Mail icon doesn't work??

I recently downloaded iOS 6.1. My mail no longer loads when I click on the icon. A white screen comes up for a few seconds and it shuts down. I have tried everything. I have tried to delete my mail accounts but they won't delete. They just come back. I have also tried to reset and restart my iPad. Nothing will work. I need to use my mail accounts. It's so frustrating. I don't know what else I can try. I am using an iPad 2.

Did you close tha mail app in the recents tray? If you quit mail completely and if you have rebooted the iPad with no success, this might be worth a try.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
It takes some time to get everything set up again, your privacy settings, brightness and wallpaper, Safari settings, turning Siri on again, reenter your network password, etc. .... But you can do much of that as you go along.

Safari Toolbar mail icon doesn't work

I added the mail icon to my safari toolbar from the customization menu but I don't know how to connect it to mail. Ideally it would just open my gmail and school mail websites within safari. Anyone know how to make this happen?

Hello b:
Are you using the Apple Mail application? I believe the icon is a pointer to that application.

This morning I cannot open the mail Icon. It worked last night. What happened?

This morning I cannot open the mail Icon. It worked last night.

I'd first recommend restarting your computer before taking the steps below.
Click the Finder icon on the left side of the Dock to open a new Finder window (if no new window appears, select New Finder Window from Finder's File menu).
Select Applications from the left sidebar.
Locate Mail inside of Applications and double-click the icon to launch Mail.
If this doesn't work, could you provide some more information as to how you're opening the application and what you're seeing?

Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML

My Mail server doesn't work after upgrading from SL to ML
Mail client connects with the Mail Server wich seems to run but then they can't receive any email...
the problem seems to be related with dovecot ... in my smtp log i get this:
relay=dovecot, delay=324, delays=324/0.02/0/0.01, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: pipe: fatal: pipe_command: execvp /usr/libexec/dovecot/deliver: Permission denied
I have to say that in the usr/libexec there wasn't the dovecot directory so I just tried to create one but with no luck
Any Ideas?

Mail app doesn't work

Mail app doesn't work after Yosemite OSX upgrade. At first it didn't check email and now it doesn't boot. I tried many times, but nothing happens

Ok after nearly going crazy I read something about someone having a problem with a program related to fonts not being installed. I started up font book and now my problem is miraculously resolved... This is good and bad. I don't know why having font book running would resolve my problem or know what font is causing the programs not to work. As far as I know I didn't disable any system fonts. And the problem doesn't happen when font book is running, which is confusing me.

Hi Gwing17,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that all of your iPhone sounds are working as expected except for the Sent Mail sound. I understand that you have already changed the Sent Mail sound as well as reset your iPhone and the issue persists. In this situation, to isolate the issue, I would first recommend backing up your iPhone to either iTunes or iCloud.
Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
After you have backed up, I would recommend restoring your iPhone and setting it up as new to test the Sent Mail sound. If the sound works as expected, try restoring from your backup and test the sound again. Please let me know if the issue returns or if the sound still does not work when you set up your iPhone as a new device.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
Cheers,
Joe

My mail icon is not working after update ios 6.1.1 ????

dear sir please give me soluction.
my mail icon is not working after update of ios 6.1.1

You can only purchase apps and other media for the county's sore in which yu are located. You account, included payment method, also must be associated with that country.
Sam applies for updating apps. Note that not all apps are available in all country so y will not be able to update an app if you are in another country and that app is not available in that country or your account is not associated with that country.
You can change the country and other things by:

Try a reset: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. (No data loss)

Dragging an images from Safari to the mail Icon doesn't embed image

Hi all - I was wondering if there was a way to change the following default functionality:
If I drag an image to the Mail icon in the dock, it will open an email with the address of the image as text.
What i want is for the image to be embedded in the email.
I can go to Mail, open a new mail, then go back to safari and drag the image and it works fine, but I'd just rather have that happen when I drag the image to the Mail icon.
Any suggestions?

Thank you for the reply but this doesn't seem to work for me...

Get e-mail button doesn't work

The only way I can get Thunderbird 24.5.0 to get this messages is to hit the drop down arrow and click on each of the two accounts separately. Even the get all new messages doesn't work. I've tried to delete the inbox & inbox.mfg (?) folders for each account and the local folder, resetting Thunderbird, tried to remove icons during customizing tool bar, then restoring defaults without any luck. I don't think something is set up correctly. What I am trying to get Thunderbird to do is to check both accounts with the get mail button and put all the massages in the same inbox. It worked that way on the version I had on XP and I have moved to WIn 7 can't figure this out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

''check both accounts with the get mail button''
Tools (Alt-T) - Account Settings - Server Settings - Advanced
Check 'Include this server when getting new mail.'

Secondary e-mail account doesn't work

I noticed today that my Secondary e-mail account wasn't working. My mobile Me account works. The other account has lost its draft, send, trash icons. When you try to check mail on that account the phone reverts to the home screen. I have synced, restored, deleted the secondary account and created a new one. The messages can be received/sent but not viewed. That account on my mac works great. During the restore process it notifies me that there is a file missing but doesn't say which one.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks

Create your MobileMe account on your iPhone and turn Contacts and Calendars on for over the air syncing with your MobileMe account settings on your iPhone. If you have a MobileMe account and are syncing contacts and calendar events over the air with your MM account on your iPhone, you don't need to sync contacts and calendar events direct with the Address Book and iCal on your Mac via the iTunes sync process.
Try syncing iTunes content including the music, video, podcasts, and 3rd party apps you want transferred/installed on your iPhone, but don't select anything under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences.
If no problems with this, try selecting the single iPhoto album you want transferred to your iPhone under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences. If the same error message is provided, this narrows it down to transferring photos only which means there is a problem with what is called the iPod Photo Cache, which can be deleted from iPhoto.

Drop & Drop file onto Mail icon doesn't create new message

New to Snow-leopard and what used to work in Leopard... dragging a file from the finder onto the Mail icon would open a new message with that file as the attachment... doesn't seem to work in SL. Mail will come to the front, but, beyond that, nothing happens.
Mail 4.2
OS X 10.6.2
Any ideas?

Hi,
Works properly here, but remember seeing other reports. I will keep looking for earlier topics and resolution, if any, for those reporting.
Meanwhile, create a New User Account on your Mac, and as that New User open Mail and set up one email account as a test. If a POP account, set it to leave messages in the server after download.
See the following if not familiar with adding a new user account:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8235.html
This will test the app itself vs your current User Account.
