Why won't my Mail app. open after updating to 10.4.4?

I updated my powerbook G4 to 10.4.4. After restarting Apple's Mail application refused to open from my dock. I then tried to launch it by double clicking on the icon in the application folder. It pops up a dialog box which says, "The application Mail quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple." When I click on the 'Reopen' button the dialog box goes away and another one pops up which says, "The application Mail quit unexpectedly after it was opened. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Try Again to temporarily restore the application's default settings and open it again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple." When I click on the 'Try Again' button a new window opens called 'New Account' which 'guides' me through the necessary steps to set up my mail account. When I click 'continue' a new window opens which asks for my user name and also my .Mac account password. Once I enter this info I click on the 'continue' button and it logs into .Mac and gives me an Account Summary so it's acting like everthing is okay until I press the 'continue' button and then I get the same error message as before: "The application Mail quit unexpectedly. Mac OS X and other applications are not affected. Click Reopen to open the application again. Click Report to see more details or send a report to Apple."
I downloaded the freeware program called Preferential Treatment by Jonathan Nathan in hopes it would remove a damaged Mail .plist file. No dice - no problems with Mail prefrence files according to this software. I'm at a loss of what to do next. I read that someone else had a similiar problem - I don't know what to do next. Any help would be really appreciated as I use my Mail program constantly. Thanks! Oh, also when entering this Post and describing my system the OS menu provided does not allow me to select OS 10.4.4. I'm sure that will be udated soon.

Why won't the Mail app message list font change?

I am on Lion at home and at work. Using the new 3 pane layout in the Mail app. On both machines, when I go to preferences>fonts & colors> I can change all the fonts BUT the message list. No matter what I do it doesn't change. Is this a bug or just a factor of the new layout?

Sorry about the lack of information.
Yep, mailbox behaviour is sent to "store sent messages on the server". This is happening, though, other primary IMAP accounts. And yes, it's been since Mountain Lion. Sometimes the messages show under the account, other times they don't. There is no sense to the randomness of it. Is there a way to "reset" all of my mail accounts without losing all of my stored mail?

Why won't the mail app load my emails?

I have been problems with my mail app for a while now. It will not download any new emails from my AOL account. I have tried deleting the account from the app and resetting it up. Still no luck. Can any one help?
-Thanks

I told it to "Sync wiht AOL" and checked a little while later and it looks like it worked. My MacBook is now caught up on emails.
Thanks for the views.

Why won't my HDMI output work after update my iPad to iOS6?

After updating my iPad to iOS6 it won't play my videos on my tv via HDMI cable. The tv displays "invalid format" I don't know how to chnage the display settings on the iPad because maybe there are none. Is there some backdoor way to change the settings so maybe I can use my $40+ cables I bought?

SOLVED Help! Why won't my CS6 apps open?

NEVERMIND, DETAILS BELOW
I had Photoshop open, and it was fine. I tried to open InDesign, and got just Welcome to Adobe Creative Cloud......
But I have CS6, I read the license and it is supposed to keep working even after any deadline for upgrading to CC. I don't know if this is a coincidence or not.
I have work to do this weekend!! This is not good.
Added info:
Everything was working fine yesterday, I have not installed anything new.
Mac Pro, Mt Lion.
It just lost my serial number. This web site had all my info, but my desktop software did not.

See here: iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
Some users have been able to resolve this by downloading and installing a free app from the App Store.

Why won't my free apps open, they only work when I download another one why is that

When I download free apps they work but then when I turn my iPad off and come to use the free apps again they don't open unless I download another app how can I get them to always work?

According to the website....
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install a free (or paid) app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You could also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.
Why you are continuing to see this behavior, I can't explain. Try signing out of your ID, restart the iPad and sign in again.
Sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in

Why won't the music app work after the IOS 7.1 update?

Every time i try to listen to my music in the Apple Music app it opens then freezes. Sometimes it will let me open an artist but wont play the songs. I tried going into the settings to see if i could change anything but it wont let me open the music settings tab, the button just turns gray and freezes my phone. I've tried force quitting the app and re starting my phone and nothing has worked.

Hello mbongi1,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with the Music app on your iPhone. You have taken some really good troubleshooting steps already to isolate and troubleshoot the issue. I have a couple of additional suggestions you can try.
First, I recommend resetting your iPhone:
Reset
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the issue persists after resetting your iPhone, I recommed backing up and restoring your iPhone:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Why won't my existing projects open after I sign in?

I just purchased Adobe Premiere Elements 12 about two weeks ago. I started two projects since and everything was fine up until four days ago when the server went down for a day or two. Now when I try opening up my existing projects, I sign in, but nothing happens after the window that validates my serial number closes. Why is this happening?

Select a topic, then click I STILL NEED HELP to start Premiere Elements chat to help with serial number issues

Why won't my mail app on my iphone5 run

One day I hit mail icon and mail wouldn't come up.......any ideas why or how to fix?

Program flashed and instantly returned me to main screen. I tried a few things, none of which helped. I have since restored from an old iCloud backup. Must have been some kind of bug. Thanks for your concern

What do I do to resolve an ongoing problem with the MAIL "new messages sound".? If I reboot the iMAC and keep the mail app open after a number of messages come in the NEW MESSAGE Sound quits. I have to reboot the machine to get it back.

New Messages sound quits after several messages have arrived. I've tried several passes at resolving but nothing I have done seems to work. Sometimes I have to reboot the imac several times to get the New Messages Sounds back. Everything else works. The only thing I haven't done is reinstall the OS and that seems foolhardy.

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

Why won't my digital editions open or update automatically?

I can't access any of my books on digital editions because when the program opens I get an error message saying I must download the newest update. When I click on this message to update it just shuts down Editions and doesn't take me to an update webpage. Also, when I click to update later, it shuts down Editions as well. I tried downloading the newest version on the adobe website, but this just opens my current program with the same error message. Help! This is so frustrating. I paid for my e-books and I want to be able to read them!

You can download the latest version of Digital Editions by going to http://www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions , however since that doesn't seem to be working for you will want to use the stand alone installer which you can get at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/digitalpublishing/ (click on "Digital Editions Stand Alone Installer" link)
