Outlook express, add a hyperlink to a location on a  windows network,how2?

In Outlook you can add a hyperlink to a location on a network how can this be done on a mac in mail?
for example I get set this
G:\
Looking at the plain text it looks like this
G:\Home\MattJayC\LIBRARY\photography
<file:///\\uranus\DJKID\Home\MattJayC\LIBRARY\photography>
On the PC Outlook, you go to insert hyperlink then navigate the folder on the network, and click OK.
What is the quickest way or work around for me.
Matt

OK thanks. That number is always a theoretical "best" figure and the actual bandwidth is usually about half of that number.
So call it 50 Mbps that is really available to the Express.  The "extend" setup now takes away another half of that on average, so the Express must share 25-30 Mbps among 5-6 devices or so....maybe an average of 5-6 Mpbs per device.
That's less than half of the bandwidth on the old 802.11b system.
I imagine that there is just not enough bandwidth available for this to work well.
The AirPort Extreme can assign IP addresses for up to 200 devices and the Express is operating in bridge mode, so connected devices are being assigned IP addresses by the AirPort Extreme.  The Express acts a "pass through" device in this type of setup.
My opinion is that it is a bandwidth issue and the Express simply shuts down or locks up when it cannot handle the load that it is being asked to deliver.
Sorry, but I really see no workaround here other than an Ethernet cable run from the AirPort Extreme to the location of the switch.  Using Gigabit switches, now you have probably 8-10 times as much bandwidth or more for each device....about 50-60 Mpbs per device.
You may of course, get some other opinions from other users on this.

  • I'm using Windows XP. outlook Express hyperlinks are not working. Might Firefox be blocking the hyperlinks?

    I've tried the "FIX IT" on the Microsoft website but it did not fix it. I've been in touch with my anti virus software company who assure me that their product cannot block hyperlinks. I've gone into windows folder options/ file types to check settings but they seem OK. I'm now wondering if a seting in Firefox could block the hyperlinks.

    Hi,
    Many thanks to those who took the time to reply. I use Firefox as my default browser to search the internet. I use Outlook Express to download my emails. Some emails have hyperlinks. When I place the cursor over a hyperlink a (very long) web address appears at the bottom of the window but clicking on the link does nothing. I have searched the internet for possible solutions. One was that the problem was caused by my anti virus software blocking the hyperlink. My anti virus software provider excluded this. Another related to a possible problem in windows XP control panel/folder options/file types. I checked this and all was OK. A website suggested that my browser may be causing the problem. Firefox itself is my default browser and is working OK. My question is "can a setting (or something else) in Firefox block the hyperlinks in Outlook Express from working''. The problem occurs in Outlook Express but the hyperlinks have to work via Firefox to open the links which are web pages (accessed via Firefox)..

  • Moving emails from outlook express to mail

    is there a way to get all of my old emails from outlook express to mail? My old PC is about to die and then I'll loose all of my emails :s that is why I am wondering if there is a solution, now.

    I don't know whether you can do this on a PC version of Outlook Express or not, but I know that you can do stuff like this with Apple's Mail, so it may be worth a shot to try this and see if it works.
    First off, I am assuming that all this old mail is a POP account, and not IMAP. If it were IMAP, it would all be safe on your email account provider's IMAP server and all you would have to do is create the new account in Apple Mail and the first time you connected, it would autosync with the server and all your old mail would just be there. But if POP, all mail is downloaded to your computer then deleted from the server. So, assuming this to be a POP account, here is what I would try to do if I were you.
    1. Go to http://webmail.aol.com and sign up for a new free IMAP email account from AOL. You could get a free gmail account if you wanted, too, but I believe there is a bit of extra configuration involved in making it a IMAP and not POP. AOL is IMAP by default. Plus, AOL is a built-in new-account setup option in Apple Mail.
    2. On the PC in Outlook Express, add a new account for your new AOL email account. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/883081 to find out all the particulars about account settings and how to do it in Outlook Express.
    3. On the Mac in Apple Mail, as stated in #1 above, AOL Mail is one of the options when creating a new account. Just follow Mail's "new account wizard" to create your AOL account there.
    4. On the Mac, create a second new account for your existing POP account. Mirror the individual mail folder layout that are on your old PC for the old POP account.
    5. This is the part that I don't know if PC Outlook Express will let you do, but I know that Apple Mail does:
    (a) Open each of your mail folders in the old POP account stored on your dying hard drive one at a time
    (b) Highlight/select all the messages in that folder
    (c) Drag them to the AOL inbox. In Apple Mail, they would be copied to the IMAP server, preserving all the original "From" and "Date Received" and other information like that.
    6. On the Mac, drag the messages that you uploaded into the AOL inbox and drop them into the appropriate folder of the "legacy" POP account that you created in #4. That will clear them out of the AOL inbox and they will now be stored on your computer as downloaded popmails.
    7. Go back to step #5 and repeat this process for each of your folders on the old PC until you have emptied all the messages off your old computer.
    Now, I will have to issue a disclaimer that I have only done this myself from IMAP to IMAP and to/from IMAP from/to "On My Mac" folders, which keeps copies of messages locally but not on IMAP servers. So I have no reason to suspect that this would not apply equally to POP since it worked with "On My Mac" folders. And whether the PC's Outlook Express will support the POP-to-IMAP drag-and-drop is a total unknown to me.
    I'm sure I'll hear back via this forum whether this worked or not, but it's the best idea that I can come up with, and like I said, a similar (but not identical) situation worked for me before.

