Question: Q: Mail unusable since upgrade to Sierra When I first upgraded my iMAC to Sierra (10.12), Mail would crash every time I tried to select the 'Sent' folder. Most other folders could be accessed fine; a few would also cause Mail to crash. I have Office 365 Excel 16.10 running on High Sierra (10.13.3). Copying takes several seconds, sometimes cell comments are not viewable at all & often my previously working Hyperlinks to other files in the same folder don't work.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Robert from A known problem?

For Excel, it chokes on larger files. The Mac Office app versions are still, sadly like the 2011 version, 32-bit - the same files in Excel 2013 (Win, 64-bit) work fine. The same files in Excel 2013 (Win, 32-bit) also choke - however, at least on the Windows platform I have choices (of application installs). And, of course, the 32-bit Mac application is, by that architectural restriction not 'allowed' access to very powerful Add-Ins. As for Outlook, there's no parity at all.

Sorry, that is not entirely correct. A clean boot should show all but 2-4gb as available. As you use various browsers and programs the memory available will drop and then go back up when those programs are closed as the memory is released.
