Attching images for Outlook

Hi All, When sending an email to a user of Outlook with a picture as an attachment, the recipient has to double click the attchment and then click 'open' to see the image in a viewer program. What a pain!!!
How can I attach an image in my 'Mail' app and the recipient just see it there amongst the text!!? Just like other Mac user recipients!!
Thanks
Adam

Hello Adam.
The Mail.app displays all image/photo attachments inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default.
Depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such attachments may appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when the message is opened by the recipient (as with the Mail.app) or as attached files only which must be opened separately for which the sender has no control over.
The only thing you can do differently is using an HTML editor of choice to included an embedded image (which are not true attachments). Save the finished document and open the file with Safari.
At the Safari menu bar, go to File and select Mail Contents of This Page. The document with embedded image opened with Safari will be copied to a new Mail.app message which will be send in its entirety.
IMO, way to much trouble for Windoze Outlook users.

Signature image for outlook

I am trying to create a signature image for outlook but the image is loosing sharpness when the mail is delivered. What is the ideal work flow to create a signature image?

My workflow would be as follows, as I tested it and found the most satisfying for creating signatures for emails:
Preferably use a graphic tablet and a stylus to create a hand signature
In Illustrator create a regular A4/Letter document
Use the Brush tool: Caligraphic Brush, e.g. 5pt Oval
Draw a large, comfortable signature
Turn on Window>Pixel View and adjust the size of the signature for your final output. After scaling down the path, the 5pt brush might be too large, you can either pick smaller brush 3pt or manipulate with the path/stroke size. Keep it a bit thicker rather than thinner, it will look nicer.
Save for web: GIF, Grayscale, Transparency
Voila. Good luck.

Set background color or image in Outlook Today view

Hello,
I just started using the Outlook Today view in Outlook Data File and find it much easier to digest rather than scrolling through tons of folders for the 5 email accounts I have in it. However, the massive white background hurts my eyes, especially
at night.
Is it possible to modify the the color of this or add a background image to it? If changing it modifies other areas of Outlook feel free to add that as I'll try it out.
I'm using Outlook 2010.
Thanks!
Jordan

Hi Rvp711,
Follow the given path to change the background color of Microsoft Outlook 2010:
File >> Options >> Color Scheme (from the User Interface Options section)
But, by default Outlook provides only three color options for Outlook interface
*Blue
*Silver
*Black

Validate for Outlook 2007 (Word 2007) on Mac

Hi, we are creating HTML email campaigns here that we want to be as compliant as possible across all email clients. I've learned a great deal about properly coding the HTML files so that they break down as gracefully as possible (inline styles only, tables, etc, etc). The files hold up pretty well across all major clients, including Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, AOL, Outlook 2003 or older, Mac Mail, etc.
AND THEN THERE'S OUTLOOK 2007...
So Outlook 2007 pretty much destroys my 'almost' completely compliant HTML.
- So I've seen there is a validator for Outlook 2007 and Dreamweaver, but it appears to be PC only. Are there any plugins or similar ways to quickly validate your HTML against Outlook 2007 (which uses the lovely Word 2007 engine) if on a Mac???
Thanks. We have Dreamweaver CS3 here on our Macs. We do have one token PC in the office, but it does not have Dreamweaver (or any Web editor) installed on it. So the Microsoft validator won't really help us here.
- Any other sites or tips to figure out some of the major issues in coding for Outlook 2007???
THANKS. Microsoft once again is enduring itself to designers everywhere...

Hi, thanks for the tips!
I ended up digging up an installation of Studio 8 that I was able to load onto our PC. So I was able to get the Word 2007 validator working, but it's really not very helpful here. It told me a couple things weren't valid, such as 'text-transform', which actually DO work. And then some things that are not working at all it doesn't mention (such as my side-column 'borders' that have fixed-width DIVs in them, but totally collapse)!!! Frustrating when I'm trying to figure out workarounds.
And I did check out the articles, thanks. The Email-Marketing reports basically spells out the problem in general terms, I think I need some more specific issues/workarounds. And the Microsoft article is helpful, just a bit hard to decipher (core, core extended, full).
I'll keep digging, or any other resources would be GREATLY appreciated.
And, in case anyone knows these tricks, I'll post my biggest issues as this emailer was supposed to go out this morning:
- Background images totally gone, no workarounds??? This was a decent part of the design, but we'll include a background color on the table cell as a backup.
- I was using DIVs with a 'width: 20px' to define the width of my side columns (inserted into the empty TDs), which are basically just empty white side margins. It looks like 'width' is not supported. How can I 'prop' these columns open best? I don't want to use spacer gifs, as these can sometimes be picked up as spam.
- Any tips for getting the margins & padding around type more consistent? I have large type that breaks onto 3 lines, and is using a pretty large 'line-height'. It looks like this line-height is added to the top margin pushing the type way down. Looks fine in all other email clients.
THANKS FOR ANY HELP!!!
PS - we do use MailChimp for some of our clients, and could get an account for ourselves. But I think the only way they would help us is if we used their templates. We're designing these pretty custom from scratch (though they are pretty basic).

