Stuck Email in Hub - Cannot be Deleted or Read

Today, I received, what appears to be, a duplicate of an email; although, I cannot open it nor can I delete it. I restarted the hub and the phone as well - no luck.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've had this happen occasionally. Often the only way to get rid of it is to remove the email account and re-add it. I have no idea what causes it.

Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading: FaceTime Password Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name" Never used FaceTime.

Dear Community,
Anyone besides me get an annoying popup that cannot be deleted/closed reading:
FaceTime Password
Please enter your password for "my e-mail account name"
It happened to me today for the first time since upgrading to Mavericks 10.9.3, no "stop lights" in the title bar of the popup, in fact nothing at all.
I've never established a FaceTime account. So I tried to delete FaceTime from the Applications folder on the "system" disk thinking this may eliminate the popup. Mavericks informed me "Cannot delete FaceTime as it is used by the operating system.
Is this a MAC virus? Or is this an example user community alpha/beta testing that Apple just announced?
TIA,
GonzoBernelli

That being the case, why then did the FaceTime popup even appear in the first place?
It's not clear to me what it is. If it occurs again, please take a screenshot of the popup and post it in a reply.
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
The screenshot attachment option for this support site appears only on computers - not on iPads.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

STUCK email. How to delete it?

I have a completely STUCK email. I cannot delete it even though I did so in the outbox. It remains on my screen minimised or enlarged but has lost the red button for deletion. Apparently I listed too many recipients. How can I get rid of it?

Back up all data. Rebuild the mailbox. Try to delete the message again.

Just opened an email attachment and cannot cloe or return to my emails.

Just opened an attachment in my email and cannot close the image and return to email. Any feedback is welcome.

The email is a scam. Delete it.

Why are there 4 x emails that I CANNOT delete?

Hi lovely people.
Whilst pruning the emails in my Mail boxes I found 4 x emails that I CANNOT delete. They're grayed/ghosted and no matter what I do to get rid of them (according to the useless Mail Help anyway) those emails have stuck like glue! OMG why?

Not certain, but this can fix myriad Mail problems...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, then move this 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.
If that doesn't do it and you can afford to redo all your Rules, try these & reboot...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/MessageRules.plist.backup
Note, in 10.5 & up /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail/ may or may not exist.

HT1430 I can't delete 2 email messages. All others delete properly, however 2 will not delete no matter what I try. A pop up message comes up and says "cannot not delete"

I can't delete 2 email messages that I received on the same day from one of my email accts. I have **** down the device and reset the device with no resolution to the problem. I can forward these two messages to our other acct and it will delete from there but returns to my personal email again, repeatedly. All other messages that I have deleted from my acct delete properly. I get a pop up indicating that " the message cannot be deleted". How do I fix this?

Delete the mail account and setup again.

Email Titles without bodies that cannot be deleted

Salam,
On my Mail I have a folder under "On My Mac" that has three email messages. The problem with these emails is the following:
1. I cannot see the body of the message... it shows blank.
2. I cannot even delete these emails... it just turns gray but never deleted. And once I restart Mail it turns back to black.
None of these three emails has attachments, HTML or can have viruses as they are invoices from three different software companies for Emailchemy, SyncMate and 1Password.
What shall I do?
Thank you in advance

Usually this condition and resolution means the messages had actually meant to be deleted (or moved to another mailbox), but the list of messages still contained a flawed reference. Rebuild would not cause the loss of actual messages still present in the mailbox folder, btw.

Can you use lower case in other files? If not, then go to the far right of the tool options and click the little four-lined square and choose Reset Tool.

Why do I periodically have emails that cannot be deleted?

I have a few emails that cannot be deleted and show up with an old date. How can I get rid of them?

I assume that they are dated something like 31/12/1969 ?
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.
Also do 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.

Cannot synch deleted emails no matter what I try

I cannot synch deleted emails on either of 2 personal accounts, nor the integrated account. My current company does not have BES. I have verified all the settings to synch deleted email on both the device and accessing my BB account on on internet. According to Doc. ID KB13509, I should be able to do this with MSN email and my work email (IMAP). I have had both the warranty centers at AT&T and AT&T referred to BB service support try to do this, and they all say my settings should be work but still no success. Between the 2 accounts I receive about 150 - 200 emails a day, so if this doesn't synch with my laptop emails (using outlook 2007) I am sunk. My outlook is synch'd with the mail servers and that works fine.
Only 2 brute force solutions come to mind, delete all accounts and activate once a week, or try to synchronize from laptop outlook on a daily basis, both of which are really not acceptable since I travel a lot and find this extremely burdensome. Please help

Greetings, and welcome to the BlackBerry.com Support Forums.
This should work to delete your emails from the server, when deleted from the BB.
Have you checked your settings at your BIS carrier login to "synchronize deleted messages between handheld and server"?
Are you also trying to sync those deletes to Outlook?

Some emails cannot be deleted

Some of my emails cannot be deleted ?

That has been my experience, also Demo...happens on my iPhone and iPad, but I have not paid attention to the dating. My experience has been that almost everytime I do a large amount of deleting, maybe need to note just how many or how many are left and see if there is a correlation, I get some "empty" emails appearing that I cannot delete. When that happens, I quit Mail, and then when I reopen Mail there is a full complement of emails present. Emails have been pulled in from those not being displayed due to the limit on number displayed that I am using.
My experience may not be the generic answer...it is the way this has been working for me, so whatever that is worth.
I haven't gone through the process you describe of reset, since the quit/restart has worked.
Obviously this is an "undcoumented feature" of Mail
Do you know if anyone has filed a bug report with Apple on this? Seems like an appropriate thing to do under the circumstances.
