I always prefer macrumors, but those are a couple more just in case the site goes down.
Oh and lets go ahead and get this over with:
I just bought an iPhone 1 year ago. Apple is ripping me off. They forced me at gun point to buy it so I should get a free upgrade. blah blah blah... >.<
We know the drill.

  • Activating/Syncing up on the big day

    I have an original iPhone, so I did not go through any of the chaos of activating on the release days of the 3G and 3GS. Can an experienced user recommend if I should wait until later in the evening to try to activate my new iPhone (mine is being delivered to my home) or do you think it will kind of be a hit or miss situation?
    Thanks...

    Hit and miss, if previous launch days are any indication.

  • Today is the Big Day!!

    Well, after months of slaving away and stashing every last penny away, i have decided today is the day to hit the Apple Store on Oxford Street and buy my White 2.0 MacBook!
    All Iw as after was some advice as to what I am best doing once i get my new baby home, especially with regards to;
    How i go about uninstalling and reinstalling without the things i won't be using
    How do I download Firefox? (as i have heard its better than Safari)
    Literally, what should i do once i get it out of the box??!!
    Please excuse any bad grammar, blame it on the excitment!!

    I got this from one of the more experienced users on this forum. He states the following:
    " Good choice on making the switch. Here is my list of things to do when you first get your MacBook.
    1) After the first boot up, follow the setup assistant. Then, take out the OS X disks that are included in a grey box in the middle of the foam. Insert the first disk into the drive, restart, and hold down the "C" key after the chime. Do a fresh Custom install of OS X, and only install English as the language, non of the trial software that you don't want, and only the printer drivers that you need. This will greatly help to maxamize the space availble on the MacBook.
    2) Once you run setup assistant again, make get connected to the internet. Once you do that, run Software Update, which is in the Apple Menu. Let that go for awhile, and while that is running be sure to have your MacBook plugged in. Once that is all done and the MacBook has restarted, repair permissions which can be found in Disk Utility in the Utlities folder.
    3) Then I recomend you download Maintenance from Titanium Software. This can be downloaded here:
    http://www.titanium.free.fr/pgs2/english/download.html
    Once you have that downloaded and installed, download Flip4Mac, which allows you to watch Windows Media format Movies within Quicktime. Download that here:
    http://www.flip4mac.com/download.htm
    Also, follow this link to a nice little Java Script that makes Safari full screen automatically instead of having to drag it to the correct size. This can be found here:
    http://www.jydesign.com/safari/
    4) Once you have done all of that, calibrate the battery, part of which you will have been doing this entire time by having the computer plugged in. Once the green light lights up on the MagSafe, allow it to sit at green for 2 hours or more. Once that is done, unplug the MacBook and use it untill it forces you to putit to sleep, which will take anywhere from 2-4 hours. Once it is asleep, let it sit for about 4 hours, or untill the sleep light turns off. Once that happens,plug it in and let it charge untill green. Now you you have as much battery capacity as you can.
    Now your MacBook is ready for you to fully enjoy. I'm sure you will have plenty of questions, so post away! I would recomend that you also get AT LEAST 1 GB RAM for optimal enjoyment of your MacBook.
    I hope this helps, and post any questions that you have."
    Hope this helpes - it sure helped me. It was a great post - one that I decided to save =)

  • Is Tomorrow the big day?

    So I have read and seen many rumors that the incredible will receive the froyo update tomorrow, august 18th.  It can even be read on a PC world article.  I've only had my incredible for a little over a week, I can't imagine it being better than it already is.  So will I wake up with a super incredible tomorrow?

    EVERY article written is siting Mashable's source.  This is 1 rumor going crazy!!
    Even if it were to com out tomorrow, you may have to wait a week to get it.  They roll it out small amounts at a time.
    See you next week for the next rumor!
    Yeah they usually do like 200,000 at a time.  The way the Incredible was shipping out if you have one you may not have to wait long at all. 
    Kidding.   It is the second highest selling Droid phone of all time.

  • My Iphone won't sync my CD audio files, after having them on my Iphone for years I updated the other day and they all dissapeared, all that's left is songs bought from Itunes.

