An extra attachemnt is beign send when I send word and exel files

When i email word or excel files, my recipient receives an extra file ATT00035 or something like this. i have one friend (with PC) that said his antiv virus picked up a virus, but i have done soem tests of my own and it only seems to send this extra attachment to PC users, and on the PC that i sent it to (with the latest Nortons systems works) it did not recognize anything? also if I CC myself it only inlcuded the orignal files.
Im usign an intel macbook.
Any ideas whats going on?

This is no virus or Office macro virus.
Are you using the Send Windows Friendly Attachments option with Mail?
If not, what the Windows users are seeing is the Apple resource fork for the attached file which is invisible to fellow Mac users.
Using the Send Windows Friendly Attachments option with Mail is designed to strip/remove the Apple resource fork from attached files.

If you are already using Send Windows Friendly for attachments, are you using RTF or Plain Text for message composition and are you using signature?
Are you placing all attachments below all message text including your signature if one is used?

  • Firefox crashes when opening PDF, Word and other files

    Recently, Firefox stopped being able to open PDF files within the Firefox program. It crashes whether one tries to have it open the file or just download it. The same occurs when trying to open a Word doc. It does this in safe mode too. Since I am studying for a college degree and use these features a lot, I've had to stop using Firefox. This is a problem, because my university uses Firefox for its classes and other programs aren't as compatible. I've tried EVERYTHING suggested on line, both in Firefox help pages and in user pages. Nothing works.

    Fix the [http://browser.iyogi.com/firefox/firefox-not-opening-pdf.html '''PDF not opening in Mozilla Firefox'''] issue by reinstalling Adobe Reader. You need to uninstall Adobe Reader and re-install it to get the issue fixed. It is important to uninstall all versions of Adobe Reader that you may have in your system. Also, take care of installing the latest Adobe Reader for the browser.

  • TS3899 How do I change the address that my iphone sends when i send mail.  I have deleted the account but it still shows up as the account that will be replyed to if people hit reply.

    How do I change the address that my iphone sends when i send mail.  I have deleted the account but it still shows up as the account that will be replyed to if people hit reply.

    Hey There I didn't need to change it as it shows my correct name in my icloud account. The problem is on my Mac where it still shows my Full name as my partners name.
    For eg. if I send an email from "Mail" on mac and I use my icloud account then the name that shows up is my partners name when the email is received. If I send an email from the Icloud Mail box that I log into on my browser then the name that shows up when the email is received is my name which is correct.
    When I go into preferences in "Mail" on my Mac to change my name, the name is ghosted out and doesn't allow me to change it ! ? It is here that it still show my partners name ?

  • My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them (or download and open them) from an email. I do I get this to stop? It's really aggravating.

    My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them from an email. Downloading them and opening them doesn't help. How do I make this stop? I don't use iLife and don't want to; my clients are using Office and it's easier for me, except when I have to copy and paste everything they send me from an iLife file back to Word and Excel. Help!!! It's like Apple has become Microsoft, forcing us to use their apps.

    Do you have Word & Excel installed, if yes, navigate in the finder to an example of each, right click and select 'Get Info' scroll down to 'Open With' and select the appropriate program, check the box that says 'Change All'

  • When converting multiple word and excel docs to a combined PDF random pages have blue background in the finalized PDF.

    I have a user using Acrobat 10. It was installed two weeks ago and initially had no problems. Today she reported that when she tries to convert multiple word and excel docs by selecting them, and right clicking on them to select convert/combine to PDF, random pages in the finished PDF have a blue background. I did some searching online and can find no information about this problem. Can anyone here shed some light on this issue and maybe point me in the direction of a solution? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    Hi Gilad,
    So, something I didn't consider was that this could be a setting in the office docs. The reason I didn't consider this was be cause we tested multiple docs and had similar results each time. I went back and looked into this possibility and found a setting in word that was causing this issue. Although the word doc showed no page color when opened in word, if I went to "Page Layout" -> "Page Color", a shade of blue was selected. By selecting "No Color", and then converting/combining the docs to PDF we got the desired result. Thanks again for your reply!

  • In Pages, what do you do when converting to Word and get "unknown error occurred" How can you fix the conversion?

    Can anybody help me. In Pages how can I deal with "unknown error occurred" when converting to Word?

    Thanks for you suggestion roaminggnome. I tried typing in 13019 like you said and it gave me a few options to try and fix it but none of them worked (of course). I fiddled around with it for a while some more on my own and some how got it to work again, lol. Thanks again though for offering a solution.

