Mail on my iPad 2 is no longer working after latest update. If I delete the account and reinstate it will I lose everything that was there before?

Mail on my iPad 2 has stopped working since the latest update. The symbol is on the screen in its' usual place but it either opens briefly, just showing the blank framework for Mail before suddenly quitting, or all the App symbols disappear completelly from the screen. I'm not confident that i know what to do! If I delete the account and reinstate it will I lose everything that was there before? Looking at an earlier question along the same lines it doesn't appear that that would make a difference. If I reset the whole thing will I lose all my documents, photos etc.?
i'd be extremely grateful for some clear guidance!

(A) Try reset iPad
Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home button down together until you see the Apple Logo.
Note: Data will not be affected.
(B) Close all apps in the multi-task window
1.Double-click the Home button.
2. Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
3. Preview will fly off the screen.

  • Syncing with iPad mini does no longer work since latest update of iTunes

    Syncing with iPad mini does no longer work since latest update of iTunes and iPad mini

    Hi grecokev,
    Thank you for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    You mention that your iPod nano is no longer recognized by iTunes after an update. Reinstalling iTunes is a good troubleshooting step, and if the device still doesn't appear in iTunes, try the following steps next:
    Turn off your computer and your iOS device or iPod, then turn them on again.
    Check to make sure that you've installed all required updates for your computer.
    Verify that the 30-pin to USB cable or Lightning Connector to USB cable is free of debris and not damaged. If another cable is available, test with that cable instead.
    USB cables that are bundled with third-party products or accessories might work only to charge those products and might not transmit data. Also, if you're using a third-party case or extended battery pack, try removing the case and connecting the Apple-supplied USB cable directly to your device.
    You can find these steps in this troubleshooting article:
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support
    If the steps above don't solve it, see the section of the article called "Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed" for some additional steps to try on your PC.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Special Keys(Ctrl-opt-esc) in Screen Share no longer working after latest update

    I typically remote into a machine back home through icloud once or twice a week to help my wife kill a program that can get stuck.  I used to be able to send command+opt+esc to get to the remote computers force quit applications window.  But now when I do that after the latest update, it only does it on my computer and no longer send the command to the remote screen share session.
    Anyone else experience this or have a fix?

  • Bluetooth headsets no longer working after latest update

    Has anyone else run into this, &/or resolved it?
    our btooth headsets were working (barely) w our Mbook Pros. the latest s/w update completely killed it completely.
    the system recognizes the devices, but no audio will work. I've tried everything I've found on it:
    - deleted and repaired the headsets
    - cleared the PRAM
    - deleted the btooth audio profiles
    - hardset the headset use for the various apps
    any idea if Apple is aware that this problem exists, or any ideas as to how to pass it on?
    For the first time in a year, I'm missing my Dell laptop, and may have to consider going back to the darkside if this continues. Our side business relies on Skype, and using wired headsets won't cut it for long.....
    I am really surprised that the btooth support in OS X is so poor -- really didn't expect this to be a problem.

  • Bluetooth headset no longer work after latest update

    I use a Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset for Skype calling and Ventrillo on my Macbook Pro. Since after the latest update, it no longer works. Both input and output doesn't work and the applications hang for about 30 seconds. I've tried re-pairing the device to no avail. Both applications work if I switch them to the built-in microphone.
    I also tried doing the same thing with a Plantronics 245 and I get the same issue.
    Both headset work with my phone.

    FIXED!!!!
    Steps to UNF*ing your Mac.
    1) Install an app called Pacifist
    2) Download the individual installer for the Magic Touch Update here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1066 DO NOT INSTALL THIS
    3) Load your OSX Install DVD
    4) Open the MagicTrackpadMultiTouchUpd1.0.dmg in Pacifist
    5) Open your OSX Installer DVD in Pacifist
    6) Look at the MagicTrackpadMultiTouchUpd1.0.dmg package in Pacifist to see exactly what it installed and where.
    7) Find these SAME EXACT FILES on the OSX Installer and reinstall them as root (e.g. using your admin password when asked)
    8) Repair permissions (Do NOT skip this)
    9) Reboot
    10) MOST IMPORTANT: Never install the update again!!
    Your bluetooth headset will work in skype after this. You will replace EVERY FILE THE MagicTrackpadMultiTouchUpd1.0.dmg package installed with one from the DVD. If you can not find it, the search bar in Pacifist works wonders.
    You will get an error if you try to reinstall admin.framework about not having permission to install. This will be the ONLY file you will not reinstall.
    Yes, you have more or less, in a very complicated fashion uninstalled the update (software update shows the Magic Touch update as needed afterwards).
    Find me on Skype, where I will be able to walk you through it from my Plantronics Voyager Pro bluetooth headset at james.t.bolin
    In case you developers want to know, I'll give you my play by play. After the installation of the update, it borked the bluetooth causing Skype to freeze. Reinstalling all the original kexts from the installer disk fixed the skype freezing issue, but there was still no audio. In fact, after reinstalling everything in the System>Library folder still left me with no audio, but it would not freeze or cause kernel panics at this point.
    This is where I got the magic. I started replacing stuff in the usr directory. Upon replacing the usr>libexec>cups>backend>bluetooth; usr>libexec>hidd; usr>sbin>blued; and the blue.8 and hidd.8 files, I got audio back and the stars aligned in perfect harmony. I suspect apple needs to retool the kexts and rewrite the root level profiles.

