Mail doesn't display properly in outlook

hello
when i send mail using mail.app, it seems to be doing odd stuff without me realising - i need to use rich text so i can use colors, but when it's received by outlook users, the font changes half way through, and little square blocks appear which i can't see on my screen. this is obviously related to that fact that i copied and pasted into my email, but how do i make it appear at their end the same as on mine?
it seems to be that outlook's a bit weird - but how do i be as weird as outlook?
i have the same trouble whereby sometimes, when someone sends me something with special characters in, when i reply or its quoted, the special characters (eg, é) changes to +AOk or something silly like that. how do i stop that?

This can sometimes occur if you are using a font that is not available on the windows machine. It will substitute with it's default font if it cannot find the corect one.
Try a test using a basic font like Arial or Times New Roman and see if you get the same result. IF all looks good, then you've fixed the problem. If it's still mucked up??? Well the you got me, I'm stumped.

  • Mail doesn't display full email text, only displays the subject line

    Mail doesn't display full email text, only displays the subject line.
    My preview shows first three lines of email, but when I chose the email specifically mail doesn't display any lines of text.  Been this way for about ten days.  Please help.  Ben

    Awesome.  Rebooting the phone worked.  I had never turned the phone off before (for the next guy - you hold down the "sleep" button for longer than you'd think and that'll do a full shutdown).  thank you for your help.

  • Since updating to Mavericks, Mail doesn't work properly.  It just stops working (no error messages--it just won't check for new mail) and I must shut it down and reopen it to get it working again.  Any suggestions?

    Try to force quit the mail app
    Double tap the home button. When you see the app previews on the screen scroll sideways if needed to get the preview in question on the screen. Flick that preview up and off the screen to close the app. Single tap the home button or home screen preview to exit the mode.
    Failing that, go into the settings, mail, contacts and calendars and remove your account info then put it back in and see if that works

    After upgrade to OS X10.6.7 Mail doesn't display pix.  Missing plug-in instead. Already reset Java to default.
    Did not find any other suggestion online.
    What's happening?

    Hi
    Is it not displaying any type of picture attachment (JPG, GIF, TIFF, PNG)? Is it any message that you view, from any sender?
    How did you reset Java? You may want to clear the caches as well. Empty ~/Library/Caches & /Library/Caches/.

  • Mail doesn't sync properly with my university IMAP mail account after installing LION... help!

    Mail doesn't sync properly with my university IMAP mail account after installing LION... worked great before with snow leopard.
    when i try to configer the "incoming mail server" section, I fill everything out correctly and yet I get this message:
    "can't verify the identity of imap.'myuniversityname'.ca"
    there is some text explaining it after. If i press continue anyway, no new messages are transfered from my university server to mail on my mac.
    I am running a 2010 13" macbookpro
    thanks for any help!

    Try one of these other free email clients:

  • Mail doesn't display my html

    I'm tearing my hair out over this. Solve this for me and I'll love you forever! :-)
    I have a shell script running on a Linux machine to generate multipart mail messages. These display perfectly in Thunderbird (PC or Mac) but the html is missing when I open them in Mac mail. Switch to plain text and they look fine, but the html just doesn't display.
    I've tried Snow Leopard and Lion with the same result.
    Anyone come across this problem? Anyone any ideas?

    Thank you Austin, that was exactly the problem: the overall (multipart/mixed) boundary was properly terminated, but the others weren't.
    I must have looked at that a hundred times and not seen it. I've corrected that and now it's working.
    I guess thunderbird is just more tolerant of format deviation than Mac Mail!

  • Lumia 610 doesn't display notification for Outlook...

    Hello, My Lumia 610 doesn't display notification (unread messages) for outlook when the screen is locked. However it does display the notification such as missed calls, text messages, face book messages, Gmails, Yahoo emails, Windows live emails. But nothing for Outlook. Can some one please help. Regards, Hussain

    WIndows Phone 7.5 has a total of four positions where notifications can be shown on the lockscreen. If these are used further notifications are not shows. You can resolve this by clearing the existing notifications or link your inboxes which will result in the use of a single notification for new mail messages in any of the linked inboxes. You can find more information o this using this link.

  • E61i internet browser doesn't display properly

    Hello,
    I never had any problems browsing the internet on my E61i. My Nokia is always switched on, but today I had to switch it off for a while. After switching in on again, I wanted to use the internet on it. The strange thing was that it wouldn't display any web page properly any more. Pages look messy, like the web browser doesn't how to handle HTML etc. and display it properly.
    I often visit web pages not specially made for PDA's, so when visiting these I had to scroll horizontally. That was ok. But now when visiting these pages I cannot scroll horizontally any more; the browser puts all web page contents beneath each other, if you know what I mean. Now I can only scroll vertically.
    The conclusion is that many web pages I used to visit have now become useless since the E61i web browser doesn't display them any more as they used to be displayed, the pages used to look like as if you visited them from a PC, but not any more.
    Does anybody have a clue?

