My mail is frozen/due to an update. Please help!!

After a recent update, my mail will open to a frozen screen with the spinning wheel of death. The screen is maximized and I've used Force Quit but it doesn't terminate the program. So first off, how do I close Mail and then second, do I rebuild the mailbox or something else? I'm assuming that I have to close Mail first because I can't get to any of the options while it's stuck. I've looked over the web and can't find an answer to my specific question.
Newbie Mac user is beyond frustrated!! Pleeeeease help.

Klaus 1 - I actually figured it out! I held the Shift Key then clicked on the Mail icon on the taskbar. Was able to close then re-open without rebuilding.
Thanks anyway for your help.

  • Songs cannot be updated please help!

    I am receiving an error message every time I plug in my iPod. It says...Songs on the ipod "The Pod" cannot be updated because all of the playlists selected for syncing no longer exist. I only started getting problems once my itunes library surpassed the capacity of my 30 GB video iPod. All of the music is still in my itunes library and I simply wished to only copy the checked items to the ipod. However, itunes automaticaly created some type of a master playlist that I immediately deleted only due to the fact that I don't use playlists at all.
    Now I cannot copy any music to my iPod and everything has been deleted from it...I cannot use the restore setting in itunes nor change any of the main preferences for the actual iPod. Please Help.

  • My ipod touch 4g turned off and wont turn on again because it is frozen on the apple screen. please help!

    My ipod touch 4g turned off and when i try to turn it on it says its not charged. so i charge it and the apple screen comes up but stays frozen like that for a really long time, and then it just goes back to the "needs to be charged" screen. please help!

    - First try resetting the iPOd. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -Next connect to a computer and restore the iPod if theiPod appears in iTunes.
    - Next see if placing he iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    What I did this morning was remove the battery and sim card and I reinserted the battery, the same thing happened again and it is moving very very slowly
    Can you please help?? I would rather find away in which I do not loose my BBM contacts since I have not backed up my phone...are the contacts stored on my blackberry ID or will I loose them if I reset the phone?
    Thank you very much

    I have the same problem when I updated to OS X 10.10 I lost both my USB ports as far as they will not recognize anything that I plug into them.  The power part of the USB seams to work since it will recharge my Striiv Touch but nothing shows up when you connect anything to the ports.
    I have tried a number of things from rebooting, trying other usb devices that work on other systems with no problems but will not work on my Macbook Pro.
    Any Help out there?

  • Office live mail can't connect to Palm Pre Please Help!!!

    My email is through office live, where I set up my own domain .org. I have tried for hours every solution that's been posted online. I have called palm pre support and I knew more then the nice person trying to assist me. Not one solution works even Microsoft sent me to palm for an answer. Although office live is hotmail, I had to open a hotmail account and forward my email from my .org account to the new hotmail account to get my messages and it is creating a new set of problems.. How does a smartphone work if it can't be used for business? I have tried inputting the settings for different ports and ESMTP incoming and outgoing, I was at the sprint store with their top tech person and he tried for three hours before telling me to set up a hotmail acct to forward my mail. This is not a solution and causes logistical problems for me and using hotmail is not professional. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
