Messages App Quits Unexpectedly Mac

Posted on 15-09-2021 by admin

It looks like Messages is hanging before it Unexpectedly Quits. (com.apple.ichat is the Bundle name) I would do a NVRAM reset as a first step see How to reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support. If that does not work try a Safe Boot. If that has not worked check the Contacts App Card Menu My Card. Is this your Details?

My Apple 'MAIL' app. unexpectedly quits each time I open it.
It will begin to load my mail, show the mailboxes and new e-mails and then all of a sudden quit.
I searched some of the Apple support and forums and have tried these things:
1. I trashed the 'com.apple.mail.plist' preference file in the pref. folder.
2. I did an archieve install with Tiger OSX on my entire System Folder.
3. I erased my user>library>'mail folder'
4. I tried holding the shift key upon opening the program as suggested here but to no avail: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=479497&tstart=0
This has not resolved the problem. The program still quits every time I open it.
Pleeeeease help!!!!!!!!!

Take a look at these quick troubleshooting tips to get Chrome working again.

1. Restart your computer

Sounds obvious, but this is a common fix; programs or apps can sometimes get in the way of Chrome running correctly, so give your Mac a quick restart and see if Chrome will work properly.

2. Try another browser

It's worth trying an alternative browser to see if the fault could be page related instead of a browser issue.
