Dec 30, 2014 10:34 AM in response to MrJM79by ChitlinsCC,you said " Yes this just happened all of a sudden I have no idea if there any updates that occured or other apps installed "
this is kinda important. the sudden onset is a dead giveaway of some kind of update/install as the culprit.

Dec 30, 2014 10:38 AM in response to ChitlinsCCby Kilgore-Trout,Actually a change to the exchange web interface is just as likely. Based on the screen shot, it could be that a CSS or other support file isn't loading or is improperly linked.
If similar issues are occurring with other apps that rely on internet content, changes to the firewall or system security could be the issue.

Yes I was thinking about CSS and stylesheets on browser as well but when I opened Notes it has the same issue so I assume its more of the Mac settings issue.
Thanks,

Dec 30, 2014 10:47 AM in response to Kilgore-Troutby ChitlinsCC,Indeed... since we are still in the Discovery Phase I suppose we may yet discover what the true culprit is eventually.

Dec 30, 2014 11:00 AM in response to ChitlinsCCby MrJM79,Hi ChitlinsCC,
Yes I tried removing all he plugins and add-ons in firefox and safari browser thinking it's causing the issue but still the same.
Let me know if you need more info, sorry I couldn't provide precedent issues before this happened, but I'm guessing non so far since i couldn't remember anything new installed.
Thanks

Dec 30, 2014 11:14 AM in response to MrJM79by ChitlinsCC,I may be naive, but I can't envision how a CSS (Cascading Style Sheet & stylesheet are synonymous) could affect ALL browsers AND a non-browser app - but James may. I would take his advice and look into what suggestions he has - something to do with firewall or security that CAN affect ALL internet Apps.
As I cannot begin to replicate your issue, nor can I test with Mavericks, I cannot advise much further but to listen to others who may follow.
I think we have discovered what it is NOT, only.
best luck

I checked my firewall settings and it's turned off
Hi Chitlins,
I hope you wont give up on this issue
Thanks,

Dec 30, 2014 11:40 AM in response to MrJM79by ChitlinsCC,not giving up, just at the limit of my capabilities. = can't replicate & no Mavs
I will follow with interest and chime in if I feel I can contribute.

I won't profess to know how the Notes app handles its content, but it is not at all out of the question that it uses XML or a similar mark up type language - and could very well rely on CSS or at the very least a data or mark up definition file. I would think that it would be built in and not linked, however.
My guess at this point would be toward some missing or corrupt components in OS X, but not clear on what the best course of action would be to fix it. Maybe that an Etracheck scan would help pinpoint something. Not sure. A re-install of OS X might be in order.
