E mail attachments showing entire text instead of just an icon

can some tell me where to find the settings to keep the attachments in an email as just the icon not the entire text showing in the body
example - when I attach a PDF article to an email the entire text shows in the body instead of just the icon - HELP
THANKS

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
This cannot be changed, except to temporarily View as Icon while composing, and that will have no impact on how the recipient sees the attachment (which is a true attachment even though View in Place is used). To learn how Mail treats single page PDF vs multi-page PDF, read:

Attachments show as text

It happened to me twice now that I got an email with attachments, I believe both times it was through my .mac account, which makes Mail painfully slow to begin with.
Anyway, it has this funky behavior of showing a message before the attachments are downloading, so you start seeing the attached content as it downloads, but if you switch to another message and then back to the message with attachments they end up being gone...it's all text.
In the last case it even "forgot" the sender's name and address in the header.
It just went blank.
Well, I guess that's called a bug, but I thought I post it here anyways...

My only reference to POP was to say that I do not receive many large attachments in my .mac account, and yes, I would NOT expect any problems with your POP accounts.
My statement about IMAP accounts was made because .mac accounts, set up as .mac type (you can use POP, but .mac is default when setting up) operate in the same way as IMAP accounts. IMAP access in Mail 2.0 is flawed, and with some IMAP servers, attachments, or at least large attachments, simply do not display, and we have found no setting or other change to correct.
I have not seen the same problem reported, previously, for a .mac account. I would like to know the number of messages in your .mac Inbox, and also what is the size reported for the messages where the attachments show as text?
I also would like you to test with selecting to NOT save messages and their attachments for Offline viewing -- there is no risk to messages, as they remain on the server, but it could be important to see if this makes any change to your situation.

My iPhone shows black text instead of blue btwn iPhone users, Why?

My iPhone is shows black text instead of blue to different iphone users, what does this mean?? Thank you.

No matter what you send a normal text or iMessage the color of the "text" will remain black,but if you send a iMessage,the color of the message bubble will be blue and if you send a normal text message the color of the message bubble will be green.

Show blank texts instead of key or 'not assigned' in query-result

Hi,
is there a way / workaround to
1. suppress # / 'not assigned' in query results?
or
2. show blank texts (if maintained) instead of the key
(when showing texts for a characteristic in a query all characteristics with blank texts - none or ' ' -
will show the key instead of the blan text) ?
Thanks,
Christoph

Hi Christoph,
there have been several posts concerning this topic. As Saad told there is no direct way within SAP standard to reach this aim.

Mail attachments showing up as garbled inline text (code)

Running 10.5.6 with Mail 3.5
Receiving attachments to emails is inconsistent. Sometimes a Word document is received with an email just fine. Other times it will be attached by the sender (in the usual manner) but will show up in my email as inline text (just garbled text or code). If the email is sent to my gmail account, the Word doc is fine.
I am not sure what to look for since the symptoms seem to be inconsistent.

I have had the same problem for a long time. What burns me up is that I think I understand it, and there isn't a darn thing I can do about it --- short of using a different email client.
Examine one of these emails with the garbled text in place of attachment. If you're having the same problem I am, then when you use view -> message -> raw source, just before the attachment you will see something like this:
Content-Disposition: inline;
Multi-part MIME format messages can specify whether their sub-parts are meant to be viewed inline. If it is inline, often Mail will render images and PDF documents as you might expect, but many other file types are rendered as plain text. This even happens with files generated by applications Apple ought to be smarter about, such as iCal. I suppose that from Apple's point of view, the fault lies elsewhere. The sender's email client ought to be smart enough to let them send attachments as attachments. Unfortunately, some mail clients (Thunderbird in particular) seem to always mark outgoing attachments as inline, and Apple Mail does not have the flexibility to treat it in any other way.

Mail attachments showing up as jumbled text

Starting about a month ago, my school's IMAP account in Mail will randomly show just jumbled text when there should be an attachment, and I have to go onto the webmail server to download the attachment. It doesn't happen with my gmail POP account, so I don't know if it's a problem with IMAP versus POP, or a problem with the university's server, or something else.
Any ideas on what I can do to stop this from happening?
EDIT: I have the IMAP account set up on both my iBook and iMac. Oddly, I just noticed that one of the emails that showed the attachment as a jumbled mess of text on my iMac, showed up as the correct excel file attachment on my iBook. Looking back, this seems to happen every once in a while, but usually if one computer shows the attachment as jumbled text, the other does as well.