Replacement for Outlook that has built in calendar and mail

Outlook is a resource hog. I need to find something to replace it. Something that allows for calendar support and mail support of an Exchange mail account.
Any suggestions?

Take a look at the Kensington website. I have a small case around my iPhone and it fits fine in their car mount.
I can't find any images for your particular case (nothing on the gear4 website), so I can't do a real estimate for you.

How to add an image for Signature in OWA

I am having problems with adding a logo to Office Outlook WebAccess 2007. Share some Ideas on this.
Cheers! Maruthu | MCP - Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist | http://twitter.com/Marutha_Chalam

Hi,
The following procedure will guide you through adding your own logo or image in Outlook web access signature
You will need access to a web server where to host the image, and a working Outlook desktop installation to send an email.
Start off by uploading the image to your company's website so that you can access it with an URL similar to
http://www.wimesh.net/info/wimesh.gif.
Now open Outlook and click on New to compose a new message, now make sure that you are writing an HTML message by clicking on the dropdown menu on the left most part of the toolbar right bellow the menu bar in a box that can say HTML, Rich text, or Plain text,
make sure to select HTML.
The next step would be to insert the picture. Click on the message body, and then go to the Insert menu, and click on Insert > Picture > From File... and where it says "File name:" type the the URL for your image like
http://www.wimesh.net/info/wimesh.gif. And send the message to your OWA account.
Now in the OWA account open the message you just sent, and highlight the image. Then go to Edit > Copy.
Now to insert it into the Signature, go to Options on the lower left corner of the screen, and find the button that says "Edit Signature..." and click it, paste your picture in the area that appears by right clicking on the box. Now you that you have your picture
in there, you can add other text to it, and Save and Close it.
Hope that helps.

Install of the CRM for Outlook 2013 client fails

Hi,
I don't know if I'm in the right place to post, but here I am :
Some people in my organization have got an Office 365 license as well as a
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online account. I want to install the client CRM For Outlook in order to allow them to manage the CRM from their Outlook client.
So I've downloaded the soft Microsoft Online Services Sign-In Assistant for IT Professionals RTW (as it's specified I should install it first), and downloaded the
CRM for Outlook 2013 client.
The steps followed
Test was made on a Dell laptop with Win 7 x64 Pro. :
Closed Outlook
Installed the first one (MS Online Services ... -IT Pro)
Tried to install the CRM with domain admin privileges. It failed
with the following warnings in the log file :
15:35:51|Warning| Failed to register notify interface. Error : 0x800704dd.
15:37:10|Warning| Failed to add the file C:\Users\ADMINI~1\AppData\Local\Temp\MSCRM_{B7297F92-E151-4897-870D-CDDF179FC6CE}\SSCERuntime_x64-1036.exe to the created job. Error : 0x800704dd.

15:37:12| Error| Installation of Microsoft Dynamics CRM for Outlook failed.
But it works on other environment
On the other hand, I've tested it on my computer (Win 7 x64 as well) and it succeeded. For both computers, I use Outlook 2010, and every system hadn't any trace of CRM for Outlook before.
Note : I only wrote the
Warning events, not the information tagged events. I searched for this problem across the Web; unfortunatly nobody seems to have reported this specific issue.
Note 2 : If you need any complementary information, I'll be glad to provide it.
So I am asking, where can be the matter ? Thanks in advance for any help !

