Mail attachement as Blue Lego Brick With Questionmark

Hi,
i installed Parallels Desktop and since then my mail attachements only show as a "Blue Lego Brick With a Questionmark" Before that i could see the files (ie pdf or jpgs) directly below ma written text. This happens in the "sent" and "recieved" mails.
Any help?
TIA

I have a similar problem. But I have no installed parallels. I recently had an issue with mail not opening at all this was due to an error with the new safari and the growl application. I was able to get this fixed, but now I have the same blue lego bricks showing up in my emails, for attachments and in some other emails too that display images. I can download attachments just fine. But these blocks are annoying and messing up other email images.

  • Blue lego question marks in Apple Mail

    After upgrading to SL, all attachment icons in Mail show up as blue lego bricks with question marks. The files can be saved and opened from the downloads folder -- quicklook also works -- so the attachments are in tact -- just no icons. It is interesting that this affects only one of the users on this machine -- mail for the other user functions normally.

    Problem solved. Will document here for anyone else who runs into this issue:
    So I recently visited a website with a java applet and got the error "Java unavailable or not installed" along with a *blue lego brick with a question mark*. But I was not getting this message for other users on the same machine. So I checked the Java prefs and noticed that only Java SE 6 32-bit was checked (not sure how this could be, but I have mucked around with my Java prefs in the past...). Clicked "Restore Defaults" which checked off both 64 and 32 bit versions and restarted my browser. This solved the "Java Unavailable" problem *and also solved the mail attachment problem reported above.* So I guess somewhere under the hood in Mail, there is a Java dependancy.

  • Mail attachement larger then 1MB

    Hi,
    when I receive a zip file in attachment bigger than 1MB, Mail does not associate the file to iUnarchive.
    For small files I have no problems
    someone had the same problem?
    thank you

  • 11.0.03  unable to send completed adobe questionnaire as mail attachment. What now?

    Unable ot send completed PDF questionaire as mail attachment. What now?

    With all the wealth of data you provide...
    My gues is that the file was not properly enabled to be answered by mail. Unless you can use Acrobat for this, one of your best bets is to contsct the author of the file and ask for a properly enabled copy.

    Help I would like to send an e-mail to a group of people,  I have the group created, but when I drag it to bcc or to- it will not attach. can anymon help me with this?

    In a new email message window start to type the name of the Group you have in Contacts/Address Book in the 'To' field - it should self-complete when it recognises the name.
    (Note: this only works with 'normal' Groups and not Smart 'Groups').

  • Mail attachment with UDF in SAP PI 7.1

    Hello,
    I need to reproduce this solution in PI 7.1
    /people/samuel.chandrasekaran2/blog/2008/10/06/xi-mail-adapter-dynamically-building-attachment-and-message-body-content-using-a-simple-udf
    It is about  adding lines of a message as an attachment to a mail.
    The UDF works for all elements except the lines for the attachment itself.
    In order to build the content of the attachment (for this particular requirement) they are using a global variable declared and initialized in the global sections.
    But the button for the Java Section to use an imported archive is no longer available in PI.....
    So how to solve that issue?
    I tried to use a graphical variable instead of a global variable but I have no idea how to add the n lines
    from the source message as one import object into the UDF via that graphical variable.
    Your ideas are very appreciated!
    Best Regards
    Dirk

    Hi,
    yes, it is a little bit different. This is the issue.....  
    But I am not sure if your links will help:
    1) /people/william.li/blog/2008/02/13/sap-pi-71-mapping-enhancements-series-using-graphical-variable
    is about a different solution. I do not need to count the number of lines of the source message.
    And the second variable is about concat line by line from unbound node to unbound node.
    My issue is:
    Souce:
    Message line (0...unbound) ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
    .    ResultLine   (1..1)
    Mapping:
    =>   ResultLine1
           ResultLine2
           ResultLine........          => into UDF to an element  (1..1) in one mapping operation.
    So that all "ResultLine"s are included.
    The result is explained in the given link for Mail attachment with UDF.
    So I am not sure how to use this thread for my issue.
    In the comments of that blog Christoph Gerber writes that the new variable feature can only handle single values.
    So it is not suitable for my purposes as I have a list of values here that needs to be moved into the target message field.
    2) http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Java/UsingEditJavaSectioninMessageMapping
    shows where to find the button "Java section" which is not available here in 7.1
    3) /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/10/01/xi-new-features-in-sp14
    too is about the nice little button for Java Section that is no longer existing on PI 7.1 screen for mappings.  
    So my issue is: How to replace the Java section function with global variables in PI 7.1?
    Best regards
    Dirk

