Mail icon bounces, but never launches. HELP!

Dear People Who Know Macs Better Than Me,
Please help! Yesterday I was trying to back up my Mail (Home/Library/Mail), and when I saw that it was as big as it was, I tried compressing/archiving the Mail folder using the (Create archive of "Mail") when you right-click on any item.
BIG mistake. As I was doing that, my computer froze mid-process and I had to force quit out of Finder. I ended up having to force-restart the computer from holding down the power key (since other force-restart options don't work anymore). I should have never tried to archive by creating an archive, I should have just copied the files directly over to another hard drive, which I did later. My computer froze yet again... choked on a file called "173447.emix or .emlx", did I want to continue copying? I hit yes and then the copy/task window showed no further progress. It would not quit process thereafter, not even if I hit that little X up top, and was instead frozen. I had to force quit out of Finder yet again. Totally digressing, but you know how it is. I'm trying to document everything for you here.
Fortunately I have a backup, but it doesn't have everything from the last two weeks. I did do a manual backup where I dragged all folders inside Mail over from one drive to another.
So, I've been unable to launch Mail. The icon does its perfunctory dance in the dock, the Mail menu appears at the top of the screen, but nothing else appears, and then it goes dormant and never launches. I have watched Activity Monitor during this process and indeed Mail does launch and appears on Activity Monitor, but then it subsequently and almost immediately quits.
What file do you think I damaged? Was it the Mail app itself? Or do you think it was a preference file? Please help! Thanks in advance!

Dear Golden Shoes, thank you very much for that simple fix! After restarting, Finder froze so I restarted with all external hard drives removed and Mail launched this time. Of course none of my passwords or other account settings were saved, but I can easily figure it out. THANK YOU!

  • Mail icon Bounces but doesn't open

    when I try to open my mail the mail icon bounces once in the dock and then nothing happens. I have auto update so i'm running the latest software. I can retrieve my mail from a website but I can't see my contacts or anything. No other application seems to be affected.
    Help please!

    HI Sonia,
    Have you tried repairing permissions?
    That is always the first thing I do when something doesn't behave as expected.
    Choose HD> applications>Utilities>disk utility. Open it and click on your hard drive icon, then choose repair permissions from the bottom of the panel. I don't usually bother to verify first but someone might disagree with me
    Let it run.
    I usually go off and have a coffee break or something.
    I also take a shot of the finished permissions so that if I have to give anyone information for troubleshooting I have a report of it.
    a selective screen shot can be taken by using shift+command[apple key}+4 [all at the same time]
    this puts a "pneg picture" on your desktop. I change the name to todays date, keep the pneg extension and file them in a suitably named folder for a month, just to be sure.
    Sorry if you knew how to do it. but someone who doesn't might read the post and find it useful.
    Hope this helps
    If not post back and maybe someone will have another answer.
    Warmest wishes and welcome to "discussions" a great community .

  • My Photoshop Icon Bounces but never opens...??

    Hi there,
    Need a bit of help. I bought a new MacBook Pro and they transfered all my programs from my old Macbook onto my new one, including my Adobe CS3 package. Now when i go to open it the PS icon on the toolbar is there and it bounces as if it were going to open but then never does?
    I no longer have my installation discs as they got misplaced during a transAtlantic move but i do have my Photoshop serial number? What can i do to get my photoshop CS3 back?
    Thanks for your time and help
    Jess

    Does this help?

    Other than that are Photoshop and OS fully updated and have you performed the usual trouble-shooting routines (trashing prefs by keeping command-alt-shift pressed while starting Photoshop, 3rd party plug-ins deactivation, system maintenance, font validation, etc.)?

  • Apps in dock bouncing but not launching.

    I have second account on my PowerBook. And this problem is only on this second limited account.
    It was working five until few weeks ago. The problem is "Apps in dock are bouncing but not launching".
    Apps like Mail, Safari, Firefox, iPhoto, iTunes, Skype, QuickTime, Vlc, Address Book, iCall and even Google Notifier on the top Bar. I can click on them again again but nothing. Only way to open them is to Log Out and Log in again. But in this case not all of them are working yet. I have tried with Apple Apps to delete in Library/Preferences - com.apple. .... but it doesn't work.
    I know the easiest way to solve it would be just create this second account again but I wanna find out what's going on here.

