How can I save an email as plain text when the save as is greyed out?

How can I save an email message as a plain text document if the saved as command is greyed out? I am using OSX Mountain Lion. Macbook Pro thanks.

OK, but is it happening to you with all messages or just some messages? If just some, can you characterize which ones? (Maybe messages with only one "alternative*" form, or with the "wrong" alternative for displayed, or messages containng images but no text?)
* By "alternative" form, I mean in the sense of Mail > View > Message > Previous Alternative or Next Alternative or Plain Text Alternaive or Best Alternative.)
Similarly, can you characterize the circumstances under which you cannot save an attachment?

    help me please

    You can't. Return the phone for a refund, if you can, because without the previous owner's Apple ID/Password, you will not be able to re-activate the phone. It will be useless to you.
    Apple can't/won't help you with this.

  • How can I keep my emails from being deleted from the Telus server so I can view them on my home computer as well?

    How can I set my IPad email account to leave the messages on the server?  I want them left on the Telus server until I choose to delete them.

    I have POP mail accounts on my iPad.
    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar leads me to the correct place.
    At the top will be a list of my Mail accounts.
    Tapping on an Account brings up all the info in the account.
    The Advanced choice is at the bottom of the window and usually requires scrolling down to see it.
    Tapping Advanced brings up another widow with the Delete from Server choice. Tap that and you can then tap Never.

  • How can I get sent emails to NOT appear in the Sent mailbox?  Thanks!

    OS X 10.8.3
    Mail 6.3 (1503)

    mbusa6,
    I agree with what you are saying. He made an assumption without getting all the data.
    You can start with this applescript. She could select the mail that was sent and run this applescript and file them in another mailbox for her to later individually file. Maybe that will help organize it better.
    Good luck.
    tell application "Mail"
              set the_selection to (get selection)
              if class of the_selection is not list then
                        return
              else if (count of the_selection) is 0 then
                        return
              else if class of item 1 of the_selection is not message then
                        return
              end if
              set target_mailbox to "To File"
              try
                        get mailbox target_mailbox
              on error
      activate
                        set the_mailboxes to name of mailboxes
                        set target_mailbox to (choose from list the_mailboxes) as string
                        if target_mailbox = "false" then return
              end try
      move the_selection to mailbox target_mailbox

  • How can I write a array to other subvi when the program running?

    Hello

    belongs to one case.My question is when I process the data I a certain subvI, how can I wrtie this file(an array)  to another subvi and
    show the file name in a listbox?
    Many thanks

    You could try using a global variable or  a shared variable.

  • How can i keep one email box separate from all the others....?

    I have 4-5 personal email accounts. Mail gets them all, and it works as i want it - with ALL my inboxes and sent mail aggregated.
    However, i now want to add my business exchange account. I want this totally separate - not mixed in with personal.
    Ideally i'd like to run two instances of mail - is that possible?
    If not, i'd like a completely separate set of mailboxes (in, sent, drafts, etc) for exchange mail.
    Can thsi be done? How?
    thanks.
    Grant

    At some point i just sigh and continue to use OAW, bad as it is.
    What is the problem with the suggestion I gave you?
    IO rally want to figure out a way to trick the system into letting me run two instances, or keeping the two accounts independent.
    Even if you could trick the system into running two copies of Mail, what do you think that would accomplish? They would both try to access the same Mail settings and data files. If the workarounds posted here aren't sufficient, you will just have to use a different mail client.

  • How can I see my email attachments on top of the mail rather than bottom of the email

    Hi,
    I always see the attachments in the bottom of my email where it becomes difficult to scroll down to look to the attachment. Sometimes it gets wired if the mail is long.
    I am also using Android where the attachment is viewed at top and same was the case of Blackberry. How could Apple miss it?

    In the iPhone mail app attachments are listed at the bottom and that cannot be changed
