What is the deal with the new Mavericks version of the Mail program..?  I cannot simply double click in the address book to place names in the address line?

I can no longer simply double click on a name in the contacts list to place that name into an an email??
You now have to select a single name(or a group), and hit the "TO" button.
Have the engineers at Apple gone nuts??  They just made it more difficult to add names??  Are they going for a windows workability??
If anyone out there can tell me how to go back to this feature, please, please let me know..
Adding addresses is now not working very well....??  Please help!
Randy

OK, JUST TO CLARIFY:  I OPEN MY MAIL PROGRAM.  I then start a new letter.  I then click on the little person icon button which opens up the address/contacts list.  This action does not open up the address book as such.
I simply want to select various contacts from the list.  But now I can no longer simply go down the list to double click on those contacts that I want to automatically drop into the TO field of my new message.  It does not work any longer in Mavericks??
Now I have to click on each contact, and then go up, and click again on the TO button ....
Can Apple please stop making tasks more difficult??  The previous version worked great, and now it has been upgraded so that it doesn't work as simply as it did??
Frustrated.!!!

    The apps in the multitaskbar should appear like pages on the whole display. To close them, just swipe from the bottom to the top. you can select single apps for closing, when you swipe them like you would swipe your homescreens.

  • With Mavericks I have to hold command key down and double click to get a sub folder to open in a new window.  Can I go back to just double clicking ?

    With Mavericks I have to hold command key down and double click to get a sub folder to open in a new window.  Can I go back to just double clicking ?

    Of course. To do it, open a Finder window, go to Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > General, and untick "Open folders in tabs instead of new windows".

  • In finder, or say anything else such as downloaded files, I have to push open with in order to open the file. If I simply double-click on a document from finder, it does not open.

    Hey guys. I have this problem where when I try to open say a document from finder, I have to push "open with."
    Simply double-clicking does not work. I would greatly appreciate it if anybody could help.
    Another unrelated problem is that when I push to open itunes, it says that it is on a locked disk.
    Thanks

    Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.  In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
    For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)
    For .zip files use Archiver - same folder as above - or download TheArchiver - MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.

  • What is the "Audio line in" port for?

    I have a microphone headset but plugging the mic cord into the audio line in port does nothing. Similarly, when I tried plugging a cable from the "tape out" of my audio amplifier into that port for dubbing purposes, nothing happened. In both cases I can achieve what I want using an iMic and a USB port. So what's the audio line line port for? How can I use it?

    Check your Sound settings in system preferences and audio midi set-up, Brian. It may be that you have it set to accept sound in through USB at present. Another possibility is that the port has "stuck" on "optical input".

  • What is the maximal line length of type any internal table

    Dear all,
    who can tell me what is the maximal line length of type any internal table.
    Thanks!

    There is no limit to the record length of an internal table.
    There is overall memory limit for every program (as setup by your basis). So, depending on the width of the ITAB, the number of records in ITAB is limited by the assigned memory.

  • What is the maximum lines in sales order

    hello friends,
    what is the maximum lines that we can create in a single sales order?
    how about in a sales invoice, how many is the maximum lines?
    thanks!

    There is no limit on the sales order lines, we do have 1800 to 2000 lines sales orders in our system.
    But the AR side the defult value for the Profile option AR: Maximum Lines is 100k, if you anticipate more lines than 100k for each invoice run then you have to modify the profile option.

  • What is the iphone line out impedance

    using the dock connector, what is the iphone line out impedance?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Is your Powerbook one that has Optical in and out? If it is, then it has SPDIF ports instead of the usual minijacks of older Powerbooks. You can tell by opening Apple menu -> About This Mac -> More Info -> selecting Audio (Built-in). If SPDIF is mentioned, then you have Optical in and out.
    If it is, then I found this interesting article which may help you out:

  • Why can I no longer open a PE image directly in PE 11 by simply double clicking the image?

