Mail and MORE EPS issues...

Hi. I am running OS 10.4.8 and have the same problem with EPS attachments as many of the rest of you. My problem is that, when I open mail, the e-mail that has the attached EPS is selected and it immediately crashes Mail. I can not select another e-mail or reduce the "view" below so I can by-pass it.
What else can I do to be able to open Mail without having that e-mail selected at the time of opening???

Stacie,
Hold down the Shift Key while clicking on the Mail Icon in the Dock. This will allow Mail to open without opening any mailbox, and then minize the Message Preview Pane before chosing one to open.

  • Mail and Address Book Issues in 10.4.5

    Hello:
    I recently updated to 10.4.5 and have some issues with mail and address book.
    1. MAIL: All the mail on my machine has been "reformatted" for lack of a better term. Each line in a paragraph is about 1.5" above the next. This is the same for all messages. This just appeared after I updated to 10.4.5. Suggestions? Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what was the solution?
    2. ADDRESS BOOK: All of my addresses just have the name. Apparently, everything else has disappeared (Phone, e-mail, notes, etc.) Ex: John Smith... That is all I have for all 346 records. Naturally, I have the data backed up on .mac, but before I re-sync (assuming that works) I want to resolve the issue to prevent it from happening again. I have tried renaming files in the user>library>application support>address book from AddressBook.data.previous to just AddressBook.data to no avail. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

    You may want to review recent threads about similar problems in this forum before re-syncing your data with .Mac. Yes, it might work, but not the way you expect...

  • Mail and Exchange many issues - Workarounds available?

    After reading several posts about the incompatibilities between Exchange and Mail, and in the meantime that Snow Leopard is released, wanted to ask if there is someone else that has the same symptoms described below and how you have resolved them.
    I'm using an Exchange server with Apple Mail Version 3.5 (930.3) and the only way to keep getting emails is by quitting the app and then reopening it.
    1- Mail keeps synchronizing "Sent Items - Exchange account" and it takes forever to do this
    2- Constantly have ghost emails (First Name, Last Name and the ghost will be Last Name, First Name) and only one of them will be readable while the other will be blank
    3- [Exchange acct] Communicating with... - [Sent items] Fetching.... keeps going and is it never ends
    4- Adding Messages takes forever to refresh
    5- INBOX - Exchange account Updating [Evaluating] and this never moves.

    WSY , I have the same problem , its for all my mac users .
    try clearing up your inbox , archiving and delete all your old emails .

  • Bulk mail, bulk mail, and more bulk mail

    I cannot understand this. I have five or six assorted mail accounts that all feed into my Apple Mail. The spam mostly gets filtered out -- by Yahoo or Google-- before I see it.  My husband has only one Yahoo account and one Mail account, which has the same preferences set as mine.  He gets more than four hundred "Bulk Mail" messages every day. The number of new messages and the number of bulk messages is usually the same.   He uses OS 10.6 on a Macbook which I used previously -- without this problem.
    Any suggestions as to what I/he should do? Can I just delete the Bulk folder? I have checked and recheched the Yahoo settings; the bulk stuff doesn't show there?
    TIA

    Yahoo has a blacklist of servers which send out spam.
    There are individuals that feel at least some on the blacklist are on it unfairly.
    Yahoo routes all of the e-mail from its blacklist to the Yahoo "Spam" folder (along with all of the other spam e-mail).
    There are e-mail clients that attempt to address the above issue by selecting the e-mail in Yahoo's "Spam" folder that is there because it is blacklisted and putting it in a different folder commonly named "Bulk Mail".
    These "Bulk Mail" folders are often baked into the e-mail client and may be difficult to modify.

  • Mail And Outlook 2003 issues

    Very odd one I can't pin down. There are a few people when receiving mail from my 10.5 machine in apple mail receive the email as an attachment / html link.
    I sent it to my machine no problems but to others it shows as this weird attachment / link. Any ideas how to solve this.
    Receivers use outlook 2003 generally and my PC version is 2003 so don't know what the option is to stop this. They all receive HTML etc.
    Any ideas >

    I have searched all over the net and I know it is probably an issue or setting with Outlook but though somebody may have seen this or at least know what is going on.
    The email is sent but is just a link / attachment for Outlook users in the email body - no text etc. They have to open it up. Asked them to check for HTML settings.
    Anyone got any pointers.

