Updated OSX 10.11.6 broke my Mail App.

I can't use my e-mail application for anything, but looking at emails since the upgrade of the OSX software.  Anyway to fix this?  If I try to do something else than the emails of the view I get the spinning wheel of death that ends only when I do a Force Quit.  Of course I tried to restart my imac.

I hope someone knows how to solve this problem!

Please read this message before doing anything.

This procedure is a diagnostic test. It is unlikely to solve your problem. Don't be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.

The test is intended to determine if the problem is caused by a third-party software that loads automatically at startup or logon, by a device, by a police conflict or corruption of system files or some system caches.

Disconnect all devices wired except those required to test and remove all the expansion cards from secondary market, as appropriate. Start in safe mode and log on to the account of the problem.

Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for additional instructions.

Safe mode is much slower to boot and run as normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things work at all, including an audio output and a Wi - Fi connection on some models. The next normal boot can also be a bit slow.

The login screen is displayed even if you usually connect automatically. You need your password to log on. If you have forgotten the password, you will have to reset it before you begin.

Test in safe mode. Same problem?

After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and make sure you always have the problem. View the results of the test.

  • Update of the absent or invisible e-mails in personal folders from Sierra

    My emails have disappeared from personal folders in Mail since macOS Sierra update from the previous version of El Capitan, indeed personal files themselves seem to be absent or invisible.

    New e-mails that arrived later, for which I put rules in place to move the email to a subfolder in my personal files seem to re-create or reveal part of the hierarchy of folder necessary to reveal or recreate the destination magically subfolder AND reveal not only the new email but also all other emails which were previously contained in this file. However, enamel and her sisters in this subfolder are actually visible once I left and reopened the Mail App.

    Very weird.

A vain another senior tech and reported it to the engineering team.

But if I open the file, it does not show.

    Also, I read in the Inbox of messages disappear after I read the. Demented.

  • Mail app: can't see the IMAP shared folder in iOS10

    Since I updated my iPhone to iOS10 I see the shared folder of the IMAP in the Mail application. IOS9 until the Mail app displays all folders shared IMAP that you were able to subscribe. It was dependent on the setting of the IMAP path prefix. Even I have try different settings I don't recognize any different behavior.

    I have found no comment from Apple for this.

    Someone at - he noticed the same problem? Is there an attempt to solution?

    Same question, very exasperating.  I noticed one thing was that if you delete the account and start over, shared folders are there, at least initially.  If you leave the app and come back later, they are gone.  I suspect that a prefix is stored in the application state that prevents later shared folders to be seen.  I noticed that other applications also have problems, see the shared folders, including by aircraft and shipping, though.  I really liked having access to those from before this update - difficulty please!

  • Mail.app crash at startup

    Suddenly, mid-afternoon Friday, my Mail.app started crashing on my laptop whenever I start it (Mac Book Pro, 2010), and today when I turned on a mac mini it started doing the same thing.

    When I open the app it begins to get the mail, and before the finish mail synchronization with the server, it crashes. No matter if I try to interact with him or not (for example, try to view a message already downloaded), 10-45 seconds after its opening, it crashes. Have not been able to get it remains open since Friday, even for a minute.

    I'm under the last 10.11.4 El Capitan update on both. I updated the mac mini to this version of el cpitan, on April 23. Crash did not begin until today, April 30, so I don't think that it has nothing to do with the update.

    Please launch the Console application in one of the following ways:

    ☞ Enter the first letters of his name in a Spotlight search. Select from the results (it should be at the top).

    ☞ In the Finder, select go utilities ▹ of menu bar or press the combination of keys shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.

    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.

    Step 1

    For this step, the title of the Console window should be all Messages. If it isn't, select

    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ all Messages

    in the list of logs on the left. If you don't see this list, select

    List of newspapers seen ▹ display

    in the menu at the top of the screen bar.

    In the upper right corner of the Console window, there is a search box to filter. Enter the name of the application crashed or process. For example, if Safari has crashed, you would enter "Safari" (without the quotes).

    Each message in the journal begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages since the time of the last fall, as appropriate. Copy to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command + V.

    The journal contains a large amount of information, almost everything that is not relevant to solve a particular problem. When you post a journal excerpt, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.

    Please don't dump blindly thousands of lines in the journal in this discussion.

    Please do not post screenshots of log messages - text poster.

    Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

    Step 2

    In the Console window, clear the search box, and then select

    DIAGNOSIS AND diagnostic USE information reports ▹ user

    (not diagnose them and use Messages) in the list of logs on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points downwards. You will see a list of reports of incidents. The name of each report begins with the name of the process and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report on the process in question. The content of the report is displayed at right. Allows you to copy and paste to validate all of the content, text, not a screenshot.

    I know that the report is long, perhaps several hundred lines. Please report all this anyway. If the report is only a few lines, make sure that you have disabled the search box.

    If you don't see any report, but you know, he had an accident, you have chosen diagnostic and using the list of Log Messages. INFORMATION on the USE of DIAGNOSTIC AND choose instead.

    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you change the UUID ' anonymous, ' a long string of letters, numbers and dashes in the header of the report, if it is present (it cannot be). "

    Please do not post other types of diagnostic report - they are very long and rarely useful.

    When you post the journal excerpt or the accident report, you might see an error message on the web page: "you have included content in your post that is not allowed", or "the message contains invalid characters." It's a bug in the forum software. Thanks for posting the text on Pastebin, then post here a link to the page you created.

  • Comcast mail will not work on Mail.app PORT 995 problem once again!

    OK, so this problem has arisen in the last days.

    I can't send or receive mail from Comcast in Mail.app

    At first, it was the 995 problem, but now it just says:

    The server returned the error: the attempt to send data to the server "mail.comcast.net" failed.

    After three calls to Comcast, told me it's because Mail.app, because "Apple changed something in the application.

    Is not the thing the more ridiculous than you already heard? I have not updated anything either and to my knowledge, Apple is just change your app on your hard drive.

    Twice before, Comcast, once they have admitted that the problem was theirs, has been able to fix it. But not now.

    Yes I can get mail on the web, but it's stupid, and I need to use the POP email... I work online all day.

    They suggested one of the ports be changed from 587 to 465 but that doesn't work anymore. I use SSL with PW auth.

    I have set up scores of Mac for people and this isn't a problem with Mail.app, but a Comcast server problem that they will NOT admit.

    Anyone having this problem and what to do? I have about 50 other emails configured, are not those of the areas will on the same PIPE and using the VERY SAME SETTINGS to SEND?

    Have you tried the settings for IMAP e-mail? Or is your requirement such that you need POP?

  • iOS 9.3.1 Mail App crashing on the main window - a SOLUTION. Can be linked to rogue/spam email

    I had a problem with Mail crashing several times today and was close to restore my phone but am happy that I stumbled upon a solution until I did it!

    I'll copy / paste of the other post I made on the discussion board:

    I had a problem this morning with the Mail App unexpectedly crashing when opening on my 5s iPhone running iOS 9.3.1 (last updated).

    In case someone knows something similar, I found a solution that was remarkably easy.

    Trying to open a mail, the app would show the display of messages for a fraction of a second, and then the crash. Nothing worked - quit smoking and a retry of the app, reboot / hard re-boot of the iPhone, leave all specific applications, disabling of e-mail accounts, settings etc.. I was beginning to think that I have to do a hard system restore, but thank God I have not, as it is a major PITA and I found the unexpected solution.

    In any case, I noticed that I could get in Mail by opening one of my emails from the Notification screen. Everything seemed fine, but if I close this message to return to the main window of Mail, the application crashed once more. The main window is appeared to be the culprit. I noticed that several new Spam messages were visible on this screen this morning.

    So here's how I found the solution: my computer, I myself sent a priority email, which came on my screen of notifications. By using this link directly to open the message, Mail worked fine again. Then by using the arrows to zip directly from a message to a message, I worked my way through the new emails, including the unrecognized Spam I deleted. Once they were gone, I back-arrow in the main screen of Mail and Voila! No more crash.

    So, apparently, there are messages that can crash the Mail app on iOS 9 simply by being visible in the main window. Be aware of this and if this happens to you, with Mail blocks instantly whenever you open it, try this approach before restoring your system software.

    You could also try resetting your e-mail account. First close your Mail application completely from the window of the selector app by double clicking the Home button and drag the email preview pane up until it disappears from the display. You may need to search the mail pane covering scribbles to the left. Then go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > find your e-mail provider and click on the account. On the next page, delete the account. Then perform a forced reboot. Hold down the home and Sleep/Wake buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds , until the Apple logo appears. Then go to settings > mail... and to add the account.
