Opening google docs with apple mail

Hi there
Anyone worked out away to open an attachment in Apple Mail App using Google Docs? Or will I have to change my mail app or stick with using Gmail in my browser?
Any hints appreciated
Cheers

Google Docs is not an application. It is just a web page. If you want to open a true attachment with Google Docs, you have to upload it. Normally, documents that originate in Google Docs are shared via a link to the document in Google Docs. If you want to open true attachments, you need an application that can handle the data.

Mail Message URLs like message: ... not working with Apple Mail any more

Links to certain messages are not working for me any more. For example if I drag a Mail to TextEdit Mac OS X creates a correct Link with the scheme: message:<... etc. Those links should open the linked message in Apple Mail. This seems broken for me.
Is there a way to reenable this functionality, via Terminal or so?
I have to admit that I used Sparrow for a short time. It looks like this stole the message-linking. Now I completely removed Sparrow, but it is still not working again with Apple Mail. Any suggestions?
Kind regards,
Markus

nope, same result with the flags, and now my eyes are burning from having used outlook mode instead of classic mode.

Open Word docs with the new Pages?

Pages does not open. I had the new one installed but apparently had the old one still up. How can I open Word docs with the new Pages?

Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5.01 can not open Pages 5.1 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
Once opened and saved in Pages 5.1 files can not be opened in Pages 5.
Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
Apple has removed over 95 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

Archive/trash Pages 5, after exporting all Pages 5 files to Pages '09 or Word .docx, and rate/review it in the App Store, then get back to work.

Send html mail with apple mail

I used to send a html newsletter with apple mail. I opened the html file in safari pressed cmd + i and a html mail was created. On Yosemite there seems to be a bug with this feature. After pressing cmd + i it creates a mail and html website is selected in this mail, but the mail body is empty. Now I have no ideo how to send the newsletter. Apple mail was the only way to achive a correctly displayed newsletter on most common mail clients.
Does anyone have the same problem or a solution?

Seems to be a bug in Safari under Yosemite. Occurs only with HTML pages which are stored locally on the Mac and then opened with Safari.
Two options for a work around:
(1)
When Apple Mail shows a blank page, choose PDF instead of WEB PAGE in the mail header.
Thereafter, the contents will appear as a PDF attachment.
(2)
Publish the HTML page. Surf with Safari to the published page. Use the command "File : Send : Email this page".
Now it should work.

Problems opening Google Docs

HI
I have a 3G blackberry with 6.0 OS.
I have a little problem with blackberry browser. I tried to open google docs. I found a good mobile site but when I try to open a page i can't view all the page. I can view only on the up-left of the page... i can't go right or down.
I don't think it's a google problem. I have the same problem with ATM Mobile (an application to see metros of Milan). When i try to see maps of metros I can't scroll the (probably) jpeg image of the maps (a vertical image. I can see up o down but not the middle of the image).
Why there is a problem like this in a good smartphone like it?
Thanks who can help me

How can I open items made with apple works

How can I open items made with apple works

You need to purchase Pages for your iMac. You can buy it from the App Store.
I don't know if the version of Pages for the iPad will open the Apple Works documents. If you have the documents on your Mac and want to open them on your iPad the easiest way I can think of is to open a DropBox (Google it) account and store the documents there. Then you can try to open the documents in Pages on your iPad. If that doesn't work then I know Pages for OS X will open the Apple Works WP documents.

Is there a problem with Apple Mail using IMAP

Is there a problem with Apple Mail using IMAP? Having a problem syncing to our mail server: doesn't sync properly when multiple devices use same mail acct. Spoken w/ mail hosting provider who says Apple Mail doesn't follow IMAP protocol properly leaving Apple Mail users to experience a variety of problems when connecting to IMAP accounts. Among them:
- Improper syncing
- Proliferation of drafts during composition of an email.
- Connections on the mail host do not close automatically and proliferate over time until the host rejects further connection requests.
Hosting provider goes on to suggest turning off IDLE command. In my experience turning this feature off did not improve the situation. In fact, it created a few.
Question: Is the hosting provider correct in faulting Apple Mail?
Been fielding the question with a number of people. I'm aware of three people who are experiencing similar problems, each using different mail hosts. Tech reps at inmotionhosting.com and nexcess.com point the finger at a Apple Mail, along with an IT specialist in Los Angeles, CA, and a tech support rep at an Apple Store in Arizona who said that Apple and Google mail are aware of and coordinating to resolve the problem.
Anyone out there have any insights into this?

