Outgoing mail document that refuses to be sent but also refuses to be deleted.

I've got an outgoing mail message that refuses to be sent but also refuses to be deleted. It's really frustrating! I've tried pressing return and then quickly delete- quitting mail- restarting the computer- but the message keeps popping up. HELP!

Quit Mail, Trash this file...
Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, test if things work OK in Safe Mode.
Then move these files to the Desktop for now...
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist
/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
Reboot & test.
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.

  • How do I make a correction to a document that has already been sent out for e-signature?

    I thought I posted this question this morning but I don't see it in the forum so I'm posting again.  I apologize if it shows up twice.
    For example, let's say I have a 40-page document that I need someone to sign. I spend 15 minutes to add all of the "initial here" and "sign here" fields to the Echosign document.
    Then I send the document out for signature.
    The recipient says, "It looks like you missed a spot where I was supposed to initial on the document."
    It seems the only way I know how to fix this now is to:
    1. Void the current document
    2. Re-import the PDF from my computer into Echosign
    3. Spend another 15 minutes inserting all the "initial here" and "sign here" fields.
    4. Re-send out the document for him to sign
    There must be a better way, right?  Docusign says they have the ability for the document sender to make a correction to an existing document and re-send it out, and there is also a capability for the signer to make corrections to the document (which would be initialed by any other signers later)

    Esign services don't allow for red-lining. The assumption is that final approved documents are used.
    So indeed if you spot a mistake which means it voids the contract you indeed cancel the outstanding one and start over.
    To avoid re-doing field do one of 2 things:
    Upload the document as library template and enable form field layers.
    Should you need to start over, upload the document again, but apply the previously created form field layer:
    first under the dashboard use the add template to library
    check the option for Create as reusable form field layer
    upload a document and add fields as needed.
    When you upoad the same or similar document, youcan apply the form field layer:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/document-cloud/help/reusable-form-field-layer.html
    or markup the source document with text tags:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/document-cloud/help/adding-esign-services-agreement-fields.html
    this means the form fields will already be part of the document prior to uploading to eSign services.

  • InDesign CS5 crashes when documents that have tables are sent to data merge.

    I have several documents that I have been using for the past 6 months that have tables on some of the pages and when I go to data merge them, CS5 crashes. When I remove the tables, they merge just fine. Some of these documents have to have the tables, so not havaing tables is a problem. I have even tried redoing the tables in Excel, Word & InDesign, but that doesn't seem to work. Is there a setting or something that I am missing?

  • My outgoing mail server auto defaults to port 465 but auto detect settings box is not checked

    Hi Guys,
    Hope someone can help.
    I am having problems sending emails as my provider does not support port 465 as an outgoing mail server port, only 587 and 25.  Despite not having 'auto detect settings' box checked in mac mail my port defaults to 465 whatever I put in there. 
    I am running 10.10.1 and the latest version of mac mail.
    Hope someone can help.
    Cheers

    Hello,
    I figured out my problem. I had somehow changed the "user name" in the outgoing server. (edit server list > Advanced tab > user name). When I corrected the user name, so that it exactly matches the user name for the "Incoming mail server" the outgoing server is back online!
    Of course, I still have the problem of having to enter my keyword password repeatedly, but that is in a different thread . . .

  • E-mail typed lines appear full when sent but upon reply they are broken into one or two words per line.

    Why do my e-mail messages to people appear to have full lines when I send them but when they reply, the "full lines" are broken up with one word on a
    single line?

    Dear Friends,
    E-mail messages sent, are received not in the paragraph-form as sent, but are broken-up into small segments, one line finely printed, the next line may appear with two or three words printed on it, then the next line will show a few words at the end of it, while the next line appears as the start of another paragraph, and so on and on and on. So that the original message, although sent in the one paragraph-form, winds up being received as several paragraphs, each broken up into several segments. My contacting Apple has produced no solution thus far. I am new at this computer
    business and would greatly appreciate any help you can give me on this score. Thanking you in advance for your interest and kind help.
    Yours Truly,
    Broduff.

  • HT1040 book is fine in preview and there was confirmation that the book was sent, but apple saying there are errors

    i have done a number of books successfully in aperture 3.
    I have done a book using instagram photoes.
    I have previewed the book in PDF and there are no errors.
    I sent the book off, with a confirmation fro apple that the book was sent.
    Then i get an email saying:
    Dear Apple customer,
    It appears that when your order was submitted to Apple, an error caused the image file to be unreadable or unprintable. As a result, Apple is unable to process your order and you will not be charged.
    We recommend previewing your print product and placing the order again. For instructions on how to preview your order, refer to the article below.

    question:
    Does the file size of the book matter?
    Does color format matter e.g. RGB etc

    Things that may prevent printing:
    Default text or default images, for example missing  background photos or captions
    Non-standard fonts - did you use any non-Apple  fonts or font sizes?
    Low resolution - did any yellow low-resolution warning triangles show? In that case move the image in question to smaller photo boxes or replace them by versions with a higher resolution.
    Corrupted image files or non-standard image file formats.
    If the preview is o.k. without any warning, try again. Maybe it was just a transmission error.

