Change tab stops when composing mail

For some reason when composing a message, after entering the recipient address, tab to subject, after that I have to tab thru 3 additional stops to get to the message body. I would prefer to tab from subject directly to the message - how can I change the tab stop settings?

Go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shortcuts and set the radio button near the bottom of the window to "Text boxes and lists only."

"Cc/Bcc, From:" when composing mail messed up!

Hi-
I just got a 2G 16GB iPhone (new/sealed from eBay). I have setup all my email accounts and everything is fine. However when I go to compose a new email, things look a bit off to me.
The first line field is the "To:' field...that is fine!
The second line field is where things get weird. Instead of it showing only "From" it shows "Cc/Bcc, From:" instead. I don't recall seeing this happening on previous phones that I've had (running previous version of the OS prior to 2.2). Is it suppose to do this now with 2.2 or is something wrong with my phone/settings?
When I go to "settings", "mail, contacts and calendars" I have the show "To/Cc:" label set to off. I also have "always Bcc myself" turned off as well. Why are these things showing in my mail when I go to compose new mail? Especially the field where everything is on one line (The second line field is where things get weird. Instead of it showing only "From" it shows "Cc/Bcc, From:").
Is there a fix for this, it's really confusing. I've tested sending outgoing mail and when I go back to the sent folder and look at what I just sent everything looks fine (non confusing) and when I read the new mail in my inbox again, everything looks fine. It's just when composing mail, where everything looks confusing.
Any help to fix this or has Apple updated it's software to work like this? If so I fail to see why as it makes no sense to me. Let's not forget those settings in the mail settings don't even work whether you turn them on or off. Why are they even there then? Although I must admit, when turning on "always Bcc myself" when you go back to compose a mail, all the labels are shown correct (each line for To, From, Cc, Bcc, etc). Yet if I go back and turn off the "always Bcc myself" option, everything is mixed up again with 3 different labels on one line. I just can't figure it out.

When composing a message, there is a To: field with a "Cc/Bcc, From" combined field below the To: field along with the Subject field for the message.
Selecting the combined "Cc/Bcc, From" field expands the single field to a separate Cc:, Bcc:, and From fields.
This provides for adding additional recipients to the Cc: and/or Bcc: field, and changing the account the message is sent from if you have more than one active account available.
If you don't plan on entering additional recipients in either the Cc: or Bcc: fields, or you don't need to change the account the message will be sent from, use the To: field when addressing the message and ignore/don't select the combined "Cc/Bcc, From" field.
The show "To/Cc" label - on or off setting has no affect on this when composing a message. The "To/Cc" label off turns this off for received messages when viewing received messages in an account's Inbox mailbox.
Although I must admit, when turning on "always Bcc myself" when you go back to compose a mail, all the labels are shown correct (each line for To, From, Cc, Bcc, etc). Yet if I go back and turn off the "always Bcc myself" option, everything is mixed up again with 3 different labels on one line. I just can't figure it out.
This is because there is an entry in the Bcc: field for the new message, so all all fields are expanded in case you want to add additional recipients in the Cc: or Bcc: fields.

How do you add pictograph favorites to font selection when composing mail messages?

I located the desired symbols from the "Characters" selection when I chose the Format menu and opened the gear symbol on the bottom lefthand of the pulldown menu. Now I do not understand how to place these "Favorite" symbols I identified placed into my Font selection for easy access or use when composing mail messages.

HT5361 Can I use send and delivery receipts when composing mail?

Does anyone know if I can ask for read receipts and delivery receipts when composing mail?

Additionally (to BobtheFisherman):
And his suggested method will work just as well as any send/read receipt since many recipients will not allow such a receipt be sent. If it is important enough to require a receipt, send it via USPS return receipt requested, or FedEx, etc.

How to handle tab stops when converting from Frame to RoboHelp

I have several examples of programming code that have tabulated indentations in the FrameMaker documents I have inherited.
But when I convert to RoboHelp, the tab stop is only recognized by a single space.
What would be the best way to deal with this? There are so many examples, and sometimes there can be multiple levels.
Remember, all these manuals have already been written in Framemaker, so the less I have to manipulate these samples, the better!
Thanks

Did anyone from Adobe get back to you on this bug?
Now that TCS3 is out there, did they fix it?
Do you know how we can find out the status of this and other issues with Adobe?
We have been very disappointed with TCS2 and if Adobe hasn't fixed known issues from that version, I wonder if they will in TCS3...or ever? Flare is looking pretty good at this point.

Why doesn't the URL change in the Wonder Bar when I change tabs, or when I navigate to pages within the site?

Just upgraded to 5.0
The URL in the WOnder Bar doesn't change when I switch from one tab to next.
For instance, I'm currently on this page, but I don't see the URL. What I see in the wonder bar is the last url I typed in: mailchimp.com.
Also, sometimes I get "new Tab" and when I type the URL, the Title tag does not come up on the tab, it stays as "new tab."
SOmetimes I click on a link and FireFox page comes up blank

There have been a couple of different extension that have caused that problem. You'll need to do a little troubleshooting to determine which of your extensions is causing that.

How can I stop Firefox from changing Tabs/pages when I use the up/down arrows for scrolling?

A recent update is causing the browser to switch between tabs, or even go on to other pages, when I use the keyboard navigation arrows to scroll down the page. This is aggravating, especially when filling out a form, which can submit before completion. The tab switching occurs mostly when the focus is not in a specific portion of the web page, such as when I have selected a tab. I I can find no way to disable this behavior.
Win 7 Ultimate fully patched, Firefox version 35.0.1

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

How do I change the number of spaces generated when I press the tab key when composing an email message?

