Hyperlinks won't auto format in Chrome or Outlook

Hi,
Wondering if anyone can help me as this is driving me crazy.
For some reason when I type a website, email or anything that should be a hyperlink it does not auto format after I hit the space bar. I have noticed this in Google Chrome and Outlook for Mac. I have checked the preferences already in Outlook and the checkbox to auto format internet extensions links is checked. Also I checked in Word if I had the same issue and I don't. Hyperlinks will auto format.
So now I'm thinking I've somehow hit some shortcut across the Mac Preference settings but don't know what it is!?! I work in email marketing so this link issue is drving me nuts!!
Please help.

Can anyone help here???
I've got further info. This is not an isolated thing with my Mac..everyone in the office experiences the same thing. In Outlook for Mac, Hotmail on Chrome, Hotmail in Firefox...hyperlinks don't automatically format when we hit the space bar or return? We are all operating in HTML format when in Outlook. We've reviewed all our System Preferences and individual program preferences to say 'Auto format internet extensions and links'.
It hasn't always been like this. Could it be due to an OS update?

Exchange 2013 OWA is not auto formatting hyperlinks when forwarding a message

I have 2 sales managers in a company that receive sales leads via email from our website. The email is formatted in HTML with a table containing the name and email address of the customer and the url of the product they're interested in from our website.
The managers then forward this email to the next available sales associate to contact the potential customer.
The first sales manager uses Outlook and receives the sales lead email with active hyperlinks intact for the email address of the customer and url of the product. When you inspect the email, there is no href code in the source, so outlook is recognizing
the types 'email address' and 'url' to make the text active. He then forwards the email to sales with active hyperlinks in the source. (they prefer this)
The second sales manager uses OWA. when he receives the email, the email address and url are plain text (which is how its coded) so when he forwards the email to sales there are no hyperlinks.
Is it possible to set OWA (for exchange 2013) to auto format (recognize then format) email addresses and url's from an email when forwarding it that didn't have the href code in the source to begin with? ...like Outlook does?

Hi,
Does this issue happen on all the OWA users or on specific user?
Does this issue happen when sending emails by HTML format?
Thanks,

HOWTO disable C#/MVC/CSHTML auto-formatting with VS2013.

HOWTO disable C#/MVC/CSHTML auto-formatting with VS2013.
Please help,
I have VS2013 with Update 2.
Attempts to disable automatic formatting is not working, even in safe mode.
If I get the following unacceptable auto-formatting when editing inside a CSHTML file (.cshtml) on the server-side C# code:
1) double d = MyFun("1", "2", "3");   ==> double d = MyFun("1","2","3"); <== Spaces after commas removed.
2) if (d == 4)    ==> if(d == 4)    <== Space after "if" removed.
      ==> { }     <== Brackets added on the following line.
I have tried removing them in the C# editor option in VS2013/Safe-Mode, and they won't go away.
How can I get this behavior to stop?
I have gotten a ".cs" module to behave properly, but not ".cshtml".

Hi J-S-B,
What have you done to disable automatic formatting? Some options below?
Please share what have you done to prevent this issue.

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I just want to type a letter and add pictures and titles, and Pages keeps changing font sizes and doesn't let me "Do it my way". I HATE this!

Is there any way to turn off the auto formatting in Pages? I'm using a blank document, so I figured I could write my letter and add pictures any way I wanted to. But NO! Pages keeps changing the font size! I typed a large heading as a title, and when I try to change to a smaller font for the body of the letter, it changes the size back to the larger size! I am getting SO FRUSTRATED! I've spent over an hour trying to get the stupid program to let me just type my letter! Can anyone help?

The only one left is the "unsubmitted text" dialogue, which would not be a problem if I were not a Facebook user; after updating the "Richard is..." field (which does not require a manual submit to actually send) I get the above message. This is obviously Safari just not realising that the info has been sent and is therefore (I imagine) one for Apple themselves to answer!!
You're welcome Rich. Glad to help.
Not being a Facebook User, I'm not sure how to respond to the error situation. However, this would be something to report to Apple as a bug via the Safari Menu. First, open to the page in question, then select "Report Bugs to Apple".

CS3 - Auto Format doesn't compact blank lines?

In Flash 8 on OS X, using Auto Format used to remove blank
lines. I can't seem to find a way to enable this in CS3. Is it
possible?

