How to fix the positions of two Mail.app viewer windows on the screen?

I use Mail.app as my main IMAP Mail application. I work with two Mail viewer windows which I position on the screen so that the upper window shows the Inbox and the lower window the Send-box. The windows are aligned to each other and do not overlap. Fine.
But when I quit Mail.app and open the program again, the windows have forgotten their postions. They "jump" to a new location on the screen. This is in contrast to all other applications I use. Another bad example of window managment is the Mail.app-Preferences window which also does not stick to a given position.
Is this a (known?) bug or does it only happen on my Macs? (two: one in the office, one at home, both running 10.4.6)

I guess the difference is that my description text is longer.
Try this text for a new rule:
"From: blacklisted senders 1 - move to SPAM-blacklisted-addresses"
When you want to see this text completely with the default font, you will need to enlarge the Preferences window for "Rules". After that, click to "Signatures": the window stays at the enlarged width. Then click on any of the other areas in Preferences, and the window goes back to the "normal" width. When you then click on either "Signatures" or "Rules", the Preferences window will stay at the "normal" width (resulting in a truncated display of the rule description text).
Also: when you have moved the Preferences window to a position not covered by a (large) viewer window to access it with a mouse click, close the window and re-open Preferences, it is back to a position covered by the viewer window. Again not accessible when the viewer window is the front-most Mail.app window. BTW: the "Activity viewer" window does a better job in sticking to a fix position.

  • How do I HIDE "Notes" from my Main Message Viewer Window

    Old "Notes" are cluttering up my Inbox views in the main mail message viewer window.
    The yellow pad "Notes" feature in Mail is helpful, but every time I create a new note - which I may well want to keep around for a long time - the note title etc appears in my active message inbox viewer window. How can I turn off the apparently default display of notes with the content of my normal in boxes ??
    There is a separate "Notes" folder created by the Mail .app under the heading of "REMINDERS" - I want my "Notes" titles to be visible only when I click that notes folder itself and not with all my incoming (new) messages.

    I guess when you write the software to work exactly the way you want, you might be able to say that. Unfortunately for you, you didn't write the software and there is currently no way to get that behavior.
    If you would like Apple to adjust the software for you, then you might try providing feedback to Apple. They provide a method in the Mail menu of Mail.

  • I have two personal e-mail accounts and a general account that I have synced to my Mail app, but I keep getting emails sent to the non-personal e-mail because they're on the same server. How can I change that?

    I have two personal e-mail accounts and a general account that I have synced to my Mail app, but I keep getting emails sent to the non-personal e-mail because they're on the same server. How can I change that?

    The only ways I know of for email to get sent to an account are:
    1. It was addressed to that account. Someone used that email address to send you the email.
    2. It was forwarded to that account by the account to which it had been addressed. I am not aware of Mail having this feature but it is often a feature provided by your ISP that you can turn on by logging into your account via the Internet and setting it up.  I assume you have not done this, though.
    With several email addresses in the same Mail client, you have to be careful which one you are sending from. If you send from the wrong address, any replies will come back to that same address. I make this mistake all too often.

  • My windows(8.1 64bit) partition is read only from the mac(yosemite) side of things. Anybody have a clue on how to fix this? Also, slightly frustrating as well, windows crashes every time I attempt to open a file from the mac partition.

    All Office applications will also try to open a temporary work file in the same location as the source file. This implies the source file directory also needs to be writable for this temporary file. Since the default HFS+ driver provides only read-only access, such temporary files will fail to open, and will cause the application to fail.
    As a test copy the file you want to edit, say an Excel spreadsheet from the OSX file system to the C: drive on the Windows side and try to open it. If you look in this directory, you should see two files, the source and a temporary file. You may have to force the temporary file to be opened on a read-write file system, by manipulating the folder for temporary files.

    Thank you.

    Remove your email accounts from Mail. Quite Mail. Navigate to the /Home/Library/ folder. Locate the Mail folder and drag it to the Trash. Go to the Preferences folder and locate all preference files starting with "com.apple.mail" and drag them to the Trash. Go to the Containers folder and drag the two com.apple. mail related folders to the Trash.
    Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
    Pick one of the following methods:
    A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:
    chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN.
    B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
    C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:
    ~/Library
    Press the Go button.
    Do not re-open Mail lest it attempt to re-populate all that information from iCloud.

    "when I try save to PDF it just wants to save it to a file?"
    Correct. The difference between "Mail PDF" and "Save PDF" is that the first opens a new Mail message with the file attached. the second saves a file which you may attach to an email message.
    "Terrainathome is a good example of what I am trying to do."
    Not familiar with Terrainathome, but my guess is that the company is sending an email message containing HTML code that downloads what's essentially a web page into the displayed message. To do that, you'll need a website, software that will produce the necessary HTML code, and recipients with email clients capable of interpreting HTML (which is 'most email clients' these days).

  • I inadvertently removed the junk mailbox from Mail.app in SL, how can I recreate / restore it ?

    Hi,
    Well, the title says it all : I inadvertently removed the junk mailbox from Mail.app in SL,
    it still is spresent in my ~/library/mail folder, how can I recreate / restore it in mail.app ?
    Since I have a fair number of email accounts, intelligent mailboxes, rules and archive folder, I really don't want to rebuild everything. And, no, I can't use time machine to restore it.
    All help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi AdamKB, sorry for late follow-up.
    What I lost is the "container" that groups all junk mailboxes in one place in Mail, like is done for all the inboxes.
    The problem is that I lost visibility on all junk mailboxes. It is only a visibility problem because the junk mailboxes are still present locally for my POP accounts and remotely for may IMAP accounts, I justdon't see them anymore in Mail's interface.

  • How do I insert a font in Mail which is not in the Pref. scroll-down menu?

    How do I insert a font in Mail which is not in the Pref. scroll-down menu?
    I love Palatino, I have it bot in the System fonts folder, in the home/library/fonts folder and in the computer/library/fonts folder.
    Yet, It does not come out.
    Something else I should be doing?

    Keep in mind that if the recipient of the email doesn't have Palantino active on their computer, they're not going to see that font on their end. Their system will replace any instance of Palantino with whatever font is they have set as the default in their mail program.

  • Hello, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my itunes. When I was trying to download the new 1114 version, a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library was incorrectly loaded. Then another window said iTunes not installed properly

    Hello,
    I was wondering if anyone can tell me how to fix my iTunes. When I tried to update to the latest version (1114) a window popped up saying R6034 C runtime library incorrectly installed. Then another window popped up saying that iTunes was installed incorrectly Error 7 (windows error 1114). Hope you can help.

    Solved the issue without using the trash . I tried to consolidate the library in LACIE, then clicked on any exclamation-mark song and tried to locate the file. Repeating those steps 3 or 4 times cleared it up. That was confirmed when I synced the entire library on a iPod Classic, and showed up no problems after syncing the Nano.
         What went wrong was perhaps to fail to consolidate the library at first .

  • How to fix Maps positioning problems in X6

    I had an Nokia 5800 at the start of the year before it got stolen, and nokia maps on it worked perfectly. After it was stolen I got a X6 (16g) as a replacement, but the maps have never worked properly for me. At first it looked different to the map I had on my old 5800 and would keep asking me for a license, so I updated the software with OVI. The latest software looks the same as the maps on my 5800 but the new problem is that the positioning is constantly off by over 300m, making the gps unusable. I've tried changing the positioning methods but nothing seems to work.
    Anyone know a way to fix this? The store I bought it from was no help. It is not a parallel import btw.

    Yes, the way Sync works is that it puts all the Bookmarks together and pushes them to all your devices. Same with History.
