When I type a new email the letters show in two different colours as below
bdhijklmnpqru are in a purple colour and all other letters are in black
Thanks

Thanks. Too many threads, I got confused. I found this information in an older article, so I'm not sure it is completely current, but you could give it a try to see whether it helps.
To try disabling Thunderbird's use of hardware acceleration, you can use the "Config Editor" to switch two preferences.
To open the Config Editor, see: [[Config Editor]]
(1) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''layers''' and pause while Thunderbird filters. Then double-click '''layers.acceleration.disabled''' to switch it from false to true.
(2) In the search box that appears above the list, type or paste '''gfx''' and pause while Thunderbird filters. Then double-click '''gfx.direct2d.disabled''' to switch it from false to true.
You might not need both of these.

  • The full content of my email messages are no longer downloaded

    I can see everything except the full content of the mail ???
    can anybody help me what is suddenly happening?

    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Are there two different Core i7 2.0 Ghz CPU's for the 15" MBP?

    I noticed on Geekbench that some people are getting Intel Core i7-2635QM @ 2.00 GHz CPU's and some are getting Intel Core i7-2620QM @ 2.00 GHz CPU's.
    Same clock speed but different performance outcomes. The 2620 chip comes in around 6800-7000 in performance while 2635 gets 8800-9000 which is much closer to the i7-2720QM chip.
    Intel does offer both 2620 and 2635 CPU's and I'm trying to figure out if different chips are being sent from Apple or if it is a case where some people chose the wrong CPU in Geekbench. However, wouldn't Geekbench automatically select the CPU that is is testing.
    Please chime in and let me know. Below are the links to the tests.
    2635QM chip, http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/search?q=2635&commit=Search
    2620QM chip, http://browse.geekbench.ca/geekbench2/search?q=94245B3640C91C81+&commit=Search
    I also noticed people with 64-bit software of Geekbench are getting higher scores, obviously.

    You probably saw bench for the 13" Core i7 MacBook Pro that use an Intel® Core™ i7-2620M processor, which is a dual core (not quad core) core i7 @ 2.7GHz.

  • Since 10.5.6 upgrade, email messages are garbled text

    Hi,
    This problem seems to have started with the latest upgrade. My email messages are coming in with garbled text. This happens in my Yahoo account where I will go to the mail website and the text there will be fine. It's only in the mail program.
    Thanks in advance,
    Pete.

    Hi,
    I have the same issue.
    Although the mails seems to have been downloaded correctly parts of the parts of the message mime information is displayed as part of the mail body.
    The only thing that helps is to rebuild the index of the specific mailbox (inbox in my case).
    BTW: Mail of iPhone OS does NOT have this problem. Generally it handles mails MUCH better than the real OS X. Strange, isn't it.

  • HT201320 lost the ability to Send new emails from my iphone

    Can you give us the exact error message? The one you provided doesn't make sense.

  • I am unable to create a new email message when I connect to the internet through google

    I am unable to create a 'new email message'when I connect to the bigpond.com webmail through the internet from my ipad2.

    Try this. Settings>Safari>Block Pop-Ups>Off.
    I have an Exchange account that behaved similarly to what you are describing. I finally realized that I had to allow pop ups in order to access my mail on the server.

  • My signature is not appearing the new email message?

    Can anyone tell me how I inset my signature automatically into the new email message?  I have put in signatures to my preferences as told to, but they are not apprearing in my pop up signature in the new message.

    If you're sure you have added the signature to the account in the Signatures tab of the Mail preferences window, quit and relaunch Mail.

  • I'm embarrassed to ask this: when I click to initiate a new email message in the "From" box it automatically chooses the wrong email address (I have three but use one mainly). How can I get the right choice to appear automatically?

    I'm embarassed to ask this: when I click on the new mail icon to write a new email message, in the box "FROM" appears the wrong email address: I have three but mainly use one. How can I correct this so that the right email address appears in the "FROM" box?

    I assume this is Apple Mail. Try this:
    Preferences > Accounts > your-first-account
    Select Outgoing Mail Server of account/name you wish to use and check Use only this server
    Repeat for other accounts.

  • Tried to install a new game but got error message "You can't open the application "XIII Install" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  I have since read that Yosemite doesn't have the program. What can I do?

    Tried to install a new game that I bought (Xiii) for my MBP. All system req have been met and exceeded, however when trying to install it I get an error message saying "You can’t open the application “XIII Install” because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."
    I have since read online that the operating software Yosemite has got rid of PowerPC applications, meaning I can't install my new game. 
    Is there anything simple that I can do to get this game to work. I'll be gutted if not as I have opened the game therefore the shop will not give a full refund, I'm sure .
    Regards
    Simon

    A lot longer ago than that. PowerPC apps haven't been supported since Lion, 10.7.x.
    You may have just purchased the game, but the developers obviously haven't kept up to date with the requirements for newer versions of the Mac OS.
    You have three options, depending on how old your Mac is.
    1) If it were ever able to boot directly to Snow Leopard, you could create a separate partition and install SL onto that partition. Make sure to turn on the option during the installation to install Rosetta. That is OS X's PPC emulator.
    2) If your Mac is too new to install Snow Leopard, then you can purchase and install Snow Leopard Server within a VM, such as Parallels, VirtualBox, or Vmware.
    3) Use a separate older Mac for running outdated software.

    My Small Business Router has been sending me email messages. This is a RVS-4000 version 1.
    I just want to understand what my Router is emailing me or telling me...
    The last message I received from my RVS-4000 was:
       Oct 30 13:44:09 - IPSEC EVENT: KLIPS device ipsec0 shut down.
    IPSEC EVENT sounds important. Whatever it is... And what is a KLIPS device ipsec0 shutdown????
    I have Log Levels 0-3 selected...
    Log Level
    Setting which level log Router should recorder. Level from 0 ~ 7 means:
    0: LOG_EMERG(system is unusable)
    1: LOG_ALERT(action must be taken immediately)
    2: LOG_CRIT(critical conditions)
    3: LOG_ERR(error conditions)
    4: LOG_WARNING(warning conditions)
    5: LOG_NOTICE(normal, but significant, condition)
    6: LOG_INFO(informational message)
    7: LOG_DEBUG(debug-level message)
    So, when I get any messages... I'm a little concerned. Because the RVS-4000 thinks it's an Error or better.
    What I would like from Cisco is the meaning of all level 3 or lower email messages my Router can send to me. So, that I can take the appropriate actions.
    I know Cisco inhered these Small Business Routers. When they bought Linksys. However, they have not discontinued them totally and they are still for sale. And Cisco has released a new version 2 of the same Router. So I believe Cisco should support them as well.
    Yes, I'm a pain to Cisco. However, I think you understand I'm being scared by my Routers messages to me... And would like some relief.

    Great suggestions. Problems is this is not the forum for your "wish list" as Apple does not read these USER forums.

  • Email messages are jumbled out of chronological ordr

    When looking at my current new email messages on the email list, as I open one and go back to the original  list...I cannot easily find the one that I just looked at because it has been placed way down in the abyss of old emails. All messages are out of chronological order. Help fix this. I have put up with this for 2 months. I only have comcast email account, not the tv service of.  AC

  • Addressing new email messages

    Hi, when I type in the first letter of someone I want to email it comes up with a massive and I mean massive list of addresses that I have apparently used frequently in the past.  This is on each letter ofthe alphabet.  I only have a few saved contacts and the odd other address that I use frequently that I would expect it to remember and bring up as a possibility I want to send a message to.
    My question is how do I delete these addresses, at the moment I have to have a new message open, put in say "a", then click on the cross to the right, it asks me am I sure I want to delete as I used it frequently I put yes and off it goes, but this is for each address, takes a very long time, I've had several sessions at it and only managed to delete a litte of addresses starting with a.
    How can I delete more at a time please?  Any ideas would be appreciated.  I think they all came from my account being scammed at some point, but I should have that sorted now, just need to get rid of these addresses in case they are being used to "send emails from my acount".

    I never upgraded to the current version of BT Yahoo! as the classic one seemed more reliable. I can tell you how to proceed in Classic Mail, hoping there's something similar in the new version.
    Click the Contacts tab in webmail; this should bring up a list of contacts in the left-hand pane (quite a long list for you it seems!) If you check more than one of them a message "X Contacts selected" appears in the main pane; clicking Delete removes all the selected contacts in one go. To remove all contacts at once, check the box at the top to select them all.
    You can click the white star next to this message if you think it was helpful.

  • After Yosemite, a new email message causes Mail to hang

    After upgrading to Yosemite last evening, opening a "compose new message" window in Mail causes Mail to hang (crash?). I'm able to receive email messages, but  I can only send messages by booting my MacBook Air in "Safe" mode. (Opening Mail in "safe" mode does not keep Mail from crashing when I open a "compose new message" window.)
    I haven't been able to get far enough to see if trying to "send" a message will make Mail crash. Just opening a "compose new message" window and trying to put the cursor in the address line, subject line, or message area will cause Mail to spin away into infinity.
    I do use three Mail add-ins: MailTags, Mail Act-On and the Daylite Mail Assistant; but all of those are the most current versions and their developers claim that they are compatible with Yosemite.

    Welcome to Yosemite beta. I havent been able to use Mail since I "upgraded" 4 days ago. Apparently the solution is to wait until Apple figures out what went wrong.