  • Mail Attachment with attachment name = mail subject name

    Hi,
    I am using the mail adapter and today I am using hard codes attachment names using the MessageTransformBean. I have read the blog /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/02/23/xi-dynamic-name-in-the-mail-attachment--pseudo-variable-substitution about dynamic filenames but how do I get the eMail subject as a viriable to create the attachment?
    Thanks
    Juergen

    Juergen my weblog was the simplest suggestion to your issue - you can put the mail subject anywhere in
    message get it (and remove) in the adapter module
    you can also try to get the
    Adapter-Specific Message Attributes from the adapter module 
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/09b16006526e72e10000000a422035/content.htm
    but I'm not sure it the second solution works with adapter modules - but you can do an easy check

    Title:
    Mac Mail att htm issue in outlook
    Question:
    I'm using mac original mail software. I did set my HTML style template. The software is best ever.
    And works good when I send email to outlook users on PC. However if I attach PDF for example, it does go through and outlook users get it, however when they open message all they see.
    - attached PDF
    - and att00001.htm file which has inside email text
    Not everybody gets idea to open it and thy think it is empty email. The same email will be sent to apple user everything looks properly. Why email text is converting into the htm file? It happens only if i attach something to my message, if I don't then email text is not being converted to htm attachment.
    I think there are a lot of user that know this issue, did anybody find a solution yet?
    Thank you
    jhyiesla:
    I don't think there is anything you can really do about it.
    I think that it's how the receivers program is going to interpret it.
    For example, I sent an email to my Outlook account from my Mac with just an attachment; no text. I looked at the email in Outlook 2000 and I see the attachment as an item in the body text section of the email. When I look at that same email in Outlook 2003 the attachment shows in the attachment area under the subject line and the body text area is blank.
    Then I sent another one with an attachment and some text in the body of the email. In Outlook 2000 I see the text in the text area and the attachment as well as a attxxx file in an area at the bottom of the email. The att file was empty. In Outlook 2003 that same email as the attachment and the empty att file in the attachment area at the top and under the subject line and in the body text area of the email is the text that I typed.
    Although Mac Mail uses standard protocols, which is why you can send an email to a Windows PC, it just does some different things. In the WIndows world Outlook and Outlook Express also handle some things differently.
    Goldblum:
    Thank you for your reply
    This issue makes mail.app useless, do you have any recommendations?
    Other client which are as good as the mail.app or would be nice to know what is forcing to convert body text to attachment? I could reduce beautiness of my email template by taking out header (jpg) or not using rich text. What exactly is forcing outlook to convert body to attxxxxx.htm file?
    jhyiesla:
    I truly don't know the answer to that question. Sometimes similar things happen coming the other way. I'll get emails in to my Mac Mail that have jpg files and I'll see the actual pictures in the body of the email.
    I happen to also have Office 2008 for the Mac installed and when I sent my self a message and looked at it in Outlook 2000 and XP, the email looked "normal" in all instances. The attachment was marked as an attachment, text was where it should be and no att file.
    There are other email clients that would probably work on the Mac like Thunderbird... but I'm guessing that you'd have a similar thing as happens with mac mail. Still it might be worth the download to test it out.
    Goldblum:
    I used entourage and same HTML template for email and have no problems. It is just so that entourage is as any other MS product "broken" out of the box but did good job and same message is not being converted to HTML attachment when it goes to outlook on PC. I will continue researching internet because it has to be solved. I can't send a message to client without comment to attached invoice. This is so not professional. I will play more with settings of mail.app to see what else can be done to avoid conversion.
    jhyiesla:
    Entourage probably works well with Outlook because they're both MS products and MS is going to have somewhat similar looks to all their Office products... although there is quite a bit of difference between Entourage and Outlook.
    Here's a link that may help you on your search:
    http://email.about.com/od/macemailclients/tp/free.htm

