Mail doesn't show previews of messages anymore

After update the preview of my emails in Mail are missing. Any ideas...

Hi maui888,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the exact nature of the issue you are describing. If you mean that you are not seeing the first couple of lines of the email in the message list, you may want to check the "List Preview" setting in the Viewing preferences, as noted in the following article:

Mail doesn' t show preview of jpeg's

I have noticed that Apple Mail doesn't always show a preview of pictures (gif's and jpeg's) in the preview window. Sometimes it shows a picture and sometimes there is only a "?" in a frame and I have to double click on the attached icon to see it... Does anybody know why?

Mail doesn't show newest messages

I have a gmail IMAP account set up, but it doesn't show my newest messages. New ones that come in after I have set up the account show up at the top, but the newest ones before those are from march.

Why Mail doesn't show content of emails?

Since some days Apple Mail doesn't show always the content of an e-mail message. In the window at the right hand of the columns with folders and incoming mail and in the fullscreen mode only the headers (To, From, Subject) are visible, not the content (text, images, attachments). If there is an attachment, I can see that by clicking 'show in Quicklook'.
The problem started a couple of days ago. And sometimes Mail shows the content after receiving an e-mail, immediately after a first view no more.
Rebuilding the mailbox doesn't change this.
Thanks for your suggestions to solve this problem.

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click the text on the line below to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData/Envelope Index
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A Finder window will open with a file selected. Move the selected file to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have names that begin with "Envelope Index". Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is corrupt and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the file you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

BUG! lightroom 3.4.1 Adjustment Brush Doesn't Show It's "Button" Anymore

Adjustment Brush Doesn't Show It's "Button" Anymore:
I installed the update for 3.4.1 and warm re-booted my computer.
The button that you saw after painting (releasing the mouse button), is no longer there.
There is nothing to hover over to see what area you painted and if you Close the brush, and reopen it, the button does not appear.
HALP!

Disregard my second message about not understanding your email reply.
I thought I had to hit "H" to see a link -on the email- to confirm my registration.
I didn't realize it was your answer.
Since I had just installed my 3.4.1 update and the default on my installed version of LR, and since my 'pins' have never been hidden, the 3.4.1 default of hiding the pins was a problem and is likely to fool a lot of users that hadn't read about hiding those pins yet. Shouldn't the installation of -any- new version, pick up the defaults currently in LR? That is an issue.
We're good now.
Thanks for the response.

Bridge doesn´t show preview of tif-images

Hi,
I uses Bridge CS6 on a Mac with MacOS 10.9.2. Suddenly bridge doesn´t show previews of Tif-images. It´s also impossible to fill in any metadata. The program also says that the image isn´t tagged with any color profile. I don´t have these problems with jpegs, only with Tif-images. I even get previews on the RAW-images. Does anyone know what the problem can be?
Ulf

I guess I have to try to reinstall the program.......
I'm 99,99 % sure that won't help solving your problem because to possible being effective you also should use the Adobe Clean tool to get rid of a lot of the hidden files that just stay put during a normal reinstall. But if you want to do something easier instead of reinstall, quit Bridge and go to the user library (by default hidden per OSX 7, use Finder, menu Go with option to reveal this library)
In the preferences folder is plist file for Bridge (com.adobe.bridge5.plist), drag this file to the trash. Then in same library go to the folder Caches / Adobe/ Bridge CS5 and inhere delete both plug in and folder called Cache. (this means recaching the previews and thumbs).
Then restart Bridge holding down option key and again choose 'reset prefs'. All previous deleted items will be replaced with new, fresh and empty ones and you have an almost like factory settings Bridge without the need of reinstall.
But I really suspect it comes down to the Tiff files so maybe also a reset of preferences in PS might be worth a try.

If Photoshop crashes the should be a System crash report generated by your OS. For example Windows

[solved] Nautilus on Gnome doesn't show preview img of any video file

Nautilus on Gnome 2.24 doesn't show preview image of any video file. Images are normal. Somebody have this issue too?

Nautilus uses Totem and Gstreamer codecs to show video thumbs. Maybe a reinstall would solve the problem. Actually, I have no idea other then this.

My mail inbox is showing Load More Messages - 5 messages total - 5 unread

My mail inbox is showing Load More Messages - 5 messages total - 5 unread. When I select Load More Messages it starts to do something then stops. I do not seem to be able to access these unread messages. Can anyone help me with this annoying problem?

This is my basic, first start, recommended "fix" when these types of weird, unexplained things occur on the iPad. Give it a try. After you reboot, go back to the mail app and see if the messages will load.
Quit the mail app completely and reboot the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Mail doesn't show new messages

Mail sometimes doesn't show new messages for an IMAP account. The badge in the dock says that there is a new mail but it doesn't show up in the inbox. I'm sure that I didn't just miss it, because, smart mailboxes will not find that new mail as well. When I restart mail, the mail finally shows up in the inbox as well.
Anybody else seeing this and what can I do to resolve that issue?
Thanks!

