Slow Text appearing on Screen during typing emails

Hi,
Slow teat appearinh on Screen during typing emails

I'm wondering if it's something to do with memory management? I'd been playing Scrabble and other apps prior to trying to send an email and it was sluggish. Then I rebooted my phone, went straight to my Gmail account, and typed quickly and efficiently as usual...
Perhaps some of the apps aren't shutting down properly or draining the phone's memory? This seems like something that can be fixed by a firmware update (or perhaps better coded third party apps).
I'd be interested to hear if a restart helps you guys out too?

Delay from when typed to when text appears on screen?

I'll type but there is a long lag time before the text appears on screen.
This seems to have started after upgrading to Mavericks and is most noticeable in Apple Mail.
Any tips as to how to diagnose and fix?
FWIW.....
I'm on a MacBook Pro (closed lid), Apple monitor, Apple wireless keypad and mouse.
And now OS X 10.9.3.
Thank you.

I had a very similar problem. No matter where I typed (Word, Apple Mail, online, etc.) I would get a typing lag. I did all the self diagnostics, repair disk, hardware test, PRAM reset, etc. Still had the problem. Even my mouse was lagging when i moved it. I took it to the Genius Bar and they did a hardware check and it did not reveal any problems. The tech said it still may be a hard drive or memory problem. They reformatted the hard drive and did a clean install of mavericks. I moved a few items from my time machine back up and the problem started to occur again. I reinstalled my old RAM, still had the problem.
I had wanted to upgrade to a Solid State Drive (SSD), so I purchased a Samsung EVO 500 GB SSD. As I was cloning the new hard drive, I noticed the problem wasn't occurring anymore. So I suspect it was the hard drive starting and stopping that was causing the problem. During the cloning process the installed drive was constantly spinning, therefore not starting and stopping. I've installed the new SSD and in addition to the lag problem going away, my Macbook is wicked fast!

Reach function "find" on a text appearing on screen

I reached a text on my screen from a références law site like an act or a rule. I am looking for a specific word in the text: ex. Discrimination. Is there any function i CAN use to get directly to the word "discrimination" otherwise than scrolling every page?
Thank you for any help.

If you are using Safari on the iPad, enter the text or word on the search field next to the URL field and the scroll to the bottom of the window that pops up from that search and at the bottom you can select the "on this page" option to search text on the web page.

Safari - Making Webpages Text Appear Full Screen

Made this posting in a different link - thought I would re-post as new thread...
Hello, new to this forum. I am having difficulties with my safari window settings. I own an ibook G4 14" and I recall when I first set it up that certain webpages would not display in the full window of safari after I draged the bottom triangle to full screen. Eventually I was able to get all sites to work full screen (ie. the text spreads across the whole screen - left to right) but I can't recall how.
Now I just purchased a 15" MacBook Pro (having sleep problems and hissing, but that is another story) and now I can't get the sites to work. For example www.soccernet.com only displays on the left side of my screen (whole right side is blank) - on my ibook it is full screen.
Can someone advise as to how this can be changed.
Many thanks

Thanks for all of the replies. Is there a way to
override the fixed width of some sites? It seems a
waste of my screen size if I can only view a portion
of the screen.
You are not seeing only part of the screen, the screen you are viewing it on it just bigger.
Imagine you have a webpage that is 800 pixels wide. You then view it on two monitors; one that is 800 pixels wide, and another that is 1600 pixels wide. On the 800 pixel monitor, the webpage will take up the whole width of the screen, but on the 1600 pixel monitor, it will only take up half the width of the screen.
The only way around it would be to lower the resolution of your display (System Preferences > Display), but I wouldn't recommended it as you will be losing a lot of display space.

Appear flashing line on the screen during work

I bought Macbook Air since 1st July 14. I found the flash line appear on screen during work but it's just shot line at the first and It appears just few secs. So I thought it's not too serious to me. Till now the line is seem more longer and appear frequently. Then I decide to take it to Service centre. They said my screen is not in its position. It's just a bit, If you don't look at it exactly, you won't notice it. I don't know what happen. It's usually as it was on fist day I bought it, never be fallen it. It's still in the good condition. They fixed my problem by re-fit my screen but after I use it again I still found that flash line. what should I do? Now my air got the scratch on the screen edge from re-fitted it. I really disappoint.

