Attachments and backed up mailbox?

Hi, when you drag a mailbox to an external drive to make a backup, are attachments included in that folder that is copied over? Or, does one need to also back up the attachments in some way? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi George.
Yes, Mail stores the attachments with the messages themselves. To be sure that the backups you’re making would allow you to restore your mail, import them doing File > Import Mailboxes, choosing Mail for Mac OS X as the data format, and following the instructions.

    Try this ..
    On your Mac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to:  Notes
    Then reselect it.
    Give iCloud a few minutes to re sync the data.
    Other than that, try Time Machine >  http://pondini.org/TM/15m.html

  • How to take mailboxes from desktop drive to laptop and back?

    I want to copy my e-mail messages (in their user-created mailboxes) from my main G5 to my laptop so I can review them elsewhere, then return them to the G5. I thought I could just copy the Mailboxes folder (or maybe the whole massive Mail folder), place that the corresponding folder in my laptop user Library, then do the same when I get home -- replace the older mailboxes folder with a revised version.
    But when I do so, I get a mailbox in the laptop's Mail, but no messages in it.
    What am I doing wrong? This should be an easy task, I would think.
    Mac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   MacBook Pro

    Which recommendation? Did you actually read what I said at the bottom of the post you’ve quoted? And why have you quoted the entire post?
    The file format used by Mail changed drastically in Mac OS X 10.4 (Tiger). Mail 2.x knows about the old data format and can import mailboxes created by Mail 1.x, but Mail 1.x knows nothing about the new data format used by Mail 2.x. Actually, the conversion from Mail 1.x to Mail 2.x mailboxes is broken and Mail 2.x sometimes can only import Mail 1.x mailboxes as Other, but that’s another story...
    Although *.mbox packages appear to be files in Mac OS X 10.3, they’re actually folders just like in Mac OS X 10.4, but Mac OS X 10.3 treats them differently because of the .mbox suffix. Ctrl-click on an *.mbox package and choose Show Package Contents from the contextual menu to see the files it contains.
    For each mailbox, Mail 1.x stores all the messages in a single file in standard mbox format (the mbox file within the *.mbox folder/package), whereas Mail 2.x stores messages in individual *.emlx files within a Messages folder that Mail 1.x knows nothing about.
    You need something like emlx to mbox Converter or Emailchemy to convert the *.emlx files to standard mbox format in order to be able to import them (as Other / Standard mbox) in Mail 1.x.

    I am using a MacBook Pro.  I simply cannot find a way to attach images adjusted in Lightroom as attachments and/or without massive degradation in quality.  I follow the LR attach email process as specified by LR, the photos appear in the email seemingly embedded and the recipients of the email cannot save the attachment.

    You are welcome.  Just finished a chat session with an Apple support rep and confirmed the matte option no longer available.  Seems lots has changed since I bought my 17” 19 months back:).  They did say that there were after market screen films available from places like amazon
    Have never used anything like that though.  My wife has a 2008 MBP 15” with gloss and I can say it is a nice screen finish, you just have to be careful of lighting from behind you.  All my iMacs were glossy and I did learn to compensate for the added brilliance the screen brought to the photos.  The new soft proofing feature of LR5 seems to better estimate the level of brightness of the printed work, compared to past versions of the s/ware.
    In any case, in my opinion you really can’t go wrong with the apple product.  I bought my first iMac in mid 1999 and have never looked back.  I donated that machine to a pre-school in 2008, it was running OSX version 2 or 3 I think.  I did run Photoshop 7.0 on an IBM laptop for a time (windows XP).  I think I had one of the very first versions of Adobe Camera Raw on that machine.  I digress, sorry.
    The chat representative did confirm that the 17” is out of production and I’m guessing Apple found the market for the big laptop just wasn’t there.  They did mention that 17” MBP’s show up as “certified refurbished” units from time to time.  Suggest you might explore that option with a local Apple store in the UK, assuming  Apple has store front operations off this continent of course.
    Please feel free to contact me with further questions if you wish.
    Take care, Gordy

  • ICLOUD AND MOBILE.ME MAILBOXES

    I'm running 10.6.8 so I'm not icloud native. I had mobile.me and had 3 mailboxes set up. When i migrated to icloud it only kept my primary and I lost the other two and cannot for the life of me i can't figure out how to get them back. Any ideas?

    If you upgrade to Lion and create a new user account for your female partner, she should be able to use that to create a new iCloud account for herself. She might even be able to move the old MobileMe account if you move quickly enough.
    Note that when you get to me.com/move there will a sentence below the "closed" sign indicating what you are still permitted to do. In some instances, that includes "move your account to iCloud" in addition to downloading files and photos. I see that phrase when I access it from my Lion system, even though I have moved all my MobileMe accounts to iCloud.

  • Whenever I forward mails I get only the subject line as forward All attachments and text is blank

    I am currently using Windows 7 - 64 bit as my operating system. Previously this was not the case. But after I changed my operating system, problem started in forwarding my mails. Whenever I forward my mails, Only the subject line is filled. All the text, attachments and pictures from original mail are not carried alongwith.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == From the very beginning

    Close out of the camera app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    Then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    Then check your camera roll again.

