How can I configure CTRL+Backspace to delete the previous word only and not the preceding space?

The title pretty much explains it all. I'm using a different computer than usually and I'm pretty sure it used to only delete the word and not the space.

Your observation is correct: Ctrl+BackSpace shouldn't delete the preceding space. However, if words are separated by two spaces, one of those spaces will be deleted.

This is not the observed functionality in every case. It seems that MSWord haphazardly either removes the space or doesn't remove it.
As an example, if I type "and when" and hit CTRL+Backspace, it will either delete the word only or the word and the space, but in most cases it will remove the space as well ("and when" becomes "and"). It seems to toggle between the two but I have no idea
what is triggering it.

Yep! And if you absolutely need (or think you need) that functionality, it is worth every penny.
As Don already pointed out, exactly what the recipient sees will depend on how they've set up their machine and what unnecessary 3rd party apps they might've installed to display attachments the way they want.
In theory, that is true. In practice, Attachment Tamer will cause more of your messages to show up as plain-jane icons on the other end. The problem is, after all, people running Outlook 2003 and 2007. These people likely aren't doing many system modifications.
If I were you, I'd use the free solutions provided above, save my money and let my recipients decide how they will handle their mail.
I completely agree.

How can I add a playlist without deleting the songs I already have on my iphone. It wont let me drag

This is driving me mad. I simply want to add a new playlist to my iphone but a message says that when I beging syncing it will delete my previous songs. I obviously dont want this to happen. In addition, I cant just add these new songs by dragging as it wont allow me to do it. Please help

Hi there. Not sure how to get to where I can ask you a question so I just jumped in here. Hope thats ok with you.
You seem extremely knowledgeable with solutions to all kinds of questions,
My problem is I tried to add a playlist from Itunes to my Iphone (5) and it will not add it. I have been doing this for years with all my Iphones and this is the first time its happened. I still have room to add them, so cannot understand what I am doing wrong.
I would really appreciate any help you could offer, thanks in advance!

How can I get CTRL-F to open the find dialog?

I am using Firefox V36.0.4 and when I am on the catalog site of mydoitbest.com and I press the CTRL+F to open the find dialog and it doesn't work. I contacted the authors of the site and they said:
"This is a quirk in Firefox actually, not our site. You need to either click at the top of the browser (in some blank area, like below the address bar) before pressing Ctrl+F or press Ctrl+F twice for the search bar to come up in the lower left corner. We updated our Firefox to your recent version and had the same result. If you click the top of the browser first or press Ctrl+F twice that will bring the search bar up."
I'm not sure I believe them... This is the only site that has the problem. I have tried Firefox in Safe Mode, it still doesn't work. I believe they are doing something to capture the <CTRL> key because when I press CTRL+Left Mouse Click on a link it should open a the link on a new <TAB>, but instead just opens the link in the same <TAB>.
Has anybody else reported a problem with Firefox? Any other ideas or any way for me to check the source for the page to see if they are doing something wrong?
Thanks, Keith

Hi, thanks for the reply.
No, that doesn't fix the problem.
I've done some programming and have been checking out their site. They are trapping the keys so the first time I press <CTRL-F> it puts a lower case "f" in their search box. If I press <CTRL-F> again the search dialog box does open. If I click on their search box first with the mouse, then press <CTRL-F> it works as it should.
I guess I'll have to live with it, because they don't seem interested in correcting their problem.
Thanks, Keith

How to delete email from iPhone ONLY and not from server?

