From a little time, I have this problem.
Some messages are with strange characters.
Here an example, but sometimes a messages contains a lot of characters like that.
The word is HCI and then there is a S with an accent !!!


I am trying to use skydrive because i use office 365 and would be glad to have my files sync between my two computers but it doesn't work at all. My files are small and i don't use long names with strange characters. I only have pdfs power points and word docs. even though skydrive can't sync the files. I upload them on windows 8 then when i get home and turn on my mac (osx mavericks) it starts downloading the files, when it reaches 20% it starts again and again and...it drains my battery, congests my network and the files don't get sync. I am using lens than 100 mb and 20 files on skydive...even though no success! 

Please help!
thanx!
Outlook 2011. Mountain Lion.
When I answer people with the email as text message (no HTML),
sometimes people receive the text with strange characters.
So I have applied the following instruction read in this forum:

"Manually setting the Text Encoding to UTF-8 (Format -> Text Encoding -> Unicode (UTF-8) does indeed "fix" the problem".

BUT, every time I compose e new message I must apply that? Outlook doesn't remember this settings?
Thanks

I have been trying various changes to the options - send - as my emails were going out with some strange characters ie. the - was something weird and we fixed that but now I have my emails that I send can be read only on desktops and it is all jibberish on black berries.  I need to get back to an original setting for mail sending.  Html or plain text, encode text - none, quoted printable, or base 64.  Not sure what I should use.  I have somehow set it to unicode 7 utf.  Hope someone can sort this out for me.  Thank you
