Why are programming symbols suddenly interspersed in my email messages?

About 3 weeks ago, I began getting what look like programming strings interspersed in email messages from one source. No one else who gets email from that source gets them. No other email is affected. They are a combination of <BR> <BR> and strings of letters and symbols sometimes every other word or full paragraphs of these.

Why can't I suddenly send documents via email?

Why

Hi,
I use send file in Reader and I've tried both Internet and Google Crome. I
have Windows 7 and I use Adobe EchoSign to send the documents. You can look
into four emails I got from Adobe EchoSign where you confirmed documents I
had sent. As I said earlier why is it different now?

Why is it that I have to delete email messages 2Xs (on separate occasions) before they will finally go into garbage?

Why is it that I have to delete email messages 2Xs (on two separate occasions) before they will finally go into the trash?

lynda150,
If it is a imap acct, you are deleting from both Mail and the server, to speed this up you can use keyboard shortcuts,(from Mail) COMMAND 1 selects Inbox, COMMAND 5 is the trash, you can select all COMMAND a press delete , whole thing takes a second.
You can also check if your server has a trash option, that will allow you to do a one step deletion. I was able to do 1 step when I was on a POP acct, since imap it's been as I described above.
Also check Mail preferences>General and try see if "When searching All Mailboxes" that Trash is not checked.
Hope this helps some,
Best

HI Ana ...
I had FB working again two days ago, and yesterday in mid-serve Safari just "couldn't find the server" once more...
That's a different issue...
First, if you can just use English, open System Preferences > Language & Text then select the Language tab. Drag English to the top of the list then restart your Mac.
Now for the server issue. Try using Open DNS. That shold help the "couldn't find the server" issue...
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.
Try accessing Facebook on Safari now.

Why are there multiple keychain records for same email account?

I have noticed that it takes sometimes up to 45 seconds for Apple Mail to send (whoosh...) an email. Then I started getting an alert asking for my password intermittently.
I checked my KeyChain Access and note 5 records for this email account dating back to 2007 and while the password hasn't changed in all these years, I note the "Where" field is different in some of these records. So my uneducated hunch is Apple Mail is getting a little confused and having to go thru all 5 records insteads of just one.
As note multiple records for other email accounts and website logins I have.
1. Why is this happening?
2. Is it normal
3. Can I, should I, delete all but one for each item be it an email account or web login, etc.
or
Should I delete all 5 and let a brand new one be created for Keychain next time I send or get email for this particular email account?
I also see there is some info on keychain syncing. Does this have anything to do with my situation?
Thx,
Steven

I'm a little distracted with Steve's passing. He will be missed to say the least
But if it isn't too disrepectful to reply at this time, I'm unclear with your advise because there are 5 items all for the same email account. A couple are duplications, and the others have slightly different "Where" info.
I can't imagine I need all 5 and wonder if I should delete 4 and keep the newest one?
All my email accounts have multiple entries.
Anyone know why this is happening and if it's OK to delete the oldest ones and keep just the newest?

Why are my iMessages coming up as my email address?

So starting about 2-3 months ago, I have been sending iMessages to people from my phone whom I have sent them before and know I am an existing contact in their phone. Suddenly I started to get the same reply from most of them: "Who is this?" Of course, I identified myself and people responed "Why is it coming up as a strange email address?" I would ask if it was coming up with my apple ID, which is was.
So why is this happening? I did upgrade from a iPhone 4 to a iPhone 5, but I know that wasn't the cause, because one of them was a coworker who started long after I got my 5. I didn't do anything different that I know of, and it has happened before and after iOS 7.X. It has becoming very annoying, especially when it is to my boss, whom I usually don't text, and he hasn't added my personal email address to his contacts.
I do have an iPad Mini; however, I have messaging disabled on it.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
Thanks.

Why is my mail icon not showing unread email messages?

For some reason, my mail icon is no longer showing my badge icon displaying the number of unread emails I have. Within mail, next to my mailbox, it no longer shows the number of unread emails either even though there are clearly email messages with the blue dot indicating they're unread. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks

Open Mail, go to top and under Mail select Preferences. Click on general and make sure where it says 'Dock Unread Count, you have it set to Inbox Only or All Mailboxes, whichever you want and that it isn't set to none. If it is already set then try cetting it to none, close mail, restart, open Mail and go and change it again from none to what you want.
Good Luck

Why are my prints suddenly awful?