I'm assuming by "flash line" you mean there's a horizontal or vertical line randomly appearing on your screen? If that's the case I've seen that on laptops before. If its an intermittent issue try to move the screen forwards and backwards on its hinge to see if you can find one spot where that line almost always appears. You should have an issue with the cable connection to the main logic board, or the cable itself could be malfunctioning.
Also what exactly did they do when they "re-fit" your screen? Did they simple check the connectors, or actually dissemble the computer and resemble it? Either way if a cable is bad then it wouldn't have made a difference. You may be looking at a warranty replacement solution on this one.

I am using an early 2008 MacBook Pro and am having issues with it deleting text on its own (in word, emails, etc.). As I am typing it all of a sudden starts deleting and I can't stop it. What can I do?

I am using an early 2008 MacBook Pro and am having issues with it deleting text on its own (in word, emails, etc.). As I am typing it all of a sudden starts deleting and I can't stop it. This happened once before and it was due to a buldging battery pressing on the track pad. I checked the battery and it appears to be fine. What can I do?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Is there a way to either run a "Score" thing in Keynote, or a text box that can be typed in during the presentation?

Is there a way to either run a "Score" thing in Keynote, or a text box that can be typed in during the presentation?

Keynote does not have this function.
The only way to do this is to use an annotation application. Google and find the cost and functionality you need, many have trial downloads.

Typing yields only "ding" and no text appears!!!

This can't get any more basic!!!
New document, typing on keyboard yields only ding sound and no text appears in the document!!! ***????

You probably have opened a blank Layout mode template which has no default text area.
There are 2 kinds of templates, Word Processing templates which flow from page to page and which you can just type into, and Layout templates which require you to create text boxes to type into.
See the sidebar in the Template Chooser to see which is which.

Is there a way to still get audible alerts of new messages without having any banners or text appear in the lock screen?

I'm trying to make sure I am doing this correctly. How do you set up alerts for both text messages and iMessages so that even when the phone is locked you will still get an audible or vibration alert as soon as the message is received? And is there a way to do this without having any text appear on the lock screen that shows who the message is from. My phone stays in locked mode most of the time but I still want to recieve alerts for new messages as soon as they arrive. I'm also concerned about privacy so I don't want any text or preview or even any information about the sender to appear on the lock screen. I just want a vibration or audible alert.

Open the Settings app > Notifications > Messages. Scroll down adn turn OFF "View In Lock Screen". You may want to consider setting Alert style to none, but this will not impact what happens when the screen is locked.

Scripting text into a portfolio's welcome screen during batch

Hello,
I'm curious to find out if theres a way to insert text into a PDF Portfolio's welcome screen during a batch process with a script? I'd like to not do it individually for several hundred documents if possible.
DM

Thanks,
and to clarify I meant that I am looking to script text into a portfolio's welcome screen text field. A bit of a critical oversight on my behalf.

Slow typing emails on v2.0

When typing emails, the text shows up really slowly. I can easily type 2-3 words before the phone has displayed the 2nd letter of the first word. Is anyone else having this problem? And indeed, has anyone got a solution?
Typing text when texting, in notes and so on works as it did before with no problems or lag. (Not been able to install apps so couldn't tell you how it performs there.)
For reference:
Original iPhone with new 2.0 update
Google mail account - not tried with another mail account provider as I don't have one.

I'm wondering if it's something to do with memory management? I'd been playing Scrabble and other apps prior to trying to send an email and it was sluggish. Then I rebooted my phone, went straight to my Gmail account, and typed quickly and efficiently as usual...
Perhaps some of the apps aren't shutting down properly or draining the phone's memory? This seems like something that can be fixed by a firmware update (or perhaps better coded third party apps).

After an update or installation, your MBP may take some time to index its files. Give it some time - but if you don't see any improvement, post here - you'll get an answer!

When using Hotmail my email text appears black, but when I look at them in my sent folder they are going from black to grey. Can this be resolved?

When using hotmail my email text appears blac, but when I get replies or look at the sent folder the emails are partly black text and then go grey, how do I stop this happening all the time please

Which email service provider are you using? You can install DropBox and share links to the files that way. When you snd to your self (cc or bcc) do the items show up? What file types and sizes are these attachments? Are you sending over WiFi or cellular connection? Try using more than one email account from a different provider (Gmail, yahoo, iCloud, etc) and see if it is email provider specific.
