Why is the text bubble to the same person with another iPhone sometimes green and sometimes blue?
Why is the text bubble sometimes green and sometimes blue when I text to the same person/number who has an iPhone 4s?

the colors indicate if the message receiver has a iphone or not. Blue for iphone, green for other.
Not necessarily an iPhone but rather if they have iMessage support at the address you're using.
If you're using an email address they could have an iOS device or a Mac.

Why can i send imessages to every other person with an iPhone but not one person
I can send an imesage message to every other person with an iphone, but not my uncle, who has an iphone 4s. We are both connected to wifi while texting and yet the message still shows up as green. PLEASE HELP
Get him to check he's got iMessage enabled.
Settings->Messages->iMessage needs to be 'ON'.
Also in the same screen check what addresses he has under "Send & Receive" to ensure you're using one of those (or his phone number). -
My Gmail won't send messages. I used the activity doctor to check what was going on and it lists 2 gmail connections. The first seems to be fine with green light. The other just sits there with spinning wheel trying to connect. I'm not sure what that means but it seems to be hanging up my mail from sending. Please help. Bob

For the SMTP, try using Apple Token instead of the password.

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?
I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards

How can i change the color of the text bubble in Preview?
Is it possible to change the colour of the text bubble in Preview? In the Help section it seems to indicate you can but following the directions only puts a border around the bubble in the colour you have chosen. The interior colour of the bubble does not change.
Attached are the Help instructions:Has to be written into the app by the developer. Send them a suggestion to add such a feature.

Can i change the color of the text bubble?
I recently updated the iphone 4S with the new upgrade. Is there a way to change the color of the text bubble from that hideous green?
No, unfortunately not...
Green means SMS and blue means it's an iMessage but it's not customizable.
You can leave feedback for Apple though about it if you like at: www.apple.com/feedback
Good luck! -
Why is the text going over the image????
Please refer to video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rN6Ndm9sFo&feature=youtu.b
Why is the text going over the image when the text layer is below the image layer?? It is so frustrating.Are you sending the texts to his phone number or his Apple ID? It might be that the texts originated from your phone is to his Apple ID and not his phone number and his Apple ID was not registered for the Message app on his phone. So any texts to his Apple ID is not received by his phone.
Can you receive his texts? If yes, then reply back from what he send you and see if he can receive the texts. -
Why is one iphone displaying the text messages of the other 2 iphones in my house?
Why is one iphone displaying the text messages of the other 2 iphones in my house?
That would be imessage and not text message.
As stated by sberman, it's because the users are sharing apple id.
On each devices - settings - message - send&receive- remove or uncheck the apple ids. -
Why are some text missing from the right side of a page I send to my printer? Thanks
Why is some of the text missing on the right side of a page I send to my printer?
I came across something similar recently where it printed the left hand side only!
If I want to print an email, instead of File > Print ( does not print properly ) I click on the print icon on my email webpage ( do not use applemail and access gmail direct) which then takes me to print preview showing the complete email which prints ok.
Some webpages ( File>Print) do not print properly and some do. Those that do not generally have their own printer icon (path) that needs to be clicked on.
Maybe something to do with encryption but don't know.
Hope this helps in some way. -
it used to be that when I created a pdf from a word or publisher document, hyperlinks worked fine. Now I cannot get them to work unless the text displayed for the link is the complete address and it all appears on one line. Why?
You can print to the Adobe PDF printer, but that only creates links that Acrobat or Reader recognize as such. That is the reason for needing the entire URL on one line. It is not actually an embedded link, but one created by Acrobat on the fly. With OFFICE 2013 you have two choices: 1. create the PDF with the print to Adobe PDF and then add the links in Acrobat so that they are complete or 2. I think the WORD save as PDF or XPS will create the PDF with links, but not sure. If so, that would be the quickest solution for you, but be aware of potential problems with the MS plugin.
Of course, the third option is to upgrade to XI which can be done with AA 9. You will probably not be eligible for a for an upgrade to whatever the next version will be. -
I know Imessaging between IOS 5 devices is free, but when sending group texts to both IOS 5 phones and nonIOS 5 phones, is it still free to those with IOS 5? The text bubble is green.
According to Macworld it is a lowest common denominator situation. If any of the people on your list are not iMessage people then all the messages go out SMS and will count against your messages from your provider. Bummer IMHO, but that is the way it is.

I recently bought a new macbook pro and set it up using the migration assistant from my mac mini. I can't get the text message forwarding feature to work with both computers. It keeps saying that I only have 2 devices setup, my iPad and my macbook pro. When I mess with the setting on my mac mini, it goes from saying that that is one of the devices to my macbook pro being the 2nd device. I think that something happened as a result of my using the migration assistant and now it thinks that my macbook pro and my mac mini are one and the same computer. Any ideas?
Thanks, Sig.
The old computer is a 2.6 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
The new one is a 2.3 GHz intel core i7
In going over this, thanks to "tallking it out" with you, I did discover the Text Edit problem. Because I've still been unable to get the new computer text size (fonts or whatever) to match the old computer, I did not notice that the curser is now different--the line midway down the curser has to be placed on the line I am working upon, otherwise the edits go elsewhere on the page. Now, with a bit of difficulty, I am able to get Text Edit to work correctly.
If you have any ideas as to why my menu bar and Text Edit type are still so slow, I'd love to have them.
(I went through the process you suggested earlier, re my Trackpad preferences, and found no improvement.)
