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 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 does the mail app think my email username and or password is wrong, when they are correct?

    I used to be able to check my AOL email through the mail app on my ipod touch. Recently it has been telling me that my username and/or password for my AOL email is wrong. I checked my username and password by logging in to my email on my computer. I tried deleteing and readding the account. Restoring then readding. I am able to use my gmail accounts on my ipod touch.

    Hi,
    Is your AOL account an AOL Kids account?  I have seen problems with AOL Kids accounts before in Apple Discussions.  Try a forum search and see if anything useful comes up. 
    Hope this helps!

  • Why won't the iTunes app on the iPad and iPhone let me shut off new download email notifications?

    I have a few new season passes.  Each one came, of course, with email notifications of new episodes.  I'm able to turn those notifications off through the iTunes store interface on my laptop.  But when I try to shut them off on my iPhone or iPad, the app lets me get all the way to toggling the notification option to "off" and pressing "done" before saying that the iTunes store "cannot process [my] request at this time." 
    Here's what I've done to try and fix the issue so far:
    1. Logged out of, and back into, my account on the iTunes store;
    2. Turned my iOS devices off and back on again;
    3. Made sure my iOS and iTunes software was completely up to date; and
    4. Contacted Apple customer support.
    That last option produced the following advice from Apple's representatives:
    A. Log out of, and back into, your account on the iTunes store;
    B. Turn your iOS devices off and back on again;
    C. Update iTunes to the latest version;
    D. Update your iPad and iPhone to the latest iOS version;
    E. Use another app that does the same thing as iTunes;
    F. Uninstall and re-install the iTunes app; and
    G. Let us know if the problem persists.
    When I let Apple know that (1) my account functions just fine on the full iTunes program, (2) the software on my devices is completely up to date, (3) both iOS devices continued to suffer the same problem after multiple restarts, and (4) options E-F don't appear to be possible without jailbreaking, a representative referred me to Apple's webpages on generic iPad troubleshooting.  She also admonished me not to jailbreak my iPhone or iPad because they'd then be jailbroken---and that's bad.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem?  How did you fix it?  Apart from just using the full iTunes program, that is---I don't take my laptop on the road with me when I travel, which can be for weeks at a time, so I'd like to be able to shut these notifications off through the app interface if at all possible.
    Thanks very much for your help and suggestions!

  • Why won't the Mail PDF print option work anymore?

    I have been trying to mail PDF files, but when I select that option from the PDF drop-down menu in the print dialog box, nothing happens.  Can anyone help?
    Jon

    No, no Adobe Reader here.
    I did find an interesting workaround:
    Make an alias to the Mail application
    Put the alias in ~/Library/PDF Services
    Give it a catchy name
    It then shows up in the print dialog's PDF menu (along with the "Mail PDF" workflow) and performs essentially the same function, but without the annoying fail. A side effect (a bonus to me, for arcane reasons) is that the mail message defaults to plain text -- the standard workflow creates a rich text document.

  • Why won't the extract panel load in Dreamweaver CC?

    I cannot get the extract panel to load in Dreamweaver CC on my Mac. 
    The tutorial will load, but I can never actually use this feature.

    If that is not the case then let us have a look on your machine.

  • 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 the Mac App Store let me update iMovie to version 9.0.6?

    I just received my new MacBook Pro with Retina display today.  I ran through the setup process including Migration Assistant for everything. (from 2011 iMac)  I received a notifiction from the Mac App Store this evening stating that an update was available for iMovie.  When I clicked on the update button, a message appeared stating that I had to sign in with the account that I used to purchase the app in order to update it.  This made no sense to me, considering that the app came pre-installed on the machine.  I was thinking it might have something to do with Migration Assistant but when I checked iMovie on my iMac it had already been updated to the most current version. (9.0.6)  I also checked my account information.  It was correct.  I also tried signing in with another Apple ID I have.  None of this worked.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Whatever you do DO NOT UPGRADE. Check out the reviews on the App Store and the Web for this version. The App will not let you finalize your project (render it to 1080p) or share it in any format you ask it to. Effectively all you end up with is the ability to see it on your MacBook and an error message saying "Sharing requires more memory to be available" I have an i7 iMac with 16 GB and that is not enough?
    I replaced my ageing MacBook Pro about two months ago before the retina display came in. Jealous or what?

  • WHY WON'T THE EPRINT WEBSITE ACCEPT MY EMAIL OR PASSWORD? I HAVE RESET IT BUT STILL WILL NOT LET ME

    Subject
    Why won't eprint website let me enter.  I have reset my password to no avail.  Do I have to return this printer to the store?

    The Web Services server was experiencing difficulties at the time.  If you're still having problems creating an ePrintCenter account and you already have a Snapfish account, try the following steps:
    -On the ePrintCenter login page, there is the blue Snapfish icon. This brings up a Snapfish login form.
    -If you do not remember your Snapfish password, go to Snapfish.com and use the snapfish “forgot your password?” tool.
    -Once you login in to ePrintCenter using your Snapfish login, you will now have an “HP Web Services” type account, you can use the normal login form without hitting the Snapfish button

    When I try to open the zimbra email web site with safari, it freezes and nothing is loaded not even the sign-in page. I can load the sign in page on other computers, even my iPhone. Why will it not load on my Mac?

    From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences. If you are running an older version of Safari select the Security tab.

  • 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 voluntary upgrades load and execute?

    About once a week I get a Firefox-generated message asking me to upgrade or accept an update. Then the status bar displays on the screen saying that it's being loaded. That will go on for hours, with no progress.
    Should I download a fresh copy of Firefox 4, and will I get instructions?

    Okay.... I'll bite... What is a "plugin-container" and where are the "rules" to be found? I know this is hard to believe, but not everyone came out of the womb clutching a mouse and a keyboard!

  • Why won't the iTunes store load!!!

    When I click on the "iTunes Store" button on the left hand side of the screen, there is a blank page and the loading bar says "Accessing iTunes Store", it gets half way and then freezes. However sometimes, it does load but there is no formatting on. I am sure it is not my firewall because I have checked and it is not my Internet connection because it works on other computers running windows 7. I have tried re downloading and repairing the software but nothing has happened.Please could someone help me because it is really annoying. P.S. I have never been able to access it since i got my laptop.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:
