Trouble reading my AOL e-mail page.

I use Firefox to access my AOL and Verizon accounts. Approx 2 months ago, after an upgrade from an earlier version of Firefox to the current version, I began to experience issues with accessing my AOL e-mail page. The page displays in a very tiny, almost impossible to read, font size. I cannot locate anyway to correct this and make the page display in the normal size as it did previously. Accessing the same page thru IE produces normal results, so I am led to believe that it is not an AOL issue.
All other pages, websites, etc, display in normal sizes, both on AOL and Verizon.
Anyone have any ideas, thoughts or suggestions on this?

Have you tried [[Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages|Firefox's zoom feature]]? This will help increase the size of web pages, which you may have inadvertently decreased. ''(Firefox remembers that setting for future visits.)''
* To make things bigger, press '''Ctrl''' and '''&#43''' at the same time.
* To make things smaller, press '''Ctrl''' and '''-''' at the same time.
* To reset the size back to normal, press '''Ctrl''' and '''0''' at the same time.
You can also use the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. add-on to change the default zoom level for all websites at once. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
'''Using NoSquint:'''
#After installing NoSquint, make sure you have the Add-on Bar displayed:
#*Right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
#Click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
#*You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but it's not recommended that you go higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.

  • AOL: deleted mail on laptop is not reflected in iTouch mail

    My wife will read HER AOL e-mail on her iTouch when she is out at the office. Then later when she is home she will read her AOL e-mail via her MacBook and THEN delete messages from AOL via her main account. Yet, when she updates the mail on her iTouch the list of e-mails visible on the iTouch does not change (sync?) to reflect the deletions that she made on her MacBook. Plus it says she has something like nearly 100 messages to download?!?
    I have set-up my sbcglobal account to remove e-mails from their server ONLY when it is downloaded onto my G4 at home - all other remotely accessed e-mail stays on the server until such time as I read those saved e-mails from home and then they are expunged but saved on my computer at home. I assume there is a similar setting for AOL: that is - keep everything on their server but only REMOVE it from their server when it is downloaded at home.
    Or is this more of a fundamental set-up issue with the mail account on the iTouch?

    You are correct in assuming that you can set the iPod to leave messages on the server. I do it all of the time.
    To change the e-mail settings got to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Account Name > Advanced. You will see a setting "Delete from server" option that you can set to what you need.
    This is correct as long as you are dealing with a pop account. If AOL mail is imap, then deleting items on the touch results in inbox items being deleted on the server.
    Mail syncing on the touch via iTunes does not sync messages, however. Your wife will have to delete messages on her touch after she reads them. The only way around this, at least currently, is to use Apple's Mobile Me system.

  • On firefox, netzero mail page font too small, aol ok. How do I change font to bigger so I can read mail?

    A couple of days ago, I was using Firefox and reading my email on Netzero.com when the letters suddenly went to very very small and I have trouble reading my email. I switched to the email on AOL.com and the letters were of normal size as usual. Netzero says I should open Mozilla Firefox to click "tools", "options", "content", to fix the font size. But when I click the brown "Firefox" window, I do not see any of the items Netzero says to click. Do you have any suggestions as to what Netzero is talking about or how I can increase the size of the print so I can read my email on Netzero while I am using Firefox?

    Not an ideal solution, but some users change the setting in: System Preferences>Displays, select the Scaled button and choose another resolution.
    If you are within 14 days of purchased you can return the computer for a refund if you dislike it that much as Apple do have a good returns policy (so long as you purchased from Apple and not a reseller).

  • Does Apple mail have trouble with AOL E-mail addresses?

    When I send E-mail to an AOL E-mail address at least 50% of the time I get this annoying “Delivery Notification” failure crap messages back.
    I just copy and paste my original message and I keep sending it until I don't get that crappie message back anymore.
    Does anyone else have this problem? If so, did you figure out how to fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    I had a bit of trouble sending to AOL in the past. It seemed most often when my email addy had the word MAC in it.
    My ISP is Macace, and they would frequently get returned. If I used my throwaway yahoo account all was fine. I thought it was somehow linked to how mail.app did things so I went in and did a test via webmail. The email still got blocked.
    Do AOL not like Macs? Who knows what is going on. They have a Mac version of their software so it shouldn't be.

  • Anyone having trouble connecting to aol mail? everytime I sign in it freezes and i have to click force quit and re log on.

    Anyone having trouble connecting to aol mail? Everytime I sign in it freezes and I have to click on force quit.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    # You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    # Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    You should be able to uninstall that AOL toolbar extension while running in the Firefox SafeMode.

  • Yahoo e-mail page is distorted and hard to read (once in a while its OK) - box does not extend to the right side making e-mail info hard to read. Info displayed in the reading panel is OK.

    When I open the Yahoo email page, the box does not extend across the screen and the script is distorted making it hard to read the source, subject etc. The reading panel info reads OK. All other pages of Yahoo are not distorted.

    Many of your points are totally legitimate.
    This one, however, is not:
    …To put it another way, the design of the site seems to be geared much more towards its regular users than those the site is supposedly trying to "help"…
    The design and management of the forums for more than five years have driven literally dozens of the most valuable contributors and "regulars" away from the forums—permanently.
    The only conclusion a prudent, reasonable person can draw from this state of affairs is that Adobe consciously and deliberately want to kill these forums by attrition—without a the PR hit they would otherwise take if they suddenly just shut them down.

  • Safari quits if I save, delete or move mail on AOL web mail. How do I fix?

    After Apple's latest suggested update, I have been having problems with AOL web mail. Safari quits when I try to save mail, move mail, delete mail! I would like to know how to fix this! I had no problems BEFORE the update! I just updated these items on 1/11 and there appears to be a conflict, but I don't know what it is or how to fix it....these are the updates I did.....DVD playback update 4.6.1, Quicktime 7.0.4, itunes 6.0.2, Mac OS X update 10.4.4. I emptied the cache, cleared the history and removed ALL cookies...these did not help me. I hope someone can help me!

    I am having trouble with AOL, too. I have uninstalled it, removed all preferences and reinstalled it. The problem I am having is I cannot send mail or ever write an e-mail. I get a completly blank page not showing anything and then am kicked off of AOL. If I start the computer in safe mode and then try and write an e-mail everything is fine. After I restart my computer after having it in the safe mode and write an e-mail everything is fine. If I turn my computer off for several hours or a day and then logon to AOL and try and write an e-mail I get the blank page and am kicked off. Why is this?

  • HT1277 My Mail page no longer receives or sends mail. This happens on occasion and then returns.  This never happens to my husbands page with whom I share the computer.

    I have  a MacOSX version 10.7.4.
    My Mail page for no reason decides to not send or receive my emails.  I have two email addresses and for no reason they just stop and I am forced to go to my aol page on Safari.  Then after a month or so they appear back on my Mail page.
    Nothing seems to cause.  I can just open my page and there is a z beside the address.
    I have tried to fix it by reconfiguring my email account, but it does not accept it.
    Thanks for any help

    Hello,
    In Mail's Window Menu, choose Connection Doctor, any red dots for status, if so what is the exact message?
    Then click the Show Details button & Check again.
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it, or delete it and start over.
    You may have multiple entries.
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, enter the part after the @ sign in the search bar, hit enter
    The Password rejection can confuse people since it's a catch all meaning...
    This Password, Username, Authentication method... is not recognized on this Port to this Server, more than one entry in Keychain for each in/out entry, or a server end problem.
    If using a browser to login via WebMail works it's not Name or Password, but one of the other ones.

  • How can aol e-mail be hacked into with the security system through Foxfire?

    My aol e-mail was/is being "hacked" when I used someone else's laptop to check my e-mail while I was in Canada. How can this happen if I have "security" through Firefox/Avast? I have finally opened up a new e-mail system with comcast but what can I do in the mean time?

    It looks like you are using a IMAP mail account, a protocol used by most email providers nowadays. Read -> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Message_Access_Protocol
    The main feature of IMAP is the sync of all the changes you do on your mail account. If you want to keep your mails on one Mac, have a look at this site -> http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3908294

  • I use AOL web mail and cannot access my mail box since upgrading to Firefox 3.6.13

    I am a long term user of both Firefox and AOL web mail. I can now load the une=secure front page of AOL but cannot access the pages of my mailbox. AOL's error message suggests adjusting the privacy setting of IE, which I'm not using, or checking that my firewall, which has never been a problem, does not exclude

  • Want to redirect my e-mail from aol to mail in safari.

    Hi everyone! please can anyone help me, I want to redirect my e-mail from aol to mail in safari. How do I do it please? I don't have broadband yet, I'm looking into that with aol, they say in their info we cant have it for OSX but I know some of you have it and it's fine.

    I can't get onto aol using safari, is this
    because im on dial up only?
    No, it is because AOL is in transition to a free service & the web mail portal (the web page that directs you to the sign-in screen) is currently poorly configured. Try instead going to https://my.screenname.aol.com/ & entering your AOL screen name & password there. Once that is accepted, you will be able to get to your web mail by clicking on the "Mail" text at the top of the welcome page.
    Or, as others suggest, you can use Apple's Mail application to avoid all this.

  • Not all AOl e-mails appear each time I select e-mail icon

    I just bought the Iphone 3G and I seem to be having problems with my AOL e-mails that are pushed to the phone. Sometimes when I select the mail icon all of my AOL e-mails are there but other times, only 2 show up and there is a message that there are 95 e-mails and 2 unread. I then have to select this line and the e-mails start downloading. Shouldn't all of my undeleted e-mails appear when the mail icon is selected and then when selected, any new e-mails would appear. Why would I have to select this line (95 e-mails and 2 unread) to see all of the e-mails that I have read and not deleted.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I had this problem also. Because I was moving over 200 emails, I couldn't not drag them one by one.  I followed th eadvice to "archive mailbox" someone here suggested.  That works, but the emails are then unformatted and hard to read.  I also dragged all the emails after selecting all, into a Pages document.  Then I saved.  Then I dragged th esaved doc into my burn folder.  I burned th edoc and the mailbox archive onto a CD.  After checking that it was there and useable, I deleted the document on my Mac, and then deleted all the emails from the mailbox.  I was doing this to protect thr privacy of some medical emails while freeing up space on my Mac's harddrive.  I hope that helps everyone.

  • I have trouble reading in Black and White. changing the background color for all

    I have trouble reading in Black and White. On my PC I can change the background  color (and I am not just talking about for a word or pages document) but for eveything so anything that was a white background I can put in what ever color I like but it still prints in Black and white.. I can't see how to do this on the Macbook air. on my PC I do this in display. Sort of putting colored film over the screen I dont know what to do. Can anyone help?

    Hello Floridamacbookpro,
    You may be interested in the 'invert colors' Accessibility feature. This can be invoked by pressing the Control, Option, Command, and 8 keys on your keyboard. This only affects your display, and does not have any affect on printed items.
    Mac OS X displays inverted image colors (white on black, reverse type)