  • Attachments and forums

    I am having an issue with attachments and forums. When I go to attach something to an email, or in a forum or open up an add picture part in Facebook.com, the button is basically disabled. It does not pop up or even allow me to attach anything. Also, with forums, when I click in the text area, it just selections the entire area and will not allow me to type. I can cut and it gives the option to paste but will not paste anything. If I click in the text area more than three times, the entire browser freezes and the only way i can close out is press the back button. When I go back onto the browser again, the page is blank and I have to resign in.
    Any thoughts or help would be appreciated.

    The interface for adding pictures at facebook.com will not work on the iPad (e.g., it wants to open a file select dialog for upload to Facebook). There is an iPhone/iPod Touch App for Facebook, you might investigate that. You could also investigate uploading pictures to Photobucket with the Photobucket App and including links to your picture on Facebook.
    However, I don't completely understand your explanations. I have no problems copying, cutting and pasting in Facebook forums. You might want to break this up into individual problems with a clearer explanation. Are all your problems just with Facebook email and forums?

  • Restore exchange 2010 mailbox from database and restore the mailbox to pst file

    Hello,
    I'm running exchange 2010Sp2 rollup5 ver2, the mailbox database in question is in a DAG.  The databases are being backed up by commvault. 
    So, I received a request to restore a couple mailboxes from 10 days ago and export the mailbox to PST file for archiving. 
    How would you go about the restore.  I'm thinking the database needs to be offline, so I don't mistakenly overwrite my production databases.
    Where should backup guy restore the database/log file (completely separate server from my mailbox servers?)
    Once database/logs are restored, what is the procedure to make the mailboxes visible
    Once the mailboxes are visible, what is best way to restore one to a PST file?
    thanks in advance for all your help.

    Hi
    For DB Restores with commvault you have to reed the product documantation.
    The Database must not be offline.
    I would recommend to try the following steps:
    1. Create Recovery DB on Exchange

  • How do I use edge commons composition loader to load multiple compositions with a next and back button?

    I am working on an interactive book and have set up each page as a separate composition in edge.
    I am using  the edge commons JS library to load multiple compositions into a main composition.
    You can see how this works here: Edge Commons - Extension Library for Edge Animate and Edge Reflow | EdgeDocks.com
    The way the edge commons tutorial is set up requires a button for each composition i want to load. I am interested in loading multiple compositions with a "next" and "back" button, and a "swipe left, "swipe right" gesture on the content symbol that each composition is loaded into. I also need the swipe features on the content symbol not to interfere with the interactive elements on the loaded composition.
    Please suggest a solution that will work without adding additional scripts beyond edge commons and jquery.

    Sort of. I'm using this code inside an action for a button symbol. But it doesn't work perfectly. Trying to debug it.
    Let me know if you have any luck.
    //Check to see if pageCounter already exists
    if (typeof EC.pageCounter === 'undefined') {
      // it doesn't exist so initialize it to first page
        EC.pageCounter = 2;
    //check if the page is only 1 digit -- patch for single digit
    if (EC.pageCounter < 9) {
       // it is, so we need to pad a 0 on the front.
      EC.pageCounterString = "0" + EC.pageCounter;
      //e.g.  01 ...09,11,12,13....115,222352,,....

  • Is there a major flaw with Iphoto in regards to organizing and backing up?

    Is there a major flaw with Iphoto in regards to organizing and backing up? And how should I proceed??
    Here is my story. I have moved roughly 15,000 photos from 7 computers (4 PCs and 3 Macs - basically everyone's computer in the family) onto one external hard drive. The photos were taken by many different digital cameras, are sparsely labeled, and have the most random names and folders. There are a LOT of duplicates. MY MISSION - label and back them up.
    The way I normally deal with photos/DATA is this: I plug my camera into my Mac and immediately think about organizing and backing them up. With "Preview" I look at photos (and decide which one I like), create a folder called "where-ever I took these photos" and drag them into that folder. The problem with Iphoto is that you have no ability to control folders, unlike many other applications.
    For example, in Itunes you can rename an artist, or even an album, and it will automatically appear in an updated folder. If you alter a photo in Photoshop, it makes you save it is a new file. In Iphoto you cannot make the same "root level" changes without making duplicates. From what I understand, you can place photos into an Album and then export that album (which makes duplicates). Iphoto will rename each duplicate file and then place it in the correct folder. The problem here is I have no idea where the original is to delete it.
    Basically I want to create folders called "Trip to Italy 2003" or "Rachel's Wedding" and place all the photos associated with that event in those folders. The problem I run into is that I have a bunch of duplicates. I have heard of a program called Duplicate Annihilator which has gotten favorable reviews. If I import them into Iphoto all the photos are placed in random named folders. I say random because some of the photos were taken on cameras that didn't have the date set correctly. Hence some of my photos will appear in a labyrinth of folders called "Modified / 2001 / Roll 17 / DCM482 / Image25874654.jpg"
    I am totally willing to wipe my Iphoto library clean and start again if there is a way to organize the photos as described above. Eventually I will take these folders and save them on a data DVD.
    Thanks to anyone who can help.
    Gary

