Since installing Maveric I have not been able to enter my smart groups as addressees in email  Any suggestions why?

I have just installed OS XMavericks and since installation have not been able to select smart groups to send emails to.  Any ideas why?  Also I suddenly can't italicise or embolden text in an email.

You have to manually select the addresses from the smart group for the To: button to enable in the Window menu -> Address Panel window.   You can't just select the Smart group icon alone.
As for italics and embolden, those are non-standard formats that only work when e-mailing people with certain e-mail clients.  Mail menu -> Preferences -> Composing lets you choose message format as Rich Text or Plain Text.  Only Rich Text enables italics and embolden.   Responding using the same format as original will enable that if the original had bold or italic.  Everyone supports plain text.

  • Since installing Maverick, I have not been able to load Bridge.  Photoshop seems to be fine.

    Since installing Maverick, I have not been able to load Bridge.  Photoshop seems to be fine.

    I have done this on numerous occasions but I think that my Iphone has a defect. After many tries, reinstalls, deletion of content, changing content to be stored on external hard drive, deleting itunes and cleaning computer I managed to get all of the songs on and things seemed okay for a while.
    The problem returned about a week ago after downloading a new album from Itunes. I now have 12.5k of songs leaving 10gb spare on Iphone which should be more than enough room to operate properly. Last night it seemed to be dowloading ok (after doing all of the above again for the umpteenth time) this morning it revealed that it had just synched 2.5k of songs and 18gb of "other" on the contents bar. it wont synch now as it says its over capacity. So the 18gb of "other" would probably be corrupted data that means it must corrupt each song as it tries to synch it.
    The 2.5k of songs it did synch are working on the Iphone as is every song in the library on Itunes. I did completely delete the new album I bought and redownloaded it from the store then tried to synch just that album and it worked fine.
    Just about time to dump apple I think!

  • Since installing Lion, I have not been able to utilize Time Machine (does not recognize the back-up drive); my wireless mouse does not function properly; I have experienced unreasonable delays in the system.  Is there a fix or upgrade coming?

    Is there a fix or upgrade to deal with the many problems I am experiencing since I installed Lion?  I can no longer utilize Time Machine (Does not see the back-up drive); my wireless mouse does not work properly; my iMac has slowed down considerably.  I am reminded of having a PC machine again.  Bummer!

    Either downgrade to Snow Leopard or try reinstalling Lion.
    Reinstalling Lion Without the Installer
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alterhatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.
    Downgrade Lion to Snow Leopard
    1.  Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button.  When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area.  If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing.  SMART info will not be reported  on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Quit DU and return to the installer. Install Snow Leopard.
    This will erase the whole drive so be sure to backup your files if you don't have a backup already. If you have performed a TM backup using Lion be aware that you cannot restore from that backup in Snow Leopard (see below.) I suggest you make a separate backup using Carbon Copy Cloner 3.4.1.
    If you have Snow Leopard Time Machine backups, do a full system restore per #14 in Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions.  If you have subsequent backups from Lion, you can restore newer items selectively, via the "Star Wars" display, per #15 there, but be careful; some Snow Leopard apps may not work with the Lion files.

  • I have joined I cloud. My Iphone and pc are matched to my icloud account. However, I have my old computer with my library which i have not been able to sync with I cloud or my ipod. Any suggestions

    I can not sync my old computer itunes library to my ipod or to icloud. I have the latest version of itunes, yet the button where you click for itunes match is not there. Any thoughts or suggestions?

    When you say you have the latest version, what is the specific version?  I only ask because I hear people say that all the time and they have no clue what version they have or what the latest version is.
    What happens when trying to sync the device with iTunes?
    What specific device and what version of iOS?
    iCloud alone is not syncing of music... what exactly are you trying to accomplish with iCloud?  Have you signed up for iTunes Match?  If not... there is no syncing of media via iCloud.

