Mail messages won't load in Mail 4.5

After a seeming successful installation of Snow Leopard, my Mac Mail also seemed to update properly (4.5). All my incoming items are listed. However, after double clicking on any e-mail in the inbox, a window opens up with the title of the e-mail, but then I get a spinning-spoke "Loading." No content opens and the "Mail" won't close without a Force Quit. Same result with a single click and "Open" from the Mail file menu. E-mail messages succesfully sent.

Some things to check:
Is the drive still plugged in?
Is the drive visible in Finder?
Is the drive visible in Disk Utility?
Is Time Machine still turned on (System Preferences > Time Machine)?
Is the Buffalo drive still selected as the Time Machine destination?
Assuming all those answer are "yes," look for Time Machine errors in the system log. (Search for "backupd" in the system log using the Console app in /Applications/Utilities; you may may need to log on as an administrator to see those entries.)

  • Some ,mail messages won't load after migrating to Lion

    I've migrated Mail from Snow Leopard to Lion on a new computer but from time to time some messages won't load. It's a real pain because I only dicover it when I go to read a message I want to read. Anyone have any ideas?

    Mail, the application, should not cannot contain any message data assets. The Mail application must sit in the Applications folder, and be usable to every User Account on the Mac, and not just yours (understand you might be the only user, but making a point).
    Mail, the folder of data for just your emails, should properly be at Home/Library/Mail.
    Let me ask again -- in the Applications folder is there an Icon for Mail, and is it the Icon of a postage stamp, or is it perhaps the Icon of a folder?
    However, let me note, that now that I have booted back into Snow Leopard, and used Get Info on the Mail Icon in the Applications folder, it is reported to be 77.5 MB! Looking at it from other boot volume (Leopard) does not see all the elements of its "package" apparently. My apologies.
    Now it is time for a different test -- Create a New User Account, and as that New User launch Mail and try setting up one new email account - if POP select to leave messages on the server. 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
    The reason for doing this is to test the Mail app itself, and not to permanently switch to a new user account. Tell me if the behavior continues in that New User Account with Mail?

  • Text messages won't load, visual voice mail barely works, e-mail won't update

    I've had the HTC Rhyme for about two weeks. Last week I noticed my text messages were not loading. I I turned the phone off a few times. Still no text messages loading. I spoke with Verizon CS and they tried several solutions that did not work. I finally reset my phone and my text messages started loading again...for a couple of days. Exactly one week later my text messages are not loading again. I am not gonna reset my phone again. In addition to no text messages not loading, my visual voicemail works sometimes ( voicemails show up hours later). My aol email does not update. When I mentioned this to the Verizon CS they said "instead of using the phone's email setup, I should download the aol app from the Google Play Store. So, I downloaded the aol mail app last week. Since I had to reset my phone I had to download the aol mail app again. But, now I can't find the aol mail app in the Google Play Store. I am VERY dissatisfied with this phone.

        Sstelliott, I sorry to hear of the issue you are having with your phone and I’m here to help!
    Are you able to send text and picture messages? How do you know when you are not receiving a message? Do you get an error message? Are you able to access the Internet on your phone? Are you using a third party message app?
    Run the phone in safe mode http://bit.ly/tXe7I4 and have someone send you a text to see if you receive. I want to make sure a third party isn’t causing these issues.
    In regards to the visual voice mail, do you notice you have the delayed message when you’re in a certain area? Make sure airplane mode is disabled and that you’re able to access the Internet. Also, make sure call forwarding is disabled by dialing *73 send from your cell. You’ll hear a few beeps and the call will drop. Finally, update the phone by dialing *228 send and selecting option 2 to update. Once the update is complete make sure you power cycle the phone.
    The update should also help with the email issues. You mentioned you are unable to find the app in the Google Plat store. Go to the Play store and on the main page select the Menu key. Go to My Apps. There you should see the email app if you previously downloaded it before you did the hard reset.
    If you are still having issues after the troubleshooting step above, please post back and I’ll be more than happy to further assist you.

  • All the pictures in my messages won't load. Please help

    the attachments are there but they won't load so I can't view them.

    Make sure you have a back-up before doing this. This will erase your phone. To make sure you have a backup,go to Settings, iCloud, Back-up, and under 'back-up now,' you should have a time of your last back-up. Once you confirm you have a back-up, follow this article to restore from an iCloud back-up. I would go back to one (back-up that is) that you know had the pictures showing up (but I think any will do the trick).

  • Email messages won't load

    I've started having a problem view email messages. I open a new message and it displays the subject line and date, but in the message window it says "loading" and the timer spins, but the message never loads. This is true even when there is nothing (no text or graphics) in the message window.
    I've tried resetting (hold down the sleep/wake button and home button for 10 seconds) but that didn't do anything.

    Ummm, because it only seems logical that one would
    want to check for new mail upon opening the app ????
    Sure, there may be times when you only want to 'view'
    previous emails, but why not at the same time check
    for new ones ??
    You can't assume that's "logical" for everyone. I don't think this is just a personal preference issue. I believe by not giving users the option to automatically check email OR NOT when the app is opened is a big mistake.
    There ARE good and valid reasons why one would want to open the mail app on their iPhone without having it automatically check mail (and I have 4 POP accounts set up in my iPhone), whether that personally doesn't matter to you or not, or whether to you it seems "logical" or not.
    I understand that some people may just not care, but for myself and other iPhone owners I've talked to personally (and none of us have our desktop mail apps set to automatically download email when the app is opened, so why should the iPhone be any different?), the lack of having that as an option is a glaring (and frustrating) ommission on Apple's part, and again, I'll be very surprised if it isn't eventually added.
    On a related subject, I also believe there should be a "check all accounts now" button on the main mail account page. When I'm on my mail accounts view in iPhone, it would be great to have that button instead of having to go to each account separately or back to the home screen to hit the mail app button again to check all accounts at once. Again, this is how I can set up my desktop mail app (Eudora), and I believe Apple will eventually add this option as well.

