My Mail app is crashing and freezing my mac.

i have a macbook pro mid 2012, 13inch, i5 2.5 GHz. As soon as i open my mail app, it starts freezing and in few minutes my whole mac is crashing. I tried all small solutions like rebuilding mailbox and removing- adding internet accounts but its still the same. in a day i am restarting my mac from power switch more than 20 times, any solution i can get for this? it has made my office life miserable. thanks

Mail app keeps crashing (and other related problems)

A few days ago, my Mail app began crashing on seemingly unrelated events, so I assume my data got corrupted. I won't explain all the scenarios because it's a complete mess. To keep it simple, I have only 2 accounts and they are both on Gmail, so no backups are needed. I'd like to try doing a complete wipe of all data that the Mail app uses and that should fix it.
What files/folders does Mail use? So far, I've found:
~/Library/Mail
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
I've also seen someone mention ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist, but I don't have this file.
After deleting the above and creating my mail accounts, the crashes are back. The only possibilities I can think of are:
1. I haven't deleted EVERYTHING owned by Mail yet. <-- What other files/folders belong to the Mail app?
2. Mail is depending on something else on my system that is broken.
3. Mail app itself somehow became corrupted.
4. Something being synced from my Gmail is not properly being handled, resulting in a crash.
When this started happening (if it helps):
1 day after installing the OS X update 10.8.3 as well as MacBook Pro Retina SMC Update v1.1, my MBP froze as soon as I loaded League of Legends. This was followed by a reboot as I couldn't Cmd+Tab out of the game. I wasn't aware of the Force Close App shortcut at the time, so I used the power button. That was the only time this happened, and it has worked fine a few times after the updates were applied and also worked after the reboot following the freeze. Since that time, I have encountered another issue where just about all of my apps crashed simultaneously -- no 3D-accelerated apps were even running this time.
Since then, I've updated VirtualBox from 4.2.8 to 4.2.10 (seemed like something that could cause this weirdness as I always have a VM running) and have not had any problems except Mail crashing all the time.
This question is primarily about fully resetting the Mail app to clean settings/data, but any thoughts on what may have happened are also welcome

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

App store and Mail app are crashing in my mac air 10.9.5

All my apps are crashing and i am not able to open any of them . App store for Software update and Mail app, Photos app are all crashing. I have OS X 10.9.5 in my system. I removed Parallels trail version and also Clean My Mac app, Still i have the issue,Please help me to resolve the issue,

"CleanMyMac" purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.9 ("Mavericks"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

Square app crashing and freezing on iphone 4

I have a square app and device to process my cc and last 2 days keeps on crashing and freezing
I have an iphone 4 and it is up to date with all the updates, is it the app itself? the phone company? the phone?
I am very frustrated. Has this happened to anyone? what do I need to change? or Do?
thanks

I forgot to mentioned that as an ONLY solution I kept on RE-installing the app 7 times!!!
that seemed to be THE ONLY WAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM, horrible and frustrating, has anyone experienced the same type of problem?

My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet. We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset." Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

Pasting in a network path causes Mail app to crash every time.

Whenever I try to copy and paste a network path (example \\servername.domain.school.edu\rootfolder\subfolder) into an email within the mail app, it crashes.
Running iPhone 4 AT&T iOS 6.0.1

Note that your System Details List shows that you have a user.js file in the profile folder to initialize some prefs on each start of Firefox.
The user.js file is only present if you or other software has created it, so normally it wouldn't be there.
you can check its content with a plain text editor if you didn't create this file yourself.
The user.js file is read each time you start Firefox and initializes preferences to the value specified in this file, so preferences set via user.js can only be changed temporarily for the current session.

After upgrading to the latest IOS version 7.1, in mail on ipad, if I select more than 5 mail items to delete the mail software package crashes and I have to relaunch mail? Anyone else noticed this?

I haven't encountered this problem on my iPad Air but this is what I usually do when Mail misbehaves.
Quit the Mail app like I describe then reset the iPad.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.

Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

Mail app keeps crashing after Yosemite update

I just bought a new MB Pro a couple of months ago. Hardly any apps installed.
After the upgrade to Yosemite the mail app keeps crashing when I launch it. I have read a lot of other topics but I can't find a solution.
Anybody out there who can help me? Or should I just wait on an update for this?
Regards
Rob

Did a clean install of Yosemite after issues with constant crashes on a mid-2010 MacBook Pro. Then tried Migration Assistant which hung up forever (12 hours) at 7 minutes to go. Forced quit and rebooted. I tried this after the initial reinstall transferring files from the worthless non-function software rouse called "Time Machine" which should be renamed "Waste of Time Machine". So I have spent endless hours on various Apple support forums on Time Machine, Migration Assistant, and Apple Mail forums, with dozens of users with similar or the very same issues. The most striking thing in all these forums is that there are no "this solved my problem" posts, and any response from any Apple support person or employee is 100% absent. I have used nothing but Macs since 1987. In the last few weeks I've spent more time trying to solve Mac computer OS issues than using my Macs. The Tim Cook era is starting to mirror the Ken Scully era when Apple was the company you loved to hate. Lovely hardware designs -- crappy worthless software. No mail, no 8000 image iPhoto library (despite two levels of backups) - no way to recovery that I can discover. Spaceship buildings, silly watches (which I predict will go the way of the of the Newton), daft Siri, and complete lack of focus on software that actually functions with the pretty hardware. I love my iPad and iPhone, but I see Windows and Android in my future, after 27 years of blind, and in retrospect, misplaced Apple loyalty. The Apple Titanic has an iceberg dead ahead of it that it is too blind to see.

My blackbery 9860 crashed and freeze quite a lot

hello blackberry support.. i hope you can help me...
my blackberry 9860 crash and freeze quite a lot and it's annoy me..
i have the bundling OS which is 7.0.0 bundle 2395
i still have 93.9 mb of application storage...
2.2 gb of built in storage
and 97.2 mb from media card...
what should i do to get rid of the crash and freeze??

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Finding out what is wrong is a matter of deduction...there may be a badly behaving add-on app causing it. There may be corruption in your OS. There may be a hardware level issue. You may be leaving too many apps open. Some apps may have memory leaks. The OS level you are using may have a memory leak. Many possibilities exist...so it's a matter of deduction for you to figure it out.
I would suggest starting with a clean OS reload. At the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
You may also want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

SOLVED: crashes and freezes

Ever since upgrading to SL, I have suffered frequent crashes and freezes which eventually bring the whole system down, and I have to Restart. Our IT guys (thanks Paul O'Connor) came up with a solution that reliably works for me. It possibly may have nothing to do with problems other people are experiencing, but I thought I'd share it with everyone, because it has been such an effective solution for me.
1. When first logging on, open Terminal (found in Applications>Utilities).
2. Type: 'sudo launchctl' and enter an admin password at the prompt.
3. Leave the terminal window open where you can get at it when needed.
4. When an application freezes or the Mac starts to behave badly, go to the Terminal window and type:
'stop com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
then
'start com.apple.DirectoryServices' <return>
For me, this brings my frozen apps magically back to life.
I hope this helps a few others,
Julian Blow

So what do if I do if terminal stopped working ever since I installed Snow Leopard? Also, in root mode, I am not even allowed to use the sudo command since it says both root and my main account are not in the sudoers file.
Looking at these threads on "Using Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard", almost none are about using features in the OS. They are all about how SL screwed up their computer and apps. Apple should be deeply concerned.

My mail app in Mountain Lion freezes

My mail app in Mountain Lion freezes a few second to a few minutes after launching. I have already re-installed the OS but it didn't help. Any thoughts?
I have one exchange account that I have removed and reinstalled. I've tried to see if it's conflicting with any of my other apps, I can't find anything there either. Never had this problem before, but would like use of this app. Thanks.

More info. It seems to freeze when switching between mail and other apps. It then becomes impossible to switch back to the mail app, though mail will be indicated in the app name just to the right of the apple menu

Mail app has crashed following ios7.0.2 update

My mail app has crashed following ios7.0.2 update , help?

Same problem, tried a full erase but when trying to restore from data from back up, problem reoccurred.
Tried same process again with full erase and reset but failed, handset now has unknown system error when tryign to restore as new phone. If you reset suggest that do not then try to restore data from back up as picks up the original bug.
Think it is going to have to be a trip to the apple store!!
