What happened to auto adding appointments from Mail to iCal?
I've just upgraded and might have missed a setting somewhere but Mail 3.6 used to auto detect possible appointments in the body text of an email and provide an mouse over option to automatically add the info (if in fact it was an invitation) to iCal. Similarly it offered this function when one mouse overed somebody's signature at the end of an email, to automatically add their info to Addressbook.
I don't have this functionality in Mail 4.
Any ideas?

brantwedel did you notice the post was made over a year ago when iOS 6 was in beta.

What happened to my editing tools from iPhoto now that the iPhoto app does not work with iOS 8?
Unfortunately, the advanced editing tools from iPhoto have not been migrated to Photos. There are no brushed adjustments in "Photos".

What happened to saved previously used e-mail addresses?
What happened to saved previously used e-mail addresses? I don't use Outlook for contacts.
I REALLY hope Adobe will fix this, though I don't think they see a problem here. I don't use outlook, and I am truly frustrated by the slow process of copying and pasting the same email address over and over. The original AdobeSendNow was a fine program, but the new version is really buggy and I am hoping this gets straightened out soon. I also am having error messages when I send files.
In general I am very happy with Adobe products, and wish to stay with them, but I may have to start shopping another file sending program that doesn't give me error messages 25% of the way through a send process. I work on short turnaround times as part of my exceptional customer service, and I can't afford to have that reputation compromised.
(To Adobe's credit, as of today, March 11th, they are responding in a timely matter, and are looking into the issue for me, so I will give them a chance to work on this error problem). -

Drag appointment from Mail into iCal - won't automatically go into iCloud
When I drag an appointment from Mail into iCal, it saves the event on the calendar "Home - On my Mac" even though I have told iCal to default as "Home (iCloud)" Is there any way I can get Mail to drop into iCal on my default iCloud account so iCloud (and thus iPhone etc) updates automatically?!
Thanks!Delete the On my Mac calendar

What happened to the attachment icon in Mail?
I just upgraded to Lion, and I noticed that there wasn't an icon for mail attachments. I looked into preferences and no option there. I have to go into the menu to attach a file. What happened? That seems to be a pretty basic function.
You're right - it's not there, but it's such a long time since I've used it, I hadn't missed it! You can either go to File > Attach file, or do what I always do which is to open the folder containing the doc(s) you want to attach and simply drag onto the body of the email. You can also select more than one doc at once by using the Shift key (or the Apple key if they are not sequential) and attach several.

What happened to the "show" option in mail settings (ipad2)?
WWhat happened to the "show" options in mail settings (ipad2 8.1.1)?
Nothing at all.
It still works the same way for me as it always did. It might help if you specified which email provider you use - for instance I believe that Gmail has its own way of deleting/archiving emails so you need to be more specific than ..."what happened to the trash option in the new iOS mail". -
Hey, Im sure that when I first used mail if someone sent me an email with their home address in it I could hover over said address and would be given the option to add it to my address book....but I dont seem to be able to anymore. Did this feature ever exist or have I made it up? And if it did how come It doesnt work for me anymore?
CheersDid this feature ever exist or have I made it up?
I can't say for sure because I'm not running 10.5. But if you hover over anything else, do you have any options to do anything with that data? If so, then I would guess that this feature never existed, since it would rely on Data Detectors, which you have no visible option to turn off. You can certainly add contacts to Address Book from Mail, but at least in 10.4.x that's a menu option, so I can't speak to whether or not that changed in 10.5.x.
Your profile says you're running 10.5.1; if that's true, is there some reason you haven't yet updated to 10.5.4? If you're already running that, you should update your profile so it's accurate.

Lotus Notes (Domino) Meeting Invitations from Mail to iCal
I use an iMac at work and a MacBook Pro at home. They recently switched to a Notes-based calendar program at work, and since I don't have the Notes client installed on either machine (someone from our IT department has spent about four hours trying to install it on the iMac with no success) and the web application only works with IE 6, and there is no provision for synching the calendar with my PDA, when I heard that the e-mail meeting invitations could be imported into iCal, I was all over that.
When I opened iCal on the iMac I found that there was a "Work" calendar, and iCal's "Automatically retrieve invitations from Mail" box was checked, there were no entries in the Work calendar--or any other calendar.
When I initially looked into it, I found several threads (e.g. http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5186410) in the iCal forum about time zones not being imported correctly (I wish my problems were that minor!) from Lotus Notes meeting invitations. But these threads showed vCal messages and mentioned error dialogs. I hadn't seen any dialogs, and my meting invitations are just plain text messages like this:
======================
Meeting Invitation: Norman Conquest has invited you to a meeting
Meeting Details
Subject: Let's Kill an Hour, Shall We?
Begins: 11/26/07 9:00:00 AM
Ends: 11/26/07 10:00:00 AM