  • Airport no longer working after latest updates

    After my latest software updates, the Airport on my 13" Macbook is no longer working.
    I can connect to networks and can get full signal from the wireless router in my home, yet none of my browsers can actually connect to the internet.
    I've tried multiple wireless connections and none function properly. Suggestions?
    I'm currently connected directly to my NETGEAR router via ethernet

    Experiencing similar issue.
    Wired works forever without any issue. Wireless (airport) works for a while (random 2-60 minutes, could be related to data volume) then gets stuck. At that point getting back to wire (without reseting the airport AP) solves it. Also, cycling the airport client (disable/enable) gets it to work for a few minutes... until it gets stuck again. Other devices (iPhone, iPod touch) connected to the same airport AP do get access while the macbook is stuck.
    Thought this could be 11n related since the macbook is the only device running 11n. However, while wireless http/web access is stuck on the macbook one can still perform ftp connections (bit no file transfer as such), pings and/or access the time machine configuration (some of this seems to be randomly working) from that macbook. Not sure whether 11n handles short bursts and large bursts differently?
    Finally, the behaviour is the same whether using Safari or Firefox and relaunching eitehr app does not solve it.
    Clueless for now.

  • TS3899 I upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 6 and now I can't get my work e-mail anymore.  I've tried deleting the account and re-adding, per other forum suggestions, and still no luck.  Also, there is no longer an "Advanced" section to enter information.

    Help!  I upgraded my iphone 4 to ios 6 and now one of my two emai accounts - my work account - no longer receives/sends emails.  I checked my e-mail settings and they were correct.  I then deleted the account and tried to re-add it, per discussions in other forums, and it won't verify the account.  In addi tion, there was previously an Advanced section in the e-mail account setting, and now there isn't - don't know if that is part of the probem and the phone needs additional information that it's not asking for anymore . . . I'm beyond frustated.  Many hours of lost productivity.  Any suggestions?  Can I got back to the previous version?  I was thinking of buying new phone in next few months, but if this is resolved I'm leaving Apple.

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • HT4859 I have an iPhone 5 and have just set up the iCloud for it. I also have an iPad with different content and I also want to connect it to iCloud. Will I lose everything that's on my iPad or iPhone or do they sync together without losing anything?

    The problem is that all services are bundled with your Apple ID ([email protected]):
    Your iCloud account (Mail, Contacts, Calendars, Reminders, Notes, Backups, etc.),
    also iTunes & App Store purchases (Music, Movies, TV Shows, etc.),
    and the iTunes Match services.
    (I guess that all your devices - yours and your wife's are connected to one iTunes library, right?)
    If you want that your wife gets her own iCloud account for Mail, Contacts, Calendars, etc. but gets also access to your media then you have two set up two things on her device:
    iCloud (Settings > iCloud) with her account (e.g. [email protected])
    and
    iTunes & App Stores (Settings > iTunes & App Stores) with your account (e.g. [email protected]).
    In this case she gets access to your library and could use the same iTunes Match account.

    Do you use MobileMe and an iPhone? If yes, do this in the following order:
    Mac:
    (1) back up the applications giving you problems
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Turn OFF the applications that are causing problems
    (4) When you turn off on of the applicatios, a red sign "stop syncing" will appear. Press it. A msg will appear "turning off xxx"
    (5) Get out of settings
    (6) Don't do anything for about 20 mins. Don't touch your iPhone or your Mac. (syncing needs time to settle down)
    After 20 minutes...
    Mac:
    (1) Open each application that is giving you problems. Fix errors. Back up.
    (2) Do this for each application
    iPhone
    (1) Open settings, then open "mail, contacts, calendars"
    (2) Open .Mac account
    (3) Slide switch to ON for each app you turned off; there won't be a msg
    (4) Get out of settings
    (5) Via MobileMe, syncing will start again.
    Wait about 20 minutes, again. You should see all in order after that. At least, that was my experience.