  • Extra zeros in numeric fields when I create spreadsheet from data files

    I created a form with Live Cycle, and then in Adobe I use the option "create a spread sheet from data files" to import the answers to a xls file.
    I have two problems with this action: the first one is that I get 8 extra zeros in each numeric field, the second one is that fields are ordered by type and not by appearance.
    I tried a different approach importing directly in Excel, in that way there are no extra zeros and the order is correct, but I get just one form each time, and in a "stairways" fashion (i. e. first field in A1, second in B2, and so on)
    I'd appreciate any help

    Where do you find the command "create a spread sheet from data files"?
    Anyway i have a similar problem: when i export data in a .csv file and than i import it in excel, i always get 8 extra zeros... how can i solve the problem?

  • Does your gmail account get stuck in "Sending" when you send an email in FF4b4?

    Everytime, since I updated the beta to Beta4, when I try to send an email in Gmail, it tells me that its "sending". And i cannot cancel the process nor go to the inbox, it stucks with the notice "Loading.."

    For what it's worth, GMail does appropriately send the e-mail. So if you click send, wait a little bit (it's easier to gauge if you don't have any attachments, if you do give it what you feel is an appropriate amount of time) and then click "reload" you'll be back at your inbox. You can verify via the Sent Mail folder that the e-mail was indeed sent, and everyone I've emailed has gotten them.

  • When I place Ps and Ai files into Id it gets pixelated. How do I fix this?

    I'm making some brochures for a church and I created the text and designs in Ai. When I go to place the Ai file in Id the text and images appear all pixelated! I have tried to do the same thing with Ps files and the text gets pixelated their too. Am I doing something wrong? I have heard that saving the files as a PDF and then using that PDF should help the problem but that has not worked for me either.
    I'm using Adobe CC for all the programs and I'm running Windows 7.

    Sorry for the incredibly late response. We hit the busy season and just have not had to cope with the print results.
    Equipment:
    Canon C5030 Buisness printer.
    Win 7 64 bit
    Adobe CC (all programs are updated to newest CC versions)
    In InDesign Display Performance is set to High Quality Display
    If I am working on and 11in X 17in Indesign document and I bring in some custom logos from Photoshop (the Ps file is 11in X 17in 300ppi)
    no scaling or anything size changes are done it is a simple drag and drop onto the document..
    The Ps file looks rough around the edges and when printed it is "fuzzy" around the edges of the Ps Image. all text created in Indesign looks crisp and perfect.

  • Adobe Acrobat balks when trying to acquire and print files in Safari, doesn't  happen in Chrome

    It works OK when using Chrome, but in Safari the message "Before proceeding, you must first launch Adobe Acrobat and accept the end user agreement" blocks any progress, this is while an older version of Acrobat is running.

    Then check to see if there are any updates for it, if there are not then you can try soem basics. Reset the SMC and PRAM, this may take 2--3 attempts each, then restart in Safe Mode to clear some caches. If the problem persists then contact Adobe for support.  To learn how to do each reset please use the following links:

  • Cs5 InDesign crashing when exporting print pdf and markup file?

    We just did our upgrade yesterday from cs4 to cs5. Two things that I have discovered so far that I haven’t been able to figure out.
    I need to create a pdf from a file...I go to export — print pdf — this QUITS (if I do the interactive pdf it works okay but I need a print ready one. I had to print a postscript file  — then distill it in acrobat — so far, knock on wood that works but is time consuming.
    I tried to export a — InDesign MarkUp file (imdl), the new interchange to go from 5 to 4 — I was thinking okay...I will just take the cs5 file back to cs4 and make the pdf there but when making the imdl file to open in cs4 I also crash.
    any help would be appreciated!

    I had a major problem with exporting CS5 Indesign interactive PDF doc (270pgs) it would crash reasonbly consistently, other times behave OK?  After many hours reading forums, and Adobe help desk I found my own work-around which I want to share (as I couldn't believe it was so simple and worked!)
    OK..so the doc has navigation buttons and hyperlinks all the way through....I Exported half the doc.  Then the other half.  Then I combined in Acrobat. 
    There it is....simple and boy am I happy now!!

  • Internal Server Error  when trying to upload and manage files

    The instructor was experiencing this difficulty on Tuesday 1/13, after the notice was closed. I just
    went into their site again(1/14/09 2:48pm), launched iTunes U and received the same error after clicking on 'Upload And Manage Files' in their iTunes U page.
    I was able to reproduce the same error on our iTunes U site.

    I have only found two that work correctly. They were created the same way and permissions are the same. I don't know why one works over the other.
