Mac mail rules do not display properly

I use Mac Mail rules to manage my mail, but I am having trouble using them because, many time the "Perform the following actions:" display gets so scrunched together that I cannot see what I've already entered or, if I'm editing a rule, what needs to be changed (see image capture, below).  This does not happen with every rule but it happens on many of them.  It occasionally (but less often) happens with the conditions entries too.
I've had this problem for some time, but it's gotten much worse since I upgraded to Yosemite.
Another problem I'm having with the mail rules is that sometimes the "Stop evaluating rules" option is grayed out and I can't enter it as an action.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

  • Mail merge fields not displaying properly - Dollar signs and percentages

    Hi folks,
    I don't know much about mail merging, so I have a question.  I have most things working on my merge, but need help with a couple of minor items (I hope).  I have an Excel 2010 spreadsheet that we use for merging to a Word 2010 document. 
    It has various fields such as name, address, city, etc.  It also has a field for a dollar amount formatted to two decimal places and showing the $ sign in Excel (ex. $67,000.00), but when it gets merged into the Word document, it displays as 67000. 
    It doesn't pull the $ nor the decimal point and cents.
    I also have the same thing with a percentage (Ex. 6.00%), displays in the Word document as .006. 
    I think I have everything else working, but can't figure out how to format these items in the Word document to display properly.  Any advice?
    Mike

    If you insert the fields
    { MERGEFIELD Total_NB_Premium_away_from_Plan }
    and
    { MERGEFIELD Total_Premium_of_Team_Sales_Target }
    directly in your mail merge main document, outside an IF field, not nested in an { = } field, with no formatting switches, what results do you see?
    Word will only apply a numeric format to things that it decides are numeric (broadly speaking, that includes numeric and currency amounts that it can recognise). It will leave anything else unformatted. So if you have something that looks a bit like a number
    like "$-164,209.00", the chances are that Word will leave it exactly as it is.
    When Word does not recognise something as being a number or a valid numeric expression, it will generally display one error or another when you try to put it in an { = } field. So, e.g. 
    { =$-164,209.00 } would give you the syntax error that you are seeing. (Assuming "$" is set up as the currency symbol in your COntrol Panel's regional options. If the regional currency symbol was £, you would see a different syntax error.)
    The problem in this case probably originates in something that has happened in Excel. Normally, things that are numeric/currency in Excel come through as things that Word treats as numeric. But if for example, someone has entered a number formatted as text
    in a column that has texts rather than numbers above it, Word may receive something that it does not think is numeric. You may have to fix your sheet before Word will "see" the numbers correctly.
    When you have got to the point where WOrd sees the numbers correctly, you should be able to use
    { MERGEFIELD
    Total_NB_Premium_away_from_Plan} \#$,0.00 }
    (and the negative numbering formats if you want) without nesting the { MERGEFIELD } inside an { = }

  • Fonts Will Not Display Properly In Mail

    Messages that I am receving in Mail will not display properly. All characters are represented with square with the letter A. I attached a screen shot.
    I changed the default fonts to many different options and nothing has worked.
    Any help would be great.

    Open up Font Book and validate your fonts.  You may have a corrupt font or corrupt font database.

  • Why is Mail 6.2 not displaying messages from my Exchange account?

    Greetings,
    I have a new 13" MacBook Air running Mountain Lion and I'm noticing that most of the time my Mail inbox is not displaying messages from my work Exchange account; however, it does display messages correctly for my Gmail account.  I've included a screen shot of what I'm experiencing.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Garry

    I have the same problem, as does a coworker. It happens, for instance, if I click on another mailbox (such as Junk) then go back to the inbox. Our company uses Exchange. Quitting mail usually fixes it. A rebuild of the mailbox will too.  Only happens on my Mac at work, not my Mac at home (connected via VPN).
    Another problem I have is with mail not syncing. Mail I have deleted from another device (such as on my Mac at home or my iPad) does not get deleted from my inbox at work. Sometimes they'll go away when I click on them. Other times they won't go away and the only way to delete them is to rebuild the mailbox.
    And lately I have had problems with attachments. Attachments sent from my Exchange account at work show up as .eml attachments in my iCloud account and mime attachments on my iPad or as a string of characters (20-30), not as an attachment. This happens whether sent from home or work.
    I have our IT department looking into the third problem (which is the most vital one for me).  I'll report the other two annoying problems and see what they can figure out.

