Mail underline or highlight words

Can you underline or highlight words in the text box of mail.

Yes. After you select your text to format it - Tap the arrow that points to the right in the next black box that pops up and then another box pops up with a B/I/U - bold, italics and underline. Tap that option to format your text.
There are a couple of options to select text - Select and Select all - so experiment to see how it works.

Highlighted words in the search feature in mail

hi all, ok, maybe i am going crazy, but in mail under tiger, i thought i use to be able to see any searched word highlighted in the messages mail found containing that word. now when i perform a search in mail under leopard, the searched for word is not highlighted in any of the messages. am i crazy or did leopard do away with this feature? if so, does anyone know of a way to get searched words highlighted in mail under leopard?
many thanks,
ron

Hi mountart2, thanks for the hint. It helps a little bit, better than nothing
But again, it works only, if you click in one of the listet mails and you press then the command+g. Only the words in this email are then highlighted. For a search in the next mail, you have to select it, mail after mail.
I agree with you, there must be a preference somewhere, where you switch it on.
I won't give up. Many thanks!

How to remove highlighted word ads on web pages. Tried everything

Hi everyone. Haviing a problem with highlighted words ads on web pages. Tried everything. Went safari / preferences / extensions. Removed everything. The problem remains. Can anyone help me on this one?

you may have Genieo installed
see
http://www.genieo.com/faq/#q20
Note that, if Genieo is installed, using the recommendations that Genieo themselves provide on that page will not remove it. They cannot be trusted, and their uninstaller is known not to remove everything. Proper Genieo removal instructions can be found in my Adware Removal Guide.
I don't believe this is a Genieo problem, though. Genieo usually just hijacks the search engine. It doesn't cause the random underlined words that cause ads to pop up. That's going to be caused by some other adware, probably also described in my Adware Removal Guide.

How to highlight word(s) with different colors?

I have Mail, Version 3.2 (919/919.2)
Re: color
I see that it is possible to change the color of text and to change the color of the entire field background, but I want to be able to HIGHLIGHT certain words with light colors like yellow, not just change the color of the text.
Is it possible to HIGHLIGHT word(s) in Mail?
If so, how? I looked at all the options and read the Help etc.

OK, outgoing messages. For some reason I thought you wanted to flag stuff in received mail. Mail Tags is certainly not what you want.
Can you recall what keys or key combinations you used in Tiger? I presume it did more than simply change text to bold?
If you have selected Rich Text in Mail's Preferences/Composing you can colour the text. Use Format/Show Colors to bring up the floating colour window (if you need it a alot have it up all the time) and when you select some text and click on one of the colours it will be changed to that colour - but not highlighted.

What is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro

what is the shortcut key to highlight words in adobe reader in macbook pro?
Shift + U is not working
how can i change shortcut key?

I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.

My macbook pro is running very slow with some strange mouse and window movements. The trackpad is very unresponsive and when responding the cursor moves on its own and/or very erratically. When on safari the window suddenly zooms in or highlights words.

My macbook pro is running very slow with some strange mouse and window movements. The trackpad is very unresponsive and when responding the cursor moves on its own and/or very erratically. When on safari the window suddenly zooms in or highlights words and looks them up via dictionary. I currently have a wireless mouse connected and I am still having the same problems.
I fee like I may have a virus or my laptop is perhaps being accessed remotely. All of the sharing options are unchecked.
HELP PLEASE
Very worried!!

Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
     Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the
     COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and
     after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears.
     Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
     Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).
4. Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion, Mavericks from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
Reinstall the 10.9.2 update: OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo).

There is no red underline for misspelled words in Safari on Ipad Air since update

Since updating to the new IOS I don't see that red scribbly underline under misspelled words in Safari (or Google Chrome) anymore on my Ipad Air. I like that underline, cause it's an easy and fast way to see when I mispelled something or made a typo.
The spellcheck function on my Ipad is turned on (the autocorrect and suggestion function are turned off). I do see that red underline in other text programs, like Quickedit, Facebook Messenger and Notes. But not in Safari or in Google Chrome and Google Drive/Documents
I already tried to no avail:
turning the spellcheck, suggestions and autocorrect on and off
Resetting the Ipad (with the home and sleep/wake button)
Deleting my Safari and Google history data
Deleting my dictionary data
Deleting the emoji keyboard
How do I get it to work again?

I suspect that's an actual change to iOS 8, but if it isn't and you think it's a glitch or bug, then open a ticket with Apple Support, so they can get it registered as a problem, so the Apple software people can fix it ...

Change color for highlight words

I'm using the highlight words column attribute for a report with a search parameter. I was wondering if there is a way to change the color of the text that is highlighted? The html that is generated wraps the highlighted word with search string

sql functions like INSTR, SUBSTR, and DECODE are good for this...
select decode(instr(upper(emp.ename),upper(:P1_SEARCH)),
0, emp.ename,
substr(emp.ename,1,
instr(upper(emp.ename),upper(:P1_SEARCH)) - 1)
|| '' ||
substr(emp.ename, instr(upper(emp.ename),upper(:P1_SEARCH)),
length (:P1_SEARCH))
|| '' ||
substr(emp.ename, instr(upper(emp.ename),upper(:P1_SEARCH)) + length(:P1_SEARCH) )) my_column_alias
from emp;
...hope this helps,

I have highlighted words in an .iba file. Now I need to increase the space before (and/or after) the paragraph it's contained in. If I increase the space after, the height of the highlighting increases also. Is there any way around this?

Change highlight word color in a report

Hi All,
I have question regarding highlighting search words in a report. I used APEX's "Highlight Words" column attribute to achieve this. My search string is a list of words 'table,chair,sofa' It works perfectly fine showing the matching words in Red color. But I want to change the color to yellow. If it's a single word then I think I can do it using the replace SQL function and change the color using the But in my case I have a list. Any advise appreciated...
Thanks in advance.

Another option would be to include relevant SQL to do your highlighting. E.g.
select replace(replace(object_name,'table','table'),'chair','chair') object_name from bits_of_furniture
It's certainly not pretty but the above would highlight all tables and chairs in yellow. What you could do is put together a PL/SQL function which accepts as parameters: the string to make replacements in, a comma-separated list of terms to replace and the colour to highlight with. So your SQL might become:
select highlight(object_name,'chair,table,sofa','yellow') from bits_of_furniture
All you have to do is build the highlight() function... :)