  • User Executes Stored Procedure That Executes sp_send_dbmail; receives email but also gets error Cannot alter the queue 'ExternalMailQueue', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.

    Using SQL Server 2012 SP1
    I have a user that is submitting a procedure that uses sp_send_dbmail.  I have also noticed that they have the following code in their procedure
    DECLARE @rc INT
    IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM msdb.sys.service_queues
    WHERE name = N'ExternalMailQueue' AND is_receive_enabled = 1)
    EXEC @rc = msdb.dbo.sysmail_start_sp
    The user submits the procedure and she gets the email but she also gets the following error message:
    Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sysmail_start_sp, Line 8
    Cannot alter the queue 'ExternalMailQueue', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
    Mail (Id: 2402) queued.
    (1 row(s) affected)
    I have granted execute to sp_send_dbmail and sysmail_start_sp.  I have also granted select to service_queues.
    Does anyone have any solutions for the above error message?
    lcerni

    The contents of sysmail_start_sp is this:
    CREATE PROCEDURE sysmail_start_sp
    AS
        SET NOCOUNT ON
        DECLARE @rc INT
       DECLARE @localmessage nvarchar(255)
        ALTER QUEUE ExternalMailQueue WITH STATUS = ON
        SELECT @rc = @@ERROR
        IF(@rc = 0)
        BEGIN
          ALTER QUEUE ExternalMailQueue WITH ACTIVATION (STATUS = ON);
           SET @localmessage = FORMATMESSAGE(14639, SUSER_SNAME())
           exec msdb.dbo.sysmail_logmailevent_sp @event_type=1, @description=@localmessage
        END
    RETURN @rc
    The user get the error, because she does not have any permission on the queue in question. To be able to alter the queue, the following applies according to Books Online:
    Permission for altering a queue defaults to the owner of the queue, members of the db_ddladmin or db_owner fixed database roles, and members of the sysadmin fixed server role.
    Note that is would be db_ddladmin or db_owner in msdb. Now, supposedly the queue is already active, and in that case I think that it is sufficient that the user has VIEW DEFINITION on the view. This would permit her to see the row in sys.service_queues,
    why there would be no need to call sysmail_start_sp.
    Altertanively, change the check to:
    DECLARE @isenabled bit
    SELECT @isenabled = (SELECT is_receive_enabled FROM msdb.sys.service_queues
                   WHERE name = N'ExternalMailQueue')
    IF @isenabled = 0
       EXEC @rc = msdb.dbo.sysmail_start_sp
    The idea here is that, if the user has no permission to read the information in the DMV, @isenabled will be NULL, and you just pray and hope that the queue is up and running.
    I suspect that the reason this worked for you on SQL 2005 is that on that instance someone at some point in made all the required configurations for it to work, but all that is forgotten now. That happens to me too.
    If you really want the user to be able to start the queue, I have some better ideas than adding her to a role, but I skip the details for now.

  • I keep recieving notifications that my e-mails could not be delivered, e-mails however that I had never sent in the first place!!!Why is this and what can I do

    I keep getting notifications that my e-mails (which I never sent!!) could not be delivered to recipients unknown to me. I can find no trace of them in my "messages sent" file, despite of the fact that I have the option of keeping copies of sent messages set "on". What can I do to find out what is going on and to overcome this annoyance -and perhaps peril-?

  • TS3276 My gmail or icloud mailbox has no incoming mail, showing that the mailboxes are connected but nothing coming in, mailbox rebuild option is greyed out. any ideas?

    My mail has suddenly stopped receiving any incoming mail, I have gmail and of course icloud but nothing coming in or going out. I've ran the connection doctor and it's showing that the connection to the internet is fine, so where is the mail?
    Cannot rebuild mailbox as the option is greyed out...any ideas?
    I can access my gmail via the internet so posts will be seen.
    thanks, any advice will be welcome as i'm at a loss.

    What about the connections to the mail servers?

  • HT5772 How do I delete podcast episodes that I don't want to keep without having them stay in my List view in iTunes and clog it up?  I have some episodes that I've listened to that I want to keep, but others I want to delete.

