

    This problem exists in all three new iPhone 4s's in my family:  The Mail app won't display some photos attached to emails.  Some photos show up, others don't.  All are jpeg's with the proper .jpg appendage, all are relatively small files (approx 200kb).  The ones that show up and the ones that don't are the same in all three iPhones.  The photos all do show up on desktop and laptop computers.  On the iPhones, in Settings/Mail, Contacts, Calenders/Load Remote Images is turned on.  I tried turning the setting off, then on, tried rebooting the iPhone, nothing works.

    lou tetl,
    The list in iTunes under the Info tab is the list of accounts you can transfer the settings for from your computer directly to the iPhone.
    It is not a list of the accounts on the iPhone, or a list of all accounts on your computer.
    Hope this helps,

  • Mail.app won't work properly after installing Yosemite

    My "new viewer window" in Mail.app won't work after installing Yosemite. I can not access the viewer window and thus none of my email.
    How can I fix this?
    Mail.app v 8.0

    some updates on this issue, Mail application uses the same proxy that has been set on your system (system preferences==>Network==>Advanced==>proxies). People usually use HTTP/HTTPS proxy for surfing the web. You should make sure to set SOCKS proxy as well. Mail application works with SOCKS proxy. Note that port number for SOCKS proxy is usually different from the port number for HTTP and HTTPS but the IP address of  your server (apparently) is the same.
    Hope this helps

  • Mail app won't open

    Mail app won't open from icon -- any ideas

    Hello,
    Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup),  it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this folder & file to the Desktop.
    Move this Folder to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
    Move this file to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Reboot.
    If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
    Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

  • Mail.app won't leave my password field blank.

    mail.app won't leave my password field blank on OS X Mavericks. I need it blank for security.  How to fix?

    anyone, anyone? I switched from a Windows desktop, and frankly, have had little but problems with the supposedly perfect mac... At least I could send **** emails on my Windows machine...

  • Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

    Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.
    Chris

    Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

  • Mail app won't send messages out

    I am logged into gmail on my iPhone 4 mail app. I tried to reply to a message yesterday and it wouldn't work. The message sat in my outbox saying "unsent" because I needed to go to my mail account settings and enter a password. Well I went to settings, mail, account, and my password was stored there. I re-typed it anyway to see what would happen. I went back to the mail app, and the message still has not sent. But now I don't have an Outbox folder on the main page either! The only way I know it's still unsent is because when the app refreshes, it says 1 Unsent Message on the bottom of the screen.
    So my question is, what is going on, where did my outbox go, why did it tell me to enter a password, and most importantly, why won't my message send?!
    I was connected to wifi, if that makes a difference. And does it make a difference if it was a reply versus a new message? I just tried a test email, connected through 3G, and it says it sent.

    Something stuck in the cache? Try a reset. To reset the iPhone, press and hold the home and sleep/wake buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignore the slide to power off prompt).

  • Mail - can't reply in full screen mode

    Hi there
    I've been enjoying running Mail in Lion in full screen mode. However if I try to reply to a message, I don't get the reply window come up. It fails whether I use the keyboard shortcut, click on the icon or use the menu command.
    I have to leave full screen mode to get a reply message window.
    Any clues on this?

    I found this solution online today it worked for me I hope it solves your problem if you haven't already solved it.
    This solved my question by BRegan6 on Oct 29, 2014 2:26 PM
    I've just gotten off the phone with Apple Support who solved this problem.  Open mail.  Go to Mail Preferences/Viewing and Check box "Use classic view".  Then open a new mail viewer window (File/New Viewer Window).  At this point, assuming you have the same problem that I did where you can only see the window showing emails, but not the email preview window, move your cursor so it hovers right at the bottom edge of the window.  The cursor will change to a horizontal bar and an up arrow.  Click and drag up a few inches.  At this point you should now be able to see the email preview window.  Now go back to Mail preferences and uncheck classic view.  The window now stays open in non-classic view.  Hope this works for you too.

  • My Mail app sends me to home screen when I open it

    Let me tell you what I have done after reading all of the threads on this forum about this issue.
    • Closed the app mail and restarted it #RollEyes #duh

    I've been using apple products since I was 5 years old, family of electrical engineers, and I'm stumped. I love apple and the reason I've used their products is to avoid software malfunctions etc. . . I'm not gonna lie, it's gotten worse over the last few years with Apple's growing popularity. . .
    Gonna need a solution as I use my mail for work on a daily basis
    using iPhone 5S Champagne with latest software 7.0.4
    <Personal Information Edited by Host>

    Restore as new, THEN restore from the backup. It seems as if the Mail App is corrupted. Last Sunday this happened to me on my iPad (Mail app quitting, just like in your case). I restored as new, then reinstalled the backup. Luckily I had a backup (from the day before) which was backed up BEFORE the mail problem appeared.
    If the above does not solve your problem, I suggest restoring as new and redownloading each app individually, and then transferring your photos from iPhoto on the Mac (or whataever photo app on Windows) and content independently.
    If that does not solve your prblem, there might be a hardware problem.

  • Mail app won't stay open and keeps crashing

    I use iPhone 7.1. Every time I open my Mail app, it crashes. I don't know why.
    I have maybe 700,000 unread emails, fourteen different email accounts (8 Gmails, 2 iClouds, 2 Gmx's, and 2 AOLs, all of which are linked together through my Mail app), over 16,000 photos, and 0 bytes of free space left on my phone.
    I've had my phone since 23 May 2013.
    I bought it off Amazon for $161.
    How can I get my Mail app to work again? Whenever I open the Mail app, it stays open for about 60 seconds, then a black screen appears, and the Mail app crashes.

    Hi don290022,
    If you are having issues with your iPhone's Mail application becoming unresponsive, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
    First, quit all running applications and test again -
    Force an app to close in iOS
    Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • .mac account in Mail.app won't download mail - it freezes

    I just screenshared my mother for about 4 hours (there is about a 20 second lag time between every click i enter and the response on her end, maddening!! but that's another story).
    Her AOL IMAP accounts are working fine in Mail.app, but her .mac account is not. It will not download any new mail that is sitting on the server. It shows that non-beachball circle-line progress thing, nonstop.
    Weirder still, I went on her screen, composed an email to myself, and sent it. The Mail Activity showed that it was sending at speeds like 5 kbps... for 10 minutes, until I force quitted. However, I got the email in my account seconds after I sent it. So SOMEHOW the outgoing email is working, even though it froze her own Mail.app in a perpetual "Sending" progress circle.
    The application will not quit... it must be force quit every time. I tried deleting the .mac account and re-adding it. I deleted the plist. I verified that the connection doctor has all green lights and says it logged into the server successfully. I tried using SSL and not SSL connections. This was an issue in 10.5.2 and persists in 10.5.3. She is on DSL plugged straight into the computer. All other internet functionality seems to be working normally.
    WHAT could possibly be making Mail screw up the .mac account, but not an AOL IMAP account?
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

    I went to settings > mail, contacts, calendars and did not find a notifications setting.  But that's not the issue.  When I open the mail app and force an update, new email is not downloaded, even though I can see new email on my computer.
