A small but very irritating bug in Mail: after pressing the spacebar after typing an apostrophe in a word such as "we're", the cursor moves to the left i.e. backwards, and not to the right, effectively deleting a space and not creating one.
When composing an email in Mac Mail I've noticed a small but very irritating bug: pressing the spacebar after typing an apostrophe in a word, e.g. "we're", the cursor moves to the left i.e. backwards, and not to the right, effectively deleting a space and not creating one.
Any ideas?
I just recreated this problem on my iMac (wired KB, no wireless KB) by changing Mail > Preferences > Composing > Spellcheck from "as I type" to "never". Then type a contraction ending in 're and the space bar causes the cursor to jump back as others have stated, to the spot 'r|e
Next, I went into System Preferences > Keyboard > Text, and turned off "use smart quotes" and the problem went away again.
From this point (smart quotes off, spell checking never), if I turn Smart Quotes ON, the problem returns.
The problem is dependent on the state of both settings.
The spacebar in Mail "works" if I have either of the following setting combinations:
Keyboard: smart quotes OFF, Mail: check spelling ANY SETTING
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: check spelling AS I TYPE
Other combinations FAIL
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check spelling NEVER
Keyboard: smart quotes ON, Mail: Check Spelling WHEN I CLICK SEND
Looks to me like there's a bug in Mail > Preferences > Check spelling > NEVER and WHEN I CLICK SEND that interacts badly with Keyboard > Smart quotes ON.
Thanks.

I updated my iPad to 7.0.6 but I find the new look very irritating. In mail I can no longer swipe left on a message to erase it. The font in calendar is so small I can't read my appointments. I happen to like the yellow paper that was in notes. Can any of these preferences be adjusted?
You have to swipe from right to left to delete mail.
In the settings, accessibility you can make fonts bolder, that helps a bit.
THe yellow paper...sorry, no tweak for that unless you find a different notes app to use. -
Can any one help. How do i get my google app to open on my iphone? It just flashes up but does not open. I have deleted this app, and backed and restored and downloaded again but has not made any difference. Thanks.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
Then restart your iPad.
See if that makes a difference. -

I have this question too (0) Categories: Mail and Address bookCheck the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional. -
Where does Mail keep its hidden cache of auto-complete email addresses. I am plagued with an incorrect email address I can't get rid of. Have made sure it's deleted from Contacts and made sure it's deleted from "Previous Recipients" list in Mail. But it still keeps reappearing ... obviously a secret cache file hidden somewhere?
Autocomplete has nothing to do with this problem.
From the Mail menu bar, select
Window ▹ Connection Doctor
Look for a disused SMTP (outgoing mail) account in the window that opens. Double-click it. Another window will open, showing a list of all the outgoing mail accounts. The unwanted one will be selected. Click the minus-sign button to delete it, then click OK.
If there's more than one unwanted account, repeat. -
It's simple... I want the Illustrator pen tool to ALWAYS make corner annchor points and NEVER smooth. Right now I have to convert every single one of them, or I have to do a work around every time I draw a line and make one of the handles disappear. Is there some simple setting out there that will just "make it so?"@
The video I am watching this guy is just dragging every line to make curves. And every anchor point is a corner. He is not switching back and forth between the pen and the anchor points tool, and he is not using the convert points tool. He draws a curved line and starts another straight line only to curve it with a click and a drag. It is super efficient, and I could save a world of time if I could figure out what he is doing.

My ipad is not responding, i accdentaily touch delete all contents and setting
my ipad is not responding , i accdentaily touch delete all contents and setting ,and now it shows a blanck sreen, with the itune icone and uv cord
Assuming that you installed iTunes on your computer, you have to connect your iPad to your computer with the cable - plug the pin connector end into the iPad and the USB connector to a USB port on your computer. iTunes should start up on its own. If it doesn't start up, launch it yourself.
Then follow the directions in this support article.

Somehow, I created 2 Appe ID's...1 from home and 1 from work. I purchased additional space on iCloud with one ID, but I need to transfer it to the other.
Having read some other posts I think I have answered my question. If I was somehow able to terminate my old (unwanted) account and Apple ID I would no longer be able to access the material I bought with that ID- so I'm stuck. I have to learn how to manage that situation.
This is unfortunate for Apple consumers. Life is complicated for families these days and this "rule" although it is in place to prevent cheating and fraud makes things unnnecessarily difficult for me and my family as in my niaevity (sic) with the online world I bumbled into this situation. Not everyone is out to rip off Apple - one of the worlds richest corporations- or the entertainers who market their work through iTunes.I would just like to be able to enjoy the entertainment I pay for where and when I like to on whichever computer is available to me. And I'm not terribly computer literate.
It would have been nice to have had the opportunity to speak just once to a real person in the employ of Apple to explain my situation to them. -

Hi Kazmania89,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
If you require additional assistance with this, click on the link below for guidance:

