Mac Mail contacts no longer auto filling in the 'to' field

I have suddenly lost the ability to have the contacts from my account in my contacts program auto fill int he 'TO' section of Mac Mail
Yosemite 10.10.2
the contacts are there in Contacts and they were auto addressing as I typed a few letters now they are not.
Then when I go to prefs in Mail I can't select all contacts in Compose.
Why did I loose this auto feature all of a sudden,
how do I set Compose to use All Contacts for all my accounts
"Send new messages from" has no selection for ALL CONTACTS.
THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP YOU CAN OFFER.

Ok, I don't know if I can do this but I'm gonna reply and explain how I fixed my problem.
Seems my main email contacts, I exported my ALL CONTACTS to Gmail and now in my Gmail account the address's show up with just the first couple of letters in the address.

My Mac Mail program no longer stores any files in my Sent folder. When I try to send an e-mail it just spins. What's up?

My Mac Mail program no longer stores any files in my Sent folder. Moreover, the sent folder (off to the left) contains a highlighted "1" as if something is in there.
When I try to send an e-mail message, it simply spins.
This is new behavior for my Laptop of three years. Usually, I have lots of messages in my Sent folder and can easily send e-mail.
I see no discussion forum for "Mail" or for "e-mail" so I raise this question here.
I would appreciate any help anyone might offer.
Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. Turns out, re-started my Macbook later and the problem disappeared. Could this have helped?

I recently updated to Yosemite and now I am having problems with the above mentioned apps, not opening at all.
I am unable to check to which version its update to, or even update to next version.

You ran a defective third-party "utility" such as "CleanMyMac" or "MacCleanse" that purports to "clean up" "junk" files. What it really does is to corrupt the operating system and many applications.
The first thing you need to do is remove that software according to the developer's instructions. Never install it, or anything like it, again. Then see below. If you use any iWork applications, you may need to delete them and redownload them from the App Store.
If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data, then reinstall the OS.* You don't need to erase the startup volume, and you won't need the backup unless something goes wrong. If the system was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you may need the Apple ID and password you used.
If you use FileVault 2, then before running the Installer you must launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the FileVault startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) It will be nested below another icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar and enter your login password when prompted. Then quit Disk Utility to be returned to the main Recovery screen.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
If you installed the Java runtime distributed by Apple and still need it, you'll have to reinstall it. The same goes for Xcode. All other data will be preserved.
*The linked support article refers to OS X 10.10 ("Yosemite"), but the procedure is the same for OS X 10.7 ("Lion") and later.

My 2008 Mac Pro is no longer recognizing memory in the B card. Is it simply a defective card or should I look elsewhere for an answer.

My 2008 Mac Pro is no longer recognizing memory in the B card. Is it simply a defective card or should I look elsewhere for an answer? It was working unntil sometime early this year. Thank you for any enlightenment you can provide.

I'm not sure I understand. You swapped the A and B modules. The B module does not show up in the A modules slot? That would indicate the module is bad. If the A module doesn't show up in the B module's slot, then the slot is bad.

Filling up a pdf form which I received as email. I opened it on my adobe reader 11 and filled up the highlighted fields. Yet when I click on the send via mail it says changes will not be included. How do I send the form with changes?

The add annotations field shows as not allowed in the security options. So how do I send this form back with the changes??

I think you you need to click 'save' first, then it is saved to acrobat, where it will prompt to send.

Apple Mail isn't going to change the format of any of your attachments. it isn't going to corrupt them either.
Exchange is a transport protocol and server. The issue you describe is not related to Exchange.
There are many different versions of Microsoft Outlook in use and they all have e-mail bugs. Different versions have different bugs. Some Apple Mail hack to get around a bug in Outlook 2003 may cause the same message to be problematic in Outlook 2000. Fix them both and another issue will cause trouble in Outlook 2007. You can't fix this. Apple can't fix this. Microsoft can and has but that is irrelevant if your recipients are using older versions.
One specific problem is that Apple Mail always sends image attachments inline, as images, not as iconized files. You can change this with Attachment Tamer. Just be aware that use of this software will break other things such as Stationery. E-mail is just a disaster. To date, no one outside of Apple has ever implemented the e-mail standards from 1993. Apple has continually changed its e-mail software to be more compatible with the de-facto standards that Netscape and Microsoft have unilaterally defined and people documented as "standards" after the fact. The e-mail messages that Apple Mail sends are 100% correct and do not violate any of the original standards from 1993 or the Microsoft/Netscape modifications. The problem is entirely bugs and limitations in various versions of Outlook.

I would like to fill up the following pages. If I fill up the first fields with some letters, they multiplay each other in several other fields, there I don't want them. Can you help me?

You can't change that, and we can't either. It's an error in the creation of the form. ALL of the fields that "auto populate" have the same name and description, so when you fill one, the rest fill by default with the same info. You'll need to contact the author of the form and inform them of the error.

