If e-mail is moderately long if I delete a letter or digit the cursor disappears, have to recover it, all deleted letters or digits appear at end of e-mail

If I type a moderately long e-mail (I haven't counted the letters/digits to determine how long), then suddenly letters won't appear. If make a typing errors, and backspace over or delete the error/s, the cursor will disappear. It's not anywhere in the body of the e-mail (or anywhere else I've noticed). I can get it to reappear by highlighting every word in the e-mail, then undoing that.
All the letters/digits I've deleted reappear at the end of the e-mail--but only in the e-mail received (by the recipient). If I save the e-mail as a draft, when I look at the draft, the I'll see the deleted letters/symbols at the end of the e-mail. If I click on edit, they disappear. But recipients see all of them, regardless of whether I edit the e-mail or not.
The last time I asked this "question", I was told to update. That was probably 5 updates ago. There has been no change.
I don't know if the problem persists in safe mode because I have forgotten to switch into safe mode every time I use TB. Sometimes I remember to run TB in safe mode but don't have reason to type a long e-mail.
I'm really tired of this problem.
OS is win 7 pro w/service pack 1.

May I ask why? Have you learned that that specific problem is solved in a pre-release version? So far I've upgraded once on your advice, now I've upgraded again to 31. Problem's still there. Unless I'm told that the problem's been solved for sure in a latter version, I'm not going to upgrade because sometimes the upgrades bring problems w/them for a low tech user. I don't want to chat, etc., I just want to be able to send and receive e-mails.
I'm still working with the security software people re: some continuing issues w/FF.
I'd like to spend more time doing my work, or communicating w/friends, not dealing w/software problems.
Is there anyway of my finding out what, if any update, includes whatever is needed to solve my specific problem? I use Win7 Pro, SP1, 3.40 Gz processor, 3.19 Gb usable RAM, 64 bit OS. I don't know what other information is needed.

    I have made a website using iweb, as this will no longer be supported by apple, does that mean the gallery I have created on my website will no longer work even though I am hosting it with a different hosting provider. Will the other widgets no longer work?

    There are a few things that won't work on other hosting sites; hit counters and pop-up slide shows for sure.

  • I can no longer attach files in Yahoo mail since upgrading to FireFox 4.0.1. I click the "attach" button and nothing happens - no file list to select from appears; nothing.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1 the "attach files" function in my Yahoo Mail account no longer functions. When I click the "attach files" button nothing happens - nothing. No file selection box opens, no error message appears, no pinwheel of death, nothing.
    The "attach files" button is no longer 'hot' in FF 4.0.1 either = the "little hand" icon does not appear when I scroll over it. Other action buttons are still 'hot' ("attachments", "emoticons", "format", "hide bcc"etc.) - just not the "attach files" button.
    The Yahoo Mail "attach files" function still works when I use my Safari browser, however. So, it appears to be a FF4.0.1 issue.

  • E-mail app no longer works reliably on my Droid Turbo since the recent OS update

    The native e-mail app has become unreliable since the recent OS update.  All accounts (corporate, IMAP) have incorrect "Unread" totals.  The corporate exchange account won't send e-mail.  Clearing caches, uninstall/reinstall, all the usual don't bring resolution.
    I've switched to third-party e-mail apps pending what I hope will be a fix.
    Has anyone else seen this behavior?  Thanks.

    Okay, so tried one more thing and found the culprit - the problem no longer appears after I switch off 'Allow iTunes audio control from remote speakers' preference in iTunes. Apparently this problem happens due to an interaction between the AVR (Denon AVR-1912) and iTunes.

    What to do if the screen is stuck on the draft screen? I was writing a mail, saved it as draft, then later, was able to send it. However, the screen did not revert to the inbox page. The draft page seems to be hung or stucked. Safari and all others are working ok though.

    I sent the draft to myself several times. That did not seem to be working, but when I opened Mail this morning, it has been sent all of the times and the Mail screen is no longer frozen.

  • I have some long spreadsheets and want to open them at the bottom instead of scrolling down through all the data. How do I do this?

    I have some long spreadsheets and want to go to the bottom to add new data without scrolling down through all the old entries. When I open a table now it goes to the top row and I have almost 300 rows to scroll through. I would like to set the table up to automatically go to the bottom row.

    Zach,
    You have a couple of options. If you use 100% View Zoom, and if you leave a cell selected in the bottom row of the table when you Save and Close the document, it will reopen with that cell in view.
    You could also sort your table in the opposite order and add new rows at the top. Then you wouldn't have to worry about what zoom you use. To insert a row at the top, select a cell in the current top row and press Option-UpArrow. That will add a new blank Top Body Row.

  • After I downloaded and installed the latest iTunes upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free app upgrades for the apps I have on my iPad/iPhone/iMac which i had previously purchased. Itunes tells me I "don't own the major versions".

    After I downloaded and install the latest iTunes software upgrade (to 10.5.1), I am no longer able to download free upgrades to the apps on my iPhone or iPad.
    The App Store just says I "don't own the major versions", which of course is nonsense. It seems as if Apple's iTunes/App Store has deleted my download history. Any suggestions?