    I've had an Iphone 4 and I have been listening to hundreds of songs no problem for the past year and a half I've owned it. The other day I decided to sync my Iphone to my laptop to get two songs from a CD. After doing this process and approaching it like I usually would (without causing any problems) I checked my Iphone to see if the two songs had downloaded after the sync. I discovered that my Iphone had lost every audio file that was not bought from the Itunes store leaving me with a sliver of songs to listen to. I immediatly checked my laptop (a Windows device) to see if my music was still there, thankfully it's all on my laptop and the songs play without a problem. So I attempted to sync the songs to my iphone several times, but the CD songs would simply not sync (When syncing your Iphone it consists of 5 steps, the progress bar skips steps 3-4, those are the steps when your music syncs). I'm not an idiot, I checked the small details (checking all albums and songs I wanted and checking the 'entire music library' option) as well I checked the big details (making sure my phone and Itunes were up to date, changing the USB to Iphone wire with another just like it). After a couple of hours of tinkering with different ways to sync I was stumped so I decided to restore my Iphone to factory settings. After doing that and setting up my Iphone newly I still could not download those CD files from Itunes to my Iphone. I called apple support and they recommended that I uninstall Itunes and re-install it. Again no success, all my music is still on my laptop working fine, but I can't seem to sync my CD songs from itunes to my Iphone. If anybody has any info please help. -A college student who needs something to listen to everyday on the hour long bus

    Amazing steps you've done so far! The great news is this is very unlikely an issue with your iPhone.
    I've run into a similar issue lately as well. I narrowed it down to one song that was causing 30 songs not to sync. I removed the song from the sync list (unchecked it) and all 29 songs were able to sync.
    You may be running into a similar issue. This may be a problem with this version of iTunes, an issue with one song or a group of songs; hard to know for sure. It's important to narrow down and isolate the cause. Most imporantly get that music back on there!
    The way to narrow down the casue add just a few songs at a time (even 1, just to get that first sync finished). Manually syncing is what you'll need here.
    Plug in your iPhone, on the Summary screen (shows a picture of your iPhone, the iOS version, Restore iPhone....; etc). Under the Options area at the bottom choose to Manually Manage Videos and Music then choose Apply in the lower right. The music that's on your iPhone now should be removed from your iPhone now. You're now able to sync music manually.
    The link below explains how to drag the songs from the iTunes library on the computer on to your iPhone which will start the sync. Add just one song just to see if you can get 1 of those hundreds of songs on there. If you can, awesome! Keep adding until you find the song or group of songs that are causing this issue.

  • Anyone else fed up with the 14 day Policy, I am.  Lets do something about it.

