Mail.app From and Subject are blank in list

From time to time I get an email and once it is deleted, the "From" and "Subject" do not display in the list of emails. Its just blank. The "Date Received" shows up as well as if there were any attachments I get the paperclip icon, but no "From" or "Subject". If I open the email I can see the "From" and "Subject" in the email header just fine so I know the data is there, just doesnt show up in the list of emails. If I move the email back to my inbox and the delete it again it usually fixes the problem. Not a big deal but wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue and has a fix.
I am running Mail.app 3.2, and my emailemail is being routed through google apps setup as imap account.
This also happens on my wife's computer, who has an identical email setup as mine, just a different account, which leads me to believe its a mail.app ->imap ->gmail issue.
Dont get me started on the dreaded "All Mail" folder.

I have tried suffering through changing the message encoding back and forth to get messages to appear, but it has reached a level of absurdity that I just can stand anymore.
I view my mail with IMAP from three places; Mac Pro, MacBook Pro, and iPhone. If I read a message on any one of the platforms, the remaining Mac (not iPhone) do not display the header information in the message list pane. The iPhone always shows everything fine. And if I download the message first on one of the Macs, it looks fine there, but when that message is downloaded on the other Mac (doesn't matter which was first or second, the pro or macbook pro) the from, to, sent, subject are all invisible on the second machine.
I wrote an automator "watch me" recording to toggle message encoding, but with over 2000 affected email messages, it was taking hours to run, and makes that Mac useless until it is done.
I am less than happy with this situation. Why no bulk message encoding change capability? If you select more than one message the encoding options grey-out.
I've tried rebuilding mailboxes. Using the "defaults write ..." on both Macs. Nothing is working.
Surely someone else is seeing this too?

From: Sent: and Subject: are BLANK when replying - Office Outlook 2007

Just started happening today. I'm not sure what caused it and I'm not sure how to fix it.
Nothing has changed on the system (That I am aware of) and there no unusual addons and it happens even when entered in /safe mode.

Hi,
Is this issue reproducible on OWA? This determines if the problem is Outlook specific or related to Exchange.
How about creating a new profile to setup the account? Test if this works fine:

From and subject text is missing in listview (imap)

Hi all,
I have just setup mail 3.0 and all messages+folders are downloaded correct. But messages are missing the From and Subject text in the list view, the place where text normally is written is just blank so I can not see whom the email is from and what it's about.
Once I click on a message it opens up perfectly in the message view and all details are available (from, to, date, etc...). Got damm wired
I'm running with IMAP through a danish host called Azero and I think they are running with Merak Mail Server (http://www.icewarp.com/Products/MerakEmail_ServerSoftware/)
I hope somebody can help me.
Cheers,
Jesper

so this is strange... i tried the exact same process on 3 machines with the same mail account set up. on the first machine, i selected the mailbox, went to Mailbox>Rebuild. Mailbox rebuilt without any issues, all old mail that was missing From/Subject fields were fixed and all new mail comes through without any issues.
I tried the same thing on two other machines with Merak IMAP accounts on them and on one machine, ALL previous mail that had been correctly displaying From/Subject fields had those fields deleted but date received displayed just fine. I could also click on the blank line and the message would display correctly in the Mail window's preview pane below the list view.
On the third and final machine, rebuilding the mailbox wiped the mailbox COMPLETELY. Folders displayed but they were empty.
I'm submitting a support ticket to Merak as soon as I'm done typing this

TS1702 On my iPad 2 the mail app opens and the page icons are there but no mail. I can access my mail in other ways so I know mail is being received.

On my iPad2 the mail app opens and the page icons are there but no messages are shown. I know mail is being sent as I can access it in other ways plus the envelope icon on my homepage continues to show the number of messages received.
I have rebooted twice now but cannot think of anything else to do
Help please

Go to Settings>Mail the account and turn the account off and then back on
Next delete the account from the iPad and reenter the settings.

