How to reply to specific post

Probably a dumb question with a simple answer but ...
I was recently very confused until I found I was using "Sort Messages by Threading" as opposed to "Oldest to Newest". However it raises a question:
When I view a thread, there is only one "Reply" link that I see in the top left of the page showing multiple posts in a thread.
So, how do I know what post I'm replying to when I hit that Reply link?
Thanks in advance,
Ian

Ian W -
The reply button at the top of the page (the blue one) will reply to the original message in the thread.
The reply buttons on each message (the black ones) will reply to that particular message.
For example, if a thread has this structure:
Question
-Reply 1
--Reply A to Reply 1
--Reply B to Reply 1
---Reply x to Reply B
-Reply 2
The blue reply button at the top of the page will add a
-Reply 3
to the very end of the thread.
The black reply buttons at the top of each message will reply to that particular message. That is how Reply A, Reply B, and Reply x were created in the example above.
Hope that helps. If the threading view isn't the easiest way for you to view the messages, then feel free to change your settings to "Oldest to Newest" or "Newest to Oldest" to best fit your needs.
Thanks!

I am afraid that I cannot work out how to reply to a post? I would like to thank someone for their help and I cannot work out how to!

When you read another's post, you should see "Reply" in bold letters in the lower right corner. Here is how your post looks on my screen:
I clicked "reply" to right this answer.
If this is not showing up, it could be due to the system maintenance last weekend. Many of us noticed glitches that cleared up when we emptied our Safari cache:

Can't reply to the post about my not being able to reply

I had a problem with the reply button not working after I tried to reply to a solution to an earlier posted question about Final Cut 7.
I got an excellent reply from ChitlinsCC describing the problem with possible solutions, basically adding automatic reloading tabs to my browser, Safari or Firefox. Unfortunately the downloads led to deadends although I appreciated the description of the problem. I wanted to offer my reply, made within two minutes of receiving notification in my Mac Mail. Unfortunately there was no reply button when I clicked on the link to take me to the forum. However, I did log on to the forum all over again to reply to Chitlins only to discover that the reply button once again had no effect.
Is this happening to anyone else or is this just a case of my astrological good will being mucked up by that spaceship that landed on the comet. :-)
Any ideas about how to reply to a post?
And in any case, this is my attempt to thank ChitlinsCC for the help even though the solution appears to be beyond the browser add-ons that didn't seem to work. :-)

howdy robert
wasn't ME the thread was broken for, but the OP of this one (#2 continuation)
broken = Cannot post - User ' ' is banned from posting. -- it was about asafhan (or whatever the name is)... remember, only broken for user 'CBFilms'
I do not know what efforts CBFilms made to solve the issue, BUT it has happened to me as a replier on at least two others. It is clearly associated with the user AppleID.
Another anomaly recently is 'disappearing posts' - one gets an email notice, navigates to reply, shows the post as "last post" at the top, but no post present. I have had this twice today. And yes, not being my first rodeo, I tried all clearing, restarting, etc. - still no joy. As a Guest, post is present, as ME, it is gone. The solution I found is to post any reply to any other post and voila!... missing post magically appears! I think the JiveCoders have fixed some things and inadvertently caused some new ones. As a coder from way back, it is not uncommon for that to happen.
I, like bob, have come to the conclusion that we are stuck with a system so 'seasoned to Apple's taste' that it will never work completely right. JiveSoftware provides enterprise community solution to lots of big outfits, in a much more robust way (the way it was designed) - as we are not privy to their communities, we'll never be able to compare.

For the past week or so I no longer see the toolbar in the Comcast Help Forums to reply to a post made in that forum. Has there been a change made to my iPad 3 settings and how to fix it?

Has something changed in the iPad 3? I Go to the Comcast Help Forums daily as a Volunteer Moderator and for the past week or so when I open a post in the Forum and attempt to reply to the post, ai no longer have a toolbar which contains different options that should be
available to me. Such as quote, font. Font size, inserting a link or image,etc.
Now- I do not have a toolbar at all! I already contacted Lithium who is the company that creates and maintains the Comcat Help F or umps.
What has happened and how do I resolve this? I would not be at all happy if Apple has done something that is now preventing me access.
I use my iPsd 3 daily for monitoring and helping in the Comcast Help Forums.
Thank you,
CCC.

