How to set 'Expand All Conversations' as default in Mail.app

Can anyone suggest a way that 'Expand All Conversations' can be set as the default layout. I realize how it can be implemented from the menubar command or via the message's triangle icon, but each time I close Mail, the app reverts to the closed layout. I would prefer to retain the expanded layout at all times (in the same way the user can tick off 'Organize All Conversations' and retain it across restarts).

You can create a custom keyboard shortcut to expand all conversations easily.
- Go to System Prefs
- Select the Keyboard icon
- Select the Keyboard Shortcuts tab
- Click Application Shortcuts
- Click +
- Select Mail from the Applications drop down
- Enter exact Menu item " Expand All Conversations" without quotes of course
- then choose a shortcut you prefer
     - Suggest testing out the shortcut you prefer on Mail to make sure it is not currently used
- Click Add
- When you get back to your Apple Mail, you can now use the shortcut everytime you want to expand all conversations...
Unfortunately, I couldn't find any other solution so far...

  • Forum question: How to set Show All Messages as default?

    I seem to remember there was a way to set this as a default, so that when one clicks on a topic, all new (unread) posts are shown. Currently, I only see a subset of the new postings, and I have to click on "Show All Messages" to see them all. The number shown initially seems to be arbitrary. I know that postings that I've read will not show up, but how can I get all unread postings to show by default?
    Thanks!

    That depends on what you mean. If you mean two iTunes Store accounts, no. Only one Apple ID can be logged into the iTunes Store at a time and if automatic download, iTunes Match or re-downloading of content is used the ID can not be changed for 90 days.

    If you previously had been using the same Apple ID for iTunes Store purchases for both of you there is no reason to change what you've been doing. If this is your wife's first iPhone, and you want to share the iTunes Store account just don't use the new Apple ID you created. As long as there are no purchases on it there's nothing to worry about.

  • How to set InDesign CS5 as the default in the system having InDesign CS4 has the default ?

    How to set InDesign CS5 as the default .indd application when you have InDesign CS4 and CS5 installed and InDesign CS4 is the current default (InDesign CS4 was installed after CS5 installation)

    Thanks, but I already tried it at first but it is not the effective method.
    I think its because of the this reason :
    Both - InDesign CS4 and InDesign CS5 have their application/program/exe named as "indesign.exe".
    Installation of either InDesign CS4 or InDesign CS5, sets a Windows default path for the "indesign.exe". In this case, since InDesign CS4 was installed later (after InDesign CS5 was already installed), the "indesign.exe" which was directing InDesign CS5's "indesign.exe" was replaced by InDesign CS4's "indesign.exe".
    But after long google and search through regedit, I've got the solution :
    Locate HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\InDesign.Document\Shell\Open\Command in regedit
    Change the value of (Default) attribute to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe InDesign CS5.5\InDesign.exe" "%1"     // Include the quotes

  • "Expand All Conversations" GUI Script-Mail

    Hi,
    I prefer to use the "Expand All Conversations" view in Mail, however, it doesn't automatically enable after you recieve new messages, so I wrote a GUI script 2 days that selects the "Expand All Conversations" menu (under View) in Mail and I then setup a rule (To Every Message-Run this script).
    My only problem is that now whenever I get a new email, the active program switches to Mail (which is extremely annoying, especially as I have assigned Mail to another Desktop!)
    Here is the script:
    tell application "Mail" to activate
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Mail"
              tell menu bar 1
                        tell menu bar item "View"
                                  tell menu "View"
                                            click menu item "Expand All Conversations"
                                            tell menu "Expand All Conversations"
                                            end tell
                                  end tell
                        end tell
              end tell
    end tell
    Does anyone know a way to work around the "Activate Mail" line of this script, or another way of doing the same thing without using a script?
    Thanks.

    Actually, just avoid the first line:
    tell application "System Events" to tell process "Mail"
         tell menu bar 1
              tell menu bar item "View"
                   tell menu "View"
                        click menu item "Expand All Conversations"
                        tell menu "Expand All Conversations"
                        end tell
                   end tell
              end tell
         end tell
    end tell
    This can run in the background.

  • How to set the number of rings before voice mail answers?

    How to set the number of rings before voice mail answers?

    For me its:
    1. Open the phone app and dial *#61# on the Keypad. Press the Call button.
    2. Locate this text on the screen: "Setting Interrogation Succeeded, Voice Call Forwarding, When Unanswered, Forwards to +" and record the 11-digit number after the + symbol.
    3. Touch the Dismiss button. Now enter this code on the Keypad: *61*+ followed by the 11-digit Forwards to number recorded in step 2, followed by *11 and *ringtime#. Ringtime is the number of seconds you want your iPhone to ring before voicemail picks up. Your finished code should look something like this:
    *61*+18555513466*11*30#
    In the example above the ring time is set to 30 seconds. Press the Call button.
    4. You should receive the message: Setting Activation Succeeded. Press Dismiss and next time you receive a call it will ring for the new amount of time before going to voicemail.

  • How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    How do you delete a VIP mailbox from the mail app?

    From Mail help:
    Make a sender a VIP
    To keep track of messages you receive from especially important people, make them VIPs in Mail. You can have up to 100 VIPs.
    To make someone a VIP, move the pointer to the left of the sender’s name in the message header and click the star that appears. You can also move the pointer over the sender’s email address, click the arrow that appears, and choose “Add to VIPs” from the pop-up menu.A mailbox for the VIP is added to the Favorites bar. For example, if you make Dad a VIP sender, his messages are displayed in a VIP mailbox titled Dad.
    To remove VIP status from a sender, click the VIP’s star in a message. The star is removed and the sender’s VIP mailbox is removed from the Favorites bar.
    If a VIP has several email addresses in Contacts, messages from any of those addresses will appear in the VIP’s mailbox.
    If you use iCloud Contacts, your VIPs are available on your other Mac computers that use iCloud Contacts and have OS X Mountain Lion installed.
    So to remove a VIP mailbox, you would have to remove all its people, and then exit mail.

  • How to Set "RETAIN" provisioning action as default???

    Hi All,
    I would like to  keep "RETAIN" provisioning action as default in ARQ while "adding" a role.
    Actually, there is one configuration parameter "2045" which will make it possible. But this is ONLY applicable to the situation where a role is selected from existing assignment by clicking on "Existing Assignment" button.
    As soon as a role is selected from the existing assignment automatically the provisioning actions is set to "RETAIN" (due to the config. parameter 2045).
    But what I want is, whenever a user adds a role to a user in access request form, the default provisioning action should be set to "RETAIN". I could not find any suitable configuration parameter for this.
    Has anyone set this before? Or does any one know how to set it?
    Please advise.
    Regards,
    Faisal

    Hi Alessanrdo,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Actually the motive behing this option is to cover the "loop hole" of ARQ application. If you notice, we can "keep" adding the same role which is already assigned with different validity dates. ARQ does not control this!
    Eventually, what happens that in the back end system, the user master record is overwhelmed with the same role entry with different validity dates!
    Unfortunately, application does not have any control over this. Therefore, at least making "RETAIN" as the default provisioning action, we can have a "sort" of control over this. What happens is, if I add a role which is already assigned to a user and change the validity dates, there will not be any new entry in the back end system with the same role.
    Hope this will help you understand the requirement and advise me.
    Regards,
    Faisal