  • New message won't load, security error in error console

    Hello. I'm posting this here in case the cause of the problem is this error item. I can receive all messages in my different folders except for the Send folder. I can sync it if I restart TB, but subsequent checks (clicking Get Mail, Download Now or Repair Folder) do not work. The error console has this item in multiple entries:
    Security Error: Content at imap://van%40mymail%[email protected]:993/fetch%3EUID%3E/Sent%3E3244 may not load or link to mailbox:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/phoenix/Application%20Data/Thunderbird/Profiles/3t4kz4uu.default/Mail/Local%20Folders/Drafts?number=149555299&downloadType=uploadedFile&fileName=twittericon-12px.png&blockId=48d0a45894056572b1570a00285e5f4483ac9eb2e89feffd&zgId=b54d79c69095249d&mode=view.
    Please help. Thanks.

    Error 20, 21, 23, 26, 28, 29, 34, 36, 37, and 40
    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. Use the steps to troubleshoot security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
    Also, check your hosts file to verify that it's not blocking iTunes from communicating with the update server. See the steps under the heading "Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > Mac OS X > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store." If you have software used to perform unauthorized modifications to the iOS device, uninstall this software prior to editing the hosts file to prevent that software from automatically modifying the hosts file again on restart.

  • Symbol next to new message, and message won't load...

    I keep receiving new messages, and when I try to open them, they just show up blank. To fix this I just reset mail. I get this symbol next to the message when this happens though. I'll attach it.

    Yep. I did some more poking around and found that one. Downloaded it and tried to run it and got more errors. Did some more searching and found a fix for the installer on Vista. Ran the fix and tried the ipod software again. It got further, but then hung up again. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Anyone got any answers it'd be much appreciated.

  • Help!  My messages won't load. Screen is blue.  Messages icon has an exclamation point on red background on it.  How do I fix this?  I have restarted and reset 4 times and nothing.

    My niece "spammed" my phone with a bunch of the smiling poop emojis to shut down my messages. 
    She said all I had to do was restart and reset my phone settings and everything would go back to normal.  Well, it didn't.
    I've tried 4 times and it's still not working.  Any ideas?

    This is apparently a very funny prank....

  • My aol account won't load on my macbook air.

    All my mew messages won't load.  I have not had a new message on my macbook air sence the end of april.  I can get them on my Ipad and Iphone.  I need them on my mac.  any suggestions? 

    It would appear that no App icon will load onto your Mac.
    You have to go to iCloud.com - sign in with your account username and password - then you can use Find my iPhone from your MacBook to locate devices such as your phone.
    I tried it this way and it works. A little glitchy, but it works.
    That is the best I can come up with for now.

  • Deleted mail shows up again, need to force quit, won't load new messages.

    I've been having email issues after upgrading to OSX 10.8.2  Everything is fine with first opened and then after a bit starts to act funky.  I will delete messages and they will pop back up, it won't load new emails unless I shut it down and restart.  It also won't close unless I force quit.  This has been happening for a while.  I am using GoDaddy for my email server and the Mac Mail App.  I mainly use one email (the godaddy email) and have many, many "mailboxes/folders" in that account.  I wasn't sure if the amount of "mailboxes/folders" was why I am having the issues, or the best way to go about saving them was.   I'd like to be able to save the actual "mailbox/folders" as they are organized by project, but noticed the archive function doesn't let you put in folders.   I included a screen shot of how my innox is set up in case that helps.    Thank you for help, let me know if there's anything else I should include.

  • My iPhone 5c won't send iMessages, snapchats, email from the Mail app, and it won't load YouTube. Other internet apps like Pandora and Instagram work fine though. Any suggestions on how I can fix this?

    A couple days ago I first noticed the problem when snapchats would appear on my lock screen but when I opened the app I kept getting the error message that the app was not able to refresh my story. Then the next day I was no longer able to send iMessages, they wouldn't go through and would only reach the second party when I sent them as text messages. Also, YouTube won't load and Mail won't send or receive email. I've already tried restarting my phone but there was no change. At first I thought my network connection was the problem but Instagram, Safari, Vine and Pandora all work perfectly. Any suggestions?

    Try this procedure to be sure of a proper restart.
    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)
    I would also try: Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

  • I just upgraded to 10.9.  My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old.  How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

    I just upgraded to 10.9.  My exchange email won't load emails that are older than a few weeks old.  How do I change this setting so I can see all my mail?

    Plett81,
    I'm having the exact same problem. It does not seem to be a settings issue but rather some sort of "problem" with mac mail. My Exchange provider was able to setup my mailbox on a test machine running Mavericks and everything pulled in fine, however I cannot duplicate on my upgraded system.
    I was able to get rebuild my mailbox and get the older messages within my Exchange inbox, however none of my folders and old messages outside of the Inbox are downloading/synching.
    **NOTE** I contacted Apple SUpport and they told me to call my email provider. I called my email provider which did as described above and they don't see a problem. SO as suspected it has something to do with the Mavericks update but I'm not sure Apple is willing to help. I might try contacting them one more time and see.
