Problem viewing attachments in Mac client

Hello!
I am currently having a problem with Oracle Calendar on the Mac. I have version 10.1.2.3.0.714 desktop client, and am connecting to a CorporateTime version 5.4 server. When a meeting is created, if there is an attachment to the meeting, I cannot view the attachment. It happens on all meetings, single or recurring. This happens if I set up the attachment on a Windows or Mac client. Windows versions of Oracle Calendar/CorporateTime can see the attachments just fine, even if they are attached from a Mac client. This is happening on multiple machines, and to multiple accounts. Thoughts? My instinct tells me it's because the server is a bit out of date - the upgrade is coming soon - but I'd still like confirmation if that is the case.

When first created my rootCA I did it via Keychain Access and its Certificate Assistant, the second time around I used XCA which is a free GUI front-end to openssl.
See http://sourceforge.net/projects/xca/
I had previously looked at SimpleAuthority another similar tool but XCA was brought to my attention by a contact at Apple.
I am not sure if just changing what I used initially from Certificate Assistant was the fix or the choices I made.
I have set up templates for creating a CA, for creating a VPN server certificate, an ordinary SSL server certificate, a user certificate and also a code-signing certificate.
In terms of flags, I used the following document as a guide as what to include and indeed an interim test setup using certificates created using the StrongSwan tool also worked for Racoon and Mac and iPhone clients.
See http://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/IOS_%28Apple%29#Certificate- requirements-for-iOS-interoperability
I used those requirements as a guide when setting up the templates in XCA.
It is possible with Apple's Certificate Assistant to add SAN records but not CRL records, even with openssl doing either is normally very painful, XCA by comparison makes this extremely easy thanks to its templates.

Unfortunately - this happens with Outlook generated messages on occasion. Sometimes even Entourage can't cope. I find that the Gmail web interface does a pretty good job of dealing with messages that nearly every other email client fails with.
Equally, there are occasionally problems for Outlook users when they receive messages from Thunderbird users.
I am convinced that the problem lies in Outlook, and that there is little you can do about it.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Perhaps I am wrong.... (hint for someone else to come in with a solution).

Problem viewing attachments

Hi Everyone - I've attached a PDF as a link from my Captivate 4 course. However, when I publish and test within the browser I'm not seeing the PDF. I'm not doing the upload myself, the system admin receives the zip and uploads. The PDF is included in the zip but is there a step that I'm missing or further instruction I need to tell the system admin?
Thanks!

Apologies if I switch gears here. Your last post was helpful and may have helped to resolve the problem with .txt files. But I just returned from a meeting and the customers have refined their requirement so that users can only attach files within the Office suite - ie Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.... So .txt files will not be a problem.
However, I just encountered a problem working with an Excel file as an attachment. I have no problem returning a .docx file - it opens just fine in Word. I can also save a .pdf file and have it open fine using View. But when I attach a .xlsx file, viewing it returns a .zip file! If I click Open, it breaks the file into several directories including _rels, docProps, xl, etc.... and several .xml files. Nothing in the unzipped structure is viewable as an Excel file.
What would be causing this to happen?

What is the problem with Mail on macs? attachments specifically

I have had problems forever with mac mail and its compatibility with PCs, but never majorly, i expected it to get better as macs progressed over the years, became more mainstream etc etc, but it appears, to me atleast, to actually be worse now on my new imac with mavericks...
Now one thing with Mac Mail i have always noticed, but not quite understood is the way when attaching images etc, they appear in the message rather than as a seperate attachment to be opened or downloaded, while i can see advantages to this i have always found it a bit strange.
When sending these messages it was only a hand full of people who probably had no computer knowledge who seemed to struggle with finding/downlaoding and opening the image.
Now with the new Imac and mavericks, pretty much everyone i send an attachmed image (usually aslways a jpg) to emails me back to tell me one of the following:
a) you have not attached the image
b) can you send an image file (or jpg) please
c) can you please re-send it as an attachment rather than in the main email.
Now I work in a media office so am sending a high volume of images to a large variety of people of varying degrees of computer literacy, and whilst i cant see what they are seeing, I just cannot fathom how pretty much EVERY person i now send images to seems to have problems getting the attachment.
ive checked the 'windows friendly' option and tried to make the image appear as an icon by right clicking it to see if that helps, but needless to say it seems to make no difference.
Anyone else having these issues or know a fix?

