  • My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    My mail messages are blank after upgrading to OS X Mavericks. How do I fix this??

    Hi, I had this same problem. I have a load of work subfolders and was showing the message header but no content. I think it lost the link to the original messages.
    There may be a simpler way but I fixed it by going to the mail folders in finder. I took the following steps:
    Go to user library (hold down the alt key whilst clicking the Go menu in finder to access user library)
    Go to user/Library/Mail/V2/Mailboxes. You should be able to see your mailboxes and your original messages (ending .emlx) after clicking down the hierachy in each mailbox. For some reason mail added a "-2" onto the end of each mailbox which I think has caused the problem.
    Copy each required mailbox (.mbox) onto desktop. I removed the "-2" at this stage to clean things up.
    In Mail, choose File/Import Mailboxes....
    Import data from: Apple Mail. Click continue, navigate to desktop and choose the relevant .mbox folders. Click Choose.
    It should then import the mail to a new folder called import in mail. You can then rename that folder or move the subfolders out.
    I moved the .mbox folders on my desktop to my documents folder as a backup just in case. I then deleted the problem mailboxes from the finders mailboxes folder.
    Problem solved - for me anyway!!
    Hope this helps.

    I created text in a photoshop file and it is printing in pixels, not vecotor.  How do I fix this?

    Hello, and welcome to the forum.
    What file format did you use? Some types don't allow for vector content.
    For more info on vector versus raster (that is, pixels), you may want to read "Raster & Vector" at http://www.adobe.com/designcenter-archive/keyconcepts/articles/concept_raster.html

  • The option to add a hyperlink to a text or image is greyed out and not functional.  How do I fix this?

    The option to add a hyperlink to text or an image in pages is greyed out.  How do I fix this?

    Peter is correct. However, one can clever up two overlayed, grouped Text Box and simulate a hyperlinked image that can be placed in the document body with text flowing around the image. Moving the image requires temporarily turning off the hyperlink in the Link inspector. Example was Pages ’09 v4.3 on OS X 10.8.4.
    Steps:
    From the Pages Toolbar, select Text Box twice. The Text Box will be slightly offset. Select and drag the offset one to just above the centered one.
    Click inside the centered Text Box and back out the placeholder text. Now select this Text Box and choose the graphic inspector.
    Choose Fill > Image Fill. Choose your image, and then Scale to Fit the entire Text Box.
    From the Pages arrange menu, choose Make Background Objects Selectable, and Send Object to Background.
    In the Wrap inspector, select Object Causes Wrap, and your choice there. My example was door #2.
    Click inside your text-only Text Box. Change the placeholder text to three instances of the capital letter ‘O.’
    Launch the Font panel (command+T).
    Manually change the font size to 92 points. This just fits a default Text Box size without wrapping. I used Times New Roman Regular.
    Select the text, and with the Link inspector, enable your choice of hyperlink, and also disable it (for now) with the “Make all hyperlinks inactive.”
    With the text still selected, choose Font color from the Font panel. At the bottom of the Color tool, set the Opacity of your text to zero.
    Drag the transparent text-only Text Box exactly over the top of your image Text Box. Use the blue guides.
    From the Pages edit menu, Select All. From the Pages Arrange menu, choose Group.
    Drag the Text Box group where you want it in your document body. Text will flow around it if you used my setting in the Wrap inspector.
    Lastly, with the Text Box group selected, disable “Make all Hyperlinks inactive” in the Link Inspector. You now effectively have a text map overlaying your image and the mouse pointer changes to a hand. The link is now active. Exporting your Pages document to PDF preserves the hyperlinked image effect in both Preview and Acrobat Reader.

  • IBooks is using "Sort Name" and not "Name". How do I fix this?

    I need help.
    I have sorted through all my ebooks, changing them to epub, editing metadata to have correct title, author, and even series (title and order) using a program called Calibre.
    When I sent these to my iTunes-iBooks it chooses to sort them by Sort Name (not the Name, but an entirely different field). I was able to mass delete Sort Artist, but not Sort Name. It is currently putting the series information in as Sort Name.
    As you can reasonably understand, I want to KEEP the series information as part of the metadata, but not have iTunes sorted by this, as it makes it impossible to find books by the title or "Name" of the book.
    Is there any way to force iTunes and iBooks to sort by Name only?
    Is there a way to delete Sort Name information without losing Series information as a part of the data?
    Additionally, I have close to 400 ebooks- I REALLY don't want to have to manually delete the Sort Name from each of these and honestly I'm afraid to lose the series data which took forever to input correctly.
    Off-topic: Can we just mention how so much could be solved if iTunes didn't treat books as if they were tracks of a CD? It's an Author not an Artist, they could include handy fields for Series rather than putting it in Sort Name, etc. I love the compatability between all my devices, but iTunes really should beef up their love for readers.

    Well the idea of the sort fields in general is that you use them to get fine grained control over the sort order rather than tweaking the main field to an incorrect value. iTunes has a built in mechanism for auto-sorting values that omits a leading article (a, an, or the) such that The Beatles will normally sort automatically under B. Given that mechanism exists there is usually no need to place anything in the sort field at all, but if it is there then manual edits to the main field won't change the sort order.
    You should be able to clear the current values using my script ClearSortName. Test the behaviour on a small group first to make sure it does what you want. Rather than having empty values I use the Sort Name field to actively group and order series so, for example, my Jo Nesbø books are kept together, and in the correct order, but retain their original titles. And I use sort artist/album/composer(author) to place the authors in the correct order by surname.

    I have had about 9 iOS devices at work do this. 
    The fix and it will wipe out anything on your iphone is to connect it to your computer and have the latest version on iTunes open.  Hold the Power/Sleep and Home button till it blanks out.  Keep holding the home button untill it says recovery mode on the screen of the computer and do a restore.
