Turn off mail animations & grey color variations

The bouncing messages are making me sea sick. How do I turn these off?
And headers. Would it be so hard to keep the From: and Subject: designagions. And just keep it one color. Why can't I see the Reply To: or the From in the same color? This is not cool, it's bloody inconvenient.
What Apple has repeated is the Coke Classic mistake. In an effort to win the portable devices market it is ******* off its desktop market.
It is very fast. That is lovely but the seemingly superficial changes are needlessly irritating and time consuming, and not superficial at all.

Are you referring to the new Notifications (in the upper right corner of your screen)?
If so, go to System Preferences > Notifications and drag Mail down to the "NOT in Notif. Center" Category. After that, make sure the window to the right has absolutely nothing checked:
That will stop it.

  • How can I turn off Mail's Compose and Reply animations in fullscreen?

    Does anyone know how to turn off the animated opening of a "compose new mail" window when in fullscreen mode?
    I'm using Mail 6.5 under Mountain Lion.  When I'm in fullscreen mode and I either compose a new email, or reply to an email, the new mail window springs up from the bottom of the screen in an animated way.  I would prefer it to just appear.
    I was able to disable this animation when not in fullscreen mode by typing from a Terminal prompt:
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableReplyAnimations -bool TRUE
    However, I cannot find a way to disable it while I'm in fullscreen mode.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The only gesture that is stand is the two finger tap the goes to mission control.  You can turn that off in System Preferences > mouse.
    Also check the second column in System Preferences > Mission control > Show Desktop:
    Set to "-" as a secondary click here could cause the issue.

  • How can I turn off mail forwarding to another email address

  • So, CAN I turn off the printer's color management? Pixma Pro-100.

    So, I am trying to turn off the color management function for the Pro-100...
    On my Windows desktop, I use Photoshop to print with Canson Rag 210, color profile installed, allow photoshop to manage colors and print a beautiful, perfect print with the Mark 9000. Now, I have the Pixma Pro-100 and using the exact same settings, I print wirelessly with my laptop, and I get these dark, red/orange hued prints that are atrocious.
    I should mention the same exact photograph printed between setups ALWAYS prints better with the Mark 9000 and my desktop. However, when using my laptop and the Mark 9000... Crap. Laptop and Pixma Pro-100... Crap. What is my MAC doing that my desktop is not?! How can identical settings print such drastic results? Photoshop does warn me (newer version on my MAC vs. Windows) to turn off the printer's color management in the printer's settings, but I do not see that option. Maybe I'm missing it? How do I do that? I'm thinking it may help!

    Have you tried printing from the MacBook using Canon Print Studio Pro or letting printer manage colors? I know this doesn't specifically answer your question, but PSP is designed to handle the PS/printer interface.
    Download PSP 1.3.5 from the Canon support site.

  • Turn off transition animations?

    Is there a way to turn off transition animations? Specifically for Preview!
    The way Preview goes into fullscreen is super distracting and disorienting. (your entire desktop slides away while preview slides into the center moving in the opposite direction) The main problem for me is that it always lags and freezes midway through the transition, which convinces me that the transitions cause problems.
    I'd like to get rid of all transitions, but mainly preview.

    Try hitting Escape or just go to View –> Exit Full Screen. Don't think there's any solution for all programs, you probably have to do it for every individual program that cause the freezing.

  • Mac Mail - How to turn off the animated "boxes"

    Best place to put this question hopefully ? As they seem to have gotten rid of the dedicated "Mail" forum here.
    In mail, how do you turn off them outlines/boxes that magically appear around a whole paragraph or number, etc.. when your mouse gets close ?
    Its so annoying, and used to not do this. I am sure some people find this cute, useful and cool. I find it a nuisance since it messes me up when trying to copy and paste text here and there and structurally manipulate emails. My workflow just finds it "in the way" all the time and I never actually use what its purpose is. So I was hoping there was a way to turn it off so it doesn't do that.

    Well you can always select 'plain text' from the format menu (or button in toolbar if installed) but of course you will lose formatting for the whole document.

  • How do I turn off MAIL application as DEFAULT ?

    Can anyone suggest how I can TURN OFF the MAIL application from opening as an automatic default whenever I click on "contact us" on a web page, so that MAIL does NOT automatically open ? I prefer nothing to open automatically ! If anything I'd like a dialog box asking me what application I want to use.
    WHY ? Because I have great problems with MAIL, after a disastrous failed installation (and removal) of Safari 4 in 2009. Since then Safari works fine but I never use MAIL as when I do it crashes my whole system every time so I ignore it totally. However, when a web site's link "more info" triggers MAIL to open, I am lead down the merry and frustrating (!!!) path of having to recover from a crash. I'd like to avoid this once and for ever. Any ideas ?
    THANKS !

    Niel, That's exactly what I want to do: change or turn off the default email client so MAIL (apple's mail program) does not open by default. But I can't find a way of doing that, certainly not in "system preferences". I used spotlight to find "RCDefaultApp" and nothing exists by that name, or RC Default et al...

  • My password lock cannot be turned off (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot set to "simple" password (4 digits) for the same reason (button greyed out)

    Today, I got a message from my iphone 4 telling me that my password was expired and that I had to change it.
    Now I am forced to enter a 8 character long password and I cannot turn off the password lock (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot change to "simple" code.
    I am so upset that I am considering throwing the bloody thing to the rubbish bin
    Can you help?