Hi,
Try to perform a clean boot then install the CRM 2013 for Microsoft Office Outlook.
To perform a clean boot:
Log on to the computer by using an account that has administrator rights.
Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the Start Search box, and then press Enter to start the System Configuration utility.
Note If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, you should type the password or provide confirmation.
Collapse this imageExpand this image
On the General tab, click the Selective startup
option, and then click to clear the Load startup items check box. (The
Use Original Boot.ini check box is unavailable.)
Collapse this imageExpand this image
On the Services tab, click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then click
Disable all.
Collapse this imageExpand this image
Note This step lets Microsoft services continue to run. These services include Networking, Plug and Play, Event Logging, Error Reporting, and other services. If you disable these services, you may permanently delete all restore points. Do not
do this if you want to use the System Restore utility together with existing restore points.
Click OK, and then click Restart.
This way we can eliminate the affect by background programs, install the software to see if the error still occurs.
If the issue persists in clean boot, please collect the Setup log files from this path:
SystemDrive:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\MSCRM\Logs
Send the logs to our email address for further analysis:

How do I leverage a custom theme for Outlook 2013?

Microsoft has a problem. They use the term "theme" in Office in 2 different ways: 1) the 3 background colors you can choose of the Office applications and 2) a collection of colors, fonts, and layout that can be customized and defined by the user
for the applications.
I know how to create a theme in PowerPoint and save it as a default for all new presentations. Allegedly you can you this across Office applications but this is where it breaks down (as far as my user experience goes).
I've created a theme in PowerPoint. It has my custom colors. I want to use that same collection in Outlook.
I can apply it on a email by email basis (Options menu for an email), but I want the default email (new or reply) to use that custom theme. I see my theme in the drop down menu under a heading of Custom, but there isn't a way to set it as default
(behavior differs from PowerPoint here).
So I look under the Outlook File menu, then Options and select Mail. You can change stationary, but the custom theme isn't an option there.
Then there is Styles under the Format Text menu when in a new email. There are color options and font options, but again, no way to leverage the work I did in creating the custom theme.
Searching on customizing themes for Outlook only gets me answers on the first use of the word theme, not the latter.
Is there no way to you the theme I created for Outlook 2013?

Its very simple - if you want a product that remains consistent and does not change its layout every few years, that is fully customizable, and will remain being supported by subsequent operating systems, then get an open source product running in an open
source OS. It seems that you can no longer rely on MS to provide consistency, stability, or support for their own products.
When will MS realise that customer familiarity with their products is their intellectual property, like branding, which you would never trash every five years. Imagine that MS wanted to change their name to a new company name, or their Outlook brand to Inlook
- it would never happen. So why is thee trade getup and arrangement changing so often and against what their customers want? Is it to justify thee new products? Maybe with cloud and 365, they will finally be happy and stop mucking about with what works (after
they change everything back to '95 /XP format?).

How do I set up my iPad for outlook files and folders

I want to see and use, on my iPad, the same files and folders I have in outlook on my PC. Also I want any changes I make on the PC or the iPad to sync with each other.
PC is running Windows 7,
Outlook version 2007, not the exchange version although I think I can get that by re-installing outlook and choosing that option.(I don't understand what exchange is but don't bother to explain it unless the solution requires using it)
I currently use Gmail for my email accounts server. They are set up as POP accounts with Outlook using a .PST data file. However, IMAP is available for Gmail. My brief past experience with IMAP and .OST data files was kind of a disaster so it isn't my 1st choice for this.
As I understand it using Outlook 365 with Microsoft's cloud and mobile app would solve my problem but I don't like clouds, 365 or IMAP (I may have to concede on some of those). If there is a way to do it through the Gmail accounts without any other cloud that would be ideal since they already have all my email and I won't be spreading my personal info to other companies.
I do have a Drop Box account but I currently only use it for some well vetted specific files that I share with specific individuals.
I do not have any computer or network drive that is always on and might serve as a private cloud. That could be changed but then i'm relying there being no ISP or power interruptions which, of course do occasionally happen.
Obviously I'm being rather picky here knowing that I'll probably have to live with some things less than ideal.
I will consider 3rd party apps if they seem to be part of the solution.
Thank you in advance for any person/s that want to help me on this.
hsvt

Thanks. I can change the forwarding settings in Gmail to be either POP or IMAP. That is quite simple. I just looked at those settings on the Gmail server and, to my surprise, both are enabled. In order for outlook client on my computer to receive IMAP emails I have to change the email account settings in my current outlook from POP to IMAP. I don't need to be using the Exchange version of Outlook to receive IMAP. I guess I'll do a little research tomorrow on Exchange so i can figure out what, if anything, it might do for me.
I glanced at the link you sent me and it looks like it might be very helpful - another project for tomorrow.
BTW: I hit "This Solved my Question" by accident. I meant only to "like' your response so you would get some benefit from the help you've given me so far. I hope I haven't discouraged others from taking a shot at helping me. I suspect there is more than one way to approach this and, as you know, my problem isn't really solved until I have what I need all set up and running smoothly.