    Actually It doesn't. It says he's on a MacBook. I don't know all the different types of Macs. I was having a ton of problems with iChat. I opened DMZ to my computer, knocked down all firewalls etc and left everything exposed, still with bad results. A few weeks ago my power supply went out on my D-Link. I bought a linksys. Since I'd left all firewalls off I figured it couldn't be the router. I power cycled everything n the netork, still no luck. Today I bought a universal Power supply and started up my D-Link Router. Everything worked perfectly. My wifes computer - a laptop running Tiger worked fine with the Linksys and did my machine before the Leopard upgrade. Now that I've got the D-Link online everythings working.

  • Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!, Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars screen closes immediately? I have tried Restore and all software up to date... help!

    When I go to Settings > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars'  the screen closes immediately returning to the home screen? I have tried resetting the iphone - no change, I then restored the iphone completely - no change (all software up to date.) please help!

    I have the same problem with iPhone4, iOS5. The only workaround i have found was to disable the contacts and calender for the iCloud account. So much for being able to sync all my Mac products. At least with Mobileme everything but my windows products synced and worked OK.

  • I comment on controversial news articles, firefox no longer shows relevant news articles, when compared to the News section of IE it shows all news.

    Open yahoo and click the News tab in IE, and do the same for Firefox. IE displays real news but Fire fox is now displaying a watered down news and absolutely nothing of a controversial nature.

    hello dadjamey, firefox is just a browser and displays the site as it is received from a webserver (yahoo in your case) - if you have questions about the content served to you, you'd have to approach yahoo's support since only they control what news stories show up on their site.
    things might be different between browsers when you are signed in to the site with an account on one of them but not the other...

  • If I type a long e-mail, the cursor starts to disappear at times, if I make an error and delete it, or sometimes it just disappears

    I have Win7 Pro, using TB 24.6.0. If I type a long e-mail (I haven't counted the letters, the number would be many), then the cursor disappears off & on. The cursor disappears mostly when I make a typing error, backspace or delete the error. Eventually, I can't continue typing--cursor is gone. Sometimes the cursor has relocated to the beginning of the e-mail (top of the frame) and I have substantial difficulty moving it back to where I stopped typing. I cannot just click on where I stopped typing
    I saved one of these e-mails as a draft, and noticed there were many letters/junk at the end of the e-mail and one e-mail recipient told me she's seeing similar lines of letters/junk at the end of my e-mails.
    I've tried running TB in safe mode, but didn't have reason to type out a long e-mail while it was in safe mode so I'm not sure if it recurs in safe mode or not. I don't really have any add-ons. I mostly use the defaults TB assigns at download.
    Haven't had this problem before, it's a very annoying problem.

  • Email not opening This is a sudden thing, Email had been working fine for two months then today would not stay open now it will not open at all. after trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes

    Email not opening on my iPad2 This is a sudden thing, email had been working fine since purchasing the device then today would not stay open,  now it will not open at all. After trying to open mail I receive a white screen for a nano second and the app closes.

    Have you tried closing the Mail app completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Cursor disappears, sometimes reappears after a long time....WHY?

    I have a new Intel iMac and the cursor disappears for no apparent reason. Sometimes it comes back if you wait long enough but I'm using this computer for work so that isn't an option.
    I've tried different USB ports, different keyboards and mice and it keeps doing it. My current mouse is the mighty mouse that came with the computer.
    Is there anyway to fix this thing? Thanks for the help.

    Big --
    What are you using for a mousepad?
    Does it have any designs on it?
    To test whether it's the pad,
    use the mouse on a plain piece of white paper.
    Does it still happen there?

  • Mail 2.0 Problems Reply doesn't work, hitting space bar takes cursor away,

    Just upgraded to Tiger today, boy I wished I hadn't! Major mail problems. The 'Reply' only works when it feels like.
    Also, I am not able to type in the main body of the message. Typing is intermittent - it allows me to type a few characters, but as soon as you hit the space bar, the cursor disappears. You then have to click back in the main body of the message to make the cursor reappear again.
    I've tried removing the plist and Mail folder but doesn't help. Any suggestions?

    Thanks,

    This particular problem in Mail is usually caused by some LaunchServices cache corruption. The following article describes how to manually reset LaunchServices. The notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved.
    Resetting Launch Services
    The following article also describes the side effects of cache cleaning:
    Side effects of System cache cleaning
    The following article provides links to some utilities that can be used for troubleshooting and cache cleaning:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    It seems that the most appropriate utility for solving this particular problem is Tiger Cache Cleaner.
    In addition to the utilities mentioned above, you may also consider OnyX, if for no other reason, because it's free. If you want to try OnyX, after installing it, do this (be sure to read the articles about the side effects of cache cleaning first):
    1. Quit all applications.
    2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
    3. Click Maintenance. In the Reset section, check LaunchServices database.
    4. You may uncheck any other pre-checked options if you've already done them using other utilities.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, you may try again checking the Links between documents and applications option in step 3 instead.
    Please let me know whether you were able to solve the problem, what worked for you and what didn't.
