Microsoft has finally addressed this issue!

[Service Pack 2 (14.2.0), 110MB: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29419 -> you don't have to download this]
Update 14.2.3, 110MB: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30214
These are all pre-required...
This update adds the ability to select a default text encoding for composing new messages.The encoding that is selected in composing preferences will be applied to all new messages that are sent from Mac Outlook. To access composing preferences, select Outlook, select Preferences, and then select Composing. The new preference is Preferred encoding for new messages.

  • When i send an email with greek characters in the body, the recipient receive it in an unreadable form.

    When i send an email with greek characters in the body, many recipients (not all) cannot read it.
    At the same time when i use the internet mail it can be read successfully by the recipient.
    I have already checked the encoding settings in the Fonts in order to be "unicode (UTF-8)".
    What else can i check?
    Thanks in advance.

    There are some language add ons that support emails from other languages that you can check out: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/thunderbird/extensions/language-support/?sort=popular]
    The recipient, if they also use thunderbird may need to have a language pack to read the email: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/language-tools/]
    You may also need to have them check their interpreter to make sure the email is being received in the same format it is being sent.

  • When I hit + to open a new tab, I always get Yahoo. How can I stop this?

    When I click on the plus (+) symbol to open a new tab on the Firefox tab bar I always get the Yahoo home page and cannot get a blank tab. No matter what I do, I always get Yahoo. How do I get Yahoo to go away? Or better yet, how do I kill Yahoo?
    Frank Segars

    A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
    If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.

    Until your phone number is verified and activated you won't be able to select it in Caller ID. (You will probably notice that it says "waiting for activation'" under iMessage.)  This has been widely discussed in this forum and there is no one solution that works for everyone.  If you search the forum for "iMessage waiting for activation" you'll get a number of posts on this; you may find a solution that will work for you.  Some of these include:
    Go to Settings>General>Date & Time, make sure Set Automatically is set to On.
    Be sure you are able to send and receive messages.
    Call your carrier to see if they are blocking premium texts or third party texts.
    Also make sure in Settings>General>Date & Time that Set Automatically is turned to ON.  If not turn it on then go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    If the machine was upgraded to Lion 10.7.x by the original owner then you bought an illegal license of Lion and also of any other applications that the seller  said came pre-installed, this assumes the seller did not include original install media. In that case you need to contact the seller for the original install DVDs that came with the machine re-install up to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and then purchase Mountain Lion ($20) and the applications you want or need. If the seller cannot come up with the original install discs then you can buy them from a nominal cost from AppleCare..

  • FaceTime freezes when same room has no problems. The picture is high resolution. There are no freezes when calling my daughter's iPad but the picture is lower resolution. Can I troubleshoot this?

    FaceTime freezes when I call my son's iPad. Calling his iPhone in the same room has no problems. The picture is high resolution. There are no freezes when calling my daughter's iPad but the picture is lower resolution. Can I troubleshoot this?

    Thanks Mario, but I tried everything there before posting my question. I may not have been clear in my question since I accidently recorded the whole question as the title and tried to edit. In brief: I have no trouble connecting with my daughter's iPad or my son's iPhone. However, his iPad is sending much higher resolution pictures and we disconnect after about a minute.  Oddly, he can hear and see me while my screen first freezes, then goes black and gives me a message of "reconnecting" until it quits trying and shows the buttons to end or redial. The picture quality difference is what is leading me to believe it is bandwidth related. However, I get anywhere from 5 to 10 MB download speeds; usually closer to 10. Last summer, I had 4 granddaughters on their iPads, a grandson on his gaming device and me on cell phone or pc, all using the bandwidth at once with no complaints. If there is a way to lower his outgoing resolution, I think that would help.

  • My old MobileMe account surfaced when I was on a support call. I didn't discover it until the case was closed. How can I replace this obsolete account with my current iCloud account?

    My old MobileMe account surfaced when I was on a support call. I didn't discover it until the case was closed. How can I replace this obsolete account with my current iCloud account?

    Do you mean that you were using the Apple ID which is your ex-MobileMe address? It's still an Apple ID, even though MobileMe itself is dead, and there's nothing to stop you from using it as an ID with Support, or logging in here or in iTunes with it. You should make sure you have a functioning non-Apple email address associated with it.
    Did you migrate your MobileMe account to iCloud before 1 August last? If so, you can set up an iCloud account using it, or if you have already set up a new and separate iCloud account you can still log in with it in System Preferences>Mail, Contacts and Calendars so that it runs alongside your iCloud account.
    If you didn't migrate you can still reactivate the address the same way.
    Anything where you've logged in with the ex-MobileMe address, such as support for something you registered using it or a server such as iTunes, will need to continue using it.

  • When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?

    When I create a New Folder (on the desktop or in Finder), the system uses the Generic Document Icon instead of the Generic Folder Icon. How can I change this back?
    All of a sudden I noticed that most of the folders on my computer were no longer using the folder icon, but the generic document icon. I had to manually change back the icon being used by opening Get Info for each folder and copying and pasting the generic folder icon from some folders that remained unchanged. Now whenever I create a New Folder (right click -> "New Folder"), the icon that shows up is the generic document icon (white page with top right corner turned down). And I have to manually change it so it shows up as a folder in Finder or on my desktop. I don't know why or how this switch happened. All of the folders now on my computer look ok, but I need to change the default so when I create a New Folder it uses the correct icon.
    I have also Forced Relaunch of my Finder and rebooted the system. I downloaded Candybar but am not sure what will fix anything, so I haven't proceeded.
    Anyone know how I can do this? Thanks.

  • How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells?  In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly.  When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up.  How can I do this?

    How can I move columns in Numbers without distorting the formula in other cells?  In Excel I can cut and paste entire columns and the formula in other cells adjusts accordingly.  When I do it in Numbers, the formula messes up.  How can I do this?
    For example: I have formulas in columns D and F that relate to columns C to CU
    If I want to move one column from one position to another (say S to T), the formula loses the colums that was moved, i.e. it doesn't recognize it has moved, rather sees it as deleted...  How can I do this without distorting the formula?

    Thanks for the feedback.
    If I often urge askers to look at the available resources, it's because  a large range of questions asked in the forums are already answered in these documents.
    As they are PDFs, they are easy to search in.
    CAUTION
    Download them while they are available.
    Given what is delivered with iBooks Author, I'm afraid that we will not get such easy to use documents.
    Searching infos in the  iBooks Author documentation available on line is awfully cumbersome and a lot of embedded links are wrongly flagged this way. In the Help files they aren't links but underlined strings.
    It seems that the tool used to generate the web pages was wrongly configured.
