My mail shuts down after opening

my mail shuts down after 5 seconds

Have you tried closing the Mail app completely and then seeing if it works when you re-open it? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail '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 Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Mail Shuts Down After Opening

When I open my Mail, it shuts down after about 5 seconds. This has recently started happening. Could it be that some of my folders are too full? I barely have enough time to get to the folders since it shuts down so quickly.

Hi Adamguy,
Sounds like a corrupted preference file.
Open HD>Users>Your_Name>Library>Preferences folder
Now loo for the com.apple.Mail.plist and drag it to the desktop *DON'T TRASH IT*
Now open Mail application again.
Is it still crashing ?? When Mail stays open than you can trash the Mail.plist file from the desktop to the trash can.
Post back with the results ...

Mail shuts down after 3 secs on ipad 1

Can anyone help with this, my mail shuts down after approx 3 secs of opening on my ipad, have cleared all mail from desk top pc but still happens??

Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Mail app '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 Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.

Mail shut down after launch

Even after Recovery installation of OS X, Mail on ly worked one day before Mail again shut down after launch and receiving incoming mails. Any who have a functionally solution to fix this subject.

Do a backup.
Quit Mail.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Go to Library/Containers/com.apple.mail. Move the folder com.apple.mail to your desktop. You must move the entire folder, not just the contents.
Restart, re-launch Mail and test. If the problem is solved, recreate any required Mail settings and import any emails you want to save from the folder on the desktop. You can then put the folder in the Trash. If the problem remains, return the folder to where you got it replacing the one that is there.

Mail shuts down after creating POP account

Every time I set up my POP mail account using Mail version 2.1.3 on my iMac running OS X version 10.4.11 it shuts down when I try to get mail. After that it shuts down when I open it. I have to go in and delete the account immediately for it to remain open. I have the same setup on a MacBook running OS X version 10.5.6 without any problems. The setup is as follows:
Account type: POP
Description: jlsweden
Email Address: (my email account)
Full Name: (my name)
Incoming Mail Server: mailin.telia.com
User Name: (my email)
Password: (email password)
Outgoing Mail Server: mailout.telia.com
The port setting is 995. The Use SSL is checked and the Authentication is password. I'm not sure what else to do.

Hi jlsweden, and a warm welcome to the forums!
First, Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move these +folder & file+ to the Desktop.
Move this Folder to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/
Move this file to the Desktop...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
Reboot.

Mail shuts down and opens again... over and over and over...

My mail program shuts down and then automatically re-opens itself.
Even if I force quit, the mail program just starts up again.
This happens over and over again. The only solution is to reboot.
However, after a number of hours of usage, this problem repeats itself.
Does this sound like a virus? Or, an error in the program?
Has anyone else ever experienced this?
If so, any way to repair it?
Thanks!

You probably have a piece of software (e.g. a Dashboard widget or a system utility) that requires Mail to be running for whatever it does.

Photoshop CS3 shuts down after opening a PSD file with layers

Hello, I have met a problem with Photoshop CS3 (Windows XP SP2, no network printer) - after opening a PSD file with layers (saved with CS2) Photoshop shuts down. No error message.
Can some of you help me? (The only software that I have installed after Creative Suite CS3 is Corel X4. I have installed no upgrades of CS3.)

You should!
Even if it doesn't help here you should.

Can't shut down after opening Java Control Panel

Hello,
I'm just a regular guy with Windows ME and since I installed JRE 1.4.2_02 (for Mozilla 1.5), I can't shut down my pc after opening the Java Control Panel. Javaw.exe stays in memory (Norton System Information) even after the JCP has been closed. This was not an issue with 1.4.1 beta which I used for a long time. Then I could open the JCP applet and make adjustments (minor, just whether or not I wanted it to be able to cache applets etc.) then I would close it and nothing interfered with shutdown.
I have even tried Enditall2 and Sysinternals Process Explorer's close and kill functions and neither can close or kill Javaw.exe.
I have very little running in the background and never had shutdown issues until installing JRE 1.4.2_02 and it works fine other than this issue with JCP and shutdown.
Thankyou for any advice.