Once you are able to gain access to the old Apple ID, this article may be helpful:

I have purchased music, apps, or books with multiple Apple IDs. How can I get all of this content onto my iOS device?
First, you need to copy all of your purchased content so it is on the same Mac or PC with iTunes. This computer should be the one you sync your device with. For more information on how to move your content, see these articles:
Mac: iTunes for Mac: How to copy purchases between computers
PC: iTunes for Windows: How to copy purchases between computers
Next, authorize your computer to play content with each Apple ID in iTunes. Once your computer is authorized for all your content, it can be synced to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Cheers,

Hi Community,
for a few months I have been struggling with a SAP Max DB database Studio issue and finally, I had to give up the idea of being able to fix this on my own. I am desperately seeking for help and I hope that you may be able to give me a hint, advice or even a solution.
This is what happened:
I used to run Windows 7 on 32bit. I also had Database Studio installed - which was running fine then.
After a harware upgrade, I am running now Windows 7 on a 64 bit System. All my files from my local disk (C:\) have been restored and copied onto my new system.
I reinstalled Database Studio Version 7.9.08.09 onto my new System. But on the first try to start the program I received the error that said "Could not Access to user Management.See Window -> Show View-> Event Log Viewer for more Details."
However the Event Log Viewer was empty.
After searching the web for a solution, I followed the advice given in this community and deinstalled Database Studio and deleted the C.\Users\MyAccount\sdb folder manually.
I reinstalled Database Studio and started it as Administrator.
However, the error is still appearing.
And, what makes it even worse is : now I am not able to uninstall Database Studio anymore.
When I run SAP MaxDB Installation Manager and select the instance of database Studio to be uninstallled I am receiving the error:
"ERR: Unhandled Exception: Can't call method: "GenPackageList" on an undefined value at SDB/Install/Gui/Dialogs/SelectInstance.pm line 328"
Any advice is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
AgnieszkaHello Yashwanth,
thank you for your quick Response.
Yes, I downloaded and installed the 64 bit Version of dbstudio.
I downloaded and ran the following .exe file: maxdb-studio-win-64bit-x86_64-7_9_08_09.exe
I am running the following Java-Version:
Java Plug-in 1.6.0_45
Using JRE version 1.6.0_45-b06 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
I myself am not a SAP customer. However, the Company I am working for is a SAP customer.
Can you explain in Detail, how to create a ticket with SAP?
Thanks,

when FF 3.6.8 loads it loads everything except the the classic window buttons (minimize, maximize and exit ) do not appear in the top right hand corner as the normally would. it seems as though the page has been cut off or the monitor screen is to little for the whole page to load.
It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high.
Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window.
If that works then close Firefox to save that setting.

Deleted photos space is not released
Delete all photos, delete also recently eliminated. But when I enter phone information photographs still occupy almost a gig and says I have 680 photos on the device. If I look at using iTunes tells me the same. How can I do to free that memory space?
Thank You.Team,
We have a table of size 550gigs in size and we truncated the table , truncated sucessfully but space is not released in os level, what action we can take to release the space and this table has only one row and contains the binary data.
Thanks
PGR
Hello,
Yes space wont be released immediately .If large extents are in picture which I assume is your case it goes into deferred drop a background process which will execute after some time( time may vary).See below link for details.
As per BOL if extents are more than 128 it goes in deferred drop.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177495.aspx
You should wait for some time .keep checking the free space
Below discussion will surely help you in understanding.See Jonathan's reply

I have ipad 2 i was trying to install yahoo messnger new version for ipad but the download didnt complete
I connected the ipad to itunes and downloaded yahoo messnger for itunes but it didnt syncing with the ipad
And i cant even delete the incomplete icon of yahoo messengerTry a reset to see if it resumes loading after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Weird effect with my "spaces" and "expose"
All of a sudden today, my expose started acting strangely. It's difficult to explain but here it goes:
I have my spaces set up so that if I move the cursor to the lower left corner all open applications are displayed. But today for some reason, that is no longer working. Now only the application I am working in is open. Furthermore, the other ones are sort of "hidden" down below the dock. They aren't "in" the dock though.
To get on of my other application windows to appear, I have to click on the icon for the application in the dock, ie the original application icon, not the application window. The application window is not in the dock, unless I minimize its window.
But when I click on the application icon, the window will re-appear, re-open, and a little white square box with a hooked arrow appears briefly as the window re-opens.
I hope this is making sense.Yes I messed with the preferences for fifteen minutes but I couldn't find anything that looked like what is happening on my computer. I'm using ox 10.5.8.
It just started doing this out of nowhere, as far as I can tell. You know how you can have several opens open at once. Well I can't do that now. Only one at a time, and all the others disappear, they don't go to the dock, but to this hidden place. I can't access them unless I click on the original application icon in the dock.
