Apple mail reads/writes in Greek, numbered code everything except English

I loaded older fonts from my older machine unto my MacPro and my apple email became illegible. I called support who has suggested, booting up Word, which runs a dialogue box and tells you what fonts are corrupt and trash them. However, when I do a search for the fonts, frequently I will may have the same font twice, and now I am deleted the good and bad fonts together. This elimination process has been very time consuming. I am still in the "O's" and wondering if there may be an easier way to deal with this problem. My email is still reading and writing gibberish.

Hello, The problem is back. Some emails read legibly. Others, half of the fonts are "greek" the other half is not. Last night I really freaked when a website that I use regularly for business was half "greeked". Word/Excel still has long running lists of what fonts are corrupt. I have many of the same font names, but feel like I am throwing the baby out with the bath water. There is a screen shot for you to peruse. How do I send it to you?

Apple Mail read status does not update correctly

I have one iMac running Mavericks and using Apple Mail to run three IMAP accounts provided by a local Apple Mountain Lion Server.
It exhibits two issues:
Firstly it fails to refresh the view automatically in the message viewer window.
The header at the very top of the window will update live when a new message comes in so that it says "X Messages (Y Unread)" with the correct numbers. The list of messages does not update unless you switch mailboxes, then switch back again. Then they appear instantly.
The second and more critical issue is that the read and unread status of messages is not updating correctly at all. Refreshing the view make no difference. Two of the three accounts are shared with 6 other iMacs running Mountain Lion and Snow Leopard. None of these have an issue.
I have deleted and re-added the accounts several times, I have tried a completely clean new user account. Sometimes the first issue goes away but it returns after a short time.
The next step would be to erase the whole Mac but I am reluctant to go to the hassle as I have a suspicion that this will not make a difference and that there is a glitch with Mail on Mavericks. I have run all updates.

Hi Brenn,
To narrow down the issue, we need more investigation:
1.Does the issue occurs only in Category view? Please check if user 1 set the view to Date and email read status update.
2.Does the issue occurs to user1's own mailbox with the same setting as shared mailbox?
3.If the shared mailbox is in cached mode, please check Account Settings > Change > More Settings... > Adwanced > Use Cached Exchange mode > check Download shared folders.
4.Please switch to online mode for shared mailbox and test the issue.

Hi I have 2 apple id's one which has pulled through everything except my calendars and one which has pulled through just my calendars. How do I move my calendars from one apple id to another?

Hi I have 2 apple id's one which has pulled through everything into icloud except my calendars and one which has pulled through just my calendars. How do I move my calendars from one apple id to another so that I can see everything in icloud with one apple id?

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.

Apple Mail Too Small to Read

I read all my mail through the preview window and each message has a different font size, most too small for me to read. The preference font size doesn't seem to work (Isn't that only for outgoing mail anyway?)
Is there anyway to make all the fonts i read the same size without enlarging the text on each message?

Try this from the very helpful Left Lane blog - it worked for me! http://www.leftlanedesigns.com/blog/fonts-too-small-in-apple-mail/

Why can't Mail read my library files?

I had a computer crash and lost emails that I was able to recover from online storage. These emails have file names with numbers like 39452.emix
When I drag the lost emails into my mail library, they never show up as email files in Apple mail (for example if I search for them through the mail program). The only way I can read them is to double click on the emix file outside of the mail program.
Any clue on how I can import them back into the software?
-I tried archiving them and opening the archive inside of apple mail -- but the still don't show up.
-I 've also tried to put them in different mail folders and mailboxes such as trash and incoming, etc.
-I've tried restarting the computer and the Mail Program during these trials.
For example I can see message 139550.emlx and 139547.emlx, but when I drag in the lost email of 39648.emlx, it does not show up anywhere on a MAIL search (by name, content, date or number).
I have about 1,000 message I need to re import into my MAIL program. They are in the library files, they just are viewable through the MAIL software program.
Thanks!
Kate

Just sticking them in the Library doesn't tell Mail they are there. You have to import them and let Mail put them where they belong: File > Import Mailboxes…. Select "Apple Mail"

