? about keeping files in original order when sending attachments

Hi there, I have a question about sending attachments. Is it possible for the files/folders to remain in the order that I have originally put them in my documents etc...? When I go to send an attachment it automatically rearranges the folders in alphabetical order. Can anything be done to prevent or over ride this function? BTW: I have the new macbook with leopard.
Cheers,
Deirdre

anyone???

File extensions become corrupted when sending attachments in Mail

Hi,
Since I upgraded to Leopard the file extensions on attachments that I send in Mail are corrupted in transit. The problem is not irremediable: .doc may change to .doc00 or .docis or something like that. The recipient can delete the extra characters when saving or opening the attachment, and the file is intact. But this is a bit of a bore, as I have to send attachments all the time. It doesn't matter whether I send from my iMac G5 or my MacBookPro, and it doesn't matter whether the recipient has a Mac or a PC.
Any collective wisdom out there?
Many thanks,
Anna

Some people have found that not having accented characters or spaces in the file name cures it. The bug has been reported.

Maintaining iPhoto sort order when sending to iDVD

Hello - I have a few iPhoto Events I'd like to put on a DVD as separate chapters.
However, the sorting order I set when viewing Events (using the title) is not preserved when I send them to iDVD. iDVD seems to get them sorted by file name.
A work-around is to export the slides by title (not file name) then re-import them into iDVD but this takes time and brain power.
Is there a faster way to preserve the viewing order when sending iPhoto Event pictures to iDVD?
All help gratefully received.
David.

David,
Create an Album in iPhoto (one for each slideshow) and arrange it the way you want. The Media Pane in iDVD should see the Albums and let you select one. You can drag a whole album into the Slideshow creation window and iDVD will import it, preserving the album order.
Regards.

Keeping the album songs order, when importing songs from different sources

Hello
I imported lots of songs into my itunes library from various sources (itunes store, CD's, and audio files converted from my vinyl records) This way, songs from a specific artist, and sometimes from a specific album, could come from different sources.
Now, I hope to arrange all the songs from a specific album to appear in the appropriate order, but I just can't find a way of doing this! The songs just appear in the way iTunes sorts them, without any relation to the original order of the album. Even more, in the iPod itself, the order changes once again with no appearant reason! (Interestingly enough, when I import all the songs of a specific album from one source, the order is kept)
I tried changing the names on the files in itunes to include serial numbers (01, 02 and so on, at the names of the songs). but then again, for some reason, no order is kept.
How can I sort the songs in the album according to the proper order? I don't want to use a special playlist for each album.
Thank you in advance for your replies
Zak.

iTunes sorts things in thew following way (based on having the correct ID3 tag info)
Album > Disc number > Track Number
if you sort things by Album
iTunes does NOT take anything from the file name unless no ID3 tag info is present in the file, then you will see the file name appear as the track name and all other fields blank. ID3 tags are the way most meta-data is handled noawadays.
Hope that helps.

Keeping certain songs in order when shuffling a playlist

Is there a way to keep certain tracks in a playlist in order when shuffling the rest of the playlist?
For instance, Pure Prairie League -- "Falling in and out of love" & "Amie".
Or most of the end of The Beatles Abbey Road CD???

When sending attachments in Gmail in FF, my internet connection breaks

When I try to send an attachment of any type in gmail in Firefox as a browser the attempt stalls, fails and then my internet connection breaks. I've googled this and no one else seems to have this issue. It seems local to my desktop and I've reinstalled FF and tried the beta for 4.0 and it still happens without fail.
It doesn't matter what kind of attachment or size, this happens when I try to send attachments in Gmail.

For what it's worth, I've seen this exact problem from Internet Explorer 8:
 
1. start a new email at the Gmail site in the web browser 
2. click "attach a file" 
3. select a file in the file dialog box & click OK 
4. network connection immediately drops. (I've been pinging Google in the background and the ping gets interrupted exactly when I click OK." 
5. Network connection is down until I go through the Windows 7 "repair network connection" procedure. Apparently the network gateway is lost. 
When this happened, I tried attaching the same file to an email using a *different* Gmail account, and it worked. 
I think this is either a problem with the ISP (Earthlink / Timewarner) or Google. I don't think IE or Firefox is causing the problem.

