My mail is stuck, and the computer will not shut down and the Mail is not responding. What should i do?

Hi Clinton,
This happens to all the time and this is what I normally do. (Press and hold the pwer button until the computer shuts down) but, this doesn't seem to answer the real issue. Its just like you cut of the power to shut it down.
Kind Regards
Francis

You cannot update an iPad 2 to iOS 5 at this time, only iOS 6.1.

I dropped my phone in a toilet, the sound and vibrate are working but the screen will not turn on, what should I do? do I just need a new screen or what? I'm freaking out here

Don't freak out, just get over it. It's probably done.
What should I do if I drop my phone in the toilet?
Apple may offer you an refurbished iPhone in exchange for yours, for about half the cost of a new one.
I wouldn't be too specific about just how it got wet

Look at the power adapter connection on the MBP and make certain that it is clean and not discolored.
Trya SMC reset:

HT201401 My home button does not respond and the phone will not shut off

Has anyone had a similar problem where the phone will not shut off and the home button does not respond

You should try taking it to the Apple Store and asking for a replacement.
Or you could enable Assistive Touch from Settings>General>Accessibility.

Computer will not shut down. Claims Finder will not quit.

My system is Mac OS X 10.5.8 The computer will not restart. The error message is that Finder refuses to quit. I have not tried to power off the computer using power button b/c I am concerned that might lead to more problems. Other applications seem to be running slow but the failure to restart is the big problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello KathleenB,
Have you tried manually killing the Finder processes by using *Activity Monitor* which you can be located by going to *Applications -> Utilties -> Activity Monitor*. Look for the Finder process and click the *Quit Process* button. Don't worry if Finder processes reappear.
Then go ahead and try restarting your system to see if that helps.

I have had Lion since it was first released July 20th, and I have noticed that I can not zoom in on everything that is on the internet, some things seem to not be able to be zoomed in on. Are you saying that no matter what website you go to (this one for eample) the zoom function does not work?

HT4623 I clicked on an e-mail and now my IPad is stuck and the screen will not convert back to my e-mail list. How do I get the screen to go back to my original mail list?

My mail screen will not convert to the original mail listings. this happened when I clicked on an attachment sent with an e-mail. How can I get the mail screen unstuck?

Hi donna Ifromwa,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If your iPad is unresponsive after clicking on an attachment and you cannot return to your email inbox, I recommend forcing the attachment and Mail app to close using this method:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app's preview up to close it.
These steps come from this article:
iOS: Force an app to close

If you still cannot access your email, restart your iPad next:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Ipod touch home button stuck and the power will not turn on

Can someone help me? My daughter's ipod touch 4th generation has a stuck home button. We have changed the settings so that the alternate home button is on the screen; however, while she was using it earlier, the ipod shut off and will not turn back on. We have tried to plug it in, hold the power button, etc. Since the home button doesn't work, we can't hold the power and home buttons simultaneously as recommended. Any other ideas?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode, place the iPod in recovery mode using:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
or
http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
and
RecBoot tip
RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:
Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
Installs blootware on PC too
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My macbook pro will not charge. the charger blinks with a dim green light and the computer will not turn on

my macbook pro will not charge. the charger light is dim green and blinking.

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.You may have a bad charger, battery, or worse.

MACBOOK PRO is frozen. Keyboard and Trackpad do not respond. Computer will not shut down. Tried to close lid and reopen after 1'min but no response.

Brand New MACBOOK PRO just froze up and will not respond or even shut down.
Cannot find any support except for this.
Apple will not support unless you have bought a support package and is now offering to sell you this package.
Makes me ponder the thought that this is all a scamm to get more money out of the customer and this program (virus) was purposely loaded during one of the updates.
Not sure what I bought here but my respect for apple and its products is deteriorating rapidly.

I'm not sure where you got that idea. All Macs come with free phone support for the first 90 days:
http://www.apple.com/support/complimentary/
Further, you can always make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your nearest Apple Store and take the machine there for free advice and basic diagnostics (though any service may cost money outside the warranty).
Finally, Apple offers a 14-day, no-questions-asked return policy. If your machine isn't working properly right out of the box, take it back and get a different one.

That's a pretty ridiculous thing to say that clearly indicates an utter lack of understanding of how the tech world works. I appreciate that you're upset, but please try to stick to reality here. You won't get much sympathy from anyone saying silly things like this.

My computer will not shut down because my email is open but my email is not responding to anything. How do I get it to shut down?

I have been trying to shut down my macbook pro for the past half an hour but it says I need to quit my email before I can shut down. I can not get my email to respond I have pressed quit about 50 times and it just doesnt do anything! Earlier I tried to clean out my email and it said that not all the mail could be "put into the trash on my mac". This is a new macbook and I am at a total loss because I havent had it very long! Someone please help!

Force Quit Mail.
Press command + option + esc keys together at the same time.
Wait.
When Force Quit window appears, select Mail if not already.
Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.
Wait.
Mail will quit.
If this does not help, press the power button for 7 or more seconds.
Computer will shut down.
Restart.

Computer will not shut down, logout or restart

I got my computer about a month ago and I recently re-arranged some of my security settings (password, firewall, timed log out), and downloaded software for an HP Deskjet F4280 (HP Photosmart Studio, HP Device Manager).
Everything works perfectly, except when I go to shut down all the files disappear, the menu bar disappears, and nothing happens until a window pops up telling my finder could not log out.

Your issue is significantly different than the OP's (original poster's), so please start a new topic in the Account and Login forum.
Also, do NOT post your e-mail address in public posts. Spammers can pick it up. I have asked a host to delete it for you, so you shouldn't worry about it this time, but in future, keep it in mind.
P.S. Welcome to Discussions!