How can I use a JPEG file as a background image for my vi in 8.5

Im working on a vi that I plan on using as part of an alarm system. I would like to use a JPEG file of my house as a background image for the vi, or possibly to just be displayed in a window on the control panel. I have seen people use their own images before, but never looked at what this involved.
Im trying to use the "read JPEG file" vi and the "draw flattened pixmap" vi to accomplish this. The vi does run, but nothing shows on the front panel. If I try to create an indicator from the "new picture" output of the "draw flattened pixmap" vi, I get an empty white window on the front panel.
Any advice?
Thanks
Solved!

the earlier vi (using the JPEG) works fine. just increase the size of the picture control
I figured this was the problem. And to the OP, I'm glad a bitmap worked, but no I didn't mean use any sort of LabVIEW programming at all. I meant open your image in Microsoft Paint, Press ctrl+A to select the whole thing. Then copy the image to the clipboard. Now select your front panel and press ctrl + v to paste it. No programming needed and the image is there. However, if you want to programmatically change it, you will need a picture control.

How to use the same (selection) paths in multiple images for batch processing?

I have a whole bunch of photos I need to batch process, but, when creating an action for this, I stumbled upon the problem that the paths I selected with the pen tool, and saved under the "Paths" tab need to be in every image for to be used in the action. I did try to solve it for some time, but couldn't figure out. Any ideas?
Many Thanks
Carlos

Batch processing usually involves using actions you have recorded. In Action you can insert Path that can be used during processing documents. Path have some size so you may want to only process document that have the same size. Look in the Actions Palette fly-out menu for insert path. It inserts|records the current document work path into the action being worked on and when the action is played it inserts the path into the document as the current work path..

How to exchange one image for another with a click

I am brand new to actionscript, so bear with me! I need to create an interactive web-based system which takes the user through steps to assemble something. One of the pages will have images of the tools needed. I want the user to be able to 'tick' off each tool, so that when they click on the image of a specific tool it is replaced by the image faded out and a big red tick over it. essentially it is replacing one image for another when it is clicked on.
any ideas on the actionscript? Sorry i know this must be basic stuff for you!
thanks!

your tool images should be converted to movieclips and given instance names and you should create a red tick movieclip that you assign a class, say RedTick. you can then use:
tool1.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,toolClickF);
function toolClickF(e:MouseEvent):void{
var redtick:RedTick=new RedTick();
addChild(redtick);
redtick.x=e.currentTarget.x;
redtick.y=e.currentTarget.y;
e.currentTarget.alpha=.4;

How to create a background image for each item in a List object

Hello.
I am trying to create a background image that displays whenever a user posts something to a list. For example when a user posts text it would appear in a list. The new item in the list would contain a specific background image with the users text appearing on top of the background image. I do not want a background image for the entire list, rather each item within the list.
I am not sure how clear this is so I added an image below. When a user enters text in and clicks the "post-it" button their text would appear below with the sticky note background.
I am not sure which list type would be best for this problem or how to create insert the image, so I am open to suggestions.
Thank you for your help. Any advice or guidance will be greatly appreciated!

Hi
the easiest way would be with itemRenderer.
You have to do two things:
1. In your list declaration use a item renderer: <mx:List itemRenderer="myRenderer"/>
2. create a flex component myRenderer that will be the single item. This can be a canvas with a background image and a text field on it.
When you add a new item to the list, a new myRenderer item will be created and the data property will be passed to it. So you have to put "data" in your textField.
If you need more help try looking at Tour de Flex samples, they're pretty easy.

One Image for dual and single processor G5 machines

I'm working in a lab that has both single and dual processors G5 machines. There is only one image for both machines and I suspect that we have a few bugs with the single processor machines because of this. Has anyone else used one image for both single and dual processors? Have there been problems. I'm wondering if it is necessary to create two separate images.
mdinger

There is not difference in the images, but you might have problems with the single G5 machines and 10.4. Did you do the firmware upgrade?
I have ~10 single G5 and 25 dual D5 machines netinstalled from one image without trouble.