    In contrast to previous versions, for whatever reason, I cannot open a PhotoShop Elements image directly by simply 'double clicking' on the image. When I do this with PE 11, PE 11 opens blank and I then have to go to the Open menu and find the image I want to open (the very image I 'clicked' on in the first place)? Why this extra time consuming step?
    Thanks,
    Dale

    Thanks for the reply.
    However, I don't understand your answer.
    To refresh my memory, I just now selected a jpg. image and opened it with PSE 10. When PSE 10 opened, there was my image, ready to be worked with. However, when I repeated the exact same thing with with PSE 11, PSE 11 opened a blank page and I had to go to the Open menu and reopen my image. I don't understand why this extra step is required with PSE 11.
    The screen shot you suggested means nothing to me in post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4876725#4876725 as I've no idea where it comes from or what I'm looking at.
    Can you provide further details?
    Thanks.

    Go to the right side of the list view and place your cursor over the edge until it turns into a double arrow, then click and drag to the left.
    If using the Classic layout, go to the bottom of the screen and after getting the double arrow, click and drag up.

  • How can I save pages as a document with the new Mavericks version of pages?

    Is there any way to save a pages document as a Microsoft document?  Additionally, is there any way to save a numbers document as an Excel document?
    Since I have downloaded the new Mavericks software with the new Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, I can't save anything as a Microsoft document anymore.  Can anyone please help?  I'm a student needing an answer because most institutions only use Microsoft.  This is an extremely upsetting fall back for Apple if there isn't a way to accomplish these activities.
    Also, if anyone has any information if Apple is going to provide new drivers for old HP printers and scanners, please inform me.  My multi-functional printer is obsolete (according to a phone conversation with HP).  Currently, I have to jump through hoops to get the scanner to work and Preview crashes most of the time (with the Mavericks update). 

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    iWork does not let you save a document as an Office document by default, so you have to do some extra steps. First open the document and go to File menu (on the menu bar) > Export to, and choose the Office app to create a document for Microsoft Office.
    Respecting to printer drivers, Apple does not provide newer drivers for an obsolete printer. Instead, see if Gutenprint works > http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php

  • I'm TRULY not trying to be a smart a##.... but what is  the bottom line??

    I've been on the boards and forums since yesterday watching and waiting for the iPhone 3G roll out and iPod Touch software updates. It seems to me that based on everything I've been reading, that the entire roll out has been a failure. The @me.com has been a problem since Wednesday, no one that I've heard of has had a new iPhone activated ( based on what I'm reading on the boards) , and no one has been able to get their iPod Touch software upgraded successfully.
    Is this an accurate observation? I'm REALLY REALLY not trying to be one of those negative posters that only point out the issues Apple is / has done poorly. I am relatively new to Apple and love what I have ( 7 iPods, 2 Apple TV's and a MacBook ), but it just seems Apple totally missed the mark on this. I am ABSOLUTELY open to being corrected if my observation is incorrect, but I would like to see some dialogue on this.... what do you think has happened? How could something of this magnitude have occured? I'm really interested in hearing from others...others that can talk about it intelligently as apposed to just taking the opportunity to dump on Apple.
    Thanks !
    Chuck :- )

    Hindsight is 20x20 and it's easy to arm chair quarterback but, here's my $0.02.
    Apple tried to deploy the iPhone 3G, the iPod touch 2.0, the App Store, and a completely re-vamped .mac all in one day. It was ambitious and I'm sure they had a good reason to do it all at once. Perhaps the sync service from MobileMe require the new code on the phone and iPod, or the iTunes store needed to be updated in an all or nothing mode. I don't know, but I've been involved in upgrades of web services and there's always some wrinkle in your plan when you do these things.
    It's frustrating and I don't like the idea that I've got to wait for this mess to get cleaned up. Just imagine another company trying this ambitious of a new product roll out? Imagine Microsoft rolling out a new Zune, a revamped MSN, and a new version of Windows Mobile all in one day. How about Blizzard trying to roll out Diablo 3, Starcraft 2, and World of Warcraft expansion #2 on the same day.
    For some reason Apple decided that rolling out all these products on the same day was the thing to do. Maybe they needed to break AT&T's enrollment server in order to escape a bad business deal? Maybe the guys at Apple product management who did the roll out planning decided it let the "new guy" do all the work because he's not a great guy to work with. With organizations as large as AT&T and Apple there could be any number of reasons. I'm guessing we'll never really know so I'm going to try to come up with something silly and entertaining, like:
    Some junior execs at Apple got "double dog dared" at some management symposium to try to roll out as many products in one days as possible and thus we have 11 July 2008