    I posted this in the Motorola forums also and now that I can finally post in the Verizon forums, I’m posting it here too.
    This phone (Droid Bionic) worked perfectly the first 14 days accept for one glitch where it toggled to 3G while in the same place and I called into Verizon and they said to take out the battery and SIM card and restart it and it seemed to work fine for the next few days, until the 15th day, past the return point.  I wonder, do these companies try to stall us past the 14th return policy so they can lock us into new contracts and equipment?
    Now after the 14th day the phone toggles from 3-4G all the time no matter where I am and disconnects me from the internet with I get an email notification.  I call Verizon on the 16th day and they give me the canned rhetoric about the 14 day policy and that they will send me a replacement BUT can’t guarantee that it will be new, more likely it will be refurbished. WHAT THE ****.  I just paid for a NEW phone not a used one and within 30 days they want to send me a used one…NO WAY IN HELL is that acceptable.  The car lemon laws are better…you get a new one.
    Well guess what, they tell me that THEY and Motorola are the ones that made these policies…SO, I’m here to ask everyone else that is also fed up with this **bleep** to lobby, boycott, raise hell if you have to, to get these **bleep** policies changed to at least 30 days, like any other product we buy in the USA.
    It’s real interesting that the phone worked fine for 14 days and then it went to crap.  If I want 3G I have the HTC Imagio that worked fine for many years and was still working fine when I got the Droid Bionic, I don’t need a new phone to get 3G.  I think the manufacturer and Verizon are in this together, knowing that their products are built like {word filter avoidance} and won’t last past 14 days, thus the policy.
    After 15 days of gripping to Verizon, they are having me purchase a new Droid Bionic (so I don’t have to get a used one) and will re-start my contract for 2 years, then when I send the crap droid back to them they will credit my account…this is doable, ONLY IF the new phone works. But it is a {word filter avoidance} hassle.  We are the consumer buying YOUR product, we should be treated better.
    According to Verizon, Motorola is coming out with a patch or software upgrade…sometime in Nov. that is supposed to FIX this **bleep** service.
    Well Motorola, if it doesn’t, I’ll be under a new 14 day return policy until the last day of Nov. and if the “Fix” doesn’t work, I’m taking this worthless piece of crap back to Verizon and I’m going back to my 3G HTC.
    You Manufactures need to get it right, OUT OF THE BOX, not have the consumer pay for the product, give them only 14 days and then have them locked into a 2 year contact then you fix the problems.  That’s BULL**bleep**.  And I hope others will join me in lobbying,, call your local TV news channel, boycotting and if we have to, raise hell with all these companies, like you, Verizon and all the other phone service and phone making companies to change the 14 day return policy like Srpint and AT&T...as the Verizon rep stated about thier 14 day policy. 
    If you don’t change your policies, when and IF I buy another product from Verizon, if it glitches even the slightest, instead of calling in for help and getting the stall tactic rhetoric of restarting this and pulling out that to make it work right to stall me past the 14 days, I’ll send the **bleep** thing back 50 times if that what it takes to get a product that works so I don’t get locked into the purchase or the contact if I can’t get something that works.
    I am furious and I’m not going to stop raising hell until you and companies like you start taking better care of consumers like me that spend their money on YOUR products.
    If this next phone I get doesn’t work I’m going back to my HTC 3G.  And I’m not done with you people.  I’m going to do whatever it takes though legal means to see to it that you and companies like you change your **bleep** policies and stall tactics to keep us locked into products that are crap.
    And another note to add: In talking with some of the reps at Verizon, when I ask that an email be sent to me to verify the conversation and I get: “Well we can’t do that”, you are lying.  I did have one of your reps send me an email.  The fact that you won’t tells me that you are trying to keep our conversation off the record so it won’t come back and bit you in the behind later.  Your big company with all its technology can’t send an email…{word filter avoidance}.  Its not going to stop me from waging legal war on you for the crap you put us through.
    This was my 2nd post on the Moto forum:
    I have spoken with someone at Motorola and they invited me to send in my phone to them and then 5-7 business days after they receive it they would send it back fixed or replace it.  However, they would not send me a loaner phone and referred me back to Verizon for that…NOT going to happen.
    We the people made these companies successful and pay them good money for their products; they need to treat us better when it is THERE product that doesn’t work properly.
    I also addressed the update issue with the person from Moto, they couldn’t tell me what issues it will address or when it would be released, only that it’s going to happen sometime in Nov.
    That is why I say this: If it doesn’t work right out of the box and there is 1, even 1 minimal hick up, I’m sending it back 50 times if I have to within the 14 days and I’ll keep doing it until I get one that works or finally get fed up with crappy equipment and go back to my 3G HTC and to hell with Verizon’s contract and Moto’s equipment.
    Also I have learned talking with the person at Moto that it is ONLY Verizon that has set the 14 day policy and has nothing to do with Moto.  Another bit of incorrect info I got from Verizon, and I quote: “We have to abide by the manufactures policies they set and we cannot change the 14 day policy…OK so who’s lying here, Verizon or Moto?
    Doesn’t really matter, we the people need to take action and put a stop to this outrageous **bleep**.  How?  By sending these **bleep** things back the minute they don’t work, within the 14 days unless they change it to longer, like at least 30 days and don't let them stall us with their **bleep** over the phone.
    And two, if we do have a glitch that we have to call in about because the product doesn’t work, the time clock starts over but our contract count down time does not if we have to have it replaced with a NEW product or decide we are fed up with the crappy product and want to cancel it all together and go back to what we had, within the 30 day period AFTER the last glitch we called in about.  If we can get them to change it to 30 instead of 14.
    That will keep them and the manufactures of these products on their toes and stop selling us crap that they later have to fix.  It should work out of the box and if it doesn’t 30 days down the road, there should be no issue in replacing it with a NEW product (NOT a refurbished one) and the countdown times starts again.
    If any of you know some powerful political people, you need to ask them to start writing some new laws about this stuff unless these company’s police their own first and take care of these issues, but because they are making gobs of money off us, I doubt they will, so we have to force the issue and MAKE them do it though laws.
    To add:
    I'm not done with you Verizon.  If this next Bionic doens't work and the update in Nov. does not fix it I'm sending it back and going back to my original HTC and canceling the NEW 2 year contract.  Your CELL server is by far the best, the equipment is not.  And I will not and should not be held to a 2 year contact if you cannot provide me with a product that works.
    You really need to change your policies on your own before we the people make it a law.  Take the initiative and make it right.
    You want to be the best company out there, then don't follow Sprint or AT&T, be your own company and don't tell us on the phone that "All companies are doing that"...are you as lame as all the other companies out there or can you stand on your own and be the best?