Similar questions seem to have been asked already, but here is my specific problem.
I have until now had absolutely no problems printing with an ICC profile, allowing CS2 to colour manage. I am using ICI's Olmec satin paper in an Epson R800, with ICI's own ICC profile. ICM in the printer driver is selected, with no colour management. My monitor is regularly calibrated.
Suddenly, when I print, the colours, particularly greens, are awful (a sort of washed-out orange-brown) - I am losing most of the detail in foliage. I thought it was a printer problem, but viewing the proof colours in CS2 gives me the same poor colour rendition - a beautiful shot turns into a horror when I select view>proof colours. So it appears that CS2 is correctly applying the profile - the print colours matching the proof colours on screen. But why the massive colour space shift (working space has always been ProRGB, but it doesn't make any difference if I change it to sRGB)? Corrupt ICC profile? I don't think so, because I uninstalled it and reinstalled the original copy.
I would like to try and print letting the printer manage the colour - does anyone know how I can do this using the ICI profile? I have associated the profile with the printer, but I don't see how to set this in the printer dialogue box. In advanced settings, there is a profile drop-down box that supposedly allows you to use custom profiles, but the only one appearing there is 'EPSON standard'.
All comments/suggestions gratefully received.
Thanks
Dave

David,
For all you've said, I feel you're doing the right thing, but as my suggestions were just stretching for a possible cause of the problem, I'll go back to my initial reply and ask if you're certain your profile loader is working? I don't have the Spyder software, so I'm not sure what the profile loader is for it, but if it works similarly to the Monacor EZColor software for my OptixXR, then a shortcut for it will be added to the Start Menu > Programs > Startup folder so that it is launched each time you boot your PC. It should then load the profile last created when you calibrated your monitor. If the loader is missing or somehow corrupted and thus not loading the profile, then that may well be the source of the problem.
The fact that colors look correct on your XP desktop doesn't necessarily mean that the profile is loaded, although it does suggest that. Unless you are viewing the images in some color managed application, which XP itself isn't, nor are its image viewers, then I'm pretty certain you are seeing all images displayed pretty much as if they were not tagged with a profile themself. That is, most likely they are being shown as if they were sRGB images, and your default monitor setting (profile ignored) may already be close enoughh to sRGB to provide images that look pretty darn good. If your profile is loading correctly and if the behavior is like what I've seen, then you will observe a slight shift in colors on your monitor once the profile loader has loaded the monitor profile to the LUT of your graphics chipset.
Also, the presence of a monitor profile in any kind of drop-down menu as in Photoshop's color settings dialog, simply means that profile exists on your system. It does not mean the profile is loaded.
Again, everything I see you saying sure makes it look at if all should be in good order, yet just isn't for some reason. Such behaviors as that just tend to suggest a corrupt file.
If you want to confirm your monitor profile is in fact being loaded correctly, I suggest you download this free and simple-to-use tool from Xrite, called DisplayProfile: http://www.xrite.com/product_overview.aspx?ID=757&Action=support&SoftwareID=539
DisplayProfile is a standalone executable that, upon launch, initially shows what monitor profile is currently loaded and active. It should report to you the profile you created with your Spyder. If you select any other profile in the list that is tagged with an asterisk (indicates gamma tagged profile suitable for loading to the LUT), it will reload the LUT with that profile and you can easily see how that affects your monitors colors on-the-fly.
Recapping what you've said here, the current process you follow is the same that you've always taken and used successfully, and nothing to your knowledge has changed? That is, you've been successfully using the R800 and the paper and profiles mentioned, with no changes that you're aware of? As you said, I'd not really expect your original Olmec profile to be corrupted as well as the copy that has been in use. If this "suddenly, when I print" became a problem only recently, then Lawrence's suggestion of reverting to a System Restore point prior to the time you first observed the problem may well be worth doing. Of course, this assumes you have System Restore active so that checkpoints are periodically created, and they span the time period in question.
In the end, it may also be just as you last said...that a custom profile for your paper is needed. On my R1800, I've been very happy with the Espon Ultra Premium Luster, Velvet Fine Art and Ultrasmooth Fine Art papers in most cases, each with their associated Epson profiles. However, there do seem to be some images I'll print to the latter 2 papers where they seem more difficult to judge the color saturation relative to the softproof. I also now remember how I stumbled along ( http://ambress.com/photoshop/softproof ) for a while with having "Preserve RGB Colors" mistakenly enabled in the softproof settings, and that was badly affecting the softproofing of prints made to Epson Enhanced Matte and the Premium Luster...something else worth mentioning, as another time for you to check. Generally, it should be disabled as I understand things.
Good luck!
Daryl

Why are my browsers suddenly displaying foreign language?

and how do i fix it. both safari and ff started displaying some content (not all) in foreign characters. for example, going to cnn.com, some article headers are no longerr english. or on wikipedia's english site, most of the content is no longer in english. anyone know how can fix this. and for the record, apple.com is still in english. thanks.

