Do a backup.
Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail.  Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

  • Mail not working properly since updating

    Hi, since going from Snow Leopard to Mavericks, Mail has become completely useless for me.
    It doesn't pull all the emails from gmail (as it used to - even my @me account doesn't seem to work properly), nor does it update as soon as emails come in. Not sure what to do anymore - I have already delted and re-added accounts, etc but that has not made any difference. Does anyone know what I can do? Thanks!

  • My music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.

    The music app on my iphone 5 is not working properly since I downloaded ios7.
    Sometimes I start to use the music app and then part way though a track it stops. I try to re-start it with no joy. I'm also finding the touch screen is less responsive. Can any help me fix the issue or will I need to take it into the store?

    Removing the SIM has no affect on the power of the phone. It is just the part that facilitates connecting to your carrier. Try holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo on the screen and then release the buttons. The phone should reboot. You may need to hold the buttons together for 15-30 seconds.

  • Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Music/iTunes Match not working properly since update to iOS 7

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Tecra M5: finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard

    My finger print sensor is not working properly since a drink was spilt into the keyboard. When booting up, it automatically "fails" 5 times in a row (without any attempts to swipe a finger), then defaults to password entry to boot the machine's hard drive.
    This is not a problem and all i want to do is disable the finger print sensor, but cannot work out how to do this. I've tried uninstalling the driver, which I seemed to do without any problems, but when rebooting, the sensor still seems active, and still goes through the same process.
    Everything else works fine and this is just a minor niggle, but I'd like to remove the annoyance of it beeping at me 5 times while it does its thing!
    Can anyone tell me how I completely disable it?
    Thank you.

    Have you removed the fingerprint software? If yes check if in device manager is listed some unknown device. Please post the result.
    Maybe you can try to disable this unknown device and it will not be recognized as new hardware every time when you start the notebook.

  • FireFox auto updated to 6.0 this weekend and has not worked properly since. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Made sure all windows componets were up to date and still no joy. Any idea? Windows 7, 64 bit, normal configfuration. It is extreamly slow.

    FireFox auto updated to 6.0 this weekend and has not worked properly since. I have uninstalled and reinstalled. Made sure all windows componets were up to date and still no joy. Any idea? Windows 7, 64 bit, normal configfuration. It is extreamly slow and never finishes loading ANY page.

    I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
    When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
    At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
    I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

  • Mail not working after installing Mavericks

    Mail stoped working after installing Mavericks!

    Check this out. It worked for me and is related to a problem in Accounts.plist...
    The problem was caused by dodgy entries in the accounts.plist file in my User Library folder. It appears that either when I upgraded to Mavericks this file gained hundreds (possibly thousands) of spurious entries, or maybe these entries were in there before but previously the OSX/Mail combination was more tolerant. When I removed these the problem with Mail disappeared. Here’s what I did….
    1> Make the user Library folder visible - in Mavericks this is a lot easier than Lion/Mountain Lion. Simply open up your user directory in Finder, select menu View>Show View Options, and select “Show Library Folder”
    2> Navigate through username>Library>Mail>V2>MailData and select the Accounts.plist file. If this file is multiple megabytes (mine was 40+mb) then this is likely the cause of your problem (once sorted mine ended up at 19k in size!)
    3> To be safe, make a copy of this file (I placed the copy on my desktop).
    4> Using your chosen text editor (I used Text Wrangler but I’m sure TextEdit would work just fine) open the Accounts.plist in the MailData folder (not your backup copy) and take a look. If it’s the same as me you will find hundreds and hundreds of entries for the same mailbox repeated in there. Mine was an old MSN mailbox that I never use any more (I’ve seen in other forums that other Hotmail type accounts also seem to be the culprits in this context). There will likely be two lots of repeated data, one in the XML “DeliveryAccounts” <array> section, and one lot in the “MailAccounts” <array> section.
    5> Delete (keeping in mind the need to select the XML sections correctly from <dict> to </dict> completely) all those extra entries that you found, keeping the mail accounts you do need, in the XML and save the file.
    6> Mail should open up nice and fast again and not eat your system
    7> If this did not work, and causes problems because of over eager deleting in <5> you can replace your broken Accounts.plist file with your backup and try again.

  • Mavericks Mail not working properly with Exchange server after upgrade from Lion

    Mail will no longer maintain a stable connection to my company's Exchange server after upgrading to Mavericks from Lion.  Nothing has been changed on the Exchange server.  It has only partially downloaded the messages that are on the server.  It seems to download current messages when they hit the server.  It has difficulty sending messages.  When I send a message, it gets stuck in the Outbox.  It is constantly losing the connection to the server.  The problem is only occuring with Exchange email.  My iCloud email works properly as well as a POP3 account.