Gave up, went back to 1.4.1_05, shutdown problem solved.
Disappointed but at least Java works okay and I can adjust things in JCP applet without having to do the three finger salute twice each time. No more Javaw in memory when I close the applet.
Played with Java Web Start's demos, seem to work fine, I guess. Really don't understand what JWS is for, not for us non-programmers?

Itunes keep shutting down after opening

I have uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled and still after I open it and it is "Matching" with iTunes Store and boom it comes up with iTunes not responding and shuts me down. Where do I go from here? It is a Microsoft Windows box and it says "iTunes has stopped working" and then another box comes up and says iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. (It never does.....) Help..........

I'm having the same problem. I have upgraded to the latest version today, and it's still having the same problem, but worse. Now I have to close and reopen iTunes 2 or 3 times before it starts to work properly.

Adobe Illustrator CC immediate shut down after opening :(

I've had this problem since I got back to win 7 sp1 pro from win 8.1 pro. (im sure it doesnt happen cuz of this)
Illustrator CC v17.1 (64bit) opens and (crashes) closes really quickly so I cant do anything.
It happens when I open the program as well as when I open a .ai or .eps file.
Sometimes I get to keep it open by clicking the edit tab but then as soon as I leave that it closes.
It's driving me mad. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times (i mean deep uninstall with Revo Uninstaller) removing even registry entries and leftover folders. It is still the same ****. My drivers are all updated and win 7 updated with the latest updates.
Pc Configuration: (however, as far as I know the issue doesn't have to do with these specs)
2.3Ghz Intel i5
6 GB RAM
Intel Graphics 3000
Help Please. I have Illustrator licenced yet I cant use it.
Even when I try to install and leave trial version still the same.

fabiocimo,
Should I try the Cleaner Tool. Will it interfere to Photoshop and Dreamweaver installations?
It has been used countless times for cleaning up single applications, with no outcry about any real issues.
As far as I know, it will only interfere with files that are common to the uninstalled application and those still installed, and those files will be restored with the reinstallation.

Why does my mail shut down after a few seconds on the ipad

When I try to start mail on the screen it shows up for a second and then back again. Why?

Try rebooting the device. Press the home and power buttons until the Apple icon appears. Then let go.

ICal shuts down after opening.

I have been having trouble with ICal, since I moved my computer, and reset Mobile Me.
I tried the on line solution suggestion of moving the "helveticaNeue.dfont" to the desk top. This had no affect. Can this problem be affected by loading on Entourage.
Thanks JosephT

JosephT,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Here are a some questions for you:
1. How did you move your computer?
2. Did you move iCal data from an older system to a newer system?
3. Where did you find the suggestion to remove the "helveticaNeue.dfont?" To the best of my knowledge, problems may occur in some versions of iCal if this font is missing.
One of the first things to try is "refresh" the com.apple.iCal.plist file. You will find the com.apple.iCal.plist file in your Macintosh HD/Users/yourusername/Library/Preferences Folder. Quit iCal, drag the .plist file to your Desktop, log out/in or restart and check iCal for normal behavior.

Pse trial v12 installed but when opening the editor it shuts down after 2 seconds, what can be the problem? I have windows 8.1 64 bit with the latest video drivers installed. Thanks

PSE trial 12 installed just fine but when i start the editor it opens and shuts down after about 2 seconds without an error, the only thing that appears is a message with 'continue trial'.
I have windows 8.1 64 bit and i already installed the latest video drivers, intel hd 4000 and nvidia geforce 710M.
I also installed premiere elements version 12 with the same problem.
What can be the problem here, please help?
Thanks.
Wim.

Hi roberto-
Yes, its a shame. I have also contacted lenovo support hoping that they can sort out this problem. However, first response from them was 'contact your internet service provider since internet connectivity goes down'! :-/ I am hoping I have been able to get through to them now at least about where the problem lies. I wonder if anyone has tried using the laptop with the same broadcom wireless adapter with some other version of OS (linux, windows 7 etc.) and whether they still face the same problem. I haven't tried that yet. If this is just an OS / driver issue I hope someone somewhere is working on a fix! If not, I guess the only other solution would be to get an external USB wifi adapter but that is not something one would want to do when you buy a brand new Lenovo laptop. This was a big let down for me.
