Hey Tim, Thanks for the chrome suggestion. Just hung up with Apple, and they are telling me a clean install will not fix the issue, my best bet is to get sighted assistance and download hard copies of my mail and then delete it all which I think I might do. Going to try chrome now. We deleted my gmail account and reinstalled it again so will see if that does anything. On Feb 13, 2014, at 6:17 PM, Tim Kilburn <kilbur...@gmail.com> wrote:
