How do I change font colour permanently in Mail.

Can someone tell me how to permanently change the font colour in Mac Mail.  I have changed it from black to blue in preferences and also when I bring up the new message screen have changed to blue there also, but it still types out in black.  So I would be very grateful if someone could tell me what I am doing wrong.
Thanks
Ann

    Simple question whcih i cannot find the simple answer to:  How do I change Text Colour in a Spreadsheet?  The Help menu doesn't help.

    Hi Lecia,
    You have several choices.
    Use the first set of controls in the Format Bar. One of these is a Color well (red in the image). Select the cell(s) in which you want the text coloured, then click the well to open its Color palette, and choose your colour.
    Use the Text Inspector. Open the inspector, click the Text button (T), and use the tools there (similar to the set in the Format Bar).
    Press command-T to open the Fonts Window. This offers a few more options than are available in the Inspector or the Format bar.
    Regarding "Help": I'd recommend using the Numbers '09 User Guide, which you can download via the Help menu. Easier to search, and easier reading than the individual Help articles. search 'text color' to quickly get to instructions on applying colour to text.
    Regards,
    Barry

    Download and read page 27 on creating and using Styles, which is done largely by example ie you make the text what you want then save it as a Style to be applied wherever you want in the document from the Styles Drawer.

    Hi,
    Please try this: '''Tools''' (or '''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Applications'''. Look for or start typing '''mailto''' in the search box and for the '''Action''' change it to the desired mail client (the application that opens up in Explorer) if the value is different.

    You will need the web browser Firefox installed
    http://download.mozilla.org/?product=firefox-6.0.2&os=osx&lang=en-US
    Next you will need to add the following addons
    Theme Font & Size Changer
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/theme-font-size-changer/
    NoSquint
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    Theme Font & Size Changer can adjust the size of the type Firefox uses in the toolbar area.
    NoSquint remembers per site web page zoom levels and you can set a minimum size for all web pages so any site you visit is made bigger automatically. Safari doesn't do this.
    You can see the difference between Firefox and Safari in this picture.
    Note: Firefox is highly customizable browser, and I added the green with the yellow type, you won't see that when you first start using it.
    It did that to match my desktop picture, grey is depresssing.

  • How do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion.  Everything is greyed and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which are now invisible?

    how do i change font sizes and colors in ical in OS Lion. Since upgrading,  all fonts are grey, instead of black,  and too small.   And how do I changed the color of the scroll bars, which also are grey and almost invisible?  And if you can asnwer this, can you tell me how to get back the email format I had before the upgrade?  I no longer have column headings and I'd like them.  Thank you. 

    Do you know about changing the font colors for ical, and the color of the scroll bars?
    No, I don't. I don't use that program; I fiddled with it just now, and could not find a way to do that.
    Perhaps someone else will have an idea.

  • How do I change font size on the safari tool bar

    How do I change font size on the safari tool bar

    You can't in Safari.
    However you CAN with Firefox and the add-on called Theme Font & Size Changer, also include NoSquint and set a global web page zoom level a bit higher, say 150%.
    NoSquint has buttons on the tool bar to increase/decrease each websites size AND IT REMEMBERS IT!
    Under the Tools Menu > Customize you can add more toolbars as well, but they have to have something in it of course.
    (note: the green with yellow type is a person you can add from thousands of choices, it's not the default look of Firefox)
    So this setup, although it may appear large here compared to Safari, is fine on my 17" when sitting back about 3-4 feet, takes up about 1/6th of the screen, so I'm not hunched up close, and I have a lot of screen real estate to play with anyway.