    Update:
    The “CS supervisor” at Verizon still cannot arrange for me to take back $100 of worthless accessories if I send the 3G Bionic back…
    So, as the last poster stated, I did cancel my other two lines with Verizon and went to AT&T (I’ll save $400 per year) and canceled my Hot Spot (a saving of $360 per year); A loss to Verizon of $1,236 per year, so I will recoup my expenditures if I send the current 2nd 3G Bionic phone back.  I get 4 bars with AT&T and only 2 with Verizon at my location...hum...imagine that.
    I may just be a little cog in the big wheel but if enough of us did this, and we should, it would get their high and might attention that we customers are not going to let them Lie to us or as the CS super said, “miscommunicate” pertinent information that effects our buying/spending decision and drags us out past the 14 day limit.
    The final word on any update is that there isn’t one anyone can talk about or knows about, but it seems that all the techs at Verizon have the same problem with their droids; they activate the Airplane mode, then deactivate it and the 4G will come back.  That’s all dandy unless when you get disconnected from the internet it closes out important things you were in the process of doing…isn’t that special.  Very lame Verizon, very lame.
    I’ve done a lot of research on Version’s Androids and it appears that ALL of them since they’ve been out have this same problem with the flipping from 4 to 3G and other connectivity issues…so it’s not a MOTO thing unless MOTO has built a problem product…it’s Verizon’s towers or signals etc.  No one has figured it out and neither has Verizon or we wouldn’t have these issues.  
    And the "jargon" I get from Verizon that MOTO is being very “secretive” about the update is laughable...the real reason I believe they say this is because there isn’t one.  Every other company out there in the tech world that knows what the problems are let people know that they are going to release an update and the issues they are working to fix…the “it’s a secret” is a sly way of putting us off because they don’t have any freakin idea what the problem is and how to fix it. 
    I will say that WHEN this Bionic works like it is supposed to, it is awesome.  My biggest issue with this company is there deceitfulness and not telling us the true story up front and their lame 14 day limit...but I understand why that was put in place, their equipment only works for 14 days then takes a dump.  So I doubt they will ever change it back unless they grow a pair and start selling good equipment that works out of the box.
    They should be very up front about these issues BEFORE the customer signs on to a new two year service contract; miscommunications like these that have a bearing on money the customer is going to spend and contractual requirements they will be bound by…in other professional occupations, is considered a criminal offense and the sales people that commit this offense are dealt with by imprisonment and loss of licenses.
    Why should Verizon be treated any differently?
    So for future buyers, beware that when you sign on to a new 2 year contact and put out some bucks for this 3G Bionic, it will work sometimes but don't look to Verizon or MOTO for any solution, they don't have one.
    Enjoy the phone, when it works, but expect significant problems that WILL happen regularly (flipping back and forth from 4-3G, disconnects from the internet when you get notifications or when it flips from 4 to 3G, battery not charging when you are connected to your computer, etc.), returning the phone will not fix the problem because the problem is not known to Verizon or MOTO.  The techs will tell you do disconnect the battery, the SIM Card, get a new SIM card, restart and/or do a hard factory reset.  None of this works.
    And if you don’t want to get locked into another 2 year contact, understand that your 14 day count down starts the day they send the phone to you, not the day you activate it, so that means that you really only have 12 days to try it out before you return it the post mark on the fed ex return package cannot be one day past the 14th day or you will be on the hook.  And don’t forget to also return the accessories to store before the 14 day marked on the receipt about 12 inches from the top (it is not in bold so look very close at the date at the top also) if you buy them at a Verizon store.
    If you replace the SIM card, as I did, don’t let some rep that isn’t paying attention to your file notes tell you that your 14 day count down is later than sooner, they (the reps) get confused or whatever they do, but they look at SIM card activation and not when the phone was sent to you or for that matter when you activated it.
    I’ve been under a lot of “miscommunicated” information from the start with my first 14 day 3G bionic so although I’ve done a lot of ranting here, I hope my information helps others not get stuck or at least you will go into this with eyes VERY WIDE OPEN.  
    It has been 2 years since I looked into any new phone and I was not aware of all the NEW scams, trickery and deceptions Verizon has taught their reps and supervisors to use on us, but it makes sense, their equipment is so faulty they had to figure out how to keep the money coming in.  
    DO NOT TRUST VERIZON to be helpful, they are there ONLY to lock you into contacts and stick you with equipment that they and their manufacturer cannot and do not know how to fix. 

