How can i set Messages to auto answer video chats?

I used to be able to have iMessages and iChat auto-answer incoming video chat/calls. I use this to communicate with staff who may not be able to quickly accept the incoming event.

Hi,
The AppleScript for this is still there.
It can be set in Messages Menu > Preference > General Section in the bottom drop down.
The Sound/alerts pane has gone in Mavericks and sound can now only be changed for "Messages Received".
Although I must admit to not trying it I have presumed the AppleScript would then only work for Text Invites.
Having said that the AppleScript should be able to run as a separate even like an App from the Dock.
The Drop Down in Messages has an Option to Show In Finder effectively.

How can I set Messages to log into my account when I launch it.

I find it inconvenient to have to have to switch from offline to available each time I start up Messages. Is there a way to auto login in to an account when I start up Messages.

Hi.
gail from maine may have part of the answer but I an not sure it is all of it.
It seems you are talking about other accounts rather than the iMessages account as the iMessages account is not affected by the "when I Quit..." setting.
This means it should be AIM, Jabber or Yahoo types.
I would start by using the option in the General Section to Unlink multiple Buddy lists if you use them.
Under the Text Resizing slider is Buddy List stuff starting with Show All Buddy list in one List which is ticked (Enabled) by default.
This should show you the Buddy List as separate windows. (they are also listed in the Window Menu as separate items).
At the top left of each Buddy List is your Name (or Handle/ID for that Account) pulled from the Contact App > My Card.
Below that is the Current Status.
If you click this it shows the current Saved Status Messages (including the built in ones) and the iTunes Playing option.
At the bottom you can set to have All Buddy List show the same Message.
As you can see there is an Off Line option.
It should remember any Changes you make. If it is not it will return to the last setting.
If this is happening you will have lost Permissions to Write to the .plist involved.
Lets us know what is happening with this before we explain how to sort this.
It is getting late where I am and there will be some time (and some drink) before I am bac.

How can I set TB to auto delete emails after a certain period of time?

I have two email accounts set up in TB.. I am using TB 24.5.0, and one of the email accounts is a Gmail account, and the other is a Microsoft Exchange account with a domain I own running through Office 365. I suppose technically TB looks at that account like an IMAP, although it is not an IMAP per se.
In any event, I am coming to TB new from using Outlook 2010 and 2013. I would like to figure out a way to create rules for each of the email accounts that would automatically delete emails from my inbox after they are a certain age. I would also like to determine how I can establish a retention policy for emails I know I want to keep beyond their automatic purge time frame.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks in advance!

This only works with IMAP accounts.
Tools (Alt-T) - Account Settings<br>
Select your account - Synchronization and Storage
Make sure to move any messages you want to keep to the Local Folders account prior to making changes. Local Folders should be set to keep messages forever.<br>
Note, this is a manual step.

How can i set Safari to auto center my web browser everytime I open it?

Is there something I'm not seeing? It would be incredibly convenient to have safari start out dead center of the page.

1) From Safari's Bookmarks menu select "Add Bookmark Folder." A new "untitled folder" will appear in the left-hand side, highlighted and ready to be named.
2) You should already have separate bookmarks for each of your desired sites. Create them if you don't. Copy each of the desired bookmarks to the newly created folder.
3) Under Safari Preferences > General > "New windows open with:" select "Choose tabs folder..."
4) From the popup menu select the newly created folder and press Choose.

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?

How can I set up a rule to delete all messages older than 6 months left in Apple Mail's main inbox?
I have created other rules to move some of my daily messages into specific folders and I don't wish to auto-delete those.
Just the general stuff that keeps piling up in my me.com main email box. Mail such as FB announcements and other low priority stuff I want to look at before deleting but don't want to keep longer than a week or month.
TIA

Thanks, but I am looking for a more automated solution than hand marking emails as junk. I might as well move them to the trash myself.
Again, these are emails I want to receive and quickly read, but not keep longer than a week or month or so. By setting a rule to toss any older than 30 days back then my Mail program (and thus my hard drive) won't be wasting so much space. For example, currently I have over 6000 read messages, with their attachments, in my main email box. I'd rather not have to physically attend to sorting the one I don't want out.
The one I do keep for other reasons get moved into other folders.
It seems this should be possible.

