Removing Message Attachments

So mail.app has been playing up. It starts going slowly, slows the whole system down, wont quit unless force quit. I've read some of the other threads on mail not quitting by my Activity window has "Removing message attachments". If I stop this process mail then quits.
I've turn on the Activity window just after mail.app loads. It does the normal synching you would expect and the this message attachments one pops up. It's been going now for approx 20 mins but what attachments is it removing and why?
Thanks,
Adam

Hi Ernie,
I have one MobileMe account and one IMAP account. Sorry I should have made clear that I've never asked mail to remove any message attachments.
After doing some tests the initial Remove message attachments message comes up but then does go away again. Leaving the Activity window open this periodically comes back and does it's thing (anywhere between a few seconds and 20+ minutes) and goes again. Some times it doesn't go and that is when there is a noticeable decrease in performance. I click the stop button, it stops and things are better.
When quitting it always comes up and never goes - I've left it running for over an hour but I think that is a little too long for it do to whatever it is it is doing.
The only thing I can think of that I did around the time I noticed this was to move the bulk of my mail out of the IMAP folders into local folders but without requesting an attachment removal I don't see how that would have prompted it.
Thanks,
Adam

How do I stop Mail from removing messages from my Gmail server?

I have checked several of the posts in here already and do not seem to be able to find an answer to my question. In the version of Mail on Tiger, on the Account preferences pane and the advanced tab, there is an option check box to Remove Message after retrieving from server (or something like that) In the version of mail in Snow Leopard, that option is no longer on the Advanced tab and I can't find it anywhere. I deleted my Gmail account and re-added it to see if I missed it somewhere in the process.
Thanks in advance for any help!

Thanks for your reply! That answers my question, but creates another. How do you setup a POP3 account? If I click on the add account button and put in my Gmail credentials, it automatically sets up as IMAP. I am not even given the option to setup as POP3.
Thanks!

Message attachments not restoring on new device

I just upgraded to an iPhone 6 from an iPhone 5, and everything was updated and restored as expected, except for any photos or attachments in my text messages/iMessages that aren't photos saved in my albums. I've tried backing up my iPhone 5 multiple times to try restoring to the iPhone 6, but I get the same results.
Every other upgrade I've done, the message attachments transfer without a problem.

I had checked that setting before, and it was set to "Forever". Anyway, the problem was occurring on text messaged images that I had received the same day I had backed up and restored, so I don't think it's quite related to that setting.
For now, I've moved on and I can do without retrieving all the messaged images and attachments I've received. Simply for the fact that I've already accumulated more and I want to actually use my phone and not waste more hours time troubleshooting. But, this topic can should stay active if it can help anyone else experiencing this problem.

Error in java code for removing messages from a Topic

Trying to write a code using oracle.jms package to remove messages from Topic. I have a similar code with javax.jms package for removing messages from Queue and it is working well. Whereas i have written this new code for removing messages from topic using oracle.jms package as methods like CreateBrowser and CreateTopicReceiver for topic are provided in oracle package only and can't be used from javax.jms package.
Error i am getting is JMS-126: Invalid Topic specified at
         receiverTopic   = (Topic) ctx.lookup(((String)receiverProps.get( "Q_NAME")).trim() );
         System.out.println ("receiverTopic is[" + receiverTopic + "]");
         MBeanHome home = (MBeanHome) Helper.getAdminMBeanHome("username","pwd","url:port");
         ((AQjmsSession)topicSession).grantSystemPrivilege("MANAGE_ANY", "SA", true);
         for(Iterator i = home.getMBeansByType("JMSTopic").iterator();i.hasNext(); )
          WebLogicMBean wmb = (WebLogicMBean)i.next();
          System.out.println("topic name found: " + wmb.getName());
            topicBrowser   = ((AQjmsSession) topicSession).createBrowser(receiverTopic, "Edin");topic handle which i am receiving in receiverTopic is same as what i am expecting but still it says Invalid topic specified on createBrowser method. Anyone who can help me to write this type of code, please reply. If anyone has ready code for this situation, please reply with the same as i am working on a prodcution system and we are in serious situation to resolve this problem.

