Mail locks up when I hit a link within the message

Hi lorifromtn,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
I would suggest following steps below to verify the iOS, close the app, and restart the iPhone:

You may want to try a different email message to see if the issue was with a particular link.
Cheers,

Mail locks up when receiving

Mail locks up when I recieve mail in the mornings. I will be going along check emails fine, then all of a sudden I get the spinning beach ball! Then I have to do a force quit and restart mail. When mail comes back up, I just start where I left off and continue with no problems. It does not matter if there are attachments or not! Is there something that I can do?

Should I rebuild the mail boxes or something like that?
Rebuilding an IMAP mailbox is safe, so you may try that if you wish. I don't think that's the problem, though.
If you receive so much spam, you may want to read the following articles, which are applicable to any mail account (not just .Mac), and any mail client (not just Mail):
Why was I "spammed" at my .Mac Mail address?

backpack12,
Voicemails are a vital part of having a working phone. We do suggest that you look at the contact and then the number to make sure that it is *86. If you are needing to get your voicemails until then, please dial *86.

Have you addressed the message to someone? Is that address capable of receiving text messages?
What happens when you hit enter?

Mail locks up when recieving .eps attachment, anyone help?

When I recieve an email that has an .eps attachment my Mail application locks up. This doesn't happen when I recieve any other attached file formats.
Has anyone else experienced this problem and is there a way around it without reinstalling my software?
Cheers

PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Hello Mick.
Re-installing the Mail.app rarely resolves any problems experienced with the application.
Does this occur during the process of downloading a message with an .eps attachment or does it occur when selecting or opening the message after it has been downloaded?
If the latter, take a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

Mail locks up when trying to make attachment

I'm having a problem with Mail . . Whenever I click the Attachment button to make an attachment, the application locks up . . Any clue?? This has never happened before, and I've had this computer for nearly 3 years now . .

In the few cases where someone has reported this problem, the users that experienced it didn't provide enough information to properly identify it, so we still don't know what the cause really is.
This could be a Launch Services cache or preferences corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services -- the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
Resetting Launch Services
If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, this other article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
The most appropriate utility for doing this probably would be Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
Side effects of System cache cleaning
As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
1. Quit all applications.
2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you wish.
5. Click the Execute button.
6. Restart the computer.
7. If the problem persists, try again checking the Links between documents and applications option in step 3 instead.

Mail app crashes when clicking a link in 6.1.2

Having just upgraded to 6.1.2 yesterday, my mail app is now crashing every time I click on a link in the mail. It is completely unresponsive and requires closing the app using the task manager. Any ideas?

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

Mail locks up when trying to receive new email - help

I'm trying to fix mail.
It's having trouble fetching new mail. When i look at the activity viewer, the progress bar just seems to hang up. If i click on the stop buttons, the progress bar fades out. Then I can't do anything , so I have to force quit mail.
There don't seem to be any issues send mail just recieveing.
The macbook pro is running Leopard 10.5.8
The total file size for the mail folder is 28.2 gb
There are 45,000+ mails and 12,000 unread mails.
One thought i had would be that mail would be full, given the size of the mail folder, and that the issue could be mail is struggling to write incoming emails to it's database.
Does Mail have a maximum total capacity for the number of emails it can hold?
Other than that i'm stuck.
I thought rebuilding the mailboxes could help but it doesn't appear to be doing anything.
Any help would be great thanks!!!!!

I had this problem a month ago on my Mac Pro, running 10.5.8, and close to the same number of messages you have (48,000). But I was able to successfully rebuild my mailboxes...it took a few hours to complete.
You might try moving your preferences file to the desktop or a backup drive: User > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist
Now relaunch Mail and see if it works. Try rebuilding the mailboxes again.

Apple Mail locks up when composing new messages

After 10.9.2, I am unable to send mail from my Apple Mail App! I can read, but creating a new message invokes the spinning rainbow icon of death (which stays around for hours if you let it -- I've verified this).
Anybody have any ideas on how to fix or what the cause is?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

Mac mail locks up when new message is open

Why can't I navigate my mail page while a new compose message is open on Mavericks?

I am having the same trouble. I have 2 VIP's, one of them works fine, the other shows 1 unread message. I have deleted the VIP and re-added and gotten the same results.
This has been true for all versions of Mavericks, including the 2 updates since release. The latest update just the other day did not fix this.

Mail unexpectedly quitting when view certain certain senders messages

Ok...
so i'm send this question in for my boss in our print shop. He made me aware of a mail problem that has been reoccuring this morning.
1. when viewing just a few sender's emails (Alabama Power, Heidelberg, and a sign co. we use) from any box...whether it be the trash or inbox, when moving the preview panel pane up to preview over a long list of emails, as soon as "The movable Bar" hits a certain point between the list and preview it automatically or unexpectedly quits? This also happens on just a certain few websites, that arent realted to the emailers that are causing the crash. WEIRD STUFF *Sory for run-on sentences..lol*
My first thought was the images that are on the actual body of the email, but, when double clicking into a new window instead of using the preview pane it works fine, and even sometimes when it crashes, there arent any images to load on the email
His computers specs
OSX.5.6, White-Macbook, Intel Core Duo processor(2.) and 2 gigs of ram
He has been having to just deal with the issue (because he hasnt voiced the issue till today), and does a work around by fowarding the emails to his iMac running the same OS to be able to get preview these emails
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks
Drew (disregard my specs at bottom)

Ok...ive found out a little bit more about the emails that are causing the crashing!
1. Heildelberg (email) - Its an advertisement email, and dont really know how to label it, but if you click anywhere on the body of the email it re-directs you to their homepage, using the default browser (FIREFOX), but the embedded picture for the graphics is a JPG.
NOTE: THIS REDIRECT DOES NOT CAUSE MAIL TO QUIT, UNLIKE THE NEXT EMAIL DOES??
2. ABCsigns (email) - This sign company we use sends us quotes, so when i go to their emails (which are currently in the trash), as soon as i click on the email preview pane...Mail auto-quits...They are sending us .PDF attachments as our quotes
so it may be a problem with their attachment (ABCsigns) that is causing the crash in Mail, but the Heildeberg emails cause Firefox to crash once re-directed
WEIRD STUFF
Thanks for any help that can be given
Im, gonna change the default browser to Safari, but know from past experiences that it crashes Safari too
Thanks,
Drew

N80 phone locks up when sending SMS

Hi!
When I first got the phone I had no problems, but lately my phone has started locking up when I send a SMS message. It stays "locked" (nothing works and it doesn't react to pushing any bottons) for 2-3min until it sends the SMS. Anyone has a similar problem? It is very annoying since you can't use the phone during these 2-3 minutes
I'd appreciate any help

Hi people,
This may relate to all owners of S60 phones.
If you experience slow OS responses from your phone, it may be that you have too many applications running.
1. Press and hold the menu key, which will bring up the programs list.
2. Highlight the application you want to end and press "C"
I recommend ending all applications that are not being used. Please note, DO NOT end the "Standby" application as that refers to your phone.
Hope this helps.
Also a hard reset solved the problem on mine. Just make sure you have a back up of all the contacts etc and don't rely on the backup phone memory as my N80 doesn't do it. I had to restore using PCSuite.
Oh and you can't end Standby either it doen't do anything.
Is that an N95 in your pocket or are you just pleased to see me?!?

I have an iPad 2 and I am tring to install quickbooks . It is saying I have to upgrade to ios 7.0 when I hit upgrade the message that it can't connect to iTunes comes up please help

Upgrade by connecting via cable to iTunes on your computer. It is best not to use wifi for this update.
If you haven't updated your iTunes on computer, do that first.

Why does my iPhone 4s start locking up or flashing when I'm typing a message?

I have an iPhone 4s with an updated iOS 7. Every since I did the iOS upgrade, my iPhone intermittently "locks up" when I'm typing a message, text or email - by locking up, I mean it won't display the letter I am trying to type or when I try to backspace or enter something different, the screen flashes and will not do anything. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi NancyC,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has some steps you can try if your iPhone 4s periodically stops responding:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

My iPhone 4S locks up when I select a link to go to a website from emails

My iPhone 4S locks up when I select a link to go to a website from emails
It's not all the time but most of the time.
I receive an email from a store, click on the link to their site and mail then freezes. I cannot do anything with mail until I turn the phone off and back on and then it 'might' work,
Does anyone else have this problem or know what can be done?
Every update I hope it will resolve it!

Here was my resolution:
Double tab the home button, all the apps that are running will appear at the bottom. Put your finger on an app to 'shake' it. then hit the red x to remove all running apps. My lock up issue no longer happens.
