I just tried to send an email to a friend and opened New Message Box. I typed the message but the SEND button on the bottom left wasn't there - the button said SANS SERIF. How do I replace with SEND button?

Hi, @kivah.

 

IDK if you have yahoo, gmail, aol, etc., so the send button could be anywhere....sometimes there's just an arrow.

 

"Sans Serif' is a kind of font.

p.s.!

 

'Font' is the way the letters are formed.

 

This is: 'Book Antiqua'.

 

Comin Sans MS

Impact

Times New Roman

 

Etc.!

I have a desktop - and use gmail. I think it's Microsoft.

I'm computer-challenged due to my age and never owned a cell phone. I have a roomie who will be home tonight - so I could ask him - if I'm not able to send emails. The SEND button was there until this morning - don't know what happened.

I suggest you re boot the computer, the send button is in blue and it is the furtuest left 

hope this helps

I use Gmail all the time.  believe it or not sometimes just shutting off your computer and restarting helps to clear up a lot of glitches.  Give it a try.

            @kivah,  As @I am still oxox posted, in Gmail a new message has format options allowing you to choose text size, color, style, etc.   

 

            You don't need to reboot/restart your computer or browser -- just click on the formatting options feature (the letter "A").

 

            When the options are not displayed, the new message looks like this (I added the red arrow).   The letter "A" is the key to using these formatting choices:

            If you hover the cursor over the letter "A" you'll see it's called "Formatting Options."

            You can click on the letter "A" to display the options or click it again to hide them.   

 

            Toggle back and forth to see the details appear and then disappear:
