File extensions become corrupted when sending attachments in Mail

Hi,
Since I upgraded to Leopard the file extensions on attachments that I send in Mail are corrupted in transit. The problem is not irremediable: .doc may change to .doc00 or .docis or something like that. The recipient can delete the extra characters when saving or opening the attachment, and the file is intact. But this is a bit of a bore, as I have to send attachments all the time. It doesn't matter whether I send from my iMac G5 or my MacBookPro, and it doesn't matter whether the recipient has a Mac or a PC.
Any collective wisdom out there?
Many thanks,
Anna

Some people have found that not having accented characters or spaces in the file name cures it. The bug has been reported.

  • ? about keeping files in original order when sending attachments

    Hi there, I have a question about sending attachments. Is it possible for the files/folders to remain in the order that I have originally put them in my documents etc...? When I go to send an attachment it automatically rearranges the folders in alphabetical order. Can anything be done to prevent or over ride this function? BTW: I have the new macbook with leopard.
    Cheers,

  • Files corrupting when sending email attachments from Mail & Thunderbird

    Hi All
    I'm hoping that someone will be able to help here as this problem is driving me crazy!
    Most if not all of my email attachments are corrupting when sending from Apple Mail and Thunderbird.  I'm also having issues with publishing files via FTP from Rapidweaver 5!  I have spoken to BT about the issue but they have tested the line and say everything is OK.
    The strange thing is, it's happening on my MacBook Pro (Mountain Lion) and my Mac Pro (Lion). The problem's also happen when I'm using a friends high speed internet connection so that only leaves the server. I'm really out of my depth with the server side of things though. I did have a reply from Servage (my hosting company) who said I may have been the subject of a hack and an upload script!! Not sure what this means or how to check if this is the case. One question though, would this corrupt email attachments as well as uploading to the server?
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Further to the above:  I have now found that the same corruption happens when I email attachments and FTP from my PC laptop, so this rules out a computer issue.  I have also swapped wireless routers and exactly the same problem.  As mentioned above, I don't get the corruption when using another internet connection.
    Also, I have an iPhone which I've restored to factory default settings and when I take a photo with the phone and email it (using my home wireless network), the file corrupts, everytime.
    Using services such as YouSendIt and WeTransfer, gives the same problems!
    I'm desperate for help on this one and I'd even pay someone to resolve it!

  • Using Lightroom 5.7, Raw files become from my Nikon D810 become corrupted when I select them to view or edit.

    .Updated to Lightroom 5.7 to accommodate the Nikon D810. Upon importing RAW files to the files become corrupted when they are selected to be viewed or edited.
    I am using Windows 7, 64 bit, with 8 GB Ram.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    There are several likely sources of corruption, and video card would be far down on my list of possible suspects.
    The transfer from camera card to hard disk is the most likely place for problem, either the card reader or USB cable can go bad. Another likely source of problems is the computer's hard disk is starting to fail. The camera card itself may be bad. And lastly, the memory in the computer may be malfunctioning.

  • Why does the file Name for file attached with Annotations "Attach File" (paperclip) become Unknown when Comments are Published?

    Our company recently purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro XI for the purpose of using it for shared electronic reviews.  We are using Send for Shared Review created in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, and all the Comment tools work as expectedexcept the paperclip in Annotations.
    When a Word or Excel or Image(png,jpeg) file is attached using the Annotations paperclip, the initiator can initially see and open it. But after Publish Comments is selected and the review file is closed, the file "Name" changes to "Unknown" (although the Description has the correct file name and extension).  The Modified information is Unknown, as is the Size and Compressed Size.
    When the review file is then re-opened, even the initiator cannot open the file, although:
    The file location is marked with the paperclip within the document.
    The file name is shown in the Comments List with the initiator's name.
    In the Attachments list (the paperclip beneath the Thumbnails and Bookmarks) the Name appears as Unknown, Description shows the file name, Modified is Unknown, Size is Unknown, and Compressed Size is Unknown.
    The file Name cannot be edited, although the file Description can be.
    We have followed the procedure described in the tutorials but cannot figure out how to troubleshoot this situation.  Since this feature was the reason for the purchase of Adobe Acrobat Pro IX, we would any help. Please don't leave out any basics since we are all new users.
    We have several people with Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and the rest have Adobe Reader XI and it is a Windows platform.  Can someone please give us some advice how to get this feature to work as described?

    FYI Rave,
    There are some other forum entries with this exact same issue...:

  • When sending an e-mail I used to just click on contacts then click on the name or group I wanted to send the e-mail to and move it to the "To" area of the e-mail.  All of a sudden I now get a full screen in "contacts" and can no longer move a name .

    MacBookPro 15
    OS - Yosemite
    Problem area - "Contacts"
    Problem - when sending an e-mail in "Mail" I used to open contacts to get an address.  A small window opened, I clicked on addressee and moved the addressee name to the e-mail.  Can no longer do this because I now get a full screen in Contact.
    Question - how do I get back to the small window in Contact?

    Mike,
    Are any of your other applications going wonky, or is it just Logic?
    I'm afraid I've never heard of this particular problem before, but if it were happening to me the first thing I would do is delete my "com.apple.logic.express.plist" file in Library>Preferences, then repair permissions in Disc Utility, and finally restart my computer.  Then I would launch Logic and see if the problem has been corrected.  It's amazing how much these two steps can accomplish.
    If that doesn't resolve the issue I would launch Logic and go to Preferences>Audio Units Manager to see if all my plug-ins are properly validated.

  • Strange characters when sending messages in Mail 2.1.2

    When sending messages from Mail 2.1.2 , some of the recipients get strange characters when opening my messages
    I use a french keyboard with ponctuations that appears to the recipients as black diamond with ponctuation marks in the middle.
    Is it something from my end?

    Here is some info on the problem. Sending plain text instead of rich text is the easiest thing to try.

  • I can't send attachments with MAIL

    Please help me. Since I have installed Leopard, I have problems to send attachments by mail. People to whom I send, they don't receive them.
    Does anybody have any idea about to solve this trouble?
    Andrea from Italy

    so you look in your Sent folder and the email with attachment is shown as sent, and you do not receive an error message on your computer.
    then i would say it is purely a recipient error, and i am not sure how we can help on these pages not knowing what system they use or if on the web. do you have a friend to whom you can send an attachment that also uses a mac by any chance? does he/she receive the attachment fine, or no attachment either?
    hope this helps

  • How to specify "From" address when sending Outbound e-mail from Siebel

    Hi, when sending an e-mail to Outlook exchange server among all there are 2 fields: Sender and From, where Sender is an address of the profile from which e-mail will be sent and "From" address is the one that will be displayed to the receipient ("From" is not related to any profile and any e-mail address could be specified there).
    My question is how can we specify this "From" address in Siebel while using standard e-mail functionality (Communications Outbound Manager sends data based on created activity record). Client wants to specify any e-mail address regardless ofcommunication profile used (which is only one).

  • Video files seem to become corrupted when I adjust speed

    Hello,
    I have started editing a new project, and am experiencing a familiar problem that I have encountered in the past, but which was never really resolved. I'm not very technical, so apologies if my description of the problem is simplstic.
    The problem is that after making certain edits in the Project window, I find that the entire project has some how become corrupted: i.e. every single clip becomes impossible to edit - I can't spool through the clips and view them in the screen by dragging my mouse cursor over them, and I can't even delete the clip whose edit seemed to result in the corruption.
    If I leave the project to go back to the project library, it is now impossible to re-enter the project. The words "edit project" in the button at the top left become grey. I find that the most common cause for this problem is whenever I attempt to adjust the speed of a clip, or reverse it. Is this a common problem with a simple solution?
    I have come up with a makeshift solution, which is far from satisfactory, but does sometimes help: I remove the file in the iMovie Events folder in Finder that contains the clips that I can no longer edit, and open up iMovie. The event library in iMovie will now be empty; I replace the events files back into the iMovie Events folder in Finder, then import a random clip into iMovie. The random clip is imported into a seprate event of its own, and the original file that I had put back into iMovie Events reappears simultaneously. Sometimes when I do this, the clips in the Project library are editable again, but not always.
    However, I would far rather that the programme simply processed my edits without corrupting the project. Is anyone familliar with this problem, and does anyone have a solution. Thank you very much in advance.

    There are several likely sources of corruption, and video card would be far down on my list of possible suspects.
    The transfer from camera card to hard disk is the most likely place for problem, either the card reader or USB cable can go bad.

  • ORABPEL-02100 - Deployed file location becoming corrupt.

    I've had an SR open with Oracle for months on this one and it's made zero progress. Under load (BPEL 10.1.2.2) we sometime see the following error :
    <BaseCubeSessionBean::logWarning> Error while invoking bean "process manager": Cannot find process content file.
    Cannot find the content file "1.0" for process "TaskActionHandler" (revision "").
    Please check that the path "1.0" is correct and refers to a file that has been included as a part of the
    deployment archive.
    Once the problem starts we have to re-start bpel to clear it. The content file name has become corrupt and instead suddenly contains the revision number. Revision number has in turn become null. This can effect any of the deployed processes and appears to be random but perhaps load related.
    Luckily it's rare but has a catastrophic effect on the the in-flight instances.
    Rob

    I got fed up waiting for something (anthing!) positive from Oracle Support on this so decided trawl the BPEL logs myself...
    Our ORABPEL-02100 error appears to be a side effect of an earlier problem:
    The first time a BPEL process is called we sometimes see :
    08/01/28 05:01:39 java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 10
    08/01/28 05:01:39 at java.util.ArrayList.add(ArrayList.java:355)
    08/01/28 05:01:39 at com.collaxa.cube.rm.suitcase.PartnerLinkBindingsDescriptor.getPartnerLinkBinding
    s(PartnerLinkBindingsDescriptor.java:50)
    etc
    Every time the service is invoked afterwards (until we restart BPEL) we see:
    08/01/28 05:51:33 java.lang.NullPointerException
    08/01/28 05:51:33 at com.collaxa.cube.xml.xsd.xerces.ProcessSchemaManager.loadWSDLs(ProcessSchemaMana
    ger.java:181)
    etc
    It appears to occur when you get a two parallel threads executing the same BPEL process at exactly the same time where that process has yet to be invoked since the App Server started. To me it looks like a java sychronisation issue in the wsdl caching code.
    Anyone else experienced this arrayList exception in getPartnerLinkBinding ?