I don't have an answer but I came here with the same issue. Everyone at my office (20 or so) uses Apple Mail with our Communigate Pro server via IMAP, but I'm the only one who consistently has this problem. I resolved it once by connecting from home over the Internet - all the broken mails fixed themselves by being re-downloaded. However this eats up bandwidth that we can't really spare.

Mail attachments show up as code, not document

Hi all,
I've got one client, also using Mac Mail. When they send me attachments (zip files, psd's, etc) the attachment show up as code, not an attachment. If I open the same mail in gmail, it's an attachment. Other clients sending me attachments seem to work fine. Any ideas on a fix, either for me or my client?
Thanks

I am having this problem but it is not caused by spaces in name of attachment. It happens with attachments that have no spaces.
Contrary to theories in another thread, it is not caused by Outlook, either. I can send myself an email with an attachment and it comes back showing the encoded contents of the attachment (or just the contents if it's a text attachment) and raw mime-related text, such as:
--Apple-Mail-26-789943242
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset=US-ASCII;
format=flowed;
delsp=yes
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
Someone else blamed it on a corrupt preference. I have fixed it this way before but it came back pretty quickly. Was hoping for a more comprehensive fix or workaround.

Hierarchy node text shows short text instead of medium text in WebI report

Hi,
We have created a simple Hierarchy suing Tx RSH1.
US -> North Carolina
South Carolinakey
Rest of America
Please note "North Carolina" is the medium text for the node while the short text which can contain max of 10 chars is "North Caro"
We have used and activated the hierarchy within the BEx query. Text display with "Medium Text" has been enabled for the InfoObject. The display on the BW report is as expected showing the medium text for all levels and all modes.
When a universe is built on the query and a WebI report is created based on the universe everything works fine other than than the Hierarchy text for different levels and nodes. Instead of showing the Medium text, the short text is getting display.
We took out the text object from the Universe in the Universe designer and went ahead with the key and medium text, but that did not help.
Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround for this issue?
We are on XI 3.1 SP3.
Rgds

Hi,
I am working on BO XI 3.1 SP2.
I have displayed the medium text for the hierarchy nodes as:
In my universe three detail objects(key, medium name and long name) gets generated for each hierarchy node.
I have copied the definition of L01 Medium name (detail object) in the L01 dimension object. similarly for other hierarchy nodes.
i.e. L02, L03.. etc.
Now the master data which have been loaded for the medium name will be displayed.
Regards,
Rohit

Website uses foxpro to produce report with barcode and barcode shows as text instead of barcode

view source code shows the code below
<pre><nowiki>
<td>*16001533779*
</nowiki></pre>
what must I do to have barcode show as barcode and not text?

You would need to have a font installed to show this barcode if there aren't images used.
face="Free 3 of 9 Extended" specifies that the "Free 3 of 9 Extended" should be used.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their own fonts.

Firefox 11 beta is having issues loading Flash and HTML content, shows plain text instead of images

I'm not sure what is causing the problem but it has been happening since beta 10 and now its also in beta 11. Randomly when I load any web page the page is displayed in plain text leaving all the HTML or flash content blank. Yes I have the most recent version of flash installed along with Java just in case it was looking for that mess as well. Sometimes the pages load fine, and sometimes they don't, it's like playing lotto with the internet. The only fix I know of is to either keep refreshing the page and "hope" it catches it on the reload, or closing Firefox and running CCleaner. Some times FF will load some of the visual data and leave gaps but usually its just basic text mode. I'm at a loss as to whether the problem is from Firefox or my ISP being a douche, either way its annoying that Firefox is not showing internet pages like it used to.
Hate to see it happening but it looks like Firefox is on its way to being just another Internet Explorer clone (failure). Should have stayed with your original team, all the new folks you have hired are really mucking up the whole project and its goal of a free and open internet. Not to mention writing bad code and costing you money and more importantly the user base.
(Update, now it's not doing it go figure, but I'm sure it will do it again at some point, perhaps its not Firefox and something else, I'll keep my eye on it and try to report any findings)

If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extension) like Adblock Plus or NoScript or Flash Block that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