I'm running Thunderbird 24.3.0 on Vista Home Premium.

issues within issues.
Short answer is you can not.
Long answer is see short answer plus tabs are not for "Spaces" they are for measured distances. Modern operating systems use proportional fonts and a W is much wider than an I, whereas a mono spaced font such as IBM Courier uses the same space for both.

Change tab behaviour when switching applications

Just wondering how to change how tabs seem to behave when I select another application.
If you have more tabs open than the screen has room for, when you switch application the active tab shifts to the far right.
Is there some way to stop this from happening ?
The other one which I think may be a bug is: If you have Firefox and another application taking up half the screen, and select the other application, when you reselect Firefox by clicking directly on a tab, a different tab is selected.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
*If you have many extensions then first enable half of the extensions to test which half has the problem.
*Continue to divide the bad half that still has the issue until you find which one is causing it.

Ipad freezes if I try to highlight text when composing mail

I am having trouble with the Mail application. When I compose an email, if I try to highlight or select text from one email to copy into a new email, my ipad freezes and I have to exit out of the mail application. When I open Mail again, everything is blank for about 5 seconds (showing no mail and no folders), then Mail closes. If I select Mail again, it opens normally but usually will not save my last email.
I checked and my ipad is running the current OS software.
Any help is appreciated!!

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly 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 work then try also do 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.

EEWB: Change tab tittle when creating an extension type ACTIVITY_H

Hi CRM Gurus,
I am using transaction EEWB to extend the object BUSINESS_ACTIVITY. There are two extension types: CUSTOMER_H and ACTIVITY_H. Both of them create an additional tab that contains the new fields. I have two questions about this:
1.- Which differences exist between them?? When must be
    used one and when the other? Can I use both at the
    same time?
2.- With the method CRM_CUSTOMER_H_SET_TITLE of
    the Badi definition CRM_CUSTOMER_H_BADI, you can
    change the tittle of the additional tab when using
    CUSTOMER_H extension type. But when you are using
    ACTIVITY_H extension type, instead
    CRM_CUSTOMER_H_BADI the system triggers
    CRM_ACTIVITY_H_BADI, and that Badi doesn´t have any
    method to change the tab tittle. Anybody knows how
    to change the tittle tab in this case???
Any suggestion will be of great aid.
Thanks in advance.
Rosa

Carlos,
The difference between ACTIVITY_H and CUSTOMER_H is very simple:
CUSTOMER_H is an SAP delivered segment of the business transaction to contain CUSTOMER defined Header fields for the business transaction.
ACTIVITY_H is an SAP delivered segment of the business transaction designed to hold data specific to business transactions that have a business object type of "Activity"
It is possible to use both at the same time. The normal practice is to use CUSTOMER_H for any new customer fields.
The reason why you don't have a BADI method to change the title of the fields on the tab that corresponds to ACTIVITY_H is that the CUSTOMER_H badi is designed to help "build a tab from the ground up". In other words the ACTIVITY_H is used to help reflect new behavior in that segment, while CUSTOMER_H badi is used to define how that segment will behave.
The simple solution is to use CUSTOMER_H. I really have never seen a valid reason to enhance the other segments of the business transaction header.
Let me know if you need additional clarification,
Stephen

10g Preview: Change tab title when browsing javadoc

The new method of displaying Help and Javadoc is great.
When I display the Javadoc for a class by hitting F1 in the Code Editor, a Javadoc tab appears with the title of the class I looked up. All well and good.
When I navigate a link in the Javadoc though, the title of the tab continues to display the name of the class I originally looked up. This can be particularly confusing if the Javadoc pane is scrolled down so the name of the currently viewed class is not visible.
It would be nice if the tab title updated when the content of the window changed. Or, minimally, it should behave like the tab does for an IDE Help topic: just show "Javadoc" with an up-to-date tooltip for the tab reflecting the current class name. I would personally prefer the former solution though.

Hi Alan,

How to change tab stops in a completed document with Pages?

I switched from WordPerfect to Pages and have struggled with figuring things out. I have a membership list I do each year with names addresses, phones, etc. I used a right tab to put the phone numbers out on the right margin. Now I find my originally defined margins are off, and I want to change that right tab. I seem to be able to do this only one name at a time: very tedious. Is there a way to change it for the entire list all at once?

Here is a short script allowing us to select every paragraph starting with a TAB character.
Of course, we may edit it allowing it to select paragraphs matching an other criteria.
--(SCRIPT selectparagraphs_starting_withtab]
Apply this script to a Pages document.
Every paragraph starting with a TAB character will be selected.
You may aplly some settings to all of them in a single operation.
Thanks to Axel Lutgens.
le 25 juillet 2008
property L : {}
tell application "Pages"
set my L to {}
tell first document
set N to count of paragraphs
repeat with P from 1 to N
if character 1 of paragraph P is tab then copy (a reference to paragraph P) to the end of my L
end repeat
end tell
select my L
end tell
set L to {}

When composing mail cannot attach pdf's

am losing the will to live no longer able to work from home and family life badly effected - I have been trying to sole this problem for 3 weeks and am suffering sleep deprivation because of it.

Dave,
Not exactly, but this issue arose for some people either because of two Mail plugins that no longer work or because there are more than one copy of Mail on your Mac. First see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2486
and then
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mail_Update
The latter special update will be offered in Software Update, but perhaps only if you make sure to remove any extra copies of the Mail app. The extra copy, is often found in the Previous System folder. Use Spotlight to look for multiple copies.
Let me know what you find.
Ernie