Additional three thoughts: First, is there anything I can do while still in MS Word to enable Acrobat to see the check boxes easier? Different font? Same font, but different "character"? Etc. Second, if there is no way the check boxes can be recognized and converted, is there a way to do an after-the-fact search-and-replace, searching for the check boxes and replacing them with clickable boxes. By the way, I don't need to capture data; I just need for people to be able to fill out the form on their computer and print it. Third, if Acrobat can't do this, is there third-party form software that recognizes check boxes?

Excel auto formats cell in CSV flat file.

Hi,
I am using an etext template to generate a CSV file (comma separated) and that piece works fine. But as soon as you open the generated file in Excel, it changes the format of one of the columns to a date! And once you have opened it in Excel, saving it changes the column value, so now I have wrong data!
The field value is : 8050-09-7 (Alpha)
When opened in Excel, it becomes: 9/7/8050 (Excel auto formats it)
If I save the file as a .xls file and not a .csv file, it works, but now when I open it, the entire row shows up in one line in Excel and each field is not in each cell.
The user wants to see the output first, verify the data and save it as a CSV file and export it to a vendor software.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Shaf

Hi Steven,
I think I understand what you are trying to say.
My data is getting generated initially as XML; I merge it with my eText template to get the final output. If I save the output as .txt, its fine. But users have a hard time reading comma delimited lines, though it will work fine for the customers.
<G_COMPONENTS>
<ID>12215</ID>
<PRODUCT_ID>379-9006-00</PRODUCT_ID>
*<CAS_NUMBER>8050-09-7</CAS_NUMBER>*
<CHEMICAL_NAME>GUM ROSIN</CHEMICAL_NAME>
<SUPPLIER>Name</SUPPLIER>
<PERCENT_WEIGHT>0</PERCENT_WEIGHT>
<PERCENT_VOLUME>0</PERCENT_VOLUME>

Finder won't auto arrange by kind-

Hi,
Since some time my Finder won't auto arrange my files by kind anymore. If I select this option, it simply doesn't do anything. I can auto arrange by name, dates, size, anything except for by kind. THis wouldn't be so much of a problem, if it weren't the only option I actually use to auto arrange…
Been trying to find a solution, but I don't find anything on the internet, and I don't seem to be able to fix it myself either.
Anyone who has experienced the same problem and knows how to fix it? Or someone who doesn't have the problem and knows how to fix this?
Thanks in advance

OK, it just works here, so I'd try this after my investigations...
First, Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient.

Outlook 2013 - BCC field won't auto populate with frequent email recipient. In the TO or CC, if they enter the first initial of a recipient, it auto-suggests recipients. This does not happen in the BCC field. Is there an option to turn that on?

Hi,
Does this issue happen to a certain client or many of them?
There is no separate option to enable/disable auto-complete for Bcc field.
Since auto-complete works in the To and Cc fields, it means the auto-complete is not corrupt. We may try turn off the Auto-Complete and turn on it again to see the result. To do this, go to
File > Options > Mail, scroll down to the
Send messages section, clear the check box before "Use Auto-Complete List to suggest names when typing in the To, Cc, Bcc lines". Click
OK. Check the box again, click OK and see the result.
We may also test it in Outlook safe mode. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
outlook.exe /safe and press Enter.
Please let me know the result.

How do I turn off text auto-formatting in Keynote?

How do I turn off text auto-formatting in Keynote?

You may uncheck some preferences in the Pages > Preferences menu item.
You may also define your own custom default template.
But you certainly are aware of that because it's described in the PDF User Guide delivered with every copy of iWork.

Bug in Auto Format

I copy a large chunk of code into a new project in CS3 and
press the Auto Format button, the result was that some of the '('
character disappear
the code before:
aoX = (aR * 0.607) + (aG * 0.174) + (aB * 0.201);
the corrupted code after
aoX=aR * 0.607 + aG * 0.174 + aB * 0.201;
Be careful
Yair

The promlem that Auto Format remove even it change the math
before
public function demo(val:int):int
return ((val - 5) * 7);
after
public function demo(val:int):int
return val - 5 * 7;
if val = 7
before result = 14
after result = -28
I have got weird result after I run an algorithm of painting
and thats was the reson
ANY WAY auto format should not delete any code and specially
parens