How to read write file in HTML5 extension

Hi,
I think it could be very generic question since moving from Flex to HTML5 extension is loosing ability to read write a file in local file system.
I'm trying to write a log file within extension space but It throws error as 'TypeError: Illegal constructor'
new File(csInterface.getSystemPath(SystemPath.EXTENSION)+"/log/Log_"+.getCurrentDateString+".txt");
does someone have solve for this.
Thanks in advance
MM

Yeah, It could be a reason for nested error but I got the error right before executing "getCurrentDateString". But I kind of figured it out as Javascript looses ability to read write file in user file system except Crome browser, you can read more here. However Adobe has added fs API within CEP which allows user to read and write file in user system.
Here is some peace of code on how to do it, complete API reference check here :
var result = window.cep.fs.writeFile(logFilepath, "Your data goes here");
if(result.err != 0)
throw new Error("Result object has error");
However still this does not provide any method to append the content in existing file as a result if you wanted to write kind of log file, every time you need to first read the file and then concatenate your content to file data then write data again to new file. sound hefty to append content?
I'm hoping if any Adobe staff has any comment on this.
Thanks
MM

Apple Mail - 2 questions

First off, let me explain the system I have set up. Before I got a Mac, I had a gmail account which I used as my main account. I also had a university account and I forwarded all university mail to the gmail account. The cool thing about gmail is that it has this function where I can not only read but send emails from my Gmail ID or my University ID. This is handy because it allows me to use gmail all the time (whether I'm emailing a friend or emailing a professor) rather that having to sign in to my university's server to email my professors.
Now, I use Apple Mail which is linked only to the Gmail account that is linked to my University account (hope you get that). The only problem is when I send mails through Apple Mail, it will only send them using my Gmail ID rather than my university ID. I've tried going to Preferences and selecting my outgoing mail server (SMTP) to my university's server but whenever i send a mail through Apple Mail it still sends it out from the Gmail server. What can I do to fix this problem?
Also, when I access Gmail from another computer and send mails, it goes to my Apple Mail as an unread message. How do I set up a filter so that any message sent by me will be "Marked as Read" when it gets to Apple Mail?

Well that stinks. There's no point in me adding the reply-to address if my professors still see that I sent the original mail from my gmail account. A lot of my professors don't read their emails unless if it comes from a University address. In fact, if I try to send a mass email to the class through a non-university address (even with a reply-to my uni address) it will not work.
So can I do this?
1. Keep my gmail account linked to my Uni account (this is a must)
2. Set up Apple Mail so that it receives email from both University account and Gmail account
3. Set up a rule so that all mail from my Gmail account that was sent To: [email protected] is not downloaded or immediately deleted? That way the mail downloaded from my University account is only downloaded once to Apple Mail.

Apple Mail (OS X Mavericks 10.9.1) and Gmail

I have 5 Gmail accounts set up for IMAP configurations and enabled on Apple Mail. None of the 5 accounts in Apple Mail show the same folders as the accounts in Gmail itself. All settings in Gmail are correct and all settings in Apple Mail appear to be correct. I even went in to the Apple Store and the "Genius" new less about the Apple Mail app than I did (and I've only returned to Apple in the last 3 months.)
So how do I get my "Inbox, Sent Mail, Drafts, All Mail, Spam, Trash and Archive" folders to all appear and stay where they are supposed to be?
And yes I have utilized the "rebuild" as well as completely deleting all accounts from Apple Mail and reinitiating them.
I have a MacBook Pro with Retina display and am running OS X Mavericks (10.9.1), and Apple Mail Version 7.2 (1874). All of my updates are current.

You do know 10.9.2 is out, right? So, if you still have 10.9.1, you're not current on updates...
"So how do I get my "Inbox, Sent Mail, Drafts, All Mail, Spam, Trash and Archive" folders to all appear and stay where they are supposed to be?"
Please explain what you mean by this, because that will help us help you better.
So, attach a screenshot of what your Mail looks like.

How do I get iCloud Mail set as preference instead of old Apple Mail?

Every time I click on a hyperlink e-mail address, it opens the old Apple Mail program. How do I set everything to go to iCloud mail?

