Attachment Downloading in Mail - How do you know the status of the download

Hi,
I'm trying to send a keynote presentation from my iMac to my MacBook and it doesn't seem to be working. The attachment shows up in my email, I click on it, and it doesn't really do anything. Is there a way to check the status of the download, or clear all the downloads for mail? I think it's just the size of the file, because pages files work, and even very small keynote files, but not a 3 slide keynote presentation.
Any help with this would be much appreciated.
Brandon

Hi Brandon
If you want to know quite a lot: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAN
In short a Local Area Network is your network at home. Both your computers are somehow conncted to the internet. Most people don't want to afford seperate internet lines for each computer they own, so they build a LAN.
Many internet providers will give you a modem with more than one network port so you can plug in more than one computers. If there's only one port, most people connect a router to get more ports. If you have wireless at home, you also have a LAN.
Now to the better options: On both copmuters: Go to system preferences > Sharing. Enable File Sharing. To learn more about it, just click on the question mark button at the lower right.
After you did this, open a Finder window. In the sidebar there will be a new item: Shared. If you open the triangle you'll see the computer name of your other computer. This can take a few seconds to show up.
Now you just place the files you want to share in your Public folder so the other Mac can access it.
Regards,

  • How Would you Know if Mountain Lion is Downloading?

    Hi. App Store had me update the info in the billing section which I did. When I updated it and click done it came back to the Mountain Lion page still with the icon Buy App. I clicked that for a second time but it said (something like) that I I've already purchased it. I noticed there's the Mountain Lion logo on the Launchpad and it seems to be downloading but there seems to be no progress bar. It seems like it's not moving although we're only subscribed to about 1Mbps with our landline based broadband.
    Is it downloading and have I purchased it properly? I've forgotten what the icon display once you buy something because I don't purchase that often (the last was Lion from last year). I know once it's installed, the icon says installed but when you're downloading it should the app say "downloading" instead of going back to "Buy App"?.
    Thank you in advance.
    God bless.

    Hello:
    If you want to check the progress, go to the app store>purchases.  If something is downloading, the progress bar will be there.

  • When typing in a URL in an outgoing e-mail how do you make it clickable for the recipient

    When I send an e-mail to a friend and I use Internet Explorer I can include a URL in the body of the message that turns blue and is clickable by the recipient.ie:he easily reaches the website.
    In using Firefox I can type the same URL in,it doesn't change
    color and the recipient has to enter it in some other fashion in order to reach the website.

    It sounds like the album metadata is incorrect, or differs from song to song in iTunes.  Albums with various artists will play properly assuming all the songs are tagged with the same identical album name, as well as the track number.  For the Halo 2 Soundtrack, metadata should look like this:
    Song: <Song Title>
    Artist: <Song Artist>
    Album: Halo 2, Vol. 1 (Original Soundtrack)
    Genre: Soundtrack
    I had a similar problem with my imported Cowboy Bebop albums and the mixture of artists/album names.  Once I adjusted the metadata, all of them play in the correct order just by selecting the Album from the available list or in Coverflow.

  • How do you know when you have the latest software updates

    how do you know when yo have the lastest software updates on your older IPOD?  I just purchased on home theater to replace one, Samsung, I was assured that the system would run my IPOD.  I've sync'd my IPOD to my computer a number of times before the purchase and since.  Samsung is telling me that I need to update my IPOD.  My ITunes keeps telling me there aren't any updates out there.

    Read the top of the page I gave you the link to. The
    latest update that you do not have only added more
    support for the Shuffle. If you are not having any
    problems leave as is. If you have problems then
    download the update. It will ask you for your user
    ID. Once you install the updater, your computer will
    reboot.
    This is what it says at the download site.. iPod Software 1.0
    * iPod with video
    Everything is working fine Barb with the ipod but I was under the assumption that if an update is available, I should download it...

  • How do you know if the Maverick download is happening?

    I am now trying to download Maverick .. & have been hearing a whirring sound. But it starts then stops?
    - BUT I can't tell if it's done. I've kept the "page" on the screen, and the "download" button shows grey & it shows "Downloading"
    - BUT I don't see any circles, to show anything is happening.
    - NOR can I see anything on download in Finder. I've been checking the apple icon to see & it still shows Lion, 10.7.5 that I got in 2012. I have 4GB.
    So, How do you know if the Maverick download is happening - & when it's done?
    Last, do you have to restart the computer? I haven't been able to find a "how to" about this download.
    Thanks

    With App Store open, purchases or updates pane (can't recall which), CMD+R to reload the page, and you should see a progress bar. Should look like this:

  • In Mavericks Mail, how do you attach a PDF (single-page or multi-page) without the PDF being embedded in the message?

