Is there a way to increase the font size in the sidebar of Mac mail and the Finder when running OS 10.6.8?

Is there a way to increase the font size in the sidebar of Mac mail and the Finder when running OS 10.6.8?

The only way to increase the size of the onscreen text in the Finder Menu Bar and in the Side bar in Finder Windows is to change the screen resolution in the OS X Preferences Pane under the Displays icon.
What Mac and screen size are you using?

    Another question. How do you bookmark something.  It was so easy before, why did they change it?  Can I uninstall it?

  • How much real world difference would there be between the 1600MHz memory of a 4,1 Mac Pro and the 800MHz memory of a 3,1 Mac Pro? My main app is multitrack audio with Pro Tools. Thanks so much.

    How much real world performance difference would there be between the 1600MHz memory of a 4,1 Mac Pro and the 800MHz memory of a 3,1 Mac Pro? My main app is multitrack audio with Pro Tools. Thanks so much. The CPU speed of either one would be between 2.8GHz and 3.0GHz.

    What are the differences.... firmware and build, there were tweaks to the PCIe bus itself. As a result 3rd party cards and booting is better.
    Support in 5,1 firmware for more 56xx and W35/36xx processors. Also memory timing.
    The 4,1 was "64-bit boot mode optional" and 5,1 was default. I don't know if there are changes but I assume so, even if it is not reflected elsewhere or in version number.
    I don't know what the prices are but 2009, to buy one today, when the 2010 is $1800.
    The 2008 of course was test bed for 64-bit UEFI and it sure seems even Lion and then ML are not as well engineered - outside of Linc who would be the least likely to have a problem.
    I would assume 2010 has better support for 8GB and even 16GB DIMMs as well as for 1333MHz.
    Nehalem family had only come out in fall 2008 and a lot of work went into making improvements well past 2009.
    If you remember, there were serious heat problems with those and 10.5.7+ up thru 10.6.2 even with iTunes, audio, and hyperthreading and cores hitting and staying in 80*C range. That I assume was both poor code (sleep does not mean poke and ask constantly) as well as changes in SMC and kernel improvements, to work around. Microcode can be patched in firmware, kernel, by drivers and by code, but it is best when the chips and core elements don't need to be.
    If someone is stretched, and can get 2009 for $1200 it might be a fine fit. That year offered the OEM GT120 which isn't really as nice and matched for today both OS and apps that rely on a GPU. And for odd reasons two such 120's don't work well in Lion+ but that is probably minor. Having the 5770 is just "nicer" though.
    There are some articles about trouble booting with PCIe SATA/SAS/SSD and less trouble with 2010. Also support for graphic card and audio I think was one of those "minor" 5770 related support issues. But shows some small changes were made there too.
    I wish someone would come out and pre-announce DDR4 + SATA3 along with PCIe 3.x (for bandwidth and more power per rail) along with say Ivy Bridge-E socket processors was going to be this summer's 3 yr anniversary and to replace the 2010 designed motherboard. But that is what is on Intel's and others drawing boards simmeringn in the pot.

  • Mac Mail and the dreaded colored spinning wheel!

    Hi:
    A new issue has developed with Mac Mail on my MBP.
    As of today I am consistently getting a colored spinning wheel, as though the program is trying to fetch my mail, but cannot. I have to use "Force Quit", because the program is unresponsive.
    I'd be happy to paste the Apple Report data if anyone thinks this is helpful.
    Any ideas as to what the problem is, or what I can do to fix it.
    Its strange that the problem just "started", out of thin air!
    Thanks,
    Michael Stryker

    Did you try repairing permissions and then re-testing Mail to see if the problem persists? What about disabling the "Warn before visiting a fraudulent website" option in Preferences > Security? Have you tried creating a new user account and setting up Mail there to see if the problem occurs there?
    Which version of Mail does it say you have?

  • Mac Mail and the Elusive Horizontal Bar / Separator Line

    LIke so many people, I tried to devise the best way to insert a horizontal separator bar between messages in a multi-message thread. I refuse to insert a long string of dashes -- I want a solid black separator bar -- and I don't want to use a plugin either. So here's the best I can do at this point:
    First, to set it up, open a blank Word document, type three dashes ("---"), hit the Return key (the dashes turn into a horizontal bar), copy the line above and below the resulting horizontal line (ie., to be sure you encapsulate the line within your selection), and then paste it into a new (empty) email.
    If you do the same thing with the equal sign ("===") you end up with a DOUBLE line separator. You might as well copy that into your blank email too.
    Then, simply save that new email in your DRAFT folder so you can easily access those lines quickly to copy/paste them in any other email.
    This only seems to work when the horizontal line is black. You can change the line in Word to any color (using the Borders and Shading tab in the Format Pallette) but then when you paste it into a Mail, the line is invisible, so just use a black line.
    Just fyi.

    Simple solution--very simple
    Open up MS word (or Pages alternative) and create a horizontal line by  holding down the "shift" key and then holding down the "_" key to make the line as long as you want
    Copy this line into your clipboard
    Open Automator
    Go to Automator | Services | Services Preferences | and click the "Text" button across the top
    Type the two letters "ln" in the "Replace" column and the paste the _______________________________ you created and copied in the "With" Column
    Every time you type the letters ln into your email, it gives you the option of replacing the letters ln with a line if you simply hit return
    Hope that helps--I was Googling the solution--and came up with that....

  • Is there any way to retrieve ONE MISSING BOOKMARK...containing months of research, and the only one missing??

    I suddenly have one bookmark missing...only one! which just so happens to be the one containing all the research I am currently working on. And it contains months and months of compiled data, websites, etc...WHICH IS needed to finish my project. was sick this last week and did not turn on computer at all, and I know the bookmark was there when I last used computer. Tried to do several system restores, only to get a message back on each (4) saying " restore could not be completed" but no explanation as to why...is there any other way to retrieve this bookmark? IT wasn't backup'd, (LIKE IT SHOULD OF BEEN) or in recycle bin ?? in case it was deleted...(which I'm not sure where it goes if it were deleted..) ANY SUGGESTIONS??? COULD REALLY USE HELP!!! SINCERELY,

    The question details show Firefox OS.
    Is this a problem on such a mobile device or is that on a desktop computer (your user agent suggests you are on Windows XP)?
    Did you check that you haven't moved this bookmark by accident to another bookmarks folder?
    If it happened so long ago that this bookmark is no longer in one of the JSON backups (bookmarks-####-##-##.json) in the bookmarkbackups folder then chances to retrieve this bookmark aren't very good.
    You can try to create a new profile and see if restoring a JSON backup that looks promising in regard of the date shows you the lost bookmark.

  • Font size is too small in flash applications and the "zoom" feature does not make any difference. Thanks

    Zoom dosen't work in flash applications and it is crazy small and too hard to read...this does beat out the fact you can't right click using flash in google chrome...I prefer firefox, but will go back to IE if it is the only program without such major bugs
    I have also reset the minimum text size in flash and that did not help the problem at all.

  • Elements 13: Is there any way to increase the font size in the drop-down menus?

    The font size in PSE Elements are impossibly small, and I don't see a way to enlarge them.  I've tried through Windows system and through my monitor setup, but nothing I do affects the size of the menu font IN PSE 13.  They are so small that I wonder if it could have been an oversight by Adobe???.  I don't have this issue with any other program that I use, and I use many, really a lot.
    Anyone, please?

    In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

  • Can the font size in the menus be changed?

    I have a cinema display 30" and if i've been working a bit, i find that the very small text size in the menus, including the toolbar itself, are too small to read without moving across the table to the monitor. Is there a way to enlarge the font size in these menus? same goes for the toolbar in safari, but that's another issue.

    Sometimes this can be altered by going inside the "plist" for the project and making specific changes. It is beyond my scope, but someone on these forums should be talented enough to suss it out.

  • How to change font size of text inside a "text box" form the Drawing Markups?

    Hi,
    I expected there to be an option to change the font size after I selected the text and right-clicked, but no, there is only one option that allows you to change the text style but not the font size.
    Does anyone know how to change the font size?

    Don't know what the e-mail is about, why not just log into the forums. In any case, it does not sound like a text box, but one of the other text options (like the Typewriter tool). The regular text edit tool allows you to edit the text and fonts in a regular text box. Select the box and use ctrl-E. You may have to select the text edit tool (name changed in AAX) first. Such editing is not really recommended. Editting in Acrobat should be limited to simple changes, and those often become a pain. The best method of fixing the problem is in the original document and then creating a new PDF.

  • Why have the font sizes in my existing emails suddenly changed from uniform to mixed?

    All of a sudden the font sizes in my existing emails have changed from the same size to different sizes -- some larger, some smaller. Also, in some cases the font has changed from normal to bold. I used to be able to solve this problem when it happened before by closing and reopening TB, but that doesn't work anymore. I haven't made any changes to the font settings. Any suggestions?

    probably related to the original ISSUE. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1007786#answer-597502

    Hi,
    we don´t have many options for setting the font type and size in an ABAP list. One option is that you print the output using either SmartForms or AdobeForms, where you can control font type as well as size. This one requires additional work.
    Another option is to use the instruction Print-Control:
    NEW-PAGE PRINT ON.
    PRINT-CONTROL FONT 1 SIZE 1 LPI 6 CPI 10.
    WRITE: /10   'FONT 1 size 1 LPI 6 cpi 10'.
    SKIP.
    PRINT-CONTROL FONT 1 SIZE 5 LPI 6 CPI 5.
    WRITE: /10   'FONT 1 size 5 LPI 6 cpi 5'.
    SKIP.
    PRINT-CONTROL FONT 2 SIZE 5 LPI 6 CPI 10.
    WRITE: /10   'FONT 2 size 5 LPI 6 cpi 10'.
    SKIP.
    NEW-PAGE PRINT OFF.

    It would depend on your definition of "Fix"
    Your iPod touch running OS 4.2 has a ZOOM feature which will enable you to see the screen more clearly.
    To turn Zoom on or off got to:
    Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom and tap the Zoom On/Off switch.
    _To Zoom in or out_:
    Double-tap the screen with three fingers. By default, the screen is magnified 200 percent. If you manually change the magnification (by using the tap-and-drag gesture, described below), iPod touch automatically returns to that magnification when you zoom in by double-tapping with three fingers.
    Increase magnification: With three fingers, tap and drag toward the top of the screen (to increase magnification) or toward the bottom of the screen (to decrease magnification). The tap-and-drag gesture is similar to a double-tap, except you don’t lift your fingers on the second tap—instead, drag your fingers on the screen. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger.
    _Move around the screen_:
    When zoomed in, drag or flick the screen with three fingers. Once you start dragging, you can drag with a single finger so that you can see more of the screen. Hold a single finger near the edge of the display to pan to that side of the screen image. Move your finger closer to the edge to pan more quickly. When you open a new screen, Zoom always goes to the top-middle of the screen.
    _Large Text_:
    Large Text lets you make the text larger in alerts, and in Calendar, Contacts, Mail, Messages, and Notes. You can choose 20-point, 24-point, 32-point, 40-point, 48-point, or 56-point text.
    Set the text size: In Settings, choose General > Accessibility, tap Large Text, then tap the text size you want.
    I hope this has helped a little - other than this option I think it pretty much is what it is.
    BTW - This information can be found on page 208 of the iPod Touch iOS 4.2 Users Guide.
    Best wishes..
    Ricky
