Sys Pref panel "Mail Contacts Calendar" freezes

Sys Pref panel "Mail Contacts Calendar" completely freezes just by trying to open it. And I've discovered that If I remove my gmail account (from the mail.app) It works again. I've made 2 clean installs of Mountain lion and the problem stays.
If it helps I have set up icloud, twitter, facebook, gmail and my gmail adress is the same that I use for icloud as apple id.
Has anybody any idea.
Thanks.

This was happening to me too. I deleted the MobileMeAccount.plist file in my user's Library/Preferences folder and the Preferences window now loads and responds to input properly.

  • Mail contacts calendars option freezes in settings list

    For no reason whatsoever, my Exchange Server mail stopped syncing with my iPad2 yesterday.  When I go to Settings, "Mail Contacts Calendars", the line highlights but then just freezes right there and I can never get into those settings (eventually the iPad just takes me back the home screen).  I did a soft reset, then a hard reset with restore (same problem), and now I am doing a hard reset with no restore (basically wiping the unit clean, which is such a pain in the a$$ to get all of my apps back into the appropriate folders that I've created).  Any reason why this happened?  Any way to fix it in the future?  I have an iPhone 3GS and the mail was still working fine with it.  No changes were made on the server or on the iPad2 (I own the company and know that no one did any changes yesterday).  It happened just out of the blue.  Thoughts?  Thanks.

    I have been experiencing some major sync/push problems with mail, contacts and calendar between my Mac, iphone and ipad for over a month now. The problems are still being investigated by Apples technicians.
    However, a couple of days ago I set up a new iCloud account, whilst my original one is currently being investigated and is practically useless.
    The new iCloud account works fine. All devices sync properly and I can create, edit and delete entries from all devices.
    This is clearly an iCloud issue. I was initially suspected of causing the problem. I am now in the clear. If your email is of no consequence I suggest setting up a new iCloud account. Mine is important so I am waiting for Apple to reset my original iCloud account so that I can use it again.
    Since setting up the new account my ipad works fine and no longer freezes in settings.
    Result. Hope it works for you.

  • ICloud & Mail,Contacts,& Calendars Preference Panels?

    I have both an iCloud Preference Panel and a Preference Panel named Mail, Contacts, & Calendars.
    Shouldn't the Mail, Contacts, & Calendars Preference Panel (which has checkboxes for Mail and Notes) have been replaced by the iCloud Preference Panel?
    Could this duplication be why I can't get the Mail checkbox to stay checked in the iCloud Preference Panel?
    Thanks...

    They are different. Mail, Contacts and Calendars are for other accounts (Gmail, Hotmail...)

  • HT1694 My hotmail access disappeared from my iPad. When I go to settings and click 'mail, contacts, calendars' the page freezes. It doesn't allow me to the account setting. Anyone have suggestions?

    Your Settings app is crashing. Sometimes, the only way to fix this is by restoring the iOS software but hopefully it will not come to that.
    1. Quit the app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    2. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    3. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

  • Mail, Contacts, Calendar not available on iCloud Control Panel on my Win 7 PC for Outlook sync

    I have loaded iCloud Control Panel 4.0 on my PC (Win 7 64)
    The iCloud Drive, photos & Bookmarks is available to be switched on/off but Mail, Contacts, Calendar etc not available. Instead just a message on top that says you can access Mail, Contacts, Calendar, and Reminders at iCloud.com.
    How do I setup iCloud so that the Calendar & Contacts on my OUTLOOK 2010 are synced with my iPhone &iPad?

    Hey RuiEVG,
    Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines troubleshooting information for using iCloud contacts on a Windows PC. It may be that your version of Outlook is not supported:
    Get help using iCloud Contacts
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3998
    Check the system requirements
    Make sure that your PC meets the iCloud system requirements.
    iCloud Control Panel doesn't support Outlook 2010 Personal Edition.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Full Mail, Contact, Calendar synchronization with multiple devices, Possible?

