Downloading attachments when using a Windows XP computer

I use a MAC at home but when I am working or traveling then I have to use a Windows XP laptop. I can read my E-mail messages from www.mac.com but I can not view any of the attachments. Is there something that I can do that will allow me to view these attachments when using my work laptop?

Your question will be easier to answer if you provide the following information:
1. What email client are you using on the Windows XP laptop? Or are you using .Mac's webmail <http://webmail.mac.com>?
2. What are the attachments you're trying to view? Do you have the correct applications on the XP machine to view them?
3. What are you seeing when you try to download and view attachments?

I just got a used Canon ZR850 and I'm having trouble downloading my video onto my Windows 7 computer

I just got a used Canon ZR850 and I'm having trouble downloading my video onto my Windows 7 computer. I have a FireWire that works fine with my ZR830 but not with the 850. The connection isn't registering. What can I do?

Without proper system information and other details nobody can help you. and this error means what it says - some other install process is still active, even if it may not do so visible. Could be a silent update of a virus scanner or something, could be a botched install of another program, not even specifically Adobe. As a start, always reboot your computer and then try again. For anything else we need much more info.

Plug it into iTunes and restore it with your backup. You should have a backup in iTunes or iCloud.

How can I force mount a dvd that isn't even seen by Disk Utility? I can see it on the Mac when using my Windows 7 partition via Boot Camp, but not in Lion, which is how I would rather be running.

Well if there is a EFI block, then running a program in OS X isn't going to do a lick of good.
After all EFI was designed for Trusted Computing and Digital Rights Management, to act between the OS and hardware, can read drives, contact the Internet and everything.
Windows doesn't use EFI, will have UEFI in Windows 8 though.

How can I convert an outlook pst file to mac mail without using a windows based computer

I recently bought the new iMac as my older Windows based computer crashed with a bad motherboard. I have been trying to find a way to convert Outlook 2007 pst files to Mac Mail without the need to use a Windows based computer since all I have now is a Mac. I have the copies of the pst files on my Mac, so I am looking for the most efficient way to convert them to the format that I can then open them in the Mac Mail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - thanks for the instructions but where do you get the option for Quicktime. If I do File - Export I only get the options for File name, place and size but no option that allows to select quicktime:-(
Have you got any more tips?

Are you trying to use a 32bit version (I did not even know there is one for Photoshop CC 2014)?
If so – why?

Default mail client does not automatically download attachments when they are over 130Kb

Hi @ll,
default mail client on Ipad does not automatically download attachments when they are over 130Kb
Do you know if is possible to change this setting?

We have this problem as well. Unfortunately after years of only supporting IE and finally rewriting our site to be standards compliant we are going to have to force users back to IE because of this issue. It's not feasible for us to walk users through changing the default viewer. The default should stay Adobe (if installed) until a more robust native version is available. I understand you want to promote free and open tools but if they don't work, it's just not good enough.

Which Adobe Premiere 11 download do I use for Windows 8?

Which Adobe Premiere 11 download do I use for Windows 8?

There should be only one Premiere 11 download for Windows, so whichever one you find in the Adobe site should be the one you need to download.

" I ordered the Snow Leopard software and tried installing it, but it stopped and said to clean the disk."
First off, your installation disc is in all likelihood faulty.
This has been a known issue in the past:

Your Aperture library is not deleted when you delete Aperture from the Applications folder. Neither are your settings BTW.
Do make certain your library is backed up!

IPhone mail automatically downloads attachments when checking inbox, help ?

