Can I insert hyperlinked text into Mail? In other words, if I want a specific word or phrase to be hyperlinked to a webpage, rather than pasting the link itself into the message, how would I do that?
View 2 RepliesI'm new to Mac and working on my existing powerpoint lectures that were originally created in Word on a PC. Recently, my hyperlinks make the linked text invisible--this is true on both my Mac desktop and my Macbook Pro. Both already existing hyperlinks and any new links I create disappear from the screen, though they can be clicked on and still function as links. I have tried changing the font color and the background color, but no luck. The text disappears whether I simply past in the link to a slide or add it as a hyperlink to text. I'm running Mac OS 10.5.6 and Office 2004.

Is there some way to insert a PDF as a text link (click link >> open document) in a Pages document? Pages defaults to an image of the PDF (which is relatively useless). If there is some way to change this default behaviour (or some other way to hyperlink to a PDF that doesn't result in an image.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI went to the library to locate mail so I could insert an HTML signature. Problem is, I can't find Mail anywhere. It is not in the library, not in Cache, etc. When I attempt to search for Mail in the finder, before I can select Library as the search location, the finder shuts and pops me into another application. Where is mail? I can use it. It is in my apps folder, etc., but I cannot find it other than in that location. Can't get in to add a signature, etc.

I save all my contacts in Address Book in the First Name field (not using Last Name Field). When I use Mail to send emails, somehow last name of the sender/recipient gets added to that person's contact. So John Harris becomes John Harris Harris - super annoying!
Someone suggested to delete all from Recent Recipients in Mail - I did that, it helped but only in relation to those contacts who have been deleted from Recent Recipients - is there a way to disable Mail poaching surnames from my emails and inserting them into address book automatically?
Is there a way to increase the size of the displayed mail, as you are creating it? I have mine set to 12 point text, but it is still difficult to read. The e-mail when received is fine, it's the creating that's "tiny"?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using Classic Layout in Mail.app - in the message list the column "Flag" shows all flags/labels as text, i.e. instead of an orange flag icon it shows "Orange". This is rather strange and uses too much space in the list - is there a way to change to icon view? In Mavericks it shows a coloured flag icon.Â
I tried to find a menu command or Mail.app preference to change this, but couldn't find one. Not sure but I think in OS X 10.10.0 Mail.app showed flag icons; I have OS X 10.10.1 installed.

There is no provision for changing the color, but you can change the size and font, and you can put lines through or under the text.,etc. You can do none of that with MAIL..Do I have to start using another E-mail program?

How do you enlarge the text in your inbox. Now just to be clear, not the text in the emails (command & +) but the text in the list of emails in your inbox. Hope that is clear.

My messages in Mail and when I'm writing messages look like this:
This is an example of how text looks in m y Mail application. It doesn't wrap the text and seperates letters at the end of each line."
At "Apple's Snow Leopard Refined" site, you can find shortly after the middle the paragraph "The right service at the right time" with an illustration: A contextual menu (Service) of a selected text in Safari, "New Note With Selection". This automatic instantly produces a brand new and screaming yellow mail note containing the selected text, neatly filled out with subject (beginning of the text), sender, date and time. You can access services with a right click of your mouse or Control-click of your trackpad. Here is a simple step-by-step guide on how to have this very practical contextual menue entry that should work with any program where you can select text: Open the app "Automator" and choose "Service". Select in the left column "Library" (should be by default), then "Copy to Clipboard" in the right column and move it into the empty main space. Then put the list entry "Run AppleScript" below the first item in the space....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI just set up a RAID 0 with two Velociraptors in my G5. I cloned my main drive onto the new RAID drive but it would not boot so I reinstalled OS X from the recovery DVD and it fixed the problem. However, now I am getting these really weird character issues in certain programs. Characters in my Mail e-mails are kerned WAY too close and the text is abnormally small (see photos below). I also noticed the same problem on one of my Yahoo widgets. Haven't found the problem in any other applications yet. Does anyone know what the source of the problem is and how I can fix it? It's obviously pretty important that I am able to read my e-mails.
View 3 Replies View RelatedToday, after using a signature in Apple Mail for the past few months, I discovered that my signature is HUGE when read by non Apple Mail users and that the text in my emails is in Times New Roman even though I set it to Helvectia by default.
Turns out this is a problem in Apple Mail, as setting a default font only affects what YOU see, not what the email recipient sees. This seems backwards to me. My emails have apparently been all unorganized for months now. I've sent out job applications thinking I had a sleek format...
Anyways, researching this, I read nearly every post in this google search, but still don't understand how to fix the problem. Apparently there's one "fix" involving stationary, and another fix where you begin typing right at the beginning of the sig...?
Can anyone tell me how to make my emails that I send from Apple Mail show up for my recipients in Helvectia and have the signature be in the same font size and Helvectia as well ? And no, clicking the "always match my default message font" button didn't do this, just in case.
I want to create a colourful signature in Mac Mail but I can't figure out how to use different fonts and colours within the same signature. All I have managed to do is change the default font for all my email messages. Could someone please explain where the font formatting controls are for signatures?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just received the 15" MacBook Pro with enhanced resolution screen (not the Retina display). At the highest resolution, all of the fonts display incredibily small. However, the lower resolution options don't seem to match the aspect ratio of the screen and create distortion. I can deal with this on Safari because it allows pinch and zoom resizing. However, I have not figured out how to zoom in on the Mail app. Using Command + is not a good solution because it actually increases the font size that the recipient views. I have to go all the to 30pt font to make it comfortable to view. Also, using Control and two finger swipe to zoom in a poor option as well because not everything will display.Â

I had problems with my Apple Mail crashing and the only fix we could try after spending quite a long time on searching for the proble was to delete all my accounts and re-introduce them one at a time. But I didn't realise that would delete all my preferences and signatures
So I am having to start from fresh. I can get my text for message subject lines and the mailboxes to the size I want BUT if i have digests from groups the text is still tiny. I know I can enlarge using cmd+ but I have to do that for each message. But I can;t find the preferences

On my iPad, when I type in text it will automatically capitalize the first word in a sentence and other words as appropriate, plus let me add to the list of autocomplete words.Â
Is there similar functionality in Lion? I'm used to relying on iOS to do this work for me, I bought a new MacBook pro recently, and I'm trying to set it up so both devices work as much alike as possible.

Friends:Â
In Mail 7.3 I have:Â
In preferences>composingÂ
When quoting text in forwards:Â
Include all of the original message text.Â
Nevertheless the new message created for me to forward contains none of the original message text.Â
What could be wrong?
Despite checking the box "place signature above quoted text" in Mail preferences signatures, my signature continues to appear at the bottom of the reply. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. I keep hoping a software update will fix this problem. Do I need to trash my preferences or trash all of my signatures and start over. OS 10.9.3

View 1 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know how to do this? I know I can add the Previous Recipients to my Address Book, but I'd really love to get them into a text file the way it's listed, specifically in this case because of the Last Used date column. I found one post on the Apple forums with a way to do it via Terminal, but the steps weren't clear and I wasn't able to do it (I'm a complete dummy when it comes to Terminal and scripts and the like ).

Does Apple Mail have ability to paste boiler plate text? In MS Office Windows I used to setup many boiler plate texts that I would access through keyboard shortcuts, such as Control H for "Please don't hesitate to contact me." Can Mail do a similar thing?