    When I get Pictures in a email I get duplicates because it is titled 33 (example) pictures for you and it pulls up every grouping of 33 (example) pictures from previous emails. It loads every grouping and is not necessary. can I turn this feature off?

    You can try turning off "Organize by conversation" in the View menu.  Also consider using "Classic Layout" in Mail Preferences, Viewing.

  • Turning off "Chroma Blur" introducing color artifacts? (Aperture 1.5)

    I seeing what appears to be color artifacts being introduced when turning OFF chroma blur. I have two images posted here that you can use to see what I'm talking about. They're both crops of the same image with and without chroma blur (looks specifically in the text written on the side of the plane - you might have to zoom in to see the "magenta" colors bleeding between the letters on the version without chroma blur). If I view the original raw file in "Preview" the image is clean and looks like the one with Chroma Blur turned on. Is this a known issue?
    Images: http://johnterrell.smugmug.com/gallery/1968434/1/100160466
    (The keywords below the image will tell you the one with and without chroma blur)
    Thoughts?

    I seeing what appears to be color artifacts being
    introduced when turning OFF chroma blur. > blur).... If I view the original > raw file in "Preview"
    the image is clean and looks like the one with Chroma
    Blur turned on. Is this a known issue?
    Certain features you are only going to see when the image is viewed within Aperture at 100%. This is similar to ACR, DPP and Lightroom.
    You need to view the image at 100% to see the effect of noise reduction. So, it's not an issue, it's just the way the program works.
    Chroma Blur eliminates or lessens chroma noise so it makes sense that turning it off would lead to noise and artifacts in images.

  • Turn off Unnecessary Animations iOS7

    My god it takes me so long to navagate through my phone now.  Does anyone know of a way to turn off these fluffy animations???  I just want my phone to unlock, I don't care about watching the tiles fly in.  In addition is there anyway to change the folders back, what use is a folder if i have to wait for it to load through an animation and then scroll through pages of tiles.  Frustrated!

    Finally put in 7.0.3 weeks after most of the rest of you had this discussion.
    I swear, like a complete goon, I sat here for 10 minutes trying to swipe the icons for the apps, upward. Finally dawned on me to swipe the 'screen shot' of the app upward.
    As I just posted on Facebook, I wonder how my 2012 Hyundai Elantra is going to get along with my iPhone 4S now that I've updated the OS. I'm guessing little or no difference, but that car is pretty stupid in doing some of the clever things it does.

  • Cellular Data turned off, Data Roaming greyed out and shows as on

    I've googled the **** out of this and still can't find the answer so here goes.
    If I have both Cellular Data and Data Roaming ON and then turn Cellular Data OFF then the Data Roaming label and ON/OFF toggle both turn grey and light blue respectively, but the Data Roaming still shows as ON (in light blue not the regular blue colour). Does this mean that Data Roaming is actually still on? If not, then why doesn't it show as OFF or are we supposed to interpret the fact that it is greyed out to mean that it is actually off when it shows ON?

    You're welcome.
    I don't see what difference it makes. Cellular Data off means cellular data is off. Someone who is roaming internationally with Data Roaming turned on wants data turned off completely for a period of time can turn Cellular Data off without turning Data Roaming off. When turning Cellular Data back on, Data Roaming is already on.
    An iPhone can exchange SMS for certain with Cellular Data turned off, but I don't believe the same applies to MMS.
    Having 3G network access on or off has 3G network access on or off only. The same amount of data will be exchanged with 3G access off only at a slower rate. If you download the same photo via a fast broadband connection vs via a much slower old dial-up connection, the same amount of data will be downloaded only slower via the dial-up connection.

  • How to turn off window animations?

    How do you turn off the window animations in Mountain Lion. It feels slow and I can't start typing or deleting things until the window is finished animated. For example when in adobe light room, when I hit the delete key to delete a photo I then have to wait until the animation stops before comfirming the delete. In Snow Leopard it was seamless, much faster and it kept track of what I had typed even if the window was not up yet. Thanks for any help

  • Turn off window animation

    Firefox animates tab and window creations. For example, on OS X, a new window is animated to grow from the center of the screen.
    Tab animation can be turned off by setting the "browser.tabs.animate" property to false. How can I do the same for windows?
    Thanks!
    My setup: OS X 10.9.2 with Firefox 28

    Thanks, you are right! I used the "secrets" app to disable the opening animation, now I'm happy :). Great answer.

  • HT3576 Turn OFF mail notifications in iOS 7.1

    I would like to receive calendar & reminder notifications, but no other ones.  I have turned off notifications as best I could for each of my email accounts, but still get a notification every time I get email.  Started with iOS 7.1 update. 
    The only notifications I have turned on, as far as I can tell is calendar and reminders.  These I would like to keep.  What do I have to do to turn off notifications for every single email I get?  I think all these notifications are killing my battery life.
    Suggestions? 
    Thanks.

    Given that voice control for me at least is the most annoying feature that any phone could ever posess this presents a big problem.
    Now I have to turn on flight mode when my iPhone is in my pocket, so essentially I have a phone that can no longer function as a phone.
    After some research it would seem that this feature is still available on the iPhone 5, so this is probably another one of Apple's moves to push users to the next generation, but for me it has had the opposite affect, personally i'm waiting for the new HTC one to come out at the end of this month.
    Bye bye iPhone.
