Mail - only email headers after upgrading to Mavericks

Upgraded to Mavericks and now on the emails received before the upgrade I can only see the header information - the body of the email isn't there.
I do have a back up - but then I'll lose all my recent emails.
I've searched the forums - but I can't find the user/library/mail folder that some people are suggesting.
Any ideas for a quick / simple fix?
thanks

Try restoring Mail from a Time Machine backup prior to the Mavericks upgrade.
Hold down the Option key and pull down Go to Library.
Enter Time Machine.
Select a date and time.
Select Mail.
Restore.

  • Animated gif in mail are not visible after upgrade to mavericks

    Hi,
    I use a animated gif in my signature in mail. This gif was playing normally (like a animated gif) in mountain lion when I writes a new message. After upgrading to mavericks I can't see the animated gif playing. I just see the first frame. However when I send a mail to my iPad using iOS 7 the animated gif is playing normally.
    Thanx for every answer!

    I'm having this issue as well — I can no longer send animated gifs in Mail with Mavericks (10.9.0). The image retains its full image size and remains a gif format, but does not play, just sits static. This also affects forwarding animated gifs — which play fine in the mail window — they are static in the compose window and are sent static.

  • Mail won't open after upgrading to Mavericks

    I upgraded to mavericks and now mail won't launch or open. It gives an error message: "The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?:
    When I try to reopen it comes back to the same error message. How do I fix this?

  • Mail app stopped working after upgrade to Mavericks

    Dear All,
    I have updated from Mountain Lion (Macbook Pro 3,1, 256SSD) to Mavericks, and mail app stopped working.
    That means - when I click the icon - the app does not work.
    I can see that it downloads mail - as when I click it I receive notifcation that it has downloaded some mail, however I cannot open window. Sometimes I manage to open it, but it is totally unresponsive - I cannot change or click anything in it.
    I have tried repairing disk permissions but without any success.
    Moreover if I run mail app and try to click "new message" from the top bar, the window that appears is somewhat mixed with my wallpaper backround (I can see fragments of it).
    Please help me, as I had there a few gigs of precious mails that I don't want to lose...
    Thank you in advance!
    Olek

    Do a backup.
    Take notes of all account information or take screen shots. You may need to set the accounts up again. Quit Mail.
    Copy the line below.
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Select Go/Go To Folder from the Finder menu bar. Paste the line into the window. You won’t see it.
    Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
    Relaunch 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. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there. 
    Information learned from Linc Davis.
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library Directory in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion & 10.8 Mountain Lion
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after every update. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.

  • Mail displays blank messages after upgrading to mavericks

    In Mail some, but not all emails display with no content at all. This is extremely frustrating and embarrassing when I have to tell my clients I can't read my email!
    Has anyone else got this? Is there a solution?
    Thanks

    I have worked it out a bit.
    I can now read my emails.
    The problems only occurred to emails with rules applied to them, and the particular client I was having issues with was nested within another folder.
    I had done some housekeeping and moved all my filtered clients emails into a parent folder named 'clients' with all subfolders within named after the particular clients.
    I have now dragged the child folders out of the parent folder and can now read my emails. I have no idea why it caused these problems, I have a 'suppliers' parent folder with supplier child folders within and they're all visible.
    Frustrating, but at least I can do some work now…

  • Mail showing attached pictures from previous email after upgrade to Mavericks

    My Apple Mail app is configured to show the email body in the bottom pane when I select an email in the email list in the top pane.
    I receive emails on a scheduled basis from a security camera.  The email contains attached pictures.
    THE BUG: After upgrading to Mavericks, when I am in Mail and am going from one email to the other, the image does not refresh to the image from the newly selected email.  It continues to display the images from the first email that was selected.
    Is this a known issue.  Has anyone else seen this?
    Thanks,
    Al.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks App store only works for me when I switch over other users

    After upgrading to Mavericks, the only options that work for me on App Store are Updates and Purchases, anything else only works if I switch my user either to guest or root? Any idea?  Thx in advance. 

    Read this whole message before doing anything.
    Back up all data.
    Quit the App Store application if it’s running.  Wait at least 10 seconds before continuing.
    Step 1
    Hold down the option key and select
    Go ▹ Library
    from the Finder menu bar. Delete the following items from the Library folder (some may not exist):
    Caches/com.apple.appstore
    Caches/com.apple.storeagent
    Caches/storeagent
    Cookies/com.apple.appstore.cookies
    Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
    Leave the Library folder open. Try the App Store again. If it works now, stop here. Close the Library folder.
    Step 2
    If you still have problems, quit again and wait 10 seconds. Go back to the Finder and move the following items from the open Library folder to the Desktop:
    Cookies/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Preferences/com.apple.appstore.plist
    Test. If the App Store now works, delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, quit again. Put back the files you moved, overwriting the newer ones that may have been created in their place, and post your results.

  • After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    After upgrading to Mavericks on my Mac Pro, mail always requires that I type in my password when launching. How do I change that?

    If your password is accepted, and Mail connects to the account, but you're prompted for the password repeatedly, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Note: these steps don't apply if the server rejects the password. That's a different problem.
    Step 1
    When prompted for the password, check the box marked Remember this password in my keychain.
    Step 2
    Check that the keychain is working.
    Step 3
    Check that the default keychain is unlocked.

  • Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3.

    Apple Mail Search and Spotlight do not work for locating email messages after upgrading to Lion 10.8.3 on my 27" iMac.
    When searching in Apple Mail, sometimes a get a few results (with many missing), and sometimes no results at all.
    I had absolutely no problems before with Snow Loepard.
    I have reindexed mail and my startup drive. I have followed discussions regarding this matter and tried everything - a waste of time.
    This is VERY serious for me - I have many thousands of messages that I archive and need to reference for work and clients, and now I cannot find them.

    I found out that I needed a $100 mini displayport to dual-link dvi adapter to make my $30" cinema display work with my macbook pro
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A/mini-displayport-to-dual-link-dvi-ada pter?fnode=51
    When I found out that solved the problem, I took it back because that was too expensive for a stupid adapter, and it still didn't work perfectly.

  • My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    Hi, I had this same problem. I have a load of work subfolders and was showing the message header but no content. I think it lost the link to the original messages.
    There may be a simpler way but I fixed it by going to the mail folders in finder. I took the following steps:
    Go to user library (hold down the alt key whilst clicking the Go menu in finder to access user library)
    Go to user/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes. You should be able to see your mailboxes and your original messages (ending .emlx) after clicking down the hierachy in each mailbox. For some reason mail added a "-2" onto the end of each mailbox which I think has caused the problem.
    Copy each required mailbox (.mbox) onto desktop. I removed the "-2" at this stage to clean things up.
    In Mail, choose File/Import Mailboxes....
    Import data from: Apple Mail. Click continue, navigate to desktop and choose the relevant .mbox folders. Click Choose.
    It should then import the mail to a new folder called import in mail. You can then rename that folder or move the subfolders out.
    I moved the .mbox folders on my desktop to my documents folder as a backup just in case. I then deleted the problem mailboxes from the finders mailboxes folder.
    Problem solved - for me anyway!!
    Hope this helps.