Hi,
I am afraid this is impossible. You need to find another solution like a filtering queue. Your messages can be sent to a queue that is monitored by let say a MDB. This MDB will maintain a map of title and only forward once a given title/message to your topic.
Hope it helps.

How to remove file attachments using the SDK

I am looking for ways to programmatically remove file attachments from work items. If I recall correctly, the system only keeps the file for as long as the relationship exists, so that, in theory, the file is deleted from the database a soon as the
relationship is removed.
I found this
Using the SDK to Create and Edit Objects and Relationships Using Type Projections
Is this the only way or are the other, simpler ways for deleting relationships and/or file attachments?
Is this something I could do with the Orchestrator Remove Relationship activity?
A little background on this question: I have multiple different teams with varying data retention requirements for Service Requests. My longest requirement is 3 years (audit) while most teams only require 90 days. I was looking to add in some
jobs for some more aggressive file attachment grooming to keep the database smaller.
Thanks.

The relationship is defined as a membership/containment relationship. So, yes, if you delete the relationship, the file attachment (and the associated blob) are deleted as well.
Based on the background you described, I'm assuming you identify a bunch of work orders whose files you want to delete if they're older than X. So, for instance "Work Items with Y team; delete file attachments older than 90 days", "Work Items
with Q team; delete file attachments older than 3 years". Is that right?
If so, you don't necessarily need to delete relationships specifically...you can simply delete the file attachment objects which will delete the relationship, the file attachment object, and the associated blob (the file itself in the database).
Using the SDK, you will not need type projections for this. You'll only need the work item object(s) (an incident or service request or whatever), the GetRelatedObjects<>() method, and an IncrementalDiscoveryData object.
So, after you get all of the appropriate work items, you can use the following snippet to delete their file attachments if the attachments meet your age requirements
//Connect to the management group
String strMySCSMServer = "<my mgmt server>";
emg = new EnterpriseManagementGroup(strMySCSMServer);
IncrementalDiscoveryData idd = new IncrementalDiscoveryData();
ManagementPackRelationship relWorkItemHasFileAttachment = emg.EntityTypes.GetRelationshipClass(new Guid("AA8C26DC-3A12-5F88-D9C7-753E5A8A55B4")); //System.WorkItemHasFileAttachment
//Get the work item's related file attachments using it's Id
Guid myWorkItemGuid = new Guid("<some work item guid>");
IList<EnterpriseManagementObject> lstFileAttachments = emg.EntityObjects.GetRelatedObjects<EnterpriseManagementObject>(myWorkItemGuid, relWorkItemHasFileAttachment, TraversalDepth.OneLevel, ObjectQueryOptions.Default);
//Loop through each file attachment
foreach (EnterpriseManagementObject emoFile in lstFileAttachments)
//Determine its age
DateTime AddedDate = (DateTime)emoFile[null, "AddedDate"].Value;
TimeSpan FileAttachmentAge = AddedDate.Subtract(DateTime.Now);
//Prep the file attachment for deletion if it's old enough, in this example, older than 90 days
if (FileAttachmentAge.Days > 90)
idd.Remove(emoFile);
//Submit the deletions to the database.
idd.Commit(emg);

How can I automatically open Mail.app message attachments after downloading

The subject says it all, I think.
My wish #1
Automatically Opening Mail.app message attachments after downloading
My Wish #2
At least having the Finder automatically default to the folder I just downloaded to after completing the download.
Is this an option in Leopard, at least?