  • Ever since I installed Lion, I have not been able to print wirelessly

    Ever since I installed Lion, I have not been able to print to my Brother MFC-7840W. It shows in System Preferences, and says "Ready", but when I try to print I get a "cannot connect to device" message. Also in the printer utility it says bonjour malfunction. I have installed the most current drivers as well. Also, all other computers (PC's) on the wireless network are not having any problems printing! Help! I hate it when the household PC lovers mock me!

    The Bonjour Multifunction entry under Kind simply indicates that both the printer and scanner queues will be created for the single queue, the same that happens when the device is connected to the Mac via USB. I see the same thing with some Canon AIO's and it doesn't stop the Mac from printing.
    With you mentioning that a direct connection also fails, then it suggests that there is an issue with the driver or the printing system. A reset of the printing system is a good starting point. This will require you to create the queue again, but not install the printer drivers. And try it first with the USB connected printer before trying it on the network.
    If the direct connection still fails after the reset then the drivers could be a cause. Other Brother owners mentioned having problems with printing after a recent Brother update. From memory they found they had to get a CUPS driver from the Brother web site to resolve the symptom.

  • Since I installed Firefox I have not been able to send emails from aol. What is causing this problem and how do I fix it?

    Whether I am responding to an email or composing a new one I have not been able to consistently send emails since I downloaded FF. Once or twice I managed to send one but do not know why they went through since typically do not get past the technical problem message. The error always says there is a technical problem but does not specify the actual problem.

  • HT201412 I upgraded my iPhone 4S around 12 this afternoon.  The upgrade took about 1 hour to do.  I turned the system off; restarted and followed the steps as prompted.  I made 1 telephone call that went through.  Since that time i have not been able to d

    Since upgrading my 4S today i have been able to make 1 complete call and nothing else.  I took my phone to an AT&T dealership only to find out they could not help me at all that I needed to contact AT&T directly regarding the iphone upgrade.  The gentlemen Dwayne Walker did a soft reset and it did not work.  The phone goes on for 30 seconds and shuts down to black screen with apple in middle.  I have tried everything i know and i wish i never upgraded to 7.0.2 software becuase now i have no phone and i my sister and her daugther are both in hospital and i am the emergency contact with no phone

    You need to contact Apple by phone.  It should be a free call since it is caused by the upgrade.  They will walk you through the fix. 
    It may take quite a while.
    I too am having 7.0.2 issues.  My battery life is now 4-5 hrs TOPS an it's the IOS problem.  Apparently I am not alone.  I have an appt tomorrow to further troubleshoot.  So right now I'm staying plugged in at all times.  I have an Iphone 5. 
    I had a similar problem to yours when I upgraded my iPhone 4 to IOS6.  They worked it out for me.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> 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).

  • Is there a known problem with the iPhone 4 personal hotspot? I have not been able to use this feature for about 3 days with any of my other idevices - it does not come up as available.

    My iphone 4 never had a problem with the personel hotspot until 2-3 days ago .
    Now when I turn the hotspot on none of my other i-devices can see it. I have tried the turn on/off thing and I have tried the complete turn off holding the 2 buttons on both the phone and the other devices (ipad x 2 and ipods x 3). This is very frustrating.
    Oh and I have spoken to my carrier it is not them.
    Any suggestions?

    Setting >> General >> Cellular >> Cellular Data Network >> Reset Setting
    Restart (hold on/off button >> slide to power off)
    I got same prob after update ios 6.1 (not sure during update to 6.0.1) iphone 5

  • Since IOS 7 I have not been able to sync all of my songs.

