iCloud Mail on Windows: Send icon missing when replying

I run the icloudmail app from my Windows laptop. When I try to reply to a message, the send icon does not appear.


The send icon appears when I compose a new email but not for a reply

If the page zoom does not work and the problem affects all your browsers on PC, it is because the interface is blocked because of a layout bug specific to the iCloud Mail quick response pane on Windows. To get around this visual bug and find your action buttons, the easiest solution is to open the answer in a separate window. When you write your answer, look for the small arrow or double square icon at the top right of the message (usually called Open in a new window or Enlarge). By detaching the response from the main pane, the entire interface will reload correctly and the send button will immediately reappear at the top or bottom.

Hello john-boi, welcome to the Apple Support Community!

This display bug on Windows is usually due to the fact that the iCloud Mail application or web page is too enlarged, which hides the send button at the bottom of the reply window. To make it reappear, click inside your browser or application window, then hold down the Cmd key and press the minus (-) key several times to reduce the zoom. If this doesn't work, try to maximize the full-screen window or go through a classic internet browser (such as Chrome or Edge) by logging in private browsing mode on icloud.com to respond to your messages without this visual blockage. Tell us again :)
