How can I change the fonts used in Yosemite
It would appear that Apple have gone out of their way to make OS X as difficult to use as possible with the change of fonts colours. To make matters worse it would appear we all have to adhere to the Apple accessibility rules if we want to change anything ! Guys, the world is more complex.
I don't have any visual impairment as such other than I'm in my 50's so i'm in that vari-focal time of life, which is normal. That means a bit more definition on the font helps - so I'd like to change the font & maybe the font size across the entire system. I can do that in M$ Windows !
I'd like to change the colours of the fonts used in some applications e.g.. Mail where for some completely mad reason Apple are using a grey font, on a grey background, a mustard font on a white background. MAD. What idiot comes up with this stuff & who signs it off ??????? Once again all this is easy to change on every other OS I've worked with (Solaris, Linux, Windows).
Now you might think that I'm Apple bashing, I guess I am in a way but I've been an Apple user for more than 15 years, I have iMac, Macbook, Macbook Pro, Macbook Air, 3 iPads, iPhone. I like the products but things are not as configurable as they should be. Just allowing people to click a couple of radio buttons to switch to different modes on the display DOESN'T cut it.
Too old to care now.

Mail -> Preferences -> Fonts & Colors
If you want to change the font and color in a message you're composing, you can right-click on the message and use the Font/Show Fonts command to bring up the Font panel (among other ways).

How can I change the font in notes in the view in mail?
Use the Fonts menu. Either -
• go to the Format menu and select Show Fonts
• or, in the Note creation window, click the icon for Fonts -
In either case, once the Fonts window is open, select the text you want to change then choose the font characteristics (face, style, and size) from the Fonts screen. -
How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels
How can I change the fonts in "contacts" when printing mail labels ? I used to be able to do this but in Mavericks this ability seems to have gone away. Am I missing something ?
Actually in my case it doesn't work. I used to be able to pull up the font window with it but the button merely flickers when I click it. The image selection button and font color both are functional. WEIRD. I don't think this is a Mavericks issue as I recall having it come up with one of my user profiles before installing. Now I can't make it happen with either of my user profiles.
I don't seem to have printing issues in other applications. And I recently reset the fonts in a futile attempt to correct this.
I may post a new topic in Mail Contacts and Calendar if there is no response here after a bit. -

How can you change the font size in the application and system headers?
How can you change the font size in the application and system headers? I searched the system and finder prefs to no avail. Changing the screen density is not a good option.
ThanksI downloaded Tinkertool. Found the font section and increased the size of most selections. The only thing that changed that I can see is the window label. The apple line, bookmarks line, the tool bar in safari are all the same---font size of about 4. Found the finder "show view options" but that didn't seem to change anything either. I'll keep working. Restarted all apps after changes as well.

Editing the source is a bit of a pain because you'll have to redo it after every update. It's better to write yourself a mini-extension that adds a new stylesheet -- that is also very simple to do. Just follow these instructions: https://github.com/adobe/brackets/wiki/Customize-Your-Code-Font.

How can I change the font in emails sent on my ipad or at least have the email retain the font that I copy & paste into it?
There is no way that I know of within the native iPad email app. You might want to search the app store for a third party app that lets you change fonts if this is important.

How can I change the value used in a Criteria Rule in a Subscription agent
Dear mobile heroes.... How can I change the value used in a Criteria Rule in a Subscription agent in a quality environment? (CRM 70 SP04).
I have built a subscription agent in dev, which uses a static where clause to filter activity_object on VKORG. I need to filter on a different VKORG value in the quality environment, but when I change the value of the sales org, the change is not saved. I have tried this even non 'activated' subscription agents, but it still does not appear possible to change and save the changes.
This poses a big problem because the VKORG value I want to use does not even exist in the dev environment, so I could not even rebuild in dev and transport the new agent to quality. Can anyone help me?Too old to care now.

How can i change the fonts in notes in ios7
how can i change the fonts in notes in ios7
Well as far as I am concern Meg can keep it. I am glad she like these really ridiculous colors and not be able to make changes. Especially when the changes were so major. Plus all of apples wonderful locations to find answers besides community boards. I am starting to rethink apple products with these type of releases. Who ever heard of yellow colors for e-mail addresses. This app is terrible I will be looking for something that is easier for people that have color blindness issues. So far as I can see the changes that IOS 7 made are not well thought out and made changes just because they could without options is refi lupus and not user friendly. Enjoy Meg because so far I don't.