Very clever. But unfortunately that doesn't seem to work in Tiger.
Then again, I stil presume that when you do that, a ile is still downloaded and appears somewhere on your hard drive. If you "save as" the file opened by preview, you probably still need to go back to the place where the file was saved and delete it.
Then again again, if Preview is peeking into a Word or Excel attachment, it may not actually be "downloading it" first?? Strange. If it was a jpg file attachment, on the other hand, it seems more likely that some sort of file would be downloaded to the hard drive as a result of that drag and drop of the paper clip.
I did find that drag and drop capability interesting, though. Even in Tiger.
Oh well. I have to start looking at scripts.
When I downloaded that Automator application that was supposed to "close all open applications", I was surprised that it didn't work. Says it works with TIger. ???
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/automator/
Was I supposed to import it into Automator as an "action" and save it as an Automator application and then open Automator and click "run" for that action each time I wanted to use it? Seams a bit cumbersome.

Remove Message Size Restriction

Hello,
Please suggest a powershell to achieve below two tasks for bulk mailboxes (in .csv), NOT for individual mailbox;
1) To apply Message Size Restriction
2) To remove Message Size Restriction, so it will utilize default
Thanks

Hi,
I edit Johnpaul’s command to set message size limits not quotas.
To apply Message Size Restriction
Import-Csv "C:\temp\users.csv" | Foreach-object {Set-Mailbox -Identity $_.name -MaxReceiveSize 1GB –MaxSendSize 2GB}
To remove Message Size Restriction, we just set the value to unlimited.
Import-Csv "C:\temp\users.csv" | Foreach-object {Set-Mailbox -Identity $_.name -MaxReceiveSize unlimited–MaxSendSize unlimited}
By the way, message size limit can be set on the following levels:
Organizational Level
Send Connector
Receive Connector
AD Site Links
Routing Group Connectors
Individual
The path evaluated is as follows: User Send Limit > Receive Connector > Organization Checks > Send Connector > User Receive Limit

How can i remove messages from faces context

hi
how can i remove messages from faces context
with regards
shannu sarma

I'm also looking to find a way to remove message/s from FacesContext, and so far I've not been able to do this.
The issues described below (if you have the patience to understand it) may uncover some JSF issues when combining different functionalities in JSF to come up with a solution.
I have a requirement to display (let's just say error) messages in a message board. I do this in 2 steps: field-level validations are done first, and if all corrected (by the user), I do multi-field-level as well as business logic validation after model update (the way JSF seems to be designed to handle different types of validations). Let's say I have a combination of 3 combo-boxes that are dependent on one another. Selection from (1) requires dynamically filtering and setting a list for two and that in turn requires dynamically filtering and setting a list for 3, so the first two have valueChangeListener (try doing this in JSF!!!, I had to hack my way through to set this up with JSF, but that is not the issue). I have business rules associated with items within combo (1) and other entry fields entered by users (i.e. for simplicity let's just say, if material 'chain' is selected from combo 1, I should set combo (2) and (3), and validate that user entered at least four in # used entry field). Let's say I have a table with many rows of above combination of combo-boxes specified. Again for simplicity, assume we only have business rule violations (not field-level that would not go through model update):
* User selects many combination of entried before submit (with no field-level error)
* Business rules are checked and messages added to FacesContext and displayed in a message board
* Next, all these messages disappear from the view when selecting any item from any combo-box (with valueChangeListeners attached to them) - 2 reasons: 1. a new FacesContext is created per valueChangeEvent 2. Business model update does not happen (so we don't generate these messages again and add them to FacesContext, it is not efficient to do so anyways)
* we would like to display all those business logic validation messages so the user could correct them all (and not lose them by any combo-box selection)
* As a workaround, I add these messages to session (which is another issue, since FacesMessages are not serializable) at the end of business logic validation, and retrieve and display them by (a.) forcing combo-boxes go through (field-level) validation, (b.) adding a new hidden field at the end of all fields in JSP page with a custom-validator that all it does is to get messages saved to session (from the last business logic validation) and add them to the FacesContext - this ensures that messages are not lost due to combo-box selections
* The problem is that when user submits (to validate the business rules again), since the old Business validations messages are added to FacesContext at the end of field-level validation, I need to clear them, before adding the newly generated messages
* But....I can't remove messages from FacesContext
So here's a reason for this 'needed' functionality, based on whatever is available (as of JSF 1.1.01). Is there a better way to this, I'll be delighted to hear it (as I have tried different solutions myself with above combination of issuses), and have wasted some time trying to work-around the issues I've faced using JSF (in every one of those ways I've tried) ....part of which is described here...
Thanks...

