I'd like to know how to change my profile picture that appears on mail threads on my mac.  please help.

There may be other methods, but below is how I change my email photo.
Here is how to change your Mac Mail email photo in Mountain Lion:
Open the App called "Contacts". Type your name in the search field. Your contact info and photo should appear. Click on your photo. You now have some photo options. I use the "Recents" tab, and simply drag photo files from Finder into that window in Contacts. Drag and drop.
If you have trouble finding yourself in "Contacts" you can also get there by doing this:
Open one of your sent messages. Double click your photo in that message. This opens another window with your photo in it. Double-click that photo. This should open your contact information in the Contacts App.
Hope this helps.

  • Hi I would like to know how I can view a video that has been send via mail. When I tap on the video it only gives me the option to send iit as mail again

    Hi  I would like to know how I can view a video that has been send to me via email. When I tap on the video icon it only gives me option to send as a mail or to open in drop box which I don't want to open in.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    If you are doing this from your phone (as you mention) then you can use the new iPhoto Photo Journal feature to do this.
    Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might consider DropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage.

  • I re installed my original software and now I don't know how or if I can retrieve all my old pics and files!!  please help i have a mac osx 10.5.4

    Not sure I understand how Migration Assistant is doing anything. I thought MA was for connecting your computer to another computer or volume and transferring files. I'm just not sure how you're using it. Like I said earlier, everything you do on your Mac overwrites more of what data may have been recoverable if there even was any. Not to kick you when you're down but this is exactly he kind of a situation where a time machine or other back up would have saved you a lot of heartache. I'm sorry but I don't think I can be of any help :-(

    Change it in System Preferences > Users & Groups, right-click on the picture. Also be aware that this picture is not visible to people who recieve your email, unless they have the same picture for you in their AddressBook.

  • Apple Mail 7.3 - How to change my profile picture?

    Hi!
    I checked the old available posts, but none of them really solved my question, so here I go again with my question regarding the small picture shown on outgoing mails in Apple's Mail 7.3.
    Currently it shows a default 'green lightning' picture on my outgoing mails in the upper right corner.
    I did: System Preferences > Users & Groups, and selected Current User (Admin/myself), and dragged and dropped a new personal picture into the picture box showing the old 'green lightning' default picture which was then substituted by the new pic of my choice. All done.
    However, Mail 7.3 after numerous restarts and 48 h later now, STILL shows on outgoing mails the old 'green lightning' pic which I had substituted before via Sytem Preferences > Users & Groups.
    Can anybody help?
    Thanks!!

    Hey MN072012,
    Thanks for the question. The picture is actually pulled from your card in Contacts. If you open up Contacts and find the card that is associated with your email address, I suspect you will see that the “lightning” picture is still linked to that card. Try changing it there and sending a test email to yourself.

    Add or change the contact pictures that appear in contact cards and in other apps that use contact information, such as Mail and Messages. Your contacts don’t see the pictures; only you do.
    Thanks,

  • How to change guest profile picture on Macbook Air?

    There are two accounts on my MacBook air: My one, and a guest one. I understand that you can set a profile picture to come up on the log in screen for my account, and I would like to do the same for the guest account. How can I do this?
    Thanks

    The guest user icon is a PNG file stored deep within OS X. I don't recommend you change operating system components that exist at that level though. Besides, the change is not likely to survive an OS X update.
    If you really want to change it I'll post its location, but you'll be on your own if something breaks.
    Edit: You'd be facing the same problem as in your other question: How to change folder symbol on desktop back to original? Modifying the Mac's basic user interface fundamentals can result in instability. If you want to perform that sort of customization anyway, always have a backup strategy in case something goes wrong.

  • I would like to know how to change my Apple ID on my iMac to my current ID

    I am having trouble using iCloud on my iMac. (2011 model) When I go into it, an older email address comes up not connected to my AppleID anymore. My other devices are fine with the new appleID but I don't know where to change it on the desktop. I went into settings to see if was a way, but I'm not quite savvy enough to find the right place. Please could someone help?
    Thanks

    Go to System Preferences>iCloud and click 'Sign out'. Then sign in with the new ID.

  • I need to know how to download all photos AND videos from 2 "libraries" within Adobe Revel. Please help.