  • Mail and Wireless Router issue?

    Hi,
    I recently switched from a Linksys router which had no wireless capability to a Beklin N+ wireless router. When I received mail (Gmail) in Mail through my old Linksys, it would arrive with little to no delay. However, now when I receive email through the Belkin router, I get a substantial delay: a message could take 20 minutes to arrive in Apple Mail. For example, a message may be sent at 1 PM, and I'll receive it in my inbox in my web browser at 1 PM. However, Apple Mail won't retrieve the message for another 15-20 minutes. (Mail checks for messages every 5 minutes.) Changing the setting in the "Check for new mail" button from 5 minutes to every minute doesn't seem to help.
    How can I fix this so that I can receive my email with less delay? Are there settings that I can change on the Network control panel l of my Mac?
    I hope you can help. Thanks.
    David

    After further investigation, I think I may have found the issue: Apple Mail separates the general Inbox for "Mailboxes" and my Gmail inbox - they aren't reconciled.

  • Photoshop and AI / EPS issues.

    I have a logo in Photoshop thats about 5000x200px.. I go to ("File -> Export -> Render to Illustrator") .. I select "Document Bond" on the dialog that pops up and it saves to my desktop.
    Usually it's about 600kbs, but when I drag it over to photoshop file to see if it works... Nothing is there? it comes in like a sharp object with the square and x so I can resize but nothing is visible? it's just white..
    Now, can I fix this so my file is an AI file and its transparent and the document actually shows up when I open it in photoshop or illustrator? thanks!
    also, if I do, .EPS some things don't get added to the document but somethings are there and it's never transparent?
    Any help would be great thank you!
    thanks!

    OK, Larry. I can recreate the issue. Would have been quicker with a sample file <g>.
    In ID when using place, I do not get the problem. It only occurs here if I use copy and paste--something I cannot recall ever using in ID except for helping people.
    The reason I asked about the PDF or a printout is I thought the issue was a stictching issue. And it is. In the PDF, the lines show but if you zoom in you will notice the lines never get wider. As well, whether printing from ID or from a PDF, the lines are not there.
    The stitching lines are a result of the drop shadow on the letters. This causes a portion of the image to be a bitmap.
    The top is the placed AI file in ID. Bottom is the copy & paste.
    Take care, Mike

  • Mac Mail and Gmail Filing Issue.

    Hi all,
    My Mail is set up with Gmail. When I'm trying to file my emails using Mail, the email goes into the right 'label', but then it comes back into my inbox for a couple of seconds, then it disappears back into the label.
    I guess it's not the end of the world, but I tend to file emails quickly as I go. And what happens is, I think the email is filed, and then click the next one, I start to reply and then I realise I'm replying to the wrong email because the one I filed jumped back to the top of the inbox.
    So I've got this routine now where every time I file a mail, I have to sit and watch it jump into the label, jump back to my inbox, jump back to the label, and then I can continue working.
    Over the course of a day, it gets frustrating.
    Has anyone else experienced this / anyone know what could be causing it?
    Thanks, Laura
    NB: Specs - Macbook Pro, Maverick OSX 10.9.2 - 4bg ram, 2.66 ghz intel core duo // Mail version 7.2
    email settings are:
    account type: Google IMAP
    incoming mail server: imap.gmail.com
    Outgoing mail server: Gmail

    Acutally, clicking on some of the related issues on here (they only became visible after posting my question), I found this in one of the posts:
    http://tidbits.com/article/14219
    This seems to answer the question. In other words, it doesn't work because Mavericks.
    Doesn't seem to be a fix for this, whether you choose 'all mail' or not, you're going to have one set of problems or another. So I am guessing the answer is to be patient and hope that they fix this in the next OSX update/version.