Device Removal message for internal hard drive after coming out of sleep

Hi,
I have search the forums and all the info I can find seems to just refer to external hard drives, how ever the problem I am having is with the internal drive.
When my G5 comes out of sleep mode, shortly after, I get a Device Removal error message then I loose my second drives and have to reboot for them to return. The drive is a 500 GB divided in two partitions, Mac OS Extended (Journaled), in slot B.
I have used Disk Utility and Tech Tools to check the drive, and the drive passes with no errors. I can't check file permissions as the drive is not a start-up drive.
This problem just started not long after using a USB thumb drive in the front, maybe just a coincidence or something went haywire after ejecting the USB drive?
Thanks,
Bill...

What brand is the drive?
Do you have a USB hub to try?
Have you checked the disk manufacturer's website to see if there are any updated drivers or firmware available and/or needed?

I have two Western Digital drives in the computer, both partitioned into two drives. One is a 1 TB the other a 500 GB. The 1 TB drive is the boot drive and I installed it about 2 months ago. The 500 GB drive, the one that is disappearing, I installed it about 6 months ago. Both drives pass Disk Utility, and TechTools testing (that is before the one disappears).
I do not have a USB hub, I have a DVD/RW connected via Firewire, and I have a USB external 320 GB to use for whatever.
No, I didn't think to check the manufacturer's web site for updates as the drives work fine, just the one 500 MB drive out of the blue I get the Device Removal message. And I am using the G5 at this moment replying here, and so far today I have connected my camera via usb with out issues.

"Recovery Partition has been Removed" Message in Recovery Media Creation

"Recovery Partition has been Removed" Message in Recovery Media Creation.
i bought My new HP pavilion G4 laptop just two days ago and didnt change any thing in two Drives named Drive C: for windows and D: for HP Recovery.
now i want to Make a Recovery Disk with HP Recovery Manager Software.
but it show a Massage: "Recovery Partition has been Removed" in Recovery Media Creation Section.
in My Computer Recovery Partition is Almost Full (3.26G of 25.5G is Free) . so i think Recovery files present there .
i haven't any Access to HP for Buy recovery disk or Call Support.
Thanks
This question was solved.
View Solution.

I don't know why your PC is saying your partition is gone - you're right, it doesn't look gone. I do know that if you use the Support Assistant to make backup copies of your Recovery Disks and Then instruct it to remove the recovery partition to give you more space on the hard drive, it will delete the HP factory image of Windows 8 from the recovery partition and leave the normal Windows repair tools behind.
There are tools however that allow you to create your own recovery partition complete with these Windows repair tools and a new image of your instalation so you can restore from that. You could use this tool: Windows 7/8 - OEM Recovery Partition Creator found here: http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/21978-Windows-7-8-OEM-Recovery-Partition-Creator but thats a lot of work and it would be faster and easier just to backup your data and restore from your HP recovery disks you made from Support Assistant. If you didn't make the disks, HP may opt to send you a copy.. they do not normally do this but I have read that some people have good luck getting a free copy of the media from HP.. otherwise they want you to buy the recovery disks ($40.00) . I suppose it depends on the exact circunstances of your situation.
Another solution is to use Macrium Reflect Free Edition to ghost or clone your system. You can then restore your whole system even with your custom programs installed, to the exact state it was in when you made the backup image. ( this may take several dvd's) I suggest you go this route because restoring your system with Macrium Reflect is Much faster than restoring from the HP Recovery Disks. Even if you do obtain another copy of the Recovery Disks, you should use this tool to make another backup that you can customize to your liking. Your re-installs will be faster, they will already have your chosen software installed, and you will save wear and tear on your HP Recovery Disks. You can then safely delete the recovery partition to gain back that space on your hard drive (since you cannot access it anyway, you won't need that space being taken up). BUT.. you cannot restore from UEFI Mode which is what HP ships with. You have to go into your Bios settings, and switch to Legacy Bios mode, (which disables Secure Boot) FIRST or else the Macruim recovery boot disk will not load to install the recovery image. After the system re-installs you can go back into bios settings and disable Legacy bios and re-enable secure Boot if you like. ( Windows 8 will load in both UEFI mode with secure boot enabled or Legacy bios mode.. it's your choice. UEFI mode will load faster but it will cause problems if you want to dual boot the system with another OS) Hope this helps.

