Mail, spinning wheel
When I send/retrieve mail I no longer get the little wheel spinning telling me it's looking?
So I have no way of knowing if it's doing what I asked for. Have to wait for the end of command beep sound.
It's a small thing but darned annoying.
Bottom left you can get a window for Mail Activity - not the same as what we no longer have but it appears to be the only thing available.

I suddenly can't send or fetch .mac messages through mail - spinning wheel
Hi all, first post!
I can't seem to receive any mail from my .mac (mobileme) account through my mail app. other (pop) accounts seem fine and i can access mobile me online. It's giving me a constant fetching mail spinning wheel, for 4 days now. won't show me any account info when i ctrl click either. any ideas would be gratefully receivedexact same issue here. I live in Adelaide, South Australia. My iPad, iPhone an Mac all won't send but will receive emails happily. Sending via Bigpond works fine so I am certain that the apple server itself is the problem.
Am waiting patiently for Apple to get it up and running again.
Despite this I can send emails for iCloud on the webpage. -
Can't Send 2.5 MB video H.264 via Mail - spinning wheel of death
I am trying to send a small video to some friends. It is 2.5 MB in H.264 format and AAC audio.
Every time I try to attach the video (.mov format) the MAIL app stalls and I have to force quit.
What can be causing this?
I also cannot import videos into my iPhoto from my iPhone. But there is nothing to be done about this
Help would be very much appreciated...
-TimHere are the console lines for me choosing to:
CLICK "COMPOSE NEW EMAIL" button (opens new email window)
DRAGGING SAID 2.5MB .MOV FILE TO NEW EMAIL WINDOW to attach it. (SPINNING WHEEL STARTS)
After seeing the same console line a few times, FORCE QUITTING Mail and CHOOSING TO REPORT to Apple
I've redacted my name with XXXXXXXXX's
Thank you in advance if you can see anything here.

I have given my wife my relatively new MacBook Pro with Leopard installed. I moved her mail over to this Mac....and moved her mail folder over. It works very well....EXCEPT....right next to her mailbox, it lists the number of unread messages....and when checking mail...the spinning small wheel which denotes mail is being checked...is no longer present...
What setting do I need to change?I have a similar problem with spinning wheels. I have three accounts and when checking for new mail the wheels spin erratically, sometimes all three or any combination, or no spin at all. Also when a new mail is received the small oval surrounding the number is often only half shaded. I've tried expanding the area bar but no change. It's just a bit annoying really as mail works fine, but I bought a Macbook at the same time, same OS 10.5.2, and that is fine. Any suggestions?

I have a spinning wheel in Mail - stuck on trying to load a new message. I've force quit both Mail and my whole computer, but when I open mail again, it brings up the same new message - and the side bar curser is stuck in Drafts. What else can I try to cancel
Can you log on to the email account via webmail in a web browser, view the email and delete it from there if necessary.

Spinning Wheel, Mail Unexpectedly Quits
I am using Mail 1.3.11 and have been for years. Just in the last week, Mail will unexpectedly quit and ask me if I want to send bug report. I can usually open one mail, then get spinning colorwheel for over a minute then get the App Mail has quit window. This happens everytime I open Mail now. I can't really check or delete any mails. I read advice on holding down shift and checking junk filter. Did all that and still quits on me. I called tech support for my internet provider and they claim it is not on their end. The spinning wheel seems to start when mail is trying to contact smtp.mail.west.cox server.
I am stumped. Is there a newer version of Mail? Should I upgrade and will it fix this problem? Like I mentioned, I have used this version for years and no problems until recent.Thanks David for the help. The place I got the log from was in the window after Mail crashed again. When I went to Open Library/Logs/etc. the file mail.crash.log was greyed out. Anyway, here it is.
Here is the crash log:

I want to disable my mac.com mail, I know how to delete it but I cannot get into mail to do this, whenever I click on mail, or mail in system preferences to open it I get the spinning wheel and have to force quit. I am running a Macbook 10.7.5
Thanks,
Edward.You can't merge Apple IDs. You also can't cancel (delete) and existing ID, you can only choose to stop using it.
If your old ID was compromised and you can no longer access it, you'll have to contact Apple for assistance. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then 'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then then 'Apple ID account Security’. -
Can't get Mail to work - I get the spinning wheel and Mail freezes. I have to Force Quit Mail . How do I fix this problem?
Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
How do I get rid of the spinning wheel in Mail?
I am using OS X 10.8.4 and the dreaded spinning wheel keeps appearing everytime I try to do ANYTHING, including type a word or two in a new email or read an existing email.
As far as the previous situation, of my lost mail and folder, etc., I was told that if I didn't have a backup from before I did the upgrade to OS X 10.8.4, there was nothing more that could be done. I left the discussion because "there was nothing that could be done."
After that, at the recommendation of one of these dedicated volunteers, I connected my external hard drive and now I guess Time Machine is doing periodic updates.
On this situation, the headache of the SBBOD is with Mail. But...since I typed that question, yesterday, I am finding that I have a similar problem with iPhoto. It is very slow to go from one step to another, with the appearance of the SBBOD.
The ANYTHING I was referring to was anything I try to do in Mail. It's click on something, wait for the spinning to stop. Type a couple of letters or words and wait for the spinning to stop. I tried this with Safari closed and it was still a problem.
All of this started yesterday. It wasn't a problem before that.
I did look at old posts of the same problem and tried a couple of solutions, one being move the "Mail" folder out of the Library after doing the Go, Go to folder, etc. and that didn't work. -
Mac mail inbox spinning wheel adjacent icloud inbox
my Mac mail inbox, adjacent the icloud tray has a continious grey spinning wheel, no new mail is coming in.
Also there is a grey clock adjacent Reminders/Notes/iCloud? Are they related; how to fix?Hi Eric,
This is my very first post because I can usually fix things on my own, but I was freaking out a bit. I did so many things to mess up my mail, including changing an IMAP account to a POP account, applying rules that were not very smart, and when things started to go wrong, I deleted the POP account. Essentially, I pulled all my emails off the server, put them in a folder on my Mac, then deleted that folder by deleting the account. But, I appreciate your reply and potential solution. I'm always happy to learn more about my Mac, and now I know where I can look (home/user folder Library/Mail) should this happen again, so thanks for that. I was just going to leave a reply to my own post;
I panicked, but (I think) I have fixed this. I used Time machine to restore my inbox. Suffice it to say I have a much better understanding of Apple's Mail app and how careful you need to be with setting Rules. <—— (Very embarrassed face) -
Mail App not opening - spinning wheel!
Hi,
I recently upgraded to OS10.4.4 (combo) from 10.3.9
Mail presented as a problem even then. I got some help by searching these sites. (Deleted my Plist, re-entered all account info) Got it working - though it had refused to import/transfer all my old mail.
Now it has thrown the dolly out - as if I got one over it - it refuses to open!
Spinning wheel and I have to force quit.
Any ideas out there?
Thanks. Steve.Hi Ernie,
I should clarify that I don't have both mail clients running at the same time - and that neither are set to check mail other than manually. Once in a while I just click on Thunderbird and download messages so that I have a copy to work with if Mail misbehaves!
Judging from the volume and demand on your time on this forum I don't think it a bad idea. Actually there are features in Thunderbird that are quite good! I like the ability to insert Smilies in messages from a convenient drop down button!!
I'm just a loyal Apple person and want, really really want, to use an integrated Apple suite of apps.
Now. Just how do I get those old messages (in previous POP account folders) into my current POP accounts?
Like Shirley, (another poster that you are helping so much) I think I may have pressed 'import' old settings when I updated to 10.4.4. thus creating a demand for new accounts instead of importing the older ones. Isn't that a wrong judgement of intuition by Apple? Their programming is usually more intuitive...
Thanks a lot for all your advice last evening Ernie - you're a Star!!
Steve.

Mail don't stop the spinning wheel
and I can't access my mails from MobileMe, my two other accounts in Mail are working. I realized that I still can send mails from my MobileMe account but my mail application
shows the wheel, even if the mail I send is already out and received.
Strange issue. MobileMe is always receiving slower mails then the other accounts, but now......?!?!
thanks in advance for any idea.I had the same problem pop up earlier this week.
Menus greyed out/spinning wheel.
Apple support told me to nuke my gmail account and reinstall it.
That did not fix it. But I did lose all of the messages in my gmail
inbox. What a surprise. Apple support fails again.
Perhaps Apple could enlighten us about the bug in their software that is causing the
problem and ETA for a fix.
I found this fix on another thread:
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
then it will import you mail messages into the mailbox. -
Mail has developed the irritating habit of a permanent spinning wheel at the top of the list of e-mails on the left side of the screen and a permanent "Downloading [x] of [x]" at the bottom of that list. Why is this happening and is there a fix. I'm not sure if it started with the download of 6.1.3 or later.
1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar at bottom
2. Hold the Mail app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app
4. Re-launch the app and test
Note: If necessary close all apps in the Task Bar -
My Macbook has died. Mail and Firefox wouldn’t boot up today and so I turned it off at the button. Now I’ve just got a spinning wheel and nothing works. In the middle of doing a magazine too, altho I did some backup on a stick.
Any suggestions?Try rebooting while holding down the Command and R keys (two keys).
If you see an icon for Recovery, select it and continue.
Then select Disk Utiltiy and press Return.
Now select the hard drive and the Repair Disk.
Quit DU when that is done and restart.