Mail app displays No Subject, No Sender and No content in All Inboxes

On my iPad 2 in the mail app, when looking at mail in All Inboxes my iCloud emails display with No Sender, No Subject, and No Content. If I tap on it there is "nothing to display". If I go to the iCloud inbox everything displays fine. I have multiple inboxes which include an exchange, gmail and xfinity accounts. The emails from these accounts all display fine in the All Inbox view. The Exchange is my primary work account and the iCloud is my primary home accoun tso viewing both is convenient.
So far I have tried powering the iPad off and on. Shut the iCloud mail off and back on. Neither has worked. All messages display fine on my iPhone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks...Lenny

Quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or ....
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

Photoshop Elements 9 prints and Previews are blank

Recently installed Elements (not the trial, the paid version) on a new MacBook Pro, and it not only won't print, the Print Preview is blank. Wondering if it was the document, so I created a new document with Elements, painted a few strokes, and tried printing again. Same result. The Print Preview is blank. The thumbnail of the image DOES show up in the Print dialog box. I re-installed the software. I deleted and re-installed the printer. I restarted the computer. All other apps are able to print, and Preview app is able to print the same documents that Elements will not print. I've been doing IT for years, and I've never seen anything like this. Any suggestions?

I may have just found a solution. In the print dialog box, under more options, colour management...if i leave the Colour Handling to Photoshop and change Printer Profile to Apple RGB or to my Printer colour profile then I could print. However, colour is off although it looked nice in print preview. So, instead I downloaded ICC Colour Profile for Mac from adobe and change back the Printer Profile to Adobe RGB(1998) which is same as above Image Space profile.
And I am quite satisfied with the print output.

Yes, sorry for the confusion. Normally i go to the web link to post message but it didn't work this time, so i replied directly from email and that seem to be ok.
Anyway, my printer is Canon MG5240. After reading your thread, I installed updated driver from Apple (printer driver for Mac) and when still cannot print, I called a canon rep here and asked about it and he said to go into canon website only. So I loaded driver from Canon website which also didn't seem to change anything. When I was using Elements 9 trial version i did not have problem printing from the software.

How to stop mail app from embedding photos

How do I get the Mail App from embedding my photo attachments. I'm using Yahoo that was just migrated from a PC through Migration assistant

Thanks Linc, it took me a bit to figure out that within this link was a way to close the message viewer, which I've done for now.
I would still be interested to know if there is a way for the message viewer panel to be open and have mail NOT open the next message automatically. I do like to have the message panal open. But I am not sure why the default is to jump to the next message, or why we cannot have it sit at the last messge and allow us to choose when we are ready to read the next message.
For now, the link you sent does give me an option.
Thank you!

Report using colmns from 2 subject areas

Hi,
I have to buld a report as below
Product      ForecastRevenue(A)       ActualRevenue(B)       Variance
A                200                                      100                           100
B                200                                      200                            0
ForecastRevenue(A) comes from 1 subject area and ActualRevenue(B) comes from another subject area. Using these 2 columns from different subject area I have to create
a calculated column variance which is the difference of two columns. How can I create this report. Any idea?

can be done in two ways;
1. Using Union report
Create a union report with two request.
Request1 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression     "product.name"     "Fact.Revenue"         0
Request2 -          product               Forecast_Revenue     Actual Revenue
Col expression      "product.name"    0                             "Fact.ACTUAL_Revenue"
In the result tab create a pivote report and set the aggregation of fact column as sum.
Add a calculated column and write the expression as
Farecast_Revenue - Actual_Revenue
You are done.
2. Use the advance tab in the report and write a custom SQL to join these two subject area.
eg.
select product, A.forecast_reveneu, B.Forecast_Reveneue, A.forecast_reveneu-B.Forecast_Reveneue
from SA1 A join SA2 B on (A.product=B.PRODUCT)
You are done.
Best of Luck,

Report from multiple subject areas

Hi,
I need to create a report from multiple subject areas. I am not sure whether it;s possible in OBIEE answers.
Is there any other tool from OBIEE suite where I can design it?
Thanks

Yes, i can see datatype and number of columns is same in both queries.
i have challanges to copy message but Error message seems to general. Error says (near to FROM) and I checked there are three FROM in query and all seems to be ok
Query is something like as below
select SA1.col1 saw_0,
SA1.col2 saw_1,
SA2.col1 saw_2,
SA2.col2 saw_3,
FROM
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area1") SA1
FULL OUTER JOIN
(select col1 saw_0, col2 saw_1 from "subject area2") SA2
ON SA1.col1 = SA2.col1
I can't see any issue in the query...please comment.

