What would make an email received show a bunch or A s in boxes? Gerald's is doing this but mine gets the same email and it all shows up.

In Mail 6.3 on 15" Macbook pro, an email received show a bunch of A's in square boxes. On an Identical Laptop, everything shows up fine. I cant find any configuration differences, but I may not know where to look. Any help out there?

These symbols are from Apple's Last Resort font, and indicate that a major problem has arisen with the OS's ability to use the basic system fonts.Boot up cmd-r and re-install OS X, This will be an install in place and should not effect any of your own files.
EDIT: But if it's only happening on one email and not throughout the system, it may be the email that was sent, itself having a font that can't be read.

Can you set up a new I Tunes account, but still use the same email address, as having problems with it keep telling me it has been disabled, no matter what I do to chnage the passwords, I haven't used the account since 2010?

Hi eddinchina,
You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
You may use the same email address with both accounts.

1st generation ipod. When I plug it into my computer an image of a disk w/a magnifying glass appears (disk scan). Each time I plug it in it does the same thing and it wont show up on my computer.

I have a 1st generation ipod, which I love. When I plug it into my computer an image of a disk with a magnifying glass appears (disk scan). When it finishes the scan it always checks out. I then restart it and all looks fine. Each time I plug it in to the computer it does the same thing and it wont show up on my computer. The other strange thing is all of the songs are gone from the ipod but the disk space is still being used. When the ipod is not plugged into the computer everything look fine even the correct date shows up. Any ideas????? Thanks

try reinstalling iTunes.

HT4899 I keep getting the same email sent to my I cloud account, even though i delete them they just keep coming back

I keep getting the same email sent to my I cloud account, even though I delete them they just keep coming back. I now have 7 email that I that I can delete several times a day and they just keep coming back. Very frustrating !!

Go and log out of your MobileMe account and then try logging back in again with a dummy username and password. This can help clear it and then just log back in again with your normal username and password.
Note though that iWeb does not require a password or username to use it - this is MobileMe.
Also, start thinking about MobileMe alternatives before you are forced to in June.

Went to watch a video on You Tube that I have watched before on my iMac and got the prompt that I had to upload Adobe Flash Player. Did that, and am still getting the same prompt and can't watch any videos at all. What is going on here, Apple??

I do not know how to do this with an Apple TV (I don't have one), but as far as I know Apple TV only does mirroring.
If you have an HDMI cable long enough to reach your TV from where you sit, then it's easy. The TV could be set up in Extended Desktop mode (mirroring off) as if it was simply another computer monitor, and then you could just drag windows to it. If you have the Displays icon in your menu bar, that's where the setting is, or if the icon is not there, then the setting is in the Displays system preference. But again, that's for conventionally connected monitors, not Apple TV. If you don't have an HDMI cable and wanted a long one that's affordable you can get those at monoprice.com.
The answer we are still waiting for is if anyone knows if Apple TV can be used in extended desktop (non-mirroring) mode.

I keep getting the same emails twice, after I've deleted from device and read on desktop!

While at work, I usually read my email on my computer, but I still get them on my BB, which I delete right away. However, even after it's already been read on my computer and deleted from my Curve, I end up with another alert for the same email, and the email as unread in my Curve inbox.
How can I make that STOP? I don't need to be told more than once that I have a new email, and even less so if I've already read it!

is the email imap, pop, owa/exchange?
do you have redirector installed (in DTM is there an email settings icon)
who is your carrier?

If I get mail on my iPod, do I still get the same emails on my macbook?

Would the same emails appear in my inbox on both my iPod and my macbook, or would it only be one or the other?

Yes, if it's an IMAP account. No, if it's a POP account.

Hi Lars, Please check this link: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/ePrint-Print-Apps-Mobile-Printing-and-ePrintCenter/Can-t-use-my-old-hp-... this thread implies the same answer for your question.

"FF is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close existing FF, or restart your system. So have to use Int Exp Would like to talk about this, but always get the results that support is closed

I prefer using Firefox, and do all the time. However, this used to happen occasionally, then go away. Now it is happening all the time.
If I try to enter aol email, I receive the message: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing FF process, or restart your system.
And I can find no way to close it when that happens.
Would really like to have this solved. Do not believe it is a computer or internet problem - just had my computer repaired because of a faulty disc drive. It is a three year old Dell, with Windows XP

Why do I keep getting the same emails after I have deleted them.

Since I have updated to the new OS I have been receiving emails that i have deleted from my inbox to only be placed back in it. I thought Apple made the new update to where you view emails from all your devices and if you delete from one device it will do the same to the others or am I miss understanding? The OS will place the email back into my inbox like it was a new email coming through.

You can remove (uninstall) Java Console extension, you do not need them and they can cause problems. The same for the Java Quick Starter.

Purchased a movie. Trying to watch it through Apple TV. Receiving error "An error occurred loading this content. Try again later." I have tried to play the movie several times but still get the same message.

I purchased a movie using Apple TV. I keep receiving the same error message "An error occurred loading this content"

There may be network issues or issues with Apple's servers.
Personally I would unplug and restart AppleTV. If there are still problems and you can access the iTunes store sections to browse I would contact itunes store support.

Once I get my email on my MacBook Pro, I don't also want to get the same email on my iPad. How do I fix this? Thanks!

I don't want to receive email on both my MacBook Pro AND iPAD. Once getting my email is enough!

Hi Aerobuf,
If your mail provider supports the older POP mail protocol, you may be able to configure your Mac and your iPad to remove fetched messages from the server so that they only reside on the device that initially receivied them, as outlined in the following article:
Using a POP account with more than one device
Note: If configured this way, you will not be able to see a mail on one device if it has already been received by the other.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled, but still get the same error message about profile missing or inaccessible--what do I do now?

When I opened the profiles folder there were folders missing (less folders than were shown on the help page). I tried using a restore point, but that did not work either. I don't know what else to do. :( I cannot access the manual fix steps because the browser will not open, so that is useless information.

See:
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-run-firefox-when-your-profile-missing-or-inacc
This is usually caused by a problem with the profiles.ini file and the profile marked as Default=1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.
*Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\<br>C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\<profile>\
*Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
*Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/
You can use one of these to make Firefox create/use a new default profile:
*Delete the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
*Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
*Use "Choose Folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

Hello, I have updated my sister's mobile to the new ios7 and then i dont know what happened but she had the same data and names and contact numbers , photos, also messages text and whatsapp as mine. Its exactly the same, I want to restore her data help

Hello, I have updated my sisters mobile with my Pc via itunes, and she then had the same wallpaper as mine, also the same applications, with the same username, password, same txt messages and whatsapp messages as mine. Everything is the same. Pls help me, how can I restore her info?
Please tell me in precise, because I'm new to tech. problems. Thx. (Arwa) P.s. her iphone is 5.

You probably used your backup, or iCloud backup.
If she wants to restore it back, she must have a backup before. On iTunes, click Restore iPhone and choose her backup.
If she doesn't, she has to start fresh.
