Can't add a rule, apply a signature, etc.

Hi--Something weird has happened to my Mail. I can no longer do Mail Preferences and add a rule. The rules tab shows up and it all looks good but when I click on "Add Rule" nothing happens. Similarly I can't Edit a rule or duplicate a rule.
On a related front, when I click on the Signatures icon, it isn't displayed. So I can't do anything with Signatures.
Also, when I go to the Junk Mail tab the Advanced button is available but when I click on it nothing happens.
I recently installed an IMAP mail account but that's the only recent change.
Any ideas at all?
Thanks!

Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. Try to reproduce the problem and look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. They may provide some clues.
You may try re-creating the preferences file as follows:
1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
2. Make a backup copy of the ~/Library/Mail folder, just in case something goes wrong while trying to solve the problem. You can do this in the Finder by dragging the folder to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down, for example. This is where all your mail is stored.
3. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Locate com.apple.mail.plist and move it to the Desktop (to be deleted if this fixes the problem).
4. If you have a .Mac account and .Mac synchronization of Mail data was enabled either in Mail > Preferences > General or in System Preferences > .Mac, that will interfere with any attempt to get rid of potentially corrupt *.plist files. If that‘s the case, after having followed the previous steps, but before opening Mail again, you should go to System Preferences > .Mac > Advanced, click Reset Sync Data, and choose the appropriate options to reset the Mail data stored on the .Mac server with the data locally stored on the computer, i.e. sync data must flow from the computer to the .Mac server so that the potentially corrupt data is deleted from the server as well.
5. Open Mail. You’ll have to set up your non-.Mac accounts from scratch all over again. If given the option to import existing mailboxes or something like that, don’t. Just enter the account information and Mail will automagically rediscover the data in ~/Library/Mail/ when done.
You’ll also have to re-configure most of your settings in Mail > Preferences. For spam-related security reasons, the first thing you should do is go to Preferences > Viewing and disable Display remote images in HTML messages if it’s enabled.
You may also need to re-install or re-enable any Mail plug-ins you have installed for Mail to recognize them.
6. As a side effect of re-creating com.apple.mail.plist, Mail might rename Outbox (which is where messages waiting to be sent are stored) to Delivered. The name of that mailbox is actually a misnomer, as it would contain messages (if any) that couldn’t be delivered for some reason. You can delete that mailbox if you wish.
Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

How can I add lyrics to media (mp3, wma, etc.) files?

Is there any possibility to add lyrics in media files (mp3, wma, etc.) in Windows 7? I didn't get it

For various reasons, that feature was intentionally removed from WMP12 for Win7.
Please, please note that tags can still be edited from within Windows Explorer; however, the 'lyrics' feature was removed there.
See zachd's responses in this thread:
WMP 12 - Where is the Advanced Tag Editor?
There, you'll see the reasons that ATE was removed from Media Player, as well as why 'lyrics' went away.

Can't add itunes library to my ipod etc since installing itunes on my new computer. HELP!

I have just installed itunes on my new PC and am trying to add some songs onto an ipod. The songs were purchases from the Itunes store. I go through the process of drag and drop onto the device (its the same with my ipad and iphone) but it won't work. Since installing itunes on my new computer I have bought an album off itunes and it downloaded with no problems - but any of my old purchases won't transfer over. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I haven't as yet transferred over my music libray from my old PC (songs that I burnt ) so not sure if it would be the same. I would have thought that songs that have been purchased in itunes should easily transfer. Help please?

Move the files for your new purchases out to the desktop.
Migrate your library properly from your old computer as given below.
Move the files stored on the desktop into the Automatically Add to iTunes folder.
Migrate iTunes Library
These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
Method 1
Backup the library with this User Tip.
Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
Method 2
Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
Note if you have iOS devices and haven't moved your contacts and calendar items across then you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should merge the existing data from the device.
If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

How to Create a PDF Document and apply Digital Signature in C# using the Adobe SDK?

Hi Everybody!
I have to do two distinct tasks here:
1) How can I create a PDF document using the Adobe SDK in my .NET Applications(C# - 2.0)?
I just need a basic sample to create a document with a simple text, for example. I did not find any useful information in the adobe documentation. I have the Acrobat Professional 8.0 in my computer, but it's very dificult to work whith de Acrobat.dll and .NET with a poor documentaion.
2)How can I apply digital signature in a existent pdf document?
I need to sign documents using the SDK, just a basic sample in c# would be helpful to start!
Anybody could help?
Thank in advance!