    Looking for the best solution to keep my Mail, Contacts and Calendars in Sync.
    Hardware
    iMac, PC, MacBook, iPhone, iPad
    Software
    Lion, Hosted Exchange, IOS, iCloud
    I want to use Mac and my office requires a PC, whats the best way to stay in sync. Ive been partially successful at trying to sync my Hosted Exchange account with Mail, Contacts and iCal but it seems inconsistant.
    Can someone help me with the proper setting to get this to work?
    OR
    Do I need to load Outlook on my Mac and IOS devises?
    OR
    Is there another option?
    I have searched the forums and havent found a good solution detailed. Hope to correct that here.
    Thank you for your replies.

    I do this currently. If you look at my profile, you'll see my equipment. I also have a PC at work I use part time (for accounting only) set up as well.
    On the iPad and iPhone, set up your iCloud by going to Settings -> iCloud and entering your username and password. Choose to sync all.
    Set up your Hosted Exchange by going to Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Add Account... Choose Exchange as the option and enter the info.
    For iCloud on the Mac, click the Apple icon -> System Preferences -> iCloud. Then sign in.
    For Exchange on the Mac, click the Apple icon -> System Preferences -> Mail, Contacts, & Calendars -> Microsoft Exchange and enter the info.
    For iCloud on the PC, you must be running Outlook 2007 or 2010 and have downloaded the iCloud Control Panel. Sign in and choose to sync with Outlook.
    For Exchange on the PC, use Outlook. Add the account...

  • Cannot Connect to Google Calendar in Mail, Contacts & Calendars preferences

    I recently obtained a new Mac and am playing with Mountain Lion for the first time. I'm trying to add my Google Apps (custom domain, not @gmail.com) account to the Mail, Contacts & Calendars control panel. I was able to add Mail, Messages, and Notes without any issues, but it's refusing to connect to Calendars & Reminders. When I attempting connecting, it gives me an error...
    A secure connection couldn't be established.
    Click “Continue” to continue creating the account. You can edit the account later in Calendar preferences if necessary.
    So I click "Continue" to... well, continue. Eventually, I've given this error:
    There was a problem setting up the account.
    Calendar couldn't discover the account settings for the CalDAV server “google.com”.
    Just out of curiousity, I went into the Calendar app to directly add my Google account. Doing so also gives me an error:
    Server with Secure Communication Unavailable
    Your calendar account isn't on a server that can receive your calendar securely.
    If a server isn't secure, others may be able to view your calendar information. To continue searching for your account on servers that may not be secure, and then set up the account if it's found, click Continue.
    So I go ahead and click Continue. After waiting some more, I finally get the error...
    No CalDAV servers were found for "google.com".
    This message appears on the Account Settings sheet where you can add a CalDAV account. If I manually type in the Server Address here (https://www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user//www.google.com/calendar/dav/[email protected]/user), Calendar claims it still cannot connect to a secure connection. This time, clicking Continue does add the account. (I'm assuming through a non-secure conncetion.) If I try to edit the Account Settings, it takes me to the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars control panel where Calendars & Reminders for my Google account is now selected.
    I can only assume this is a weird bug with Mountain Lion, but needless to say, this is far from the "it just works" mentality I've been use to.
    This was not an issue with iCal on Snow Leopard, which is what I'm coming from.

    I was having similar issues and thought I would put down what solved my problem.
    In "Mail, Contacts & Calendars" I didn't choose "Gmail" I used "Add Oter Account…" as previously mentiond.
    Then I chose "Add a CalDav account"
    Under User Name: I entered my entire gmail address
    Under Password: I entered a new "Application Password" key as generated by Googles two step verification process.
    Under Server Address: I tried to use just "google.com" and "www.google.com" neither of these worked - only errors. So I used the address as listed on Google Calender when clicking on settings for my main calendar. There is a link that will give you your calendars private address. I shortened it to:
    www.google.com/calendar/ical/your_gmail_address_goes_here
    Then it worked immediately!

  • In system preferences iCloud, mail contacts calendar crash

    In system preferences icloud and mail, contacts, calendars crash, so I can't alter them.
    Mail seems to freeze and only way to restart is force quit and then it is fine till I think it updates with iCloud again and then won't shut down again unless force quit.