If this is what you are used to seeing in the Comcast forum, you need a browser that can identify as a desktop browser. Safari does not do this. I am using iCab Mobile and this is what the forum looks like when I sign in.

When ever I try to reply via email it rejects saying file to big or can't find recipent.
It did the same thing on the HTC community when I had that phone and this is from my PC not the phone.
So can somebody tell me how to reply without having to log on to Verizon every time? Thanks.

Thank you for the prompt reply, Nicolas.
This post of mine might be too complex for the Java -> Java Essentials -> New to Java forum:
packages and JAR files
Perhaps it would be better placed in the Java -> Development Tools -> General Questions forum (?):

Is there a better forum?I have not knowledge on this area, I cannot say. It's up to you to decide and I can move it, or wait for an other moderator who know better this domain.

Can't find "Quote Original" button for Reply to a Post

When I went to reply to a post I wanted to use the same quoting format that I saw others had used. So I went to "Help & Terms of Use" to learn how to do this. The info given is: "If you want to quote specific text from the original message, click Quote Original to add all the text from the original message to the Message box." I could see no such button. So I replied without using the desired format and at the same time asked the person I was replying to about this. That person's reply back was: There's a '"' icon in the compose window when you type a reply. If I'm doing a lot of quotes (as I did here) I use that, then edit out the bits I don't want. Otherwise I copy and paste the text and add a > before the line to get it to appear in the special format.
I'm still mystified! I see no such button, icon or anything about "Quote Original" in the "Reply", "Compose" window. I also tried adding a > before the line, but nothing happened.
I was originally attempting this using the Firefox browser. To make sure the problem was not a Firefox glitch, I switched to Safari, with the same result.
How is "Quote Original" done? Where is that button?
Thanks in advance

Thanks, Limnos (again!!). I wonder why the Help info doesn't just say what you now did. .... Click on the " in the formatting panel just above the compose window (rather than click on "Quote Original").
I do though feel a little stupid for not having clicked on everything that could possibly be clicked on. I'm now wondering what I was thinking those " marks could possibly be for since I do have the " key on my keyboard if I want to quote a phrase that I'm typing. I just was thinking that all those formatting items are for the typing of my reply and I didn't hold my cursor over each for the info box to appear. Oh well, thankfully, all my present posts are now solved. Thanks to you again Limnos.

Cannot reply to forum post without being registered; but can't register without creating a new thread

I wished to reply to a forum post with new information that will be of relevance to anyone searching for a solution to a particular problem. I did not have a support account with Mozilla. I found that the site would not allow a reply from an unregistered person. Fair enough, but it gives you no way to create an account then reply to the post. The only way you can create an account is by creating a new thread - which is what I am doing now! Crazy or what? It then took about 10 minutes thrashing about on the site to find out how to create an account. Frustrating or what? Thank goodness Firefox itself is built to much higher standards.

Suggested fix for an admin to apply:
Replace the text that appears at the bottom of a thread while signed out - "You must log in to your account to reply to posts. Please start a new question, if you do not have an account yet."
...with one that reads "You must log in to your account to reply to posts. Please [https://support.mozilla.org/get-involved sign up to contribute], or start a new question, if you do not have an account yet."
This little seeming catch-22 gave me a chuckle, but I'm glad this thread was already here so that I didn't have to waste space. Someone needs to fix this soon though, lest it put more people off contributing.

How to open and close posting period for both material , n invoicing

HI
how to open and close posting period for both material , n invoicing , AM NEW TO SD , SO ALL DOUBTS I DO POST IN HERE PLEASE DONT MIND

Hi Sunaina
Period Open T.code: MMP1
Period Close T-Code: MMPV
Automate the opening of MM periods
How can you automate the monthly opening of MM periods (transaction MMPV - program RMMMPERI) with
SM36?
RMMMPERI accepts a period/year or a date.
If you enter a date the period is derived by it.
1. create a variant and check the attribute 'selection variable' for the parameter date. Then click the button 'Selection variables' and set the current date. Every time this variant is used the parameter DATE is filled with the current date.
2. create a job for RMMMPERI with the variant created in the preceding step. Set it as periodic.
If you're not using a fiscal year variant simply schedule it as monthly (to be executed the first day of the month).
If you are using a fiscal year variant you'd have to define a calendar with only the first day of each period defined as working
day and use it in the periodicity restrictions.
Another possibility:
Write a very simple ABAP which run daily to check if the period has changed and submit RMMMPERI.
