Mail Blank Screen, Then Quits

Help!  I attempted to send an email that apparently was too large (pics). Now, every time I go into the mail app, the screen is blank, and after a few seconds, returns to my home screen.  I've done the soft & hard reboot many times.  I've also deleted and recreated the email accounts.  I have 2 email accounts on my iPad & I even deleted the one I was not using at the time I tried to send the large email.
Short of a full factory reset, any other suggestions? Greatly appreciated!

Thanks Brian, for your quick response. I've tried the hard re-boot (Power + Home Button) a few times, with no luck fixing the blank screen. I deleted all email accounts, tried the hard reboot, then re-added my aol email account. Interestingly, after this, my mail icon correctly shows that I have 2 new emails (so my iPad is "seeing" my aol email account). But I still get a mail blank screen when I open the iPad mail app, and it still quits after a few seconds.

  • IPad mail app displays blank screen, then crashes

    When I go to my aPad mail app, there is just a blank screen, After a few seconds, the app crashes. I can't delete the app because it appears to be "built in". my mail works fine on MacBook Pro and Nook.

    Hi A436,
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    If you only see a blank screen in Mail, and then the app quits, try removing and re-adding your mail accounts from Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    You can use these steps from Get help with Mail on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Tap the affected email account.
    Tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.
    If the Mail app still quits unexpectedly after this step, you may need to back up your iPad and restore the iOS software:

  • TS3899 iphone 4 mail --blank screen like it's stuck.  i can see the "pad/pencil" in the lower right screen to start a new email, but that's all.  any ideas? thanks!

    on my iPhone 4, I can't get mail.  THere is a blank screen, like it's stuck.  I can see the "pad/pencil" in the lower right corner to start a new message, but that's it.
    Any ideas?

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    Try deleting and re-adding the account to the Phone.

  • Ipod touch Mail Blank Screen- can't access mail

    Hi,
    When I try to open mail on my ipod touch, it opens a blank/black screen (still with the grey bar at the top with the time) but never comes up with the inbox or any menus to interact with (can't access my mail).
    I recently added another imap account. Does it have troubles with too many messages or otherwise- surely it would say that rather than staying on a blank screen.
    Any thoughts?

    Have you tried resetting your ipod by holding the Home & Sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo?

  • Itunes app brings up blank screen then closes

    Has anyone had the problem that when you open up itunes on your phone that you get a blank screen and then it closes?

    Ok.. Try to do an archive and install while retaining your home folder, user settings and files. This will install a fresh new Leopard on your system. Then, delete previous system folder(this was your bad system). It sounds like something to do with the Leopard config files or something.
    But, try an archive and install and then report back.

    Check if the JBAT jumper is set to position 1-2 to safe the data....
    Please read the trouble shooting guide entirely....it might just solve your problem...

  • Mail button takes me to blank screen then returns me to home screen

    After upgrading to 6.1.3, my mail app froze and I cannot access Settings-Mail either

    It might be out of memory. Close all apps you're not using using the toolbar that comes up when you double click on the home button. Press and hold any icon and then tap on the red minus (-) symbol of the apps you're not using.

  • Blank screen on quitting awesome

    I run Arch 32-bit on my old computer running on a P4 processor. Awesome works fine but when I quit it, I don't see anything - it's just blank. But, I'm sure it goes back to the tty from which it was launched as I'm able to run commands (like halt or xinit). So it looks like it's just the display that is not working. Why is this happening and what can I do about it?

    I managed to dig up more info about frame buffer and this is what I found:
    My WM runs at 1280x1024 resolution. So I added vga=0x0324 (1280x1024 32bit) to menu.lst. Now when I quit X, I can see the text but it has been displaced to the right i.e.
    bcabcabcabcabcabc [rms@unity ~]$ abcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabcabca
    I changed it to vga=0x031b. This time, The text is not legible at all and is repeat four times across the screen. I tried couple of other modes but they are, too, illegible.

  • Soundtrack Pro won't load... flashes quick splash screen, then quits.

    I have a question... about how to get Soundtrack Pro working again.
    It worked fine before, but now when I try to load it up, the splash screen (the logo and company info) pops up REAL quick, so fast you can barely see it, and then the program just shuts down abruptly.
    I tried removing preference files and reinstalling, then uninstalling with FCS Remover, then reinstalling. I also tried reinstalling all of Final Cut Studio, but didn't use FCS Remove to uninstall before doing so. Anything short of another complete uninstall/reinstall that I can try to fix this issue?
    My machine: silver MacBook, 10.5.8, 2.4GHz, 2GB RAM. Plenty of hard drive space available. NVIDIA GeForce 9400M.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Mine started doing this recently. I had STP 3.0.1 and FCS 7.0.2 installed on my Mac Pro running 10.6.3 (with all updates installed). I tried deleting the STP preferences and AU and effects caches. Still no go. Tried to restore it from my Time Machine backup but I only started using TM a week ago and that didn't help either.
    Here's the Console log:
    4/20/10 12:10:14 PM Soundtrack Pro[457] Unable to load nib file: MainMenu, exiting
    4/20/10 12:10:14 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[132] ([0x0-0x36036].com.apple.soundtrackpro[457]) Exited with exit code: 1
    I've got another copy of FCS/STP on another machine (MacBook Pro with 10.5.8), and it's running FCS 7.0 and STP 3.0. One odd thing I noticed is that the old STP application file is over 200MB and the new one is only 85MB . So I copied the old (3.0) app over the network and replaced my new one (3.0.1) with the old. Problem solved; it works now, but I hope I don't have serial number problems.
    Apparently the upgrade to 7.0.2/3.0.1 has screwed things up. Good grief. And this is just off the Quicktime Export debacle of a couple weeks ago. What's wrong with Apple? I didn't used to have this many problems.
