  • No file extensions for attachments?

    Any time I attach a document using Mail, it appears as a .doc file (with that file extension). However, when people receive it (both Mac and Windows users), they always say that there is no file extension, or they even say that it is saved as a .mpeg
    I have no problem sending out the same documents through a webmail server.
    I have "Always Send Windows Friendly Attachments" selected.
    Any suggestions as to how I can ensure it retains the .doc extension in Mail?
    Thanks!

    I'm not sure if I'm having the same issue as you, but when I send attachments through Mail, the recipients tell me that the file name has been truncated. This is especially frustrating when the file name includes important information like date, time, etc. in the file name to help identify what version of the file it is. How do I fix this issue?
    I, like you, have also made sure to check the box for "Windows friendly" attachments, but that still hasn't seemed to fix the issue. This issue also just popped up one day out of the blue. I used to be able to send attachments without the file name being truncated.
    Any suggestions?

  • Missing file extension

    Hi everyone,
    We noticed there was no file extension in clip names captured by Final Cut Pro. We switched on the "show file extension" in finder's preference, but it doesn't change anything.
    Is there anything I've missed

    not quite Nicolas
    although that will ceratinly work if that is what you want/need to do.
    the issue here is that the 'correct' suffix/extension is not needed.
    historically, Mac OS has not used file type extensions, they have used resource fork data (file type and creator code - metadata held within the header block of the file itself)
    as Apple has progressed to Mac OS X they have distanced themselves from this kind of metadata in many applications ... but not universally. FCP being a prime example.
    if you come from a PC world you may well assume that your files absolutely need this kind of naming extension, but in a Mac world this is not at all the case. your clips do not need to be named .mov files or what have you. they will still be .mov files even without the extension.
    hope that helps

  • Hide file extension from display in the iview

    Hello my friends,
    I display KM folder content in an iView in my portal. I want to hide the files extension but I just cann't find out how to do it.
    Thanks in advance,
    Udi Dekel.

    Hi Udi,
    There is no such standard feature, but at least one possible workarounds:
    - You may use a display name like "MyDocument" and the ID will be "MyDocument.doc" or whatever. The standard ResourceRenderer render the display name (with the ID as a tooltip)
    A "solution" for all cases where the display name has got the file extension in its name would be to write your own property renderer for the display names, which then checks if there is a file extension, and if, then cut this off.
    Hope it helps

  • UTI associated with wrong file extension

    Okay, here is the deal. There are two file extensions, rar and cbr, that are associated with the Uniforma Type Identifier com.rarlab.rar-archive. I do not want the file extension cbr to be associated with com.rarlab.rar-archive. How do I break this association?

    In Finder, do a Get Info on a .cbr File, look for Open With, chose what you do want to open itwith, check the Apply to all box.

  • Apache Commons Net - Retrieve File - Extension, Compare , Move - FTP Server

    Dear All,
    I am using Apache Commons net FTP Library for FTP Operations. I had a few doubts
    1) I like to retrieve ftp files only with some extensions like *.txt or *.jpg etc. How can we retrieve files with specifying file extension?
    2) I need to compare the FTP Files with the local files before downloading from the FTP Server?
    3) I need to move files from the ftp server to local directory. Is there is anyway to move the files rather than first retrieve files from the FTP Server and then deleting the file in the FTP Server using FTP delete()
    Thanks,
    J.Kathiresan

    1) I like to retrieve ftp files only with some
    extensions like *.txt or *.jpg etc. How can we
    retrieve files with specifying file extension?
    List the files and then filter the list to those that you want to process.
    2) I need to compare the FTP Files with the local
    files before downloading from the FTP Server?Think about this one! To compare two files you nead to read both. If you do this on the client then you will have to copy the file from the server first!

  • Is there something comparable to My Documents in Windows that will allow pdf files in Quickoffice to appear?

    I have an iPad 2. I need to send pdf files from Quickoffice to my school's copy center for duplication to distribute to my students. When I click on choose files at the SUNY's copy center, I am only able to access Camera Roll and Photo Stream. Is there something comparable to My Documents in Windows that will allow pdf files in Quickoffice to appear?

