My mail app on iPad 3/3G won't stay open, opens blank for two seconds then quits. Thanks for your help.

IIt's strange. I upgraded to iOS 8.3 and now my mail app won't work at all. It opens with a blank mail screen,mouth after two seconds or so it crashes. doesn't show even a piece of mail text. Please help me. Mail is such a major part of life/iPad. Thank you all!

Try to reset your iPad then force close the mail app
Reset
Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot. No data will be lost.
Force close an app
Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.
If neither of those work you may want to go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars, delete your mail account (it only deletes it off your iPad, doesn't delete it from existing), then exit out, go back in and re-add the info. See if that helps to clear things up.

  • Yahoo! Mail in Mail App on iPad 2 iOS 7.0.3 Shows Unread Message Count

    Yahoo! Mail in Mail App on iPad 2 iOS 7.0.3 shows unread message count when the Inbox is empty.  This has been an ongoing issue since iOS 7 rolled out.  I was hoping with this latest update that this problem would be fixed.  Just wanted to report it.  If someone knows where bugs get reported, I'd appreciate the link.
    None of my other mail programs have this problem.
    I perform a reset (holding down the Home button and the Power button) and sometimes this clears it out and sometimes not.  Plus, I don't want to reset my iPad on a constant basis just to clear my mail count.
    Any insight or additional information is appreciated.

    I think it's an issue with yahoo. I have the same basic set up as you and will open my mail, see that I have 4 unread for example, read them, exit mail and have the red bubble still reading 4 unread mail. Usually it catches up and corrects in a little bit.
    Probably jus a glitch between yahoo and the mail app and not much you can do as a user but wait it out or get used to it...or I understand that there's a yahoo app if it really bugs you.

  • One of my apps won't stay open after iPad and app both had update

    After updating with the new update for the iPad I updated my nook app. Now my nook app won't stay open. I've restarted my iPad multiple times and tried it with and without wifi still won't stay open.

    I suggest trying the update again after an hour or two.  Sometimes, the notice that an update is available comes an hour or two before the developers actually sends the revised app out to be downloaded.

  • All Mail.app messages (POP) gone and window will not open in new LION

    I have upgraded to Lion but now all my email messages seem to have disappeared. I have tried installing Postbox and using that. It works fine but Postbox cannot seem to locate my old email messages either.
    I'd prefer to use the Mail.app but cannot right now. Any clues as to what might be causing this?
    Thanks!!

    You’re welcome.
    Look for additional information that may be available in the form of error messages written to the Console:
    1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
    2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
    3. Reproduce the problem and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result.

    Do you have any Mail plug-ins? In the Finder, go to each of the following folders (if they exist). What do you see there?
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    To make accurately reporting this information easier, you may open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal, type the following command (you can just copy it here and paste it in Terminal), and press <Return>. You can then copy the output of that command from Terminal and paste it in your reply to this post:
    ls -1 /Library/InputManagers /Library/Mail/Bundles ~/Library/InputManagers ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • How to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

    how to use itunes gift card to buy apps on ipad 2? Do I need a credit card for it?

    I'm sorry, but there is nothing that I can do to help you with this situation. I don't know why, but many people have problems when they try to buy gems in the Clash of Clans game. Personally, I wouldn't touch the game with a ten foot pole, but that's just my opinion.
    You will have to contact iTunes Store Support and ask for their help. You can email them from here.

  • Itunes store app on iPhone 4S won't stay open. Why?

    The iTunes Store app on my 4S won't stay open.  It closes after a couple of seconds.  Why?  How do I fix it?

    Hi gap03,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If the iTunes app is quitting unexpectedly, first make sure you've restarted/reset your iPhone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    Next, you may want to verify whether the issue is due to the iTunes Store connection:

  • Autodance/JustDance3 App won't stay open on iPhone 4S

    Hi. I have tried the two "fixes" as recommended by others on this site: 1) resetting my iPhone 4S (three times) and 2) I have also downloaded a new free app. Neither of those have fixed the problem. It only seems to be the Just Dance 3/Autodance app that won't stay open but I don't want to lose all my dancing videos on there as they cannot be recreated Please help me I've had the 4S from November 2011. I assume that if I delete the app and reinstall it that will delete all of my videos? I can't see another way to get the videos off the iPhone and on to my laptop. Very upset!

    Yes, have also contacted the app developer - no response as yet I can't seem to access ratings and reviews on iTunes on my laptop. I can't get on to the app store on my iphone currently as poor 3G signal :/
    From memory I think it has 5* reviews though. I hope someone has a fix for this.
    Do you know where the videos created are stored on the iPhone and if there is anyway to get them off and onto my laptop?
    Thanks for your reply

  • I purchased a book from but it won't stay open.  I have rebooted as recommended.

    I purchased a travel book on my IPAD in IBOOK.  It won't stay open.  I have tried to reboot the device.  That gets me into the book but I am still unable to read more than a page or two.  Any suggestions?

    Have you tried deleting the book and re-downloading it ? And do your other books still open ok ?
    Another thing to try if that doesn't work is to close the iBooks app completely and see if you can then read that book when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with iBooks 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

  • "File Upload" window won't stay open

    When you go to add an attachment/document via the "File Upload" window, you can select Photos from the Media section on the left side, then choose iPhoto library to find the pictures you want to send/upload.
    My iPhoto library is pretty large - over 200GB (I take a lot of pictures!) and I can't seem to be able to use this feature. In some apps, the file upload window won't even open any more - it pops up, then closes immediately. In other apps, it just hangs.
    Any suggestions (other than delete my photos, which is not an option!)
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the response. Sorry for the delay getting back here.
    I get several:
    [ERROR] no photo paths dict from iPhoto DB.
    then:
    Mozilla has caught an Obj-C exception [NSInvalidArgumentException: * -[NSURL initFileURLWithPath:isDirectory:]: nil string parameter]
    What is interesting is that this was happening in every application that I tried to upload/attach files with (Mail, Safari, Firefox) but since I created the account to test with, it only happens with Firefox (at least so far - Safari and Mail are working). I still get the "[ERROR] no photo paths dict from iPhoto DB." messages from Safari but get nothing when attaching in mail.
