Safari Browser and Mail App cannot be opened.

After I turn off my iPod Touch and start up again, Safari browser and my Mail App crashes every time I open it. I tried to reboot the device again, and it did not work. I'm going to have to restore, but my question is:
What are the reasons for this? This has never happen to me before.
Replies appreciated.

Almost all the times things like that just happens and they seldom return. If i keeps recurring after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem.

I downloaded a reader file and it screwed up my Safari browser and the app opens with the Goggle Quick search which I can't get rid of

I downloaded a file to open a owners manual for a camera I needed. I had difficulty getting it down loaded and never could get the manual. I tried using my Safari browser and started getting this Goggle Quick Search file which opened in place of my Safari….I tried to close it and I can't. I did manage to get ride of the reader file.

You may have installed one of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
Back up all data before making any changes.
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates
if it's not already checked.

HT201210 safari and mail apps will not open

Hello, after I updated to 6.1.3 on my iphone 4 everything worked fine, till I rebooted my phone, now all of a sudden my safari and mail apps do not work. Anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Everytime I try and restore my iphone i get: The phone "Justin's Phone" could not be restored. This device isnt eligilbe for the requested build. I even reverted to my last saved back up (this back up was on June 13) and a back up from december 2012 and the safari and mail app still do not work. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you all for your help,
Justin

Hello Justin,
I would recommend taking a look at steps 4 and 5 in the article below.
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store

If your issues persist, then you may need to restore the iOS software.

Why is incoming mail server greyed out and unalterable and mail.app cannot get mail?

I haven't had any iCloud mail for 3 days now. I'm in the UK. When I look at the account settings the incoming mail server shows a greyed out 'p01-imap.mail.me.com'. I've looked at Apples support pages and try as I might I can't configure it as they say I should be able to! Is there a little plist file or something somewhere I need to delete so I can get this thing working again or is it an Apple problem? The UK support pages say iCloud is working. I'm running OSX 10.7.4 on alate 2009 iMac.

I realize that this is a double post, but the info may pertain,
the thread is a little different and may be otherwise missed.
Working with expresslane the issue I was bucked up
to sr. level - they found the problem is 's changeover
to icloud addresses has deleted my primary alternate
but verified email addy as it had an @me suffix. 
replaced this with @icloud but can't as of now restore
the recent mail to that address. I'm told that despite
my MobileMe membership, converted to iCloud, I'm
to lose all my @me and @mac addys. I'd thought they
were grandfathered for us but this may not be true. So,
the issue for me has been explained, though unresolved.
Advice: Beware, be very aware - if you have an old, and
more pretigious, @mac addy. For now, mine still works
but it's my ID so they may let me continue it (?).

Mail app quits when opened after installing Mavericks. I reinstalled and still the same. I noticed the mail app icon has not changed to the new icon in Mavericks. Any suggestions?

I also forgot to note that this problem also persists with the new iBooks application. I cannot get past the 'Get Started' screen or access the iBooks Store. Again, all top bar menus are unresponsive.

Safari and mail app not working on my iPod Touch 3rd generation.

I have an iPod touch 3rd generation and my safari and mail app won't work and it's driving me crazy! My safari app keeps crashing when I open it so that's not working, and my mail app opens up but doesnt load then crashes. Can somebody tell what to do?!!!

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Ipad 4 after update to IO8 Safari and Mail App would not start

I have updated my Apple Ipad 4 to IOS8.
Modell MD510FD/A
After this update Safari and Mail App do not start. It open the app a short time and closed by itself.
I have restarted the Ipad for 3 times. But the problem still happen.

Hi t.reiterer,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Since these are native apps that come with the OS, it sounds like a reinstall is in order. A full backup first, then restore.
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If a regular restore doesn't help. Try a restore as new.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
Again, make sure you have a good backup first.
Best Regards,
Nubz

You don't need iDVD unless you are going to make DVDs. If you are just trying to share files, iDVD won't help you at all.
What you want to do is in iMovie, choose File/Share/File, and export that way. It creates an .mp4 file that should be readable on Macs or Windows.
You could also File/Share/YouTube if you don't mind posting them to YouTube, because of course YouTube videos are watchable by any Mac or Windows computer made in the last 10 years.

I just updated Safari with version 5.1.10 and now I cannot use "open location". Anyone else having this problem and are there any solutions?

Ok ...
Try troubleshooting extensions and third party plugins.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test. If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.
If it's not an extensions issue, try troubleshooting third party plug-ins.
Back to Safari > Preferences. This time select the Security tab. Deselect: Allow all other plug-ins. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that made a difference, instructions for troubleshooting plugins here.

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect

Safari, Software Update and Mail apps won't connect to the Internet. Software Update fails with a suggestion of running Network Diagnostic. Network diagnostic says everything is fine. Firefox connects without any problems. Any ideas. This is my work computer and I need it to work.

Fixed it myself. Under network settings "Auto Proxy Discovery" was enabled. When I turned this off everything started working again. Not sure how this was enabled in the first place.

Changing Safari's default mail app...

Anybody know how to change Safari's default mail app??
I don't use Apple Mail, I prefer Entourage and I would love to have it as the default mail app in Safari. When I hit command + I or command + Shift + I , I want Entourage to open, not Mail. Is there any way to do this?
Methods that don't involve going under the bonnet (hood for you Americans) would be preferred.
...but if I must go under the bonnet/hood then I wouldn't mind setting the google bar to go to Google.co.uk not .com
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Gaberdine

Thanks Ferd II, that's fixed it. And it was painless
It never ocurred to me that I might set my default mail app from within Mail... because I never open it except for when Safari opened it by default (grrr).
I thought I might have to use a hack or Terminal (that's what I meant by going under the bonnet (hood)really) but it turns out to be so simple if you only know how - and that's the absolute joy of these forums.
I suspect changing the default localisation for the Google search bar in Safari would be more complex however...
Cheers,
Gaberdine
Edit: For anybody anybody else who sets Entourage as their default mail app; be aware that it doesn't permit mailing a whole webpage from Safari (Command + I) only the link to the page (Command + Shift + I). Try it and you'll get an alert recommending you use Apple Mail. lol

The font on my internet browser and mail has changed. How do I change it back to a standard font?

The font on my internet browser and mail has changed. How do I change it back to a standard font?

Assuming you're using Safari, with Safari running open Safari's Preferences (Preferences in the Safari menu). Go to the Appearance tab, and set the ones you want.
Assuming you're using Mail, open Mail's Preferences (Preferences in the Mail menu). Go to the Fonts & Colors tab, and set the ones you want.

Exchange and mail.app

Has anyone had this issue with a MS Exchange server? On a Mac I am able to send mail out to any email address using Outlook Web Access but using the same exchange server with a POP account and Mail.app I cannot send mail outside the school district(@af.k12.wi.us). When I try, I get "The message could not be appended to the Outbox".
Is this a problem with the Exchange server setup or Mail.app account? How do I fix it?

We also use Intermedia.net and I've yet to get mail.app and Exchange to work together. The KB and support offer very little more than what you see posted here already. The "Mail for Mac OSX" are not even close to being accurate for our dedicated hosting plan (we don't have mail.domain.com type names).
Mail.app doesn't give you much to go on either... I plug in the information and it just never connects or never goes online. If I open up the Activity window I see it try and connect but then just drops the connection. No failed password or other error message.
Anyone else have any experience with Intermedia or success with Exchange?
