How do I fix the slow attachment file dialog box in Mail?

I'm on 10.9.2, using Mail with an Exchange account. Everything works great except when I go to attach a file to an outgoing email the file dialog box takes ~1 minute to open. Only app I've seen this in.
I've tried the fixes posted for the general file dialog box being slow (e.g. comment out "/net" in the "auto_master" file) to no avail.
Other thoughts?

Click on the Firefox menu. Then click "Options". Go to "Applications" tab. Search for jpg and png file type. You will find they have "Always ask" action attribute. Change it to "Save file".
Hope it will work fine for you.

    how do i make the word save as dialog box stop popping up when trying to convert to pdf?

    Hi rus-tee,
    That's interesting--what are you using to convert your file to PDF? Are you using Word? Or are you using the Adobe PDF Pack online service. Please describe your process for converting to PDF, and we'll get to the bottom of this!

  • I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    I am trying to open CR2 files from a Cannon EOS 1DX camera in Photoshop CS6 and I have already updated the Camera Raw Plug in but Photoshop is still giving me the cannot open files dialog box? Help?

    Canon 1DX support was added to ACR in version 6.7, 7.1.  An updated CS6 should be at level ACR 8.6.  If your ACR is not at level 8.6 try using CS6 menu Help>Updates.  If that does not install ACR 8.6 try downloading the ACR and DNG 8.6 converter and see if ACR 8.6 will install into your CS6.

  • How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???

    How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???
    Where are the instructions on how the information in the Multiple Item Information dialog box equates to ...
    1. The way iTunes sorts tracks and albums
    2. The reason to select a leading check box
    3. Why there are Option selections (Yes /No) and leading check boxes.
    4. Why some changes remain in the track info, but do not "take effect" in iTunes (Part of a compilation is an example)
    Looked in Help, Support, went to the local Genius bar for an hour, even arrainged a call from apple support ...
    Thanks

    As Christopher says, it's a compilation. Different tracks are by different artists.
    Setting the *Album Artist* field to *Various Artists* and setting *Part of a compilation* to Yes should be all that is required. Depending on your *Group compilations when browsing* setting ( I recommend On ) either should suffice but I suggest doing both.
    Based on your commentary, I selected all the "O Brother" tracks, and checked the boxes for everything line that was blank in the Info and the Sort panes. Only exceptions were the album name and the disc number 1 of 1 and the artwork. I blanked and checked anything else.
    That's not what I meant. When you select multiple tracks, only those values which +are already common+ to all tracks are displayed. Typically these will include Artist, though not with compilation albums, Album Artist, Album, No. of Tracks, Genre plus various sort fields. A blank value may indicate that different tracks have different values or it may be that the value is blank for all tracks. For the drop down values on the Options tab the value shown may not reflect the information in every tag. If values you expect to be common, such as Album Artist or the Album title are not displayed you can simply type these in and click OK. This will often be enough to group the album.
    If you place a checkmark against the blank boxes and apply changes then you will clear those fields so you should only do this if that is the effect you want. Putting a checkmark next to an empty (representing different values) *Track No.* box, for example, will just clear the all the track numbers which is very rarely useful.
    Adding then removing extra text is for a specific problem where despite all common values being identical across the tracks of the album iTunes seems to "remember" that it should see two albums. A typical example would be when an album originally listed as *Album CD1* & *Album CD2* is given disc numbers X of Y and then has the Album name changed to Album. I've seen iTunes merge all but one track into the new album, but insist on listing one remaining track separately, despite both albums having the same title. In this case I've found overtyping the album title again has no effect whereas changing it to AlbumX and then back to Album does what I was trying to achieve in the first place.
    Don't forget that even properly organsied albums may still break up if you don't chose an album-friendly view. Sorting on the track name or track number columns can be useful in some circumstances but in general I revert to Album by Artist when browsing through my library.