  • Photoshop not working properly in Mavericks 10.9.1

    So i have major issues in Photoshop since upgrading to Mavericks!! Ive seen this all over the internet, but didnt find a real definitive answer to the issue, so im just going to post my own delema in the hopes we can find a solution.
    Since the "upgrade" to mavericks 10.9.1 my photoshop does not work well at all.  Using my CS6 is a headache.  All of my brushes "stick", that is, they fail to react to me if i want to, say, change a brush size, opacity, or even change a tool.   This happens after about 3-4 minutes of masking, or painting in general.  It even sticks when using the polygonal lasso tool. i'll have to click away from my project, say, to the layers palette, or off photoshop altogether, to re-stimulate the tool to react again. Strange.  This slows down my workflow to a crashing hault. I like to use shortcuts to keep my work going and the sticking(as i am calling it)reverts me to go through a series of on-the-fly remedies in order to correct a problem that i never had to begin with, that is, until the lovely Mavericks update came out and was installed.
    Additionally i had the other popular "white wall" photoshop problem, but after downloading a plug in that i saw in a similiar forum, it appears to have fixed that issue. Drop down menus would go blank, or white, creating a white-wall effect where you couldnt read any of the windows.  The only solution was to auto save your work frequently, then shut down Photoshop and start over again.  Thank god for that plug in.  MAvericks you suck.
    any one else having this problem? questions? comments? You godda be out there becaue ive literally read hundreds of issues like this.
    Thank you for your time in reading this.
    I use Photoshop cs6, with a BRAnD NEW imac late 2013 w/ 32G RAM, 256G flash storage. i use a Wacom intuos5 touch tablet, and notice a connection between these key elements:
    Wacom tablet
    Mavericks
    Photoshop

    I am having a different problem, using Mavericks (10.9.3) with Photoshop CS 5.1 and a Wacom Intuos 5 tablet (6.3.8-2).
    I used to have the white menu problem, but lately I'll be working along and then suddenly my brush tool, say, will turn into the hand tool, but still shows the brush in the tools palette. If I click on another tool, no matter what, it continues to show the hand tool. I can't brush with it anymore, so it isn't just a display problem. I'm often in full screen mode, and if I hit the "f" key to return to standard screen mode, the normal grey background switches to blue, hitting it again switches it to black, and if I keep hitting the "f" it will continue to cycle through the colors.
    I've tried quitting Photoshop and relaunching, and would still have the hand icon. In the past, I would restart the cpu; today, I walked away and when I returned (within 10 minutes, probably) it was acting normally again.
    This scenario plays out sometimes once a week, sometimes multiple times. I can't find anything relating to this particular issue doing a google search. Any suggestions?

  • Gmail not working right since Mavericks install, even after 10.9.1 upgrade

    I use Apple mail. Comcast, which is POP, is my internet provider. In order to use IMAP capability I forward my email to my Gmail acct. All worked flawlessly until Mavericks came along. Even after the 10.9.1 upgrade
    Here are my issues:
    (1) draft emails are copied every minute so I get multiple drafts like this:
    Hello
    Hello John
    Hello John, how
    Hello John, how are you?
    (2) If I send myself an email to test how my email is working if I delete the received email from the inbox it deletes itself from the sent box. If I delete the email from the sent box it deletes the email in the inbox.....
    (3) and nothing is being saved on the Gmail server although my settings indicated "never" remove the email.
    Any thoughts? It's drviing me crazy & I'm afraid I'm going to lose valuable emails....
    Thanks in advance....
    Jim

    I decided to test Mavericks Mail with a new Gmail account today to see what the new default settings in Mail works with Gmail. It seems that all the workarounds we used prior to Mavericks are no longer needed. No root folder required. No prefix [Gmail]/ for folders.
    I no longer had to use "Use this folder for Drafts, Sent, Junk, Trash". When I delete a message it actually goes to Trash not to All Mail. Yipeee!
    Be sure to select All Mail folder.

  • Crossfader not working properly since latest software update

    Since downloading the software update (21/01/2012) - the crossfader that I have set to maximum (12 sec) is not working correctly. It seems to play the next track about 40-50 seconds before the last one has finished !!
    I have reset the crossfader to less seconds but it doesn't fade - it just plays the next track over the last but doesn't actually fade !!
    Anyone else having this problem ? If so have you fixed the problem and how ????

    HI and welcome.....
    It does the same thing when I log in under another user account. My mail application also stopped working at the same time.
    Boot from your install disc and follow the instructions here to check the startup disk for errors. See, *Try Disk Utility*
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
    If the startup disk "appears to be ok", then install the v10.6.5 Combo Update
    Then repair permissions. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. If you see any warnings re: SUID messages, they can be safely ignored, information here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448?viewlocale=en_US

  • ICal does not work properly since the last OS update

    Hi everybody,
    I run a Macbook 15 Retina RAM 16Gb with Mac OS 10.8.4. Over the past months (I think after updating the OS), iCal has not been working properly. TO make a long story short, as you can see on the screen cap, it is no longer possible to select the kind of calendar/color etc when right clicking. In order for example to create a "Meetings" event (see left column on the screen cap), what i need to do now, is to find a previous event (i.e. created before iCal stopped to work) then copy and paste it to the time when I want it to happen in the future and then modify it. Not convenient at all.
    This is kind of surreal (that such a bug has not been fixed yet) to given the price of the  Mac and that iCal is part of the core apps of the OS. I looked over the Internet and did not find a solution. But I must have missed things. Hence I would be very very grateful if anyone could help me.
    Thanks a lot.
