Suddenly, messages are not displaying correctly, how can I cure this?

Messages have stopped displaying correctly, or, in some case, at all. The messages have downloaded OK. Even messages which were displaying correctly earlier, now don't. It occurred after 'finger' problems - I tried to type something into Firefox but failed to change focus from Thunderbird to Firefox first and have obviously changed some setting. What can I do to restore normal behaviour?
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, and even deleting all references I can find to Thunderbird from the AppData folders in the users directory all to no avail.

Thank you for the suggestions. They did not cure the problem, but that is because I think now that there is no problem; Thunderbird is working normally. It appears to have had a temporary glitch and has corrupted 8 or 9 messages around the one I was viewing when I hit wrong keys. The corrupted messages seem to contain the headers of dozens of other messages, some quite old. Apart from those few messages, all others in the root inbox folder and in all sub-folders seem OK.
Thanks again for trying.

    You don't in the condition it's in. You will either have to get the phone replaced by Apple or pay a 3rd party to repair it.
    there seriously should be more than two ways to solve this other wise apple is useless and we will never buy another apple product.

    Try running these songs through MP3 Validator to see if there any issues.
    If nothing else, convert them to another format such as AAC via iTunes using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Plain Text will not display correctly, how can i edit html?

    Hello,
    my beloved MacBook Pro has been a godsend, however i have found that it is incapable of displaying Plain Text, in Text Edit, Safari (View Source), or Dreamweaver's code view. Thus, i am finding it impossible to view or edit html.
    the way it displays is either all jumbled and overlapping, or spread out over impossible distances. sadly i cannot post a picture.
    we also have a G3 and a G4 in the house, both running 10.3, and they also have the same issue with plain text.
    I have not found any topic on this, here or in google. can someone please help?
    thanks,

    Tom, very kindly, has got me most of the way to a happy ending.
    one or another font file or cache was causing the problem. i removed all fonts from Home/Library/Fonts, then ran FontFinagler, rebooted, and things display correctly.
    now i must figure out how to establish which fonts are suitable suitcases to be used.

  • I can not perform software updates or download any programs. They appear in the download box as images that are not recognized. How can I fix this?

    I can not perform software updates or download any programs. They appear in the download box as images that are "not recognized". I thought maybe my antivirus software was setting up a firewall, but I have disabled it, so that's not the case. Any suggestions as to  how I can fix this?

    If the downloads are gone, it's possible that Windows is removing the downloads based on security policies set in IE. I realize that sounds strange, but it's related to Firefox's feature of submitting downloads to your virus scanner and marking them as having come from the internet.
    To test this theory, you could try disabling the scan feature. I assume you have good "real time" antivirus protection which checks every file saved to your hard drive. (If not, you really should get that, and you can use Microsoft's free [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials Microsoft Security Essentials] for now until you have time to review all the available choices.)
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''scan''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Double-click '''browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone''' to toggle its value.
    Firefox now should ignore Windows' download security. Does it change how Windows handles the file?

  • Emails I print are not legible. How can I fix this ?

    The text when I print emails come out with spaces between the letters of all words.
    How can I get my emails to print correctly?
    This does not happen if I print using word. This does not happen if I print the same email using explorer .

    If it was fixed in the nightly's on 2-28 then I would be able to print again. I hope there is a fix before long, this is a bad issue for alot of us.

  • I have many pdfs that have the identical structure, but are NOT forms. How can I collect this data?

    I have dozens of pdfs which have the identical structure, but are NOT forms. I would like to collect data across these pdfs to analyze. Is there a way to do this?

    There are a number of ways that text can be extracted, but it may not be in the order that you'd expect or want. But if it's consistent in any case, you should be able to get at the content you're interested in. JavaScript can be used to loop through the "words" on a page, for example. I've used this approach for several projects that required data extraction.

  • Links in my e-mails are not working. How can I fix this?

    Several e-mails that I opened today that had a link to go the another site Firfox did not allow this to happen. I clicked on the link and nothing happened, it when nowhere.

    If the AOL account is grey out that means you are using that account as the primary account on the phone; when you setup the phone for the first time it asks for an email address, this is the primary account and cannot be deleted without do a hard reset.  To do a hard reset go to setting tap about and tap reset your phone.
    I would recommend using an Outlook/Live account instead and then use the AOL as an email account only.
    No need to shutdown apps the phone does great app management but if you need to and if you are running Windows Phone 8 just hit the back arrow till you get to the start screen.  This means that all open apps are closed.  If you are running Windows Phone 8.1 tap and hold the back arrow and you will see all the apps running and you can hit the (X) to close them.

    Hello, carol17. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I would need a little more information regarding the exact issue and error your are receiving when attempting to install iTunes.  However, here is an article that may help with this issue.

  • After upgrading to iOS 5, my synced photos are not alphabetical.  How can I fix this?

    I have around 2,000 pictures in my camera roll and around 4-5 albums.  Before, all my pictures were sorted alphabetically, but after this upgrade each album's pictures seem to be in a random order.  Any ideas on how to order them the same way they are on my PC?

    I'm afraid you'll have to wait until both Apple and the makers of your games/apps upgrade to new versions.
    Apparently there are still some issues with iOS7 that are being dealt with and the same with some apps.
    As for going back, I don't think you will be able to get this information from these forums...