    Using iTunes on my MacBookPro, I find that when I want to delete selected podcast eisodes, they still stay in my List view with the cloud symbol next to them. I don't want them in my List view. I want them gone. I don't want to download them ever again. I do keep some episodes so I don't want to do the draconian thing and delete all podcast episodes once I've heard them. The other problem I have with trying to delete episodes is that some podcasts then have the same episodes pop back up as though I haven't listened to them. I've deleted a bunch of Science Friday episodes only to have them download again ready to hear. Not only that, but some episodes will finish playing or stop playing in the middle of an episode and a random podcast will start playing. Think! does that. GAH!!
    Does anyone know a workaround? The same nonsense happens in any iTunes view I try.
    <Edited by Host>

    You can delete photos from individual albums but not from the camera roll.  If you try to delete a photo from camera roll it will be deleted from all other albums ("locations") that contain the photo.  This is because the actual photo is in the camera roll (the albums only contain links to the photo in camera roll, not the actual photo).

    MY_PAY_ITEMS is a table that stores payslip line items.  It has a total size of 500,000,000 rows.
    EMP is the unique employee id,  We have approx 200,000 employees (with approx 50,000 being active today).
    PAY_PRD is a weekly pointer (2010-01, 2010-02 ... 2010-52), we have data from 2004 and are adding a new pay period every week.  2010-01 is defined as the first monday in 2010 to the first sunday in 2010 etc.
    KEY1 is an internal key, it tracks the timeline within the pay period.
    KEY2 is a child of KEY1, it tracks the sequence of events within KEY1.
    LN_ITEM is the actual pay item that resulted from the event on average a person generates 20 rows per event.  Note that in this example everybody gets the same LN_ITEM values, but in practice it is 20 selected from 300
    ITEM_AMT is the net pay for the line item.
    FILLER is an assortment of fields that are irrelevant to this question, but do act as a drag on any row loads.
    MY_ITEM_DISPLAY is a table that describes how certain screens should display items.  The screen itself is a 4 column grid, with the contents of the individual cells being defined as a lookup of LN_ITEMS to retrieve the relevant LN_AMT.
    We have an application that receives a DISPLAY_CODE and an EMP.  It automatically creates a sql statement along the lines of
    SELECT * FROM MY_VIEW WHERE DISPLAY_CODE = :1 AND EMP = :2
    and renders the output for the user.
    My challenge is that I need to rewrite MY_VIEW as follows:
    1) Select the relevant rows from MY_ITEM_DISPLAY where DISPLAY_CODE = :1
    2) Select the relevant all rows from MY_PAY_ITEMS that satisfy the criteria
       a) EMP = :2
       b) PAY_PRD = (most recent one for EMP as at sysdate, thus if they last got paid in 2010-04 , return 2010-04)
       c) KEY1 = (highest key1 within EMP and PAY_PRD)
       d) KEY2 = (highest key2 within EMP, PAY_PRD and KEY1)
    3) I then need to cross reference these to create a tabular output
    4) Finally I have to return a line of 0's where no LN_ITEMs exist ( DISPLAY_CODE 01, sequence 40 contains impossible values for this scenario)
    The below query does part of it (but not the PAY_PRD, KEY1, KEy2 )
    select * from (
    SELECT A.DISPLAY_CODE
    , B.EMP
    , A.SEQUENCE
    , MAX(DECODE(B.LN_ITEM, A.COLUMN_ITEM1, B.ITEM_AMT, 0)) "COL1"
    , MAX(DECODE(B.LN_ITEM, A.COLUMN_ITEM2, B.ITEM_AMT, 0)) "COL2"
    , MAX(DECODE(B.LN_ITEM, A.COLUMN_ITEM3, B.ITEM_AMT, 0)) "COL3"
    , MAX(DECODE(B.LN_ITEM, A.COLUMN_ITEM4, B.ITEM_AMT, 0)) "COL4"
    FROM MY_ITEM_DISPLAY A, MY_PAY_ITEMS B
    WHERE B.PAY_PRD = '2010-03'
    GROUP BY A.DISPLAY_CODE, B.EMP, A.SEQUENCE)
    WHERE DISPLAY_CODE = '01'
    AND EMP = '0000011'
    ORDER BY SEQUENCE
    My questions
    1) How do I do the PAY_PRD, KEY1, KEY2 constraint, can I use some form of ROW_NUMBER() OVER function ?
    2) How do I handle the fact that none of the 4 column LN_ITEMS may exist  (see sequence 40, none of those line items can exist)...  Ideally the above SQL should return
    01, 0000011, 10, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>
    01, 0000011, 20, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>
    01, 0000011, 30, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>, <some number>
    01, 0000011, 40, 0            , 0            , 0            , 0           
    I tried a UNION, but his prevented the view from eliminating the bulk of the MY_PAY_ITEMS rows, as it resolve ALL of MY_PAY_ITEMS instead of just retrieving rows for the one EMP passed to the view.  The same seems to be true for any outer joins.