    As mentioned, Outlook is not email standards compliant. It probably never will be based on Microsoft's history. However, I think there are various issues involved in the problems people have. I often send emails from home to my Outlook account at work. I have never experienced any of the problems that I've seen posted anywhere regarding Mail and Outlook.
    My conclusion is that there are issues with certain Exchange Server configurations and/or issues with your own ISP mail server causing the issues.
    I do have my system set up to Always send windows friendly attachments (from what I've read, this really is 'send Outlook friendly attachments'), and always put attachments at the end. Prior to the 'always put attachments at the end,' I wasn't having any issues, either. However, I read that that setting helped with other email clients, so I use it.
    The obvious question is, "well, how is your exchange server configured." I would love to provide the answer to that question; however, I work for a DoD organization, so actually tracking down the person that knows the answer to that question will take somewhere between five years and never. With my 20+ years experience with the DoD, I'm leaning towards the never end of the spectrum. The other half of the equation is, "I'm using cox as my ISP."

  • Mail adapter issue with mail attachment

    Hi all,
    I have a scenario mail to file and i have a problem.
    Is it possible, in a sender adapter mail to use the option keep attachment and mail package at the same time ?
    So,is it possible to use the module payloadswapbean and XMLanonymizer in a sender adapter mail in order to suppress a namespace from the attachment in it ?
    Is the option mail package useful if i am using payloadswapbean module ?
    from what i see, It seems that the XMLanonymizer doesn't work for sender mail adapter with attachment. I've tested the configuration on a sender adapter file and works fine.
    Anyone already tested it ?
    Thanks,
    Jean-Philippe
    Edited by: Jean-Philippe PAIN on Feb 9, 2010 5:29 PM

    Hi Stefen,
    Thanks for the answers.
    The question is, whether the payloadswapbean is useful at all in a sender mail scenario.
    I don't understand this one ! Isn't mandatory in sender adapter mail scenario if you want to read your mail attachment ?
    Yes. If you configure the payloadswapbean correct, the XMLanonymizer works on the attachment.
    It is not easy to set the payloadswapbean in a correct way. IPost your parameters here, when it does not work for you.
    Ok. Maybe my configuration is wrong, please tell.
    Processing sequence :
    localejbs/AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean => 0
    localejbs/AF_Modules/XMLAnonymizerBean => 1
    sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean =>mail
    module configuration :
    swap.keyName =>Content-Disposition
    swap.keyName => Content-Description
    swap.keyValue=>MailAttachment-1
    swap.keyValue=>attachment;filename="MailAttachment-1.xml"
    anonymizer.acceptNamespaces =>http://namespace ''
    anonymizer.quote => ''
    I am on PI 7.1 version and when i am looking in the monitoring(sxmb_moni), it doesn't seems working.

  • Sending XI-Content as Mail Attachement with specific Filename

    Hi,
    I want to send the Message-Content as a mail attachment with a specific Filename (e.g. 2005-08-31.csv). The content is a CSV File, not a XML
    In the scenario an IDOC is sent to the XI mapped in a CSV-File (via Java-Mapping) and should be send as a Mail Attachment.
    Is this possible and how?
    Thank you for your help
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas,
    You can influence the filename with the ModuleTransformBean. You need at least SP9 for this feature.
    In the Mail Receiver Channel got to tab "Module"
    As first module (before the mail module) enter:
    localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean as Local Enterprise Bean with any key
    For this module key you can use in the module configuration following entries:
    Transform.ContentDisposition inline|attachment;filename=<filename>
    Transform.ContentDescription <Filename>
    Transform.ContentType <MimeType>/<SubType>;name="<filename>"
    If you want to send an attachment, use:
    Transform.ContentDisposition attachment;filename="MyFile.csv"
    Transform.ContentDescription MyFile
    Transform.ContentType text/plain;name="MyFile.csv"
    If you use the Mail Package, you can set the file name that way:
    <ns:Mail xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
      <Subject>Hello</Subject>
      <From>[email protected]</From>
      <To>[email protected]</To>
      <Content_Type>text/plain;name="MyFile.csv"</Content_Type>
      <Content>Here comes the CSV Data</Content>
    </ns:Mail>
    Hope that helps,
    Stefan

  • Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically?   I've tried PDF and Word, but worked only in Mail.  Lost formatting when just copied and pasted in email.