  • How to displays the standard open file dialog box in Oracle Apps Server

    Hi,
    I am having a form, where i am opening a file and putting that file content in a text box.
    This is my code written in WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger:
    declare
    in_file Text_IO.File_Type;
    linebuf VARCHAR2(8000);
    filename VARCHAR2(30);
    BEGIN
    filename:=GET_FILE_NAME('d:\Rajesh\Practice', File_Filter=>'Text Files (*.txt)|*.txt|',select_file=>false);
    in_file := Text_IO.Fopen(filename, 'r');
    LOOP
    Text_IO.Get_Line(in_file, linebuf);
    :text_item5:=substr(:text_item5||linebuf||chr(10),1,5000);
    END LOOP;
    EXCEPTION
    WHEN no_data_found THEN
    Text_IO.Put_Line('Closing the file...');
    Text_IO.Fclose(in_file);
    END;
    I have posted this in ORacle Apps Server.Where i was not able to get the Open Dialoq Box.It is giving an error as
    "FRM-40735:WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger raised unhandled exception ORA-302000.".
    I think the GET_FILE_NAME function is not supported in the Apps Server.
    Is there any alternative solution for getting the OPEN DIALOG WINDOW in Oracle Apps Server?
    Pls let me know.

    Are you sure? I think, that File Dialog, called by LabVIEW File Dialog from Advanced File Functions Palette doesn't blocking any cycles in subVI, which running in UI Thread. Look in my old example (that was prepared for other topic, but may be good for this topic too).

    I think, you must a little bit reorganize you application for to do this. You must put your File Dialog into separated cycle. This cycle, of course, will be blocked when File Dialog appear on the screen. But other cy

  • How can I fix the quick time file zh_CN.1proj that is corrupted on my computer.

    How can I fix file zh_CN.1proj that is corrupted on my computer.  I cannot delete Quick Time because of this file.

    The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • How do you customise the finder "save as" dialog box?

    Hi
    I get a lot of email with attachments that I need to work on - word documents and powerpoint slides mainly.
    I am still running Snow Leopard and I think Finder is very frustrating. Has it been improved in this aspect in Mountain Lion?
    Firstly, if I look at the email and click the "save" box next to the attachment, it immediately puts the attachment in the download folder. I dont want that. I want to be given a dialog box giving me options where to save the file in my heirachy of folders that I have set up by client and project. Sending it to the download folder is a naff default, but I cannot find a way to change this default?
    Secondly, if i scroll down to the bottom of the email to see the attached file, and then right click to "save as", I get a dialog that is devoid of all the customisation options I have chosen for the standard finder view. For examply, I cannot get the "path" to be displayed as part of the "save as" dialog box.
    This is all pretty fundamental stuff, and Windows have been able to offer much better customisation and default setting in Windows Explorer for years. WHy is OSX so far behind in this aspect?
    Is Lion better?
    Do I have to fork out an additional $35 for each of my 3 macs to buy "Default Folder" just to get something that should be basic workflow management within the OSX  
    Am I missing something?

    Thanks Jeffry
    Yes I am using the expanded save dialog.
    Thanks for pointing out how to change the default save location away from the downloads folder.
    What I really want, though, is for when I press the "save" button next to an attachment in the email, then I want to be given the choice of where to save it, and easy ways of navigating to my recent folders, favourite folders etc. Each file I save will need to go to a folder dependent upon which client it is, so just saving then all by default into "Documents" for example, means that after saving them, I then need to go and move them to the correct location.
    How to I get to have a choice if where to save whenever I press the SAVE button 

  • How do I resize the "Save Document as" dialog box

    I have an office laptop with InDesign CS 5.5 somehow my dialog box has become huge! and I can't figure out how to make it smaller again. (see screenshot below)
    Whenever it is saving I have hovered my mouse over the edges and corners and it just keeps the circle showing that it is busy and won't let me resize it.
    I don't mind it so much when I have my laptop docked and am using the duel screens at the office but when I am having to work from home on the laptop the box is taller than my screen.
    Unfortunately since this is a work computer I can't do anything such as uninstall and reinstall without having to involve the IT department. Is there an option I'm not finding or a cool shortcut I can try to make this dialogue box go back to it's original size?
    side notes:
    InDesign CS5.5 (not most updated version because it will not work with MediaLink)
    my InDesign is paired up with MediaLink which helps handle the flow of advertisements that need to be worked on

    It's hard to tell exactly what is the Save As dialog box, but I'm guessing it's the large gray rectangle on the left side.
    I don't think this is an InDesign problem as much as a Windows problem.
    You may have to bring your IT people into this.