    Perhaps I am not clearly stating my problem. I always used my desktop or laptop to send files that were handouts to the copy center since I do not use a textbook for one English class. Both crashed within a two-day span so until I can get one fixed, I am hoping to use the iPad. I have all my files saved as PDF files in my email. I have added the Quickoffice app and transferred next week files from school email to Quickoffice. When I access SUNY's website to send my files to be copied and click on choose file, all that is there are photos. If there is not a central location in iOS, then how would I manually sync the files in Quickoffice to whatever is allowing the photo files to appear?

    I was having an issue opening a spreadsheet with the file extension .xlsm. This appears as an attachment from a client which means macros were utilized when creating the spreadsheet. The problem lies in. The iPads ability to open the attachment. I downloaded the numbers app thinking this would be a default software to open any and all spreadsheets.
    Please Help!
    Ipad 2- iOS5

    You may need a version without macros on it. Unfortunately, pretty much all apps are skinned down versions of their original program, often with less functionality. For example in a word document I can italicize,bold and underline, but I only have a handful of fonts to play with and I don't think I can insert tables or images.
    It is very possible that the app simply cannot run macros, which means that document may never work on an iPad.

  • Is there a way to hide ALL file extensions?

    Hi
    I am looking for a way to get OS X to hide ALL file extensions on the entire computer. I don't know why, but they really annoy me! I liked OS 9 and earlier because they didn't have them, and including them in OS X seems like a step backward to me. Wherever I can I simply don't save with file extensions (MS Office still retains this ability), and most applications will still open their files if you delete the file extension, but I do have a number of applications that require a file extension (such as OmniGraffle Pro), and it is very laborious to have to go through every file in order to hide the file extension. Is there some kind of master setting that you can apply to a volume in order to hide every file extension in it?

    Hi All,
    I have found this tutorial that partially solves the problem. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NhRFxJCAQw
    It is a quick way to hide the extensions of all files that have them in a given folder and the folders inside it, using automator. It does not hide the extensions of any file you add to the folder subsequently, and you can not apply it to a volume or a home folder. It is more of a labour-saving tool than an actual solution, but it is vastly better than having to get info for every single file.
    As the author of the tutorial notes in his video, this is an option that apple could fix by just adding one more check-box to the finder preferences window. Or better still they could have just left things the way they were before and not introduced them in the first place... does anyone even know what they are for anyway? (Apart from to annoy you with a random bit of text at the end of a filename that you didn't place there.)

  • Is there a shortcut for adding file extensions?

    I have an archive of over 15,000 images, all TIFF, JPEG and Photoshop images. None of them have file extensions. They were saved back when Mac did not use extensions. Now they will not open if I just double click on them... I must add the correct extension, then it opens fine.
    It will take me FOREVER to click on each one, type in the extension, then click "Add".
    Is there a script or shortcut to name all these old files? Or shareware?
    Or at the very LEAST is there a way to turn off that annoying dialog box to confirm that I want to add the extension?
    Thanks, any feedback will be appreciated.

    I have a whole lot of very old graphic files, and thought I would try Kappy's recommendation of Renamer4Mac, combined with a Spotlight search to see how speedily one could add extensions. So did a Spotlight search on a backup folder that contains many and varied sub-folders containing many and various images. To get the old pict files I hit command-F from the top level folder, selected that folder (WHY does search have "This Mac" as the default???), and for Kind I selected Other and typed:
    Adobe Photoshop PICT file
    in the blank field. It returned a list of 961 old pict files. Launched Renamer and told it to insert the text pct, at position 1 from left, suffix only. Then dragged a batch of the files from the search results window into the top pane of the Renamer window, clicked the Rename Files button, et voila'! The files were renamed (and no confirm dialog box).
    To figure out what to put in the Kind:Other field, just do a search on Kind:Images and note the different types. Thus, something that needed the psd extension would be Adobe Photoshop file, to find tifs, it would be TIFF image. You might have some "QuickDraw picture" as an image kind, they are pict files. Plain jpegs can be brought up with Kind: JPEG image, extension jpg. And so on.

