Mail window closes 2 seconds after tapping it open

I've updated to the next update for my 3GS. I touch my mail icon, the window opens and then closes in seconds. I know others are having problems with mail, but I haven't seen this issue in the posts. I've synced my phone and I've turned it on/off trying to clear it.
Any ideas? Thanks so much for any advice.
Martha

I've had exactly the same problem after the update iOS4.0.1 on my iPhone 3 GS (one mail account - POP3).
Following steps solved it:
I deleted the mail account on my iPhone (before I noticed the settings).
Turn off/ on iPhone.
I added my account back on my iPhone with the same settings.
After this it works!

  • "Mail" application "closes unexpectedly" after a few seconds.

    “Mail” application "closes unexpectedly" after a few seconds.
    I use "Mail 1.3.11" to hnadle my e-mail. It works fine.
    This weekend, due to a problem with an address, the server of my University has delivered more than 1000 messages to my account.
    When I have opened "Mail 1.3.11" those messages have begun to enter into the "in" mail box. I have stoped it but anyway a good quantity of them have entered.
    I have already solved the server issue but now that I want to empty those messages from "Mail 1.3.11" I cannot since the application "closes unexpectedly" a few seconds after opening it without letting me do anything.
    How could I open and kept open my "Mail 1.3.11" until I am able to clean it?
    Thank you,

  • Mail windows close when link accessed

    When I click on a link in an email all Mail windows close and the link opens in Safari. How do I make it not close the Mail windows?

    Hi,
    Does it fix your problem when you log on to another computer? 2 Weeks ago I had exactly the same problem. Helpdesk said it had something to do with my profile. They asked me to first log off from the computer the error occurred, then they told me to log off from the computer which was working fine. Apparantly, the helpdesk did something to my profile next (reset or initialize?). When I logged on to the computer which was causing the problem, the problem was solved....
    Sorry I cannot give you any concrete info on what the helpdesk did... But that's what did it for me...
    Hope your problem is solved soon!

    Firefox 4 on Mac OSX 10.6.7 won't quit when QUIT is selected.
    The window closes, but the application remains open necessitating a forced-quit. Until recently it worked fine. I've Downloaded Firefox again and reinstalled but the problem persists.

    Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:

  • Finder window closes as soon as it opens

    I have some recovered data that has been giving me problems.  After copying the folder back to a rebuilt MBP, the finder window closes immediately upon opening that folder.  Any ideas on what exactly is corrupt or forcing this window to close?
    MBP 17, 10.8.2

    I guess if this were happening to me, I would suspect that one or more files in that folder is sufficiently corrupted to kill the Finder.   I would create a new folder and, using Terminal and its mv command, move files one by one into the new folder, testing to see if the original folder can be opened after each step.  Others may have better plans....

  • Open mail message closes automatically after few seconds

    Whenever I open a mail message to read - it automatically closes after a few seconds. Can this be prevented. Thanks

    I just started having this issue as well. I recently downloaded my NHL hockey teams ICS calendar file into my exchange account. After that, when I read an e-mail on my iPhone, it would close the window and go back to my inbox on my iPhone. I first turned off calendar sync on my iPhone. At this point, I could read e-mail. I then moved the NHL hockey team's calendar events into another calendar in a separate PST, then turned calendar sync back on on my iPhone. I can still read all my e-mail.

  • Adobe Reader 11 Closes Seconds After Openeing

    I have Adobe Reader 11 and it will open for a few second and then close automatically. I have windows 7. I have used Adobe's cleaning tool to remove all traces of the reader and then restarted my computer. I downloaded it again and reinstalled the reader. I restart my computer. I still have the issue. Please advise.

    Three things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

  • When i try to open the itunes store in itunes,windows closes it after not finding a solution for the problem.I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Itunes software. I am running Win 7-with IE10-any help?

    When I selected the Itunes store on my win PC today-the program was closed by windows with windows saying there was a problem. I tried a couple of times and then uninstalled the itunes software and reinstalled it with the same results. The program has always worked before but I have not used it recently since the Ipad now receives it's software updates right off the router. I am running Win 7 with IE10. Anyone with the same problem?

    My post has been viewed 24 times, and yet have had no answers. I have always like adobe products, however if this is the type of support they offer, I will never purchase another product of theirs. The issue I am having is the same issue many others have had, and yet no answer. Poor customer service!

  • How do I stop my iTunes crashing seconds after I've opened it?

    Please help!
    I have a HP Pavillion 15-e013tx laptop, with Windows 8. Recently I've had a problem. Whenever I opened my iTunes library, within seconds, the message 'iTunes has stopped working' appears, and I have no choice but to close the program. I have no idea why it's doing this! I have tried reinstalling the program, which didn't work, and don't know what else to try. Does anyone have any recommendations, or should I try calling Apple?
    Thank you!

    Hello there, Mateorocks.
    The following Knowledge Base article povides some great troubleshooting steps for your issue:

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368
    Particularly:
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.

  • Why is it no longer possible to make the download window close automatically after downloading is finished ?

    Only two days ago the download window closed after downloading.
    What happened ?
    And why is there a new and less efficient download window ?

    Firefox now manages the downloads in the Downloads folder in the Library (History > Show All History > Downloads) and download are treated as history items.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Downloads+window
    So you open the Library if you inspect all downloads and this Library window doesn't close automatically.
    When a download is in progress then you see a download progress (timer) bar on the Navigation Toolbar instead of the Download Manager button and that button is highlighted once the download has finished to make you aware the their are new downloads.
    You can view the new Download Manager in a tab by opening the about:downloads page and consider to open this page in a separate window.
    You can set the Boolean pref browser.download.useToolkitUI to <i>true</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to restore the classic Download Manager window and make all download settings appear in "Tools > Options > General".

  • All open windows close when another one is opened

    Running OSX10.6.7
    Recently the window behavior has changed, now when a different active app is selected, all the windows from other active apps become hidden
    if one holds the Option key when selecting a new app or a hidden window in an open one, the new window opens and the old ones remain on screen but not active
    this behavior is new, perhaps coincident with the latest snow leopard update
    I suppose that I may have triggered this change by some accidental combination of key strokes 
    I prefer that the act of opening a new window not affect the other open windows
    is this behavior controlled by a preference pane somewhere, or some combination of key strokes or by one of those programs such as Macpilot or Tinkertool, although I do not recollect deliberately changing anything

    It's a hidden Dock preference. You can change it in TinkerTool, or launch the Terminal application, copy or drag -- don't type -- the following text into the window, and press Return:
    defaults write com.apple.dock single-app NO
    You may have to relaunch the Dock or log out for it to take effect, I'm not sure.