E-mail application crashing when sending attachments

I have configured the default e-mail app on my phone with the settings for my ISP (TWC). This morning, I tried sending a 2MB picture as an attachment to my work e-mail. Immediately after hitting send, the e-mail app crashed. I tried two or three more times, each with the same result. I ended up having to use a different e-mail app to send the message.
When I came home from work, I tried to send the attachment again. Same result. I then tried with progressively smaller attachments, and still got the same result. I tried sending an e-mail to myself with an attachment, but the e-mail app crashed. It is now apparent that regardless of where the message is sent and what size file attachment there is, the e-mail app will crash.
I'd rather not have to remove the e-mail app and set it back up with the server settings again. I've had many Android phones over the years, and have never encountered this issue. I would like to think that this is some new bug that would hopefully be corrected with the Lollipop update....That is if it ever comes to the Motorola Droid Maxx.

c_brookhar,
Sorry to hear that you are having some troubles with those email attachments. Have you been able to send attachments with another email account from the device? When attempting to send are you using WiFi or cellular data? If you are able to send attachments from another account, it may be best to remove the email account and re-add it back to the device. http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-50017/

Any thoughts about this: "File Wipe 02" problem when opening a QT movie?

I have created an movie using iMovie 4.0.1. This movie was created in Dec 2005, and I have been able to watch it using QT many times, although I haven't opened it for probably two months. When I created it in iMovie I chose to "Share" it as a CD quality QT video which I saved to my desktop and later dragged to my second internal hard drive.
Today I discovered that when I click on the movie file in the finder, I get this message: "The movie file "Wipe 02" cannot be found. Without this file, the movie cannot play properly." And, I cannot, therefore, open the movie.
If I try to open the movie by first opening QT and the doing a File > Open file > filename I get this alert: "QuickTime cannot open the file: "filename.mov"
an unknown error occurred (-128)"
There's more. In Jan 06 I saved a copy of the .mov file on a DVD-R to keep a backup. When I discovered today that I could not open the original on my powermac, I tried to open the copy, and I got the same result. I then tried to open the movie from the DVD-R using a friends three week old macbook and I got the exact same errors and alerts.
So, why does my iMovie created movie that played just fine a couple of month ago suddenly stop opening? What do these errors and alerts mean? Have I lost my wonderful home movie forever?

Sounds as if you may have created "reference" movies which depend on the original "standalone" clips, rendered transitions, etc. in the iMovie project as reseources. Check the files size. Is it unusually small -- i.e., measured in KBs rather than MBs or GBs?

Results from a form submission does not keep the fields in order when I get the email

I created a form and it works fine but when I get the email
back the fields are out of the tab order or out of wack meaning
they are not in order that I set the acceptabilities to.
Is this something in the Action script I have to add and what
would it look like or do I need to edit the CGI script?
I can provide a link or script let me know.
Thanks

This is action script 3.0 Flash CS3
Below is what I receive back after I test it but it is not in
order. I guess I assumed that if the tab order is correct and the
are layout in that order and the code in the form is in order it
would come back the same way. Mostly I am trying to narrow down the
problem and my guess is the cgi script or am I wrong? I have
attached the code for the form.
Thank You for you time

Files extentions are changed when sending Mail

I lately I discovered that whan sending an attached file like pdf or others, the an email, the receiver gets a modify extention file. For example .pdf become .pdfq or .pdff. The same modification appears on my sent folder. I call Apple but they couldn't find an explication. (we reinstall Mail but no success) .

Ok, resolved

Chinese Characters in Body of the Email when sending attachments.

I have google and exchange accounts connected to mac mail. Whenever I send an attachments through the exchange account via mac mail, the recipient receives the attachment however is filled with Chinese characters in the body of the email that look like this (⁥敧敮慲整⁤祢䔠捸慬浩牥吠浥汰瑡⁥摅瑩牯漠㘰ㄺ㨶㈳䘠楲慤ⱹ㤠䨠湡慵祲㈠㄰‵ⴭാ㰊呓䱙⁅祴数琽硥⽴獣㹳⹐慥捥㌱㙥〭㉢ⵤ㐴㜳㠭㐸ⴴ散㜸挴㌳㌳㑢笠਍䴉剁䥇㩎〠浣〠浣〠瑰਍ൽ䰊⹉慥捥㌱㙥〭㉢ⵤ㐴㜳㠭㐸ⴴ散㜸) and goes on for 10-15 lines even when there is no content in the email.
The OSX that I am running is Yosemite Version 10.10. Does anyone have a resolution to this problem? Thanks

It looks like bogus chinese created when a message encoded as utf-8 is read as if it were encoded as utf-16.
See if the people who run the exchange server can help, if that is the only account where this happens. Such systems often botch encodings. I don't know of anything you could do at your end beyond playing with the Windows Friendly attachment setting in Mail.

