Mail subject line and safari Goggle Search window removing spaces between words

After upgrading to Lion I can no longer type out a subject line in Mac Mail witout the spaces automaicaly being removed. All words run together. Same situation in Safari's Google Search window. No issues in FireFox. Driving me nuts. Any others with this issue?

Found the answer to this issue. I'm amazed this received no responce from the community. Must mean I was the only one with such issue. Amazinly, the exact same thing was happening on three differnt Macs that I loaded Lion to. The answer was given to me by a very helpful and SMART tech person at Apple Care. Two other Apple Care techs were going to have me reinstall the entire OS after wiping my computers clean. I finally found someone that knew what they were doing. He simply took me to Apple>Preferences>Language & Text. Then I selected the Text Tab and then went to the bottom of the window and Reset Default Settings. Bingo, all was fixed. Each machine I did the same thing on and all are working fine now. Hope by me typing this up will help others if needed since not one person responded to this inquirey.

Why are e-mails (subject line) and ("to" line) still staying in bold print after they have been read?

After I read an e-mail, and after I hit the back space arrow, to look at my list of e-mails, the previously read e-mail still shows up in bold type. Usually when an e-mail is read, and you then look at your list of e-mails, the e-mails that have been read show up in light grey type so you can distinguish these e-mails from the ones that have not been read. Why is this happening? It is very difficult to remember which ones I have read when I am looking at over 100 unread e-mails.

Firefox is not an email program, so your problem depends on what site you are using for email. What site are you using?

Mail Subject Line Automatically Selects All Text When Typing

In Mail I'm typing along in a subject line and randomly the all of text I've entered becomes selected. Then my next keystroke deletes the first entered text. Very frustrating, and I can't figure out why this happens. Maybe OSX's spell checker? How do I turn that off to test?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
{ sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step.
Step 3
{ launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -f -a TextEdit
Step 4
ls -A /e*/{la,mach}* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -f -a TextEdit
Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting.
Step 5
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' | open -f -a TextEdit
Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output.
You can then quit Terminal.

Adobe forms - using form field data to populate subject line and body of email

HI
I have created a form that can be submitted by e-mail. I would like the data entered into the form to populate the subject line and body of the email but have no idea of how to script this. I would be grateful if someone could have a look at the form and see how I can achieve this.
For example
subject line: Travel and accommodation form [Name] [EventName] [StartDate]
Body:
Please open the attached travel and accommodation for for [Name] who will be attending [EventName] on the [Start Date]
Here is the code for my button:
<field name="Submit" y="219.075mm" x="139.7mm" w="34.925mm" h="6mm">
            <ui>
               <button/>
            </ui>
            <font typeface="Myriad Pro"/>
            <caption>
               <value>
                  <text>Submit</text>
               </value>
               <para vAlign="middle" hAlign="center"/>
               <font typeface="Myriad Pro"/>
            </caption>
            <border hand="right">
               <?templateDesigner StyleID apbx2?>
               <edge stroke="raised"/>
               <fill>
                  <color value="212,208,200"/>
               </fill>
            </border>
            <bind match="none"/>
            <event activity="click">
               <submit format="pdf" textEncoding="UTF-16" target=mailto:[email protected] xdpContent="pdf datasets xfdf"/>
            </event>
         </field>
Please excuse my ignorance as not competent with XML so any help would be gratefully received. Have already tried some methods posted on here already but not helped.

You should post this to the LiveCycle Designer forum here if you haven't already.

E-mail subject line truncated to 50 characters

We are on SAPKB70012 and are having this problem too. Have you been able to resolve this? If so, how?

My e-mail subject line is repeated when I try to open an e-mail

My e-mail subject line is repeated when I try to open an e-mail, so I have to open this line too, before I can read my e-mail. It takes up alot of space & means I have to do another unnecessary thing for EVERY e -mail ! Then I have to CLOSE it twice to get out! What is happening?

I am having the exact same problem with my Macbook Pro, all of a sudden the password started rejecting and I cannot use that gmail account. This appears to be a bug. The quick fix was to set up another gmail account and forward the mail from the old gmail account to the new gmail account that works with the IMAP service. This way the mail from the gmail account with the rejected password will still come through and appear in MAIL.

I want to change subject line and save emails from others

For instance my client may respond to an email question and I want to change the subject line because it includes an answer such as clients address, but I cannot figure out how to change the subject line and save it to my file folder I have for them.

This add on claims to do that.

There might be others but that is the first one that came up. I have never used it so I cannot speak for how well it works.

Yosemite Mail 8.0 and Safari 8.0 text input slow

Since I upgraded to Yosemite I have noticed that text input in Mail 8.0 and Safari 8.0 is extremely slow. Mail, however, is somewhat worse than Safari. As I type this there is a lag before what I type appears on the screen but in Mail it can be as much as three or four seconds - so if I make a typing error, trying to backspace and correct it can be a bit of a nightmare.
As far as I can tell, it does not occur in any other application. I have read reports of Yosemite being slow but nothing seems to mention this particular problem. That said, I have tried some of the fixes such as turning off transparency but nothing has worked.
Anybody any clues?