    You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
    You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.
    *Hold down the Shift key and left-click the Reload button
    *Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
    *Press "Command + Shift + R" (Mac)
    Clear the cache and remove cookies only from websites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"
    "Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Images not displayed properly

    [Migrated from the Syclo Resource Center]
    prashanthi_vangala   01/03/2012 06:44,
    Hi,I am working on Agentry 5.4.0I have a list screen where for one of the columns I have a rule to display images ( I use checked and unchecked images ). Earlier the images were getting displayed properly on the ATE but  it is not working now and I did not make any changes to the image properties then.But after this, I tried couple of things with the image properties to make it work, like when I do not use any mask colour the image does not get displayed but when i use any maks colour the image gets displayed but its completely blacked out ( and thus for checked image, cannot see the check mark and its completely blacked out ).I face same issue with the login image as well. I added a new Image ( Logo ) to my App for the login Screen, but even this image does not appear on the login screen.
    I also tried deleting the Dev folder and re-publishing, but even this does not work.

    Try deleting the Application directory under your development server where the images reside and publish again.
      Completely clear your ATE and transmit again from scratch.
      Also, what mask color are you using?
      Try using a green hugh and not black or white for the mask.

    Hi Jason,Thank you for the reply.I already tried all the  things you have mentioned, but the same issue exits still.
    Prashanthi
    Jason Latko   01/03/2012 12:40
    Is it just the ATE, or do you have the same problems using the WIn32 or PPC clients?
    Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
    prashanthi_vangala   01/04/2012 06:21
    Hi Jason,Behaviour in ATE:I have changed the image now and tested with the new image . Now, its behaving strangely:When I do a sync after publishing or a reset of ATE; I see the new image properly displayed on the screen but when I leave the screen and come back to the same screen again, the new image is getting replaced by the old image ( atleast the old image is not displayed properly, it appears like a black square box..and because of the same issue I had with this image I switched to the new image ). Behaviour in Win32 Client:When I tested with the client, I see  the new image properly for the first time and when i leave the screen and come back the image disappears..This is the behaviour in client.
    Please suggest.
    -Prashanthi
    Jason Latko   01/09/2012 11:35
    Prashanthi,What did you use to create these images?
      They are simple bitmaps I assume?
      Try creating some very simple images using Microsoft Paint, then set a mask of green in Agentry.
      Your problem sounds familiar, but I can't find a matching bug in our database.
      Maybe someone else has experienced this?
      You could also try upgrading to a newer version of Agentry to see if the problem goes away.
      We are currently on version 6.0.4.Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
    prashanthi_vangala   01/11/2012 10:02
    Hi Jason,
    Thank you for the reply.
    But strangely, from past few days I see that the image is working fine again.
    But kept this topic open because it was wierd, that the image is working correctly again without making any major change. What I did was to just write the rule again which calls the image ( though i did this before and did not work then but worked now ) and to observe the image behaviour for few days.But it seems like it is fine now.
    Thanks and Regards,Prashanthi

    I am not thinking this is a Platform Beta 3 uptake issue. And I am suspecting an issue with integration of ilog with ADF. Any help in this regard would be helpful.

  • Ads are not displaying properly in Safari, v 4.0.5

    I am having an odd problem with display ads from our local newspaper not displaying properly on my Mac Pro in Safari. I suspect that the issue might be related to having had some AdBlock app on my system a few months ago. I removed the app and some ads display, but others are just a white block with nothing inside. Is there any way to figure out why the content doesn't load?
    The website is http://www.echopress.com
    The ads I'm having issues with are the 300x250 ads in the right 3rd column, located directly below the weather info and above the "marketplace" ads.
    Any ideas or troubleshooting tips?
    Thanks,
    Grady
    Oh, why do I wanna see em in the first place? I'm an advertiser on the site and would like to see my own ads load occasionally.

    Hey ho, Grady!
    I can see all the ads on the right,
    with the exception of the very top (first) box
    which has the header of "Weather Alerts).
    It's blank, and I'm assuming you have no alerts at the present.
    All the rest of the paid for ads show.
    So, what I would do is clear my Safari cache, history, and
    in Preferences>Security, clear all the cookies from that site.
    Hope this helps.
    If you need more info just holler.
    Let us know how you're doing, OK?

  • Some HTML Emails Do Not Display Properly

    Recently, some HTML emails do not display properly in Mail. All I see is HTML. Yet, 98% of my HTML emails render properly.
    Any thoughts on why this happens with some emails? Is it a Mail issue or are these emails not coded properly?