Hi. I have a Yahoo! POP mail account.. Can anyone advise me how to setup my iPhone so it ONLY deletes email from the iPhone and NOT the server. So, after I read an email on the iPhone and delete it, the email remains in the INBOX on the server? If not, I will send a feedback to Apple. BTW - I can dl and send email just fine. Thank you.

ampullae,
When you setup Yahoo on the iPhone it defaults to IMAP because Yahoo offers free IMAP Push for iPhone users, as discussed in this article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305882
If you add your Yahoo account as "other" it will be setup as POP.
With IMAP messages are stored on the server, and messages created in one email client, such as the iPhone, show up in the sent mailbox on both. In addition messages moved to a different folder on the iPhone, will be in a different folder when you access your Yahoo mail via a web browser or another IMAP client. Likewise message you delete, will also be synchronized and deleted.
Hope this helps,

How can I make my iPhone sync with iCal on my Mac and not with iCloud?

I live and travel in Africa and wi-fi is frequently a luxury. iCloud syncing between Mac and my iPhones (a 3GS & 4) is not possible but when I turn iClod off, it deletes the calendar on my Mac. In another forum it was suggested that you export your various calendars (personal, business etc) to the desktop, log out of iCloud and therefore have your iCal calendar deleted, re-boot to clear anything in the cache, import the calendars which are then on My Mac and sync. It worked all the way until the last bit. Syncing the iPhone is clunkingly slow and it only syncs one of my calendars which is the only one that appears in the info dialogue box in iTunes when the iPhone is connected. Can anyone help? iCloud is I am sure fine for those who have regular access to wi-fi but not me - I will be happy to go back to my time capsule which has done me well over the years.
Some advice please

Plug yr iPhone to your compu in the old fashioned way with cable.
Just to cover yourself...select the iPhone in Devices of left pane of iTunes window, then on main pane, select radio button Back up to Computer. Right click on the iPhone in devices, do a backup. It shld then be on your compu'.
Then, back in main windo, select Info 'tab' from top of the right pane, and tick the Sync iCal events.
I'm sure this will help.
If it all goes pear-shape, u have the backup to restore the pre-sync device.

Delete message from phone only and not server

Hello,
I had an issue with my mail settings today and had to delete an email account (Hotmail) and set it up again. Upon doing this, there is no longer the option to delete downloaded message from the phone only and keep it on the server. Is that correct? I have tried everything but as soon I delete a message from my phone, it automatically deletes from the server as well.

How can I configure Mac Mail to use the correct SMTP server?

I have successfully set up Mac Mail to use a new e-mail account. Inbound and outbound mail is working just fine. However, I am seeing something odd when I create a new message or reply to an existing message. The outbound account that shows is not that which has been configured for the account. I can manually select the correct outbound account.
What are my troubleshooting steps?

One of the first things to check in Mail Preferences, Composing:

How can i connect my Imac sound to my stereo receiver speakers and not disconnect the computer's speakers?

I find lots of confusing answers re how to connect my Imac to my stereo receiver, and I aldso want to avoid cutting of the Imac's speakers entirely when the sound goes to the stereo receiver and thsu to the larger speakers. Is there a way to switch between them, or can i keep them running simultaneously, which is what I'd really prefer? What do i need to go to Radio Shack to purchase?
FYI, I have a 27" desktop Imac purchased 3 months ago, running Mountain Lion, and the receiver I want to connect to is an Onkyo TX-8050, wityh lotys of available ports in back - digital, universal, ethernet, and many rca ports "in."

I think this should work, although the description doesn't appear to cover this use. Call Griffin to confirm.

How do you get iMessages sent to your e-mail address only and not your phone number?

I want to send messages using my texts as well as iMessages to my girlfriend, she has a iPhone 3GS (I have iPhone 4) but i can't receive her texts when my internet is off, and only get her iMessages when I have turned my internet on. Is there something both of us have done or one of us?

Sorry about the confusion. What I actually meant was:
In Firefox you could use a method supported by the particular site like drag-and-drop from the desktop/folder into the webpage, use a button on the page to open/browse/upload an image/file etc.
But this error (send error) "1file can't be sent" seems to be related to the email site's service. The email site's support/forum could be helpful. You could also try to inform them about the error if they provide a contact channel.
You could also check the email site's help pages for information related to attachment size limits, and image type restrictions.
