Cannot read mail in bottom right window!

In Mail>Prefs>Viewing I have always used the Classic Layout. I upgraded
to Maverick quite awhile ago, so am using Mail 7.1. Today, Mail stopped
displaying any writing in the lower right box, which would be the body
of the email. I haven't changed anything so am stumped. Anyone know
anything about this problem?
Screen shot

Normally, when one selects a mailbox under On My Mac, the number of messages shows in the title bar (see below), but you seem to have an empty Facebook mailbox.
Because you are showing no messages in the upper pane of the Classic layout in your Facebook mailbox, the problem you're describing isn't very well illustrated in your screen shot. Perhaps if you select a mailbox with some messages in it, and select one of those messages in the upper pane, that message will show (or not show) in a screen shot, and we'll have a better idea of the problem you're trying to describe.
Also: What happens when you switch out of the Classic layout?

Toothless Lion - cannot read mail-header, iTunes do not start automatically, DigitalColor Meter is useless, where has the speed gone

I guess that new versions of a software should improve things - Apple seems to have a different oppinion. There comes the top four of my Lion-Problems (three among a lot of others):
MAIL
In that new interessting summary view (where a bunch of emails with same subject is shown) in many cases the sender address "breaks into the next line" and overlapps the subject. So I cannot read neither the complete subject, nor the senders email address. Has anyone the same problem, or better, a solution for this?
iTunes
I checked the "open iTunes if this iPhone is connected" (free translation from german version), but this does not impresses iTunes any longer. I always have to start iTunes manually to get my phone synced. Any solution here?
DigitalColor Meter
OK, I found something in the community about that issue - so no question here, but a comment: Apple, do you really thing that it is good practise to sell the old version of a software for money in AppStore, while upgrading this software to a useless bunch of bytes for free? Please inform me about that completely new strategy in public relations.
Speed
New OS versions are slower than older ones, because of improved functionality. That is ok. Is there a way to get rid of those new functions (whatever they are, but I did not miss a thing in Leopard, s whatever is new, I guess I do not need it) to get back speed? Loading web pages, starting applications, ... everything is much slower now ... much! Can I stop any services/daemons to get back a bit of speed? And if so, which ones?
Maybe someone could help - maybe Apple with the next upgrade...

Thomas

Thank you for the sympathy and the information about the Adobe.com forum Michael.
I posted here because, to be honest, for a company that's acknowledged their installers and updaters and support needs some work, they seem very determined to obfuscate the means by which users can provide direct feedback to the company. Much like you, I've also noticed a trend in CS5 installations that mirrors the issues that were present in CS4. it's a sad state of affairs.
As for my installation, you are also quite right to say that a clean install would have been a lot faster than what I went through with TS and it was actually my first idea. Before calling TS I'd actually read through the forums and noticed that a large number of users who were faced with my situation had no other choice but to reformat. I was just giving Adobe the benefit of the doubt and wasted 2 and a half weeks through that course of action...
What makes this situation even more frustrating is that the installer failed on a fresh system. It was a custom-built design machine, assembled and configured by myself. The only software that had been installed on it prior to Design Premium was Firefox, an FTP client and the start of my problems, trial versions of various CS4 programs. I used trials just long enough to retire the previous design computer so that I wouldn't contravene the EULA's stipulation of not running more than one instance of software at the same time on different machines. Turns out being honest once again penalised a legal customer.
If there is just thing users should learn from my far from unique tale of failed tech support it's that if you ever run into a problem with the installation, don't bother calling TS, just reformat and start from scratch. It might seem like it'll take longer to get going again, but in actuality, it's the opposite. Reformatting means you'll be up and running in about 1 or 2 days rather than 2 weeks.

Cannot read mails written in other languages but english

Hi guys, I have this serious problem about writing and reading mails in other languages, for example, Japanese. I have tried both Hotmail in Safari and also Mail application. I think that it might be after the latest upgrade of Mac OS X. Is anybody facing the same problem? Advices needed. Thank you.

