Mail automatically opens a new compose window after sending mail

Just recently, my Mail program has started opening a new compose window after I send an email. It's accompanied by the "you did something wrong" tone that my computer makes if you (for instance) hit some incorrect combination of keys. I've tried to fix this in preferences, but I don't see any item that controls this. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, as this is a waste of time to have to cancel out of the unwanted new compose message, and confirm that, indeed, I want to cancel and not save it.
Thanks!

Is Outbox visible in the mailbox list? If so, get rid of any stray messages that may be there.

  • When I atempt to send a web site via an email from FF, the system keeps opening one new mozalla screen after another. Nothing will stop this but logging off. I have to bookmark everything and then put it in an email. Your help is appreciated.

    If I attempt to send a link to someone from a site I am visiting, ff starts opening one new start window after another. So fast i can't get it stopped. Even going into taskmaster which I sometimes have to try 3 or 4 times, it is impossible to get them all stopped they just keep multiplying. Only logging off or a restart will fix the problem.
    The same think happens if I use a "send picture to". I don't know what else to do. I have run all the diagnostics I have. Checked all the drives, etc. Check all the ff settings. Nothing shows.

  • Can i retain my app tabs & tab groups in new firefox window after i close one ??

    Just upgraded to Firefox 5 and used the awesome features of app tabs and tab groups, but ah ! i closed my browser and when i opened it again, everything was lost. :(
    How can i retain my app tabs and tab groups when i open a new browser window after closing the one in which these were created ?
    Will be a great help if we can do it.

    Thx for your answer.
    But when I select the option to empty everything when I close Firefox I can chose what is deleted
    - Cookies
    - Download history
    - Cache
    etc...
    There should be an option for pinned tabs. Especially because this tabs are not simple tabs but tabs you want to keep.
    The only solution I have found so far is to keep emptying everything and to ask to Firefox to start a folder of bookmarks as my homepage (homepage <=> several URLs separated with | )
    But it opens wide tabs and not small pinned ones :/
    We should have the option !

  • Today I think firefox automatically installed a new version and after that it said my adobe flash was old so I had to update that. Now I can't open links in a new window.

    Firefox doesn't install new versions of plugins, but Flash may update itself automatically.<br />
    You are still one version behind on Flash, current is Flash 10.1 r85<br />
    If the Flash player didn't update properly then you need to download the full version and run the installer as Administrator (right-click: Run as ...)

    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == always

    Thank you, "the-edmeister" -- You render a great service, one that lifts my spirits.
    Your answer also taught me to be a little more persistent, as I had started looking at Preferences, and just didn't notice the icons (including Applications) at the top of that window that would have led me to my answer.

  • Opening new navigator window after clicking to "commandLink"

    You can use onmouseup an onkeyup events to open the new window in javascript.

  • I work on two screens. With the new updates, my computer will not automatically open a new window on the second screen.

    I work on two screens. With the new updates we cannot automatically open a new window on the second screen, but have to move them over manually. Not a huge problem, but because of the nature of the work, it gets tedious.

    Hi Annowriter,
    Thank you for your question, I understand that it is annoying to have to move a new window to the second screen. Since it opens in the active screen this may have been a stored preference, however it is not the default.
    There is an add on called [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/monitor-master/ Monitor Master] that customizes settings like this. Check it out.

  • HT5361 i can't resize the new message window in mac mail.

    I have OS X 10.9.1 and a MacBook Air.
    When i open a new message window to type an email. It opens up as big as full screen or bigger. When I try to resize the window it won't allow me to make it any smaller.
    Can anyone help?

    Another quick follow-up. I have several email accounts set up within Mail and have the "Bcc" field set up so I automatically get a copy of my emails in the account from which I send the message. Setting the "Bcc" to one of my accounts triggers a jump to a large message viewer window  that won't resize. Then deleting that "Bcc" listing from the message doesn't fix the problem. I have to go back to a copy of the message I've sent to myself and again click the forward icon to get a window I can resize. This problem doesn't seem to occur if I paste the offending  account into the "To" field of he message, only the "Bcc' field. Go figure!

  • I close Firefox session and then try to open a new browser window - get message that Firefox is still running and I need to shut down and restart. Need a solution

    I close a Firefox browser and at a later time want to open a new browser window but get message "Firefox is still running and I need to shut down before I can open a new session" I do not want to shut down as this is laborious - I can go into task manager and processes and click on Firefox and end session that way but this is not the solution. Firefox seems to be running in background but I cannot open a new session window without doing on of the above.