I discovered a simple work-around that is successful (at this point in time anyways) on my IMAC/Maverick when sending attachments (not inline or embedded) to PC users.
There are several threads in here on why attachments embed in mac mail when sending to PCs, and I have had similar issues. Not sure where the fault lies, but other than purchasing an additional program to make mac mail work as other mail programs work when it comes to attachments, I found no real solution that worked for my business PC folks. I did all the right things - sent my attachments in mac mail "windows friendly," "plain text," and "attachments at the end" and still got complaints when sending to my pc workmates using Outlook. I tried another suggestion I found here - zipping the files and sending the zipped file, but my workmates did not like that either and still asked why?
By trial and error I discovered that when I attach any pdf to the email as well as the questionable jpgs, the attachments arrive in their PC inbox as attachments that can be used as needed. I don't know why this works, but it has made sending attachments a happier task for my business group.
I would be interested to see if this works for others.

Mac Client Problems

Our Mac Clients can access the Core Financials on 11i with no problems.
When they attempt to connect to iProcurement or iExpense, however, they go into a sign-in loop, acting like the passwords have expired.
We appear to have all the correct versions of OS's, Runtime for Java, etc.
Does anyone have success doing this out there ?

We have Mac users that have been using the Self-service applications (iProcurement, Internet Expense, and Self-Service Human Resources) since July of last year. We currently running version 11.5.3 of the application and 8.1.6 for the database.
If you have more specific questions let me know.

Missing Attachments in Mac Mail

Hi, I have a client who use Exchange 2007 as there mail server. The mac clients either use Mail or entourage to connect to the mail server.
The problem i am having, is usaing the Mail client, attachments will not show up on random emails. If i use OWA, an Iphone, Entourgae the attachment appears OK. The Mac has all the lastest software updates.
Has anyone else had this problem?

The problem of "invisible" attachments sounds all too familiar. I am using Apple's "Mail" program ver. 3.4.
Recently, attachments have not always been showing up when the email's file size and the Paperclip icon indicates an attachment should be present. I have found that when this happens, very often I can view the hidden attachment by either going to the File Menu and choosing "Quick Look Attachments", or by pressing the Command and Y keys simultaneously. On occasion, I have had this abnormality occur from the same sender's email account who has also sent other emails with attachments that have shown up.
If this is a known Bug, hopefully the upcoming OS X 10.5.5 update will provide a fix.

Problems viewing forms in reader - easy fix using adobe send?

My colleagues and I were having problems viewing and printing data in forms. Went to the help forums and apparently it is caused by someone filling in a .pdf form on a mac - it corrupts the file. I saw a lot of fixes suggested including a javascript for acrobat, but I only use reader, not the full acrobat, so none of them seemed to work for me.
However, I think the easiest way to fix one of these forms is to use adobe send. If I take the corrupted form and send it to an email address using adobe send instead of sending it as an email attachment, it seems to fix the form and make the data visible again. Have done it with a couple of forms now and it seems to work.
Now my question is, does anyone know why this works?

I don't think so. The problem there seems to be not being able to save the filled out form in Reader and needed to Extend features in Adobe Reader so that Reader users can save the form. This isn't quite the same.
My client can edit the form and save it. The problem seems to be needing to edit the saved and filled out form AGAIN.

Mac Client Enrollment Not Working

View attachments as icons

I have a simply question. What can i do for viewing attachments in mail as icons?
I have the same in panther and in tiger. Deactivating the preference seems haven't any effect. Can anyone help me?
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

All image type and smaller PDF attachments (1-2 pages) appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default when attached to a message which cannot be turned off.
If preferred, you can control-click on the viewed in place attachment and select View as Icon.
Regardless, such attachments are sent as true attachments to the message and depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, the attachments may appear inline or viewed in place when the message is opened (such as the Mail.app) or as attached files which must be opened separately for which we have no control over.
The preference pane you are referring to is for HTML received that contains embedded images and/or objects that must be downloaded from a remote server to be viewed and you do not want to automatically render all HTML received. This has no effect on receiving image/picture files that are attached to a message.