Chair: Norman Conquest
Required Invitees: Upton O'Good, Natalie Attired, Hugh Mility, Justin Case
Optional Invitees:

======================
So I just assumed I was foiled again because the messages were not in the right format.
Later I happened to open my MacBook Pro, and, much to my surprise, I found that a small number of meetings had actually found their way into iCal, and in at least one case I know of, one has actually been rescheduled! I could hardly contain myself.
At first I thought the small number of meetings was simply due to the fact that I receive most of my work e-mail at work, on the iMac, so only those meeting invitations that I happened to open for the first time on my MacBook Pro had been imported. However, this turned out not to be the case, as I have observed many cases in which I have received new, unread meeting invitations on my MacBook Pro which have not been entered in iCal.
But what's really got me is that this whole process is so inaccessible! You'd think there would be preferences where you could tell Mail what kind of invitations to look for and tell iCal which calendar to put them in. But no. There's just one checkbox to turn the process on or off. You just check it and cross your fingers.
Just to deepen the mystery a little bit, I do know of one other Mac user who says his invitations are being reliably entered into iCal, and he can even reply to them. When I asked him for details he told me he just turned it on and it worked.
Is there anyone out there who can at least shed a little light on what I've observed, if not help me get this process working at least quasi-reliably? Is this process working for anybody else out there?I use an iMac at work and a MacBook Pro at home.

What happen to auto translation from German to English??
I use a German web site sometime. I used to get it auto translation to English but now it doesn't do this how do I reset this. Seems to be since the latest up date
Same thing happened to me, though mine now says 10/7, I think because I ordered the 64gb version of the 6 plus. So disappointing that Verizon can't shoot straight with answers to these questions, and who knows why mine order was caught in the fraud department. It's never happened before and seemed to be awfully coincidental that it happened as stock for these was limited. Using it as excuse for delaying this shipment? I learned my lesson though and will be ordering through Apple directly or somewhere like BestBuy in the future.
I've filed a complaint with the BBB in regards to this issue with them. Chances are nothing will come of it and I'll never see a resolution till after they get their heads out of the arses. -
What happened to Auto-Correct in the iOS 7 update & can it be fixed?
I am sooo frustrated & I can't take it anymore!!!
My keyboard has essentially taken on a mind of it's own since I did the iOS 7 update. And by the 'coded' messages I receive from family & friends, followed by "#%*+ed Auto-Correct!!!" I know I'm not the only one!
I find it changes words that are spelled correctly & are grammatically sound into something different. It doesn't know what an apostrophe is anymore. It has no sense of humor 'cause it can't figure out how to lol without capitalizing or turning it into something else. (My sister Quoll'ed at me earlier!)
What's goin' on & how can I get it back to the only sorta-sucky, but mostly funny stuff it did in iOS 6?
Thanks.I've observed this too and have written to Apple feedback. Suggest everyone else do so as well.
What's happening is they've attempted to implement an autocorrect system that doesn't just look at the current word but the current word and the previous word. In theory that's a great idea, as sometimes the correct spelling will be dependent on context. Mostly, though, its effects are too aggressive and I find I'm ending up with many more errors than under iOS 6 (and I'm fairly accurate on the iP*).
The thing I specifically complained out – since it makes no sense at all – is the way iOS 7 autocorrect seems to hate commas!
If I type a phrase like "the line, therefore" iOS 7 will attempt to turn "line," into some a word without punctuation, e.g. "lines" or "lined". Only after I've typed "therefore" will it offer me the possibility of returning to what I actually typed ("line,"). And if I'm in a rush and don't tap the [x] on the proposed "correction" in time then I'm stuck with it and have to go back and manually edit. (Or I don't notice and end up sending someone a complete nonsense of a sentence.)
This kind of autocorrect is completely nuts. Especially on the iPhone, where you have to go to a different screen of the keyboard to type a comma, so you're hardly going to do it by accident! And on the iPad the corrections almost never involve adding letters that are physically close to the comma key on the keyboard, so again, you're hardly going to hit the comma key by accident if you want, for example, "lines".
My recommendation to Apple was that auto-correct should always respect all punctuation. (Or there should be a setting we switch on for "respect punctuation".)
And that autocorrect should focus on trying to correct the kinds of "real" errors that are made by tapping on adjacent keys instead of aggressively trying to predict what we're about to say and actually changing our words.
In the meantime, I've set up a custom shortcut [,,] which resolves to [, ] – basically on the same principle as two spaces resolving to a period. When I remember to use it, it mostly works quite well at giving me commas that stay stuck.
