Mail: why are draft edits in preview pane not saved?

Hi,
when viewing drafts in the preview pane, the preview pane accepts edits, which it doesn't when displaying received mails. However once I highlight another draft in my drafts folder, so that the preview pane shows something else, and then return to the supposedly edited draft, the edits are lost.
Am I just not getting it, or how do you save edits to drafts made in the preview pane. If editing in preview pane is not actually possible, why does it accept edits then?
Many thanks if someone can shed some light on this :-)
p.

D/L Thunderbird but not set it up as active on line program. No new mail settings etc. Most of the old copied file folders were set as "read only" which I understand is the default of backups and causes problems on non rewrite DVD. Not a problem on ex - HD. I do not understand but it seems TB sets up an "APPS DATA" file that it separate from regular data files (but both are in Documents library). One on-line suggestion was to copy old "APPS DATA" into new TB structure ( a replacement) It did not work. Then tried replacing just parts with no better luck.
I only want to open the old files. No desire to going back to TB as working program. Use Chrome and gmail now.
Explorer2 film management program can preview the email in the old file but TB sees it as an empty file.

  • Why are my edited pictures from bridge not saving when I automate batch files through PS?

    When I edit my photos through adobe bridge (open camera raw, make adjustments to 1 picture), then automate (batch) my file folder in PS, the edits I have made don't save. Example, I crop an image & lighten it, I can view the adjusted image in bridge & camera raw, but when I batch my photos the editing I have done is gone.

    Raw files need to be opened and saved before the adjustments are applied.  I have no clue what your "batch save" does.
    A lot more information about your hardware and software is needed.
    BOILERPLATE TEXT:
    If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand,
    such as your platform (Mac or Win),
    exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop (not just "CC", but something like CC2014.v.2.2) and of Bridge,
    your settings in Photoshop > Preference > Performance
    the type of file you were working on,
    machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, total available HD space, video card specs, including total VRAM installed,
    what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far,
    what error message(s) you receive,
    if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them,
    if you're having printing issues, indicate the exact make and model of your printer, paper size, image dimensions in pixels (so many pixels wide by so many pixels high). if going through a RIP, specify that too.
    a screen shot of your settings or of the image could be very helpful too,
    etc.,

  • I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS

    I have 100's of CDs that I have downloaded to my itunes library and they are in the library playable but they do not show up in the C drive under the iTunes Music folder under users.  Why are they in the libary and not in the itunes music folder. Win 7 OS.  When I look in the library under the get info screen it says they are in the folder itunes music, under the c: drive but when I actually go to that folder to look for them they are not there....HELP!

    Hello RumDog,
    I think this article will help you find the media in your library.
    Where are my iTunes files located?

    Discovering and changing the iTunes Media folder location
    Note: You would usually only change the iTunes Media folder location to share music between accounts on the same computer. See this article for specific steps on how to accomplish this. Also, see this article if you want to know how to move your music to a new computer.
    Mac OS X: Click the iTunes menu and choose Preferences.
    Windows: Click the Edit menu and choose Preferences.
    Click the Advanced pane. iTunes displays the location of your iTunes Media folder.
    You can then:
    Note where your media folder is, such as for backing up your media.
    Use the Reset button to reset it's location to the default (which is the iTunes folder).
    Click the Change button to select a folder for a new location. Once you change this location:
    If you make a new or alternate iTunes library, the new location will be used by that library.
    Existing files will not be moved unless you choose File > Library > Organize library and choose the option to "Consolidate files."

  • Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?

    Why are some apps that I bought not on my purchased items on my itunes account?  I bought 4 apps, then had to reset my iPad, later when trying to download them back onto the iPad, they were not listed under by Purchased apps in my account in iTunes.  Thanks for any help!

    Plug in your iPhone to iTunes on your Computer, let it sync the games onto the Computer, then plug in your iPad and go to Apps in iTunes and select the apps then apply and it will download them to the iPad :)
    If you have trouble when in Apps in iTunes on your Computer, it will say iPhone and iPod touch Apps. Hope this helps!!

