How can I use Mac Mail to send a delayed mail?

I am trying to send a delayed email, meaning the email is not sent immediately
when the send button is pressed but at a pre-determined time.
I have looked through Google, tried different third party scripts available, including
Mail Scripts 2.10.3 by Andreas Amann, but none is supported under Mac OS X Lion.
I believe Mac Mail itself does not support this feature (to my disappointment),
but I read about using iCal and Automator to do my intended purpose.
However, I am not familiar with script-writing. If someone can provide me a
step-by-step procedure OR give me another way to do my intended purpose,
it will be highly appreciated.

I opened Airport Utility today and it appears to have been simplified to the point where you can't do much with it these days.
Yes, welcome to the Fisher Price toy box utility.. where nothing in the way of advanced usage is offered.
Is there a way to accomplish what I want to do that is reasonably simple?
You can put time controls onto the offending addresses.
But if the hackers know anything at all they know how to access the MAC address of the computer and change it.. so the effectiveness of this is limited.
Change the current setup and password.. You must use WPA2 Personal and I recommend you use a pure alphanumeric password, mix case and numbers of 20 characters or more for your situation.. do not give that password to anyone.. protect the admin password of the TC itself equally well but with a different password. And protect the physical access to the TC from anyone in your home.. because the fact is all security on the TC is an illusion if the TC has open access.
See how to find passwords here.
i forgot my password for my router, how can I change them.
So anyone can discover your passwords without your knowledge and leave no trace on your system.
If you make no progress.. I suggest replacement of the TC as the main router of your network.. you need something with controls.. and even better controls that allow you to block people.
The favourite one now is older Netgear WNDR3800 . .you might need to buy from ebay although a few new ones are still around.. alternatively the WNDRMACv2 is simply the same hardware in a white box.. instead of black.
Load gargoyle firmware onto it.. sorry if I even point to where you can find this info my post will be deleted.. I can say it.. just cannot help further.. so use google.. there are lots of posts and let me assure you this get combo.
You can continue to use TC at what it does best.. a dumb wireless AP and location for TM backups.

2 MACs - Can I use .mac to sync POP emails from MAIL when traveling

I use Yahoo Business (POP) email with the MAC MAIL software. I use a PowerBook G4 at home and just got a new iBook G4 for travel. I want to set up the travel computer and MAIL to receive and send mail while on the road. 2 Questions:
1) In a perfect world: I want to sync the emails (both sent and received) I worked with on the road with my home computer so I don't have to re-do the work I just did on the road. Can I use .mac to sync my mailbox folders before downloading the messages at home or will this corrupt the library file and make me rebuild my folders every time? I know I can set up the MAIL account to leave the received message on the server for my home computer to download, but this causes a lot more work!
2) If (1) is not possible, how can I capture the files I sent on the road to my home computer SENT folder? I save all sent messages at home.

Via the .Mac website, you can have .Mac check the POP account's incoming mail server to download received messages from the POP account to your .Mac account's Inbox mailbox.
In the interim, send a change of email address to all contacts providing your .Mac email address and start sending messages with your .Mac account.
When creating a .Mac account in Mail - Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk messages are stored on the server by default along with received messages. If you want to keep all these mailboxes/messages synchronized with Mail on both Macs, make sure these settings for the account are the same with Mail on both Macs.

Hi Jaime,
Are you saying, you are getting junk characters in the email attachment? Then pls check the following. Since you want to send Japanese fonts, please pass language 'J' in both objpack-obj_langu = '3' & doc_chng-obj_langu = '3' instead of '3' please replace it with 'J'.
Another thing which you may have to check is the SCOT device type. As I understand from my basis colleague, this may also affect your attachment fonts since the emails are sent through SCOT. Go to transaction SCOT-> Settings-> Device types for format conversion. Check whether wrong device type is defined for Japanese there. Hope this helps

Gokul

How can I use authentication type in sending/receiving a message

Dear all,
I am building a mail client program. I have a problem: I don't know use javamail to authenticate to mail server in while send/receive messages. I know some authentication types as PLAIN, LOGIN, CRAM-MD5, DIGIT-MD5, NTLM and GSSAPI. and I tried use "mail.imap.sasl.mechanisms" property, but it do not work. Any suggestion is helpful for me. Thanks!

