Where is Apple Mail?

I just bought a used MacBook, and Apple Mail is not on it. And I don't have the start up disk. How can I download and install Apple Mail?

So Apple moves in mysterious ways. You can download iTunes and Safari, but not Mail. Hmmmm.
OK. I accept that. And thank you for the prompt response. I found the install disk, so I'm going to install it now. But I'm now curious about alternatives that you mentioned. Can you recommend a client that you like better than Mail? Never mind mentioning Eudora or any Microsoft product.

Where are apple mail attachment files stored in OS 10.9

I am trying to locate an attachment file from a recently deleted message. The message is no longer in my trash, so I can't access the file through Mail. In the past, there was usually an archived copy somewhere on my hard drive, but it seems to have moved in my most recent update of Mac OSX. It used to be in the Library folder in my user folder, but now there is no Library folder in that location. Where do I find these files?

Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Check the Mail folder/V2.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.

"Module not found" in Apple Mail

Hi all,
Many times when I edit a new message in Apple Mail, images do not appear after I drag them to the new email. Instead, a sentence appears. My System is in Spanish language and I haven't had the chance to see it in English but it is something like "Module not found".
This message, instead of attached images, appears randomly so it's very difficult for me to say why is this happening. It happens in some emails I receive so I have to ask them to send them over again. In some emails received with this problem, the images appear time after if I check them back again.
I deleted and added again my email accounts, but this didn't help. I use MobileMe and Gmail.
If someone in this forum can help me or has got a clue about this, is very frustrating as I'm a graphic designer and there are attached images in almost every email I send or receive.
Thanks a lot!

Hola Carola!
That's what I'm talking about! I work as a Graphic Designer and it's quite absurd how I can not appreciate the images my clients send me to show changes or reviews inside the email's body.. it's not just sending but reading the images the issue remains.
You like me (as many) don´t have enought time to reset or re-install the entire operative system (where the Apple mail is packaged) to fix such a basic problem.
Apple had closed other discussions like this one with no response.

Mountain Lion update crashing my "Apple Mail"

I just yesterday updated my relatively new MacBook Pro I have owned for 7-months from Lion to Mountain Lion. In the last 24-hours, my Apple Mail has crashed after installing Mountain Lion. Clearly, we have a serious bug in the Mountain Lion. I have sent each crash report to Apple and am confident they will jump on this and patch it quickly ( I hope !!!).
I am wondering if anyone else has found bugs similair to mine where you "Apple Mail" crashes for no reason after you have upgraded to Mountain Lion. Please share with me your experience.
I am also interested in any other bugs you have discovered in Mountain Lion. Lastly, please remember to report any and all crashes to Apple so they can get ontop of these bugs.
PS: Dispite my crashes on Apple Mountain Lion, there are many cool features I like about it. Meaning, I am not here lambasting Apple's Mountain Lion. This is all part of the process of releasing new software. Rarely, are they released 100% perfect and they end up relying on users like us to help them ferret out the many little bugs that need to be identified and squashed.
Have a good day!
Dusty

Miraculously, the post below about Lion works for Mountain Lion as well.

macmrjohn Re: Mail 5 (OSX Lion) does not work after mailbox migration Dec 15, 2011 1:43 PM (in response to Alejandro M. Ramallo) This same thing happened today when migrating a friend's laptop. THE SOLUTION: Inside the Library folder (Lion hides this folder now, so hold down the option key and use the Go menu in the finder — Library will appear in the menu. Go there.) you'll find the Mail folder. Inside the mail folder was another folder called V2. I simply took the contents of V2 and dragged them to the parent folder (Mail). When I launched mail again, everything was back to normal. As Apple says, "It's that simple!"

Apple Mail client app (version 8.0) using 100%+ of CPU upon using mail drop (13" R-MBP running Yosemite 10.10)

Hello Support Community,
I am having quite the interesting issue. I have read plenty of reports where users' Apple Mail app is using 100% of CPU. This did not start for me until I went to go use the new mail drop feature in Yosemite. I am running Yosemite (10.10) on my 13" Retina - MacBook Pro (flash storage, 8GB RAM, 2.4 dual-core Intel i5) and my Apple mail is version 8.0. I have tried 3 different mail services (2 gmail accounts and iCloud), all result in the same issue. I have also done a complete erase of the hard disk and a brand new install of Yosemite, the issue persists.
As previously stated my mail app is using 100% upon, and only while, using the mail drop feature. If I force quit the mail app and allow it a minute, the mail app returns to using less than 1% of the CPU and the app and entire system resume normal function. Upon attempting to resend the same message that is placed in my outbox the CPU usage jumps to 50-80%. After a few seconds, the CPU usage will sometimes jump higher than 100%, ranging from 130% - 199%. All of these observations were made using Activity Monitor. Of course you can see my frustration, an app using this much CPU stops every process my Mac is doing (using safari, messages, iTunes etc.) - the whole computer locks up. Even force quitting is a difficult process to attempt.
Does anyone have a fix for this? I am at a loss and have no idea what to do. I am a pretty tech savvy guy and have tried everything that I would've thought would fix this. Is there anyway this could be a hardware issue? I don't think so but... all possibilities need to be taken into consideration, even though that one seems outlandish. Upon creating a new user account with a separate user library (but same system library) I figured the OS was the problem. I can't narrow it down to being a specific mail provider, and it can't be my OS since I have now erased and reinstalled 10.10 twice. Thank you!

I have this same issue. It has been driving me insane, Mac Mail uses 100% CPU most of the time I use it, after every time I open the machine, or after a sleep or even mostly after a screen saver has locked me out. It normally settles down after 5-15 minutes, but then happens every time again. It is killing my battery.

Where is the MailAccounts.plist stored for a network user account using Apple Mail on Snow Lion?

Where is the MailAccounts.plist file stored for a network user using Apple Mail on Snow Leopard? It appears one of my users has managed to do something to their mail account as Apple Mail will no longer close once opened and the Sent Folder has a perpetual spinning pinwheel.

They would have to be logged in as separate users in order not to see your account in Mail. Whatever accounts put in Mail under your account will show up. All mail accounts usually have there own user and password. The only thing you can do is to remove the password from Keychain and take the account offline so you don't keep getting prompts for passwords each time it checks for mail.
Not a great solution.
Best way is to give the other user their own user account with their own mail and enable fast user swithcing to log between the different users if all access the computer frequently.

Where are Inbox emails stored in Apple Mail?

I accidentally erased all the emails in my inbox in Apple Mail. However, a week before I did this, I backed up my hard drive (cloned it w/ Super Duper) to an external hard drive (called BackUp). When I boot up in BackUp, I can find my older 'inbox' emails in Mail. They are intact on this second HD.
I have not been able to import them using the Mail import function - mostly because I cannot find the Inbox folder (see below). I tried booting up in Backup, and using this path I got down to the folder where I thought the emails were stored: Library/Mail/POP-(my em address)/Inbox/Messages. I then copied the Messages folder, mailed it to myself and booted up on the internal hard drive. After retrieving the Messages folder from my email (which I thought contained the Inbox messages) I swapped it for the Messages folder on the internal hard drive. This did not change a thing.
So where are the Inbox messages stored? Or, is there an easier way to import my inbox emails from the BackUp hard drive?
Of course, I can simply forward each message via email from the BackUp drive and retrieve them in the internal drive, but then I lose subjects and the sender's name at the top of the email.
I'm using OS 10.6.8 on an intel iMac.

Thanks for your reply. You suggested some other avenues for me to pursue - namely, treat the emails as files....
Since the BackUp hard drive is bootable, if I have my iMac running on its internal HD, I cannot drag anything from the BackUp HD to the internal hard drive. I tried this: - while on the internal HD, i clicked on the mounted icon for BackUp, went to applications, clicked on mail, and Mail opened - but the Inbox that I saw was the relatively empty inbox that is on the internal drive. True, I did get a second Mail icon on the Dock with its light illuminated, but I cannot open the Mail program with the BackUp Hard Drive files.
I did try booting up to BackUp, I located the files in the Inbox folder that correspond to the emails in the Inbox, copied them to a new email and sent the .emlx files to myself. Logged back onto the internal drive, opened the email to myself, dragged the attachments (all those .emlx files) to the Inbox messages folder, and closed everything and reopened Mail. None of the emails that I copied showed up in the inbox - yet if i go to the Inbox messages folder, find the appropriate file and click on it, up comes the email that I want to appear in Mail's Inbox.

In Apple Mail I can no longer paste items where I need them.

In 10.9.5, all of a sudden in Apple Mail I can no longer paste items where I need them. Everything goes to the bottom of the mail being composed. What's happening?

if it's an appletv 1g then you should go to settings on your appletv and remove the bind with the computer
and then set it up again
if it's the small black appletv then you don't pair them from itunes you only use it as airplay speaker and the atv access the itunes shared lib

Gmail account IMAPed with Apple Mail. Apple Mail Inbox now empty! Where would the messages go?!?

I just synced up (IMAP) my Gmail account with Apple Mail. My apple mail inbox is now empty! Where would the messages go?!?

There is a better forum for issues with iCloud.
Apple has a couple tech note articles to help with email, and with gmail as well.
Try there.

You are not addressing Apple here.
This is a user to user forum, this is spelled out in the terms of service you agreed to when you joined.
There is no Apple server for your email.
servers are set up, used and maintained by whatever email service you use-such as rediffmail.
Go threaten them.
