Can not type in the body of email program & reply button does not work.

I installed 10.4 (Family Pack) on my G4 400 and after a few days the email program does not work as it originally did. The reply button no longer works. (It did for a few days.) Additionally on a new mail or mail forward. I can not type in the body of the email after the first word. It just beebs at me. (It did work as normal for a few days.) I can still receive and can send mail. I have also installed this Family pack on my iMac flat panel G4 and have no mail problems. That mac is about 200 mile from this location. Before I installed 10.4 I was using 10.3.9 and mail was ok. I use high speed internet with the iMac and use dialup with the G4.

I've lost track of what computer you have where, and I don't understand why you keep installing buggy OS X 10.4.0 on systems that worked fine under OS X 10.3.9, without being able to update to install system updates afterwards.
That said, you may want to look at this web site for general Mac OS X troubleshooting tips:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
In particular, since I know of other people with the same problem as you that fixed it deleting caches, you may want lo look these two pages:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
Side effects of System cache cleaning
In addition to some utilities mentioned there for cache cleaning, you may also consider OnyX, if for no other reason, because it's free:
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
Although utilities such as OnyX allow you to clean many caches with just a click of the mouse, I'd recommend to be as selective as possible and clean them up one at a time, to try to identify which exactly is causing your problems, if any. This information, in turn, could be useful for other users. I'm pretty sure some Mail problems are related to cache issues, but I don't yet know which cache exactly is the culprit here (since it was not the Mail cache, I would say that the fonts cache should be next in the list).

EMAIL-CAN NOT TYPE IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL

I can not type on the body of my email through comcast SmartZone. I am using Internet Explorer 9 and from my comcast home page when I access my email and try and compose an email or reply there is no where to type the body of the email. When I go to the Comcast help page where it has Comcast Customer Central it looks distorted like you are looking at with double vision. When I am trying to compose an email it has everything except the body to type on, it is all gray in that area and then at the bottom of the page it has the reply etc just like at the top of the page. Also when I am on my smartzone at home versus at work it looks different. Like on my email at home the first button is refresh and here at work it is new?? I have contacted Comcast and they were able to login to my email and had not problems. So I do think it is a setting but I do not know where to even start. Please help,

It could be a compatability issue between IE9 and the Comcast
email website. Try it in compatibility view in the IE9 browser.
You might also want to use or create another email account
using another service like gmail as a test to see what happens.

Can I embed a picture in an email so that it does not show up as an attachment?

Can I embed a picture in an email so that it does not show up as an attachment?

If you copy and paste the photo into the body of the email that should work for you.
Select the photo, tap and hold down it and then select - Copy - go to the mail app - create a new message - tap and hold down on the body of the email where you enter the text for the message - and select Paste.

It could be that your button has justy gone out. You may try getting compressed air to blow out any dust in there. If that doesn't work, you may have to get your button and ribbon replaced.

Content of SMS is not included in the body of email when shared/forward as

Sir,
When forwarding SMS as email, the content of the SMS is stored as an attachment called <primary_text.txt> file, it's double pain since the receiving person can not read the attachment via Z10 since the device can not open *.txt> file extension.
If it's possible, please restore this functionality back to the way of OS 6/7, which put the content of the SMS in the body of email, since I do rely on this feature heavily.

How exactly are you trying to forward an SMS as an email?
You can forward the SMS to an email address of your choice and that`s when your SMS will be converted to MMS, and sent to the email address of your choice . The recepient should get your message as "[email protected] carrier.com
Another way of doing it is to select "Share" instead of forward. Then a list of options will open that includes your email address. Select your email address and the selected text message will be added as "body.txt" and after this, you just have to enter the recepient email address and subject line (optional).
The recepient will receive the email with a "body.txt" attachment that can be downloaded and open in or with the "Notepad" on PC

How do I send a jpeg file as an attachment and not embeded in the body of the email.

