My Thunderbird email is not responding. I have been unable to open it.

I tried rebooting my PC several times, but the result is the same. None of my mailboxes or address book can be utilized. The page is blank and says that Thunderbird is not responding. How can I get this to work again? All of my other programs are working correctly so it must be a problem with Thunderbird only.

Worse yet, mine were installed from DVD and it won't let me upgrade because it claimes it's tied to another account.  So, like you, I can't buy or upgrade my iPhoto leaving me dead in the water because I have mistakenly upgraded Aperture so my library is now incompatible!
I see reports that Apple has corrected this issue for some, but it's not for us.

  • For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any  choice. Any ideas?

    For the last 10 days I have been unable to open the Mail account on my eMac (MacOS10.4.11). When I click on the icon in the Dock the only option I get is "Force quit" and the main Mail bar will not open any  choice. Any ideas?

    You can setup Mail for iCloud on the eMac.
    Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
    I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
    You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
    iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
    On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
    IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
    • Server name: imap.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 993
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
    • Password: Your iCloud password
    SMTP (outgoing mail server) information:
    • Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
    • SSL Required: Yes
    • Port: 587
    • SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
    • Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)

    i updated my ipod the other day and since i have been unable to open any apps that connect to the internet, its says "operation could not be completed. invalid argument". anybody help please?

    Have yu tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset the iPod:
    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.
    Restore the iPod via iTunes,  First from backup and if problems persist, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    I am having this same problem. I took Kappy advice on restarting the Apple Mobile Device Service, however that did not work. I got this message in a pop up window that came up immediately.
    Windows could not start the Apple Mobil Device Service on local computer.
    Error 1053  The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
    I have already uninstalled itunes, all the related programs and I cannot reinstall, this Apple Mobil Device message stops the install.
    Can anyone please help?

  • I run windows 7.  Since updating itunes, I have been unable to open itunes.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled, and have chosen to run a administrator.  Itunes icon now displays a shield with yellow

    I run windows 7.  Have been unable to open itunes since updating last week.  I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled, and have checked run as administrator, but still can no open.  I notice that there is now a shield with yellow and blue squares next to it, that i do not think were there before.

    many thanks, Mary.
    The ModName is ituneup.dll; the modver is 1.0.7.0.
    Do you have the TuneUp plugin installed for your iTunes? If so, I think your copy is causing the issue here. Try the following document:
    iTunes: Troubleshooting issues with third-party iTunes plug-ins
    ... does that help with the launch errors?

  • After the ios7 update I have been unable to open the i-tunes store on my i-phone5, it basically flashes up for two seconds and then closes itself down, anyone else had anything similar and no a fix?

    Since updating to ios7.0.2 on my i-phone5 I have been unable to open the i-tunes store app, basically it just opens for a second or two then shuts itself down, I've tried a soft reset, turning on and off, closing down all running apps but nothing seems to work, anyone else had the same problem and no how to fix it?

    Hey there Fistycuff,
    It sounds like iTunes launches for a split second, then quits unexpectedly.
    I would recommend a few things for this issue. First, close all the running apps on the phone:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    When you have done that, sign out of your iTunes account in Settings > iTunes and App stores, and restart the phone:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists, I would next backup your device to iTunes, and restore it:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities
    Regards,

  • I have been unable to open pdfs, screen is black

    I recently got a new MacBook Pro and I have been unable to open pdfs from the internet, the screen becomes black after I trust the website. What's up with that?

    Try downloading any free app (you can delete it later).  This will re-authorize the iTunes account on your phone and will often fix this issue.

    I have downloaded a few ibooks (epub files) but have been unable to open them to read them. Any hints?

    iBooks, as it says in the iTunes Store, are readable only on iOS devices; the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. They cannot be read on your computer.
    Regards.

  • Ever since my upgrade to ios6 I have been unable to open my work email  which is through google.  Any suggestions?

    Ever since I upgraded my iPad to IOS6, I have been unable to get into my work email, which is through Google.  No problems before update.

    Downgrading to an older iOS version is not supported on iOS devices.
    Make sure that you have downloaded all of the updates for your apps and see if that helps.
    Try this as well. if the Apple apps are working OK and it is the third party App Store apps that are crashing - try downloading another app - any free app. See if that helps.
    You said that you reset the iPad but you may have to restore your iPad to factory settings and then to a backup if you can't resolve the problem.

    Mark I have an Adobe reader and in the last few days I have been unable to download e mail attachments

    What is your operating system?

    What is your Adobe Reader version?
    What means "unable" - how do you try downloading attachments, and what exactly happens when you try?

  • After downloading Firefox onto my pc I have been unable to open my AOL. Saw online that others have had this problem. Can it be resolved? If not I need to remove Firefox.

    I was having trouble with downloads on Explorer and in the process of resolving the issue with Microsoft support over the phone we tested the solution by downloading itunes and firefox. That was two days ago and I have not been able to open my AOL from the icon on my screen. Explorer is ok and I can access AOL through that search engine. I read online that others have had the same problem after downloading Firefox.
