File damaged only when emailing it.

Hello,
I have a fill-in file that I use to bill for jobs that I received from my company.  I am able to print it and open it after saving it on my computer.  However, if I email it to anyone, the receiver of the email gets an error message that says:  There was an error opening this document.  This file is damaged and cannot be repaired.  I upgraded my computer.  It is still an XP, but newer.  I never had this problem on my old computer, which was XP, also.  Is there something I need to change in my settings somewhere so that the file can be emailed without getting corrupted or damaged?
Thank you all in advance for any help and suggestions

OMG, you are fantastic.  I spent countless hours trying to figure this out.  I just found out about this forum today.  In less than fifteen minutes I got my answer.  You were right on the money.  I also downloaded CA Security on my computer and I'm sure that's when I started having this problem.  I checked "Correct Answer".  You should get extra points not only because you were correct, but your speed in answering was unbelievable.
Thank you so much.

    Hi Experts,
    Is there any way we can set few of the columns in excel sheet as read only when downloaded from SAP.
    We have requirement where a program will generate a report and download it into an excel file on desktop.  When the file is downloaded, two of its columns should be non editable.
    I know complete sheet of excel can be protected using OLE, can we protect few columns also using OLE?
    any idea how can it be done?

  • File Size Options when emailing

    My old blackberry used to give you the handy option of reducing the file size of photos when emailing (small, medium and orignal).  I can't find this option on the Q10 and its not set out in the user guide.  As such, all photos are being emailed at full resolution which is costly from a data perspecitve when off wifi.  Has anyone discovered the trick for reducing flie sizes when emailing or do we need to wait for an op systyem update?  Cheers.

    Hey JDSUK,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for the question.
    My apologies, when attaching a file in BlackBerry Hub it will send it at it's full size.  You can however ZIP a file which will make the file size smaller.  Check out this Blog post for more information: http://helpblog.blackberry.com/2013/06/blackberry-10-working-with-zip-files/
    Let me know if you have any more questions.
    Cheers.

  • .doc files not opening when emailed

    All of the sudden no one on a PC can open my .doc files when I email them. Word is prompting them to install special software to open them...they're coming up as some kind of Japanese text. What's going on??? I haven't ever had this problem before.

    I'm not sure why it would have just started. What e-mail application are you using to send your files? Entourage? A Web e-mail client? Apple's own "Mail" program? What application are the recipients using? Some details like that might be helpful to troubleshoot your issue. If you're using Apple's Mail program, you might search/post in the Mail forums here:

  • Microsoft files Read-only when sharing between two Macs

    I'm trying to share Excel files between my Macbook and my iMac. The files are located on my macbook and I've given read/write permission to the folder containing the files. When I try to open the files on my iMac they open as read only. This happens with Excel, Word and Power Point files.
    How do I configure the file sharing so I can open Microsoft files without them being Read only.
    I'm using Office:mac 2004 and both the Macbook and iMac are running OS X (10.5.6)

    There have been occassions where I have wanted to transfer something from the MBP to the Mini or vice-versa over wi-fi and have encountered problems. I suspect this is because I am using the same user account and they get confused.
    Could you please explain, what kind of problems exactly you encountered? Error messages? Corrupted files? And why do you think the problem is caused by the same user profiles?
    Like markwmsn I have no problem with sharing using the same account name on all my macs. Only since upgrading to Mt. Lion I usually use AirDrop to send single files. That saves the trouble to copy the files to a public folder.
    Do both your macs support Air Drop?
    OS X Lion: Share your files with others near you

  • Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?

    Is there a way to play an mp4 file at the beginning of a published project only when the project is accessed from a specific site?
    A little background info. I use Captivate 7 and currently have over 100 projects that I maintain on a quarterly basis. I publish using the SWF format and upload the swf/htm files to a server where they are then accessed from a few locations (within our online documentation, in our software product, on two different websites). Many of the projects are linked so some will be viewed as a series and others viewed as a standalone video. Each video uses the same template and includes an intro and end slide. Now my organization wants to implement a new intro to all videos (those I publish and those from several groups across the organization). My current intros provide overview material for the specific video so the new intro, which is an animation with audio in mp4 format, would need to be placed at the start of each project. The issue is, the intro adds 9 seconds to every video and in many cases doesn’t add any value (say, if a user accesses the video from within our product or views the videos as a series). I’ve talked it over with my boss and we want to try to add the intro only to videos accessed from site X, not any other location. So now to my question. Is there a way to play an external mp4 file (intro) only when the published project is accessed from a specific site, therefore eliminating the need to update each project? Maybe there's a way to add a parameter or variable to the URL or the html code?
    Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Please let me know if you need additional information.