  • Does anyone know how many times a newly purchased product (MB Air 2014) can be exchanged within the 14 day period?

    Does anyone know how many times a newly purchased product (MB Air 2014) can be exchanged within the 14 day period? I feel like the MB Pro would be a better fit for me, so I wanted to exchange my Air for the Pro. But also, if I end up not liking the Pro and want to go back to an Air, would I be permitted to do so with another exchange? (all still within the 14 day window after purchase of course).
    Also, are there any specifics I need to know in order to return my product and get a new one?  Obvioulsy, I would be sure to remove all of my personal files, music, etc...but is there anything else I need to do?
    And lastly, and im sure this question is irritating to you Mac wiz kids out there, but are the two models im comparing really all that different?  I just cant make up my mind and would love some pointers/suggestions/tips/info to help me figure out what model is best for me (the apple employee that was helping me in the store was actually not that helpful at all, if they were I wouldnt have to ask this question on a discussion board).  I do tons of multimedia things and download and enjoy music, tv shows, movies, all that stuff..and I used to love to burn dvds and cds (obviously cant do that with the MB Air now which totally bummed me out ).  Which model does anyone think I should stick with?  Id greatly appreciate some opinions! Really tho, help me out ppls! I'd love some helpful advice! I sometimes have problems making big/important/expensive decisions lol  I just really want to make sure i am getting the best model for all of my daily tasks and all of the things i actually do regularly on my computer.
    Oh, last lastly- I cant afford anything more than a 13" STANDARD MacBook Pro at the moment...soooo the Retina display is unfortunately not an option for me.
    Which is also a big bummer.but i think i can get over it...or beg someone to loan me an extra $200 lol
    Someone....Annnnyyyone....Pleeeeease....Heeelllllllp....
    Thanks

    Just play with each and figure out which one you want. I believe they only allow 1 exchange unless it is a defect issue. You can always return the exchanged item and rebuy what you want if they will not allow you to do multiple exchanges.
    But again, you need to really figure out which one you want.

  • Is the "512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage" on the new mac worth the extra cost?  I am comparing with a refurb with better specs (faster CPU, larger hard drive) and from what I undersand the PCIe flash storage is the big differentiator in cost.

    hello - i am considering two macbook pros
    NEW - http://store.apple.com/us/buy-mac/macbook-pro?product=ME294LL/A&step=config#
    REFURB - http://store.apple.com/us/product/G0ML1LL/A/refurbished-macbook-pro-27ghz-quad-c ore-intel-i7-with-retina-display
    The refurb actually has a faster processor and a larger hard drive.  From what I understand, the big difference in cost is the new macbook pro contains "512GB PCIe-based Flash Storage" versus the refurb "768GB Flash Storage".
    Is the PCIe flash storage really worth the extra cost (and smaller size)?
    PS - Also I believe the brand new one has 2 GB graphics memory as opposed to 1 GB graphics memory.  I don't really care about that as much as I won't be doing a lot of video editing or gaming.

    Some are some are not. Otherwise Apple has a ton of Mac's sitting around that have been returned by customers under their 14 day No Questions Asked return policy.
    But they not just Returned and Resold. They go back to Apple, checked out (Tested) any parts that are not up to spec replaced and then repackaged in a plain white box to be sold as refurbs.

    I just download and install itunes 10.5 and it worked good the first days but since yesterday it crashed up, and everytime i start it it crashes again and logged me out each time. it can´t acces my itunes account. I´m using snow leopard the last version. What can i do to solve this problem and and continue using my itunes normally?

    Try doing it in a WIndows Safe mode - Restart computer and hit F8 key right after your see BIOS check and choose "Safe mode with networking"
    Do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
    If that does not work, whilst in safe mode, download Free Malwarebyte software from CNET's Download.com.  Install, update virus definition then perform a full scan.  Remove if it did find some viruses or trojans.  Restart computer.
    Back to regular windows, do the SFC /SCANNOW again.
    If that doesnot work, check to see if your Hard drive has errors or bad sectors
    GO START BUTTON /COMPUTER, right mouse click OS (C:) and choose "Properties"
    Choose "Tools" tab and under error checking, click "Check Now".
    Make sure "Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors" is checked and click start.
    Restart windows will perform the above task to fix errors  This may take hours depends on how big is your Hard Drive
    Good Luck!!.