    It sounds like a cache issue. When you view the page, that
    page is loaded into your (or your client's) browser's cache memory.
    This is done so that when you return to that page it will load
    faster (since it is already loaded into memory).
    This will only happen if a person has been to the page
    recently. There is a limit on the amount of information your
    browser will store in cache memory. The more you surf, the more
    likely it is that the page will be replaced in the cache memory
    with some other information.
    You (and your client) can, depending on what browser you are
    using, set your preferences so that all web pages will be
    completely reloaded every time you visit them. In IE 6 for Win:
    Tools>Internet Options>Settings> Select 'Every visit to
    the page'. You can also set your cache to be the minimum amount of
    space alotted. Note: This doesn't really work very well in IE 6 for
    WIN. I use firefox for reviewing changes because I have found IE 6
    is completely unreliable for viewing the latest.
    Most other browsers will allow you to hold down Shift and hit
    'refresh' to throw out the cache for that page and view the latest.
    As far as I know this is standard operating procedure for proofing
    new pages.
    If there is a coding technique to force a browser to use only
    the latest information, I don't know what it is.
    Good luck.

  • Transferred mail doesn't display "most recent" messages in iOS3

    I just setup a brand new Mac OS X Snow Leopard Server and began transferring mail from offline mailboxes to the IMAP structure on the server. This works fine in Apple Mail, as it displays the entire message list and keeps a local cache. However, this does not work properly on my iPad, iPhone or those same iDevices belonging to my colleagues.
    Instead, it displays a seemingly "random" list of 200 messages rather than the "most recent" messages.
    An extensive search of Apple Discussions yielded three very similar cases, all seeming to involve the transfer of mail from one server to another with similar results (errors).

    Has this been solved? Can someone offer me/us some help?
    FTR:
    I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard (10.6.4), the server is also up-to-date and the iPhones/iPads are as well (3.1.3 and 3.2 respectively).
    Thank you,

  • Externally loaded swf in second window doesn't display properly?

    I have a bitmap based flash game (bitmapdata generated screen) that I'm trying to load in to a secondary nativewindow generated from a main flash (not AJAX/HTML)  based AIR app that's a graphical menu.  I.E. you click on a selection in the menu, and it pops open a secondary nativewindow with the flash game running in it.  The problem is, the game itself gets mangled in the secondary window when it loads in.  Keyboard input goes away, the bitmap doesn't draw properly (it streaks like its not drawing the background image each frame), most of the game objects its supposed to draw in to the bitmap are missing, etc. 
    When I make the game itself in to its own AIR app and run it direct, it works just fine.  So I'm puzzled.  Is there some kind of special coding considerations in the as3 side that I'm missing with the original game?  I.E. if a flash based AIR app launches another nativewindow and loads a swf in to that, does it share some kind of variable set, display list, etc. with the calling window?  Something else?  Any help would be appreciated.

    There are a few differences between (A.) letting the AIR runtime load content into the initial window and (B.) loading content into a new NativeWindow.
    1. In case A, the stage property is available in the class constructor for the main sprite. In case B, this is not the case. You may have to use an ADDED_TO_STAGE event handler to do some class initialization.
    2. In case A, the initial scale is based on the metadata present in the SWF -- this results in the behavior you would expect. In case B, there is no SWF to base the scale on when the window is created, so a default scale is used -- this is rarely results in behavior you would expect (unless the window happens to be created with a size of 72x72 pixels).
    If you aren't setting the stage to noScale, then this could account for some of the visual issues. (See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/launching_windows.html for an explanation of the scaling issues.) The easiest thing to do is to set the Stage scaleMode to noScale and the align property to the top left setting. I'm guessing your drawing code isn't expecting the scaling so things are getting put in the wrong place.
    3. In case A, the content is automatically put in the application sandbox. In case B, it depends on the URL.
    As for the Keyboard input, this may depend on how you are loading the SWF and from where. This could be related to #3 above, although I would expect to see security errors. How are you adding your keyboard event handlers?

  • Navigator Window Doesn't display properly

    Hello,
    Suddenly the Navigator Window on the Left of JDeveloper doesn't show properly.Usually the window has 2 subwindows : the top which displays WorkSPace-Projects-classes and bottom which shows the members and methods for each class. Now my top window doesn't show at all. It is like it has been minimized and i cannot restore it. The bottom window occupies all the space.
    When i place the cursor on top of the upper border of the bottom window (just under the green X icon) the cursor changes to a shape that shows that there is another window there but i cannot drag the border down and display again the top navigator window.
    What can i do about that ? ?

    I have seen this problem before but I have not been able to reproduce it.
    The workaround is to:
    - Open the 'Welcome' workspace (Help|Welcome Workspace)
    - Close JDeveloper
    - Launch JDeveloper
    - Open your workspace
    Hope this helps.
    Please let us know if you are still running into problems.
    Regards,
    Arun

  • SimpleChat doesn't display properly for spark on mobile

    I'm using the latest LCCS Spark Beta version. The SimpleChat displays RAW html instead of the styled text, plus it doesn't scroll properly. This problem was posted a few months back but is yet to be resolved. Looking at the LCCS sdk source code, the problem seems obvious: SimpleChat uses the class RichTextArea which the lccs team has created. That class checks to see if "textFlow" exists. If it doesn't as in the case of mobile it just assigns the raw html to the text field which is obviously unacceptable since the user will end up seeing raw html instead of styled text. Below is the problematic code in the lccs RichTextArea class. Is LCCS team supporting mobile devices?
                   if (textFlow)
                        textFlow = TextConverter.importToFlow(str, TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT);
                    else  {
                        //StyleableTextField(textDisplay).htmlText = str;
                        textDisplay.text = str;
