Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
Go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > Network, choose Network Port Configurations from the Show popup menu, and make sure that the configuration used to connect to Internet appears at the top of the list. Leave checked (enabled) only the port configuration needed to connect to Internet and Built-in Ethernet (in that order if not the same), uncheck (disable) the rest of network port configurations, and see whether that helps — if it doesn’t, turn ON again the ones you want enabled.
Finally, try launching Mail under the following conditions (you may need to force quit it first if it’s running) and post back with your observations:
1. Holding the Shift (⇧) key down until the main window appears. This tells Mail to not select any mailboxes or load any messages upon start up.
2. With no Internet connection.

Mail wont load following OS6 update

My phone just completed the OS6 update. Now none of my mail will load. When I tap on the mail icon, i get a few messages (from yesterday) and it says ""Checking for mail"..then crashes. That is it. Have tried removing mail from settings, then reinstalling - no change. Did a hard reset (start and home button) - no change. Any other thoughts? I am thinking I will NOT update my iPhone 4s (second phone), iPad or iTouch until these issues are worked out...

meant to add - this is for all my emails (yahoo, gmail, exchange) - is the "mail" application that is the problem, I think.

Mail wont load new mail

My Mail program will no bring in new messages! I can check the messages online at Mac.com but not in the actual program. I have already tried deleting the preferences and defining the accounts again, and it only loads the same old messages. I've also tried the traditional rebooting to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Could it be that Mail is in an "offline" state? Is
the Mailbox > Go Online command enabled or
disabled?
I have two .Mac accounts. Both Mailboxes are online.
Go to Preferences > Accounts > Advanced. Is
Include when automatically checking for new
mail checked or unchecked?
It is checked for both my mailboxes.
Open Window > Connection Doctor. What does it
say?
For one .Mac account (the one I dont really use) t it says "Connection & login to server suceeded"
For the other .Mac account it says "Cannot connect to this .Mac server. Check your network connection and that you entered in the correct information in Account preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not uncheck that box."
Was this account set up as type .Mac in Mail, or was
it set up as POP? If .Mac, try rebuilding the the
mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox >
Rebuild.
I tried rebuilding both of them and now I dont have my old emails either. Just an empty Inbox.

Mail wont let me send anything or set up any other accts

I have nly one mail acct rigth now and that is the mobile me(why did i buy it), and it only has one server all diags look normal in and out have green dots but it still wont send mail I have tried ( I thought everything) to no avail

You must have some sort of Mail disease. I've got no green dots and everything works fine. What green dots are you talking about and why do you think it is normal? The only green dots I have are when people that I have in my iChat buddy list are online and I've got an email from them.
Ok, I don't have Mobile Me, but it is just another email account. What error messages are you receiving when you try to send/receive?

My MAC did a software update tonight and now my mail wont load, it is teeling me I need to update my mail software, can someone tell me how to do this please?e

My mac updated softwar tonight and now I have no mal, can someone tell me how to udate my mail sofware please ?

I assume you're talking about Security Update 2012-004 for Snow Leopard? Have you by any changed moved your Mail application out of the Applications folder? This will cause updates to fail to work - Apple's included applications should always be left where Apple installed them.
If this is the case, move it back, then downlad the update from Security Update 2012-004 (Snow Leopard) and run it again.

Mail wont load at all?

Have had this problem since next week and being not particulary technological minded im stuck! When trying to load the programme from my Dock it bounces about and then stops but when right clicking it states "not responding".
Not being able to search I havent looked for possible solutions although one suggestion on another post, to hold shift, has not worked? Any ideas welcome!

How did you fix this problem?
I have two members of my family who are experiencing similar problems.
Thanks

Firefox wont load any flash player or let me download anything

Firefox wont load any flash player videos and when it does it only buffers so far. I can't download anything like anti-mal/spyware to check if its anything like that.

Try to boot the computer in Safe mode with network support (press F8 on the boot screen) as a test to see if that works.
Do you have access to another computer to download the anti-mal/spyware programs and put them on a USB stick with the latest updates or their databases?
You can also try to download them via sites like FileHippo.

I AM TRYING TO UPDATE MY IPHONE4 AND WHEN I GO INTO THE SOFTWARE UPDATE IT WONT LOAD ANYTHING. IT JUST SAYS CHECKING FOR UPDATE

The update servers are still under pretty heavy load, so it's possible it's nothing on your end. Are you trying to do it over the air or through iTunes?

Mail gone, wont quit or display anything after update...

