Appearance and Length of Lines in E-Mail and elsewhere
I'm using a MacMini OS 10.2.9. Everything was great, then on start-up all was different. My Desktop picture had disappeared, everything was in purple etc. My e-mails have long line length and I am unable to shorten. Have looked at preferences etc. and nothing helps. (I put back the desktop picture, but everything else is beyond me.)
I don't recall if I recently updated software, but suspect that is why everything is messed up.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm quite frustrated. This font is not what I thought was selected, either!
went into Internet Access, Seeing Tab, black&white to left and uncheck Grayscale.
I didn't resolve it; you guys did!!!
Thanks.

I have created a mail box with 22 names in it. When I want to send an e-mail to this address and its recipients, only 7 of the 22 names appear in the address line of the e-mail. Why won't the remaining 15 names and addresses appear in the address line?
okay, this is actually a common problem. from your main screen select the blackberry key (next to track ball)->options->security->general settings->include address book->no->reset phone->problem should be fixed!
let me know if this works for you,

Mail message appearing and then quickly disappearing
I keep seeing alerts for email messages pop up in the top right corner of my screen. They disappear before I can even see who they are from. When I check my inbox, there's nothing. Nothing in junk mail or any other folder either.
I am getting email alerts for the emails that do end up in my inbox, but these alerts that appear and then quickly disappear are driving me nuts. There are a few forums I'm a part of and other services I use like eBay that I am not receiving emails from at all (except password reset types of emails).
My guess is that Mail is deciding that these emails are junk and filtering them, but I have no idea where they are going or how to stop this.
Any ideas?I'm not sure this will work, but try disabling Mail alerts in Notifications, log out/in, and then set them back up.

I have many problems with my mail since I moved to mavericks. The filter is very sensitive, read mail appears as unread, I can't drag mail to the folders and more. I can't update the mail program as directed on this page, update says my system is updated
I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
Disk Utility can verify my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
Good luck! -
Several contacts have the same email address. How can I choose which contact name appears on the address line in Mail?
you can't really, but you might be able to filter them by message content into folders for each, or color them with tags

There appear to be big problems with Mavericks Mail, particularly if it's used for Gmail. Have other users noticed that it slows to a crawl and can't reload the contents of a folder instantly....Is there a fix coming?
There is a large thread relating to Gmail, but nothing that sounds like that.
Nobody here knows what Apple is going to do.
You might try removing the Gmail account and then add it back in. -
On start up green vertical lines appear and then the become spots and imac freezes

Unfortunately this sounds like a hardware failure. Run Apple Hardware Test in extended modeat least 2-3 times back to back. If errors appear then you have confirmed my suspicion. However if no errors appear unfortunatelyyou are not out of the woods l yet because AHT is not the more reliable test. If you do know know how to run AHT please refer to:

I have two e-mail addresses and on the left hand side in mail if i expand the sent box one account has an exclamation mark appeared and some mail has deleted it's self??
You can continue to use them as Apple ID's, change the rescue address (as you know)
You can use your iCloud address, but it won't be an alias, it's a full email address. -

Hello Bill,
Who is your eMail provider, the part after the @ sign?
In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the message?
Then click the Show Details button & Check again.

I have purchased new iPod Touch from Uk for english use in France. When trying to set up and log into iCloud i get "Verification Failed. The Internet connection appears to be off line." My internet is on line via my Livebox so what am I doing wrong?
Have you gone into Settings to verify that your ipod is connected to some router? Have you logged in with the security code (if there is one defined for that router)? If it says the internet connection is offline, then the ipod is not properly connecting to the internet. Perhaps the router is the problem - new iDevices require routers have the latest firmware. Older appliances might connect through them, but many users have found that their routers don't work with newer devices.
Try doing this again at some public wifi area as a test. -
MY I pad indicates that Inhave a full strong Wifi signal
but when I attempt to go on line via Safari or any of my apps I receive a response ( it appears you are off line)
my my wife has also identical IPad using the same user name and ID and she is not experiencing any similar problems
could you please helpTry rebooting your modem.
Unplug both your modem and your wireless router.
Plug modem back in and wait a good 3 minutes for modem to completely boot up.
Then plug your wireless router back in and wait another 2 minute for that to boot up.
Then turn iPad off and back on.
Make sure you and you wife are on the same network
Hope it works. -
Running Firefox 15.0. Hotmail suddenly changed appearance and my page is not at the bottom of the screen. The top 5/6 of the page is a series of horizontal blue strips. Text in the blue section is the Windows Live titles like "Home, Devices, Mobile, etc". When I try to compose a new message, text from the blue area partially covers the "To" button, so I have to position the cursor at the very bottom of the button to enter an address. I tried Hotmail in IE and it appears just fine, so it must be a compatibility problem between Hotmail & Firefox. Hotmail has not responded to my email questions. I could understand if this happened at the very beginning of a session, just after I power up, but this happened after I had been active in Hotmail and other sites. Other sites are not affected, just Hotmail, and just in Firefox.
Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems.
*<b>View > Zoom > Reset</b> (Ctrl+0 (zero); Cmd+0 on Mac)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Zoom_text_of_web_pages
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a (too) high value can cause issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.

It is better not to increase the minimum font size, but use an extension to set the default page zoom to prevent issues with overlapping text.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I want to uninstall Acrobat reader. I got support in the community to access my HD and to send to trash the internet plugs in for PDF viewer, but when I try to download a PDF from internet a black screen appears and preview doesn't open
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
