OS Monterey - Mail unresponsive
When I open Mail, the dot appears beneath the icon in the dock but the Mail window doesn’t open. This was also an issue on Big Sur. To open the window successfully, Command/M is used to minimise the window into the right of dock. Clicking on the minimised icon will open the Mail window successfully in Big Sur. with OS Monterey however, the window appears but immediately disappears again.
I’ve been helped by Apple Support this morning but after various checks it was agreed I should reinstall the new OS. I’m now waiting for that process to complete.
Two other points. If I set up a new user account, Mail works as it should. The problem is isolated to my main account. Second, I use Bitdefender but have fully uninstalled it while I try to resolve the issue. The problem remains. After each change made in an attempt to resolve this, I have of course restarted the iMac. I’m posting this in hope of a helpful reply and in order to share it with others who might have encountered the same problem.