Where are you located? I have lived in Mexico for years and have had all my sights in English, just last month all my sites defaulted to Spanish, I had to go into preferences on each program and put the default language into English. I am not sure why it started to do this, and it was a pain to go into all the programs and change it. One note though, Facebook can take several tries to default to English and it will at times revert back to Spanish when it wants. If you are in the U.S. your default should be English and I would check my internet address to make sure it is a U.S. address. Their are several sites you can go to check this. this site will tell you where your IP is from. http://www.geobytes.com/IpLocator.htm?Getlocation

Why are my slices suddenly visable?

Hey folks. I was wondering if anyone could explain (and remedy) why the slices on my home page are suddenly visable. For the last four years they weren't. And oddly enough, with one browser (Safari) they're still not visable, but with other browsers they are. Mainly the horizontal slice lines on my home page. Please take a look:
hhttp://www.toilgirls.com
I guess I'm wondering if I accidentally allowed my slice lines to be visable.
Thanks very much in advance!

Looks like the image coverart_22.jpg is to large for the cell its in .... forceing the table to grow larger and therby making "gaps" in the table cells so the slices show.
There are 2 easy fix ...
1. cut some px of the bottom of the coverart_22.jpg (50-100px) and give the cell its in a valign="top" so the image stays at top of the cell
40. <tr>
41.      <td colspan=3><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_01.jpg" width=440 height=298 alt="" valign="top"></td>
42.      <td colspan=2><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_02.jpg" width=489 height=298 alt=""></td>
43.      <td rowspan=15><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_22.jpg" width=79 height=1080 alt="" valign="top"></td>
44.      <td><img src="../../../Users/brianclarke/Desktop/ToilGirls%20Site/toilgirls/images/spacer.gif" width=1 height=298 alt=""></td>
45. </tr>
btw: i see you have align middel and top in your code... i know GL alows for this but thats actualy wrong
You only use align for directions left, center, or right.
You use valign for directions top, middle, bottom, or basline.
2. Insted of cutting the image you merge the containg cell with the cell udner it and therby make room for the image inside it. by setting the rowspan to 16 + using valing="top" on the cell and remove the <td></td> in line 108
40. <tr>
41.      <td colspan=3><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_01.jpg" width=440 height=298 alt="" valign="top"></td>
42.      <td colspan=2><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_02.jpg" width=489 height=298 alt=""></td>
43.      <td rowspan=16><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_22.jpg" width=79 height=1080 alt="" valign="top"></td>
44.      <td><img src="../../../Users/brianclarke/Desktop/ToilGirls%20Site/toilgirls/images/spacer.gif" width=1 height=298 alt=""></td>
45. </tr>
105. <tr>
106.     <td colspan=2><a onmouseover="changeImages( /*CMP*/'coverart_20',/*URL*/'images/coverimages/coverart_20a.jpg');return true" onmouseout="changeImages( /*CMP*/'coverart_20',/*URL*/'images/coverimages/coverart_20.jpg');return true" href="links.html"><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_20.jpg" name="coverart_20" width=193 height=70 alt="" border="0"></a></td>
107.     <td colspan=3><img src="images/coverimages/coverart_21.jpg" width=736 height=70 alt=""></td>
108.     <td></td>
109.     <td><img src="../../../Users/brianclarke/Desktop/ToilGirls%20Site/toilgirls/images/spacer.gif" width=1 height=70 alt=""></td>
110. </tr>

Why are the colors suddenly negative?

The colors on my iMac g4 10.4.4 are suddenly inverted...they look like photo negatives..I've tried to change it back in System Preferences and by shutting down and restarting but nothing helps...the colors are still all wrong...there must be something simple to change them back to normal but I don't know what it is..any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you want to know the reason why open System Preferences then click on Universal Access. Go down to Display and you will see options for Black on White and White on Black.
These can be set with a set of key commands, which you must have hit once by mistake (sounds odd but I did it once myself so I know it can happen).
If you want to make sure it doesn't happen again in System Preferences go to Keyboard & Mouse then Keyboard Shortcuts then turn off all the Universal Access commands.