    I was quite angered last night when I posted the first time, so lets try this again:
    Here is my setup:  I have adobe Revel on my Mac and iOS devices and it has worked quite well to be honest until I recently realized my photos and videos are basically trapped within the software. There is no way (that I am aware) to export all photos/videos or any kind of tool to pull the raw data out of the app and put it into say iPhoto or Lightroom.
    Since I am not a fan of this sort of lock-in, (something I despise and encourage companies never to do), I am sadly going to cancel my Revel account once I get this sorted and store my photos elsewhere. This is a huge missed opportunity for Adobe, as the money is not an issue - its simply that the quality of service I need just doesn't seem to be there for this product.
    So here is what I am trying to achieve:  I simply want every one of my photos and videos to store on my hard drive like the old days.  I don't care about folders or hirarcy or any kind of organization - I can do that with the metadata later. I simply want all of my things. 
    My hang up is in that I have already tried methods like "Show package contents" in the photos/adobe revel route and that works to an extent, but is incredibly cumbersome as I have to sift through all of the many folders.  If that were the worst of it, I might be ok.  But what is truly alarming and making this difficult is that I don't know where on earth the videos in Revel are actually stored.  They show up in the application and I could export them one by one but I literally have hundreds.  I can't find the actual files on my Mac anywhere.
    Is there anyone at all who can help with this?  The goal is to make this transition fairly easy and I feel that Adobe has very intentionally made it very difficult to consider leaving. I spend >$50/month on Adobe services and I am a little in shock this application seems so poorly designed for anything other than just dropping your photos into it.  Please, please help if you can.  I would be so grateful as Adobe customer service doesn't seem to know or care much about supporting this product.

    Hi KDT
    Yeah. I agree, if you are used to a situation where "it's on the cloud AND synced down to your hard disk where you can get it" Revel is not exactly that. There were legacy decisions behind that - most not as sinister as you might think but I won't bore you with those details.  AND yes you are correct. We currently don't have any way for you to wholesale download everything at once. So you aren't missing anything. Until we provide that mechanism I can provide some guidance.
    I'm going to assume you have the current version of Revel on your Mac which is 2.0.
    The easiest thing for you to do will be to export your files manually. You can actually select a range of files and export. So it's not a one by one thing.
    You'll have to decide how best to perform the selection based on your photography habits. If you tend to take batches of files surrounding specific dates. You could do it by date. In the date view (In the applications upper right "Showing: Dates"). If you look at the end of a date row you'll see a small grid. If you click that grid you are taking into a grid view of just that date. If you select all and file>export you'll export the contents of that date.
    The other option is remaining in Grid view (In the applications upper right "Showing:Grid") and perform a shift+selection where you select your first file, move down the desired range and while holding shift you select a second file (standard multi-select stuff).
    One thing to keep in mind as you do this. You'll notice when you export you can export original or 'current version'. Export original does just that. Exports unedited original versions of your images as they were uploaded to us. When you export the current version of an image we'll export a rendition of the edited image. This "current version" image is not the original and in most cases will be a rendition that is not the same size as the original. So keep that in mind as you proceed.
    Not ideal, I fully realize, but I do hope it gets you closer to having your images back on your hard disk as you desire.
    As for your subscription. Assure you have checked your iOS Appstore subscription settings and set Revel to not auto-renew. Unfortunately for a pro-rated refund on the subscription balance you no longer desire you'll need to work with Apple as they hold the purse strings for Appstore purchases. Refunds haven't been a problem in the past so you should have no issue.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I change the background picture that is shown when i start my Mac?

    On the iMacs in my school they have a different name for everyone of the after for example the band Queen and then there is a picture on the inlogg screen with queen on it. So then you log in and there is another background picture after that. I Have a macbook pro and I would like to change that "start-picture".
    Right now it´s kind of boring and grey. Can you change it somehow?

    It sounds like you're using Adobe Send for Outlook.  Correct?
    Unfortunately, there is no way to change the default text that is inserted into your message. You'll have to change it each time.
    I will pass along your request to the Adobe Send team.

  • How do I change a document so that I can fill it out online, someone please help asap

    Someone PLEASE help me.  With my job, I have to complete online Marketing Analysis.  How can I change the document so that I can fill it out online and email it back?

    I believe you need a full version of Adobe Reader in order to fill out online PDFs. I don't think the built-in PDF viewer capabilities of Preview.app on the Mac allow you to fill out online PDFs. You can download a free copy of Adobe Reader from their website http://get.adobe.com/reader/?promoid=BUIGO

  • HT1212 Hi, i would like to know how to change my back up computer for my i phone

    Hi , how do  you go about changing your back up computer

    Normally when you connect a new iPhone to your computer iTunes will recognize it as a new iPhone and ask you how would you like to set it up.  If you didn't get that screen then you may have used the iPhone prior.  If it didn't  then try deleting all data then connect the iPhone 4 to the computer and it should go to the iPhone setup screen where it will give you the opportunity to setup your iPhone as a new device (the name of your old iPhone should be in the name box).  If that don't happen then do this, keep your iPhone connected to the computer, launch iTunes then click on the iPhone icon in the left window then click on the app tab on the main window make sure all of the app have a check in the check box, also check all of your other tabs then re-sync.
