Mail won't open after installing Lion 10.7.4

Hi at all,
I have just downgraded my Mac Book Pro - June 2010 from OS X 10.8 - DP3 12A206J to Lion OS X 10.7.4, as soon as I started checking everything's ok I found out Mail's not working anymore, with the following error showing up. "Mail cannot be opened because of a problem" Check with the developer to make sure Mail works with this version of Mac OS X.
I have tried deleting all accounts from System Preferences, checking the /Library/Mail files, reinstalling Lion, but no luck.
Here're the first lines of the log. Hope someone can help me.

What a super, super pain. I upgraded from 10.8.3 to 10.8.4 and the MBP (MacBookPro4,1) would not start, except in Safe Mode. I tried downloading the update from Apple - didn't help. I tried the Combo update - didn't help. Couldn't find anything on the discussion boards, except that it was a problem with the graphic drivers.
Finally decided to do what lgiraldin did - wiped the HD, installed 10.6.3 from my origional DVD, migrated my data from the copy of 10.8.4 I had made, the upgraded to 10.7. Everything seems to be inplace except Mail would crash. Re-installed 10.7.5 from the recovery disk but it didn't help. Replacing MAIL with Pacifist didn't help.
I also found that my timemachine backup could not be used for recovery as it is on an Iomega network drive - the recovery partition does not allow me to mount the Iomega.
I found an installation of 10.7.5 that I had on another disk. Booted from that, copied the folder to the MacBook Pro HD, and now mail opens and runs correctly. Better than 10.8.3 too. In 10.8.3 it would often take 100% cpu and lock the entire computer for 1 or 2 seconds.
Thanks to Terry Mahoney and ApplesDownfall especially as I didn't have to wipe and re-install everything a THIRD time. I've wasted most of three days because there was no way to back out the update. Now I know that I have to create a Carbon Copy clone of my HD before any update. I'm going to stick with 10.7 until **** freezes over!

My address book won't open after installing Lion. Has this happened to anyone else?

I recently upgraded to Lion and couldn't be more pleased, except that my address book won't open now. It just bounces and then gives up and sends an error report to Apple. Please help.

I have the same problem. Has anyone solved this problem?

Motion 3 Won't Open After Installing

Hi,
I reinstalled Motion 3 after doing it 2 days ago because the beach ball keeps coming up and never leaves causing me to force quit. I let it stay up one night and when i awoke 8 hours later it was still up. thus, i reinstalled after trashing it. there's never any motion files in the library to delete and no motion files in the receipts. this time it won't open after installing it and booting down computer. I have lion 10.7.5 the fcp studio disk that i install for motion says version 3 but could have sworn on the computer when it was working it said motion 4. Any suggestions? did all my software updates too.
Thanks,
joe

Motion 3 is part of Final Cut Studio 2. There are many threads on these boards about trying to get those apps to install properly on OS versions above 10.6.8. Here's one such thread. A search will bring up additional ones.

Iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1

Please help. My iphone 4 won't open after installing ios 7.1.. I already connected it to my pc but still didn't open. I waited for a long time, press the on/off, home buttons but still didn't work. Thanks Jah bless all..

Honsetly I do not know if they will charge you, however apple products usually have a one year warranty, such as your charging cable, might. But if you tried to use another charging cable then you will want to make an appointment with Apple. good luck

Mail won't open after computer falls asleep - forced to force quit!

Hi there,
My mail won't open 85% of the time unless I force quit and restart my computer. Then, after my computer goes to sleep, I click on the stamp on my dock, and nothing happens. My computer says its still open. I've tried quitting mail and reopening from my Applications folder, but still, nothing happens, and I have to force quit my computer and restart so I can get/send my mail.
Any one have an idea for me? I have my gmail and another personal email set up as IMAP. Could there be a glitch in the way I set that up? Mail seems to come and go fine, when it's active.
Thanks in advance for your time and any help

Has anyone found a solution to this? I'm having the exact same problem and it really just started a couple days ago.

Macbook pro won't reboot after installing lion

After installing Lion on a 2007 MacBook pro, it won't reboot. Just gets to the gray screen with the spinning wheel. Have tried re-installing and disk repair to no avail. Anyone else figured out how to fix?