  • Hyperlinks to folder locations don't work

    Hello,
    I'm having trouble creating functioning hyperlinks to folder locations on local or network drives. I've tried this both in InDesign CS3 and InDesign CS1 on Windows XP.
    I select the text, create new hyperlink, choose 'URL' as Type, then paste the filepath into the URL box (e.g. D:\). If my text tool is within the hyperlink text of the InDesign document, then I click on 'Go to hyperlink destination', it will open a new Windows Explorer window with the correct destination. If I export to PDF, however (making sure to check 'Bookmarks' and 'Hyperlinks' to be included), these hyperlinks to local or network drives don't work. I get errors like 'Cannot find 'd:%5C'. Make sure the path or Internet address is correct'.
    The other hyperlinks to web addresses seem to work fine. Does anybody have ideas on this?

    I should have read that more closely.
    It doesn't seem to apply. The only reason that would matter is if you were running the SWF-output from Captivate locally.
    ALWAYS test your product from the web to avoid any such security issues.
    But yes, if you're putting the published file on a local/network drive, then that security change will need to be applied and, yes, for every computer that accesses the file.
    You definitely want to distribute from an HTTP location.
    I did hope the first part of that article would help. They're not difficult to setup once you find the option. Just highlight some text and right-click to setup the hyperlink...right?

  • Moving emails from Mail on Mac to Outlook Express on Windows...

    Can anyone help me with the following scenario?
    I have one Mac computer, with 2 accounts set up on it - one for me, one for my wife.
    My wife just recently got a Windows 'netbook' and now wants to transfer her entire Mail.app InBox to the new PC. There's no need to copy the Address Book (copied on a mobile phone already), and she doesn't really need the Sent Items or anything like that. All that she's interested in copying over is all the emails that are in Mail.app's InBox.
    The netbook has Windows XP on it, and Outlook Express.
    Bear in mind that there are hundreds of messages, so anything that involves saving/exporting each email individually one by one is not really an attractive option.
    Also, a fair amount of the emails will have attachments, so any method that supports retaining the attachments is welcomed.
    I know the Mac OS and all its apps like the back of my hand, but I must admit to being a total noob when it comes to Windows.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
    Mac OS 10.5.5
    Mail 3.5
    UPDATE: I do have Entourage 12 (Office 2008) on my Mac too, which is currently not used at all, if this can be used for any intermediary steps.

    I'm fairly sure you would be better off avoiding Outlook Express in favour of Mozilla Thunderbird, I have a Windows XP X64 PC that I used as my main pc before buying my MBP and used Thunderbird on it, when I got my MBP I remember moving the emails across was very easy, Mail.App and Thunderbird use a similar file structure, I'm sure I just dragged and dropped whole directories across (it is some time ago though).
    Here are 3 links, the first discusses Thunderbird and importing/exporting mail.
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Importingand_exporting_yourmail
    This gets more specific
    http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=363915 - you need to read down, he has put a 'how to on the post'
    The second is a program for converting from emix to mbox format.
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/29050
    BTW Thunderbird can be installed on OSX and Windows, so you can move all the emails over on the mac, check them with Thunderbird, before installing TB on your windows pute.
    Best of Luck.

  • Outlook express always appears "The file is already in use"

    I've created new email accnt for a mac user and setup the POP3 accnt in Outlook Express 5.
    When she send / check email, a windows dialog will display as follows.
    Explanation: the file is already in use
    Error: -47
    If she compose a new message and attached files, it will appear error that "the file is already in use"
    No matter reinstall OE or use the latest OE version. The problem is same. Anything is wrong? Please help. Thanks.

    Hi
    I have run into this a couple of times, though not in a while.
    I believe I got around it by selecting Save AS and saving the file with a new name i.e. Panorama B.tif or something to that effect.
    That seemed to convince it that I wasn't trying to save something that was in use someplace else.

  • How can I add an icon in the firefox toolbar to access to I.E. outlook express?

    I'd like to begin using Firefox as my default browser in place of O.E. 7. However, my Google mail account is programmed to feed e-mails to Outlook Express. I can find no way to add an icon to the Firefox toolbar to easily access Outlook Express.

    In my limited knowledge there is no way for a user to add an application to this list. You might try one of these two options.
    1. Use a utility like Cocktail or Onyx to reset the launch services database. This is the database that decides which applications get launched when a file is double clicked. It may be that the Endnote application didn't get recognized. However OS X decides what applications to add to the list based on files types.
    2. The easier solution is to select one of the files you wish to open with Endnote. Right click on the file and select Get Info. Under the "Open with" menu select Other... and navigate to the Endnote application and select it. Now click the Change all button. From now on when you double click your citation file it will automatically open with the Endnote application.

    Hi,
    As per the description, I understand that you'll have duplicate email addresses in the To... field when create calendar invites.
    In order to understand the issue more deeply, I would like to clarify the following questions:
    How did he/she "add people" in the To... field? Did he/she directly type email address or pick it from your address book?
    Will the duplicate happen right after adding people in the To... field or after sending the invites?
    Seems you've tried a lot on the machine side, I suggest we first try this on OWA (Outlook Web App) and see if issue persists. This will help to determine whether the issue is on the client side or the mailbox (server) side.

  • Excel freezing and Outlook losing Add-in

    I am having two issues on a workstation running Office 2013 home and business. The first issue is Excel randomly freezing when opening spreadsheets, it's random and will open two spreadsheets ok and freeze on the third and vice versa, there's nothing wrong
    with the spreadsheets. When it freezes it gets to the point where half the excel interface is loaded and locks up (it isn't not responding in Task Manager, still says running) and I have to close Excel and try again.
    - Tried full Office repair using online recovery
    - Tried different user profile
    - Tried opening spreadsheets from a network location and local drive
    - There are no errors in the Event logs regarding this at all
    - Disabled AV software, all Windows updates installed, still happens in Excel safe mode, disabled all excel add-ins
    - Run full virus scan, gone through and closed all the processes on the machine that I can, tested excel after stopping each process
    - Run full windows memory diagnostic and no errors reported
    - Computer is HP workstation only couple of months old, all latest drivers and updates
    - The workstation is running Windows 7 x64 Pro, Trend Micro AV software, part of a SBS 2011 domain.
    The other issue I am having on the same machine and reason I ask the question here instead of creating a new thread is because I thought they may be related. We use an Outlook 2013 add-in but on this machine every time we close Outlook the add-in disappears
    we actually have to go back in to Outlook each time and re-enable it and it works ok.
    I can only think of two options one is complete removal and reinstall of Office which I don't think will fix the issue or complete format/reinstall of Windows which will be very time consuming and would rather not do.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot for the detailed information you gave, it was very helpful. After read though your post, could you help me on some questions:
    For Excel crash:
    Questions:
    Is this the only workstaion which having this issue?
    Is this issue happen on particular spreadsheet?
    What is the cpu model of this workstation?
    Was this issue starting suddenly? If so what has been changed on the server?
    Some steps I would suggest to try:
    Clean boot your workstation and try to open the spreadsheet again.
    Delete temp files of current user.
    Disable hardware graphics acceleration
    File: Options: Advanced: Disable hardware graphics acceleration.
    Also please collect some information for me and send the information through mail to: [email protected]
    Click on the link below.
    http://support.microsoft.com/sdp/0B22492D3336343838333834303043
    Click on the Run button (recommended) to start the diagnostic process.
    Follow the onscreen instructions to run the diagnostic on this computer, or on a different computer.
    For Outlook
    Questions:
    Is this issue only happening on this workstation?
    Is the Group Policy set in your domain to control 3<sup>rd</sup> party loading behavior?
    Does Outlook start up slow? (Sometimes if Outlook start time exceeded threshold, add-in will be disabled)
                Some steps I would suggest to try:
    Change registry key under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins(name_of_the_addin), set load behavior to 3, which specifies that the add-in is loaded at startup. For more information, see
    LoadBehavior Values.
    Delete registy key under: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\outlook\resiliency\disableditems\
    Let me know the result, so we can check further, thank you.

  • How I copied all my Outlook Express data to my new Black MacBook

    Hi there!
    I just made the jump to the "Apple side" buying a shiny new Black Macbook, and having already got a lot of usefull information from this forum, I just wanted to give my little contribution...
    Here follows how I managed to copy ALL my Microsoft Outlook Express messages, settings and accounts from my "old" PC to my new MacBook:
    I just installed Mozilla Thunderbird on my PC and let the automated "import" function transfer all my data from Outlook Express; then I installed Thunderbird to the MacBook too (skipping all the setup procedures that start at the first run of the program).
    Then, on the "PC side", I located the folder where all the Thunderbird profile data is stored: it is something like "xxxxxxxx.default" (in my case "voakmfhs.default") and is stored in "C:\Documents and Settings\Windows_User\Application Data\Thunderbird\Profiles"
    So it was just a matter of copying all the "xxxxxxxx.default" folder from the PC to the Mac (on the "Mac side" just search for the "Thunderbird" folder and then open the "Profiles" subfolder where you have to copy all the stuff)
    The last step is to edit the Thunderbird "profiles.ini" file on the Mac, replacing the name of default folder that was assigned during the installation (which you can safely delete), with the name of the one copied from the PC...
    For any further question, feel free to ask
    Hope this is of some help!
    Ciao for now
