Preview pane no text wrapping and scrollbars missing, and how to copy corrected settings to other folders/make default?

Hi, (this may be in the 353 items thrown up on a search of Mozilla support, but there seems to be a relevance/sort issue.)
I don't want thunderbird to take up my whole screen. There are some problems when using a smaller window:
1. TEXT NOT WRAPPING IN PREVIEW PANE: can you please advise the settings to make the text automatically wrap to the preview pane width? It goes off the edge. I don't want to have to scroll to see it or make my preview pane bigger. (I did this ages ago and need to do it again as I had to rebuild TB)
3. COPY CUSTOM VIEW SETTINGS FOR ONE FOLDER TO OTHER FOLDERS OR SET AS DEFAULT: can you please advise instructions how to do this? (So I can apply my corrected settings to all other folders views!)
2. DONE: VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL SCROLL BARS IN PREVIEW PANE: (I solved this, this is for readers with the same problems!) The scrollbars will not show if the toolbars at the top of the preview pane are wider than the pane. (I think this is called a bug.) Workaround:
(a) maximise thunderbird window/widen the preview pane to show all the buttons across the top of the preview pane.
(b) click the x on the redundant navigation toolbar to remove from preview pane. (you can put all these buttons on the mail toolbar at the top of the whole window- click view, toolbars to show it).
(c) right click on one of the reply/forward etc icons at the top of the preview pane. Click customise. select icons only.
(d) resize the width of your preview pane to desired width, which can be quite narrow as long as it is wider than the toolbar (you'll see the scrollbar disappear when its too narrow).
Thanks!

'''re: Flowed text.'''
Very odd you do not auto have this as it is usually set as default.
check settings:
'Tools' > 'Options' > 'Advanced' > 'General' tab
Click on 'config Editor' button
it will tell you to be careful :)
In top search type: flow
look for the following line:
* mailnews.display.disable_format_flowed_support; Value = false
* If it says 'True', double click on the line to toggle 'True' to 'False'
If you send plain text and want it Flowed text then check this line as well
* mailnews.send_plaintext_flowed; Value = true
* If it says 'False', double click on the line to toggle 'False' to 'True'
Close config Editor window - top right X
click on OK to save changes to Options.

    Alternatively, you can download the free iConvert App from the App Store, it can convert into .mp4 which you could then add to your iTunes library and sync to iPhone/iPad/iPod :)

    Check the outgoing mail server setting. Make sure that your username and password are in there.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

  • TS2755 My husband and I have iPhone 4S's.  For some reason, my text messages show up on his phone.  We share the Apple ID, and my settings are such that I send and receive from my phone number and email address. How do we correct this?

    My husband and I both have iphone 4S's and for some reason he gets my text conversations w/ other people.  We share the apple ID and I have my settings set to and from my phone # and email address.  He is getting tired of being apart of text messages I am on.  How do we remedy this?

    Each of you need to have your own apple id's instead of sharing is the best way. But you can go to each phones settings, messages, send and recieve, and down to start new conversation from, and make sure each of you have your own email address with a check mark beside of it not the same address.

  • I am a new iPad user and cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to pages. Any insight?

    I am a new iPad user. I cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to a pages document, and vice versa. Any ideas?

    Long press on the text you would like to select (tapping and holding) and then release after the magnifying glass shows up. This will select a single word. Then use the blue dots and drag them to select a region of test. Then press "copy". Open pages, and long press and release where you would like to paste. Then select "paste". That should paste the text.
    If the text doesn't select within the browser, it might be an uncopyable format. Like if the text was within an image, naturally you would be unable to select it. The only thing to do there is long press the image and selecting "save image", adding it to your camera roll. Then you could insert the image within pages.

  • Why can't I open emails in my inbox that arrived before today - I can open today's messages and I can open earlier emails tha are stored in other folders

    Yesterday I had a message that I could not "get mail" because my inbox was full and that I should delete some files or compact. It only had about 20 messages in it but I had ignored suggestions that I compact for a while so I went to the menu and hit compact. Then I could get mail and I could open it while it was in my inbox.
    This morning I got mail and I was able to look at it and I deleted quite a lot. A little later (I had restarted my computer in the meantime) I wanted to look at an email in my inbox. It appeared to open but had no content at all. Similarly when I looked at the message at the bottom of the screen it did not show there at all. The only messages in my inbox that I can look at are the two that arrived today.
    I am able to open messages that are stored in other folders. But moving a message from the inbox to a folder does not make it able to be opened.
    Another odd thing; in the inbox, one message that I can open shows the wrong sender - the sender of a message I had been moving to see if it could be opened if it were stored elsewhere; but the sender is correct when I open the message.
    It is all very weird.

    This sounds like you do have a corrupted Inbox file.
    First of all create a backup of your profile folder.

    Then try to repair Inbox.

  • Installed 5.0 now my memory usage is high and computer is slow. how do i correct this?

    my cpu usage keeps popping up and saying firefox memory usa isge is at 73%. then my computer runs slow. i did not have this problem with my last version of firefox. also usage from plug in container is high. how do i correct this?

    Credit Tony E:
    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data. See https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+Firefox
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use
    your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of
    installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • I have an email thread that has become unprintable (and in some cases unreadable) because each email in the thread is indented and eventually the text is very far to the right margin and even beyond.  How do I correct this?

    I have an extremely long and important email thread that has become unprintable (and in some cases unreadable) because each preceding email in the thread is indented and eventually the text is very far to the right margin and even beyond.  Some of the text is even showing up as only 1 letter per line.  I tried selecting all and then left justifying it, thinking that that would shift everything to the left, but it didn't work.   When I go to print the thread, it shows as 344 pages, which although long, I can't believe it's that long.  What do you think happened to cause this and can it be corrected?

    Ick. So it can't just work sensibly? Sensible would be either autosave overwrites previously autosaved versions or all autosaved versions would be deleted when the message is finally sent. Allowing previous message versions to accumulate endlessly might be beneficial to someone, but does not seem like sensible default behavior.

  • My husband got a new phone number, however, every time he texts me it still says he's texting from his old number.  I've even erased him as a contact and reprogrammed him.  How do I correct this?

    My husband got a new phone number, however, every time he texts me it says it's coming from his old phone number.  I've even deleted him from my contacts and my hotmail contacts, resynced my hotmail contacts, then added my husband as a new contact.  Both of his phones were iPhones but his previous carrier was Verizon and his new carrier is Viaero.  I'm still on Verizon.

    I've fixed my own problem.
    In the end, the issue was with iMessage on the other phone, not mine.
    While I had it connected to iTunes (the other phone, not mine), I could see that iTunes thought it was the temporary number (07429...). I turned iMessage off and back on again and the phone number in iTunes changed to the old (i.e correct) number (07903...).
    Subsequently, texts from my phone to the other phone showed up as blue-bubbled iMessages.
    Hope this helps someone!
    Thanks for reading, if you did.

  • Wife and I have macbook, but one apple ID. I see her stuff on my computer and vice versa. How do I correct that

    My wife and I have a MacBook pro. We share an apple id. When I use my computer I see her favorites, bookmarks etc..(even on my IPAD). I want to be able to have our own accounts so that we don't see each others stuff on each others computers and Ipad, but be able to keep the family share account so we can use iTunes and apps together? Please help.

    You create a new user account on the computer in her name along with her own Apple ID. The following is for using iDevices, but part of it applies in your situation as well.
    Using More than One iDevice on the Same Computer
    This applies mainly to couples who are adding another device and do not want their email, messages, etc. being duplicated on both devices. To begin read: How to use multiple iPhone, iPad, or iPod devices with one computer. You need to establish a separate Apple ID and password for whomever will use the new iDevice. See Apple - My Apple ID and Frequently asked questions about Apple ID. The easiest way is to do this on the computer using iTunes: iTunes- How to set up an Apple ID within iTunes.
    On the computer create a new user account for the person with the new iDevice. This will be the user account that person will always use. He/She will no longer use the other user account. This way that person will have a separate iTunes Library. Note that once done you cannot "share" apps under a single Apple ID. Each of you must purchase your own apps under your own Apple ID. When you decide to split up like this one of you will need to re-purchase the apps that they want to use.
    Start by transferring the new device(s) to a new account along with all your data.  Save any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (unless they are already in the camera roll) by opening your Photos app, tap on Albums icon at the bottom. Now, tap on My Photo Stream album; tap Select; tap on the photos you want to select;, tap the share icon (box with upward facing arrow) in the lower left corner; then tap Save to Camera Roll.
    If you are syncing notes with iCloud that you want to keep then you need to open each of your notes and email them to yourself. Later you can copy and paste the text into new notes created in your new account.
    Tap on Settings > iCloud > Delete Account (only deletes it from this device, not from iCloud; the person keeping the current account will not be affected,) provide the password to turn off Find My Phone and choose Keep on My iDevice when prompted.  Sign in with a different Apple ID to create your new account. Choose Merge to upload your data.
    Once you are on separate accounts, you can each go to icloud.com and delete the other person's data from your account.
    Note: The essence of the above was created by user, randers4. I
    have made substantial changes to improve readability and syntax.

  • When I turn on my partially charged iPhone 5, sometimes it will suddenly go to 0% charge and shut down. How do I correct this?

    I've had my iPhone 5 for about one year with no problems. Lately however, when I turn on the phone when the battery charge is down to say 25% (due to previous use) sometimes moments after turning the phone on it will go from 25% charged to 0% charged and shut down. Other times after the phone has been on for several hours and the charge level is down to about 10% or so, it will suddenly discharge to 0% rather than gradually going down in increments of 1 or 2% at a time. This appears to happen most often when wi-fi is turned on. Any ideas on what may be causing this? I have installed the latest version of iOS7.
    Thanks

    Hi there brianfromwestmichigan,
    I would recommend taking a look at the troubleshooting steps found in the article below.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.
