Since I installed Yosemite today, Mail worked perfectly for a few hours and then froze. Now if I try to start mail, it freezes and I have to force quit it every time.
I have a MacBook Air mid 2011 with 250GB flash storage, memory 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, and processor 1,8 GHz Intel Core i7.
Is this a Yosemite bug?
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10)
Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.
Thanks to leonie for some information contained in this.
