.Neo Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 We've all ben complaining about iTunes since version 4, if not earlier. However, that doesn't justify things on Microsoft's end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hot Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Been using this suite for a few days, loving it so far. Microsoft has obviously put a lot of effort into polishing it. Some of the complaints in this thread are ridiculous. :laugh: There?s still a bunch of menus in OS X?s bar. I know it would remove consistency in the OS if MS removed them, but I hate when something in an app is available in multiple places. Everything can be done in the Ribbon now, so just keep a File menu to print and save and whatnot. Nearly every app in existence has all it's toolbar functions also available in the menu bar.

.Neo Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Nearly every app in existence has all it's toolbar functions also available in the menu bar. Agreed. Don't really think that's an issue either. Microsoft made the right call leaving the Menu Bar intact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rawr_boy81 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 What did Microsoft Office 2011 actually bring to the table feature-wise beyond the Ribbon and return of functionality that was already there before? Who are you replying to? use the blood quote button for Christ sake, it isn't difficult! I never said there was new functionality - I said there was merely features taken out of 2008 which were in 2004 and now back in 2011. Read the bloody post before replying.

crazzyyfool Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Haha, this screenshot made me laugh. :D OMG curly fonts! :D I'm just wondering if it's because I've changed my System font from Lucida Grande to Myriad Pro and Messenger is getting confused and displaying any old crap. All other apps work fine. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AltecXP Posted September 29, 2010 Share Posted September 29, 2010 Try cleaning your Font caches. Its typically that or a bad font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All other apps work fine. :/ Perhaps Messenger is not seeing the existence of the new font so it's defaulting to whatever... Maybe check if you can even select it in the font selector from the conversation window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylesg Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I am having a odd probelm that I don't think should be occurring in Outlook 2011. Every single email that has some sort of picture or HTML grahphic embeded gives me the ??? in the picture placeholder and states- "to protect your privacy, some pictures were not downloaded". Then it gives me the option to click a download pictures button. I have tried altering the settings on junk mail and adding these contact to my Outlook address book. I still have to manually download the graphics. Seems this was something they fixed in late 2004 or early 2008 editions- but I am getting it on 2011 with seemly no way to turn off.

It is enabled for security reasons - and thus don't want you to do something stupid by you making the loading of images automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme $niper Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Most modern mail clients do this by default now, even webmail. Even my Blackberry does this for the emails I receive on my phone. Usually there is a setting to disable the security features if you really want to (my Blackberry has no such thing) but it's probably not recommended. Yahoo! Mail defaults to showing you images automatically in your inbox, but not if they are in the trash or spam folders. You can set it to always remember to show the images for specific recipients. Gmail defaults to never showing you the images automatically, regardless of folder. You can set it to always remember like Gmail. Have you tried going to the "Reading" pane in the Preferences for Outlook? There is a section in that tab called Security where you can set "Automatically download pictures from the Internet" to either "In all messages", "In messages from my contacts", or "Never".