In addition to what etresoft says...
if you prefer not to see the contents of your attachments embedded in your email...
Open Terminal in Applications>Utilities and paste this in. Then hit return.
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing 1
To reverse the setting, change the 1 to a 0.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.

I can not read my mails on my email screen. It does not show the messagew

Although te massages are showen in brief at hè leeft, the screen does not show THE whole message,

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if the email text shows when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Hi all, I've got very unpleasant issue with my iPhone 4s on ios 5.1 - it can automatically turn on the 3G even if my local operator does not have the 3g coverage. What I should do to solve this problem? (p.s. even want to jail it!!!))

Hi!
I've got very unpleasant issue with my IPhone 4s, it can automaticaly turn on the 3G even if my local mobile operator does not have 3G coverage.
I hate it, 'cause my battery dies in a couple of hours. How can I solve this problem. It is very annoying. I just thinking about jailing!!!
Thanks in advance.

There are NO carriers that legitimately offer the iPhone in Ukraine according to this list: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
I'm not talking about carriers that support 3G, I'm talking about AUTHORIZED iPhone carriers. There is NO SUPPORT available for iPhones on networks other than those who are authorized BY APPLE to carry the iPhone.
The iPhone should work with any compatible GSM carrier. If your carrier is not on the list I linked to, you will have to work with them to resolve any problems. There is nothing else anyone can do for you.

I can receive texts from one contact but when I reply she does not receive the text. It does not say delivered when the text is sent but does not say that it has not been sent.

One of my long standing contacts cannot receive texts from me. I can see them from her. We both have iPhones . We have been texting for years.
My outgoing message is sent as iMessage and stays blue. It does not say delivered but it does not say that it has been unable to send.

Suddenly reply button does not work. Reply changes to Reply All then Back

My Mail program has been working for a few days no problem, then yesterday the reply button stopped working. When I select reply it changes to Reply All then Back to reply again. I can create a new message and click send - with no problem.
I tested the account with Connection Doctor and I am connected to the outgoing and incoming mail just fine. My webmail program for the email also works, so I'm pretty sure its a Mail program issue.
Any ideas?

Hey there.... so just to rule out anything to do with Avast I deleted it and re-started the computer.
I checked Mail and I still have the default toolbar, I dragged it to the top again just to make sure.
I just replaced my batteries in both the mouse and keyboard.
Also, I can forward the message and click send. I can also create a new message and send. I just don't seem to be able to reply to a message.
Thank you

I can't type into the body of my email (earthlink webmail) with Firefox (have to paste something into body to be able to type in body) & links won't post as hyperlinks.

It is frustrating to use my email because I can't use it normally. Apparently Firefox & my earthlink email are incompatible for normal use.

Hello ymda, '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
Restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
Thank you

Music App: After updating to ios 5 I can't flip through the album covers any more. Option does not appear when I hold my iphone in the specific angle.

..... is that a software problem due to ios 5? What can I do to fix that?
Thanks
Waymore

I am back with an update. I turned off Match on both the ipad and the iphone 5. By doing so I was able to sync my Iphone and ipad to itunes and store the music on my devices rather than the slow streaming. So far this has fixed my problems with the iphone I have all my music, playlist, most of the album art and so on. But the ipad is a different story. I have the music and artist but not one playlist I am sure Apple will have an upgrade soon that will address these issues they are usually very good about this.
Now have any of you experienced another problem that has existed as long as I have used faces in Aperture.
I have over 200 faces and they are organized a-z problem is I have this going on A-Z folowed by a few that start over A-Z followed by another few A-Z and again a 4th time A-Z. Imagine how difficult it is while I am showing someone the great features of my iphone, ipad and imac. Which I do talk highly of all the time. But how do I explain that even though their name starts with a or b or what ever they are not important enough to me to be in the first list of A-Z or even the 2nd or 3rd list of A-Z someohow they are in the 4th section of the list!!!!
I have managed to get the Imac to fix this but for some reason the IOS devices do not. Any ideas?
Thanks Al