Can't open google docs since iOS 6

Since I upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPad and iPhone, I can no long open Google Docs on Google Drive. I have been using QuickOffice Pro HD for a couple years. When I went to open files that I had opened days earlier, I get an error message. I thought the problem was with QuickOffice, but I loaded Office2 HD and get the same message. I can still access Word Documents on Google Drive using QuickOffice. I can access the Google Docs using CloudOn, but that program saves the Google Doc as a Word Doc, so now I have two documents with the same name and I don't really want to go back through and convert everything. I'm guessing there's something about the upgrade that is causing this problem. Anybody else having this problem. The support forum for QuickOffice is enraged, but I'm not sure they're the culprit. Thx

Here is the pic of what happens why he opens the file on iOS 6. It does not go any further. I open it fine with no problems, I am on iOS 5.1.1

What is the best mail account to use with Apple Mail?

Hi All, I am a recent convert to Mac from a PC and I am on a sharp learning curve. At present I am trying to use mail on Leapord. I have a Googlemail account which I have tried linking to Apple mail but I seem to get the same issue many others have with send e-mails. What is more, googlmail's All Mail facility is doing my nut in at the moment.
Therefore I was wondering what is the best mail account to use with Apple Mail? I only have a Mackbook and an i-pod nano so subscribing to mobile me at £58/yr just to get the @mac.com account (which I assume would be perfect) seems a little extreme for me.
Are their any other account that work correctly and don't have this All Mail option.
Thanking you in advance.

Hi,
I have 2 issues.
1) I have mail 3.6 and when I set up the mail account via IMAP and STMP I recieve mails ok, but I can not send them. If I do I get the following window pop up.
"can not send message using smtp.googlemail.com server" it tells me my address was rejected by the server.
2) I have 2500 e-mails in my All Mails folder on googlemail. Nearly all of these I delete from my inbox years ago (my bad mailbox management). Google seems to store all my mails. I want to delete these permentaly as they also get downloaded into Apple Mail.
Hope you can help.

Problems with Apple Mail and Gmail

Hiya
I'm keen to integrate my Gmail Account with Apple Mail via POP3, however having followed the instructions given by Google - it doesn't seem to work correctly?
I would appreciate if someone would kindly help me. I look forward to hearing from someone.
Many thanks,
Adam

Hi,
I want to setup gmail as the default email.I've tried almost everything..google notifier, don't like to have gmail inbox in my mac apps inbox ( I could do that successfuly ).I hate it actually that I have to use entourage to send photos first to my gmail and then forward to friends.There is nothing wrong with mac mail or entourage but I just love my gmail...help please!
Apple needs to fix two things to make their mail more popular ( infact the features are great especially with new iLife'08 ) : one , mac mail should be free like all major email services ( I'll be happy with 4GB free space rather than 10GB which they are offering now with subscription ) and second they should create userfriendly environment to use any email ids as default.
Thx

Challenges with Apple Mail auto-complete

Hi all,
I'm seeking advice regarding some challenges with Apple Mail auto-complete email addresses for a friend's AOL mail IMAP account. Main issue: in Apple Mail, recently contacted email addresses are not appearing via auto-complete. As such, I'm doing some research for him and have some questions:
- Any resources on how email contacts are managed in Apple Mail?
- Any resources on how email contacts are managed in Apple Contacts? What's the difference? I'm not 100% clear how they are linked.
- Seeking alternative to Apple Mail for someone who is legally blind. Are there some alternatives with a simpler interface and possibly better integration with VoiceOver? Just curious
Any help is appreciated.
Mac Mini (late 2012)
Mac OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
Apple Mail v 6.6
Apple Contacts v7.1

1) Reindex Mail
Go to your User's Library folder. (if you don't know how to find, see this link.)
http://www.needhelp4mac.com/2013/11/how-to-enable-users-library-folder/
Scroll to Mail folder.
Select the V2 > MailData folder.
Delete any files in MailData with envelope in the name. (should be 3)
When you open Mail it will re-index your files.
2) Search is based off Spotlight cache files.
HOW TO RE-INDEX YOUR SPOTLIGHT CACHE FILES
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
* Click Spotlight.
* Click the Privacy tab.
* Drag your drive to the list. Wait a couple of minutes.
* Remove the item you added.
* Spotlight will re-index the contents of the item you initially dragged to the list.
Contacts in Mail
Under Window in the Menu bar, select Previous Recipients List. If the person is in your Contacts, there will be an icon next to the email address. You can add entries to contacts or remove from the list. For example your friend got a new email address but autofil wants to use an old email address. Remove the old entry.
While Mail and Contacts are two separate applications they are tightly integrated.
I'm sorry but I have no other suggestions for a better email client.
Download and run the Mountain Lion combo to refresh your system files.
OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.5 (Combo) 831.81 MB