How add new column in analysis from two subject area

which is the right way to add a new column to an existing combined analysis from two subject areas?
if I add the new column first in my two combined queries, then I saw a new column in the results column panel, but this new column is empty and I can't edit its propreties (the button edit column doesn't work). I can't even save the modified analysis due to a "bad xml" errror.
if I try to first add a new column from the results panel and then in my combined queries, obiee says that new columns are not of the same type.
I suppose this is because the new column in results panel has no aggregation formula, unlike new columns in queries.
But I don't know how to change the properties of the new field in the results panel, with no subject area available.
I have to restart from a single subject area? possible?
In this case, there is a way to save/copy filters ecc. from the old analysis?
If anyone can help.
Thanks
Luc

When you are using union clause in analysis or combining with other subject area you suppose to have same number of columns and their datatypes with other analysis.
for datatype issues you can use cast in column expression in each analysis. If you want to add a column only from 1 analysis just add and in other analysis use dummy column with exp 0 or ''(for char) based on the datatype.
These you have to deal with each analysis.

Why is incoming mail on EST and we are on CDT?

Why is incoming mail on EST and we are on CDT?

This likely is down to what timezone you are in, what timezone your mail server is in, and what timezone the sender and senders mail server are in. Each email has various head lines in it which define the time it is sent, and the time it passes through each mail server involved. (Usually but not always this maybe just two servers.)
Here are a few lines extracted from an email I received from Google.
X-Received: by 10.236.38.225 with SMTP id a61mr10779664yhb.44.1414751119031;
Fri, 31 Oct 2014 03:25:19 -0700 (PDT)
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Date: Fri, 31 Oct 2014 10:25:19 +0000
The bottom line is the line from my own mail server, but the other line is the line from Google's mail server. I at the time this email was processed was in the UK in GMT - it was before we switched to BST (British Summer Time), therefore the offset from GMT was zero hours, hence the +0000. Now that we have switched to BST the offset is +0100 i.e. one hour. As Google are in the USA their servers are seven hours behind GMT and hence the -0700 figure.
If you have outsourced your email to a company who has the servers located in a different country to yourself this maybe the explanation.

Consistency check error 38011: Logical tables from multiple subject areas..

I received multiple 38011 errors when performing a consistency check after merging repositories:
For example:
Logical tables from multiple subject areas associated, OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse
(OHRP and Enterprise Warehouse refer to different business models)
I'm really not sure what this means, and Metalink and Google aren't turning up anything.
Thoughts?
-John

John,
Does it say anything about Assertion Failure? Also, this is straight up from help regarding import (through file menu) "Use this option when the objects you import are unrelated to objects already in the repository such as when the business model and physical layer objects do not exist. If an object of the same name and type exists, the import process overwrites the existing object with the new object. When you import objects from one repository into another, the repository from which you are importing must be consistent."
Sometimes Merge does bring unexpected (and unwanted results) - especially if there're presentation aliases, duplicate business models, or naming conflicts. If it's not too late, I suggest you use Import,rather than Merge, also, preferably starting with a new RPD file. This would enable you to bring items piece-by-piece and hopefully would allow you to isolate the problem.
Also, depending on the size - it's sometimes preferable to just reproduce missing part(s). I hope this is helpful.
Also, I forgot to say - the Import is deprecated and not supported. They suggest you use Project Extract and Merge. If Merge isn't working out for you and Import isn't an option - maybe you could try Project.