Thank for quick your reply,
I checked with Imap protocol to receive message. The mail server supported authentication type: Plain and Login. Below is code:
      Properties props = System.getProperties();
      String socketFactoryClass = "javax.net.SocketFactory";
      String host = account.getIncomingHost();
      int port = Integer.valueOf(account.getIncomingPort());
      String fallback = "mail.imap.socketFactory.fallback";
      String imapSocketFactoryClass = "mail.imap.socketFactory.class";
      String emailAddress = account.getIncomingUser();
      props.put("mail.mime.base64.ignoreerrors", "true");
      if (account.isIncomingSsl()) {
        MailSSLSocketFactory socketFactory = this.getSSLSocketFactory(host);
        if (account.getSecureAuthsIncoming().equalsIgnoreCase("starttls"))
          props.put("mail.imap.starttls.enable", true);
        else
          props.put("mail.imap.ssl.enable", "true");
        props.put("mail.imap.ssl.socketFactory", socketFactory);
        props.put("mail.imap.sasl.mechanisms", account.getAuthMechsIncoming());
      props.put(fallback, "false");
      props.put(imapSocketFactoryClass, socketFactoryClass);
      Session session = Session.getInstance(props, null);
      String protocolName = "imap";
      if (Utils.isGmailAccount(emailAddress))
        protocolName = imaps;
      IMAPStore imapStore = (IMAPStore) session.getStore(protocolName);
      try {
        imapStore.connect(host, port, emailAddress, account.getIncomingPassword());
      } catch (Exception e) {.....}account.getAuthMechsIncoming() return authentication types, this instance is Login or Plain(as I tested). By the way, I have a problem how to check authentication types supported by server(as Evolution Mail on Ubuntu has)?. sorry for my English. Thank for your consider time.

How can I use mac pro as a server?

I want to use mac pro as a server which 4-5 people can use it at the same time.
Our computers are all macbook or iMac.
I want to share files when I edit videos and photos with my coworkers at a time.
1. Can we connect each mac to mac pro and share our files as a big memory storage?
2. And what can we do with this sharing system as a server?
3. Lastly, how can 4-5 macbooks/iMacs connect to mac pro? Airdrop or other network exists?
Thank you for reading!

The short answer is: no, they can't use the server as a compute server.
That's not quite true, but setting the server up in this way is complicated.
A single user could log on to the Server via screen sharing, assuming that was enabled for them, but only one user at a time could do this.
Many users can log on to the server simultaneously using the command line (using the Terminal and ssh) but they would not have access to any graphical applications, just UNIX command line programs.
There is also a distributed system called Xgrid that ceased to be distributed or developed since 10.7, that allows you to set up particular compute tasks on the server. However, this is not at all like running Photoshop on the server instead of the local machine.

How can I use InDesign Logo in word or e-mail signature?

Hello there
I'm guessing this is easy for some of you, but all these things are new to me and so seem difficult.
A friend of mine has created a logo for my publishing company Lapwing Books - great! The book is finished - great!
But I want to use the logo as an e-mail signature and in word for stationary etc.
How do I do that?
I tried simple copy and paste, which didnt work. And I've had a route around but can't work it out.
Any help greatly appreciated
Richard W Hardwick

I'm sure there's plenty of ways. But the quickest would be to select the Logo.
File>Export and select JPG and then make sure "Selection" is active.
Then insert the image into your email. Google the name of your email application and "insert image signature", e.g., "Outlook insert image signature"

How can I use Mac OS 10.4.11 and 10.5.5 back and forth?

I installed Mac OS 10.5.5 onto my G4 Sawtooth, which is running on an upgrade processor at 1.3 GHz and 2 GB RAM. The machine also has been running with Mac OS 10.4.11. I love both Mac OSs. But it is cumbersome to restart the machine back and forth. Is there anyway that I do not have to restart the machine for switching the Mac OSs?
Thanks.

I'll check with OWC and see what they say. I have an ACARD 6880M AEC Controller attached to two internal HD. It caused two Maxtor HD,on e after the other, click-to-death. Since that, I removed the ACARD and have been using one HD without any more "clicking" noise. I posted in the thread below about my experience. Nobody had similar experience. Nevertheless, if OWC feels that ACARD can work with both Mac OS 10.5 and 10.4 at same time, I may consider to put the ACARD back and place another HD in and see if it works.

How can I use external clock to implement a delay?

Hi all,
I am testing to use external clock to drive dev/PFI0 (on device 6711) which is used as the clock for the analog ouput. I have thinking two applications by using the external clock but I don't have much idea on the implementation yet.
First of all, I have a sequence of data (array) with each sample being sent at the interval of 1us. I use an external clock (10MHz) driving the PFI0 so it is pretty easy to achieve that goal. I am thinking what happen if I want each sampel being sent at different time. For example, if I have 5 samples, I want the first one sent 1us after the task start and wait 2us to send the 2nd sample, wait 5us to send the 3rd sample and wait 11 us to send the 4th sample, and wait 1us to send the last sample. Is it possible to achieve that based on the external clock?
Second question is about the delay. My code require ciritcal timing and the builtin delay doesn't behave very well because I am running in windows. I can increase the priority of the vi to highest, it helps a bit but still not perfect. I am thinking if it is possible to implement hardward delay based on the external clock. Any idea?

