Why does Print Preview of a .eml file recursively open the same .eml file? I can't print it.

Hello. I saved an email from my IMAP account locally to file as offlineemail.eml. When I try to open the .eml file later in Thunderbird, it opens up ok, no problem. When I do Print Preview just before sending it to my printer, two windows pop up. In the background is the first window, the Preview itself. However, it only shows "about:blank" in the Preview body. In the foreground, a window with Title: Opening offlineemail.eml. Body: You have chosen to open: offlineemail.eml which is: eml document (27.9 KB) from: /tmp. What should Thunderbird do with this file? [Radio button] Open with [dropdown] Thunderbird (default); [Radio button] Save file; [Checkbox unchecked] Do this automatically for files like this from now on. [Push buttons] Cancel Ok. The Ok button remains greyed out until I click one of the radio buttons. I click Open with Thunderbird, the Ok button is now active, and I click Ok. Here, the same email opens up just fine again in a separate Thunderbird window. I do a Print Preview, and this whole paragraph of steps is repeated. I never see the preview. Any ideas why this would be? My Thunderbird version: 31.3.0. My OS: linux openSUSE 13.1"Bottle". File manager: Thunar 1.6.3 for the XFCE desktop.

Here's the Audit Space Usage for the original 5 MB file. It shows the images taking up the majority of the space, as expected:

    OK great info!
    I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
    By "Plugable":  USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
    2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
    Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance.  BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
    One person commented: 
    This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
    Thanks for any additional comments.
    Best regards,

  • Why does my iPhone give me a message chime at the same time everyday?

    For the last week, my iPhone 4 gives me a message chime everyday at the same time, 10:41 PM.  Yet, there are no notifications, messages, badge icons, or calendar dates.  I have no idea why it keeps doing this?  Has anybody else come across this issue?  If anybody can help out a guy who is fairly new to the iPhone it would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    Nope, I've gone through the Clock, Reminders App and through my Notifications and I can't seem to find anything that has a notification for that time.  I was wondering if it was something with my Cellular Network Carrier?

  • Why does "There is no default app specified to open the document.."pop up

    Hello. I'm still getting used to my iBook (I only had it for like a month now) and sometimes when I try to open different applications this message keeps coming up. It gives me the option to cancel or to choose an application, but just about all the application are in the light gray color and it won't let me select it. Help please! Thanks in advance

    What kind of file is dir.data? What program do you think should open it? A .doc file is a Microsoft Word document. You could use AppleWorks or even TextEdit to open it. If you click on the file once to select it, you should be able to choose "Get Info" from the File menu. In the next window, you should be able to select AppleWorks or TextEdit to open the file.

  • Why does my screen come up dark when I press the camera icon?

    Why does my screen come up dark when I press the Camera icon?  I can neither take pictures nor look at the photos I have saved.

    Doulbe tab the home key to see the task bar.  Touch and hold any of those icons until they jiggle, then delete them by touching the minus sign.   Then reboot the pad by holding the sleep and home buttons until the apple logo appears.  Ignore the red slider.
    You either have another app open that is using the camera, or you just have too much stuff in memory.  The reset process should clear it up.

  • Why does f12(preview in browser mode) not render the page correctly?

    Why does f12(preview in browser mode) not render the page correctly? Instead when i go to the main or original file, it renders properly? It is drriving me nuts! HAHA! Can anyone help? mainly CSS problem, div overlapping but when viewing from original file on browser not through F12, it renders correctly. CS5.5 DW. Thanks!

    just that one of it is a f12 (preview in browser) while the other one is going to the directory and clicking the html page by itself.
    F12 is simply a hot key that launches your browser.
    The only thing I can think of to explain this is that you have a local site folder someplace in addition to a testing server site.
    When you hit preview, your testing server on the localhost/ is being called up in the browser.
    When you open the HTML page directly, you're seeing the local site file with unparsed data.
    Try disabling your Testing Server in Sites > Manage sites > Edit...

  • Why does Printing a document cause it to be changed?

