When I click on the mail icon on my iPad 2 the mail accounts do not show up.

iPad 2 32GB Version 8.1.1
When I click on the Mail icon, the mail accounts do not appear. The screen is blank except in the he upper right corner of the screen I can see mini icons: flag, folder, file box, arrow, and pad/pencil mini icon.
I've been having a number of issues with Facebook ever since I upgraded to Version 8, so I don't know if this is a version issue or something else.
I've tried rebooting/restarting, etc. Nada.
I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks.

Close all apps and then reset the iPad. If that does work, reset all settings.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Reset all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings. You will not lose any data, but most of the device settings will have to be entered in the settings app again.
FWIW, I don't use Facebook at all, the app or in a browser, but I have read more that a few posts here where people that use the app all the time claim that is very buggy and causes all sorts of problems for them. Maybe closing the app along with the reset will help.

  • HT4946 iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences.   It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

    iTunes shows I have an encrypted backup under preferences.   It's got the pad lock. When I click restore the encrypted backup is not an option. I've been test MDM products and may have caused this. How do I restore the encrypted backup.

    I just came here today to ask the same question.
    I have an iPod Gen2 with version 4.2.1 iOS, and iTunes 11.0.2.26
    My iPod Touch was running sluggish so I backed up and selected the "Encrypt local backup" to "back up account passwords used on my iPod".
    I selected a password for this backup and restored my iPod Touch.
    When I went to restore from backup, that encrypted backup is not available on the drop down list.
    However, if I go to the top of ITunes and click "Edit", "Preferences" "Device", it shows the back up with the pad lock on it.
    I thought I was being smart backing up with encryption to back up account passwords, but now I have lost everything.
    So many people have the issue where it asks for a password when they never told iTunes to do an encrypted backup and here we are with an encrypted backup, and we know the password, but we don't get the option to restore from it.

  • I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar.  WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address.  How do I engage the  contact list from the email?

    I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email.  When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced.  How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

    With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
    In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
    That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
    Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

  • Why when i buy books on my ipad, when i log onto the store it does not show that i have purchased them?

    Why when i buy books on my ipad, when i log onto the store it does not show that i have purchased them?
    how many books and songs were therefore lost when i had to wipe my ipad?
    this is SHOCKING from Apple... this is not in my domain of settings!!!

    In the iBooks application on the Mac, there is a checkbox to sync highlights and notes across devices. 
    I don't see a similar setting in the iBooks app on my iPad.  It may require iBooks on the Mac as a mediator.
    Also:
    Can I highlight text and make notes?
    Yes, iBooks includes built-in Highlight and Note features. Highlight any word or passage of text within a book. You can also create a Note from your highlighted selection. Review your Highlights and Notes by tapping the Table of Contents button and then tapping Bookmarks. Highlights and Notes appear in their own section under Bookmarks. 

  • HT4314 When I click on the Me account nothing happens

  • When I click on the + sign, I do not get another tab even though an additional tab WILL open if, for example, I click on a link in an e-mail or on a site.

    Before the latest upgrade, I could open a new tab by clicking on the + to the right of any open tabs. No more. Nothing happens. If I click on a link in an e-mail or on a website, however, a new tab will open. For example, if I get an e-mail from Facebook that says someone has posted and I click the link, I will get a new tab opened and Facebook will be there. Then I have both tabs open and can navigate on either with no problem. If I then click on the + sign, nothing at all happens. I am perfectly able to open Safari with Firefox running, and I can get multiple tabs going there with no effect on Firefox. That is, I can go back and forth.
    I am grateful for any help! Thank you.

  • When I click on my mail account it automatically opens a a message.  How do I set it to display my inbox?

    Help!  When I open my mail account it automatically opens to a message(often an old one) instead of displaying my inbox with a list of 10 or 25 recent messages.  I have clicked that option in the settings.  How do I change this?

    Quit the mail app then reset your iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart.
    Also, when looking at the list of your emails that have already been delivered tap and pull down on that list then let go. This asked the Mail app to check again.

    Even I got annoyed due to this stupid thing ,
    Let me share you how i worked around this ,
    (1)Once you copied the table from Excel or Open office Calc, to thunderbird mail , It will appear the table with dotted line.
    (2)Now you have to double click in any single cell it will prompt the ‘Table properties’ box .
    (3)Now click on ‘Table ’ tab and under ‘Borders and Spacing’ Section set ‘Border’ ‘1’ instead of ‘0 ‘
    That’s it ... it will show you the border lines of table copied from source file 

  • Mail accounts are not showing up in Mail

    I recently migrated my 2011 MBP to a 2013 MBP.  I had Mavericks installed on both computers.  Everything works fine except that I can't add other mail accounts.  I put in my primary email (a GoDaddy account) and my local cable account (Time Warner).  When I added my Exchange, iCloud, and Gmail accounts, I do not get any inboxes for them in Apple Mail.  I deleted all the accounts, added them back through either mail prefs or accounts, I deleted plist, I restarted in safe mode and ran diagnostics, yada yada.  I only get my GoDaddy and Time Warner inboxes eventhough the accounts pane in system prefs says they're all there.  Interestingly, I do get calendar information from my exchange account.  Also, these mailboxes are still working perfectly fine on my older laptop.  Any ideas?

    Hi troxelweb,
    This is occurring because the 'Administrators' role does not have permission to 'Manage Email Accounts'. If you're able to, log into the admin console > Site Settings > User Roles > Administrators > Permissions, and assign 'Manage Email Accounts' to this role.
    If you can't update the permissions, let me know and I will do this on your behalf.

  • Seeing multiple iPhoto libraries when I click on the iPhoto icon in the dock?

    I can't figure out why I am seeing multiple iPhoto libraries when I click on the iPhoto icon in my dock.  I am running Lion on an early 2008 MacBook Pro (4 GB RAM), and when I click and hold on the iPhoto icon in the dock, it brings up a dialog box.  From top to bottom, this is what I see:
    iPhoto Library
    iPhoto LIbrary
    iPhoto Library
    Options
    Show Recents
    Open
    I can't figure out why it shows three iPhoto libraries when I only have one on my computer.  I've tried deleting the icon from the dock and then putting it back in the dock, but it still shows three libraries for some reason.  If I search for iPhoto in spotlight search or in finder, it only shows one iPhoto (in the applications folder).  Any help on how to resolve this weird issue would be much appreciated!

    I have the same issue.  I see four iPhoto libraries when I right click on the iPhoto icon in the dock, but I only actually have two libraries.  The other two simply do not exist on my computer.  And when I click on the libraries that do not exist, obviously nothing happens.  In the image, only the bottom two libraries are actual photo libraries.  The top two do not exist.
    I have relaunched Finder, restarted the computer, and even restored the entire computer from my Time Machine backup.  Nothing changes.  No matter what I try, the non existent iPhoto libraries continue to be present when I right click the iPhoto icon in the dock.  BTW, there are only two iPhoto libraries in the pictures folder.
    This is very frustrating and annoying.

  • Update notification shows there are updates but when I click on the update option it shows a blank screen

    The update option on the app store shows a notification that I have 'n' numbers of updates but when I click on the update option it only shows a blank screen. Even after updating the apps individually from the purchased option, the update option still shows a blank screen instead of "All you applications are up to date". Please help.

    Many people are having this problem for the last couple of days. According to Fly150in another discussion, this will work.
    If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
    1. Go to App Store
    2. Select Purchased
    3. Select All
    4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
    5. Select update on the Apps
    This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store.