  • How do I enable the big green battery and the plug icon? (R61 - Win7 64)

    I know that this subject is pretty old, but maybe somebody will answer.
    I have a reverse problem from:
    http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T61-and-prior-T-series-ThinkPad/How-do-I-remove-the-big-green-battery-an...
    I do not have this green battery and the plugin icon, instead I have gray battery like this:
    Strange thing is that it is resistant to any changes in Power Manager Advanced Options - whatever I check: hide, show, small icon, big icon - it stays as it is.
    I use Win7 64bit.
    Any ideas?
    Moderator comment: New thread split from the above link. Subject and post edited to reflect new content.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes, that previous page button is wonderful, isn't it LOL. It has gotten me many times. Some text editors are merciful and will preserve your work if you immediately hit the back button. The Lenovo Forum editor does not but it does autosave your draft ever so often
    Concerning Power Manager: First, let's make sure of the obvious. Have you tried removing and re-installing your battery and making sure it is making good contact?
    Assuming your battery is not the problem,
    go ahead and uninstall "Hotkeys."
    Hotkeys version 3.81.0100 currently includes 5 separate components which you will see in your list of programs:
     - On Screen Display
     - Thinkpad Full Screen Magnifier
     - Lenovo System Interface Driver
     - Lenovo Auto Scroll Utility
     - Lenovo Patch Utility
    Use Control Panel and make sure to un-install all of these. (You may never have installed Hotkeys. If so, skip this step Or, if you have installed a previous version which does not include all of these components, just un-install any of these you find).
    Next, use Control Panel to un-install "Power Manager," and "Lenovo Power Management Driver." Yes, "Power Manager" is different from "Lenovo Power Management Driver." (It sounds like like you may never have installed "Lenovo Power Management Driver" so just skip that one if you don't see it in your list of programs.)
    Tip: Older versions of "Power Manager" may be called "Thinkpad Power Manager" or "Lenovo Power Manager." We're now up to version 6.36.
    Reboot as prompted during the un-installation process.
    Now, go to the Lenovo Drivers and Software page here and enter your type/model number.
    Install the following software in this order:
    (1) First, install "Lenovo Power Management Driver" from the Power Management section.
    (2) Next, install "Hotkey Features Integration" from the Software and Utility section.
    (3) Finally, install "Power Manager" itself. (Version 6.36 you see there is the latest version).
    Reboot as instructed during the installation process.
    As for the Lenovo "anti-shock feature,"  install "ThinkVantage Active Protection System" from the Thinkvantage Technology section
    That should do it. Let us know how you do.

  • The Big Sync

    Ok, so this question will go somewhat beyond iCal, but this seems like the most appropriate place to start.
    I am guessing many people find themselves in the same situation as I'm in, with calendar and contact information spread across multiple applications. Specifically, I have contacts in Google and Yahoo and I mostly use Google Calendars. I would like to use Address Book and iCal on my Mac and have everything sync. I also have an iPhone that is currently set up with my Google Calendars and Contacts.
    I have found a product called Spanning Sync:
    http://spanningsync.com/
    http://www.googletutor.com/2008/10/21/spanning-sync-rocks/
    And there is an article pertaining to Yahoo and Google Contacts with Address Book:
    http://www.ehow.com/how2310265google-contacts-apples-address-book.html
    Before I just start mucking around, I thought I'd see if anyone on the forum has experience with one or more aspect of what I'd like to do. Thanks in advance for any help or advice!

  • Why the big box around my "replied" text?

    I was replying to an email the other day and instead of just having my text appear as it usually does, this time I had a big box around it with an X in the upper left-hand corner, allowing me to delete it in its entirety. In addition to that, my reply wasn't in a different color text as I've set it up to be - it was in black.
    I'd never seen this before. Can you tell me what this was about?
    Thanks.
    Chip

    Yes, I saw this yesterday on my wife's macbook pro. I don't think she did anything out of the ordinary for it to appear - just typing in a reply to an email. My solution was to convert the message to plain text. But why did it appear in the first place?
    There have been other messages mentioning the "box with the X", but these have been black-filled boxes that occur when sending a document from another application to Mail, or Mailing an event from iCal etc. In my wife's case, and I think Chip's too, there was no attachment involved, just typing in text.
    Anyone?
