How can I stop Mail 5.2 changing my default font size in my signature in outgoing mail

I have my default font size for messages and signature in messages both set as Century Gothic 10.
When I send an email the message and signature font both appear correct in my saved "sent" email.
However the receiving computers receive my email with part ot the message text in Times New Roman 8, and the signature appears in Century Gothic 13!!!!!
I notice many others have had this problem but I have not seen a solution. Please help. The emails look very unprofessional.
I hope someone can help please

When you find non-junk has been erroneously considered to be junk, you have to tell iCloud.com about that particular mis-assignment by logging into your iCloud account on the website and following this procedure:
"Indicate that an email message isn’t junk
Click the Junk folder in the sidebar.
Select a message, then click the Not Junk button in the top right of the message window.
The message is moved to your Inbox. Subsequent email messages from the same sender are no longer automatically marked as junk."
Elsewhere in Apple's help system, they say
"You can also use the Mail app to mark messages as junk so that later messages from the same sender are automatically marked as junk:
In OS X, select the message and click the Junk (thumbs down) icon in the Mail toolbar."
They do not say that you can use Mail.app to unflag junk ("report false positives") by clicking the Not Junk (thumbs down) icon, but they also do not say that you cannot. I'm not sure whether that works.
Frankly it makes no sense to have to log on to iCloud to do this, when the very same features (i.e., "Mark as Junk" and "Mark as Not Junk") are built into Mail.app -- but don't reliably appear when messages are falsely marked as junk.
Bottom line: Although I love my Apple products, this is another one of the many features that's been broken for years -- and somehow just isn't imporant enough to Apple to fix.

How to change the default font size in X11?

I was a PC/linux user and have switched to use Mac lately (MBP Snow leopard 10.6.8).
Everything's been running perfectly on Mac so far and I really like it, until I have to run some programs on XQuartz/X11 (XQuart 2.7.0).
The default font size in the Xterm is too small. And I hate it that I have to change it everytime i open a new terminal (via vt fonts menu, ctrl+right-mouse click).
Is there a way to change the default font size "permanently" in XQuartz/X11 ??
This may be a stupid question to ask in the developer forum but i cant really solve it.
There's only config. file ~/.Xdefaults they have mentioned so far on Google but i really cant find it regarding to the directorty.
Thank you very much in advance.

You would be surprised to find out that is not like this, to get your account blocked you really need to do a lot of damage and posts are not removed unless they are illegal, and *always* it needs more than a person to delete something. That's a site managed by the community, not by some people put in place by a company.
It is always acceptable to link to external resources as long these resources do provide additional usefull information. Clearly the thread on that side contained much more information than the one here. I observed people linking from there to this forum, but it's not so common, and that's not due to the policy, just because here is more chat and less usefull information.... you will not see endless threads of replies on with "yes, I have the same problem" there.
Shortly, this is "discussions" and is quite different in approach than the SE model, where everythign is aimed towards getting the be answers UP and removing all the nonsense.
I wish that Apple would invest more in discussion, and going towards making this more practical.

How can I stop mail on iPad from going to next message when deleting an email?

How can I stop the mail app from moving to the next message when deleting an email?
I like to keep messages as new until I can take action on them, but this just makes an unnecessary step. I do not have this problem on my iPhone, but I am still running 5.0.1 on the phone and have the new iPad 5.1 software.

Hi furiousbalancing,
With regards to deleting messages in Mail, you may find the following portion of the following article helpful:
To prevent the next message from being automatically selected (and marked as read), hold down the Option key when you delete a message.
Mail (Mavericks): Delete messages
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14900
You can also use Command-Shift-U to toggle a message between Read and Unread (command should be the same in Mavericks):
Mail (Mountain Lion): Keyboard shortcuts
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11679
You can also close the Preview portion of the Mail window, which should then require you to double-click on a message to open it and have it show as read (it appears the double click on the seperator may no longer work in Mavericks, but you should still be able to drag it to make it disappear):

How can I stop mail from opening single page attachments.

I open some mail attachments in Notetaker app to make adjustments to some pages before sending on but when an attachment is only a single page it opens in the email message itself and then I can't open it. How can I stop this happening?
Hopefully thanks in advance

Hi Dave! This may help if you should want to save your emails to your computer which AM can do.
--Open Mail
--From Application Toolbar choose MAIL
--Choose ACCOUNTS from Mail tool bar
--Choose "Account Information"
--In the bottom right hand box -- Choose the "drop down box" (blue arrows) and Choose the mail box you want to send mail from
--Check "Use only this server". (Safari has a drop down on their tool bar that allows you to choose which box you want to send from.)
Go to Safari or a Web Page and send an email message. See if this works.
Of course, I'm assuming you have filled in the Account information for all your mailboxes. If not, that's a whole different procedure but well worth the effort, all your mailboxes are at your fingertips and you can save all your mail to your computer, back it up and never loose a word. :-)
Another caveat: I am using OS X 10.6.8 and the later versions of OS X may have dropped or modified Mail. Perhaps someone using one of the newer versions can add their knowledge here.
AM has many useful perks, it just takes time to find them but they really are worth the effort.

How can I stop my iPhone from changing appointment times when I move between time zone?

How can I correct the automatic date/time updates for daylight savings on my iPhone. It updates these changes on the wrong dates and sends my calendar into chaos.

Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Is Time Zone Support on or off?
If you don't want the date and time updated automatically with your iPhone, you can turn this off at Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > Off.

How can I STOP mail from syncing with .mac????