  • Why In-browser editing in Adobe Muse not available

    Hi
    Why In-browser editing in Adobe Muse not available in my program as you can confirm in the attached image?
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Augusto

    The version of Muse that has in-browser editing will be available next week, but right now the only way to have access to that feature is to get the private beta. If you're a subscriber, wait until Monday, and you should get the update with in-browser editing.

    why are 2 of my Numbers documents not loading from icloud They appear in faded grey and I can't open them ? How do I recover them ?

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

  • Location Service in security and privacy preference pane not saved

    Hi,
    When I want to activate the location service inside the security and privacy preference pane, it is not save. I can check the box but if I leave the pref pane, and come back, it is still uncheck.
    I notice that when I wanted to activate the icloud feature: localized my mac. Thus, it's not working due to my pref in privacy pane not saved.
    I notice as well that in safari, there is a location option as well, and I can't activate it, like iCloud feature due to my pref in privacy always unchecked.
    I tried to repair the authorization of my disk a couple of times
    Is someone experiencing the same issue ?

    The terms of service of the Apple Support Communities prevent us (Apple users) from speculating about why Apple does or does not take certain actions.
    I can't tell you why it is the way it is.  But I can say you could go a long way to alleviating your concern by going to System Preferences > Energy Saver and changing the sleep time such that your computer goes to sleep nearly immediately after you stop using it.  Then even if you forget to log off, your computer will very quickly go to sleep and require a password.

  • How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?

    Hello!
    How do I prevent Lightroom from creating duplicates if the edit in photoshop is not saved?
    So... Quite often I choose to 'Edit in photoshop' from Lightroom but then end up not saving the result. (for example, because I just wanted to experiment with the photo, or I'm not satisfied with the results)
    However, Lightroom always creates a copy of the original photo, which stays in the catalog even if the photoshop changes aren't saved.
    Is there a way to stop this, and only add a photo if it has been edited in PS?
    Using LR5 with PS CS6 on a Mac 10.9
    THANK YOU!

    Select 'Open the Image in PS as a Smart Object'. The image will be rendered by ACR in memory without being written to disc until you save it from within PS.

  • Using Mail, why are several versions of sent messages ending up in Trash?

    Bought the Pro a month or so ago and recently has an operating system update to 10.9.2.  Am using Mail to pick up mail from Server - and all appears to be working fine.  But, when I send a message, several versions of it and appearing in Trash.  A copy does go into Sent Items and th emessages are getting to addressees - but why are several versions of messages appearing in Trash.
    The versions appear to be at different levels of 'editing' - just very strange an dnever seen it before.
    Any ideas please
    Tony

    The only thing I can find in the preferences that refers to drafts is this:
    Perhaps untick Store draft messages on the server. But I'm not sure if that will definately work or not. Either way, it's shouldn't be too much of an issue.

  • My mail subfolders are missing from the viewing pane, but available from inbox drop down menu. How do I get them back in the viewpane?

    After a restart, all of my mail subfolders are gone from the side view pane. I can pull them down individually from the 'inbox' drop down menu. How do I get them back into the sidebar so I can sort mail out of the inbox?

    No anti virus software running as far as I am aware, as in I didn't launch any before reinstating the search email function.
    I was running a folder repair function on my inbox (which seemed to complete successfully for the emails in the inbox) when I noticed the majority of the mail folders had disappeared.

  • Why are jpegs opening in preview?

    I have my file type association set to CS5, yet suddenly jpegs are opening from Bridge into preview. Anyone know why?

    For last few years I had them open in preview from finder, but in Photoshop
    from Bridge. Was I just lucky and my luck ran out?
    Like Nini I also can't imagine why you should use Apple Preview. You can
    view them perfectly in Bridge self when making a custom workspace with big
    preview panel. And if you want to alter the jpeg files preview would
    probably the last option to do so, especially having Photoshop on your
    system ????
    But likely you had altered your camera raw preferences in setting jpeg and
    tiff files to always open in PS instead of the default setting only jpeg
    with altered ACR settings.
    When you have set preview as default opening app for jpeg using the info
    panel in the finder and the camera raw setting to always open in PS you
    probably have back what you want, but why using it that way is still unclear
    to me