    Hi lynne168,
    If System Preferences or Mail are quitting unexpectedly, there are a few ways to isolate and resolve the issue.
    First, I'd recommend booting your computer into safe mode:
    Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1564
    If the applications are working normally in safe mode, this usually means OS X is fine, and the issue is caused by conflicting software in your user account.
    Next, see if your computer behaves normally in a new user accoun:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Create a new user account
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11468
    If the issue persists in safe mode and a new user, I would recommend reinstalling OS X:
    OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall OS X
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10763
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

  • Check SMTP SETTINGS:tap settings:mail, contacts, calendars: no respons, dead

    check SMTP SETTINGS (iPad1): tap settings: mail, contacts, calendars:  NO RESPONS! THE SCREEN FREEZES AND BLOCKS!!! I've aready done a hard reset but no actions when I tap settings: mail-contacts-calendars.  HELP !!

    Since two days ago, my battery indicator has been indicating 100% until the phone dies, which seems to be one of the symptoms you're describing.
    However, I don't use Push emails; my email client is configured to poll an imap server and has been that way since I got my phone over 6 months ago. To be on the safe side, I turned off Push anyway, but I'm still having the problem. Definitely 3.0 related as I've never had this problem before.
    Perhaps it's linked to an app? Personally I don't have a whole lot of them installed: Aurora Feint, fstream, twitterific, flixster, wikipanion, google earth, urbanspoon, STM Mobile, iDicto, Air Sharing, Facebook and Apple Remote. I've removed a few and will see how it goes.

  • Issue installing iCloud Mail/Contacts/Calendar

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new Computer. I tried to set up iCloud Mail, Contacts & Calendar, using the iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows. When I attempt to configure those Services in Outlook 2013, the iCloud Control Panel gives me an Error.
    I know that it is working with the iCloud Control Panel 2.1, so a Download Link would solve my issue.
    Error message: "Outlook does not have a default profile configured"
    Equipment:
    Microsoft Outlook 2013
    Windows 8.1
    iCloud Control Panel 3.1 for Windows
    Thanks for any help in advance.

    This explains how to view your Outlook profile(s), and if you have more than one profile, how to set one as your default: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook-help/turn-on-or-off-profile-prompt-HA1 01821056.aspx.
    At any rate, 2.1.3 and 3.1 are the only iCloud control panels available from Apple at this point.

  • Help, I can,t get mail contacts calendar to load in settings.

    My mail won't download. When I go to settings to check it the mail, contacts, calendar option won't load it seems to freeze on the previous option. Any ideas please

    Try to use the SearchReset extension to reset some preferences to the default values.
    *https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    Note that the SearchReset extension only runs once and then uninstalls automatically, so it won't show on the "Firefox > Add-ons" page (about:addons).

  • ICloud Mail, Contacts, Calendar & Tasks setup error

    I am trying to install iCloud on my PC (Windows 7 64 bit) and the installation seems to complete fine but after I restart and login and try to setup Mail, Contacts, Calendars and Tasks I get an error pop up on the screen saying the iCloud Control Panel Installation did not set up properly and that I need to repair it.  When I click on reports it shows this error:
    The iCloud Control Panel did not install properly. To repair it, you need to go to Programs and Features, select iCloud from the program list and click Change. When prompted, click on Repair.  <a href="repair">Open Programs and Features…</a>
    Error: 0x80004005: DataProviderRegistered
    Error: 0x80004005: ZebraMapiCopySession::CanCreateZebraStore: CreateMessageService failed
    Can someone please help me set this up successfully as I have been trying everything for a whole day now including repairing Outlook. There is no evidence that iCloud has been setup in Outlook before but it has previously so I know it can work together (I removed it some time ago when PhotoStream stopped updating).
    Any help would be fantastic, thank you!

    This drove me nuts for a week. I tried everything, uninstalling and reinstalling both Outlook and iCloud Control Panel multiple times. But today I finally fixed it and everything is syncing perfectly again! You need to shut down your PC and restart in SAFE MODE WITH NETWORKING (so repeatedly hit F8 when it is booting up and select that option). Once the PC has started in this mode, open up the iCloud control panel, select the Mail, Contacts Calendars and Tasks check box, click Apply, and hopefully it should work (as it did for me)! Good luck!