Leonard Rosenthol or anybody that can help, sorry to insist.
I will explain better my problem:
I have an ASP.NET WebPAge (C# - 2.0). In this page, the user make a request. The request should generate a PDF document with the informations of the request and with a field to add a digital signature. The document created will be send to a approver that will confirm the approval applying his digital signature (I need to do too, a webpage where the approver open the page, choose the pdf document, and sign, just selecting his own certificate and clicking in the button SIGN... but this is another problem).
That's the reason that I have to create a PDF document. If I create a WORD or HTML document, and then convert to PDF, how can I add a field to digital signature in this pdf document?
Is there any solution using Acrobat SDK?
Thank you very much!

Cisco ISE - What does "Multiple Matched Rule Applies" mean?

Hi,
In Cisco ISE authroiztion policy configuration, what does the option "multiple matched rule applies" mean? I can understand the "first matched rule", but in "multiple matched rule" how is the "permissions picked if multiple rules match? Or, what is the logic involved in picking up the permissions, if multiple rules are matched in authorization policy.
No where in cisco document I see any explaination for this.
Would appreciate if any one can point me to a document or explain me the login in selecting the persmissions if multiple rules are matched. Also, what would the use-case for this?
Thanks and Regards,
Mohan

I agree with tarik & also this might be helpful for you:
An authorization policy can consist of a single rule or a set of rules that are user-defined. These rules act to create a specific policy. For example, a standard policy can include the rule name using an If-Then convention that links a value entered for identity groups with specific condition(s) or attributes to produce a specific set of permissions that create a unique authorization profile. There are two authorization policy options you can set:
•First Matched Rules Apply
•Multiple Matched Rule Applies
These two options direct Cisco ISE to use either the first matched or the multiple matched rule type listed in the standard policy table when it matches the user's set of permissions. These are the two types of authorization policies that you can configure:
•Standard
•Exception
Standard policies are policies created to remain in effect for long periods of time, to apply to a larger group of users or devices or groups, and allow access to specific or all network endpoints. Standard policies are intended to be stable and apply to a large groups of users, devices, and groups that share a common set of privileges.
Standard policies can be used as templates in which you modify the original values to serve the needs of a specific identity group, using specific conditions or permissions to create another type of standard policy to meet the needs of new divisions, or groups of users, devices, or groups in your network.
By contrast, exception policies are appropriately named because this type of policy acts as an exception to the standard policies. Exception polices are intended for authorizing limited access that is based on a variety of factors (short-term policy duration, specific types of network devices, network endpoints or groups, or the need to meet special conditions or permissions or an immediate requirement).
Exception policies are created to meet an immediate or short-term need such as authorizing a limited number of users, devices, or groups to access network resources. An exception policy lets you create a specific set of customized values for an identity group, condition, or permission that are tailored for one user or a subset of users. This allows you to create different or customized policies to meet your corporate, group, or network needs.

How can i add a picture/logo in my email signature?

Hello. I need to add a logo in my signature. How can I do this? I tried to upload but just get a red cross...
Thank you

My guess is the problem with the square is being caused by incomplete or broken html in the Email Signature. I think the Signature panel doesn't know how to fix HTML. But the email app does... so this is why you copy a complete & pre-formatted email message: entirely.
I walked through the directions above, exactly, and it works with (in my case) even oversized JPG files in the signature.
By copy and pasting the whole message body, you'll retain the html formatting &, in my case, the image too. Running iOS 8.1 & it worked after a few tries.
Keep trying combinations... you'll get it.

How can you add a where clause using "OR" with applied ViewCriteria?

