Why does my email keep freezing my whole computer?

I use the email option for my laptop. The type of email I use, and I must for college, is outlook. At first, it worked great! Then, slowely, it started having a lot of problems. First, it would go really slow. Then, it would not load the mail at all. The last stage, sadly, was that it froze my ENTIRE computer. I would have to restart it, for the rainbow ring of death would keep spinning for minutes, to hours, and however long I would wait.
Is anyone having the same problem, and if so is there any way to resolve it?

Launch the Activity Monitor application.
Select All Processes from the menu in the toolbar of the Activity Monitor window, if not already selected. Enter "ocspd" (without the quotes) in the "Filter" text field. Is a process with that name listed?
If not, back up all data, then triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
/var/db/crls
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Move all the files in the folder that opens to the Trash. You’ll be prompted for your administrator password. Reboot, empty the Trash, and test.

  • HT4623 Why does my ipad3 keep freezing up?

    Why does my ipad3 keep freezing up after the latest version was installed?

    It might or your system may be low on RAM. Open Activity Monitor (Applications - Utilities - Activity Monitor) while operating the computer normally. Then click the System Memory tab, under normal usage a general rule is if they system has 500MB or more or FREE RAM it's OK, if it's below that yup you could use a RAM upgrade. It will look similar to:
    While you are in Activity Monitor also check the %CPU column and look to see if you have any processes using large amounts of the CPU.

  • Why does my emails keep downloading after deleting them?

    Why does my emails keep downloading after deleting them?

    It sounds like you may be "synced" to an IMAP email server with your ISP.  You would need to go into Mail>Preferences and set the messages to be removed from the IMAP server after some period of time so they don't redownload to your computer.  That's one possiblility.  Another is if you are synced with iCloud, then the mail is stored on your iCloud server backup and will redownload until you remove it.
    Hope this helps

  • Why does my Ipod keep freezing up during playback,

    Why does my Ipod 3 keep freezing up? I have reset it as discribed in the online help 4 different times and it still freezes.
    I at first thought it was due to the song was an MP3 but it has since froze on ACC and CDA audio. This would tell me it isn't the format that is causing it to freeze.

    By a reset do you mean an actual hard reset of the device or a restore of it in iTunes?  If it was the former, try a restore of the device in iTunes.  If it was the latter, your iPod likely needs servicing.

  • Why does my Mac keep freezing and applications not responding?!?

    Hello everyone, I have a mid 2009 MacBook Pro, 500gb HD, 4gb ram. The problem is that it keeps freezing. I am writing this on my iPhone because my laptop would probably just freeze up if I even attempted to open an application. The problem is that my laptop won't stop freezing up. As soon as I have any application open, it will stop being responsive, give me the beach ball spinning wheel thing, and I'll use command-option-escape to open the force quit menu (because at this point the mouse usually can me moved around the screen but just makes the system get worse) to force quit what ever applications I have open. Then finder will stop responding, and then nothing will work until I do a forced shut down (hold the power button down) and turn it back on again, where the same thing happens within a minute. I tried repairing permissions and doing a P RAM reset, but have had no success with either. Please help, this is ridiculous, I can barely use my laptop and I need it for school. Thanks,
    -Dylan

    Your issue sounds like the hard drive is failing or it was bumped or moved while it was operating and corrupted the data on the drive.

  • Why does my mac keep freezing?

    My mac book pro is almost 2 years old and recently its started freezing every time I try and do a simple task. I open finder and it freezes or I open a new tab on chrome and it freezes it and it freezes up really bad when I'm sliding between desktops but basically I do anything and I have to wait a few minutes before it responds.
    It doesn't have the spinning wheel the whole computer just doesn't repsond and I have no clue whats wrong with it so any help at all would be amazing.

    raciemily,
    try this: boot your MacBook Pro into Recovery mode by holding down a Command key and the R key as it starts up. Once the Mac OS X Utilities menu appears, select Disk Utility. On the left-hand side of the Disk Utility window, select your internal disk’s boot partition (typically called “Macintosh HD”). On the right-hand side, press the Verify Disk button if it’s not greyed out; if it is greyed out, or if it reports that errors were found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu to restart in normal mode. Does it still freeze every time you try to do a simple task?