    In Mavericks Mail, how do you attach a PDF (single-page or multi-page) without the PDF being embedded in the message?

    I attached a .doc file to the message and it appeared as an icon, so I did not have to convert it. I attached a .jpg image — it appeared as a full image, but when I Command+clicked the image, the view as icon window did not appear on the screen. Likewise, I again checked the Mail Menu Bar, and did see 'View as icon.' Side note: I routinely use Mavericks Mail in Classic Mode, so I decided to try both modes. Same results in both modes. I checked my Mail Preferences, but couldn't find anything there, either. I'll continue to look around, but this has me stumped. Thanks for your assistance.  

  • How do you know when the person that you've shared the file with has downloaded the file?

    After the person get the email that says "I am sharing these files with you.   Click on the image below to view or download your file.", how do you know that they've viewed or downloaded the file?  Do you get an email message or is there something in the shared status that lets you know?

    Thank you for your post. Although this is a feature for Buzzword, right now it's not possible to know if someone has viewed a file you've sent via Share. We are working to integrate Share/My Files/Buzzword so that this will be corrected in future.
    Let me know if you have additional questions.

  • How do you know if your Iphone app is connecting to the internet?

    I'm a brand new Iphone user and I have a question about apps.  I only have the smallest data plan.  I'm wondering how do you know if your app (or any app you download) once opened connects to the internet?
    For instance I have a Netflix subscription.  When I hit the Netflix app is that connecting to the internet?  When I watch a movie or tv in my own que is that still on the internet?
    Or what about the Kindle app or iBooks?  Is it on the internet to read?
    Those are just two small examples.  I'm having a hard time figuring out which apps to download based on if they connect to the internet for their use.

    As a general rule, if the app stores all of its data locally on your phone, a data connection is not needed for that app to function properly. If the app does not store data locally on your phone...streaming apps(Netflix), the built in Maps app, etc., a data connection will be required for the app to function properly. You can minimize your cellular data usage by only using such apps when connected to available WiFi. You also have the ability to turn cellular data completely off in settings: Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data>Off. Best to completely read an apps description before installing such on your phone. If a data connection is required for the app to function, it will state such in the app's description.

  • How do you know when your MacBook is infected?

    Hey All. Well my question is how do you know when your MacBook is infected with a virus? I came off windows and i have norton antivirus so i have something to tell me there. But on the Mac OS you rarely get viruses and i dont have a anitvirus program, so how do you know when you have one? And what does it do?
    Thanks!

    Since no ones got one that I know of it is hard to say. I figure that when the day comes that someone writes a Mac virus you will know real quick what happens. If your concerned you could use ClamXav. I use it if I download something for my wife's PC but have never found anything yet.

  • How do you know if the iPhone...

    How do you know if the iPhone that I bought new in fact it is a refurbished product?
    Since I upgraded to the latest version of IOS, is worse. The wi-fi does not work anymore, 3G network makes it even more hard to get, some apps that should work, close or take a long time to load, even the screen to make phone calls has long recharge times. Do you have suggestions? Thank you!
    E' possibile sapere se l'iPhone che hai acquistato per nuovo in realtà è un prodotto ricondizionato?
    Da quando l'ho aggiornato all'ultima versione di IOS, è peggiorato. Il wi-fi non funziona più, la rete 3G fà ancora più fatica a ricevere, alcune app che dovrebbero funzionare, si chiudono o ci mettono molto tempo per caricarsi, perfino la schermata per telefonare ha tempi di ricarica lunghi. Avete suggerimenti? Grazie!

    Hi, thank you for having responded to me so quickly. Excuse me instead for the delay with which you answer.
    I tried "lifetime" or a similar word in my preferences panel but I could not find. I have the software in Italian.
    I attach screens. You see something that might look like the "lifetime"? Thank you very much!

    Hello, Suzanne. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Unfortunately there isn't a list available at this time for applications that are specific for your iOS/Software version.  However, once you know which iOS/Software version you have installed, you can browser various applications and look for ones that meet your system requirements.  I have included a screenshot below on how to look for this information.