Hi guys, I have this serious problem about writing
and reading mails in other languages, for example,
Japanese. I have tried both Hotmail in Safari and
also Mail application.
Could you provide more details about your specific problems? For example, can you not compose in Japanese, or is the problem that it does not come out right at the other end? As for reading, what are you seeing? Have you tried setting the encoding to one of the Japanese options in Message > Text Encoding for Mail or View > Text Encoding for Safari? For webmail, have you tried FireFox? Safari will not work with some systems.

Cannot read mails in hotmail with firefox 15.0.1 on mac osx 10.6.8

I'm using firefox 15.0.1 on mac osx 10.6.8. I can log in hotmail, but cannot open or read any mails.

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.

Cannot read PDFs in browser with Windows 7

Since I installed Windows 7 I have not been able to read PDFs in IE8 - all I get is a blank page. I can open them fine when they are in a stand alone file. I have tried Reader 9.2, 8.1.3 and 8.1.4. I tried unchecking 'display PDF in browser' but that gave me an error message that the file could not be found. I have seen a number of posts on the internet but no solution.

I had the same problem but I use Firefox, so I went to top of screen in Firefox and clicked "tools" then "option" then under "applications" tab had to adjust for documents, forms etc...for Adobe Reader 9 to open documents and it worked. My issue was when online trying to open a pdf form or page and I would just get a blue box with a question mark. I am also on Win 7...not sure if this will help you since you are IE.

Cannot read mail content

In my Mail, I can see the titles of incoming messages, but when I click to open an individual mail, I get a blank page. Started this behaiviour only recently

Rebuilding didn't help, then you say: The problem seems to have been resolved...
Is it ok or not? Sorry, but it's a little confusing.
Easy way to check your internet connection ...
Open System Preferences > Network
Click Assist Me > Diagnostics
Select the configuration on the right.
If any buttons are red, click Continue.
I just noticed that your profile indicates your Mac has v10.7.2 installed.
If that is the case, updating your system software may help the connection issue.
Click Software Update from the Apple menu.
The most recent version for Lion is v10.7.5

Help! Cannot read mail, went through Apple Support options already.

I'm posting this after going through the Support page. I am able to send email but cannot receive emails. Is anyone experiencing this today? The last email I received was last night and I have not changed any settings.
I have used other free accounts and have friends send an email to my mac account and I am not receiving any.
Has there been some "server down" on mac's side? None on my isp.
Thanks so much.
sam

Lucky Jay!
I tried that on friend's PC, hehe my old computer, but anyways, it didn't work. It seems that many people are experiencing problems. Cause I'm sure like you, we haven't changed any settings.
I need my email. I have no clue if my client liked the quasi-made website I created for her.
Ugh.
Thanks Jay.

IPhone - cannot read mail messages

I can get the header info for all my accounts -- Earthlink, Yahoo, Gmail, Mobile Me....but the messages only show up as a checkerboard. This occurs both on Edge and Wifi.
Help!

Hi bodhiness,
Try tapping the Mail application on the iPhone and then holding the Home button for ~7 seconds, which will force the Mail application to quit. Then try tapping Mail and viewing an email again.
You can also try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743
If the issue persists after relaunching the Mail application and resetting the iPhone, try restoring the iPhone. This article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305744 will walk you through restoring the iPhone.

How do I get rid of BING? It blocks my mail in AOL so that I cannot read mail. IE works and so does AOL..I want BING Search off my computer - did not ask for it do not want it!!

I've answered all this crap before!! I just want BING to quit blocking my emails with a search page! Hate to dump FF for IE but am strongly considering it!

The Bing search engine has been added to the installed search engines in Firefox beta versions.<br />
You can click the search engine icon in the search bar and select Google or another search engine.<br />
If you do not see Google then open Manage Search Engines and click the "Restore Defaults" button.
If you mean the location bar then check the pref <b>keyword.URL</b> on the about:config page.

