IPad mail app freezing, need help

I've experienced my Mail app freezing twice in last two weeks in the middle of writing a mesage. I can't save it as a draft nor can send it, can't move to another folder. But if I leave the Mail app and go to gmail app it works. Anyone knows what's happening?
Thank you in forward for your help!

Have you tried the simple basic things?
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit the mail app and restart.Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button.Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
It is possible that you have an email in your inbox or trash folder that is causing the problem as well. Maybe an email with large attachment? If you have an email like that - try deleting it from the iPad. You may need to do that from the server in your webmail using a web browser if the mail app keeps frezzing on you.

Lotus Notes and mail.app question please help me

Hi all,
I just started Med. School at a school with a computer requirement. As a huge mac person, I'm very upset that we are required to use windows computers for school. So...I'm trying to use my mac as much as possible. I'm trying to find out how to sync my lotus notes email with mail.app on my mac. Does anyone know how to do this? Your help is greatly appreciated.

I'd like to know the same!

Address Book- blank and Mail app preferences- gone! (and iphoto and firefox

Hello,
Suddenly, my address book is blank. After starting the computer this morning, the doc came up in its basic original form. Mail app has lost its preferences (when it opens it says "You have no email accounts configured to use Mail..."). Iphoto has also lost all the preferences. The pictures and are there in the computer but they don't appear in iphoto; further, firefox also seems to have lost its preferences.
I have no idea what to do....
Any help out there?!
Thanks
Omar

Thank you for the replies.
It does appear that my contacts are in the metadata folder.
I deleted the AddressBook-v22.abcddb file and opened Address Book but it was still blank and I still could not add my contacts back. I noticed that the file did rebuild itself. I restarted and still nothing changed.
There is a second file, AddressBook-v22~.abcddb, I deleted that as well and it did not rebuild itself and had no effect.
I did make a copy of the complete folder. Any other suggestions or even just insights will win my undying loyalty. I believe this is the first awkward problem I've had with my Mac and I am really uncomfortable not knowing what is going on.
I can only think of a few things I've done since I last checked Address Book, but I don't see how it would create this problem
- Deleted my windows partition through bootcamp
- ran disk permissions for the first time
- unintentionally had my contacts placed on my ipod (I have no need for them there and it really wasn't what I was trying to do)
I don't think there was anything else. Oh, yes - I purged my computer of all hidden google related files. I had already done this before but it turned out there were more more more. Geez, if a google related hidden files broke my Address Book - there are larger problems at hand than my contacts. (I did Not have my contacts synced with a google account or do I do any syncing with any mobile devices at all)
Also, I do not have any AV software.
Thanks again.

Mail app has gone cuckoo again

My mail has stopped downloading from my ISP either by wifi or 3G. There is no issue with the ISP. When I try to download it connects checks and then immediately returns me to the home screen. When I try to delete emails it does so, takes me out of the app and when I return the emails are back. This happens when I try to also delete the trash folder emails.
This has happened before so I had to take it back to factory setting and start all over again. Don't want to do this again
This happened pre 3.1.3 so I updated no change though
Any help appreciated

I had a similar problem this morning.
The current setup has the phone syncing two IMAP mail accounts and calendar/contacts automagically with Google.
If I launched the iPhone mail app, it would briefly show, vibrate, then crash back to the main screen. This would repeat each time launching mail, and even after hard reset.
Going to the macbook pro and using the mail app to look at the mail accounts, there was one email message that did not display a body, suggesting a malformed mail.
Deleting this one mail via the laptop seems to have enabled my iPhone mail app to access that account again without crashing.
I would suggest to others having a similar issue to first consider finding and delete similar offending mails via other mail programs on their desktop/laptop.

Mail.app Strangeness - Please Help!

Hello,
We are using 6 Intel Apple MacBooks in our office (4 of which are running 10.4 and the other 2 running Leopard) and have been having some strange problems with e-mail and Mail.app. Everything was working fine for several months and then all of the sudden on the same day, all of the computers stopped being able to send mail (although they could all still receive). To fix this, I trashed everyones 'com.apple.mail.plist' file and set up their accounts again - everything was working again, until the next morning, when the same problem happened again. Of the 6 machines that I fixed this on the day before, 4 of them were not sending again, and 2 still worked fine (of the ones that still work fine, one is running Leopard and the other 10.4 - it doesn't seem to be an OS issue). To further complicate things, I've discovered that the machines that can't send mail to other people actually can send successfully to people in our own domain (i.e. [email protected] can send to [email protected], but not to [email protected]).
Our ISP is 'Telus' and they handle all our e-mail accounts (everyones settings are indeed correct and identical to each-other). Additionally, there is an XServe running Leopard Server in the office (that has no mail services running) acting as a gateway. What is causing our e-mails to stop sending (without any error / failure notification)? I can delete the prefs and reliably fix this, but it's getting a bit ridiculous. Any help / suggestions would be sincerely appreciated.

Thunderbird did not work, but adding the new user account worked. I thought of Thunderbird, but not the new user account - thank you.
I understand what this is telling me, but I'm not exactly sure what my next step would be. Is it easier to just move everything to the new account or is it worth it to continue to troubleshoot the older account?

Mail apps/plugins to help file messages?

With the closure of MobileMe I have finally made the move to Lion and with it I had to finally put Eudora to rest...
There was a great feature in Eudora where you could simply right click on a highlighted word in an email in your Inbox and it would provide you with a list of recommended folders wherre the email could be transferred to, very simple and efficient.
I have come across a few apps for Mail that seem to do the same thing:
Email Filing Assistant
Mail Act-On
Can anyone make any recommendations on these or other filing tools?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure they're necessary?
Mail in ML has an "Archive" button which can easily move it to a folder. Or there is the "file" toolbar button which gives you a dropdown of all your mail folders and you can easily file it away.
Personally, I've done away with all folders save one called "Archive." I file EVERYTHING there and then just use Spotlight to find my messages. It's way easier than trying to maintain a complicated filing structure that is rarely sufficiently flexible as to be useful.