  • Is there a way to persuade my machine to make 3 letter file extensions?

    Hi,
    I have been having a frustrating time trying to share images exported from iPhoto, created with Grab, etc, as they all seem to make 4 letter file extensions (.jpeg, .tiff) which the illustrious Windows cannot read, and I am tired of changing them manually.
    Is there a way to change either Finder settings or individual Apple software settings to ONLY export the more universal 3 letter file extensions?
    Thank you for your help,
    T.

    Yes, of course. This is where I have noticed the problem. Emailing directly from iPhoto the images are tagged .jpeg, however if they are saved to a folder, then 'attached' ticking the box for 'Windows friendly attachments' in Mail, then it works. but I have not found a direct way to do it.

  • Is there a list of file extensions?

    I'm just curious what *.epub and *.dmg and others are that I don't know having come from the W word community.

    There are numerous web sites that list reems of file extensions and their associations - just google for "file extensions"
    epub is an electronic publication, basically an ebook format.  It is the most common format for ebooks from Barnes and Nobel, Kobo and other ebook retailers (Amazon being the big exception, since they have their own proprietary ebook format). Note though that epub books can be DRM (i.e. digitally locked) encoded - for example, Apple's iBook epub files are DRM locked to Apple's own iBook reader.  B&N and Kobo ebooks are also DRM locked, but you can use Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) app to authorize them on non-B&N or non-Kobo readers.
    dmg is a disc image file - typically used to bundle and compress applications for electronic distribution.  You download dmg files for apps from the App store, for example, double click to open them, run the installer or drag'n'drop the application into your Applications folder, then close and delete the dmg file (or archive it if you want to keep a backup).

  • The difference between a .dmg file & a .cdr file (using Disk Utility) ?

    Hi,
    In particular, I created both from a DVD using Disk Utility.
    When I chose "read only" a .dmg was created.
    When I chose "DVD/CD Master" a .cdr was created.
    They are exactly the same size.
    Is there any difference ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Pat De Marco

    HI Pat,
    From Wikipedia: A file with the extension .dmg (an abbreviation for disk image) uses a disk image format commonly found on Mac OS X. The format allows secure password protection as well as file compression and hence serves both security and file distribution functions. Its most common function is the distribution of software over the Internet. When opened, DMG files are "mounted" as a drive within the Finder.
    From: Wikipedia .cdr and ISO
    ISO image
    Filename extension .iso
    Uniform Type Identifier public.iso-image
    Type of format Disk image
    Standard(s) ISO 9660
    An ISO image is an archive file (a.k.a. disk image) of an optical disc using a conventional ISO (International Organization for Standardization) format that is supported by many software vendors. ISO image files typically have a file extension of .ISO but Mac OS X ISO images often have the extension .CDR. The name "ISO" is taken from the ISO 9660 file system used with CD-ROM media, but an ISO image can also contain UDF file system because UDF is backward-compatible to ISO 9660.

  • IPhone photo/video library glitch - wrong file extensions, name shift, lost files etc [LONG story - sorry]