Problem opening files with Mac OS Mavericks and Elements

I have recently installed Mac OS 10.9.x Mavericks. Since this I have had problems opening files in Elements 11. I upgraded to Elements 12, blindly hoping the problem would fix itself, however it hasn't.   When I try to open a file the Finder window pops up then disappears immediately. Occasionally it will stay open until I scroll down but then closes.   I keep the files on an external drive but the drive is working with all other applications, so I don't think it is that. If anyone has had a similar problem and has any ideas I would be grateful as the program is unusable for now. Thanks very much in anticipation

Hi Sjmitc, I followed Barbara's instructions about only about 24 hours ago and since then my files have been opening perfectly. I tried it again before replying to you and they are still opening fine.
I did have to go through my files a couple of times to find all the Elements preferences, but the solution is working fine so far. I will let you know if I have any further problems. It is maddening when it happens, so I hope you can fix yours.
Best of Luck

Henwen, Is this solution still working for you? I tried this same solution on mine a few days ago and had no luck. However, it actually let me open files this afternoon then when I went back in later today, it was doing the disappearing act again.

Problem with attachments and antivirus.scanners

Hi!
Problem is: Sending any attachment from Tiger (10.4.8) mail, all attachments are removed by a virus scanner at receiving end:
This message was modified by F-Secure Anti-Virus E-Mail Scanning.
Tried Windows friendly, text only, repair permissions, sending under other isp etc. no help.
If this same message with same attachment is send from next mac with Panther, it is received ok.
Receiving company is big and wont alter their virus-scanners and the problem clearly lies in Tiger.
Any help welcome.
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

The subject of your message should have been "Problems with attachments and F-Secure antivirus" since this is not a problem with all antivirus software, only with F-Secure.
Check this thread for a possible temporary solution when sending attachments to those who use F-Secure.

Connect mac client to mac printer share across subnets

I need to share printers from a Mac. I need to connect
Mac clients on different subnets to the Mac shared printers. I installed
a Mac mini, connected to printers via HP JetDirect Socket (port 9100), and
shared them. I was able to print from the Mac mini, and connect Mac
clients on the same subnet to the shared printers with Bonjour and print.
I moved the Mac mini to its intended location on another subnet. I
immediately learned that Bonjour does not publish services across
subnets. I could not find documentation on how to connect to a Mac shared
printer across subnets, but I did find some third party documentation (only some incomplete
documentation from Apple) on how to implement DNS-SD Service Discovery. I
enabled DNS-SD and was able to publish the printer shares across subnets, but I
was still unable to connect to the printer shares from a Mac client. I
found some third party documentation (none from Apple) on how to manually connect to a Mac
printer share by specifying the IP address of the server, specifying the CUPS
default IPP protocol, and the print queue name. I was unable to connect
to the shared printers. I receive ping replies from my Mac mini, and port
scan reveals that port 631 for IPP, CUPS default, is open. Printer
sharing is configured so everyone can print. I am able to connect to the Mac
mini with VNC Screen Sharing. I don’t see how this can be a network
issue.
Macs don’t seem to like to connect to our Windows
shared printers because of our PaperCut software, and connecting Mac clients to
Windows printer shares and authentication is beyond the average user,
exacerbated by Macs not behaving the same as Windows when bound to an Active
Directory domain.
I called Apple support, they escalated to Apple Enterprise
support. Apple Enterprise support said they couldn’t help me beyond a
single network with no subnets, but Apple Engineering might be able to solve
the problem for $695.
Why do I need to pay $695 to learn how to connect Mac
clients to Mac shared printers, something that should be easy and intuitive and
have documentation readily available? Windows printer sharing is easy and
intuitive and documentation is readily available, and services are published
across subnets without have to implement DNS-SD.