AS3 not working. Need to implement code to lauch viewer's default mail app. Please Help!

Hello,
I'm struggling to work out why; when you click on the "Contact" link/movie clip on my home page, it No Longer launches my Entourage default mail application. The action script is below. I've tried implementing loads of different mailto: as3 codes into my existing code, however none of them seem to be working with my existing code. I'm not an expert coder and could really use some idiot proof instructions/code here, what the code is, where to place it in the existing code and what other buttons/movie clip/instance name I'll need to create? Can anyone help me, Please?

Hi Ned,
Thanks for the prompt response and help. This is the mailto code I'm trying to implement into my existing code with no luck:
var linkToEmailAddress:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:[email protected]");
email_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, emailAddress);
function emailAddress(event:MouseEvent):void
    navigateToURL(linkToEmailAddress);
I've changed the "email_btn" to "contact_mc" and tried a bunch of other things too.
Your advice made sense to me so I'll go over it again with a fine comb and see if I can work it out.
Any other tips on how and where to paste the mailto code above would be much appreciated.
If the ball is in my court now, I will keep at it, and hope to get it right.
Thank You,
Kavi

Mail app etc gone from my iPod Touch

I did a restore on my touch, and upon restoration the update I paid for last time is missing and therefore the programmes have gone.
I am assuming (I hope) that I am not required to pay again, so how do I get back to the latest version (Obviously not including V2)
Cheers

Hi Gary,
Provided you are using the same computer you purchased the Jan Update on and have not since reinstalled the OS or done anything major to it, then Autosynching (turn off manually manage music etc.) should reinstall your apps.
If not, it gets a little more complicated, search this forum as the question has been answered a lot of times before.
Good luck,
Dud.

Mail app gone

mail app is gone. can't find using spotlight

Insert you OS X installer DVD. Go to the Optional Installs folder and launch the Optional Installs package installer. You can then select Mail for reinstallation. You will then need to re-install the 10.6.7 Combo Updater that you can download from support.apple.com/downloads/.

Re-install Mail.app?

How do I re-install the Mail.app? I can't find the download for it. I've got some sort of gremlins in my program that is deleting ALL my messages. Is this risky?

HI,
Try rebuilding the Mailbox first as I suggested here.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2347032&tstart=0
Reinstalling the Mac Mail app won't help.
If rebuilding the Mailbox didn't help, try restarting your Mac.
If that doesn't help,
Go to the Mac Mail Menu Bar, click Mail/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Mail. N
Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail. If the mailbox functions as it should, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.

Mail app and GroupWise mailbox via IMAP

I am using the Mail app to access my GroupWise mailbox via IMAP. I am experiencing the "neverending cache update" problems that others have reported in this forum, without any relief (shy of killing activities that appear to have stalled).
That aside, I have a question. The folder that stores mail message that I have sent in GroupWise is "Sent Items". The Mail app has gone ahead and created a "Sent Messages" folder in my mailbox for the same purpose. While this is somewhat of an inconvenience, the greater problem is that messages that I send via the Mail app are not recognized by GroupWise as "sent messages" by nature of not appearing in the "Sent Items" folder, which causes, among other things, filters to return incorrect results.
So... is there a way to control what folder the Mail app uses for sent messages on an IMAP mailbox, such as my GroupWise mailbox? (Other mail clients, such as Thunderbird, handle this situation well.)
Thanks.
- GC

Thank you... I suppose I should have said it didn't "seem" as flexible.
So, that is an improvement... now sent messages appear in the "Sent Items" folder as desired, rather than the "Sent Messages" that the Mail app created. One thing that I noticed now is that the message in "Sent Items" appears like it were a message stored in that folder, rather than one originating for the mailbox. Let me explain... messages sent from a native GroupWise client have attributes such as # recipients, # opened, # deleted, # accepted, #accepted, replied#, etc. None of these attributes appear for Mail app-originating messages. Is this a limitation or is there more magic to be aware of?
Thanks,
- GC

Worried About Losing Mail Messages in mail.app!

I have just switched my email from POP to IMAP. I did so by creating a new email account that had the IMAP settings. I migrated my IN BOX, DRAFTS, SENT and TRASH to the IMAP server, but I still have many folders of saved messages on my computer. I would prefer to leave these saved messages on my computer because they are too large to put on my email server.
I would like to delete the POP account, but I get a very ominous warning from mail.app that says:
+Are you sure you want to remove the “David's Email" POP account and all of its messages? The account’s setup information, mailboxes, and all messages will be deleted permanently from your computer. Copies of messages on the mail server, if they exist, will not be affected.+
I am concerned that if I delete the POP account, all of the saved messages that have been filed in various folders on my local computer will be deleted. I don't want this to happen!
Will I lose all those local messages? What should I do to ensure that I don't?
Thanks!
David

The simplest method is probably to allow TimeMachine in OSX Leopard to backup your mail. It should do this automatically once you connect a hard drive to your Mac. If you don't have Time Machine or want another option, than you should be able to create an archive (backup) of the mail account in question. With the Mail app open, select Help from the Menu and search for archive for instructions on how to accomplish this task.

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox. Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions. It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app. But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone. And not in the Deleted box. Just gone. Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up. Please help.
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
Next...
Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
Select All = command A

i found out my prob!
here is what you do.
go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
click "software updates".
click "installed software"
if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
go to mail.
click "mail" at the top.
click "preferences...".
find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back