    AimeeLove,
    I have a solution for you.  You may have to modify the code a little bit based on how long the timeline animation is for your clock.  I based mine on 3 seconds to complete a minute hand sweep around the clock.
    Milliseconds for each point on the clock:
    12 = 0
    1 = 250
    2 = 500
    3 = 750
    4 = 1000
    5 = 1250
    6 = 1500
    7 = 1750
    8 = 2000
    9 = 2250
    10 = 2500
    11 = 2750
    In the mouseover section for 12 o' clock, put this code...
    myVar = setInterval(function(){
         var pos = sym.getPosition();
         if (pos > 0 && pos < 50){
              sym.stop(0);
              clearInterval(myVar);
    },10);
    When you point to the time, the setInterval method loops every 100th of a second and checks the current position of the timeline.  When the timeline reaches the range between 0 and 50 milliseconds (almost impossible to hit 1 specific point), the timeline will stop at 0.  Also, the clearInterval will be fired to stop the loop.
    In the mouseout section, put this...
    sym.play();
    clearInterval(myVar);
    It start the clock again, and it also clears the loop in case you mouseout before you reach the range.
    Make sure that myVar is a global variable so you can clear it from the mouseout section.
    Repeat this for each point on the clock.  To avoid potential conflicts, you may want to use my12, my1, my2, etc. instead of myVar.  I put the milliseconds at the top that you would use as the beginning of the range.  50 milliseconds should be enough to catch it.  So, for 5 o' clock, you would make your range between 1250 and 1300.
    Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!
    Fred

    The Deskjet series printers connect to wireless networks with what is called USB to Wireless.
    You will need a supported operating system to connect a Deskjet to a wireless network.  Supported operating systems to connect the printer to a wireless network are Windows 7 (32bit and 64bit), Windows Vista (32bit and 64bit), and Mac OS X (10.5, 10.6, and 10.7).  
    While there is a software download option for Linux distributions, this is not the full featured software that is capable of adding the printer to a wireless network.  Most printers have a wireless setup wizard to accomplish this task, but the Deskjet series printers connect in a different way.
    Once the printer is connected to a wireless network,  HPLIP 3.12.4 drivers should be able to locate the printer.
    Click on Installing the Product Software for a Wireless Network Connection to receive instructions to connect to a wireless network using Windows and Mac operating systems.
    Click on Software & Driver Downloads - HP Deskjet 3070A e-All-in-One Printer - B611a to download the appropriate software for a supported operating system to connect to a wireless network.

  • PDF file size increases when I add a Email Submit button

    Hello,
    My PDF form is 87KB.  Once I add a Email submit button the file size jumps to 525KB.  Why?
    Reason this confuses me is that it seems to be inconsistent.  I have added this function to other PDF forms and the file size only increased a few KB.   Every now & then adding a button or Javascript will increase the file size.
    I have retraced my steps over & over, but I cannot find a answer to why this is happening.
    Thanks for the help everyone!
    -CM

    The problem is the font. Use Helvetica instead. When you do, Acrobat/Reader actually use a version of Arial anyway.
    When you use one of the non-base-14 fonts (Helvetica, Times, Courier, [and their bold, italic, bold italic variants] Symbol, and Zafp Dingbats) for a form field, Acrobat has to embed the entire font in the file, and some can be rather large. The base-14 fonts are guaranteed to be available for use by the compliant PDF viewer, so there is not need to embed them in the file. A viewer is allowed to substitute suitable replacement fonts, which is what Acrobat/Reader now do.
    The problem is you can't simply go back and change the font to Helvetica and see the full size reduction that you'd expect after you do a Save As. This is because Acrobat does not clean up everything as well as you might expect. So what you have to do is go back to a version of the form that does not have the button, or copy & paste the field from the old form to a new PDF that doesn't have any fields, but delete the button first. Then create the button anew.

  • Convert editable PDF to read-only when sent in an email - JavaScript

    I have a real estate company that is trying to have an application that a agent and customer can fill in the needed information, hit a submit button, have the javascript compose an email with the attached pdf.  Here's the issue I'm having: I need to be able to convert the editable pdf to a read only so when the customer receives a copy they cannot edit the information again. 
    Here is my javascript code for the submit button:
    // This is the form return email. It's hardcoded
    // so that the form is always returned to the same address.
    // Change address on your form to match the code below
    // Send to buisness email
    var cToAddr = "[email protected]";
    // First, get the client CC email address
    var cCCAddr = this.getField("1st Tenant Email").value;
    if(cCCAddr != "")
    // Now get the second email only if it is filled out
    var cBenAddr = this.getField("2nd Tenant Email").value;
    if(cBenAddr != "")
    // Now get the third email only if it is filled out
    var cthirdAddr = this.getField("3rd Tenant Email").value;
    if(cthirdAddr !="")
    // Set the subject and body text for the email message
    var cSubLine = "Test - Lease Form"
    var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your form.\n" + "Save the filled form attachment for your own records"
    // Send the entire PDF as a file attachment on an email
    this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCc: (cCCAddr + "; "
    + cBenAddr + "; " + cthirdAddr), cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});