    I have had nothing but issues since I downloaded IOS 7, I am fairly computer literate but I cannot solve this particular problem.
    After the new system wiped everything off my Iphone, without warning, I had to sync everything again, it all worked, eventually, except the music.
    I have and Iphone 4s, 64gb. and basically just use it for a phone and music (no videos as space is needed for music.)
    The main issue was the amount of time it was taking to sync about 10k of songs, (longer than normal which was about a 1000 songs an hour) it seemed to hang whilst waiting for changes to be applied which took 45mins to an hour before it started syncing songs then would just stop syncing after maybe a couple of thousand songs, and then when starting again I would find that there were no songs on the iphone and it would start from the begining again. After a couple of frustrating days I restored my iphone back to factory settings, uninstalled Itunes from my laptop and after downloading Itunes again I set it up as a new phone. I thought this was working and the next day after a night of syncing it all looked good as it indicated it had finished and the desired 10k of songs showed up in the blue section of the sync bar with 20gb free (which was what is was in the past). However later I found that there were only 6k of songs on the Iphone.
    After many tries it simply will not transfer anymore despite it indicating that during the sync that it shows 6k of songs then the bar it increases to 10k just before it commences the downloading stage of the sync (and again it seems to stall at the "waiting to apply changes" part of the sync).
    Ok over to the Brains Trust!

    I have done this on numerous occasions but I think that my Iphone has a defect. After many tries, reinstalls, deletion of content, changing content to be stored on external hard drive, deleting itunes and cleaning computer I managed to get all of the songs on and things seemed okay for a while.

Last night it seemed to be dowloading ok (after doing all of the above again for the umpteenth time) this morning it revealed that it had just synched 2.5k of songs and 18gb of "other" on the contents bar. it wont synch now as it says its over capacity.

    The 2.5k of songs it did synch are working on the Iphone as is every song in the library on Itunes. I did completely delete the new album I bought and redownloaded it from the store then tried to synch just that album and it worked fine.
    Just about time to dump apple I think!

  • HT201068 Since this update I have not been able to log in to my online banking account

    When I try to log in to my online banking account I get caught in a cycle.  I enter my account number, then my password, then I am flipped back to the first screen.  I enter my account number, next my password, I get flipped back to the first screen and so on. 
    I called the Bank Tech support and there is something in the latest update that has created this problem. 

    Your bank tech support doesn't sound very helpful. Are they specifically saying that they do not support Safari Version 8.0.3? If so, did they suggest another browser and version (e.g. Firefox) that they do support on the Mac? Did they suggest/have you tried clearing history and cookies? To do that, open Safari and click Clear History and Website data on the menu named Safari.

  • Since updating Firefox, I have not been able to send or forward emails. - what should I do to correct his problem?

    I can open my hotmail address and download emails but cannot reply or forward. When I try to do so I just get a blank when try to type a reply.

    The new version of Hotmail requires at least Firefox 3. Unfortunately Firefox 3 will not run on your version of Windows. You could use IE 6 to access Hotmail, or another option is to set up POP3 access via an email program.

  • I recently upgraded some Adobe software (and I can't remember which one) and since that time, I have not been able to get videos on Firefox. I still can on Safari. What gives?

    I'm sorry I can't remember which software I was requested to update....but it was an Adobe product. Now, Firefox is a little slow and fluky and I can't get videos at all. Sometimes, I can't google--it freezes, but intermittently.

    Try a SMC reset:

  • Two-fold question, can I export pictures from iphoto to an external drive? I have not been able to create volumes on My Passport for Mac when exporting photos, why is that?

    I have a Mac Book Pro that I use iphoto 6 for my pictures. However, I noticed my hard drive was filling up too rapidly so I purchased a WD My Passport for Mac 500GB. I select photos(the number does not matter), click File>export, and select the location(and yes, I specify the size of picture's maximum, and the file extension, and I click Export and the export initializes and then stops. Telling me that it is unable to create the volumes ont the My Passport. There is plenty of space on the hard drive. I don't know what I am doing wrong. It seems like the process should be very simple to MOVE, COPY, EXPORT photos. Why is this so difficult? What am I doing wrong?

    My photo library cumulative is maybe 1.3 GB tops, however I back it up to the external drive every upload. I don't think the issue is converting calculations because as I said in my previous post, sometimes when I stop transfer to the SD flash drive and restart the copying process it will complete the library of 60-80 photos in about 2 minutes like it should. The issue is that it will not proceed to copy most of the time, and the copying status bar says preparing for a long time