How can I set up auto respond for email

How can I set up auto respond for email?

Hey there jimmac169,
It sounds like you want to have the Mail app automatically reply to emails that come in. You can do this in the app itself, but in order for the function to work, Mail needs to be open. Take a look at this info from the following article:
Mail (Yosemite): Reply to, forward, or redirect messages
Automatically reply to or forward messages
Mail must be open before it can automatically forward or reply to messages. If you want to send automatic replies when Mail isn’t open—like when you’re on vacation—check with the provider of your email account.
Choose Mail > Preferences, then click Rules.
Click Add Rule, then type a name for the rule.
Indicate whether any or all of the conditions must be true for the rule to be applied.
Set the conditions that determine which messages to automatically reply to or forward.
Choose options from the “Perform the following actions” pop-up menu.
Forward messages: Choose Forward Message from the first pop-up menu, then enter the email addresses where you want to receive the forwarded messages. Click Message, then enter any text you want to include with the forwarded message. For example, you could explain that you’re automatically forwarding messages.
Reply to messages: Choose “Reply to Message” from the first pop-up menu, click “Reply message text,” then enter your reply. Mail includes the full text of the original message in your reply.
Click OK.
Carefully consider the rules you create. If they’re too broad, messages can be sent inadvertently or create loops (replies to replies you sent). If possible, test the rules.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

How can I set up email so that if I delete a message on the iPhone it deletes it on my mac

How can I set up my email so that if I delete a message on my Mac it will also be deleted on my iPhone 6 and iPad

Why would you want that?
Doing so would defeat the purpose of syncing the email account.
Simply move the message to a folder or leave it in the inbox.

How can I set a signature on my text messages?

I have iphone4, recently changed my phone number. Prior to the change all of my outgoing sms showed my name and phone number. Since I changed the number have not been able to show the new number on outgoing texts. So I don't understand why my number showed before but unable to add it now.....?
I lost a lot of data when I changed the number so I performed a back-up restore, which restored the data I lost. But now my text messages are showing my old phone number.....!!
Any idea how I can change so the new number is displayed?
I use texting a lot more than I do email with my phone.

If you update to iOS 8, you can select that in Settings>Messages>Keep Message and then select your option. If you don't update to iOS 8, you'll need to do it manually.

How can I set the insert date to auto update in Pages 5.2.2

how can I set the insert date to auto update in Pages 5.2.2
I am attempting to have the date in header auto update in a Pages file.
I can insert it, but where is the AUTO UPDATE selection
OS10.9.4
thank you

Apple never included the auto-update feature for dates in Pages v5.2.2. You would have to single-click the date, and deliberately update it.
If you have Pages ’09 v4.3 in /Applications/iWork '09, then it will allow you to configure auto-update of the date field. Right-click on the date, set the format, and click the selection for automatically update on open.

You are writing that in the perspective of having read about it here already. Repeated often enough that you encountered it somewhere in the posts.
Users are flooding in here and don't know any of this. Of course we have to repeat everything endlessly.
Because I like to give precise, understandable and workable answers to repeated questions, and Apple doesn't allow sticky posts here, I created a separate forum which users can consult to look up real answers, and contribute for themselves if they have something valuable to add:
http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/
There is a section purely devoted to Pages 5. Add whatever answers you feel will lighten the problems of Apple's 'upgrades'.

* Where have they acknowledged anything?
** They have barely anything listed, compared to the massive list of deleted features, and nothing but an extraordinarily long time frame considering they created the problems here and now. Apple has not said they will do anything at all about fixing the real issues, the biggest of which is that the new iWork apps break virtually all the work of existing users.

How can I set it to delete messages off my server after they download?

How can I set it to delete messages off my server after they download?

IMAP email is server based. The messages stay on the server and just view them remotely with an email client like Thunderbird. If you want to keep a copy on your computer you need to move a copy of the email message to a folder under Local Folders. If you delete the message off the server, it is going to be gone otherwise.
The delete from the server option is a POP email server. It does not apply with IMAP email.
