Open e mail attachement with?

I am using both safari and firefox and when I receive an e mail with an internet link, my computer uses safari to view. If i want to change to Firefox, how do 'i change this preference??
In addition, I have just loaded office 2008 and it is now the default for word or excel e mail attachments. How do I revert to office 2004 as default?
Thanks

Hi Matt & Joshz;
I tried both of your suggestions, the apple + l creates an alias
ah, sorry, that was a capital i (looks like: I), not a lowercase l (looks like l). I can see your confusion!
the apple + i brings up the "open with" tab, I make the changes as suggested and apply to all but when I test this by going to an e mail that has been received, an excel document opens with excel 2008, not 2004.
Do other excel documents open with '08 or '04? What about word and powerpoint? Did you maybe forget to change excel?
Good luck!

  • 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

  • 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

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

    Hi all,
         i have an infopath form where a user fills the form and on submit the form is saving as an document in the document library,
    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.

  • How to get mail to open a PPS attachment with Keynote instead of Preview in OS 10.8.5

    How do I get Keynote to open a PPS attachment in Mail using OS 10.8.5

    One more thing. I know you can do the "get info thing" and then change the "open with" however this only works when I drag the attachment to the desktop NOT in Mail.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Sapscript via mail: attachment with body

    Hi all
    I need your opinion in order to solve the problem in object
    I've an old bill message to be sent via mail, so I've set the customizing by NACE and now it works fine
    The problme is the sapscript is attached to e-mail as pdf but any text is inserted to body mail:
    any text can't be inserted: I saw the note 753622 (Sending of body text and PDF attachment with medium 5), it speaks clearly, it's not possible to add a text.
    So the only solutions seem to be:
    - to try to change the form function in order to add a text as note [like here|Setting Mail Subject and Body;
    - Send the mail by your self (getting OTF data) 
    How have you solve it?
    Thanks
    Max

    Hi Max,
    If I need any sort of email body for an output-based email, I always implement a custom processing routine with mode '5' or mode '8' and leverage existing data retrieval calls where possible.  As you've seen, SAP's output processing options are very limited and clumsy for email processing.  A more professional HTML email body is the way to go - your best option is to handle it yourself.

  • How could I re-open my mail box with error message :The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?

    How could I re-open my mail box, as an error message blocked "The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?" Even I entered re-open, the airbook does not response but prompt the same error message again.

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • Can't open e-mail attachment from Russia to UK

    Hello,
    I've been sent an e-mail attachment from Russia to the UK but when I click on 'downdload file' I get the message 'Cannot open file'.
    I'm using Windows 7 on a laptop.
    Would be grateful for any advice.

    Better yet, ask the sender to use a file sharing service (Acrobat Workspaces, Dropbox, Google Drive, ...), then send the download link by email.

  • Can't open e-mail attachment

    I have an email with an attachment that won't open. It told me to sign up for Adobe, which I did, but the attached
    still won't open. What do I do?

    Hi jhammer1,
    Do you get an error message when you try to open the PDF attachment? You say you signed up for Adobe; does that mean you get a free Acrobat.com account? Or, did you download and install the free Adobe Reader? If you don't have Reader, please download it from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html and install it. Once it's installed, you should be able to open PDF attachments.
    Please let us know how it goes.

    Hi Stefan,
      Thanks for your Blog.
    The same java mapping is been used in my current system, but the legacy system cannot read
    some emails as they are asking us to send the email in MIME format.
    Already i am sending in MIME format itself.
    They can read some Emails and they cannot ream some Emails.
    I think the problem could be their exchange server.
    Can you please suggest on this.