Cannot read mail attachements

when tap on a PDF OR jPG attachment I get a white blank screen. ised to be able to see the contents of the attachment. How can I resolve this problem?

Try a "reset" (different from restarting)
Hold down on both the Home AND Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo on black screen (about 10 seconds).
When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of both buttons.
Hope this helps!

Read Mail button on the toolbar doesn't open my default mail program

I've just reinstalled Firefox 17.0.1 (and everything else) following a crash. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, with Windows Mail (not Live Mail) set as the default email program and I've added a Read Mail button to the Firefox toolbar: all this is exactly as it was before the crash. Windows Mail is selected in Tools/Options/Applications/mailto, and also runs perfectly from its desktop icon.
However, clicking on Read Mail doesn't open Windows Mail as it used to.
I get the message "The application could not be found, please use Toolbar Buttons's options window to correct this". I'm not clear on what it is I'm being directed to do. What and where is the "Toolbar Buttons's options window"?
Many thanks.

That did it. Thanks very much indeed.

My windows friends cannot read attachments from my e-mails

My Windows friends cannot read attachments from my e-mails

If the attachments are common files that your recipients should be able to read (PDF, DOC, TXT) then what is the setting when you select the menu command Edit > Attachments > Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments (checked or unchecked).
If it's unchecked you should check that setting and retry.

Cannot Read Body of my Mail on MacBook Pro

I am using Mail with the latest Mavericks on my MacBook Pro....and it is all updated to the latest software updates. For the past 5 or 6 days, I cannot read the body of my mail. The headers etc. are visible but in the preview pane below, nothing shows. I think this started because I had left the computer for a few hours and it went to sleep. When I tried to get back on, nothing happened. I pressed the enter and other keys but it still kept 'sleeping'. I finally resorted to turning the power switch off and was presented with this problem. I have searched these forums and though there are a few instances of this, they either seemed to be with older OS systems or on the initial installation of Mavericks....I have had Mavericks since it first came out with no issues. Also, the majority of these type issues seemed to be with the iPhone or iPad...and I still have not been able to get to the bottom of this.
I have tried to Rebuild the mailbox several times but to no avail. Sometimes the Mail also quits unexpectedly and I am given an error statement. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
I have a 2008 MacBook Pro with a 2.53 GHz Intel Core and 8 Gb RAM....and about 40 Gb of free space.

Humm,
In the Mail > Preferences I have it set to display in Classic view.
Side bar or Accounts in-boxes and other folders
Then a top window of Messages left or new in the In-boxes and the messages being "read" below that.
There are occasions when deleting a messages in the top window does not automatically select another.
This can mean nothing displays in the bottom box (I just can't re-create it right now ).
If I change to the regular/default view I see the Side Bar still, then the Summary column followed by the Messages column.
The Summary I have chosen has three Messages related to it.
In the Messages column I have scrolled the first to reveal the contents but also show the Header of the next. (I chose to show Full Headers so there is a lot of info here or not only the Sender but the Server(s) it came through to get to me).
I take you do mean the actual Header to the actual message (the lower right item in the pic) rather than calling one of the columns "Headers" ?

When I go into my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages. 26 may show on the screen but it says I have 32. However, at the bottom right it appears as if all the messages are showing and the arrow to get more is not highlighted.

When I go to my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages. It says there are 34 but I can only see 26. However, at the bottom right the arrows to go to the next screen are not highlighted? I also cannot scroll any further down. Does anyone know how to scroll down to see all of my messages? I use Travel-net Communications as my email provider (Ottawa, On, Canada).

hey ,
if it is showing you 34 mails them it is correct. when you see your mail. apple has a smart way of arranging your mail.suppose you recieve 4 mails from one email id it will show you under one highlighted mail. so when you open a mail from anyone trying scrolling it down and you will find your missing mails.