  • How do I fix the slow transfer speed over USB on my 24" iMac?

    I am backing up/cloning with SuperDuper, and running Lion.  The displayed transfer speed never gets past about 20mb per second.  Painfully slow....  Any suggestions?

    Actually that's pretty good for USB. USB is slow - there is nothing you can do about it. Firewire always has been faster. Personally, I only use external Firewire drives for cloning or backing up. Even then, if it's a fresh clone, it'll take moe than an hour for 160 GB.
    So, I schedule it when I have other things to do and walk away until it's done.

  • Please fix: Common Open File Dialog Box to support Favorites (Follow-up: Better provisioning in the Windows client)

    One more thing:
    What's missing is favorites is a way to use the favorites space in the Common Open File Dialog Box.
    Please obsolete or (re)develop components in Windows, so those components support any new workflows in Windows!
    On example of an application where you cannot use Favorites is Adobe Photoshop. It uses the Common Open File Dialog Box in Windows (which does not support Favorites).
    Comparing Finder (MacOS) with Windows Explorer - you "seem" to have the option of using favorites to pin folders.
    Well, if your application calls Windows to use the Common Open File Dialog Box - it's actually NOT POSSIBLE AT ALL to navigate to the user concepts (user folders) pinned to favorites.
    Again, the favorites namespace is completely unused (not provisioned) out-of-the-box. That's may be ok, however it's not fully implemented across Windows and just another example of stuff accumulating up to being unusable.
    What's missing is favorites is a way to use the favorites space in the Common Open File Dialog Box.

  • 'Open a File' dialog box doesn't show 'Favorites'

    InDesign CS6, Windows 7:
    File/Open gives me this:
    Notice there are no 'Favorites' on the left.  I have to 'browse' for my file each time.  I have a ton of files on the network, and it takes several clicks to get to them.  Annoying when I'm opening several files a day.  The 'Recent Places' isn't too helpful here either.
    Now look at what happens in InDesign CC, Windows 7 with a File/Open:
    Look at all the 'Favorites' and easy browsing on the left side.  Why are the 'Open a File' dialog boxes so different in CS6 and CC?  I want the CS6 'Open' dialog to be just like the CC one.  (I prefer to use CS6, CC is buggy on my system.)

    Not helpful.
    What it is... is cumbersome and un-necessary.  Every other program in Windows  (even Word Pad) opens with the 'standard'  dialog with Favorites on the left.  Why did Adobe program it differently?  There has to be a fix in Preferences or something...

  • ICloud doesn't show up in Numbers open file dialog box

    How do you add iCloud to the Numbers open file dialog box? It doesn't show up for me. I've already set up iCloud in my system preferences and enabled document synching.

    Unfortunately, since I don't use iWork on my Mac I'm not going to be much help.  But unless there's something in Numbers settings that you need to enable to use iCloud like you do in the iOS version, all you should need to do is enable Documents & Data in System Preferences>iCloud, which you said you already did.  You might try unchecking this setting in System Preferences, restarting your Mac, then checking it again to see if that makes any difference.  That is a standard troubleshooting step for other iCloud syncing issues.

  • HT1338 I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is starting slow and opening with some of the programs. How can I fix the problem?

    I updated my MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion and now it is slow in starting up and loads a number of probrams. How can I fix the problem?

    Have you tried starting in Safe Mode and see if the slowness still occurs?
    Restart holding the "shift" key.
    (Expect it to take longer to start this way because it runs a directory check first.)
    If this works look in System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login items and delete any third party login items (-), you can always add them back with the (+). Also look in /Library/Startup Items. Nothing is put in that folder by default, so anything in there is yours.
    Reboot normally and test.