    Hello Tony.
    Could be a combination but since Mail renders 98% of of all HTML messages properly (using Safari as the engine), this indicates it is a coding problem.
    I'm not a big fan of using HTML with email since it introduces a number of problems. If everyone used Plain Text for message composition, the majority if not all problems experienced with email would be eliminated.

  • Degree symbol not displayed properly in Safari 6

    I don't know whether this is a font/configuration issue or a bug. If I look at a certain web site, the degree symbol is displayed as a black diamond with a white "?" inside it in Safari 6. It displays properly on the same Mac using Chrome. It displays properly on an iPhone and iPad using iOS5.1. So I suspect this is a Safari 6 issue.
    This is not a major problem, just an annoyance. If anyone has an idea for resolution, I'd sure appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    My design view won't display properly in Mozilla or IE. The images show. The CSS (core and flow) are found according to the access logs. But it doesn't display nicely at all. This was an upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6. 1.5 looked fine. My old applications from 1.5 display properly.

  • Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order?  I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add to a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it.

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that use CMAK to configure split tunneling on VPN clients, traffic to specified devices can be routed via their own default gateway.
    If the manually added route entries all have default metric and interface, clients will select one by the default routing rule, can’t select one of them according to clients’ own conditions. So, I am afraid that CMAK can’t implement the function which you need.
    A blog described about How to configure split tunneling on VPN clients using CMAK, for your reference:

  • Contacts not displaying properly in video iPod, need help

    My contacts do not display properly on my video iPod. The phone numbers sometimes have dashes and sometimes do not in the iPod but the phone numbers always have the dashes in my address book on my G4 desktop. Example: iPod 555 555 1212 or 5555551212 or 555-555-1212
    address book 555-555-1212 (always has the dashes)
    I want the Ipod to display the way it looks in the address book, always using the dashes. I am total type A and it drives me crazy when they are not all the same!
    I have iTunes 7 on a MDD G4 running 10.4
    Thanks!

    hi,
    By default Messages should grab info from the Address Card in the Contacts app even if the iCloud option is not checked (and then syncing with other computers and iOS devices that are also set to sync this way).
    However the Contacts App does need to be opened and have the Preferences > Accounts checked to see it is using a Valid Account.
    The Address Cards need to list iMessages and possibly AIM and Jabber ID info as well.
    Next you need to check the View Menu in Messages.
    The Buddy Name option only used to work in Buddy List but now seems to also effect the main Messages window.  (So you can change it here to Handle, which is ID or Screen Name).
    Lower down is the option to display Names, Pictures or Name and Pictures next to people in the Chats.

  • Webfont not displaying properly in design mode or appearing in font list

    Just updated Muse and now my heading webfont (Nunito) is not displaying properly in design mode or appearing in the font list. It is, however, displaying properly in preview mode. When I try and delete the font and then add it again I get an error message that says the font can't be added. Any idea what's going on?

    Please try the steps below. Hopefully this will fix the problem.
    1. Close Muse
    2. Rename the folders named tk1 and tk2 in the following locations
    On Windows: %appdata%\com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.2\Local Store. You can type this in the Path bar at the top of the Windows Explorer window
    On Mac: ~/Library/Preferences/com.adobe.AdobeMuseCC.2014.2/Local Store. You can type this in the Go To Folder dialog (Shift+Command+G)
    3. Launch Muse and add the font again
    Please let me know if that helps.

  • Page does not display properly in 3.0.4

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Best way to reach Apple is to send a Bug Report via the Safari Menu>Report Bugs to Apple. While Apple doesn't respond directly to these notes, the information gets in the hands of Software Engineers at Cupertino.
    Specific to the referenced site, there are multiple code errors, which would contribute to the rendering problem. Safari is a lot more specific about following correct code than other browsers. I suggest passing the Validation report on to the site developers. Good code practices (W3) makes for better uniformity and security on the Internet.

  • Lately pdf files from the Web do not display properly; what is wrong and how can I fix it so I don't have to use IE?

    I am a professor and frequently need to open pdfs of academic journal articles from electronic databases. Within the last two or three weeks, when I try to do this using Firefox, only the first page of the pdf displays and the rest are blank. In addition, a bar appears across the top with the message "This pdf file may not display properly." So I have had to switch to Internet Explorer to open the files and do my research. What is going on and how can I fix it so I can open pdf files from the Web in Firefox and have them display properly?

    My question is simple - why would you put an application in production that has a lot of bugs? To replace a good and steady Adobe product? My customers will believe that I put a pathetic fallible form online. They are not sophisticated on computers so I just tell them to use IE. Ugh
    I must agree with pgwebgirl!