    You do not need to delve into the folders within the iPhoto Library via the finder to access any photo. That is all done within iPhoto itself. If you need a photo for use outside of iPhoto read Terence Devlin's treatise on file access. iPhoto is a DAM application - Digital Asset Management, not a folder manager. There's a big difference. You can use keywords, album and smart albums to organize your photos.
    If you still have the original files you might consider what I do. I rename each file with the date it was taken using the international date format: YYYY-MM-DD-001.jpg. You can download the demo version ofMedia Expression and automatically rename each folder of photos with the EXIF date and a sequential number. This makes chronological searching and sorting much easier both in iPhoto and the Finder.
    If you want to not only manage the photos but the folders then Expression Media will let you do both. It will let you rename files after being imported into a catalog, move them between folders, add ITPC metadata to the files, create virtual albums called Supplemental categories, and much, much more. I use it as my primary DAM and iPhoto for special projects like books, slideshows, calendars, etc.

  • What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean?

    What is difference between Managed Bean and Backing Bean? Please guide me how to create them and when to use them?
    Please post sample for both beans.

    Hi,
    managed beans and backing beans are quite the same in that the Java object is managed by the JavaServer Faces framework. Manage in this respect means instantiation. The difference is that backing beans contain component "binding" references, which managed beans usually don't. Do backing beans are page specific versions of managed beans.
    Managed beans are configured either in the faces-config.xml file, or using ADF Faces and ADFc, in the adfc-config.xml file

  • How do you use forward and back button on mouse and use "zoom" in web browser.

    Ok so apparently this forum is ruled with an iron fist or something my very honest and truthful problems with these issues seem to have been instantly deleted in my last discussion?
    I'll try this once more.
    1) How do you use the forward and back button on a mouse without having to buy a product like Steer Mouse? There must be a way to do this without having to buy a program given it's such a useful feature that 99% of users need. I don't want to spend hours researching something that should already work. Any advice?
    2) How do you zoom in for web browsers like Chrome without it globally zooming in everything on the monitor (even background applications). I don't want to zoom in background applications. I want to be able to zoom in the web browser and still maintain all the features like the side bar, not just a little magnifying glass type thing.
    I'm currently zooming in with the CTRL-Middle Mouse button, but I can't find a way to use this feature so it's useful to browse the web it seems to not scale the browser correctly but rather is a global zoom. Any solution for this?

    Thanks so much!
    Like I said I am new to Apple products so it's still unclear to me which programs I do or don't need as I'm setting up and configuring all my software and devices.
    The Logitech Control Center appears to work perfectly for what I was trying to do!
    I accidently clicked "This helped me" instead of "This Solved My Question", sorry about that this was a solve!

  • Problems with Next and Back Buttons ActionScript 3.0

    Hi,
    I have set up a Back, Play and Next buttons in a slideshow I am making.  The next and back buttons work correctly until it gets to the end. 
    If I press the Next button it goes back to what appears to be Frame 1 and will not go to the next slide. If I press the Back button it will then go to Frame 201 and If I press next again it will go to Frame 1.  It will only go back and forth in between those frames.
    If I press the Back button from the beginning it goes through the slide show correctly then it gets stuck at Frame 1.  If I press next button it goes to Frame 121 and gets stuck in between 121 and 1.
    I can't figure this out please help.
    My code on Frame 1 is:
    stop();
    play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playslideshow);
    function playslideshow(event:MouseEvent) { gotoAndPlay(2); }
    forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_2);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_2(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(40);
    back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_8);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_8(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(281);
    My code on Frame 40 is:
    forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_7);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_7(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(121);
    back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_9);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_9(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(1);
    My code on Frame 121 is:
    forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_3);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_3(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(201);
    back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_10);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_10(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(40);
    My code on Frame 201 is:
    forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_4(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(281);

    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_11(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(121);
    My code on Frame 281 is:
    forward_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_5);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_5(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(1);
    back_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_12);
    function fl_ClickToGoToAndStopAtFrame_12(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(201);

    I found the solution!  Flash CS5 Tutorial 6 Click On Button Go To Another Frame.avi - YouTube
    I had to Convert to Keyframes each frames I wanted to jump to on the buttons layer.  Then highlight the button and give each another instance name! Like forward1_btn, forward2_btn, back1_btn, back2_btn...  I did that and adjusted the action-script for each button.
    Frame 1
    stop();
    play_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,playslideshow);
    function playslideshow(event:MouseEvent)
    gotoAndPlay(2);
    forward1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Shoot_1);
    function Shoot_1(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(40);
    back1_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Back_1);
    function Back_1(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(281);
    Frame 40
    forward2_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Shoot_2);
    function Shoot_2(event:MouseEvent):void
      gotoAndStop(121);
    back5_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, Back_5);
    function Back_5(event:MouseEvent):void