    Hi keely,
    Firstly you will need to buy a Reader Extensions license (this allows Reader to save the form data - otherwise the client will require Acrobat). Once this is done, you will then need a button (called "Lock Down" or something) that executes a script that makes all of the fields readOnly and updates a form variable (say, "locked") to indicate that the form is locked. You will also need to add a script to the initialize event that checks for the value of "locked", then executes the readOnly script (if the form needs to be locked down). An example of a readOnly script can be found on page 434 of http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_lc_scriptingReference (see "Disabling all form fields" script)
    Here is a sample form ( https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/9df046bd-1125-4923-95de-35fc845139ca ) with a 'Lock All fields' button. Once you click this button all the forms turn 'Read only'.
    Another way to accomplish this which still requires Reader Extensions or Acrobat Pro is to use digital signatures. The people you are sending this to should have certificates set up.
    Hope this helps.

  • Spool File not complete when spool recipient recieves email

    Hi,
    This is my Issue...
    We scheduled one of the Std SAP report (RLS10020/LX02). When defining the job, we have also specified a spool recipient and once the job was completed, the recipient got the spool as a html file. The spool actually had 15000 line items, but the html file received in the email had only 900 (file size ~1.5 mb).
    When the spool is manually exported as a html file in the local m/c, it had the complete data of 15000 line items (file size of 26mb).
    Any information on why the file from email is truncated would be appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance..

  • Why does Adobe Reader XI set my keyboard to display NUMBERS ONLY when I open a .pdf file?

    I need to keep re-booting my laptop to resolve above bug. Ideas please?

    ONE MONTH AND NO REPLY - WHO  CAN ADDRESS THIS BUG????
    WHEN I OPEN A .pdf document using ADOBE READER 11.0.2  BEHAVIOR is described BELOW. I CANNOT BE MORE COGENT.
    It occurs both within Adobe Reader functions, such as page printing options, and in all APPLICATIONS (Gmail, Word, etc) once I close .pdf document.
    SOLUTION: I MUST POWER DOWN/UP EACH TIME I USE ADOBE READER. THIS IS IDIOCY.
    1. Keyboard appears RESET to display numbers ONLY, and numbers displayed to DO NOT CORRESPOND to numbers I TYPE.
    AFTER ADOBE READER IS CLOSED I type "A" into say, an email address field and a random number, say, "9" appears in the field not an "A".
    WHILE IN ADOBE READER  I type "23" into the .pdf "go to page" field, and get other numbers completely.
    Happens ONLY when I open a .pdf file with Adobe Reader 11.0.2 (XI).
    Both behaviors occur whether I open a download .pdf file or attempt to open a .pdf via search engine Google + my Browsers.
    2. Operating System = Windows 7.
    3. My Browser = Internet Explorer 9 or Mozilla Foxfire; behavior is identical on either. Search engine used is Google.
    Weird, but true, and tiresome. I've had it..

  • Since ios5, i cannot send email from my iPod when in my network, only when 3G

    Since ios5, i cannot send email from my ipad when wi-fi but only when 3G

    The SMTP server you are using with Wi-Fi would be the outgoing server of your internet service provider... this is likely why that's working.
    SMTP servers specific to a ISP would not work on the 3G network. You would probably need another SMTP server. One from your cell provider?

  • Serv. Desk: Action: send an email only when a value in a field has changed

    Hello,
    In Soution Manager 4.0, Sevice Desk, I would like to create an action which creates an email only when a value of a certain field has changed.
    - only in change mode relevant
    - only when a value of one field has changed (e.g. Message Processort has changed from Buss. Partner 4 to 5. Than a mail should be sent to BP 5).
    - it should only send this kind of email when the field value has changed in change mode. In other words: it should not sent the email e.g. when the status has changed.
    I tried all kinds of things but I do not know on how to define the COnditions for an Action, so I can compare e.g.
    if <old value> <> <new value>
    Any ideas or experience on how to implement this without major modifications ?
    Thanks
    Christian

    Hi Christian,
    check out my question on SDN.
    Email on Status Change
    it has details on how to send an email when the status changes. I believe you are going to have to do something like this for each of the fields you want to create an Action Starting Condition for.

Either ALL emails come to my iPhone or none at all. Is the setting I need to change in Outlook or on the iPhone or is it somewhere else?  I used to have this setting but transferring Outlook to a new laptop somehow turned it off.

    No. You really can't do that. Not easily at any rate. You would have to set them both up to use POP3, but even then there is no way to guarantee that the phone won't poll the server prior to your computer doing so, pulling down the message from the server.

I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

    It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.