    Have a look at this post, see if it is of any help (though related to Vista, but same issue can be there with Window 7 also)

  • Unable to Open a New Browser Window

    I have a couple users who are having trouble logging in to Discoverer on new PCs. They are using Internet Explorerer 8. They are able to get to the login screen, but when the hit connect (or Go) they get an error: "Unable to open a new browser window. Ensure that you do not have popup windows disabled for this site."
    Obviously the first thing I had them do was turn off the popup blocker all together. But they still get the error (even after they restart their PC). Other than that, is there something I am missing in how they need to configure IE8? I'm personally used to using IE6 at work and don't know much about configuration setting for IE8.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Exactly not sure,see if there are any pop-up blockers still exists,if so try turning pop-up on and off and check it.One more thing what java plug in are you using?? May be it perisists due to java also.
    Best Wishes,

  • Every time I open a new Firefox window a dowload dialog box opens

    Every time I open a new Firefox window, a download dialog box opens with the last youtube .flv file that I converted to an mp3 from www.flv2mp3.com and the box offers the options to open it or save it. I have to click cancel it every time (or try opening it or saving it) to make it to go away. If I open a new tab or new window while I still have the original window open, it doesn't do it. Is this a glitch in Download Helper or did I get a never ending script from flv.com, or what?

    You can check the target line in the Firefox desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties) to make sure that nothing is appended after the path to the Firefox program.
    Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.

  • I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the defaul for opening a project?

    I'm using Premiere Elements 11, which automatically opens in a project window for HD. I want to reset the default for SD. How can I reset the default for opening a project?

    scottypet
    For Premiere Elements 11 and 12, you cannot change its default project preset from NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 or its PAL counterpart PAL AVCHD Full HD1080i25 to something else.
    For each project, you can set the project preset manually if you do not want the program to take over setting the project preset based
    on the properties of the first drag to the Timeline.
    To set the project preset manually, open the project to the Expert workspace, go to File Menu/New/Project and Change Settings.
    In the Change Settings area, change the project preset. Before you exit that area, be sure to have a check mark next to "Force Selected Project Setting on This Project" in the new project dialog.
    Then you import your source media, using the appropriate Add Media choice.
    ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE11: Accuracy of Automatic Project Preset (New Project Dialog) Setting
    If you want a version of Premiere Elements that uses the default project preset of NTSC DV Standard or its PAL counterpart PAL DV Standard, then you need to look to a version of Premiere Elements earlier than 11.
    Please let me know if you have any further questions on this or need clarification.
    Thank you.

  • How can I save my customised toolbar so it is there every time I open a new browser window

    I have created a customised toolbar with all the icons I want but have to do it again every time I open a new browser window.

    i found i had almost exactly the same problem as you. one evening my itunes just wouldn't start up, it told me that 'itunes is unable to open because some of it's required files are missing, please re-install itunes'. now, i personally know a lot on the subject of computers and how they opperate, i had the built the computer that i encoutered the problem on myself. as soon as i came across the problem, i immediatly thought that i would be able to simply uninstall itunes and quicktime, and then re-install.
    after doing this, nothing changed, i went straight to 'add or remove programs' in windows, and tried to remove itunes from there. it wouldn't uninstall. i racked my brains over the problem, until i found this article, which provided a great deal of help. for anyone who later has this problem, go and download this freeware from microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;290301 this program will immediatly remove any unwanted programs with ease, whether they are running or not. after using this program to uninstall itunes, re-install, and your problem should be solved.
    thanks. Alex Dove

    There are some keyboard commands (shortcuts) you can use instead of having to go to the Apple menu -
    Control-Eject          This brings up the Restart-Sleep-Cancel-Shutdown window.
    Command-Option-Eject          This puts the machine to sleep.
    Command-Control-Eject          This closes all apps and restarts the machine.

  • How to open a new browser window without toolbar, location, and menu bars from AIR?

    I have the following problem in my Flex+AIR application. I need to embed an ActiveX component that has JavaScript API inside my application. I tried to embed it inside <mx:HTML> component but unfortunately, AIR doesnot support plug-ins or ActiveX controls. So I've decided to open it in a new browser window. I tried navigateToURL(...) method but it has two problems - it is opening a new tab in the existing browser window and there is no way for me to configure the new browser window appearance, like removing toolbar, menu bar, location bar, etc. Then I tried to open a new window from JavaScript running inside <mx:HTML> component using window.open(...) API but it doesn't open a new window at all.
    Is there any way for me to open a new browser window without toolbar, location bar, etc. (which will run ActiveX control, so it cannot be AIR window) from inside AIR?
    Best regards,
    Arkady.
