How to Find Software Conflicts?

After migrating everything from G5 Mac to new Mac Mini, the formatting functions in Mail have not worked (keyboard shortcuts for Bold, Italic, Underline). I have run all software updaters including the recent 10.6.7 combo updater to make sure I have the current versions of everything installed.
I've done several tests:
•In my regular account, reboot into "Safe Mode" (restart with S key down) and Mail works fine. Reboot back into "regular mode," problems with Mail return.
•Create a new "Test Account" and open Mail: In "regular boot mode" Mail has problems; in rebooted "Safe Mode" Mail works fine.
So in either account, Mail works fine when in "Safe Mode," doesn't work correctly in regular mode. So I am assuming there is some software conflict when I am in regular operating mode.
If Mail works fine in Safe Boot Mode, but not in regular mode, how do I go about finding what software is conflicting with Mail? In old OS 9 days, we could restart with extensions and control panels disabled and add them back one at a time to find conflicts. But since working in OSX I have never seen reference to any such process.
(I have also disabled all "Log In" apps so nothing is running when I boot the computer. With no other programs running, Mail misfires -- so I'm assuming it's conflicting with something else.)
Any help on isolating software conflicts would be much appreciated.

There was very little in those folders -- a few files related to old software. I tossed everything, restarting and testing Mail as I went -- made no difference. Only one file left in USER>LIBRARY>LAUNCHAGENTS: [email protected].plist
Now nothing in the other folders.
When I first started working this problem a few days ago, command-I and command-B when composing mail would not work. Now, those two commands will produce italic/bold text when composing mail, but they won't revert to plain text when using keyboard commands (command-i/b). Again, all works normally when in "Save Mode" startup.
Thanks for these suggestions -- so far, nothing has made an impact.

  • How do find Software Component?

    Hi,
    I have to find a software component but wen i search it in IR  using namespace it takes lot of time so can you please provide me a simple way to find a software components by using any of the ID objects.

    Hi,
    On the integration builder page, (the page which is opened after executing SXMB_IFR transaction) click on SLD and then click on Software components and search there based on the name of SWC.
    If you want to find where ID object is used, you can open any ID object and on the top menu, click on button which can give all the objects where your ID object  is referring.

  • How to find Software Component (SWCV) with GUID

    hi,
    i have a problem in XI - Repository, regarding a missing SWCV
    6d53e350-a97d-11d8-a2dd-d61d0a114c15,
    how can i found out by this GUID, what the SWCV is? i mean the name and descrition of the SWCV

    Hi,
    SWCV stands for SoftWare Component Version, and I hope you have mentioned about the message ID and not the guid.
    For you to import the software component version in IR, it has to be first created in SLD.
    Could you explain where do you exactly get this error message. Is it in SXMB_MONI.

  • How to find Software Component Archives (SCA)

    Hi,
    Can anyone direct me to where I can find the SCA (software component archive) for Oracle 9.2. I have to import it into NWDI to be able to build my Web Dynpro application.
    Platform: EP 6.4 SP14
    I can find it in the software catalog in the SLD  - but have not been able locate the actual sca file anywhere.
    I am building a Web Dynpro application with direct integration to oracle using JDBC. This approach is necessary, as I get my connection parameters on the fly from other systems.
    Extract from the code:
    DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:"+oracleSystem,oracleUser, OraclePassword);
    An alternative could be to build an external library DC from the oracle jar file - (see: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/5a/2e2f4234135433e10000000a155106/frameset.htm">External Library DC from the SAP help</a>) - but does anyone have experience with this on the EP6.4 platform - as I cannot find the option to create a External Library DC in my NWDS 2.0.9.
    A second alternative could be to build the application using the NWDS 2.0.11, but will that work on the EP 6.4 platform?
    Best regards,
    Anders Broedssgaard

    Hi Anders,
    You're 100% correct about the purpose of NWDI. Indeed, you should use an External Library DC to follow your approach. BTW, in your NWDS you do see the SAP_BUILDT, SAP_JTECHS and SAP-JEE SCs?
    What I'm not so sure about is whether this is the correct approach. Maybe you should define the Oracle JDBC driver as a system library instead. That would be a DC of type J2EE Server Component / Library. Then I think you should set the <i>jdbc.drivers</i> system property to include <i>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</i>. Actually, changes are the Oracle diver is already present so there's no need to create some Library DC; just set jdbc.drivers.
    BTW, why would your Web Dynpro application need the Oracle driver at compile time? If you use <i>DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());</i> that's indeed the case. But why not just use <i>Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");</i>? If you set the jdbc.driver system property, you don't even have to use Class.forName at all.
    It's been a very long time I used JDBC directly, I hope everything I say makes sense...
    Kind regards,
    Sigiswald

  • How to find software release-

    Hi Everyone,
                     i am using BB-Z10 model. in that i want to know the software release of my smartphone.
         it is showing "No Information Available" under Software Release.
        Can anyone brief about this..........

    Or one step further at Settings > About > OS > and you'll see the Software Release and the OS Version.
    In this forum we most commonly refer to the OS Version.
    If you have 'no information available' likely means you've installed a leaked OS file and that field will not be available.
    No big deal.

  • How can i troubleshoot a "software conflict between a device and something in my original user account"

    hi
    my canon video camera (HV20) wasnt being recognised by iMovie (error message...in system report was "Unable to list FireWire devices".)
    in researching a solution i came across some firewire advice in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1151#trouble which suggests there may be a "software conflict between the device and something in your original user account."
    i changed to another account on my iMac and my camera connected immediately.
    is anybody able to explain how i go about fixing this "software conflict".
    many thanks
    Carlo

    With the Mail.app quit and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail > Mailboxes > Outbox.mbox.
    The Outbox.mbox represents "Out" in the mailboxes drawer and is shared by all accounts.
    Delete the Outbox.mbox and empty the Trash.
    Launch Mail and a new Outbox.mbox will be created automatically by Mail within the Mailboxes folder and this should resolve the problem.
