I am running Lion 10.7.4 on a MBP15 late 2011 model. My mail wont quit and hangs until I force quit. I re-built my mail library as per these recommendations url... but it keeps hanging after a little while.I have accounts with Yahoo, GMail and an Exchange 2010 server.
Info:
MacBook Pro (15-inch Late 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.4)
I have a applescript that sometimes hangs (this is on a blind server). reason is that the application (JSMS, it sends text messages via my mobile phone account) can not connect to the server. it than pops a message saying so, but as a result the script does hang and interferes with other stuff.
is there a way to have the script stop (would 'try if' do this?) or alternative is to force quit this script after 10 minutes with an other script.
Info:MBP, MM, MBP - 10.6 + Windooz XP on a hard partition
I installed the 10.5.7 update yesterday on my iMac and had no issues with it. It was rebooting with no problems until this morning I tried to boot Mac OSX 10.5.7 and it hangs on the blue screen with just the pointer and a message telling me that spotlight has quit unexpectedly. I have tried switching to safe mode and still have the same problem and I have also tried to repair the disk on Disk Utility but it tells me that disk appears to be ok. I could reinstall Mac OSX but I don't want to loose files and music that I have on Leopard.

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy Mail app will not open, and now when I need to update my mac, it won't because it says the mail app "cancelled restart". Mail app will not open nor close. When I click on "Mail" at the top bar, the "quit" option is in light grey (not clickable). Mail is still accessable on my phone. Is there a way to delte the app all together (with out having to take it in) and re download.

I'm tired of Mac Mail continued to quit with me, on and off. It's annoying. It's been going on for two months now and Apple haven't fixed it. The last time I reported it here with the diagnostic report, I didn't get any new replies back to fix this ongoing concurring problem, except for the first one. After two weeks or so, it returned. I know my diagnostic reports will be the same, every time it crashes. I can't even trash the bundled folder, since it's not listed. I didn't have this kind of problem on my old Imac years ago, when I've had my MacBook Pro for almost two years now.

Imac, Mac OS X (10.4.4)

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am running Mac OSX 10.7.3 and I recently been having issues shutting down my computer with mail running. Sometimes it takes 2-3 mins for it to shut mail down and other times it says it couldn't shut down because of the mail app. Is there anything I can do short of reinstalling Lion?

I am trying to do a regular update to my MacBook, it tells me I need to quit Mail before I can do it. So I close it and quit it but the little dot that says its still there won't go. I keep telling it to quit which it won't and the computer won't shut down because mail won't let it.
Also I can even open Mail now and it won't go in to its normal sleep mode. What do I do?
Every time I try to log onto mail with my email address, it tell me that mail has quit unexpectedly. It's a brand new Macbook Pro

This issue has probably when addressed in the past but I am having a problem with it now and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Currently, whenever I try to access Apple Mail (OS X 10.6.4), I get the spinning ball and I find that mail is not responding. Does anyone have any idea of what is going on or how I can reinstall mail?
This is the third time I've had this problem. After an interruption in internet connection, the email for my Mail program hangs up on fetching 12 of xx, but always on 12. When this happens I can't quit out of Mail and have to use Force quit. I've tried letting it run for a whole day but it makes no progress. I've tried deleting the number 12 email from the server with no luck. How can I solve this please?

My Mail has worked since the beginning, but yesterday it stopped fetching incoming mails. I can send mails, but not receive! The clock keeps on spinning and says "fetching new mail" My server ports is set to 25 and 110 as default. When I try to quit Mail, it dosen't. I have to force-quit Mail to close it.

Mail will quit when I try to add an attachment
If I go to the Finder from another application, the Finder quits and windows disappear. If I select "new finder window" finder repeatedly quits. After 10 or fifteen times (usually I just restart) I can get the finder window to stay open.
Using Safari and selecting a file to upload causes Safari to quit. Firefox works fine.
I have done a clean install. Problems persist intermittently.
Any advice on how I can fix this?
I just moved from windows to apple and when I opened mail and set my yahoo account in it, the application downloads all my messages {about 1200} and so far all is ok. But as soon as I click on one of these messages or any RSS, the application quits and I get " mail application quit unexpectedly" msg.

I have a Dual 2ghz PowerPC G5.I'm positive the password is correct because I enter it all the time in my other mac hardware/applications. I tried deleting the mail account them re-adding it, it still rejects my password. I can't update any of my software (nothing is available). I've tried restarting the computer.Safari still works. All my other apps still work.  I selected PowerMac as the product on the pulldown menu, I hope that's the same as PowerPC. My OS is 10.4.11Â

For some time now mail.app takes over 3 minutes to quit. Whenever I try to shut down my iMac the shutdown is aborted because mail.app has not closed so I have to wait until mail.app closes and then shut down.

Mail is running in the background, but it won't quit or open. I need to reboot (i.e. hold down start for 10 seconds) to restart. Other applications are also very slow to respond during this, incl. Safari. I'm on a Late 2007 Macbook running 10.6.2, which I updated yesterday.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI just set up my new iMac, migrated everything from my MacBook Pro, and everything works EXCEPT Mail. I have configured my MobileMe settings to synch everything, and online, everything is there: contacts, all old email, etc... but Mail doesn't show any of this stuff, nor will it retrieve or synch any of my email accounts. Also, I have to Force Quit it everytime to exit the program.
Could this be something with the Preferences file, or .plist file?
Last week, my MS Entourage quit getting my me.com mail. It gives me a Authentication failed because Entourage doesn't support any of the available authentication methods. error message. It was working fine and suddenly quit. I can access my mail by going to icloud as well as on my ipad, but not on my iMac using MS Entourage. When I set up a new account and have it "Verify My Settings," I get a "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password" (-17900 ), yet its the same user name and password used on the ipad and icloud.com logon. My iMac operating system is 10.7.3 and Entourage is 12.3.2