Hello dragondriver,
To answer your first question, yes you could send data in that fashion. You would have to programmatically build a pulse train and use that to trigger the sending of data. The answer to the second question is essentially the same. You should be able to programmatically build a pulse train with a delay and use it as trigger to begin whatever operation you have.

How can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

how can i use microsoft office on the mAC - what app do i purchase? help?!!

What aspect of Microsoft Office? Office is a suite of programs... Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc.
You've got several potential options. Libre Office and Open Office (both googleable) are 'open source,' free, downloadable programmes that will open most MS Office programmes and perform many of the functions of MS Office. Might be an idea to have a look round for reviews (etc) first, to see if they sound like they'll match your needs.
If you're keen to use the App Store, there's Apple's own suite of programmes: Pages, Numbers and Keynote. They're a word processor, spreadsheet programme, and presentation-type programme with similar functions to Word, Excel and Powerpoint respectively. They're pretty good for most functions, and are better integrated with Macs than MS programmes. They're excellent programmes for what they do, and relatively cheap (about £14 each?).
But if you're heavily reliant on MS, want ALL the bells and whistles of MS, or need to regularly transfer files between MS programmes on other computers and your laptop / desktop computer, then they might not be the best of ideas. Keynote - IME - can have some difficulties in transferring formatting to Powerpoint.
Finally, there's MS Office Mac 2011. You can't download MS Office from the App Store, but can order the CDs from most online stores (including Apple's own store). It might be worth price hunting - if you're a student, you can usually find the programmes relatively cheap (£38 at the moment on Software4Students, though you'll need to belong to an academic institution / have a UK .ac email address). Apple's own prices on MS software are unlikely to be the best prices out there (though the product will be identical).
MS Office includes Word, Excel and Powerpoint in the basic version. The slightly more expensive version (which, I think, is the £38 one on S4S) includes Outlook. Which - IME - is far more of a nuisance than Apple's native Mail programme.
(I should probably add - I'm an academic. I own both Apple's own programmes, and MS Office 2011. I tend to use the MS programmes more, if only because they're the ones that other people tend to use, and transferring between Apple and MS programmes is a minor inconvenience. Pages also lacks Garamond, my favourite work font. The Apple progs are, however, far more beautifully integrated, and would be MORE than good enough for most users...)

How can I use a progress bar in objective c mac

How can I use a progress bar in objective c mac? I have a code that downloads a file and I want to be able to let the progress bar increase by 1. A bit further on the code (to download the file) it needs to increase again. And so on...
My code
-(IBAction) downloadButtonPressed:(id)sender;{
    //get the path to the image that we're going to download
    NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://www.dropbox.com/s/l6o07m48npxknt4/Cluedo.zip?dl=1"];
    //get the path to documents folder where we're going to save our image
    NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
    NSString *DocumentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
    NSString *filePath = [DocumentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:@"Cluedo.zip"];
    //Download the file to memory
    NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url];
    NSError *error = nil;
    //Save it on the Documents directory
    [data writeToFile:filePath options:NSDataWritingAtomic error:&error];
    NSFileManager* fm = [NSFileManager defaultManager];
    NSString* zipPath = filePath;
    NSString* targetFolder = @"/Applications"; //this it the parent folder
    //where your zip's content
    //goes to (must exist)
    //create a new empty folder (unzipping will fail if any
    //of the payload files already exist at the target location)
    [fm createDirectoryAtPath:targetFolder withIntermediateDirectories:NO
                   attributes:nil error:NULL];
    //now create a unzip-task
    NSArray *arguments = [NSArray arrayWithObject:zipPath];
    NSTask *unzipTask = [[NSTask alloc] init];
    [unzipTask setLaunchPath:@"/usr/bin/unzip"];
    [unzipTask setCurrentDirectoryPath:targetFolder];
    [unzipTask setArguments:arguments];
    [unzipTask launch];
    //[unzipTask waitUntilExit]; //remove this to start the task concurrently

Your code really isn't suitable for a progress bar, not a real one anyway. Your code will spend about 99.9% of its time in the method "dataWithContentsOfURL:url". That is not a method you want to use in the real world. It is only for demos or proof of concept exercises. All network operations should be asynchronous. That gives you the ability to gracefully recover when there is a failure and also to do fancy things like display a progress bar and tell the user when the download is complete.
Once you get the asynchronous download logic working, then you can worry about the progress bar. The first thing you will need is the size of the file. Without that, all you can ever do is an indeterminate progress bar or spinner. If you have the size of the file, then you can keep track of how much of the file you have downloaded and update your progress bar with the percentage complete. Make sure to throttle it to no more than incrementing by 1% at a time. Otherwise, a large file or a file transferred in many small chunks, would waste too much time updating the progress bar for no change.
