Mail setting for attachments default on 'windows compatible'

I have difficulties sending pictures of iPhoto directly via email button to windows clients. The comment I get is that the files arrive with extension .bin and pictures cannot be opened. I do succeed by exporting as jpg to a folter and then to send via mail as attachment using the button 'make windows compatible'. I find this a long way to proceed.
Who can help me by:
A) adjucting my mac so that attachments in mail are default windows compatibel instead using 'that' button which I forget so often.
B) giving me another/better shortcut so that I can send 'windows compatible' photos via iPhoto's email button.
Your help is much appreciated. Regards from a mac user in Holland.

When you send these messages with attachments that fail, are you sending through, or via the Exchange Server?
Many problems associated with Exchange Server originate with improper Rich Text somewhere along the way. In one situation the exchange server alters the file format information, and attachment arrives unreadable.
If you could conduct a test, using Plain Text (plus attachment) only, and without a Signature, it would help us to home in. Even more useful, would be sending a test to me, so I could investigate further. My address can be found by clicking on my name to left of this post, and looking in the bio line of my Profile.

  • Exchange 2013 with Outlook 2013 - Not getting pop-up or mail tips for attachments exceeding max size

    Our environment is Exchange Server 2013 CU3 and Outlook 2013 in cached mode. We have a transport rule that sets the max attachment size to 20 mb.
    If someone sends an attachment larger than 20 mb they receive an NDR letting them know the message wasn't delivered because it exceeded the max attachment size. We would like for the user to be prevented from sending the message at all or to at least
    get a mail tip before they try to send the message. The Outlook pop-up message that says "The file you're attaching is bigger than the server allows. Try putting the file in a shared location ..." isn't being generated for us. Not sure if that's
    because we're running Exchange or not. If that pop-up isn't going to work it would be nice if the user could at least get a mail-tip warning them that the attachment exceeds the limit. But it doesn't look likes there's a mail-tip for attachment size, only
    for message size. And, I've found that the message size mail-tip only works if the limit is set on the user. It doesn't seem to work if the limit is set via a transport rule.
    Has anyone else gotten Outlook to present the pop-up or a mail-tip when exceeding attachment size? Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks but I performed all of those trouble shooting prior to posting to the forum. But, I have found the answer!
    After referring to this article;
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124345(v=exchg.150).aspx
    I removed the 10mb default limits from the organization config and chose to set the attachment and message size limits in our environment via transport
    rules instead. That is the only way you can actually set an attachment size limit.
    I had read this article several times searching for an answer;
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2813269#appliesto
    The key is here;
    "If you are using an Exchange Server account, the 20-MB attachment
    limit for Internet email accounts is not used by Outlook 2013. Instead, Outlook uses the limit that is configured on your Exchange server. To modify the setting that is used to control the size of a message that is sent through an
    Exchange Server account, follow these steps."
    The steps that follow are for Exchange 2010 but they show setting organization limits not server limits. And note that it
    says the size of a message, not the size of an attachment. Since mail-tips for message size are not displayed when the limit is set via the transport rules I thought it
    was possible that the same inconsistency might apply to the attachment pop-up warning. I set the organization limits and voila! The pop-up now displays when an attachment that exceeds the message size limit is added to a message.
    This is exactly what I wanted. Now users won't fill up their sent items trying to send large attachments that just bounce anyway.
    It would be wonderful if Microsoft would provide information about what features of Outlook are affected when you apply message size limits at the
    various levels.

  • Can I have automatic e-mail setting for ADDM and AWR reports??

    Can I have Automatic e-mail settings for all my AWR and ADDM reports so I don;t have to run the reports all the time but they can be sent over to my mailbox and I can review them, if at all I can do that then can I bound them to a particular time frame where I can recieve only those reports durin the peak usage of my database.
    thanks

    Hi Rohan,
    Can I have Automatic e-mail settings for all my AWR and ADDM reports so I don;t have to run the reports all the time but they can be sent over to my mailbox and I can review them,You bet! I do it for all of my databases:
    1 - Use a cron (or preferably dbms_scheduler) to schedule the awrrpt.sql execution, directing the report to a fixed file location (e.g. /tmp).
    2 - As step 2 from the scheduled task, direct the report as input to sendmail:

  • What is the best setting for compressing to a Window Media Player?

    I now have the latest Compressor, just now need to figure out which is the best setting to use for compressing to a Windows Media Player. Does anyone know which is the best method?