    "com.apple.launchservices.plist" Could not find it there (in Preferences on second account) I found it only in Preferences on my *Main account*. So tried to copy it on to my second account but it did not help.
    I know it is maybe not at least 10% free al the time but I had no problem with it until now.
    Another thing is I deleted "com.apple.launchservices.plist" on my Main account Restarted Computer and it did not created new "com.apple.launchservices.plist" and everything works ok on my Main Account. Very confusing.
    Only common thing both accounts now have is "com.apple.LaunchServices.QuarantineEvents". Tried to delete it and it Created it self again as I expected.
    Even non Apple App *"Google Notifier"* is not launching in top bar.

    The first thing you should do is Repair Permissions. Then do these steps in order:
    1. Quit all running applications.
    2. Go to Home/Library/Caches/Safari and delete all the sub-folders within that one.
    3. Go to Home/Library/Safari and delete any of these files you have there:
    • Downloads.plist
    • Form Values
    • History.plist
    • LastSession.plist
    • LSMMap2 and/or LSMMap3
    • WebpageIcons.db
    remove the Bookmarks.plist file to your Desktop.
    4. In System Preferences > Network, change your DNS Servers entries for both your wireless and wired Internet settings to these two:
    208.67.222.222
    208.67.220.220
    click Apply Now, quit System Preferences and restart Safari to see if things improve. If so, quit Safari and put the Bookmarks.plist file back in Home/Library/Safari and restart Safari again. If the problem manifests again this time, that file is the problem.

  • Can't open my mail icon, as soon it launches it shuts down immediately

    Can't open my mail icon, as soon it launches it shuts down immediately

    Have you tried closing the Mail app completely and then re-opening it ? From the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : 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.

  • Mail icon bounces out of the blue

    Hi there.
    I've noiticed the Mail icon bounces out of the blue in the dock.
    I'm working with other programs or browsign the internet and Mail is calling for attention.
    I open the progam, it opens properly, I close it after, and it starts to bounce again, driving me crazy.
    Any ideas how to make it stop?
    Thanks!

    Reported fixes:
    "I ended up repairing Permissions and resetting PRAM and that stopped the problem somehow"
    "I would remove the icon from the Dock and drag the application back to the Dock to create a new one. That normally corrects it."
    Other options:
    Do a Safe boot then restart normally.
    *  shutdown
    *  start the Mac and *wait* for the startup chime to sound
    *  after the sound, press and hold down the shift key
    *  keep holding and *wait* until the grey  Apple logo appears
    *  now release the shift key and just wait (it could take a few minutes)
    *  eventually the login screen appears with the words SAFE BOOT

  • Mail won't open either from the dock or from the applications folder. Icon bounces but program won't open

    Mail worked fine this morning, then, when I went to open the program this afternoon, the icon bounced in the dock but would not boot either when I tried to open it from the dock or from the applications folder.

    The nib file is the visual part of the user interface, so it has either got damaged or gone missing, which (unless you have been moving things around) is a little bit worrying.
    I would suggest
    make sure that you have a current backup
    run disk utility to check your disk
    if your disk is ok,
    put in your installation disk and do an optional installation of Mail
    download and run the latest combo upgrade

  • Safari icon bounces but doesn't open

    Almost exactly a year ago, the Safari icon on my doc stopped opening. It bounces once or twice but I can't access Safari at all. The same has happened to the Mac Mail icon and a few others that were on the dock. I recall seeing something that looked like a little expoding cloud and hearing a "bang" and the app either disappeared from the dock completely or it just bounces but won't open. It happens so quickly that sometimes I don't know what I've lost. (Nothing appears in the trash, btw.)I checked the logs and here are just the first several lines of what is a very lengthy list of things in the log.
    I hope someone might be able to decipher what went wrong and how to fix it.

  • Mail icon bounce

    Have a preference set to bounce the mail icon, but icon continues to bounce after mail is read. I need to close the mail application and reopen to stop the bounce. I thought it was supposed to stop after the message/s were read.

    Hi Appleal,
    I thought it was supposed to stop after the message/s were read.
    It could be a corrupted Dock preference, but before to trash the preferences file do the following first ...
    NO, normally the bouncing stops after the application is launched.
    Go to the Apple Logo in the menu bar an select Dock>Dock Preferences ... Now deselect the bouncing by opening application(s).
    Now open any application from the Dock an quit it again after launching.
    Now do the same again to go to the Dock>Dock Preferences an select AGAIN bouncing by opening application(s).
    TEST again when you launch a application from the DOCKK ...
    Post bak with the results ...

  • Icon bounces, but that's it

    Recently, out of nowhere, my iChat just won't start up at all. The icon bounces in the dock and never does anything, so I have to force quit.
    I did the whole Pacifist thing, but that didn't help at all. Now I still have the same problem, but the icon is the older version with the little yellow AIM guy.
    I'm going to try pulling iChat off my work computer tomorrow, putting it on my iPod, and dragging it into my applications folder at home to see if that works (it worked with Photobooth pulled from my sister's iMac).
    If that doesn't work, I'm out of ideas.

    If you have "installed" iChat 2 on Tiger it will not work.
    You need Tiger Install Disks and this FAQ.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121719
    Using Pacifist the support folder are in separate places now, via the Hard Way.
    The Combo is still needed.

  • Icons bouncing but applications won't start.  Files becoming corrupted

    Started yesterday when I tried to start firefox. The icon bounced in the dock but firefox would not start. So I reinstalled firefox, and that seemed to fix it. Today Indesign started doing it. Also, a bunch of my files have become corrupted. (I noticed today when I started backing up everything new.)
    I tried to boot from the CD to repair the disk permissions but when I try to verify them I get the BSOD. Is this because I am running Boot Camp? Please note -- I have not gone online while in windows. Only use to play episode 1.
    This doesn't look good. I just installed eyeTV, and have recorded a few programs for my ipod. I realize that recording digital tv is a ton of use on my hard drive. But I haven't let it record more than 2 gigs at a time.
    Does anyone else have a similar problem with eyeTV? or any suggestions??

    Have you moved anything around in your file library? The Mac OS likes things in one place.
    You may want to repair permissions if you have not yet done so.

  • Captivate icon bounces but won't open.

  • Battery drain after downloading free apps BUT never launched them

    I have searched all 7 pages of iPhone 3G section, any topic with "battery" in subject line, did not find a match, so posting new question.
    I'm a new 3G owner; use wifi and bluetooth, fetch mail manually (no push); battery life easily holds 2-3 days with my typical usage; had never downloaded an app; last night decided to browse the free app store; download several stupid games and a few apps (google earth, urban spoon, shazaam, weather channel). BUT have not launched ANY of them...just the new icons sitting on my phone. However, today, after fully charging last night, battery dropeed to 20% by about noon. ???
    Again, haven't changed a setting nor have I launched any of the apps I downloaded (was planning to play this weekend). Any ideas? Or should I just unistall all of them and download one at a time and watch it going forward?
    Thanks for any advice.

    I performed a reset (press and hold sleep/wake and home buttons together); I also noted that location services had turned on, so I turned that off (but left wifi and bluetooth ON as I normally do). Seems to have helped battery life dramatically.
    It seems obvioius that certain apps I downloaded (google earth, the weather channel, etc.) all use location settings. Therefore the only thing I can reason through is that upon downloading, when the apps were being installed, one or more of them began to access location services or the internet, even though I did not open the app(s) specifically.
    So, from my experience, beware that apps may very well install in a state that best suits their purpose and design; that while you may not open them directly, they may automatically be accessing the internet or location services.
    Another suggestion would be to only load one new app at a time. That way, you can observe and isolate any change or impact on your phone, battery, performace, etc.; then easily uninstall if needed.
