Problem saving information about your mailboxes

My Mail account freezes when a message comes up saying 'There is a problem saving information about your mailboxes' .. it just scrolls saying 'it may take a while to determine the problem, .. should I just leave it to do this or is there anything else I can do to fix the problem?

Let the thing run in SBBOD paralysis mode for 3 hours. Up pops a message "kill Mail, will re-import all your messages on restart". Had to force quit to kill. Relaunch - by George it did so. Took forever. Fixed itself. Weird.

  • My 5 year old MacBook Air is telling me it "cannot save information about your mailboxes because there isn't enough space in your home folder.  Quit mail, delete files you don't need, then reopen mail."  What is "home folder," and which files to delete?

    The home folder is where all of your personal files are kept.
    Best candidates to delete are movies, videos, music and photos since they generally take the most space.
    Don't forget to empry the Trash after you delete the file because the space is not returned until the Trash is emptied.

    Hey louiseg45826294,
    Thank you for posting on Adobe forums.
    Could you please let me know what Adobe Writer program you are talking about. Is it Adobe Acrobat or Reader?
    Could you please share the screenshot of the exact error message that appears.
    Are the PDF forms saved on your computer's local drive?
    Hope to hear from you.

  • Genius can't complete "gathering information about your library"  Help!

    I am using iTunes 9. I have a 78 GB music library on a network attached drive (it is where my iTunes folder is). iTunes works fine but I cannot turn on Genius. When I try, the status bar opens and it says "gathering information about your library". The status bar fills up about 20% and then I get the spinning beachball. It sits there until I force quit iTunes (which is characterized as "not responding").
    I have combed the discussion board to see what other people have done. Here's one thing I tried: quit itunes; went to home folder, then library, then preferences; deleted "com.apple.iTunes.plist"; went to itunes folder and deleted "itunes library extras.itdb" and "itunes library genius.itdb"; emptied trash; restarted iTunes. This did not work.
    Does anyone have any other ideas? It looks like the Genius process is getting hung up on something, but I cannot figure out what. Thanks in advance!

    Either go to ~/Library/Cookies and delete the file Cookies.plist
    Or, if you don't want to delete all your Cookies, delete the relevant Apple cookies from Safari. To do so, quit iTunes, go to Safari and select Preferences -> Security -> Show Cookies. In the search text box enter apple.com. Select all of these files and click to Remove.
    I did the first option and Genius worked fine afterwards.

  • HT204406 iTunes match is stuck on Step 1: Gathering Information about your iTunes Library

    iTunes match is stuck on Step 1: Gathering Information about your iTunes Library.
    It will not progress past step 1.
    I have tryed re-installing iTunes, resetting everything and all that. No luck in getting it to work.
    Any suggestions on how I get it to work?

    Hi..
    "A status indicator will allow you to track progress. You may also manually pause and resume iTunes at any time by clicking the Stop or Start button."
    From here >  iTunes Store: Troubleshooting iTunes Match
    Can you click the Start button?
    Sounds like the internet connection is timing out.
    Try turning off your router for a few minutes, then turn it back on. Restart your Mac, launch iTunes and try again.

  • ITunes Match unable to complete "Gathering information about your iTunes library."

    All week I have been trying to get 2 separate iTunes accounts on 2  different Macbook on Air's both running iTunes 11.3.1(2) on Mavericks 10.9.5 - the progress bar crawls along and never actually reaches the end. Both iTunes Match accounts are completely empty (i.e. show zero media available on connected iOS devices). I have signed in and out of iTunes Match, deleted the libraries and re-added them etc. but the scan just isn't working.
    So, is iTunes Match being discontinued ahead of the announcements on 9/9 or is this a temporary glitch, or something thats just local to Spain?

    I'm having the exact same issue on a fresh windows 7 install...pretty annoying. After a few minutes of Genius in iTunes 9.0.2 gathering information about my music library my PC crashes and turns off. This is the only issue my computer has...help?

  • Are you able to regain information about your password if forgotten by email instead of resetting your phone?

    I just put in a password but I just lost the information on what the password was. I need help because I just got this phone for Xmas. Is anyone else having they same trouble or have gone through what I have to deal with right now? Any help will do. Is there a possibility of asking Apple for a reset link by email? I do not want to reset my phone because much information is on here and there is no backup.

    Apple does not have your passcode for the phone.
    You will have to do a restore.

  • Genius stuck on "Gathering information about your libarary..."

    I downloaded the new iTunes the day it was released and turned on Genius. My computer rebooted during the initial Genius setup and since then it has not gotten passed step 1. I have let it sit for over 2 days and it does nothing but finish gathering the information and then stop. If anyone can help me I would greatly appreciate it as Apple seems to be doing nothing.

  • A JavaBean that gives information about a job - saving parameter problem

    Hi,
    I'm working on a Java-Applet that gives the user some information about the running job.
    I modified a solution from Casey Bowden (thx to him) that lanches a seperate applet, from the current forms session, to update the user on the status of the report. It works great but I have one more problem.
    If the Report getting an error, the programmer and organisator would like to replicate the error so it would be comfortable to see how the report get started. There is the RW_SERVER_JOB_QUEUE table that saves all the information the Report Server posts its information about the current report to the database each time a job request is submitted. I'm saving some information from the rw_server_job_queue in a seperate table with other specific information for our own administration.
    The only information that I don't get are the parameters the report getting started. I would like to save all parameters in one column like the command_line in RW_SERVER_JOB_QUEUE table each time a job request is submitted. Is there any solution to get the parameters from the starting report?
    I'm working with Oracle Forms 6i and Reports 6i.
    Thx for any help.

  • "Mail cannot access your mailbox information because it's already in use. Rebuild Mailbox information    Quit"  Both quits Mail.

    After installing Yosemite, my Mail stops working after about 20-30 seconds when this Dialog Box pops up, freezes Mail and says:
    "Mail cannot access your mailbox information because it’s already in use.
    Another application on your computer or on your local network is using your mailbox information. Click Quit to quit Mail. Then log out of this computer and any other computer you’re using. After you log in again, open Mail on one computer only. 
    If this message reappears, there may be a network server problem. Contact your system administrator to determine if it can be resolved by rebuilding your mailbox information. Then click Rebuild Mailbox Information.
    If this message reappears, there may be a network server problem. Contact your system administrator to determine if it can be resolved by rebuilding your mailbox information. Then click Rebuild Mailbox Information.
    Rebuild Mailbox information    Quit" 
    Clicking on either one quits Mail. I am receiving my emails. I can even send my self a test email and receive it before it freezes up in 20-30 seconds. My ISP thinks it's a "Kernal" software problem.
    Through advice by a friend, I have tried:
    Applications - Utililities - Disk Utilities -  and selected my hard drive and then click Repair Permissions
    Rebooted a bunch of times. The first time Repair Permissions printed a few pages of stuff. The 2nd, 3rd and 4th times, it printed out this:
    Repairing permissions for “Macintosh HD”User differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; user is 244.Group differs on “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”; should be 0; group is 244.Repaired “private/var/db/displaypolicyd”
    Permissions repair complete
    But I still have the same problem I stated the the beginning of this:(
    Any more advice?

    I have the exact same issue, just after installing Yosemite.  Please advise