Lion only runs on Intel based systems which have to be core2duo. with a minimum of 2GB RAM.
If these is given on your system, in most cases it comes from running old PPC-Applications which are not longer supported since Lion.
Try to start your MB in "Safe Mode" by holding option key (alt) imediately after first chime and disable / delete this applications.

Aperture 3.4.1 won't open after install

Aperture 3.4.1 wont open after install. it says my graphics card isn't supported. Here's my card ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB, but I can't find specs required for 3.4.1, so I got no idea

Here is the Error Message I get
"The installed graphics card does not meet the minimum requirements for Aperture."
Here is my hardware profile:
iMac
24-inch Mid 2007
Processor 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory 4 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM
Graphics ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro 256 MB
Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G56)
Went by the Apple store and they didn't have anybody that had seen this one yet. Going by tomorrow for a deeper dive to see if they can find any issue with hardware. Seems like they should have found this before release. I suppose it could be an old card. My iMac is from 2007, so it could be that they have passed it by. I just want to knowwhat I need to get next. Ill reply to this tomorrow if it gets resolved

Why won't iMovie 11 open after installing lion?

I recently installed OS X Lion on my early 2008 Macbook and iMovie 11 worked perfectly. However, I just upgraded my internal hard drive to 500gb. I then reinstalled the new OS X Lion on this hard drive and used Time Machine to import all my files and applications including iMovie 11. However, now iMovie will not open. The menu bar shows that the application is running, however, there are no windows open and I can't open any projects. I have run software update many times and it states that it is up-to-date (iMovie 9.0.4).    I even redownloaded iLife and resinstalled everything, but it still won't open. Any suggestions?

Try removing these two files (must be removed at the same time)
1: Quit iMovie 11
2: Remove: {your local home account}>Library>Preferences>com.apple.iApps.plist
    AND
3: Remove: {your local homeaccount}>Library>Preferences>com.apple.iMovieApp.plist
    These files will be recreated when you launch iMove
4: Start up iMovie 11 (should show your movie again)
Good Luck. Work Great!
PS...
Got Lion? (user prefs is hidden)- Here is how to find the user library preferences. Then you can remove the files as described. This will fix iMovie launching and showing the windows.
Use Go To Folder The Go To Folder command, in the Finder’s Go menu (also accessible by pressing Shift+Command+G). Just type ~/Libraryand click Go to view the folder.

Mail crashes/won't open after installing 10.5.7

After installing the 10.5.7 update my mail is crashing when opening?

Hello G6:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Permission repair probably will do nothing (it will not hurt, however).
The first thing I would do is download the combo OS X 10.5.7 updter and apply it.
If that does not help, rebuild the mailbox(s).
If that does not help, trash the preference file (com.apple.mail.plist) and restart.

Outlook 2010 won't open after installing icloud for windows

Hi,
Installed icloud for windows at work this morning after moving my MM account to icloud at home on my MBP.
Installed ok but after ticking the mail, contacts, calendar and bookmark boxes on icloud for windows Outlook 2010 starts but won't open and stays on the "Processing..." for a long time before I close it.
Also the icloud for windows control panel won't reopen except the time it opens after installation. I have tried removing it and rebooting but after it's installed, if you close the control panel it won't reopen although it's still running in Task Manager. Closing it in Task Manager and restarting doesn't make a difference.
Currently I removed, rebooted and reinstalled and only have the bookmarks ticked and outlook works ok but the control panel still won't reopen.
I am on a exchange server so don't know if this is part of the problem. Not real worried about mail but would like calendars working again.
Very thankful for any help you can offer.

I had the same problem after successfully moving from MobileMe to iCloud yesterday on my PC, ipad and iphone.
Today I couldn't open Outlook 2010. An Outlook dialogue box for my MobileMe email account kept asking for the email password, and although I put the password in, it kept re-appearing.
I turned off Norton spam temporarily, because I noticed Outlook was stuck processing the Norton plug ins at opening, and managed to open Outlook but the programme crashed every time I tried to access my email account settings (I thought I would try to delete the MobileMe email account).
I then opened the Control Panel for iCloud and unchecked the Mail with Outlook box, which has enabled Outlook to work again. The @me.com email account was gone when I checked the email accounts. I never needed to use the @me.com email account anyway.
How frustrating and such a waste of my time.
Does anyone know what difference it makes if the MobileMe/iCloud email is not connected to Outlook? Does it really make any difference when you have your email accounts in the iPad and iPhone anyway?