    I have a 5s running 7.0.4. and my computer is running Windows 8.1.
    We had a baby and my phone filled up fast with pictures and videos, so I decided to offload them onto my PC. I connected my phone to the usb port, and directly copied from the DCIM folder to my hard drive.
    Something happened during the first attempt, and the process was interrupted. So I went into each of the sub folders, and selected all files, and started the copy process again. I told the computer to skip any existing files.
    So all the file counts matched in each folder, and I figured it was safe to start deleting from my iPhone.
    On my hard drive, I separated all the MOV files into my Videos folder. But in Windows Explorer, the thumbnail view showed several MOV files with no thumbnail - just the generic icon.
    As I sorted my photos into various folders, I also noticed a lot of generic icons instead of thumbnails for the JPGs. I started to feel concerned that my files had become corrupt during the transfer. But then I noticed a PNG file that was a few hundred megabytes. This was odd, so I added the MOV extension to it. Sure enough, it was a video with the wrong extension.
    I renamed every PNG and JPG file that had no thumbnail to add the MOV extension. Every one was a video with the wrong file extension.
    Then I went to the video folder, and all the MOV files that had the generic icon were actually JPG files.
    Well I was just happy to see that the files were not corrupt.
    One more time before I deleted things from my iPhone, I did a spot check to see that the largest videos were on my hard drive. I found a few videos that were not copied over, despite the file counts having been accurate. So I copied the videos again, and compared file sizes and date/times when there was an overwrite prompt. Most were matches, but several were the same file name with different sizes and dates.
    I didn't know what was going on, but I just wanted to get the files on my computer. So I renamed my local copy where there was a name collision, and copied the videos. I deleted the videos from my phone as I went along.
    I felt pretty confident that I had all the files copied now, so I began mass deleting my photos.
    I went to the Photos app on the phone, and watched the thousands of pictures disappear, and the glorious free space grow on my phone.
    But wait... there was still 1 video in the Photos app. I thought I had gotten all the MOV files off the phone...
    I have a photo info app installed, so I was able to see the file name of the video. I searched for that file name in the DCIM subfolders, but the folder that had that series of files (the IMG_3000-3999 files) listed the files with that particular video skipped. It was clearly still on my phone, because I could play it.
    Then I noticed it was a 45 minute long video of my baby. About 5 GB. So I figured it must be due to the file size that it wasn't visible from explorer. (Can't explain why that would be, but M$ keeps changing crap too. I never freaking know what to expect from them either.)
    After having deleted all the jpg, png and mov files from the DCIM folder, there were still about 26 files in my camera roll on the iPhone. And I could still view the video.
    I decided I wasn't concerned about the photos, I just wanted to figure out how to get the video onto my computer.
    So I selected all the photos in the photo app (skipping the 1 remaining video) and tapped the trash can.
    Poof! One item remained, and it was one of the garbage photos. My video is GONE! ^#@*&#($^@Q&%( And no, I didn't fat-finger it. I was very careful to select the correct thumbnails.
    Looking back, I know that I should have just started the entire file copy process from scratch when funny stuff started happening like mismatched file names. But I am a sleep-deprived new mom and just wasn't thinking clearly. It would be nice if I could have used my file/directory compare program to check the iPhone against my laptop, but it is not compatible with devices, only removable drives.
    And no, I don't use iTunes. I stopped using iTunes years ago when it would randomly decide to delete contacts from my phone just because they didn't exist on my computer or some sh-- like that. I have always just manually synced all my stuff and have never had an issue like this. To say I am sad to lose that video is an understatement.
    I googled "iPhone undelete" and "iPhone data recovery" and downloaded a trial for one of the likely candidates. It turned up a bunch of garbage, but not my video.
    Anyways... I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this type of scenario? Has anybody identified what could cause this to happen? I would like to avoid this in the future. (I will avoid this type of loss, because I know now what I could have done differently to be more careful. But it would be nice if I didn't have to get all neurotic about checking 60GB of photos/videos side by side each time I copy them to my computer...)
    I have seen other threads on the forum here regarding corrupted libraries and such, but I am not sure this is the same thing.
    One suspicion I have is that it might have to do with the iPhoto app being installed on the phone. I can't articulate why I think that is worth considering. But when I looked at my Video folder, I ended up with many duplicate videos, and all the duplicated videos' file names were 2 numbers apart. As if all the file names got shifted at some point. Very strange.
    Thanks for listening to my rant. If anybody has an idea, I am interested. If anybody else has lost precious memories due to this, we should talk. If it is a widespread problem, maybe we can all get together and pound down Apple's door?
    As an aside: Why am I unable to select Apple Support Community to post this question to?

    In my case number of weird things happen whenever I try to copy pictures/videos from my iPhone from direct USB...
    1. JPG files are wrongly named as MOV and vice versa.
    2. I copy only folders but in addition files with no extension are copied in the main folder, very strange.
    3. Whenever I open one of the folders, strange icons like this () start appearing which cannot be copied even.
    Unfortunately I used to delete a lot of files with wrong extensions in the past because I never new they could be fixed.
    Apple should answer this!
    Note: I am using Windows 8.1 and use a direct USB cable without iTunes to copy the media files directly from My Computer.