New version of Flash, same auto format bugs

When Flash CS3 came out, the first thing I noticed when I sat
down to use it for the first time was that the ActionScript Auto
Format was unusable because of bugs that were present in it. One of
the bugs was that it would actually REMOVE parenthesis from certain
lines of code, and next to object initializations. This made it
unusable because it would constantly break programs. So pretty
much, in CS3 you had this Auto Format feature (that worked
wonderfully in previous versions of Flash) that was just there and
couldn't actually be used by anyone who was going to do any sort of
serious programming. This was pretty hard to believe being that
Auto format worked fine in previous versions of Flash (I can't
remember if it was in 8 or after 8 it broke).
So I take my time, go to the Flash CS3 bug reporter, and
report the bug.
Fast forward a few years. CS4 comes out. I immediately buy
the upgrade. What's the first thing I look at? The Auto formatter.
To my dismay, it still contains the exact same bugs it did when CS3
came out years ago. I almost felt like asking for a refund. I don't
think it's too high of an expectation for a bunch of obvious bugs
to be fixed.
Then I have to ask myself, am I the only person on planet
earth who uses the ActionScript Auto format? I used to love it to
just clean up my code and indent it. I mean right now, it's just
like "there". I don't see how anyone can actually be using it in
its current state. Adobe should either get rid of it or fix it,
preferably fix it.
I guess my question is, to anyone really, or preferably
Adobe, what's going on here? Is this ever going to be fixed? It's
not really fair that a feature that used to work perfectly has been
broken in the last two major versions of Flash. Is there any
possible way for Adobe to send down a fix for this, or is there a
way for the user to fix it on their own?
Thanks in advance.

Never mind, I chose this option:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/latest/help/install_flash_player.exe
It finally allowed me to install. It is working. Adobe, I am disappointed that this update was so frustrating to install. Shame on you.

Migrating from older Flash Pro versions causes Auto Formatting to malfunction

I have recently upgraded my Flash CS4 to Flash CS5 on my MAC, and Flash CS5 to Flash CS5.5 on my PC, these upgrades are causing the Flash Auto Formatting feature to malfunction, it somehow becomes a tool that breaks my code and causes errors while exporting, instead of simply re-arranging the lines.
This is happening with all my codes and all my projects, not a specific line of code.
Anybody has a clue how to fix this? Is there some sort of an Adobe update for this?
Thanks folks!

Nope it is just badluck, i just answered this on another thread but google it im sure there is a way to fix this, i am sure of it.
but next time FINISH your projects before moving computers or flash versions because you might encounter this.
I have no problems with changing versions but changing computers OS is pretty understandable to cause errors.
hope this helped.

Pages: how do I turn off auto formatting and auto indenting!

I've got Pages 5.2.2 and for the life of me can't figure out how to turn off auto formatting!
When I hit return to move text to a new line, Pages automatically indents the new line, creating a new paragraph which is not what I want at all.
I'm using a blank template and have not altered the default settings at all. Any geniuses out there who can help?

If not already present, turn on your document rulers via View > Show Rulers. Does a ¯ symbol appear by itself, or is it accompanied by an inverted triangle below it? The first symbol indicates that you have a First Indent set to other than 0. The inverted triangle says that you also have the Left indent set to the First indent amount.
In Pages, if a First indent is set, any hard return will invoke a new paragraph with an auto-indent corresponding to the First Indent amount. First lines will be indented, and subsequent lines are flush left margin (unless Left indent is not 0). In word processing, we only do hard returns when we deliberately want a new paragraph. If you want to force an end of a sentence, without forming a new paragraph, with/out auto-indent effect, use either shift+enter, or control+enter.
The First, and Left indent settings in Pages v5.2.2 are here:
Toolbar > Format > Text > Layout

Turn Off Auto format that drops last line of a paragraph to next page

When I am writing multi-page papers, I will occasionally experience an auto-format annoyance where, if the paragraph I have written ends with just half a life of text on the next page, pages automatically drops the last full line of text down to the next page as well. I suppose pages does not want the short line to be lonely, but it leaves a large gap at the bottom of the page - particularly when the lines are double-spaced. I often have page limits on my assignments and am trying to squeeze as much in as possible int he space I am permitted, so losing these lines of text can be a great annoyance. How do I turn this feature off? Thanks.