Open Applications/Utilities/AppleScrupt Editor. Paste in the following:
tell application "Safari"
open location "https://www.icloud.com/#mail"
end tell
Save it with a suitable title and make sure to set 'File format' to 'Application'. Place it anywhere convenient.
Now go to Mail Preferences>General and click the 'Default email reader' menu: choose 'Select' and navigate to your AppleScript.

Apple Mail Photo Attachments

I sent email to two Widows users and one Mac user that contained photos. Neither of the Windows users could see the photos but the Mac user did. I sent the photos 2 ways, the first by pasting into the main body of the message and the second as an attachment. Neither method worked for the Windows users. The photos were jpg and the names contained the jpg extension. (Actually, the first time, the pasted graphics were converted to tiff). Under Edit > Attachments, "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" is checked.
I never had this problem with Entourage. Any suggestions?

Thanks, I'll give that a try. But, in the meantime, what is the explanation? The Mac recipient had no problem, only the Windows users.
Using Entourage, I would have to format the message as html in order to send pasted photos, but I never had a problem like this. Even the attachments did not work with Apple Mail.

Un-installing apple mail add on

Hi
i have some apple mail add-ons that was disabled after my last update to system so from where i can find and remove them as they don't appear in applications folder ?

Many add-ons (like GPGMail) go in your user account Library/Mail/MailBundles and will land up in your user account Library/Mail/MailBundles (Disabled). At least that's where I think they go, I recently cleaned out a broken-by-10.6.6 GPGMail so the path may not be right but it's got "Bundles" and "Disabled" in its name.
One other thing that I have found that I had to do was trash my Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist which was a hassle because of the customization with the toolbar and accounts that gets blown away. The work-around for that, for in the future, is that before you add any mail add-ons, is to make a copy of your user account Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist before you add your add-on. That way, when an update breaks your add-on, you trash the MailBundles (Disabled) folder and the current com.apple.mail.plist and copy the old com.apple.mail.plist.saved back to the com.apple.mail.

How to Disable Apple Mail?

I do not want to use or set up Apple Mail, but it continues to pop up asking me to set it up. I have no intentions of doing that. How can I disable it? I have tried the following:
1. Setting it up and disabling it --> it screwed up my system
2. I tried to remove only the mail ---> It messed up my system and asks where the mail is in pop ups.
3. I've tried Google notifier and setting that as my default --> Doesn't work
4. I've checked the preferences, accounts, login items ----> Mail is not listed
HELP!
<Edited by Host>

I finally figured out why the mail kep't on popping up. The mail does not normally behave this way. However, my calendar was inheriting from my Google calendar and they had alerts. These alerts kept pushing their messages to Apple Mail and thus it kept popping up. After I disabled that it has stopped annoying me. I tried every other imaginable thing. I hope this helps those who have a similar malady with their Apple Mail.

Import email from apple mail not working

I have a simple applescript which imports emails from Apple Mail into filemaker
tell application "Mail"
          set theSelection to selection
          set theMessage to item 1 of theSelection
          content of theMessage
          set the clipboard to content of theMessage as text
end tell
This works in the Old Apple Mail in 10.6 but Lion changes everything doesnt it. This is not working in the new Mail 5.1. It will import the first message in the string but not the HIGHLIGHTED message which may be in the message string of 3 or 4. I want it to set theMessage contents of the highlighted message. Does anyone know how to select the highlighted message in a string - sometimes called the selected message. Thanks

The .plist files are almost always preferences. I believe "plist" is short for "property list". It contains a list of keys (configuration options) and settings for each key, similar in some respects to the way the Windows Registry works, except that there is a separate file for each set of settings, instead of a single registry file as in Windows. In this case it's a shared settings file for Mail, but I couldn't tell you anything more about the contents.
You were smart to back it up. Usually .plist files can be deleted without signicant loss, because they will be recreated automatically with default settings. But sometimes they contain important settings that may be hard to set up again, especially if you had help setting up your computer in the first place, or have lost important details that you'd need for setting up an app, such as Mail. But sometimes the settings are trivial, for example the position and size of windows, etc., and do not contain settings you'd care about, which may be in another .plist file or in some other kind of file/database.