    I'd propose you buy a licence for Telestreams FLip4MAC (flipfactory) Quicktime components to enable ENCODING for HD and SD as you need. It works ok however none of my work requires specifics for windows player. I have a licence just the same.
    If you have Flip4mac already installed, you can use the system preferneces  panel to order a an ENCODER component licence. There may be others around as well.
    You can just use compressor.app and change the inspector video to use "quicktime components/windows media encoder" in the batch job.. its pretty easy.

  • Best iPad mail app for attachments

    I'll be picking up the new iPad Air in the next few days and am wondering what email app I should use for attachements. My work uses a Gmail hosted email service, and I'm a Gmail user myself, so ideally it would have multi-account support.
    In my work I use the usual mix of .doc, .xls and .pdf documents. From what I understand the default Mail app is not suitable for (multiple) attachments. I'm a big Dropbox user if that makes a difference.
    I hear good things abou the Mailbox app (by Dropbox) and the Gmail app by Google themselves.
    Any suggestions?

    I love the recently launched iPad app Cannonball. https://itunes.apple.com/app/cannonball-email/id701582906
    You can search for just attachments as well as sort email into various cataegories as you would with snail mail. So subscriptions, financial, travel etc all get sorted and allow you to peruse through as you need them.
    It got great reviews as well - http://mashable.com/2013/10/22/cannonball-app/

  • Opening links set for "in a new window"

    When I click on a link that is set to open in a new window, Safari will not open it. I can command-click, and the link will open in a new tab.
    I'm using Safari 3.0.3. I've tried turning off blocking of pop-up windows.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Estel-mm and welcome to our community
    Your requirement cannot be met with simple use of RoboHelp
    HTML. It will likely require hand crafting some special JavaScript
    function to make it work. And here's the rub. Assuming you get it
    to work, it may have an adverse effect in that if you configure the
    default topic to open this way and your end user just happens to
    land on that Default topic again, poof! Another new window.
    Just a thought... Rick

  • Mail set for manual checking but checks automatically

    I am getting very annoyed with Mail since 'upgrading' to Lion and iCloud back in February
    I have Mail General Preferences set to "Check for new messages manually", yet it checks my .Mac address automatically.
    I have all my email accounts unticked for including "when automatically checking for new mail", yet it checks  just my .Mac address automatically. This points to the problem being something to do with iCloud rather than with the new version of Mail that comes with Lion.
    Not so annoying when I have the sound switched off but very annoying when I have the speakers on and it interrupts what I'm listning to. Sometimes it even makes the noise when there doesn't appear to be any new email.
    Has anyone else had this problem? And if so, have you found a way to stop it?

    Same problem here after migrating from Snow Leopard to Lion & MobileMe to iCloud. I haven't found any answers online.

  • Can I somehow set Firefox as default so windows don't open in IE?

    I prefer to use Firefox - it is far easier to use and can do so MUCH more. Whenever I select a link in a document, on-line, whatever, my PC always opens new links with IE. Even the confirmation of my Firefox Help account opened in IE. I want to somehow force my PC to open ONLY in Firefox. Help!

    Please see this support article on [[How to make Firefox the default browser]].

  • Mac Mail - Hyperlinks for attachments?

    Hi Tmarshall,
    I'm not sure I really get your problem: you want to add a pdf file as an attachment, plus a hyperlink (to a site with your pictures) in your message but when you insert the hyperlink, the attachment gets deleted?

  • Mail Attachments unopenable in Windows or not there

    I have my mail set up to always send windows friendly attachments. This however, doesn't always seem to help. Some people complain they can't open it, some say there isn't one and a blackberry user also sayd there is nothing there!
    What can I do to unsure that people receive the attachment? Be it a word doc or PDF. Do I need to change some encoding so Windows users can read it?

    David,
    If you are composing in Rich Text Format, and especially if you use a Signature with RTF, there is a good chance there is a SPAM filter involved somewhere in the path. This is because RTF will be converted to HTML where two or more fonts are used (including font size even if same font), and the HTML can have two different impacts. First, to Outlook and Outlook Express users, attachments will often appear to be embedded, they have trouble opening them. Secondly, the HTML may trigger a SPAM filter the recipient has in place (sometimes without their intent), and that filter may remove the attachment.
    Try using Plain Text messages (including Plain Text Signature) with these people who have had problems getting your attachments.
