Mail does not save attachment in rtfd file

When I save a message with an attachment into rich text file, the attachment is not saved.
I have an email with an attached word file: I choose File>Save As..., I check the box "Include Attachments", I choose the Format as Rich Text and navigate to the folder I want. The resulting file has the extension rtfd, but the word attachment is not inside it. Any clues?
Thanks

Same issue here. After searching Apple support found this:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=307193
Basically the "solution" is to manually save the attachments separately.

  • Os x lion mail does not save icloud sent email with attachment

    os x lion mail does not save icloud sent email with attachment... are there people who experience the same problem? i was with Apple Support via chat and he could not resolve the problem. I was given a phone number to call, i assume it's tech support for OS X or Mail but I did not have time to be on the phone for a long time... thank you

    I finally fixed it! I verified and repaired disk permissions on my Mac... how come the Apple Tech Guy didn't know that???!!!! Shocking

  • Mail does not print attachment name & prints small

    When printing an email, if it has an attachment, it does not print the attachment name.  It prints the icon of the attachment (excel, word, psd, etc.) but it doesn't print the name of the file under it.  This started happening since upgrading to Mavericks.
    Also, emails are printing much smaller.  Is there a way to enlarge the font when printing?

    The same here and quite a lot of other Mail bugs - and all since the new MacPro and Mavericks, no such problems with Mavericks on the MacBookPro 2011 though
    Sometimes the file names are printed, sometimes not and there is no way to find out why - it happens on and off with own mails to be sent and mails received.
    Workaround for own mails is put each file underneath the other with some distance from the last word. Workaround in case of customer mails received go to reply, edit signature on top, reduce to one page and hope .... sometimes it works.
    Also: on and off, Preview will show and printer will print only header on the first page, then body text on the second - only workaround to date (and believe me, I've tried everything) is use Reply, eliminate your own signature and reduce the printed area to less than a page
    Also: long mails with back-and-forth messages may print a line half on one page and lower half on second one .... no workaround here.
    Seems Mail is going to A4 US instead of A4 small (Europe), though this is not what the printer and the system or Word etc. are set to.
    And a sneaking suspicion, that it works ok with people sending me mails from a Mac, but not from a Windows box ... can't bother all my customers though and ask
    So please Apple - lots of people have the same problems - will you finally do something about it ... and yes I used the Feedback function

  • Camera RAW does not save changes to original file

    I am making some basic edits to some photos in Bridge CS5 camera raw.  For some of them I want to save over the original file with the new changes.  To do this, I have been pushing "done", which shows the changes to the original file in the bridge preview... BUT, when I go to view them in the original file folder (housed on the desktop), the changes have not been made to the original file.  Changes are only shown in Bridge.
    I have rebooted Bridge and the computer. 
    What's going on?

    That's the way Bridge works. The original file is untouched. All your changes are saved in a separate .xmp file.
    To open a copy of the image with the changes applied, click the Open Image button in Camera Raw.

  • Remove Attachments from Leopard Mail does not remove attachment from .emix

    Every day I back up my mail (and other items) to an external hard drive using an Automator workflow, in order that I can synchronize mail on my work and home Macs. In order to make this process as quick as possible, I routinely remove attachments from all mail messages once I have saved them to where they need to go on my hard drive.
    I have noticed that since upgrading to Leopard (archive and install), the size of the mail folder which I back up (user>library>mail) is getting significantly bigger every day, despite removing all attachments. Upon investigation it seems that although the attachment has been removed from the mail message, the attachment is still in it's associated .emix file (e.g. user>library>mail>POP???mailaccountfolder>INBOX.mbox>messages>?????.emix - if this email contained a 5mb attachment which was removed using mail>message>remove attachments, the .emix file will still be 5mb).
    Anyone else experiencing this problem? know a workaround? It didn't happen with mail in 10.4!

    I am not sure when I will get the chance to test this -- maybe this afternoon. But I had not understood that what you called original continued to have the attachments. If so, this strongly suggests to me that it indeed may be the way Gmail maintains the All Mail folder that is causing this. See:
    http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6581
    If there is a setting to help this, it will have to be one that is selected in the Settings webpage of Gmail, I suspect.

  • Mail does not save changes to Preferences Accounts upon quitting

    When I upgraded to Mavericks, I encountered two problems with Mail. They may actually be one problem, but I can't tell.
    The first, broader, and more concerning problem is that when I make a change to any account in Preferences > Accounts and then I quit and relaunch Mail, the change that I made is  not preserved.
    The second and narrower problem is that I have two iCloud accounts that I cannot delete even though I have deselected Mail from my iCloud account in iCloud preferences. When I attempt to delete these accounts, I get this error message:
    The account could not be removed
    Account removal failed with error: “The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to find an account for the UID given.”.
    You can try deleting the account from the “Internet Accounts“ preference pane in System Preferences.
    There is more detail to this second problem that can be found at this discussion.

    Same problem … since upgrading to 10.9.4 … every time I restart Mail all the changes to Preferences are ignored and I have to redo.
    Checked ~/Library/Mail/V2 folder and it showed I had read/write access … just to make sure I "changed all enclosed files" to read/write for my userid.
    No worked ...
    Any other suggestions??
    Very frustrating!!

  • Mail on Lion does not save messages that fail to send

    When I am not connected to the web if I am composing a message and hit send button Mail does not save the message, and just tells me that It could not be sent and discards it. This is really annoying. I am using 10.7.4. Anybody else experiencing it? Any way around it?
    For example, if I am on a plane, and I want to compose my messages to be sent later, this will not do it.. I never had this issue on Snow Leopard.
    Thanks

    Thanks. This is helpful.. However, do you agree that this is bug? Because, if I accidentally hit "send" in the full screen view, it just discards everything I wrote, it seems like. This was not the case in Snow Leopard. It would just save it in Outbox. When it is not in full screen mode, it still seems to put in in Outbox. I think my solution is to avoid this full screen view. It sounded a good idea, but changing bevavior just becuase I am in full screen, I cannot get it.

  • After importing received and set messages from Opera Mail, Thunderbird works fine but does not save sent messages to Sent folder, even though messages are sent

    I successfully imported messages from Opera Mail. Initially the Sent mailbox was not showing in Thunderbird. A quick removal and fresh installation solved that, but Thunderbird does not save the sent messages to the Sent box, where the imported Opera Mail messages are stored. Even though messages are not saved, they are sent correctly. The image attached shows the error message.

    Probably a name-confuse If you store sent on mailserver it has to have the right name. (subscribe)
    You could set up under Account settings / copies and folders (maps) Sent pointing to the right local folder.

  • Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working

    Suddenly my Mail is not saving attachment and save as is not working. I tried to save an email as I use to do but it is not completing the task. I should I do?
    Thanks for any help,
    Mario Lordeiro

    Mario,
    Was there also NO choice to View As Icon, in the contextual menu? If not, these items/images may be embedded in HTML, rather than true attachments. Other choices for normal attachments would include Open Attachment, Open With, Save to Downloads Folder -- are any of those present in the contextual menu?
    With such a message open, click on View in the menubar, place the cursor on Message in the pull-down menu, and choose Raw Source. Is there any HTML code present? Is there a header immediately before any code representing what you believe is an attached file?
    If need be, I can send you an email message with a known form of attachment.

  • Recording does not save the file

    We are facing a serious problem with Captivate 2. After
    recording about 40 -50 slides it does not save the file.
    The system hangs for several minutes and there’s no
    response.To analyze this problem we have tried out User Forums and
    FAQs.In the User Forum too similar problems are reported. For
    example, visit:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=67&catid=464&threadid =1261116&enterthread=y
    In fact, in our team Captivate is loaded on a standalone
    hi-end system with ample space and memory.
    We have also tried workarounds to address this issue. For
    example, we deleted all temp files from library and we also saved
    it on a short path like c:/project.
    Nothing works!!!

    Hi Madduser and welcome to our community
    When you say
    To analyze this problem we have tried out User Forums and
    FAQs are we to assume you simply searched them and read the
    threads? I'm assuming this because this is your first post here.
    You will note that the thread you linked to mentioned the
    person was attempting to save on a network. I do see you have tried
    using the shortened local path to no avail, so I'm guessing the
    network is ruled out here.
    As usual, I've got more questions than answers, but hopefully
    as we work through them something will come to light.
    * Have you EVER been able to create and save things using
    Captivate? Or did you just install it and it's never worked for
    you?
    * Have you tried what is outlined in the following Technical
    Note?

  • Image Capture does not save a scanned file

    Image Capture using an HP Photosmart C3180 to scan a document does so but does not save the file to the Desktop.
    A pop-up windows displays Scan Results but still not file
    O/S Lion, Image Capture Version 6.1 (440).
    Used to work, what is the deal?

    As for the scanner - so is this new one wireless? When I hooked up my Epson All-in-One, I had to install it via USB first before I could install the wireless (per their instructions).  With Snow Leopard, I simply installed the driver and it covered and recognized both the print and scan function - not so in Lion; I had to go through hoops with the scanner part and it finally showed up as a separate unit. I thought that is silly, but - as long as it works.....  I'm trying to think of possibilities since I'm about out of ideas, so you might want to consider that (if it applies). The other troubleshooting suggestions usually include redoing the "add" function after a reboot.
    As for Image Capture, I am out of ideas. FWIW, I never use it - in my workflow, there is no need for it. Not sure if this would have an impact, but make sure that you choose Image Capture in the CDs&DVDs Preference Pane (mine is set to ignore or ask purposely):
    If that does not work, I'd suggest reinstalling the OS over the top of what you have.

  • I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?

    I am trying to save a large file on Illustrator CS6 and it does not save and instead says "Unknown Error Occurred." What do I do?
    The file has 4 artboards with webpage designs. I tried to take two of the artboards, create a separate doc with those two, and save, but the result was the same.
    However, I am able to save simpler, smaller files.
    I need to not lose these files and I am afraid to quit and restart and lose my unfinished work.
    Any advice?

    What happens if you choose this option?
