TS2621 My Mail has frozen

My MAIL has frozen. No features work on the screen Tried removing and reinstalling email account but still the same. New emails are shown as having come in but won't respond. All other features on my IPAD work perfectly. Any ideas?

Close the Mail app in the Task Bar and re-launch.
Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar. Hold Mail app down for a second or two; tap the minus sign to close app.
If it still doesn't work, try a reset.
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

My Mail has frozen - can access my hotmail through Safari but Mail now has a blank rectangle on the screen and the inbox underneath it has not updated for 2 days

Mail giving problems. Small white rectangular box comes up on screen and inbox underneath has not updated for 2 days.
I can use Safari to get new messages but, since getting this laptop, when I go to Hotmail via Safari old messages self delete every so often, whereas via Mail messages stay in the inbox unless I actually delete them. Any suggestions?

Here is a photo of what I see when I tap on the mail icon to open it. It stays there for a second or two and then goes dark. Then I actually have to put my iPad into sleep mode in order to use it again. The app will NOT close no matter what I do, just shutting it down or put it in sleep and then restart it.
here is when I tap the mail icon. It looks like an empty page but you will see the format of the mail page. Next photo is what is see after a second. And the last photo is what I see before the iPad locks up or Les blank. I hope this makes things clearer as to what the problem is. Thanks for your help, hope this helps! Diane May.

My mail has frozen with basketball appearing. I think this is due to my attempt to send a home movie as an attachment. I need to delete the attachment but I get message that it cannot be deleted 'at this time'. The wheel has been revolving for two days.

I can work around by restarting my Mac but must not touch my mail where the message sits as a draft. I am unable to send mail.
Please how may I get rid of theemail and attachment?
Thanks

Back up all data.
Quit Mail if it's running. From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences ▹ Mail, Contacts & Calendars
Select your iCloud account in the list on the left and click the "-" button below to delete it from the list. Then click the "+" button and add the account.

Mail has frozen...

My .mac/me account hasn't received a new mail message since August 24th. I know this is inaccurate because in another program I have read new mail to that mac address. Any ideas as to what I need to do to fix the "Mail" program.
I also have other web address that I run through Mail and they are working just fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

HT4855 iMac mail open and mouse has frozen on screen, new batteries in mouse..no change. turning iMac off and back on ..no change. need advice asap

Imac mail open and mouse has frozen on screen...please advise?

The Mac uses an "All devices active" philosophy with pointing devices and keyboards.
If you have additional pointing devices attached, especially a graphics tablet, it is still directing mouse operations at the same time as the mouse you have your hand on. The end result is the SUM of commands from all such devices.

My e-mail screen has frozen showing the message "cannot download the attachment". Touching the "OK" button does nothing.

My Ipad e-mail screen has frozen while trying to download a photo attachment. An error message "cannot download attachment" is on the screen but touching "OK" does not clear it. Any suggestions please?

You can also Force close apps
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

This isn't the fault of firefox. Firefox is a web browser, not your email provider. I'd suggest contacting them (whoever you use, gmail, yahoo, etc.) and asking for help.

I have written an e-mail but the I pad has frozen I can't send it or cancel. Help?

To quit the app,
Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.

TS3276 My iPad mail screen has frozen when trying to trash an email

My iPad screen has frozen when trying to trash an email ' this message cannot be moved to mailbox trash ' with an OK button which will not respond to touching . I have gone in and out of mailbox , turned iPad off for 3 hours - all to no avail

You said that you keep getting the error code 1604. Did you try putting the iPad into recovery mode and when the error code appears - close iTunes and restart iTunes while the iPad is connected to your PC?
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

Unplug AND hit the power button, don't just let it sit.
And yes Apple has changed the tech article on SMC Reset at least 4X.
My link to an older version comes up "Not found" and the idea of keeping and revising seems to have hit the shredder instead.

You need your OEM DVD to invoke and use AHT. It isn't left on the hard drive after updates and reformatting and a enw OS.
DU Status isn't going to find every error with the directory or file system and maybe not with there being bad or weak sectors.
You could format a drive and do a clean install and rebuild from there.
And seeing you have "dual core" then you have 2.66 4-core 2006 and would suspect video card for one, heat and dust, failing DiMM. All reasons to monitor using Temperature Monitor or another app. And helps to actually list off the System Profile (sans ser #) what your hardware actually is, incl. 3rd party add ons and external devices.

How to repair Apple Mail's frozen 'send' button?

how to repair Apple Mail's frozen 'send' button?

More details on the particular "adjustments", please?
AFAIK, there's no documented to insinuate a change into an outbound SMTP message (if that's what you're up to here) within Apple Mail.
Most commonly, these sorts of header adjustments arise at an intermediate mail server. Usually spam filters have something similar.
If these particular "adjustments" are possible within Mail, then it's likely via the undocumented plugins API underneath Apple Mail. And, well, that API is not documented. And the plugins API has changed at various Apple Mail updates, too; it's clearly not a stable API.

Outgoing mail has completely died... Help...

Hey all,
This is the weirdest thing.
All my outgoing mail is frozen in the outbox.
Eventually I get the error message
"The server at mail.stevelevine.com cannot be contacted on any of the default ports.
Select a different outgoing mail server fromt he list below or try later to leave the message in your outbox until it can be sent."
Note that this has nothing to do with any of the outgoing servers. I have 6 or 7 on this mail system and the same is suddenly happening with all of them.
Tried quitting mail, rebooting, clearing everyone out of the outbox and trying again.
Two Notes:
Incoming mail is working fine on this MacBook.
Outgoing mail is working fine on my IMac, with all the same settings, internet connection etc.
Tried using a different internet connection and experienced the same thing.
I'm really good at this stuff, but I am completely stumped on this one.
Any ideas?
Steve

It's been almost three years since I bought and set up my most recent Mac but if I recall correctly .....
When you initially set up your Mac, you were offered the opportunity to snap a photo of yourself in order to associate your photo with your user account on the computer. If you declined the photo I think the Mac will pick or suggest a picture from the preinstalled selections in the accounts pane of the system preferences. You can change the picture but you cannot delete it totally. That picture is part of your ID for that user account on the Mac.
If you want to change it, Open System Preferences and click on accounts. Click on your account to change the picture. You will have to unlock the preference in the bottom left corner - and to do that - you need to enter your password. Click on the picture of the Eagle and then all of the preinstalled photo choices pop up in another window. Select another photo and then clcik the lock icon again when you are done.
