Opening new Mail message in the main window

Hello,
When I get a new mail message notification banner in the right top corner of the screen and click on it, this message is opened in a popup window. I want it to be opened in the main window, like it does when you click on a message if you are already in the Mail app.
Is this possible? I can't find any option to change this in System Preferences or Mail settings.
Thanks!

If the Mail app is frozen then have you tried closing the app via the iPad's multitasking bar and seeing if it works properly when you re-open Mail ?
iOS 7 : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the Mail app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar.
iOS 6 and below : from the home screen (i.e. not with Mail 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't fix it then you could try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

When inserting pictures in a new mail message using the " photo browser" button I can view and select photos but the " choose " button is gone. What have I done wrong?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

How to open multiple mail messages in their own windows

All:
Anyone know of a keyboard command to open several Mail messages in their own windows? For example, I can't highlight all messages in the Inbox and then double click one of them to open them all in separate windows.
Surprisingly, Mail lacks an Open... command.
TIA,
Mike
Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Just select multiple messages and hit Return.

Recently I have been unable to access our Comcast Xfinity E-mail application in Firefox. It opens but is "frozen" so that I am unable to open e-mail messages or the full inbox.

I have been using Firefox instead of MS Explorer to access our Comcast E-mail account on my Lenova laptop for several months.
Firefox was loaded onto my Lenova Laptop during mid-2011.
I continued to primarily use MS Explorer as my search engine while accessing our Comcast e-mail account until the latter part of 2011. At that time I was urged to try Firefox when I seemed to have slow processing speed in Explorer.
It worked great, and I was very pleased with the processing speed while using my e-mail application (seemed much faster than MS Explorer).
A couple weeks ago I first discovered I could not open any of the listed e-mails in the Comcast Inbox, nor am I able to expand to a full view of the inbox instead of the summary view of only the few latest new message titles. New incoming e-mails appear in the listing, but I am unable to open them from my laptop.
I have no problem with our Comcast E-mail application while using MS Explorer on my laptop (except for slower processing speed).
We also can access all Comcast e-mail functions from our Dell desktop in both Firefox and Explorer; therefore the cause of the problem doesn't appear to be Comcast.
Any suggestions on what caused this problem and how to fix it? Thanks for any help you can provide.

New links will not open in a tab, only in the main window

with firefox 21, links will not open a new tab, only in the main window. I have set the option for tab opening, but it still will not work

Did you installed ASK toolbar?
Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
<b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
*You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
*''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

Javascript window.open in BSP: new window is opened behind the main window

Hello,
I use following code to open a new window in my BSP application:
          window.open("<%= controller->display_url%>").focus();
The new windows is openned up, but hide behind the main window, I need the new window to stay at the front, any idea?
On one computer running IE7, the new windows is opened and stay at the front. But not for all other computers running IE6.
Thanks, Jinjin

Hi,
      We used the below logic :
<htmlb:button id      = "help"
                    text    = "Help"
                    design = "standard"
                    onClientClick = "window.open('http://www.sap.com')"
                    tooltip = "Help"
                    />
It worked fine for us.
Try this.
Thanks,
Greetson

How do i get the components when a new window opens from the main window?

In a given application, i am able to get the list of components for the main window. When an event happens in the main window, now a new window opens here how do i get the components for this newly opened window?

getContentPane().getComponents() can be used, only if i know that new class name thats been poped up when the event happens to that main window....
Is there anyway in runtime to know that new class name & fetch the event...

Firefox will open a New Pop-up Window in Windows 7 Aero. When trying to Close it, it thinks it wants me to Close the Main Window. Why?

I use Windows 7 Ultimate in Aero-mode. When a new Firefox window is opened, or a Pop-up window appears, I can't close it without first clicking on that page and clicking the "X" in the corner. Instead, whenever I try to close a window that is not the first window (my main window), it will ask me if I want to close the main window with all the tabs... I have noticed some other slight quirks in this stable release as well, but this one is always present.

