Any way to set line width on outgoing (text) messages?

My messages to a mailing list (and probably elsewhere) sometimes get chopped up by the addition of extra returns, so they're hard to read by the recipient (we've all seen this, especially on messages forwarded several times). I always send text-only email. A correspondent suggest setting my outgoing message line width down to 60 characters to avoid this, but I can't find anywhere in Mail's preferences to do this (I seem to remember such a setting on another email client years ago). I'm embarrassed to report back to my Windows-using correspondent that Apple Mail doesn't offer this option. Can anyone tell me it does, and where?

No, I'm not putting in any extra returns. I seem to remember this from back in the 90s: that some points in the Internet's email system allow lines of only 60 characters' length, so if your message arrives with 72 character (or longer) lines, it'll get all chopped up; and the solution is to set your email client to produce only 60-character lines. But I can't find any way to do this in Mail.

Is there any way to set a password so that txt messages only open when the password is entered

Hello Damien,
There is an option to set a passcode for the entire iPhone. You can use the following steps to set this up:
You can configure a passcode for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using Settings > General > Passcode Lock.
Once enabled, you will be prompted for the passcode whenever you:
Turn on or restart the device
Wake the device
Unlock the screen
Note: You can specify the amount of time the screen must be locked before requiring a passcode.
You can find the full article here:

Is there any way to set column width is GridaBagLayout?

Is there any way to set it up like tables in html - where you specify the width and height of the cell and then place the component inside it - with the component not resizing the cell unless it is larger than the cell area?
Thanks.

Thanks Paul, please excuse the sarcasm - I just found your recommendation funny. I actually found some examples of Box.filler and have created a method for adding one for each column I want:
public void addFillerColumn(int width, int height, int colNum, int rowNum )
panel.add( new Box.Filler(new Dimension(width,height),new Dimension(width,height),new Dimension(width,height)),
new GridBagConstraints( colNum, //gridx
rowNum, //gridy
1, //gridwidth
1, //gridheight
0, //weightx
0, //weighty
GridBagConstraints.WEST, //anchor
GridBagConstraints.NONE, //fill
new Insets(0,0,0,0), //insets(, left,,)
0, //ipadx
0 )); //ipady*/
}

Is there any way to tell to whom a group text message has actually been delivered.

How can you tell to whom a group text message has actually been delivered?

I use Verizon's Messages+ app; when I send a group text, then long press the message, I get a menu and one of the selections is Message info. That will show me the contacts I sent the message to. It doesn't always tell me who got it though - for example, I recently sent a group message to my four kids. The status shows:
Child 1 - Delivered (On Verizon, separate plan/account)
Child 2 - Delivered (On my More Everything plan)
Child 3 - Delivered (On AT & T)
Child 4 - Sent (On T-Mobile)
I got replies from Child 1, 3, 4 - and all the replies all were sent to all in the group. So I know Child 4 got the message and replied to the group, even though it doesn't say delivered.
I guess if it says "Sent" or "Delivered" you can assume it was delivered to the recipients phone. If it did not get sent, it will say it failed to send or something. Whether the recipient has READ it or not can't be determined, unless, of course, they reply. In that case you know they got it and read it.

Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view

When my Finder windows open in column view, all the columns are always VERY wide. I have to then spend time resizing them to a managable width. Is there any way to set default column widths in the Finder's Column view?
<Re-Titled By Host>

No, because you can't set a columns view default.

I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.

Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

Is there any easy & simple way to set specify font to all text

Is there any way to set a specific font to all text of Swing controls (JLabel, JButton, etc)? And their font's style (bold, underscore...) and font's size still remain to their customized settings.
Thanks in advance.
null

perhaps you're just after deriveFont()
run this, you'll see both fonts the same
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
class Testing
public void buildGUI()
    JLabel label_1 = new JLabel("Hello");
    JLabel label_2 = new JLabel("World");
    label_1.setFont(new Font("monospaced",Font.BOLD|Font.ITALIC,12));
    label_2.setFont(label_1.getFont());
    //label_1.setFont(label_1.getFont().deriveFont(36f));//<----------
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    f.getContentPane().add(label_1,BorderLayout.NORTH);
    f.getContentPane().add(label_2,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
    f.pack();
    f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    f.setVisible(true);
public static void main(String[] args)
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
      public void run(){
        new Testing().buildGUI();
}now uncomment the indicated line, recompile/rerun
you'll see the style remains, but the size increased

My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?

My wife and I share an iTunes account. Is there any way to set up a seperate one for her to sync her phone contacts, iCloud and music to without having to purchase all her music again and then share going forward?
It would be so much easier having seperate accounts but we have hundreds of her purchased songs on my account and she would need to be able to access these from her account. Possible?
Also, if we bought a song in future we would want to be able to both have access to it.
Alternatively, what is the easy way to sync two distinctly different contact lists to one iTunes account?
Thank you in advance.

FYI: iTunes account (used to make purchases) is not the same as iTunes library (iTunes on your computer with music, movies, etc.).
ecbclb wrote:
Will we have to create a seperate account for her, or can we all have the same one?
You can but you will not be able to limit what she syncs.
I would like to avoid 'checking' and 'unchecking' individual songs every time one of us tries to synch our ipods to the library.
I don't recommend using (only) the checkmarks to select what to sync.
Each of you can create your own playlists then sync only those playlists.
Then add/delete from your own playlists to change iPod content.
The only time I uncheck items is if I rarely/never want to sync them to anything, such as Christmas music or old audiobooks.
I suggest you each have your own computer login account. Then everyone has their own contacts, calendars, and everything else.
You and your husband can share an iTunes library and let your daughter have her own.

I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wires apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wires apple id for iTunes?

I just got my daughter a new macbook pro. She currently shares my wifes apple id for iTunes on her iTouch. I need to set up an email account for her. Is there any way to set up a new iCloud email account but still use my wifes apple id for iTunes?

No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

Any way to set global variables except EAS console?

Hi pros,
I am searching for a way to set global variables (used by business rules) automatically.
I got several variables which should change each month. I know the rule to set them.
However, I cannot find any way to set them through scripting or something else.
I tried to research EAS repository. The one that I found relevant is HBRVariables table.
I cannot find any tool can help this.
Any one knows how?
Appreciated......
Casp Huang

Yes you can use substitution variables in business rules and they are widely used, it is relatively easy to automate the changing of values for subtitution values.
You can also put a sub var into the default value for a global variable in business rules.
Cheers

Is there any way to set up icloud with Windows XP?

Is there any way to set up icloud using a PC with windows XP?

Yes there is.
There are many threads on this forum discussing this issue already (it's good to search before asking the same quesiton again).
There is a simple hack to get iCloud control panel to work on Windows XP to give you synced access to Contacts, Calenders, Reminders and Bookmarks. It also can be used to set up your me.com mail. Photostream doesn't work.
I found a solution here, have written it up in clearer english and added details re IMAP support for me.com addresses here:
http://xlii.be/s/1ii
In summary:
You need:
Unpacking program e.g. 7-Zip or WinRar
Orca MSI editor
The iCloud setup hack for Windows XP:
Download iCloud Control Panel for Windows.
Open iCloudSetup.exe file with WinRar or 7-Zip and extract.
Navigate to and open the iCloud.msi or iCloud64.msi (for 64bit systems) with Orca.
In the left table select LaunchCondition. Then change in the right table “VersionNT> = 600” to “VersionNT> = 200” and Save.
Run modified iCloud.msi and install.
Run iCloud Control Panel, located in the Windows Control Panel, and set up as you want.
I've had reports that you need to keep the files extracted from the .exe file in the same directory during installaton of the .msi file.
Have fun!
