cannot reset the size of the Message pane in Apple Mail

Readers,

Somehow, I managed to set the message board in the Message Viewer from Apple Mail to zero height (Classic view) and so the detailed content of the message selected in the list is not visible. The "handle" - a grey point is palpable but not draggable and so I can't resize the messages pane.

If I switch to the display of the 'new' unconventional columnar messages the far right of the column is not and while the little by dragging the slider appears (looks like a vertical bar with an arrow attached left) it's so powerless.

That seems like a reproducible bug for me. I can create an account on the Mac, but I don't know any incantation which will remove.

There must be a work around - does anyone know it?

OK I found a solution of sorts, although I'm sure that it is just a workaround for a bit ugly of coding.

The problem seems to be associated with having bars scroll either off or on auto-paraitre, which is the default behavior that I was using.

Because when I went to the system preferences/general and changed "Show scroll bars" Always, I was then able to enter the 'point' in the 'Classic' messages display panel and resize the preview pane.

I still cannot resize the preview pane in the mode of "unconventional" or "column".

  • Cannot set the default email in apple mail client

    Hi all

    I have a rather unusual problem. I'm on El captain, and I have 16 Mac Office installed (Outlook).

    When I go in my OS X mail client, and go to Preferences-> general-> default mail reader, it shows currently Outlook.

    When I go ahead and select Mail and then close the window and then return the preferences window, it switches back to Outlook.

    I can't set mail as my default mail client, which also live up to my sheet on part of Safari options (shows Outlook, no email).

    Is there another way in the system to set my default mail client, which will remain?

    I went the Outlook preferences, and there is no option to be found to set or no set Outlook as the default e-mail client. Strange.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    You can also set this option in Outlook preferences. Try here. I don't have the app to check where, but I think it is located on the general tab.

  • How can I control the size of the pane name displayed in the Message pane window?

    When I open a message, a full name (the raw message content) opens as a window in the upper part of the window of the Message pane. I have this display smaller window name (fit) while maintaining the ability to scroll. By dragging the edge of window display name would work well. Alternatively, the possibility to switch the display name and disable as F8 active / deactivate the messages pane.

    I noticed the address book display name feature, but very few of my messages or inscriptions in the book to meet the need.

    Looks like you display the full headers as giving the scroll describe you. But there is no way to drag the section header of a smaller size because it is attached and part of the Message pane.

    There is a setting to reduce the headers, but this removes the scroll to display the full headers. I tend to use this point of view, unless I need to see the full headers.

  • resize the message pane

    Just saw that Thunderbird has been updated to version 38.0.1 and I found that the "+" in the message pane is missing and displays now any electronic information in this area. Previously, I was able, by using a + button at the top left corner, change the size, which changes the displayed info. The + is missing and I can't find a way to change the size of the header in the messages pane.

    Menu (alt + T) tools > Add-ons and find the entry for the compact header module and activate it.

    I use version 2.1 in daily builds. So it does not work with Version 38

    Hi all, impossible to download the photos out of Lightroom 5 - I get a ' cannot read the message ' and 496 of the code ".". "  I previously used the crd of memory and it works ok.  It also displays images must be downloaded but just let me download them.  This is the message I received:

    The following files were not imported because they could not be read. (496)

    So what I did is launching a new catalog that then wiped out all the records and traces of my previous photos!

    You talk of out of the frying pan and into the fire!  Can someone help me with this?  I have an important project to present - I'm Freelancer and looking quite the fool.

    E.

    Your old catalog is still there, use the file-> open the recent item

    The error "cannot be read" indicates that the folder where your photos are to be copied in has no WRITE permission. Change your permissions on this folder.

  • Why can I not set the message pane to what I want the setting to stay to display/no display with F8?

    Everytime I open Thunderbird I have to press the f8 key to remove the message pane.
    I'm sick and tired of this! With any other program no matter how make you an adjustment he
    is the same when you reopen the program unless you want to change it. Please allow
    any change of setting do you stay like that, unless you want to change it. Please, I beg you!
    I said please.

    You run a program like CCleaner? This software tends to mess with the settings in Thunderbird.
    Thunderbird is designed to open just as you closed. Including the message pane disabled.

  • By the last updated 21/07/2015, where is the + in the message pane? The message pane takes up too much real estate.

    I like the very compact message pane. In the last updated 21/07/2015, the '+' disappeared and the message pane takes too much space. I'm willing to change Thunderbird mail readers.

    Please put ultra compact/a '+' back a.s.a.p. I tried ALL the tools and Menus for this already.

    The + and - are from an add on which you installed to sometimes called Compact Headers. That add needs to be updated to work with the new version of Thunderbird.
    Go to add it on the page and are looking for Compact headers. There is a new version that works with versions of Thunderbird 37 to 40.

  • The Message pane is then chosen to do not.

    When I open Thunderbird in the Message pane appears. I went to layout view and deselected the messages pane, but it will appear again when I open Thunderbird. When I look at the new layout, the message pane is checked marked again. I deselect the component messages constantly. It is a safety issue to me that some of the problems of security of the mail are enabled with just the e-mail message appears in the messages pane.

    I have always updated Thunderbird immediately when a new version is available. Can you solve this problem because this is a problem for me since a while and several updates to Thunderbird.

    Tell CCleaner to let Thunderbird only.
    Uncheck everything that CCleaner offers to 'clean up' associated with Thunderbird.

  • Many strange documents suddenly appeared under 'trash' in the message pane, which can not be deleted or moved.

    I'm under TB 31.2.0, but I think that this problem started with a version earlier. I must have inadvertently done something to cause all these many 'email' to appear in the junk e-mail folder in the messages pane. I pasted two examples below. If I remove them, they come back. I want to remove them or move them permanently. Thank you.

  • I want to click to open the message, but it is to open when I select it, and I can't get rid of the open under the messages pane.

    I want to click to open the message, but it is to open when I select it, and I can't get rid of the open under the messages pane.

    The preview area is called the messages pane. You can activate the message on and outside pane using either:

    • F8 key
    • Press the Alt key to display the classic menu bar > View menu > page layout > the message pane

    I don't know why I can't find it in the new menu (3 bars). There has got to be somewhere.

  • Is it possible to move the message pane at the bottom of the list of messages to the right?

    The question should be explicit. Windows Mail allows the folders pane, the message list and the part of the message to be listing in 3 columns side by side. In Thunderbird the message pane is available only beneathe the message list. Am I missing something?

    Could you go to the view menu, click Layout, and then view Veritical?

    Please let me know if that helps (in this case you can mark your question as answered). Thank you!

  • The screen of my Yahoo Mail has lost the messages pane. How can I get it back?

    How can I recover my Yahoo Mail screen with all components showing? I don't see the left pane that has the files and applications. The message pane is off the screen. The option and help drop downs are also out of the screen. Normally, these components can be adjusted, but now there is no possibility of adjustment.

    Try running Firefox in questions to troubleshoot Firefox in Safe Mode. If it works properly in this configuration, then one of your modules is the culprit.