    When I do page setup, etc, then SAVE the document, and then PRINT the document, the "Changed Bit" in the close box of the document is set, and I cannot just close the document.
    Why does Printing change the document?
    How can I avoid this. (If I save the document, then Print, I do NOT want any further changes)
    Thanks

    Bill,
    Complaints about actual program misbehavior or outright bugs need to get reported directly to Adobe. This is a users to users forum and while Adobe personnel occasionally show up here (much, much less seldom now than in years past) it is extremely unlikely that they will see or take any action on such reports here. (Although there WAS a recent appearance by an Adobe engineer who independently jumped on an issue that certainly did seem to be a bug).
    The kind of thing you've described is annoying and should not happen (yes, lazy programming) but it's interesting sometimes when the explanation for such things reveals intent (rather than ignorance of the apparent defect) in order to solve another problem.
    Want REAL annoyance? How about programs that insist on saving (when closing) simply because the file has been opened! That's very common on Windows. Really, really irritating.
    But this thread has gone beyond any usefulness regarding your observation of a very tiny pimple on a major gem of engineering. And you've locked horns with one of the major irritants on this forum. If you persist, the 2 of you will just appear to be 2 brats squabbling in a mud hole. He likes that. Do you?
    You seem like a nice guy (so far). But it also seems like you like fighting (from this and another thread). It would be interesting to hear more from you. My unsolicited advice? Move on. He will not back down from his childish behavior which is an irritant and embarrassment here to many people. Most of whom simply ignore him and don't stick their necks out like I'm doing now.
    He's shamelessly overindulged by the forum moderator who, with all due respect, seems to possess good judgment in most areas save his handling of certain very caustic and inappropriate "members." here. (Sorry Neil)
    Ramon is knowledgeable, but confuses the strange protection afforded by a keyboard hitched to the Internet as macho proof of bravado and fearlessness. (He's never "met" anyone who can make him stop posting anything he wants to. Isn't that special?)
    On this forum he is not a gentleman. (who knows what he's like in real life? I'll bet he's very different!) Are you a gentleman? Regarding your complaint that you've been insulted, duly noted. I believe most here are on your side. Persist with this for even one more post and you'll have lost your standing. Let it go, COMPLETELY! Start a new thread about something interesting.
    Welcome to the fray.

  • Why has my Preview stopped responding and won't open any files?

    Why has my Preview stopped responding and won't open any files?
    Each time I try to open Preview it just hangs and I have to close the Prog by "Force Quit"

    nerbyad,
    Sorry to hear you are having this issue today.
    Does this happen on all files or a specific file?
    If this is happening on a specific file, it is most likely that file.
    If this is happening on all files, I would check to see if this is happening in other users accounts as well.  If you dont have other users, create one and see if preview works inside that new user account.
    Let me know...
    Wes -

  • Why Does photoshop quit unexpectedly when i try to open a file from my desktop?

    I've always been able to do it previously but today i've had to reinstall all my files and applications (long story) and now for some reason it won't open any files from the desktop.
    It seems to be fine if i open the same file from my documents so it just seems strange.
    If anyone knows why its doing this that would be great

    You mean it crashes?
    We can't tell you why it's crashing without seeing the detailed crash log.
    But first, make sure you have all the updates installed.

    Could be systems logs or some other system file growing.

  • Why Does Photoshop Sometimes Think A Raw File is Already Open?

    I'm doing some R&D where I'm opening the same Canon .CR2 raw file multiple times, experimenting with different converter settings.
    Sometimes I can open multiple documents in succession from the same raw file, in which case the documents are named e.g., IMG_7470, IMG_7470-2, etc.
    Sometimes it ignores my request to open the same raw file again, instead just making one of the documents I already have open current.  The simplest case is where I document IMG_7470 already open, and I either use File - Open Recent and choose the .CR2 file again, or even drag the CR2 file into Photoshop.
    The workaround is trivial, I just save the open document as a PSD file, then I can open the CR2 file again into a new document.
    Am I missing something obvious about what causes Photoshop to think a document has changed enough that opening the same file again should actually work?
    Thanks for your wisdom on this.

  • When i open an mp3 file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

    when I open a music file from a source other than apple, does itunes create it's own file and can I then delete the original mp3?

    If you use iTunes' default settings then when you add a file to iTunes it places a copy of the file in the iTunes media folder and it leaves the original in place.  The exception is when you drag it to the Automatically Add To iTunes folder.
    It does not convert the file.  You can delete the original if you wish.
