OT: Composing forum messages?

There seems to be a basic flaw in the way that partly composed messages are displayed, or I'm doing something wrong. I pasted in a paragraph of text I'd prepared earlier. But I was then unable to scroll to the top of it to edit!
Also, is there no EDIT function after posting a message?

You have 15 minutes from the time you click on the "Post Message" button to edit it. Just click on the little "conversation balloon & pencil" icon in your post; if it isn't there, your time is up. BTW, editing a post re-starts the 15 minute clock.

As you can see, when you edit a post you can add the above and a reason. Just check the box labeled "Add the following text to the message - this indicates when changes were made and by whom."

  • Always use the default account when composing new messages box missing in Outlook 2010 after updating the product key.

    I have 2 accounts in outlook 2010. 1 is for me and the other I have delegate access to. When I am in the delegates email and want to reply it automatically uses the account the email is in. So if I am in my email, the from is me but if I am in the delegates
    email and hit reply the from is them. Now this is not working and I can't figure out how to get it to work. The only thing that changes is that office asked me to activate recently, which is weird since I have had this same computer with the same version of
    office for almost a year now. I did a ton of searching and came across an option on the internet: "Always use the deafult account when composing new messages" but this option is not there on my computer. I checked another computer I have with Office
    2010 also and the option is available so it must be something to do with the office activation because I haven't done it on this computer yet. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Seems this is a hot issue recently, I've post a reply to another thread with the similar topic, please reference that:

  • Cannot return to message list while in a message without clicking on "compose new message icon" and then cancelling it.

    After updating to 8.1 from 8 i cannot return to my message list from inside a message without clicking on the "compose new message" icon and then canceling out of that.
    Also, where it used to say return, it now says "Edit" and the word "Message" on the top of the screens is scruched together.
    Here is a link to a screenshot of my phone from the main messages listing.
    And here is a link to a screen shot of my phone from within a message.

    Hi Sir,
    Code snippet for reference:
    Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, ByRef Cancel As Boolean)Handles OutlookApplication.ItemSend

       Dim SentMailItemObject As Outlook.MailItem
    SentMailItemObject = CType(Item,

  • Contacts are gone...except when composing a message?

    Backstory:
    I originally got my iPhone 4S in June of last year. Before moving to iOS, I used Android. To get my contacts to show up on my 4S I added a "CardDAV" account to sync my contacts from my google account to my iPhone. In October of last year, the account password was reset and I lost access to the account. Every time I entered the contacts app, the phone would prompt me to enter the password for my CardDAV account. This persisted for about two months, and then the phone finally just stopped asking me for the account password.
    A couple weeks ago, I went to my iCloud settings and flipped the "Contacts" sync to on.. because I planned on upgrading my phone soon. Fast forward to yesterday, I delete the CardDAV account from my settings because it hasn't synced my contacts with Google for over a year. As soon as I delete the CardDAV account, all of my contacts disappear. My contacts app says I have no contacts. I went to iCloud to see if my contacts were backed up like I told it to, and there is only one entry in my contacts, which is myself. Since iCloud didn't save my contacts like I thought it was doing, I finally guessed my password and was able to login to my Google account. After looking, the last time it synced my contacts was October of last year.
    If neither iCloud or Google was saving my contacts... where did they go, and how do I get them back?
    Thank you for your help!

    EDIT: Sorry, I forgot to add what I mentioned in the title. While trying to move around my phone to try and find out where my contacts may be, I found that if I go to the messaging app and compose a message, I can type a contacts name in and send them a message as long as I have a thread in the app with them. In the app itself, all of my message threads still show up as phone numbers.

  • Composing new messages using smtp alias doesn't return results

    Greetings,
    Our setup: New Exchange 2013 server with an existing 2007 server.  Looking to move mailboxes to 2013.  When testing with iOS and Android devices we found when composing new messages and using an smtp alias and just typing each users initials (which
    is a smtp alias of each user plus their regular email address)  no results are coming up when connected to Exchange 2013 mailbox on 2013 CAS server.  It works when using Exchange 2007 CAS.
    If we type the user's first name it comes up with the user and smtp address.  However, just typing the 3 letter alias - nothing comes up and we just get "no matches" returned in the messaging app.
    I've checked everything I can think of.  Ideas or suggestions?
    Many thanks!

    I don't understand what you are saying.
    If you uncheck the "Create a sent item to track
    information", the sent item is not created. No
    status tracking will take place.
    I don't understand what you are looking for.
    If the above option is not set, only the received
    items are created.

  • How can i compose a message ringtone

    how can i compose a message ringtone on iphone 4?
    and waht is the suitable way to make backup for my phone and drag it to my cd.
    thx

    The current OS does not support custom message ringtones. iOS 5, reportedly releasing this autumn, will.
    You back up your phone using iTunes. See the user guide:  http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf

  • Unable to view in line images embedded in forum messages

    Using Firefox 4.01 on win 7 - 64
    Viewing a Yahoo forum message the in line images are not visible to me but other users do see them (do not know which browser they use)
    I can see the images as attachments - just not when embedded in the message body

    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

  • KMail locks up when composing/sending message

    When composing a message KMail will lock up and become unresponsive. This can also be caused by clicking the Send button.
    This is a real pain since I can't reply to any e-mail. I've reported the bug here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/22254
    Package version: kdepim-kmail 4.4.9-1

    Launch the Console 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 Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Moving Kudos button on forum messages?

    Hey Everyone -
    I found out that I can move the Kudos button in forum messages inside the message body, next to the reply button. I think it may make sense in this location because it is more apparent that you are giving the message kudos.  In it's current location just under the avatar, it sort of blends in with the user credentials and could be overlooked. 
    I plan to go ahead with this change soon but I wanted to see if there are reasons that the button is better off in its current location.  I've attached two images with the Kudos button in the proposed location - the first is what you would normally see for a message and the second is what you would see if you started the thread and had the ability to accept a reply as a solution.
    Thanks,
    Laura

    Moving the Kudos button looks good! But I'm with Ray, can you move the "Accept as Solution" inline with the others? (See below)
    a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"] {color: black;} a.lia-user-name-link[href="/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/88938"]:after {content: '';} .jrd-sig {height: 80px; overflow: visible;} .jrd-sig-deploy {float:left; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img {float:right; opacity:0.2;} .jrd-sig-img:hover {opacity:0.8;} .jrd-sig-deploy:hover {opacity:0.8;}

  • Contact list not linking to composing a message

    When composing a message or making a phone call, my contact list no longer comes up to pick the address.  This is just started after the Desktop Mnager upgraded itself.  My phone is a BB 8703, DeskManger is now 5.0.1.18.  How do I fix this?

    Can you first try resetting the device? With the device powered on try removing the battery for 30 seconds and replacing it. After the device reboots see how it responds.

  • Can I change header area while composing a message from blue to white

    I'm using Tbird 31.0 on a Windows 7 64 bit computer. I had to reinstall the operating system, and since then, when I compose a message, the header area is blue. I can't seem to find a way to change it back to white, like it was. Can I?

    I'm sorry I don't remember which version of Tbird I was running. I can say that I ''always'' upgrade as soon as the autoupgrade lets me know. However, when reinstalling, I got a message that one of my addons would not run with the version I was installing so maybe not the absolutely most current. In case you are wondering, I installed the appdata/roaming files from my backup so everything would be in place which is how I happened to have an obsolete addon, I would guess.
    Area 2 is the one I'd like to change