How to edit the dropdown emails list created as you start to fill in the To: field?

When compose a new message, via iCloud (safari browser and win 7 os), and start to fill in the To: field, a dropdown list of Email addresses appears. Some are old email addresses that have been deleted from the iCloud Contacts. How do I clean this up? Thx

Hey Bubu,
Thanks for the quick reply,
open xml SDK ... I don't know what that is but I don't think it has to be so complicated:
IF it is a Document type and NOT a Document Type Set, then I can specify the template to use and even edit it afterwards.
The problem with the Document Type Set is that it won't allow me to make changes to the files I specified when creating the set. I wonder where they are kept and how these docs can be edited.
I don't think i need new software,
And I don't think i need to start writting code to achieve this simplest of tasks.
Can you elaborate a bit what xml SDK is and why I need it? what is Del Content of a document?
Kind regards

Issue with fill in the blank field and back button.

I am working in CP4 AS2. I have create a page of fill in the blank fields to simulate filling in a form. On the next slide, I show the answers by extracting the variables into text boxes. I have a back and a next button and instruct the user to review their answers and if incorrect, to select the back button in order to reenter the data. I have the back button set to jump to the previous slide by number (i've tried previous, last slide, etc...)
The flash movie freezes when I select the back button. I think flash is having trouble going back to the fill in the blank fields from the displayed variables. Any ideas? or work arounds for this. The idea solution would take them back to the page with the data already in the fields so they could correct the errors only and then return to the review page.
Thanks
Scott

Hi there
Is scoring enabled on these? If so, perhaps your quiz settings are preventing backward movement.

"At least one required field was empty on export. Please fill in the required fields (highlighted)"
I'm tearing my hair out with this one. Have checked all the fields to confirm if I had set the Type as User Entered - Required. Can't find any such field. Any help would be appreciated. Is there an email id where I can send the form?

Hi,
In your script when you make an object visible, you also make it mandatory. No problem there!
However the script that hides the object goes through this sequence:
hide the object, THEN
make it optional/not mandatory.
This is where the problem lies.
You FIRST need to make the object optional/not mandatory AND THEN hide the object. It should just be a simple case of work through the various scripts and having the mandatory line before the presence line.
There is an example here: http://assure.ly/hxHupW.
Hope that helps,
Niall

Wrong contacts used by Auto Fill

HT2515 Does iChat work with other users that are on other types of smartphones? or only Mac phones and Mac mail, contacts, etc?

Does iChat work with other users that are on other types of smartphones? or only Mac iPhones and iMac Mail, Contacts, etc?

Hi,
The Messages Beta will Send iMessage to iPhones (Messages replaces iChat)
iChat can SMS to phones
It needs the computer to be listed as if it in the United States and contacting a Phone that is on a Carrier in the United States that is accepting SMS forwarding from AIM
You list the Buddy as AIM and then +plus their number as in +123456789
The computer can be made to "think" it is in the United States in System Preferences > International (or Text a Language in Lion) then Formats tab.
The Phone has to be a US phone with all the trimmings about AIM's SMS forwarding.

OSX 10.5.8 / Mail.app 3.6 - Mail.app No Longer Auto-Checks For New Mail

Since I upgraded to 10.5.8, Mail.app does not appear to be checking automatically for new mail. Regardless of how I set the preference (Every 1 Minute, Every 5 Minutes) it never checks for new mail, and I always have to click on "Get Mail".
I've verified this by opening the Activity WIndow and watching it for more than 5 minutes, with the preference set to 1 and 5 minutes between checks. I don't have time to test the longer intervals right now.
Mail.app is at version 3.6, modified yesterday morning at the same time that I used Software Update to apply the 10.5.8 update (from 10.5.7). I've used Spotlight to make sure that this is the only version of Mail.app on the drive.

Never mind...for the account in question, the "include this account when checking automatically" option was unchecked. Not sure how that happened...

Why is Safari no longer auto-filling in passwords?

Up until this morning, Safari and Keychain were working and would auto-fill in passwords to various websites. I changed no preferences, deleted no keychain items, nor made any changes to the security settings, but now Safari refuses to fill in passwords. I also can't find these passwords in the Keychain Access; if I *change* the password, Safari asks if I would like to change the stored password. If I say 'yes', there is still no password recorded in the Keychain. If I try to make a new account on a website with a new password, Safari pops up with its usual suggested password; if I select it and move forward, I can not find this stored password anywhere (either Keychain or Safari). ***? I should just use 1Pass and Chrome.
The only weird thing that happened was I was trying to select between two different accounts/passwords on a website; it gave the usual beige/yellow selection box for selecting which stored password/acct to use, then it just went away before I could select something. After that, the above behavior started.

Back up all data. Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the Keychain box. You'll be prompted to delete the local iCloud keychain. Confirm—the data will remain on the servers. Then re-check the box. Follow one of the procedures described in this support article to set up iCloud Keychain on an additional device. Test.