I'm looking at Activity Monitor and at the moment, under Memory > Memory, I see:
(plugin icon) Mail Web Content 2.0
Safari 1.22 GB
No other applications have anything near this. Even Photoshop with several images open only has 300 MB.
Is this normal?

When I copy/paste a paragraph from a PDF doc, it pastes with no spaces between words. How can I fix this? I've searched everywhere for the solution but didn't find anyone had this issue.

When I copy/paste a paragraph from a PDF doc (onto Facebook status bar, for example) it pastes with no spaces between words. I.e: "The manhadajugofcoolwaterand offeredmeadrink." How can I fix this? I've searched everywhere for the solution but didn't find anyone had this issue. I'm new to Apple so any help will be much appreciated. Thanks!

I can't speak about this occurring with FaceBook since I don't use FaceBook, but I see the same type of thing when I copy and pasted from websites. It doesn't always happen and I cannot find any particular set of circumstances under which it occurs or does not occur.
I am merely responding to let you know that it happens to me as well and I have seen no way to correct it. I'm not so sure that there is a way to correct in in that it may have something to do with how the original text is formatted in the PDF or on the website and how it eventually "fits" into the text field or the area in which it is pasted.

Find space between word with different endings and digit

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out how to find spaces between word and digit.
I am limited to use only word 'WORD' (either capital or small caps) with different endings like -ing -s -y and more (using \S+).
I wrote something like (?i)(?<=WORD\S+)\s(?=\d+) but this does not seem to work due to some limitation of lookahead I belive?
Any suggestions?
Peter

Peter Stnsz wrote:
… find what: (\<WORD\S+)(\s)(?=\d)
change to: $1~s
Hmmh?
Your Grep do not find your first example: WORD 0,2 (WORD without any ending)
And you don't need the second ()
And please do not use \S
Use this instead:
(\<WORD\l*)\s(?=\d)
(l is the little L)
Have fun

Duplicate subject lines and dates in Mail messages

In a number of messages I've sent from a Samsung mobile phone to my iMac running Mail on Leopard, the messages have multiple subject lines (in some cases 7!), multiple date lines, and the from and to address is also dupliacted many times.
Has anyoner else come across this problem, and what can I do to resolve it?
Thanks

This is a recurring problem with Exchange servers. Sometimes it's fixed by rebuildiing the mailbox. Another possible fix is to disable the account in the Mail preferences dialog, then re-enable it. Back up all data before making any changes.

Mail subject lines blue or disappearing!

My Mail is acting weird for about a week now. Two things.
1. Large numbers of the subject lines in the top panel where my mail is listed will turn blue. They'll turn back to the normal black text sometimes either when I scroll or restart Mail.
2. The subject lines started completely disappearing today! They're still there, as if in white font on white background and I can still click on them and read the email, but they're invisible.
Is Mail malfunctioning because it can't handle thousands of saved emails? That's a bummer if true. I thought I could use it like an archive.
I searched the communities for answers first and read something about "rebuilding" mailboxes which I'd never heard of before. If that's what I need to do can you direct me to complete instructions. I don't want to lose my emails.
Thank you for helping!

Hi Michele,
Not likely too many eMails doing it.
Open Activity Monitor in Applications>Utilities, select All Processes & sort on CPU%, any indications there?
How much RAM & free space do you have also, click on the Memory & Disk Usage Tabs.
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.
In the Memory tab of Activity Monitor, are there a lot of Pageouts?
If you want to Rebuild a Mailbox...
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), it will try to repair your Disk Directory while the spinning radian is happening, so let it go, run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions.
In Mail, highlight that Mailbox, under Mail's Mailbox menu item, choose rebuild.
Reboot.

Email form created in Acrobat 9, custom subject line and content

I'm revisiting a form I created about a year back, and I can't remember how I got a javascript to work.
What I want is for the user to click on an "Email" button, which will open their email program and create a new message, with the subject line filled out from one of the form fields, and then will have specified text in the body, as well as attaching the document and sending it to multiple email addresses.
I have a javascript that I thought worked, but I keep getting error messages on it when I try to test it out.
The script I'm currently trying to make work is:
// This is the form return e-mail. Its hardcoded
// so that the form is always returned to the same address
// Change address on your form
var cToAddr = "[email protected]; [email protected]";
// First, get the client CC e-mail address
var cCCAddr = this.getField("Teacheremail").value;
// Set the subject and body text for the e-mail message
var cSubLine = this.getField("CourseNumber").value + " corrections form submitted by "
+ this.getField("TeacherName").value;
var cBody = "\nThank you for submitting your form.\n" +
"Save the mail attachment for your own records.\n" +
"Do NOT worry if the form appears blank in your email message.";
// Send the form data as an PDF attachment on an e-mail
this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCc: cCCAddr,
cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});
What am I doing wrong?