Hi Folks,
In the process of helping my dad upgrade his G4 mini to 10.5.6 from 10.4.something. He's on dialup still so screen sharing to get him going is not really an option and I"m trying to help him with this over the phone and it's slow going. The upgrade DVD ran fine and there were no problems that he noted. The machine is now running 10.5.6 that came on the DVD all OK. It is able to go online and safari works. Mail however has choked.
THe window opens when you run the program, but no mail is displayed when you select inbox or any other mailbox. The right hand pane of emails is blank. He is able to select to write an email and has sent several to me but they were never actually sent, nor do they show in the drafts or send email or any other email box. I have attempted to rebuild the mailboxes from the mailbox menu, and while it allows him to select this it doesn't help, still no messages displayed.
Further, Mail wont quit. When you try to quit it it hangs and it requires that you force quit it before you can restart the machine.
All the account preferences and passwords and addresses appear to still be there, you can go to preferences and see the settings. This is a POP account not an imap account, so there should be local copies of all the messages he has received and kept in his inbox.
I suspect a database issue or something? Is there a way to totally rebuild the database from scratch?
I did try running the vacuum index command from the terminal and that ran without returning any errors, but did not fix the problem.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated thank you!

I found it! Here is the answer from "troubleshooting".
Resolution
Force quit Mail if necessary: From the Apple menu, choose Force Quit, select Mail in the Force Quit window's list of applications, then click "Force Quit".
If the issue persists after relaunching Mail, follow these steps while Mail is not running:
From the Finder's Go menu choose Go to Folder.
Go to this location (type or paste the tollowing, then click Go):
~/Library/Mail
Move the items named "MessageRules.plist" and "MessageRules.plist.backup" to another location, such as your desktop.
Note: If you previously upgraded from Mac OS X 10.3 to Mac OS X 10.5, the files will be named "MessageSorting.plist" and "MessageSorting.plist.backup".
Open Mail. Note: At this point you can either set your Junk Mail settings and re-create your Mail rules manually in Mail preferences, or follow the next two steps (if you re-create rules and Junk settings, do not perform the following steps).
Quit Mail.
Place the items named "MessageRules.plist" and "MessageRules.plist.backup" back in the ~/Library/Mail folder (replace any copies that were added to ~/Library/Mail when you opened Mail).

Safari and other browsers slow to load and wont load https (secure)

Since the last update of Safari 5, we have noticed that we can't load https pages. So we went to Firefox, that seemed to help for awhile. Now we can't always load https in either. We are also seeing that http pages wont load quickly in either browerser. We have researched all posts within the last month about Safari 5 and hang ups, crashes and slow loading....we have tried everything suggested. Since sites don't load quickly, this has taken a lot of time. Any suggestions would be wonderful. We have contacted our DSL provider 6 times in the last 30 days and they can't find anything wrong with their service or with the modem. We are at a loss. Currently we are trying to download the MocOSXUpdCombo 10.6.4 but we keep timing out. Don't even know if this post will post. Oh yeah, Mail is having problems as well. We ran disk first aid and did the permissions as well. Any suggestions would be wonderful.

Hi again:
I am a long way from an expert on anything - SSL or communications. The fact that both browsers are affected seems to take it out of a Safari-only thing. Also, since everything works on your other computer seems to let your ISP off the hook. I don't think it is your computer, per se.
I did get some random thoughts. Things you might look at/try:
1. Reset Safari (empty the cache, for sure)
2. Take a look at the firewall settings on the computer that is giving you problems.
3. You might try Open DNS (free one) to see if the domain name server process is, somehow, an issue:
http://www.opendns.com/start/
4. You might also download the OS X 10.6.4 combo updater and reapply it. That is probably an overkill and it will take awhile, but it is possible something went wrong with the update.
You can see I am fishing, but nothing seems to be consistent in the behavior.

Websites wont load in any browser on my mac

Hey guys,
     I am runnuing safari 6.0.1 and it was working fine but then it started acting up and now it just wont load any site except for google. When i type in an adress it will show as if it were loading but the blue would just stop near the begining of the bar. When i load google or make a search it will work but if i want to click a like it the link i click on will not load.

     This problem is not only in safari it is in every browser, even in mail or messages it will only load gmail or google talk, very wierd.
Hope you guys can help
Thanks in advance

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Please help! Nothing will download and i have a loading bar on start up!!!
The mac hasn't ever given me any problems, it has been since plugging my new iphone 4s into it,
As i havent had internet at my home for quite some time i dont know whether the fact the iphone was at a much newer version than the mac it confused itself????? help me please!?

Hi there,
If you go to the Apple equivalent of: Appdata\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates (sorry am a mere PC user )
If there is a file titled iphone1,22.1_5F136Restore then try deleting it and then running iTunes without your iPhone attached.
Go to the menu and select Help/Software Updates which should then notify you that there are updates and allow you to download them in advance of restoring.
Hopefully this will download the update. Once completed attach the iPhone and restore.
Hopefully this might sort your issue out.
Ciao
