Mail won't quite without "force quite" , Mail stops receiving emails after a while, not happy about MAIL's performance!!!! :(

I have massive problems with Mail.
I use mail at work and have 3 accounts running
1. Mac. mail account
2. Gmail mail account
3. Exchange Server
I have quite a few folders in my accounts where I have to archive my emails to.
Often very often or lets say annoyingly too often mail stops working.
- stops receiving emails
- emails I have put away in folders disapear in my inbox again
- if I try to quite Mail it won't I have to force it and then when I open it again all my emails I was working on open again even so I have sent them already.Also all the emails I have folded away are back in my inbox WHAT A WAIST OF TIME!!
I AM VERY UNHAPPY ABOUT MAILS PERFORMANCE AT THE MOMENT! IT SIMPLY DOESN'T WORK!
Does anyone have the same problems and more importantly does anyone has a solution to this problem other then switching to Outlook???
Thank you!
Oliver

I have the "stops receiving mail" problem with Exchange.  Sometimes I can open up the Activty window in Mail and stop  the stuck processes. Other times I have to close then reopen Mail.  I usually do the latter. A fix would be nice.
I wonder if your other problems are related to this. The actual process of relocating your messages is maybe queued up behind one of the stuck processes. Just guessing. I have not had that problem.

    I found out what was wrong. It's an ad-on. SoThink Web Video Downloader Not that it is faulty or not compatible, it just keeps a cache of EVERYTHING you visit that is flash. Not just the flash that you download, but any flash on any site you visit. Mine was huge, I emptied it, and the problem stopped.

  • Safari keeps freezing and crashing on my macbook. Won't let me 'force quit', re-start or shut down. HELP!

    Sometimes when I am surfing the internet each website gets slower and slower to load, and eventually the little loading rainbow icon just keeps going round and round and it has frozen and crashed. What concerns me also is the fact that when this happens it won't even let me 'force quit Safari'. Although I can still bring other applications up (other than the internet), it won't let me shut down or restart either. The only way to get the internet working again is to press the power button which I know I shouldn't do, but what choice do I have when it won't let me force quit, restart or shut down?
    I am up to date with all the software updates. Because I was having this crashing problem I downloaded both iBoostUp (off app store) and MacKeeper off the internet to scan for hidden viruses etc, but it still hasn't eradiated the problem.

    Tell us what Extensions you put there; if no extension, what other apps you installed BEFORE this began to occur.
    You must fall under one of these situations.

  • After installing AdBlock Plus I can't quit Firefox without force quitting - help!

    I installed Adblock plus and immediately noticed several issues.
    It took forever to bypass the NY Times opening ad and get to the real front page - troublesome, and time-consuming but at least I avoided the ad.
    More importantly, I couldn't quit Firefox without force quitting. If I used Command Q or selected Quit Firefox from the menu, I got the spinning beachball of death.
    When I disabled Adblock, the problem persisted. When I uninstalled Adblock Plus the problem was resolved and I could quit Ff in my usual manner.
    Any solutions here or do I just forget about Adblock Plus - too bad, it seems like a great idea even though it slowed down NYT (it was faster just hitting the skip ad button after I uninstalled Adblock Plus)

    Problem solved.
    Trashed folder for Adblock Plus and reinstalled.
    Disabled Status-4-Evar and Adblock Plus works and I don't have to force quit to get out of Firefox.

  • I can't open blank template. Can't quit pages without force quit. Re-installed pages, no change, checked for updates, non needed everything else appears ok

    I can't open a blank template, Can't quit pages without force quit, re-installed pages, no updates needed, rest of program seems to work, any answers?

    Before trying to answer, I wish to check if you are really running under 10.4.11 and in this case, which is the exact application's version in use.

  • Mail won't send without Connection Doctor having to be launched.

    Mail won't send without Connection Doctor having to be launched. After running Connection Doctor, it will send, so settings all must be ok. But 15 minutes later, I need to "check again" to send mail. I read previous posts on this from a few years ago, but my laptop is running Lion.

    Try just watching the "Activity" window to learn what is happening to your mail - I have found it to be most enlightening.

  • Bypassing 'Parse Error' without force quitting?

    in case a 'Parse Error' is encountered, and oking it drives us into a loop with irresponsive Safari, is there a way to bypass the site without force quitting the application?

    OK. First, never waste your time verifying permissions or the hard drive. Just repair them. Verify does not repair anything.
    Second, your hard drive appears OK. The permissions messages are innocuous as they occur for everyone who installed a Front Row update and/or Java update. Simply put OS X replaced certain folder locations then replaced the original location with alias links to the new location. DU hasn't been fixed to reflect the change so it produces an error message related to these new links. Just ignore it.
    Third, most likely your problem is unrelated to disk or permissions repairs. What you should try is removing cache files. I can make two suggestions here:
    1. Download and install AppleJack - CNet Downloads or MacUpdate. Read the documentation carefully then follow the instructions.
    2. Download a utility such as Leopard Cache Cleaner and use it to remove system, user, and font caches. An immediate restart is then required during which the caches are rebuilt.
    3. Locate and delete the respective preference files for any applications that continue to quit unexpectedly.
    4. See the following for additional assistance:
    Apps unexpectedly quit
    Help - a program quits unexpectedly
    OS X 10.5- Some apps may unexpectedly quit after Java Update 4 is installed

  • My Macbook Pro won't shut down/force quit/log off...

    I've been having a problem turning my macbook pro off for about a week now. It won't shut down, force quit or log off. I've tried holding the power button down as well, with no luck. It won't even go to the sign in screen ....
    I'm not sure what the problem could be because I haven't done anything different lately... no new software, websites, etc.. Nothing came up with my Avast full system scan either.
    Help please! Thanks in advance.

    mac osx 10.6.8 itunes launches automatically and will not respond to quit or force quit in the Activities Monitor.  When I quit or go into the Activities monitor and try to quit, it goes off, briefly, then immediately relaunches.  If i turn the computer off, and then on, iTunes launches automatically.  ITunes 10.4.  The only thing I remember doing different, lately, is I just updated a couple of days ago.  Has anyone else had this issue?  Thanks!