    Is there a format for a file that I can use for attaching a one page document with photos embedded that will open in everyone's email automatically?   I've tried PDF and Word, but PDF worked only in Mail.  Word worked in nothing.  I also tried copying and pasting the document but lost all formatting when just copied and pasted in email.  Is there a way to do this?

    Are you sure PDF won't work? It should as what you're trying to do is pretty much what it is designed for (PDF - Portable Document Format). On a Mac anywone who receives the file should be able to see it in all its page layout glory by using the app Preview or Adobe Reader. Same on a PC, the file should be viewable as a PDF file using Adobe Reader and probably some other viewer (don't use PCs so not sure what other apps).
    What application are you creating the file in and are you sure you're exporting it correctly in PDF format, fonts and images embedded?

  • Can you create a pdf e-mail attachment with working hyperlinks?

    I'm trying to figure out how to generate an e-mail with working hyperlinks where the recipient doesn't have to open the pdf for the links to work...in other words, when they open the e-mail and view the pdf as it is displayed, the links are visible and the viewer can click on them and go to a URL. I see this all the time, and can't figure out how to do it with a pdf (I've added the links with the link took in pdf and they display within the application window, but disappear when the file is an e-mail attachment) or with html. I've attached the pdf that I'm trying to make interactive within an e-mail message. Any help that can be provided is much appreciated!

    Michael your answer is colored by the fact you use an ASCII (Text only) News Reader.
    The answer is more along these lines:
    PDF's can be created with working hyperlinks.
    They can be automatically be brought over from programs such as MS Word, Open Office, and such  provided your on a PC Platform
    they can actually be viewed and clickable from Acrobat or Reader PC Versions, if created from a PC Version.
    they are not viewable or clickable if created from Mac version of Office.
    They are viewable and clickable from a PC if created from Mac version of Office (Word/Excel)
    The Mac can can not do so automatically you must do them Manually with in Acrobat.
    in Past it has been a Pain to do so though may be different in version 9
    If you use a browser Plugin such as Schubert's PDF Browser Plugin that works on Safari, fireFox, Camino, SeaMonkey Opera, OmniPage, iCab. Links you create in Mac version of Acrobat are viewable and clickable.
    Finally MS and Adobe have been having this on going problem since the day's PDF's first hit the market. (Version 1.) and MS  decided to support them. The hooks are there for both PC and Mac versions of Word. and either are capable of being created and acted upon on whether created by the Mac version of Office, or the PC version of Office, but only on a windows PC. Its clearly a problem of Acrobat/Reader on the Mac. Its either a problem Adobe won't own up to, or they can't solve or, this is one item they can't be bothered with to put in the Mac Versions.
    Some of this information is based on my participation in the msnews. nntp newsgroups for Office Mac. The experts there for the most part (MVP's) use both Mac and PC's and have investogated the problem themselves and been give information from the MacBU (Mac Business Unit) at MicroSoft. The basic internal code of Office 2003/2004 is the same. The UI is different and key cobinations are different. And same for 2007/2008 except office 2008 don't support VBA and Macros, and neither 2004 nor 2008 have MasterPages, And thankfully according the the MVP's Thankfully the Robbonis not supported on 2008.

    Many mail servers cap their message sending or receiving at 4MB.  If you are sending your own work that you want distributed by someone else, check with your internet provider if they can temporarily raise that restriction and the recipient's mail server can temporarily raise those restrictions.   Better would be for both of you to be able to access a webhosting site to share the material and use some FTP programs to send the file to each other.    If it is an MPEG-3 of a commercial CD's music, we can't help you as such distribution is illegal.

  • Sending a document as an mail attachment with approve and reject button

    now my question is, how can i get this document as an mail attachment with approve and reject option.

    Hello,
    You need to hide them on form load for user. Add one more hidden control in form and keep control value blank initially. Now add rule on button submit to set the control value to some other so you can hide/show the button.
    Now add rule on approve and reject buttons that, if field1 is blank then hide this control.