How to show the text, instead of number

Hi Buddies;
I'm creating a form, using oracle forms 10g. In this form I'm showing the equipment information. We sell services, and for some services, we provide the equipment, but we have a lot of a equipment, so we need to keep an inventory of these equipment. So for each equipment we have several status, example; Available, Returned ok, Assigned, Stolen, Returned by Damage .
These status resides in other table, but in the where I'm getting the info to show thru the screen, just have a code.
What I want, is to change this code, for the description of that code, example, 01 = Available. So, if the record for status has code 01, instead of 01, I want to show the word Avalaible.
Can somebody explain me, how to do this.
Thanks
ANG

oooppss i missed one this there is you code mistake also...
Begin
     Select status_name into :EQP.status_code -- Here use description field name not the same code field
     from eqp_status
     where status_code = :EQP.status_code ;
End;Also increase the size of datatype of description item so it can hold description.
I like to use LIST ITEM in these type of cases ;) Its easy and not required any POST-QUERY and POST-CHANGE code. As craig said you will have to keep on POST-QUERY and any performance issue etc.
So, i would prefer to use this method...
1. For that code field set the item type property to LIST ITEM.
2. Create one record group of your this query like...
Select status_code, status_name
from eqp_status3. Populate that record group into that list item. like
Trigger = WHEN-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE form-level
DECLARE
vGrp NUMBER;
BEGIN
vGrp:=POPULATE_GROUP('GROUP_NAME');
POPULATE_LIST('LIST_ITEM_NAME','GROUP_NAME');
END;Now at the time of query it will automatically show you saved status.

AppBarButton.Label text not showing entirely (text wrapping not working)

Hi,
I'm having some issue with the AppBar and the AppBarButton's labels.
I'm working on Universal App and testing on Windows Phone 8.1 Update 1 emulator.
In this image you can clearly see the issue where I drawn the red arrows:
The strangeness is that doesn't happen when I try in other language, for example italian:
The properties setted for the buttons are obviously the same, since the page it's the same and localization is done through Resources.resx files
Here's the code for the AppBar I'm using
<Page.BottomAppBar>
 <CommandBar ClosedDisplayMode="Minimal">
 <AppBarButton x:Uid="SearchContactButton" Icon="Find" Click="SearchContactButton_Click" />
 <AppBarButton x:Uid="ClearFieldsButton" Icon="Clear" Click="ClearFieldsAppBarButton_Click" />
 <AppBarButton x:Uid="DeleteHistoryButton" Icon="Delete" Click="DeleteHistoryAppBarButton_Click" />
 <CommandBar.SecondaryCommands>
 <AppBarButton Label="about" Click="AppBarButton_Click" />
 </CommandBar.SecondaryCommands>
 </CommandBar>
</Page.BottomAppBar>

This topic has been brought up occasionally, and yes it depends on the language.
Here's a thread from 2011:
Whats the deal with "two-line descriptions" for icons on the appbar
The original UI interface designers wanted to allow only 1 line of text, but it isn't enough for some languages with long words (such as German), so they allowed 2 lines but only for certain languages. Personally I think they should make it consistent across
all languages.

Mail - attachments in email look like photos rather than icons or files

when i put an insert (pdf file or word doc) the attachment is showing like an embedded photo instead of icons or attachments. How can i fix this to make attachments as attachments instead of whats occuring.

Not really, apart from trying a different mail client to see if it makes any difference.

Is there a way to republish the entire website instead of just the changes made?

Okay, hopefully I can explain everything clearly here.
I am hosted by bluehost.com
I am on a mac.
I am using iweb version 3.04.
Here is my website: alleycatfacepainting.com
So, I am having a problem with a particular page. After 2 hours of being online with bluehost, we discovered that when I republish in iweb, it does not seem to replace the old files in bluehost. The only way to see the changes is to delete the bluehost file and then republish. The problem is, I would have to rebuild the entire page in order for it to show up as a fully functioning page online because iweb seems to only publish the changes you make, rather than the entire page or entire website.
What I want to know is...is there a setting I can change so that my entire website gets uploaded when I publish rather than just the individual change?
Or...is there a way to trick iweb into thinking its never uploaded that website before?
Thank you for your answers.

It is kind of strange that the files are not being overwritten. If you publish to a local folder and upload with an FTP app you should be able to set this to over write the old files.

How do i get folders to show thumbnail previews, instead of just a folder icon. Like how windows does thumbnail view.

I have a massive amount of folder with pictures inside each folder, is there a way for the folder icon to show whats inside, like how windows does it.

Hi Tweedy -
No, you can't use the .NET code directly in DIAdem. I'm not sure what the point in suggesting it was, as it would take significant modification to be able to use similar code in DIAdem.
Have you tried using the VIEW Legends? Expand the legend for each graph and then double-click on the legend, at which point you can configure what information shows up about each curve. By default, the legend will show the Curve Name, Curve Units, X-Position (of the cursor), and Y-Position (of the cursor). Feel free to augment or contract this as needed for your preference.
After expanding each legend, switch to the Curve Cursor, and you should be able to see the Y-Position of each curve, completely synchronized.