  • Mail and Key board issues with Mavericks 9.2

    I am using a Mac Pro and have just uploaded Mavericks 9.2 upgrade.
    I am now experiencing erratic response to key board commands, while typing and Mac Mail is sometimes unresponsive. My epson photo stylus 1400 printer driver also bacame unresponsive. This issue was resolved by uninstalling the driver, re-installing the original driver >reloading the upgrades from Epson via software update>adding the newly installed printer to the preferences. Presently the printer is working just fine, but the Mac Mail menu bar is blinking uncontrollabley and is unresponsive until I quit it and reboot the program.  Anyon else having these issues?

  • Mail and Safari viewing issues

    Hi,
    Since updating to 10.5.8 I'm having 2 frustrating issues.
    I can't view some pages in Safari e.g. go to google - type in search - can't see any text results.
    Also mail I can't view some messages, mainly bulk type messages from companies for their enews (is that HTML?), also some plain text mail from friends don't display the message either. Can see the details of the subject and who its from just not the body of the message.
    Please help!

    When you purchase DiskWarrior they will send you the disk and all the instructions. It's not hard to do. You will be booting from the DiskWarrior disk, so you don't have to worry about getting your Mac running before you receive DW.
    Just my 2 cents... DW has saved my PBookG4 and my iBookG4 both without having to take them in for service.

  • HP ENVY 6t has many issues with USB headphone, Bluetooth and more serious issue

    HP ENVY 6t doesn't work with USB headphone, unfortunately. could u let me know how to fix it?
    Bluetooth mouse has been working for a day, it suddenly stopped working. Having checked the PC bluetooth connection, which said "Working properly".   Could you let me know how to re-connect, or re-work?
    "Not complete shut-down" blue screen issue right after receiving the HP PC when I closed display to be in sleep mode.
    I see the "Safe mode" "...." or "Normal mode" screen always.
    The HP PC is not stable UNFORTUNATELY.
    Even if just brand new HP PC, there seems to be many issues.

    I would recommend using this document for your mouse: http://goo.gl/XDRRy
    And using this document to troubleshoot your headphones issue: http://goo.gl/hV9fu
    Most of the time with USB headphones, you have to download the driver from the manufacturer before they will work properly.

  • Slow Mail and more

    Hi
    In the last two days it takes about 1 min to send an email from mail via our server. Prior it was almost instant. If I go to the xserve and open server admin, it takes about 2 min to show the information. Everything else on the server runs at normal speed (8 core xeon). If I open workgroup manager, it also takes about 2 min before it shows the information. Everything works, it is just super slow
    Any suggestions?
    Cheers
    Tony

    Have you tried things like
    1) Reboot and see if the condition continues.
    2) Start up Activity Monitor and see what is performance stats are, look for runaway processes, etc
    3) Start up Top in a terminal window - hit o to sort and type cpu for the response.

  • Iphone 3g sounds text,lock,sending mail and more

    My iphone 3g sounds keep disappearing I thought I could deal with it but I cant it's very frustrating. What do you think I should do.
    Message was edited by: jamin13

    im a bit of a loudmouth about the text sounds issue, so far i have found that resets restores etc dont work, it comes back anyways and also apps dont cause it. I wiped out all apps on my phone and still lost sounds, also people reported never installing any apps and still losing sounds.
    I think its just 2.0 being the piece of rushed crap that it is.
    but i digress GO APPLE YEEAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

  • Mail and Gmail- archiving issues

    Mail doesn't seem to understand the 'archiving' feature of my Gmail account. I'm trying to set up Mail for the first time and my inbox is being flooded with all of my archived emails, and my sent mail. I don't know how to get it to reflect my Gmail account, or whether that's at all possible with Mail.. Is there a way?

    Yes.  I'm having a whole series of problems with Mail.app and GMail.  The problems are pretty well documented (links below), but I haven't seen any good fixes or heard any indication that Apple is taking them seriously.

    In addition to archived emails returning to the inbox, I'm seeing significant delays in new mail appearing in my inbox:  sometimes as long as hours after the mail appears on my iPhone and in the GMail web console.
