Graphic file attachments ?

When I send an attachment that contains a graphic file,
I don't want the file displayed in the body of the email.
I only want to see an icon that represents the attachment.
How do I prevent the graphic file from displaying inside the message ?
When the file is displayed there, does it mean the email is carrying
2 copies of the file, one copy inside the message,
and one copy as an attachment ?
All feedback is greatly appreciated.

The Mail.app displays all image/graphic type attachments and smaller PDF attachments (1-2 pages) inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default which cannot be turned off.
If you want such an attachment to appear as an icon, control-click on the viewed in place attachment and at the menu window that appears, select View as Icon.
Regardless, the attachment is sent as a true attachment to the message and the message is not carrying 2 copies of the file.
Depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, such an attachment may appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message when the message is opened (such as the Mail.app) or as an attached file which must be opened separately for which we have no control over.

Blocking Inbound File Attachments

Hi,
Currently, we are upgrading our email firewall from Borderware to Cisco C160 Ironport. I have loaded the config file and am now in the process of setting up/configuring policies, content filter. I want to block certain inbound attachments such as .exe's, .bat, etc.
I go to the following:
Mail Policies
Incoming Content Filter
Choose Add filter and provide filter name (optional)
Choose Add Condition
Attachment File Info
File Type is
Here is where I choose certain file types to block or allow through depening on the filter I am creating.
Do I have to create a new conditon for each file type I want blocked or can I choose multiple file extensions somehow??
Any help is greatly appreciated.

You can block file attachments by file extension such as .exe, .ppt etc. with the knowledge that someone could change an exe file to .xex and it would be accepted. The other option is to block by file type which looks at the binary signature of the file and determines if it matches. There are pre-configured categories of file types like Executable, Graphics etc. You can select the category or you could pick the individual file. Selecting Exectuable would block every file deemed as an executable under the category and would prevent the renaming of the file.

I had two files named graphics and I replaced one graphics file with another which was the wrong one. Can I undo my replacement? I move the wrong one, which was on my desktop into another one and that is when it as me if I wanted to replace the file.

I accidently replaced a file with another. Can I undo my action?
I had two files named graphics. One was on my desktop and another was within another file called solitarie. I move the one on my desktop (wrong file) into the solitarie file and was asked if I wanted to replace the graphics file in the solitarie folder (the correct one). I said yes accidently and then remembered that I had made a mistake. If I use undo, it only move the wrong file back to the desktop. Is there an undo of replace?

Sorry, but's that's why you get the warning. "Replace" means just that - the new file over-writes the old one. There is no undo.

"Open with" Photoshop doesn't open the graphics file

I use an old version of Photoshop (6.0) - but it does all I need, which is the reason I haven't upgraded. Sometimes over the past few years, when I've installed the programme afresh (on a new PC, or after a reinstallation of XP for instance) I get the following annoyance and I wonder if anyone has any ideas how to solve it.
When I right-click on a jpg, bmp (etc. etc.) file and choose 'Open with ... Adobe Photoshop' from the context menu, this action opens up the PS programme, but the actual graphics file I have clicked on does not open with it. I have to browse for it from Photoshop once it has opened, which is annoying of course if the file is buried deep in a sub-sub-subfolder somewhere and/or I have many files to work with.
At first I tried uninstalling and reinstalling PS, but that doesn't fix the problem. Anyone know what I can do?
Thanks,
Martin

In the top dialog you can click on Change to set the default program to open the file type.
You can add other actions, like Print and Preview, by clicking on the Advanced button (see the lower dialog) and using New... .
You may need to click on Restore if you don't see an Advanced button.
I use PS to open and the Viewer to preview.

Adobe forms with file attachments

Hello,
I want to use file attachments in my offline adobe forms. I have found some articles about how to do that but it was all related to webdynpro which i'm not using for this scenario.
Does anyone know how to do that in plain ABAP?
Many thanks in advance for your help!

How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something if i use firefo

How can I disable the automatic hiding of known file attachments, and why are always about 10 internet pages where I have to download something when I use mozila firefox?
Windows Computer

1) If you are talking about the file names on the computer, there is a
setting to turn off known file types. Open your file browser. Then
just under the location bar, press '''Tools,''' then '''Folder Options.'''
A new window will open. Select '''View.''' Look for
'''Hide Extensions For Known File Types.'''
2) Never NEVER '''NEVER''' download anything unless you know what
it is. If a web site claims it needs to download something, what is it?
It could be something like the flash player, '''or a virus ! !'''
Ask questions, or go somewhere else.

Viewing Excel & PDF file attachments in Mac Mail 3.6

I setup my IMAP Gmail account on my Macbook's Mail 3.6. In the advanced tab of my Gmail account preferences in Mail 3.6 under "Keep copies of messages for offline viewing:" I have selected "All messages and their attachments"
Whenever I click on an Excel attachment, I get the error message "'filename' cannot be accessed. The file may be read-only, or you may be trying to access a read-only location. Or, the server the document is stored on may not be responding."
Whenever I click on a PDF attachment, I get the error message "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."
I then tried saving the attachments from Mail 3.6 to my hard drive, but received the same error messages when I tried to open them.
However, when I access my Gmail account using my browser and download the same attachments to my hard drive, they open up without any problems.
I have deleted the folder containing the emails containing the attachments from Mail 3.6 and re-synced it with Gmail. While it successfully completes the download of all of the messages and their attachments, the same problem occurs. Oddly enough, this problem does not occur with Word Document attachments or JPEG file attachments.
This is my first Mac and while I am extremely proficient with Windows, I am clueless with Mac OS X. I have read posts about AppleDouble and Compression, but can't seem to find those options to play around with, even though I do not think that either is the issue. Any help is highly appreciated.

Sijmons,
well, I didn' got confused but only wanted to help you with your Altzheimer
Geeborg,
I used to .Mac webmail with Firefox on Windows and opened a message with an attachment (mpg). I clicked on the small triangle behind the word "Attachments" and then I clicked on the name of the attachment. This opened a window stating that the attachment would be downloaded. After some time I was asked to open the file with application xyz (I don't remember the name) or to save it on disk. Choosing to open the file finally launched Windows Media Player which played the mpg.
Can you try these steps on one of your attachments?

File Attachments are blank - PDF IO Exception

Hi Everyone,
I have a Web Dynpro Java Application form that when submitted generates an Adobe Interactive form along with any attachments and starts a guided procedure. Today I'm experiencing a random error (see below), if I preview the Adobe form before the workflow starts then the attachments seems fine (correct size) but once submitted the first approver will get a null pointer exception and the file attachments appear blank. I've used the same data over and over again but it only happens randomly. I can't replicate it in my DEV or TEST to be able to debug nor can I find the cause. Anyone know what this error is?

How to edit file attachments in Mavricks Mail?

Does anyone know how to edit file attachments in Mavricks Mail?
Eudora, Foxmail and many other email programs allow you to simply click file attachment, open it, edit it, and FORWARD it to others.
This is extremely difficult with Mail because it forces every single incoming file attachment to be READ-ONLY which means you are forced to re-save a copy in a folder then after editing it you need to spend time to fish it out of the folder, reattach it and then forward to others. It is a huge time wasting headache not to mention polluting your system with extra copies of files.
Thanks

I believe you are missing something. I'm not on my Mac right now but there should be a setting where to save attachments and also muiltiples at one time.

Viewing File Attachments in a Portfolio

Hi,
Asus Transformer TF101 running 4.0.3
Workstation: Adobe Acrobat Pro 9
Tablet: Adobe Reader X (v10.2.0 J)
So I made a portfolio on my workstation with two pdf files.
In one of the portfolio files I added a file attachment by Opening File>Comment>Attach File.
Saved file and saved portfolio.
Open in Reader X on my workstation - no problems - selecting paperclip opens attached file.
However, when I save to my tablet and open portfolio and file I see the paperclip icon but attachment doesn't open on click.
Any idea why? Do I need make portfolio in Adobe Acrobat Pro X rather than 9 to make this work.
Recent announcement for Reader X says this should work - in fact has been out since 10.1.1: "Enhancements to Portfolios list and File Attachments on iOS: You can now view non-PDF children in PDF portfolios, and PDF File attachments on the iOS Reader. These capabilities already exist on Android since Reader 10.1.1"
Any help is appreciated - Thanks,
Muns

Anyone with info on this ? I have just ran into this problem myself, hard to believe there isn't a way to fix this .

How to preview graphic files on a home web server setup?

I apologize if this question is not asked in the most technical way, but here goes:
I'm read online on how to create a home web server or ftp server on a Mac computer. (I plan to do this with my G5, running OSX 10.6.4)
I would like to have a library of folders containing all of my graphic files that I've collected over the years in order to have access to them (if needed) when i'm working remotely.
I want to be able to easily view all of these graphic files like I can with Adobe Bridge (eps, psd, ai, gif, jpg, png, etc).
Is there software I can use that will allow me to view a gallery thumbnails of all of these file types when I am away from home and logging into the ftp server or web server?
I know software such as Transmission FTP will allow me to look at one image at a time, but I'd like to view an entire gallery of thumbnails at once for quick reference.
Thanks in advance.

Hi johnny-griswold;
The G5 was called a PowerMac and used a PowerPC processor.
The MacPro is an Intel based Mac and is capable of running 10.6.4.
You might what to drop your references to G5 because they are only confusing things.

I can't open PDF File Attachments

Hello,
I use the environments Windows 7, MS Office 2010 and Adobe Reader 11.0.09.
In the perferences on the categories Trust Manager I had actived the function: PDF File Attachments: Allow opening of non-PDF file attachments with external application
Now I'm trying in a PDF document to open a Word or Excel file and get the error message: Acrobat can not open the file attachment Because your PDF file attachment setting do not allow this file type to be opened.
And I can just open Word and Excel files.
If I open the PDF file with Adobe Acrobat 11.0.09 then I can do that.
Someone has a idea.
Regards
Erdem

Hi Aadesh,
I had actived the Trust Manager -> 'Allow opening of non-PDF file attachments with external application' on Acrobat and Reader 11.0.09.
I can open the non-PDF files with Acrobat but not with Reader.

Photoshop CS6 will not open any graphics files

Photoshop cs6 will not open graphic files, i have reset the settings. I get to see all the files in preview but when I try to open a file nothing happens, no error messages, no file opens, nothing.
When I use bridge I try to open the file with open in photoshop cs6 but again nothing happens. I found that if I reboot my PC photoshop will work correctly until I shut photoshop down but if I reopen it later before rebooting my pc now graphics files will open.

Changing format of all graphics files is very cumbersome - how to make it less so?

Hello,
This problem is happening in FM 8, running on Windows XP.
I have recently converted all the image files referenced in a book, from one format to another. When I open a chapter (.fm) file in that book, FM looks for the graphic file that has been referenced in the first frame it finds (I import all graphics by reference). It opens a navigation dialog so I can locate the missing file, at which time I select the new file instead. Unfortunately, I have to do this over and over, for each graphic referenced by the FM file. Isn't there a way for me to tell FM to look for the same base filename, but with a new extension? A default file type for imported files? Is there a way to modify the .fm file itself to change the reference to the imported graphics? Having to tell FM the new filename for every graphic in the book is cumbersome and time-consuming (and I will be doing the same thing for about 75 manuals!). If FM can remember the location of an imported file and look for subsequent files in the new location, can't it do something similar for file types?
Compounding this problem is the fact that when the navigation dialog opens, the files in the current folder are automatically listed in "List" form, and are not in alphabetical order. If there are many graphics in that folder, it takes extra time to hunt for the desired file, so I usually change the listing format to "Detail" and then sort on "Name". But even that takes time. Are there defaults I could set so that the folder's contents are listed in the navigation dialog in the format I choose? I'm not even sure whether this is a FrameMaker or a Windows issue, so I don't know where to look for option settings. (I have poked around in FM options dialogs, and also the help files, but haven't found any references to this.)
Help with even one of these would save me a lot of time.
Thank you!
Joyce Wermont

Error7103 -
Thank you for a quick response. I just tried this, and it seemed to work - I was able to edit the .mif file and change all the format extensions. Then I opened the .mif in FM and it looked OK, it loaded the correct graphic files automatically, and there didn't appear to be any scaling problems. But when I tried to save it as an FM doc file, it wouldn't allow that. Error message: "Filenames ending in .mif cannot be saved in Document format". I used Save As, btw. But it didn't work with plain Save either.
It sounds like you've been successful in saving .mif to .fm - any tips? Again, I'm using FM 8.
Thanks,
Joyce

Why are my received file attachments (Office files such as .doc, .docx, .xlsx but also pdf files) corrupted - so that I cannot open them?

For the last month, 90% of the file attachments that I receive by email will not open on my MacBook Pro (2009, running Mac OS 10.7.5). I get assorted messages, but generally saying that the file is corrupt, or the filename contains unacceptable characters. The problem has been generally with Word files (.doc and .docx)], Excel files (.xls and .xlsx) and pdf files.
The bit that I don't understand is that I can open the same email attachments (without any problem) when downloaded on my iMac. And I have recently found that colleagues who received the same emails can open them, and can transfer the files to me (usually by USB stick) … and then I can open them. But I still cannot open the same files received as email attachments on my MacBook Pro.
Which makes me think that the files (email attachments) are somehow being corrupted as they are downloaded?
I installed the Mac OS X Update Combined 10.7.5 in July, so perhaps this was when the problem started? And, although it may be unrelated, around the same time as this problem started, I transferred some files from a colleague's computer on a USB stick and found that the USB stick had picked up a virus/malware, which meant that the stick was dead, and I had to reformat the stick. I scanned my computer (using ClamXav, with the latest updates) and quarantined a file found on the USB stick and on my computer.
Any thoughts on why this might happen, and what I can do to sort it out (as it is making work very difficult - I travel a lot, and rely on being able to open and read files sent from countries all over the world, often by people using old versions of Office software)? I have never had problems in the past, and can't understand why my other computer, and my colleagues, can all open these files, but my laptop will not! Many thanks for any help!

I opened one of the PDF files in notepad and these are the first couple lines:
