Mail/Word weird clipboard thing

I have a script that extracts information from various fields in selected messages within Mail concatenates it into a single string, formats it and places it on the clipboard.
When run the script works fine if I paste the result into TextEdit. However if I paste it into MS Word then all the carriage returns (whether inserted by the script or copied from the body of the message) are not pasted.
Anyone have any ideas why?
This is a modified verison of a script I used to have for use with QuickMail Pro and it used to work fine with any text editor so I am a bit confused.

Perhaps Word uses CR/LF as it's line ending so instead of returns in your preparation script you should be using something like:
set CRLF to (ASCII character 13) & (ASCII character 10)
then insert CRLF where you were putting returns.
Note: I haven't tried this - I don't know what a typical line looks like on your clipboard.

  • Web-Pages can NOT print, although others-printing, i.e., e-mails, words are ALL OK

    H
    HP PC with Windows 7 that I just purchased recently.
    Two Printers:  Officejet F4480 and Photosmart C6380 All-in-one series do NOT print any of web-pages, although I can print any others sites, i.e., e-mails, word and all other sites.
    I installed HP Smart Web-printing, however I love to print in normal printing method, ... File > Print.
    Any help into this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Thnakyou for your reply - there's definitley no way the uni will change their standard format, and it's really not their fault anyway. I wanted to re-load Adobe 7 but can't find it anywhere on the Adobe website, and do not want to risk loading it from elsewhere!

    What is your current GarageBand version?
    Your profile signature says "OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)", but the newest GarageBand, version 10.0.2, requires Mavericks.  Are you planning on upgrading from Mt. Lion to Mavericks?
    The newest GarageBand 10.0.2 is very different from the earlier GarageBand '11, version 6.0.5.
    Some features, like podcasts, are missing. The GUI layout is more like Logic than GarageBand, the effects can no longer be combined freely, but you have to use the predefined patches. But this version adds nice new features like Drummers or Arpeggiators. and not all of your audio units may be compatible.
    If you upgrade to GarageBand 10.0, the new version can open your older projects, no problem. But once opened in GB 10.0, they will no longer work in GB '11. 
    The installer will not overwrite GB '11, but move it to a subfolder in Applications, and you can use both versions cuncurrently. They do not interfere and you can use GB '11 as before.

    In the email you want to print, on the top right there is an arrow. Click that and an option should appear that says print. That should work. Have you already tried that?

  • HT201250 My time machine back up does not appear to back up documents and e mails (the most important things for me). How do I get this done?

    My time machine back up does not appear to back up documents and e mails (the most important things for me). How do I get this done?

    How do you know it's not backing up those things? To check documents, go in the Finder to your documents folder, then go to the Time Machine icon in your menubar and click Enter Time Machine. Scroll back through time and see if previous versions of the documents exist in the backups.
    For Mail, same thing. Open the Mail app, go into Time Machine in the same way, and scroll back. Your inbox should change to reflect how it looked when it was backed up.

  • Mail behaving weirdly

    Mail has started behaving a bit weirdly since yesterday. Graphics are not shown any more. When I try and check things on Preferences Mail stops responding and I have to force quit. Everything was working up to yesterday. I haven't updated anything. Mail is version 2.1.3
    Any ideas? Thanks

    Restart your mac:
    Safe Boot: Hold down the shift key after the chime until the Apple logo appears and the gear is moving.
    It will take awhile but you will be asked to login.
    Go to your Applications folder> Utilities and launch Disk Utility.
    In the left side column, highlight your drive and repair permissions.( button down below).
    From BDAqua:
    Quit Mail, then In your home folder, try moving this folder & file to the Desktop then reboot...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Caches/Mail
    Move to the Desktop...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Mail/Envelope Index
    Mail will ask to import your messages. If all goes well and Mail is fixed trash the files on the desktop.

  • Mail acting weird and lost all emails yesterday

    I live in Australia using the Telstra Bigpond internet services. Bigpond is a POP server (POP3 I think) and is in the process of migrating customers to the IMAP system. I am on the POP system.
    I successfully, I thought, installed the Mavericks update and all seemed well until I noticed that when I went to collect my mail from the Bigpond server I would see the progress bar (for the incoming messages) flash quickly across the screen saying "10 of 10" but no messages were in my 'IN BOX'. I checked the Bigpond server and there were none sitting on the server and all had been delivered to my in box - supposedly!.
    I thought I would test the outgoing and incoming by sending a test message and 3 of 3 were sent (I only sent one). When the message come back it came back in a flash as 6 of 6 but was not in my inbox at all.
    I contacted Apple support (still working with them on this problem) and we made some changes to my junk mail settings and removed all 'Rules' and now the emails are coming in - I have lost a full days emails and don't know if I can get them back so far I can't. The mail program is still stating 3 of 3 incoming when just one message comes in or 4 of 4 when one is sent (the numbers being sent and received bear no relationship to the numbers coming in nor being sent and are completely, it seems, random.
    I also have a 'flagged' message inidicated in the flagged box under the 'Inbox' but no message is there at all and I cannot remove the flag.
    I have not done any changes to my mail program at all to create this problem that did not exist before I installed Mavericks and I have not attempted to try anything with iCloud mail before I can see a resolution to my laptop mail problems.
    For information my 15" macbook pro is compatible with the Mavericks upgrade and I have no other obvious problems at this point that I can identify - Photoshop CS5 seems to be working OK and I have had no problems with the Windows 7 partition (bootcamp) after installing Mavericks. Just Mail at the moment.
    Any thoughts on how I can remove the 'flag' for a non existant message and get the incoming and outgoing 'counter' to read accurately?
    Thanks

    Hi Tuttle,
    I'm glad you are not experiencing the problem. However, there is NO confusion here - the numbers are random and do NOT represent the incoming or the outgoing numbers of messages as you would normally expect. This morning I got 195 of 195 and got no messages coming in at all! I have been using Macs for more than a decade and this has never happened before. This has only happened for the first time when I changed to Mavericks and is happening on both of my laptops (macbook air and Macbook Pro 15inch) - it is NOT the computer.
    "To my eyes, the numbers we see in the Activity pane increase in increments of 1 with each message that is sent or received by a given mail account, starting with "1 of 1" after Mail is launched in any given session"  - of course this is what you would expect to happen.
    If the problem doesn't exist for you then your comments, as well intended as they are, are not really going to help - it is a bit like me telling you it is raining outside but you are in a railway tunnel - what rain?  I am grateful for your contribution and interest so please don't take offence. The issue is known to Apple Techs - they tell me that they can see the same thing happening on their computers - and their explanation of why it is happening is somewhat frustrating and definitely not sitting well with me.
    I suppose at the end of the day, if I get my emails I should not be too concerned but for those having this experience it is still a bit lame.
    Regards to all....

  • Url links in Mail & Word are not opening in Firefox. Safari loaded url's just fine. Working on Mac OSX 10.6.6

    My camera is a 1Ds mk II..
    and for that one it says
    All versions tested. All versions tested. Supported only through Lightroom 4.1.
    however, it also says
    Windows XP, Vista, 7; Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6
    which is plain wrong, because Canon never supported any drivers for Windows Vista or Win 7, not to speak of XP 64bit. (You cannot connect the camera via firewire, without the device drivers!)

  • When Mail Comes Back Up - Things to Consider

    I'm one of the people affected by the iCloud Mail outage.  On the other hand, I've been with Apple since 1984 and specifically has used dotMac, MobileMe and now iCloud.
    Because of that long history, I long ago came to the conclusion never to reply on Apple's supplied email as either your only email account or else it if's mission-critical email--such as the main contact address for a business.
    About 14 years ago I purchased a domain name (based on my family's surname) stictly for email use.  It's linked to a plain POP3 account from Network Solutions.  It's been completely reliable during that time.  My address associated with that domain name as always been my primary email address.  However, iCloud IMAP is nice.  When things are working, I've got my POP3 account set to automatically foward all mail to my iCloud account.  When iCloud is not working, I turn off forwarding--like I did yesterday.  My mistake yesterday was to wait too long to turn off the forwarding, thinking that iCloud email problems would be short-term.
    I always send important email via my POP3 account so that the address associated with that account is the one that's in the outside world.  I also have a rule set up to sweep sent email from my POP3 account to my iCloud account so that those sent messages are available on all of my devices.
    Yes, it costs a small amount to keep my domain name each year and it costs another small amount for the POP3 accounts for my wife and I.  But I do like iCloud syncing and do like the IMAP email that's always available on all of my Apple devices.  I think this setup works pretty well.  Every time I think about canceling my POP3 account, something like this happens.
    Don't flame me.  There are many messages in the various threads in this forum describing situations where someone's iCloud mail is not working and that email account is critical for that person.  There are obviously other approaches, including canceling iCloud.  My approach is just one of many.

    To be honest, a domain name and a full featured hosting account, with IMAP email typically can be had for under $200 (or even under $100, depending on the features you want or need) per year.
    I have my own domains as well (use different ones for different purposes) and even owning multiple domain names my total hosting bill is about $153.00/year.  For that I can host multiple web sites, have up to 2000 IMAP mail inboxes each with a unique email address, get something like 200GB of mass storage (not sure actually what the limit is now, it keeps growing each year), have blacklisting and whitelisting on the emails.  And, I get 24/7 uptime and support - in the last 5 years, my email has only been down once, and that was for an announced scheduled downtime late at night.
    If you need mission critical email, then get a service that fits the bill - it is cheap relative to what you've already spent in computer hardware and other costs of creating and running a business.  None of the free services, not one of them, promises anything about uptime, and all of them have terms of service that explicitly obsolve them of any responsibility for loss or damages due to downtimes.

  • Mail using weird default account for new mail

    I recently upgraded from Lion to Mountain Lion, and am having some trouble with Mail.
    I have five email accounts: Comcast, two Gmail-based and two on an independent company's servers (Pair Networks).
    When I'm in one of my inboxes and send a new email, the sending account is set correctly to that of the selected account. Likewise, if I respond to an email the sending account is set correctly.
    BUT - if I am anywhere else and send a new email - unified inbox, local folder of filed mail, etc. - the sending account appears as a sixth option that doesn't exist in my settings anywhere. The dropdown to select a sender account now shows six options instead of the usual five, and this is the last one, and is selected.
    The email address for that account happens to be the same as one of my accounts, but the name shown is strange.
    The original account reads like:
    Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>
    This weird sixth account reads like:
    "Firstname Lastname (s)" <[email protected]>
    - adding quotes around the name and a parentheses s at the end of the name.
    The original account is not the first in the list, nor the last. It is second. The first is a Gmail account - not sure if that is relevant.
    iCloud is not enabled for Mail - all my devices do their own connecting to mail.
    Soooo.....hmmm. What do folks think? Is there somewhere I should be able to set an overall default account, when a sending account can't be determined based on the selected folder?

    "Account of selected mailbox"
    The bogus account doesn't appear in the list. The original (Firstname Lastname <[email protected]>) does appear, as the second option in the dropdown list.

  • Copying drawing objects from MS word to clipboard

    Hi all,
    Is there any way to copy anything from ms-word and store it in the file and retreive that back from file and paste it back to ms-word ?
    I have a applet that is able to copy string and image data independently from clipboard to java and vise versa. I am not able to do the same with organization chart or any mixture of string and image data. I am not even sure about the DataFlavor to use. Can some one please suggest any possible solution ?
    I tried with "image/x-java-image;class=java.awt.Image" and
    "text/rtf; class=java.io.InputStream". but unable to get any result from clipboard.
    My requirement is to store some charts from ms-word to java and later on retrieve them back to java into ms-word and make modification in the chart.
    Thanks in advance,
    Sid

    Any idea on this .................... Pleeeeease :-(