2 new and strange things when sending attachments

Hello,
I can't isolate what caused any change but suddenly on my computer at my office, when I try to add an attachment, with no body copy, it will not show. I am forced to type at least 1 letter in the body for the attachment to appear when I upload it, then I remove the typed letter.
Coincidentally, if I add an attachment to an existing body of copy, the attachment only shows up at the end of the letter. Previously, I could insert an attachment where ever I placed the cursor. No more.
More oddly, this does not happen at all on my home computer which has the same OS System and mail.
Have I accidentally hit a preference and changed my email? Please let me know if this sounds familiar. Or please inform me how to rebuild my mail settings.
Thank you.
Al

I just printed your front panel on a HP Color Laserjet 4500 and got an accurate printout. My Deskjet 932 ink jet do okay except for the colors. So much is dependent on the printer and it's driver. If it's a low res ink jet and you've got a high res screen, then compromises have to made in translating that high resolution image to a low resolution output. There are printer options (standard, postscript, bitmap) that you can experiment with and I'm sure your printer has settings that can be adjusted as well. You could also look for an updated printer dirver or try a different printer.

How keep original order of photos in iPhoto album when transferring to Photo Stream?

I want my carefully organized photos in a iPhoto Album to remain in SAME order when sending the album to my iPad from my MacBook Pro via Photo Stream. How can I do this? Also, does anyone know how to keep the captions below photos when using Photo Stream?

I want my carefully organized photos in a iPhoto Album to remain in SAME order when sending the album to my iPad from my MacBook Pro via Photo Stream. How can I do this?
Are you asking about "My Photo Stream" or a "Shared Photo Stream"?
"My Photo Stream" is only a temporary buffer, not meant for long term storage. You have no control over the order of the photos in the stream. Mostly they will be ordered by the date.
"Shared Photo Streams" will be ordered in the same order as add the photos. SO you can control the sequence by adding the photos one by one.
The captions will not be transferred, only the file names.

How to keep User Order when exporting a collection?

I made a collection of about 300 VC's, chosen from many folders in my catalogue. These images were taken over a 10 year period, using 3 different cameras and having different names and file types. The collection was sorted by "User Order". I spent a good deal of time organizing the collection so that the images made visual sense when shown as a slide show on a digital album.
I exported the collection to my hard drive as jpegs, and checked the box to place them back in my catalogue, in a designated subfolder within my parent folder. All went well except they are now completely out of order, and that order makes no logical sense whatsoever - not by date, metadata, filename, attributes, nothing that I can figure out. I have to start all over again to reorder them - something that will take several hours.
What did I do wrong? How can I keep my designated user order when I export a collection?
I am using LR 4.3.
Thanks for your replies.

Hi Rene,
Lightroom does not maintain user order upon exporting. It would make no sense when not exporting back to catalog, but when exporting back to catalog I can see that it may be desirable - consider making a feature request (Idea) here:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/new
In the mean time, I *think* what most people do to assure export ordering is to name the files according to desired order, then sort by filename. I could be wrong about that, but that's all I got.
Beware: If said approach is adopted, one would not be able to do incremental exports and maintain such ordering (e.g. when single image added to publish service), so all files would need to be re-exported if such change was made.
I have requested access to sort order and added-order via plugin for plugin-assisted remedy, but so far no go.
Another idea (which may not be acceptable) is to use capture-time to maintain sort order of exported photos (via a plugin like Exportant), then it would be easy enough to maintain user order by manipulating capture time (of exported photos I mean, post-export), but then you'd lose the true capture-time, granted: capture time could be put into some other field, but that might foul things up downstream... hmm - sorry for rambling/brain-storming out loud.
Maybe somebody else has a better idea.
Rob