Thank you for your reply. I followed the instructions in the sybaspot.com site and in some of the included references to set up DNS-SD. DNS-SD worked, but I couldn't connect the Mac client to the Mac shared printers.
I also found http://www.papercut.com/products/ng/manual/ch-mac-printing-10-8-9.html#ch-mac-pr inting-10-8-9-sharing-printers.
I expanded my search and found this: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13940, last modified May 8, 2014. I started work on my project February 2014. Apple Support could have told me about this document.
PH13940 says: "The computers must be on the same local network as your Mac". Apple must not consider multiple subnets one network.
PH13940 says: "Printer sharing is for printers attached directly to your Mac. You don’t need to share network printers, because they are already shared on the network."
Apple must define "network printers" as any printer with a network interface. Microsoft defines network printers as printers shared by another computer. TCP/IP ports are local ports on a Windows computer, so TCP/IP connected printers are local printers that can be shared. Multiple users on a Mac all see the same connected printers. Multiple users on Windows all see the same local printers, but network printer connections can be different for each user.
Apple must not see any value in accounting for printing and assigning the cost to the user or department. We need to account for printing and cannot have any users bypassing the system by printing directly to printers. I have created Access Control lists on the printers to limit connections to the specific IP addresses of our print servers.
The documents about setting up DNS-SD and IPP connections must have assumed USB connected printers on a Mac. The odd thing is that I was able to share a network printer from the Mac mini when the client Mac was on the same subnet. Is PH13940 wrong?

Problem viewing some webpages

Hey
Looking for some help with my macbook. I have been having problems viewing videos on youtube and i'm unsure of the problem. When i try to view a video it comes up with this message.
"Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player."
Also youtube doesn't look right. It looks like it is all in some kind of basic format with no graphics, ads, pictures etc. (Im not particularly computer savvy)
I've checked my all the settings are correct in preferences, i've updated flash player and made sure all other software is up to date and still no joy!
I had no important data on my macbook so i wiped it and reinstalled the OS and updated everything again, it still hasn't sorted the problem.
Im unsure what to do next, any ideas would be much appreciated.
PS i recently had someone's external hard drive plugged in to it, could i have got some virus from this??

Thanks for the swift reply greg.
I assumed it probably was not a virus but i thought i'd check anyway. Thats pretty much the reason i bought a mac.
I checked the preferences and JavaScript was already enabled and all other boxes checked also. It only seems to be youtube thats the problem so far although i have not been on many other websites since.
My internet connection is not particularly fast, i am using my college wifi network and it can often be very slow. I usually need to let videos load for a couple of minutes before i can watch.
I have had the Macbook for about a week and have been using it regularly. The problem only started yesterday. I also carried out all my apple updates yesterday, i'm not sure if this is what has led to the problem??

Problem: Flash update on Mac OS 10.411

A few days ago I was prompted to update Flash Player (youtube videos had suddenly stopped playing on the old version I had) and went ahead and did it. I go through the installation process and as far as I can tell nothing goes wrong. But I still can't watch videos online and the same message is always displayed "you need to update Flash, etc."
I have Mac OS 10.411 which I guess is 64-bit. I have Safari 4.1.3. I can't update Safari any further with the current OS. I can't download newer versions of Chrome or Firefox.
What I've done so far x 10:
-run the uninstaller
-run the installer ["Flash Player 10.3 for Mac OSX 10.4-10.5 (Intel)" on the installation page]
-checked http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about
to test if any older versions are still installed on the computer. Just says "missing plug-in", so I guess not.
I see under system preferences that version 10.3.183.10 is installed, which is the newest version the site gives me.
Thanks for looking at my question. Anyone know what to do?

We both have Tiger installled otherwise known as os 10.4.11, as well I have safari 4.1.3 and flash 10.1 , I believe flash 10.3 will not work with OS 10.4.11 (its for a higher version of lion or leopard or something)
Make sure box in preferences advanced tab "show Develop menu in menu bar" is checked as I mentioned before and then do a 10.1 flash download in that order, I think I read flash 10.3 is too high for safari 4.1.3 and Flash 11 is definitely too advanced for Tiger, as well Tiger can not run Firefox or Chrome as a browser, thus the need to get a version of flash that works on your OS Safari version ..hope this [email protected],   FYI: You should google the error message that pops up in quotes along with your os version for good search results of any issue.
