It's been so many years since I've had a bad RAM chip … had to dig back in my memory. On my Quicksilvers, I found that sometimes a chip would not be fully seated in its slot. Check that they are correct and try it. If that doesn't do it, Pull one of you Ram chips and restart. If still no working, replace that chip and pull the next one. By the process of elimination you should be able to determine if, 'in fact', one of them is defective. If none of them are defective, one of the smarter folk will have to help you. I've never had this 1.2GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon open in the 14 months I've had it. No need to. RHB

I could not even try and run Rebuild Mailboxes. I tried everything I could think of. Ran disk utility, ran everything in OnyX, booted in Safe Mode, removed Plist. Heck, I got so desperate I even repaired permissions. Nothing helped. Having to get Mail up and running, I copied my existing mail folder from Users/me/Library/mail to another disk and started Mail fresh. I tried importing the mail from the previous folder and it would crash upon opening after import. The main error message I see in crash log is: Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001) Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x8a7ad83d Which googling implies bad ram. No new ram installed in months, no other apps crashing. What I am looking to do is get my old mail back and into Mail. I have tried dragging individual messages ( 1070409.emlx ) onto Mail, but that doesn't work. I can double lick an .emlx and it opens in mail, but I can't search them and I have thousands of messages I am trying to recover, so opening each, then forwarding it to me is not a real option.
