Mail is trying to upgrade but its taking days!

Just bought new iMac and the first time I tried to use Mail it wants to upgrade but its taking weeks.
Any suggestions please?

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

    This isn't the fault of firefox. Firefox is a web browser, not your email provider. I'd suggest contacting them (whoever you use, gmail, yahoo, etc.) and asking for help.

    Not Charge
    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    - Try another cable.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • HT4623 i updated my iphone and trying to activate but its not responding

    i updated my iphone and trying to activate but its not responding

    Generally this is a sign that the iPhone had previously been
    hacked/modified/jailbroken and the update relocked it to the
    original wireless carrier. If this is the case, only that wireless
    carrier can unlock your iPhone. You must contact them to see
    if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Where did you acquire this iPhone?
    What wireless carrier did you use before this problem?
    Does the app Cydia appear on your iPhone?
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>About=>Carrier?

    I am trying to format but its sayig "unable to format disc"

    You could try a DFU restore. Like a normal one, but connect to the USB lead then press menu & select for 12 seconds. The device should reset and then the screen should go blank.

  • Lost ipad trying to locate but its disabled is there a way to find it?

    Lost ipad trying to locate but its disabled is there a way to find it?

    In regards to the Find My iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad feature if activated and enabled on your iPad, if you didn't have the Passcode lock feature enabled, someone can turn the Find My iPad feature off.
    If the iPad is not connected to the internet via wi-fi or via the cellular network if a 3G iPad, the feature won't work.
    If the iPad is powered off or has been restored with iTunes as a new iPad, the feature can't work.
    There is no other way to find it electronically.

  • I'm trying to download maps of the ranch but its taking forever for it to complete. says its enhancing map detail. how long is this going to take????? I need these maps up for work.

    I require google maps of the porperty we manage to do my job I purchased the ifarmer app to help organize and keep better track of details in equipment logs and cattle records. I'm trying to download maps of the property and its taking forever. it says it is "enhancing map detail" but its taken so long the ipod falls asleep and I don't know if that makes it take longer. I also can't do anything else on the ipod until it is done downloading. Is the amount of time its taking to download this map normal????

    Great
    Ok so this is what you need to do:
    You need to put it in DFU mode:
    How to enter iPhone DFU mode
    Connect the iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes
    Turn the iPhone off (hold down the power button at the top of the iPhone)
    Hold down the sleep/power button and home button together for exactly 10 seconds, then release the power button
    Continue to hold down the Home button until a message appears in iTunes telling you an iPhone in recover mode has been detected
    When you are in DFU mode your iPhone Screen will be completely black
    Even though the screen is black, that doesn’t mean the device can’t be interfaced with either iTunes or a custom firmware client (for jailbreaking, etc).
    Remember that if you see the restore logo, itunes logo or any message on the iPhone screen, you are not in DFU mode but standard Recovery Mode. Again, DFU mode is signified by having a completely black screen on the device. If anything else is the case, repeat the steps above until you enter into DFU mode successfully.
    Now you can restore - once restore is completed the Exit DFU mode
    Exit DFU mode on iPhone
    The simplest way to exit out of DFU mode is to hold down the Home and sleep/power buttons on the iPhone while connected to iTunes. Then just hit the power button as and this should reboot the device as usual.

  • Trying to upgrade but seems to get "stuck"???

    I'm trying to upgrade to the os4 software, but as the iPhone is being backed up, it seems to get stuck and doesn't indicate that anything is happening. Any advise??

    Yes we did the uninstall today... Still just the same , error message is 0xe8000065 . We then tried to follow directions that apple give, if the uninstall doesn't work, next on list is to 'restart the iPod service' the insert tins are not helpful, I could t find ' manage' in 'my computer' found services somehow which was next steo then couldn't find iPod service properties on vista. , hard work and a waste of time!

  • Trying to Upgrade but Website is Broken in Many Places

    Hi all,
    I have the starter DSL and wanted to bump it up to the next level.
    Unfortunately, I'm unable to do so. I can log into the verizon site, and go to My Account, and I see two links that take me to http://www.verizon.net/renew . That page doesn't even exist. And these links have been here for months.
    Buried in the same page is another link, https://www22.verizon.com/ForyourHome/Registration/Reg/OrLogin.aspx
    This is even more frustrating. It takes me to a "Add of Change Services" page. It asks to log on (dispite already having been logged on in the previous page). So fine, I do it. Click "continue".
    What? Another page where I have to log on? https://www22.verizon.com/myverizon/?goto=https://www22.verizon.com/foryourhome/registration/regprof...
    which reads "Manage your account online, anytime. Sign on or register now."
    What? A second, different sign on in a row? Ok grr. Sign into THIS page. I'm quite good at typing it now.
    Now, I'm back at the VERIZON CENTRAL PAGE! AGHHHHH!
    Now I have to ask... are times that tough? Is the CEO's (bad at internetz) kid the webmaster? This is really bad. It doesn't exactly inspire confidence in committing to a year of service does it? I want to give them money, and can't. Are they going out of business?
    I've tried this around 10 times (no joke) in the past 2-3 months. And it's been messed up every single time. I've tried it on different computers, different operating systems. My Iphone too, and it does the exact same thing. This is either the website is totally broken, or my account is.
    Anyone able to get around this problem? Any response from somebody in power to fix this at Verizon (I tried the online chat thing and got nowhere).
    Thanks for reading.

    Hi frustrated123, I'm sorry for the trouble you've had trying to upgrade your service. It definitely shouldn't be that hard to do so. To get your issue to the correct audience, you should go back to verizon central and click on the link at the bottom of the page that says site feedback and report your findings. In the meantime if you still need help upgrading please send me a personal messg with your acct phone number, your full name and a contact number. I can take a look at the acct and make sure it gets taken care of for you. Again, sorry for any inconvenience.

  • HT6114 My i-Photo icon on my dock now has a big "x" through it since I upgraded to OS X Mavericks. I have tried to upgrade but cannot find where to do so.

    Iphoto has an "x" through it since I upgraded to Mavericks. I need to upgrade but cannot find where to get iphoto app 9.3. I have searched for it at App store.

    Thanks so much! I thought the message was telling me I needed 9.3 but it was saying I have 9.3.
