Mac Mail App Won't Open

If you can’t open Mail on your Mac. If you try to open a version of the Mail app that can’t be used on your Mac, an alert message is displayed. Make sure the version of Mail you’re trying to open is located in the Applications folder. In the Finder, click Applications in the sidebar, then double-click Mail. All went well and happy about the speed of the new OS, until last days my Mail app won’t open. Same for iCal and Address Book. Few minutes later found out that App Store also not opening. I’ve restored my old OS and wait for a new release of 10.11or even a newer one.

When Mail doesn’t open the link properly or opens a blank tab instead, what do you do?

It’s pretty simple:

  1. Clear all history from your web browser, including passwords, cookies and everything else since the beginning of time
  2. Quit your browser then reopen it (we mean a true “quit”, not just closing the window, use the keyboard shortcut command-Q)
  3. Quit Mail (command-Q) then reopen it.
  4. That’s it!

This way, you’ve given an opportunity to these two apps to clear temporary files and restart correctly to communicate better when you click links on an email.