When I hover over the window, it does come up front, but as soon as I press the red "X" it goes immediately back to the main window and acts as if I was trying to close that one. Once in a while it will work, but shortly thereafter, it will just go back into this manner. Quite odd. This is the first time I've truly had any problems with Firefox.
In addition to that problem I have noticed a few things, but one that may be linked is sometimes I'll click a link. Although I haven't specified to open it in a new window, it will do so anyhow. This gets annoying quickly. Usually shutting down Firefox and reopening will fix this (and once in a while just leaving it be for a long time). Somehow, I think this issue is somehow linked to the one above.

I'm embarrassed to ask this: when I click to initiate a new email message in the "From" box it automatically chooses the wrong email address (I have three but use one mainly). How can I get the right choice to appear automatically?

I'm embarassed to ask this: when I click on the new mail icon to write a new email message, in the box "FROM" appears the wrong email address: I have three but mainly use one. How can I correct this so that the right email address appears in the "FROM" box?

I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
Repeat for other accounts.

Why does pages 09 keep opening a new mail message

I'm using pages 09 now (was using 08; tried the new 5.0 but it is useless based on backward compatability)
When I click on a name in a document it immediately opens a new email message with To as the contact I clicked on. I've tried turning off all the auto complete, etc I can find but it still happens.
Specifically,
if I go to the footer, the next time I land on a name in the body of the document it opens up a new email.
Once I close the mail message I can continue typing, editing etc.; but the moment I go to the footer and then return to the text box it jumps to a new mail message when I click on a name.
How do I turn this off?
George O.

More on this and a correction-
there is a part of this document outined in blue- whenever I go into this part from the footer it initiates an email to me; it doesn't matter where I click. My earlier question said when I click on a name this happens; but actually anywhere in the outlined area.
some of the document does not have thin blue outlines; when I go there I'm ok- no new email.
so, what are the blue lines about?
and why does it send me an email when I move into the outlined area?
thanks for any help !

Do a backup.
Quit the application.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist. Move the .plist to your desktop.
Restart, open the application and test. If it works okay, delete the plist from the desktop.
If the application is the same, return the .plist to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

Trouble getting thumbnail to open fully in the main window for editing.

I updated to 6.0.6 iphoto and I can't find a way to have my thumbnails taking up the whole main window...not the full screen. Previously when I double clicked on a thumbnail the pic opened in main window, taking up all the space in that window. Now it is just a small pic in the main window and I can't see enough detail to edit the pic.

The files in the Data file are the thumbnails used by iPhoto. The ! you're getting is because iPhoto has lost the link between the library and the original files that will be in the Originals folder.
I don't think it will work but you can try to rebuild the library as follows: launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options.
If that doesn't work you'll have to start a new library and import the files in the Originals folder from the old library. Here's how:
Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
Drag the Originals folder from the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
Once this is completed you can delete the Originals folder from the desktop and the iPhoto Llibrary folder. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

How to create a dialog window with no button that opens along with the main window?

When the main window is open, the dialog window opens up immediately and can be closed by key press. At other times, when the next step, ie: decision, comes to, the another dialog window pops up again and is again closed by key press. Does anyone know how to do? Use the sub-Vi? notification method? occurrence method?
And another thing: how to create a reusable dialog window with no button so that different messages can be sent to it and it can closed by key press. And how to pass the string to the title of the dialog window programmatically?

For your functionality (If I understand it right), nothing needs to be in the event structure. Pressing any key just triggers the event, thus finishing the VI (there is no while loop).
Could you tell me what you mean my "it won't run properly"? Make sure that the front panel of the subVI is closed before starting the main VI. Remember that the subVI is set to "open when called" and "close afterwards if originally closed". So, if you had the panel open already, it won't of course close when finished!
(Actually, the problems is worse when you have the subVI panel open when starting the main VI. you get a catch22 and labVIEW locks up because (1) the subVI is set to dialog and grabs all attention but (2) it has not been
called, thus the event cannot be triggered. So don't do that!!!! As a quick workaround, add the modification shown in the attached image to ensure the panel of the subVI is closed.)
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

I open iWeb but the main window doesn't open/appear on screen. The little windows like the inspector and font windows appear. Can anyone help?

Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