I'll bring everyone up to speed on what's been happening with my family accounts. I first suspected Safari, because it seemed to be a local problem, but then, inexplicably, all mobileme mail accounts tied to that family account, which included 4 subaccounts and 1 mail-only account, not only did not work in mail.app, but also failed in other email clients I tested, including clients on Linux. Also, the webmail version was not working well, either.
So, if your problem is isolated to a single computer and just to mail.app, or just with a particular network, then I think the local troubleshooting steps are the way to go.
But, if your problem extends to other platforms, clients, and webmail, then it is likely an issue the engineers at Apple will have to figure out. I found the online chat service for mobileme users to be very helpful in checking through all the 'usual suspects' and after we had pretty much ruled out any of the usual culprits, it was escalated to the engineers, who are working on it now.
They were able to release all the email that had been piling up, but there are still some glitches they are trying to iron out. As an aside, I have been personally managing various mail servers for a dozen years, and am well aware of the difficulties in diagnosing email problems, and it was stumping me, and I have intimate knowledge of Exim and Exchange and various email modules used with mx services.
+While this 'should never happen', it's unrealistic for users to expect it never will. Of all the services provided on the Internet, email, is arguably the most complex service and it's become much more complex in the past few years. In my work, typically 94% of all email traffic hitting the server is filtered out as spam. So, the 6% that is allowed through is the stuff most of us see and are spending time and resources filtering out the 20-40% additional unwanted spam that the host let through because if they tightened it down any further the risk of false positives would become too great. I spend way more time on the mail service aspects of my job than the web services, and mail problems occupy at least 80% of my troubleshooting logs. So, while email seems more 'simple' than the exotic and bandwidth intensive services like video chat, voip, and web2 transactions, compared to the amount of wasted bandwidth and cpu cycles filtering packets, I think email is the number one problem service for most host providers. We tried to depend upon it for mission-critical communications, and it was never designed for that initially, and the spammers are making certain it won't achieve that status at least in the near future. If anything, email is your least dependable Internet service. Combine this with the growing array of user configurations, email clients, forwarding/retrieving/syncing scenarios, and user experience, and you may find yourself uttering a little prayer now and then for the poor email administrators and support personnel.+
[end of sermon - thanx for letting me get that off my chest; I feel better now! I'll feel a lot better when my email is flowing smoothly, but that's out of my hands for now.]

TS3276 I have two email accounts set up on Mail. One shows the unread messages and the other one doesn't... how can I get it to show both account's unread messages?

I have two email accounts set up on my Mail application. Both pull in and send just fine but ever since I upgrade the exchange sever and re-setup the account It won't show the unread (number) to the right of the inbox? The other one shows up just fine. Any clues would be great! Thank you.

Mac mail doesn't show messages

Something happened to my email account settings, couldn't send messages. After trying to fix it, couldn't get messages either. Created new account settings. Now I'm getting my mail list, but any preview or opening of the email comes up blank.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
If 10.7.0 or later...
Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partitirion & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.

Mail doesn't show me the e-mail address

Mail should show me the e-mail address, but it doesn't. I mean.. if I receive a mail from a my friend and Mail thinks it's a spam mail, it put it in the spam directory.
I drag and drop it in the inbox mails, but if I do that, the e-mail address and object disappear!
If I click it, I can see the preview of the mail and the email address and object appear again, but if I try to reply to the e-mail, Mail doesn't know (again) the mail address where to send the reply.. so I need to type it by myself. Is it normal?
Here a screenshot:
http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/3755/mailbugig2.jpg

Oh I see... I'm sorry, iGodess, I should have looked at your screenshot first (I thought you meant something else just by reading), I'm really sorry.
Am I correct: You see the name but not the address in the mailbox viewer (the upper part).
What I see in your screenshot is normal. I'm afraid you can't change that, at least I found no way.
What you see in the mailbox viewer is the name of the sender as you would enter it in Mail.app > Preferences > Accounts > choose one account > Account Information > Full name.
If he wouldn't enter anything there, his eMail address will show in place of the (missing) full name.
Your other problem related to replying with no usable address automatically entered: I guess this doesn't happen with all your messages, correct?
Does it only happen with one friend of yours?
If so he might have defined his Reply-To header wrong, which also could be a cause his messages land in your junk folder: Mail.app thinks "this can't be legitimate".

Importing into Lightroom with card reader doesn't show previews

I am using Lightroom 2.4 with Adobe 5.4 Raw on a Windows XP based laptop -- however the problem I am having also presents on my desktop which also uses Lightroom 2.4 with Adobe 5.4 and Windows XP. In fact the issue is completely the same on both computers: When I try to import photos directly into Lightroom using a card reader, the interface opens, but does not show the previews -- and yes, the show preview box is checked. The preview boxes are there, but they are completely greyed out. If I use the same card reader but direct it to open into Photoshop Elements it shows the previews and it also shows them in Bridge for CS4. So clearly the problem doesn't lie with the computer or card or cardreader. It seems only in Lightroom that the previews do not show up. Adobe raw supports my camera which is set to shoot raw and it also makes a JPG copy, but neither show up.
I spent more than an hour with a tech trying to get this to work and didn't solve the problem. I'm hoping that someone has some bright ideas that will help me out.

I tried to respond before, but I think the message didn't go through. Sorry. Because my Lightroom hasn't been working the way it is supposed to, I have been doing what you suggest -- saving the photos from my card reader to a file through Bridge -- which does open the previews -- and then importing them to Lightroom. But it means one extra step and Lightroom's strength is supposed to be work flow, so I would like to get it to work properly. I think that if the card reader were faulty -- and the problem occurs with several different card readers -- that it wouldn't show the previews in Bridge or even Photoshop Elements, which it does. So I think there is some problem with Lightroom, not the card reader. Any other suggestions? I'd be happy to know about them. Meanwhile, thanks for your reply.