[JDeveloper 10.1.3 SU4]
[JHeadstart 10.1.3 build 78]
I am using JHeadstart, but have a question probably more in the ADF area. On the JHeadstart forum I asked:
"I am overriding JhsApplicationModule's advancedSearch in order to be able to search in childtables. I created transient attributes, display those in advanced search and in the overridden method I check if any of these are filled by the user and create a where clause like 'EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>)'. I add this whereclause using ViewObject.setWhereClause.
So far so good and it works. However, if the user selects 'Result matches any criteria', combining setWhereClause and the normal advancedSearch QueryByExample implementation using ViewCriteriaRow do not provide the desired result, since the ViewCriteria and the setWhereClause are AND-ed together, which is fine if the user selects the (default) "Results match all criteria" (everything is AND-ed) but not the "Result matches any criteria", since then every criterium is OR-ed together, except for the setwhereclause criteria and the set of ViewCriteriaRows, they are AND-ed.
I looked if I could specify that a WhereClause will be OR-ed to existing applied ViewCriteria, but no luck. Do I have to rewrite also advancedSearch's ViewCriteria implementation and write an entire setWhereClause implementation to be able to "OR" every criterium? Or any other suggestions? Can I look at the entire Where clause and rewrite it (after applyCriteria and setWhereClause are called on the VO)?
Toine"
Sandra Muller (JHeadstart Team) told me today: "This sounds like a JDeveloper/ADF issue that is not related to JHeadstart. The question is: how can you add a where clause using "OR" if there are already one or more ViewCriteria applied?
To simplify the test case, you could create a simple ADF BC test client class in a test Model project without JHeadstart (in the test class, use bc4jclient + Ctrl-Enter), in which you first apply a few ViewCriteriaRows to a View Object and also add a where clause.
Can you please log a TAR at MetaLink ( http://metalink.oracle.com/ ), or ask this question at the JDeveloper forum at http://otn.oracle.com/discussionforums/jdev.html ? (This what I am doing now ;-))
Thanks,
Sandra Muller

Anyone knowing the answer or am I asking for an enhancement?
Toine

Hi,
Can you SET your whereclause as follows ?
('Y' = <isAnd>
and EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))
OR ('N' = <isAnd>
AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> OR <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))
)

How can i add a navigation rule at the runtime of JSF?

Hello,
how can i add a navigation rule at the runtime of JSF. Maybe i should use the method "addNavigationRule()" in class "FacesConfig", but i do not know, how can i obtain the instance of class "FacesConfig". Can anybody help me?
Thank you very much!!!

Just curious: Why whould you want to add navigation Rules at run time. I believe the navigation rules should be set to begin with - "by s/w Architect Design".
Else you can always use Redirect / Forward.

How can you add a new rule in the inspector?

I've grown very accustomed to the Chrome developer tools, and I've recently decided to try out Firefox.
Best I can tell, you cannot add custom rules in the Firefox inspector tab. For instance, if I inspect the element on an image in Firefox, I am given all the defined styles (rules) for that element. I can, of course, edit those defined styles. However, it does not give me an option to add my own custom styles unless I jump over to the 'Style Editor' tab and write them in manually. This becomes a problem when I want to write in a quick :hover or a :first-child or reference any other selecter that's not already defined.
In Chrome, not only do I add/remove/change styles directly in the Inspector, but it also saves a custom inspector stylesheet for me with all the changes I made.
Chrome example: http://cl.ly/Wm56
Firefox example: http://cl.ly/WmUP
Is there any way to add custom styles directly from the inspector tab in Firefox?
Thanks!

You will notice an element {} item at the top of the Rules list in the right plane.
You can click between the curly brackets {} to enter a new inline rule for this element.
You can do this within other rules {} as well.
Type the colon to separate the property name and value.
That is easier than adding a style attribute in the left pane or editing a style sheet file.
That should work as well as rules added this way show as a style rule.

In a pages document can I copy a ruler and apply it to text elsewhere in the document

While working in a pages document can I copy a ruler and apply it to text elsewhere in the document? I'm using Pages '09, Version 4.1 (923), on a MacBookPro with OS X, version 10.6.8. I've tried pages help, but I haven't found an answer to this question.

click in the text you wish to copy from > Menu > Format > Copy Paragraph style > click in the text you wish to copy to > Paste Paragraph Style
The keyboard shortcuts are option command c and option command v
You can also Copy/Paste Character Styles.
Better to create real Styles in the Styles Drawer. Using the above method is slower and will lead to inconsistent styles that you can not universally correct or change.