I don't have a .mac account, I will never have a .mac account, I have in mail prefs BOTH boxes under "synchronize with other computers using .mac" unchecked, and yet Mac Mail tries to tie up my entire system "synchronizing with .mac" all the time, especially when traffic is heavy (downloading or uploading). I've got activity viewer on and the stop sign is ghosted, there appears to be no way to stop Mail from doing this useless tie up time wasting process that manages to completely freeze up mail until it's completed and sometimes slow up other programs as well. I only have POP accounts, no IMAP accounts that have to be synced.
This didn't start happening until I upgraded to 10.4.11. Prior to that Mail blazed through everything, and it NEVER tried to sync with .mac.
Is there any way to turn this useless "feature" (for me) OFF?
Thanks!

How can I stop Mail from opening

Whenever I use ANY web browser (Safari or Firefox) and click on an e-mail (mailto) link, Apple Mail opens. It is driving me crazy. I am about to throw my computer away and go back to using good old paper and a pencil to do everything.
I have tried the following:
Firefox:
Preferences/Applications/mailto and changed the drop-down to gmail (that is the browser my wife uses and the mail she uses)
THIS WORKED FOR FIREFOX
Safari:
The preferences panel has nothing about how to handle mail requests.
So I went into Mail (which I frikkin hate by the way, worse than anything you could ever imagine)
Mail's preferences don't have an option for ANYTHING to handle mail... besides Mail (which is a horrible program).
When I click select and choose Firefox, Safari, anything, it reverts back to mail.
I want mail to STOP opening when I click an e-mail address. I am fine with the solution for Firefox. How do I configure Safari to do the same?
THANKS!!!!!

How can I stop Mail from automatically archiving every incoming and outgoing email?

Mail is automatically archiving every incoming and outgoing message, and then synch'ing that with my iPhone -- thus sucking up all available memory. I have never asked it to automatically archive everything, and can't figure out how to stop it. Any ideas?

Launch Mail.
Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Advanced
Uncheck the box beside "Include when automatically checking for new messages".
Do it for all accounts if you want.
Best.

How can I stop Mail from replicating a message & trying to send?

A few days ago I tried to send out an email with three attachments which totaled over 53 megs. Of course it was too large for the server and I recieved bounce back that the message could not be sent. I then created two seperate messages with the attachments at appropriate sizes. I have multiple email accounts and didn't tink anything of the event other than "I should have checked before sending..."
The next day I started getting the system warnings that there was no available space on my hard drive. The previous day I had over 5 gigs of available space.
After researching a few options I noticed the Mail application was having trouble sending an recieveing from one of the four accounts. Then I spotted the culprit - the account was trying to send out the mail with the 53 meg attachment. It was replicating and storing the message and attachment in the "On My Mac" saved mail folders as "Recovered Mail". It had replicated 100 times - 5 gigs worth. The message was not in my Outbox or Sent mail folders.
When accessing the newly created "Recovered Mail" folder and trying to delete the specific messages the application would crash. The work around was to delete the folder. Howver, the next day the folder re-appered and began populating the hard drive with duplicate files.
- Have tried virus scan (Norton AntiVirus) and using Norton Firewall to lock down all drive to internet traffic (annoying with block / allow mesages).
- Have tried deleting the account and re-creating it.
After a few hours or a day the dreaded "Recovered Mail" file was back and hogging drive space.
The account is accessible from my iPhone and through web browsers with no issues. I can't even find the offending message and attachment. So I suspect there is a bug / corruption in Mail.
HELP!
need to know how to fix it or if I have a new virus.
Thanks!

Is this an IMAP account?
If so, delete the messages in Mail from all folders and quit Mail.
Go the the website and clear the messages from all folders there.
Reopen Mail and verify the messages have been deleted for all folders.

How can I stop my login screen changing to shrunken dimensions when I log out from my account, it does so randomly!

Hi,
Does anybody know how I might fix the followin:
When I log out of my user account on my macbook the screen display has started to do weird stuff like change size so that the usual log in screen appears small and to the left, not filling the whole screen, then if someone else in the familiy logs in to their user they may have the same problem within their usual screen, with a small area instead of the full screen to work with. THe remaining screen displays blue, without the chosen wall paper etc. It seems to do this randomly so that logging in and out of accounts, shutting down and reopening can get things back to normal, but only until it goes weird again.
Thank you for any help.

It sounds like a problem wih the backlight inverter. Usually they just go, instead of on and off.
In a dark room hold a flashlight on the display when it blacks out. If you can see the items on the desktop, it's probably the backlight.

How can I stop Firefox from making itself the default browser every time it upgrades?

Every time there's a new version of firefox, it updates automatically, but it changes the windows file type settings so that firefox is now the default browser.
I have gone to tools > options > advanced and cleared the "Always check to see if firefox is the default browser" checkbox. It's not an issue on startup, only on upgrade.
This happens every time there's a new version of firefox.

Unfortunately the "web browser" I want to use is just a compiled script that examines the URL and then launches the proper browser to open it (because some pages are not standards compliant and work better in a certain browser). It does not appear in the default web browser list, but when I go to Tools > Folder Options > File Types, I can edit the firefox URL, URL http and URL https types and then it will work correctly until the next firefox upgrade.

How do I use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.

every time I go to a site I have to zoom in 3 times. I saw an answer that said use an extension to fix the zoom so it would stay where I wanted it. It gave two extensions to use, but I don't know where or how to apply them.

Here are two I've tried in the past:
* Default FullZoom Level: [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/]
* NoSquint: [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/]
After installing an extension and restarting Firefox, you can use the extension's Options dialog to adjust the starting zoom level. If the extension doesn't have its own menu entry or toolbar button, you can usually find that Options button here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
Any luck?