Phone consuming massive amounts of data. Noticed when going to inbox attachements are fully downloaded before opening individual mail. Can't turn this off. Apple UK says this is normal. I can't beleive this. I have received mail On a handset for 10 yrs and every model prompted me to download attachments. Never used more than 100mb in a month. With iPhone I'm now using over 50mb per day. This is outrageous as email on the move is a necessity for me however I like to choose what I receive. Feels like I have bought an inkjet printer that takes rippoff cartridges. I've turned off push mail , set download remote images to off, set preview to 2 lines but did not help. If I go to inbox for a few seconds then exit, a while later I hear the message indicator sound , check my inbox again and there are my new messages with full attachments downloaded and waiting. When I open an individual message the attachment opens instantly , proving that it has already been downloaded. Is this normal?if so, please apple release a feature allowing me to choose to receive attachments or not

Thnx for your assistance. You won't beleive this. Option 1 didn't work so before I went the clear device route I had a look at one of my associates iPhone. Turns out it does the same thing. We then checked another handset and same problem. Turns out both of them have been querying Vodacom because of massive data bills since they moved to iPhone. They didn't realize it was their mail attachments causing it until I pointed it out. The're milking us.
Those screenshots you sent , are they from a 3gs running os 3.1.3?
I cannot beleive Apple or Vodacom hasn't picked this up. Under these circumstances it makes the device unusable as a business tool for those who require access to email over mobile networks unless your prepared to throw huge money at a feature other manufacturers provide controls for. (no wonder blackberry has taken the business market here).

Can't download iTunes onto my new Windows Vista computer

I had iTunes on my old Windows 2000 computer. Just bought a new computer and have mu library saved on hard drive - transferred files to new computer but am unable to download iTunes. I have attempted the download multiple times. I have dial up internet and it takes several hours to download. Then I when I try to run the program I get the following message:
files\content.IE5\TPKB3035\iTunes.setup(1)exe is not a valid win32 application
I have tried to uninstall and start over but iTunes does not show up in my programs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks. Jan

I cannot find the file itunessetup.exe on my computer so I can't remove it. The itunes I am trying to install is the latest version, which is the one that is supposed to work with Windows Vista. However, it won't install for me. I am still getting the error message when I finish downloading.

Can I download apps/updates using someone else's computer & ISP?

My friend was lamenting that she can't purchase certain apps because they are too big for her ISP e.g. Audubon is 1GB in size which would take days to download (wouldn't work, would get interrupted) and in any case would exceed the download allowance.
So my thought was "we have that app, she can buy it and abort the download of it and then I can just copy the .ipa to her computer and Install". But this doesn't work: apparently the .ipa itself is tagged with our purchase information and can't be used by anyone else, despite that they've purchased it too. Izzat right?
Assuming it's the case that downloads can't be re-used in any way, just how does someone with an inadequate ISP download large apps? Could I, for example, log-on to our iTunes with this other person's Apple Store ID, then download the app using my ISP; she's bought-but-aborted and then copy that download into her "iTunes Media/Mobile Applications" for her to install to her iGizmo?
Is there any better way to do this?

I doubt bandwidth is a concern at their end of the pipe. You can use a single copy, provided one of you is prepared to authorize the other's computer for protected purchases. However having apps from more than one account on any computer or device means that to update the apps you have to sign out of one account and into the other each time there is an update on the "wrong" account. To do so on a regular basis would mean sharing password details with the other party which ought not to be advised.

Thanks, I think this is finally sinking-in with me, helping me also to understand how this friend has an app from her husband's AppleID and computer on HER computer--they must have authorized his ID on her computer (they said they spent hours on the phone with Apple support to get the app onto her iGizmo, without being able to tell me how it got resolved).
What you're saying is that I should be able to "give" this friend the 1GB file I've downloaded, by logging-on to iTunes using my AppleID, and then Authorizing the computer for use (which decrements one of my 5 allowable computers).
But then it would work only once, and the next time the app needs to be updated she'd have to log-off and log-on as me and then do the update. Actually I think this might work, since these friends are pushing "elderly" and struggle to use their PCs and new iPhones, i.e. when they need to be updated they tend to call me anyway. I'd go over there, copy the dl'ed update to their PC, log-off and back-on as me, update her iPhone, and return the PC to her AppleID.
If my post indicates a misunderstanding on my part in any way, please let me know. Thanks again tt2 and JE.