Removing messages in mapping

Hi, I'm trying to remove blank messages using a multimapping.
The source and target messages are the same: MT_A -- > MT_A
Source:
<MT_A>
    <id>1</id>
</MT_A>
<MT_A>
    <id>2</id>
    <telephone>1</telephone>
</MT_A>
Target.
I want to remove message with id 1 as that message doesn't have the telephone tag.
<MT_A>
    <id>2</id>
    <telephone>1</telephone>
</MT_A>
I've tried validating the telephone tag and removing the context from telephone tag and validating it does exit, but all I get is the first message with id 1. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Hi,
    I have executed your mapping, You need to change the context to root as you are checking based on the MT_A. Even it works without using <customer> in middle.
Source:
<MT_A>     <id>1</id>
</MT_A>
<MT_A>
    <id>2</id>
    <telephone>1</telephone>
</MT_A>
Target.
<MT_A>
    <id>2</id>
    <telephone>1</telephone>
</MT_A>
Mapping:
telephone->exists->removecontext-> IfWithoutElse(True) -> (Source)MT_A->(target) MT_A->
remaining elements id and telephone direct mapping, This resolves your issue.

Prasanna

A8-50 - Keep getting sd card unexpectedly removed messages...

Hi all,
I have an A8-50 running 4.2.2 (and it is rooted). At one point, I did install the Paragon exFAT app but have since removed it from the system.
I randomly get 'card unexpectedly removed' messages for a 32GB Sandisk Ultra SDHC FAT32 fromat card. The only way to fix is to remove and re-insert the card, and then everything is OK for a while - until it happens again. This card has been working fine in Nook HD device.
Has anyone else encountered this issue? I just wonder if this is a known bug - fixed in later firmware releases? I am trying to avoid upgrading unless I really need to - as I know there is no ROOT solution at this point for 4.4.2
Thanks in advance for any help.

Try breezex post. it is great advice.
Sometimes the sd card is locked which if you take the micro sd out and put it in a sd reader slieve make sure the write enable on the adapter is set to on. Then try to format it again. It should show up as an external drive right click on it select format. Most phones cannot be formatted othere than Fat 32 or NTFS but it will choose on its own. see this link.

Mac Mail Always Removing Messages from Hotmail

I have a Hotmail account that dates back to 2005 and I have recently bought a new Macbook Pro and Mountain Lion. It took about 2 days to download all my messages into Mail.
The problem is that my Mail started to get delayed coming through and then stop occasionaly with a Port 995 error.
If I check the activity window I can see the potential problem but I don't know how to solve it:
The activity window says 'Fetching new mail' and underneath this it says 'Removing message x of 43,583' (x being the message number being removed)
I use my laptop pretty much all day, but somewhere along the line the process restarts and so it never finishes to remove the messages and this is obviously holding up the server.
Would anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks

Having monitored the situation, it appears to be a software issue. There is in infinite loop with removing messages from the server. I found it completes the removal and then begins again holding up the server.
Every time it completes the 'removal' my new messages are downloaded. After this the 'removal process' beings again in the activity window!

Why are my message attachments now represented by question marks? They appear in the conversations and details like this on my iPad but are there on my iPhone.

Since running the battery right down on my iPad, software up to date, my message attachments appear as question marks in both the conversations and details. They are still there on my phone. How can I fix this please? I've reset networks. Turned messaging off and back on. Turned the iPad off and back on.
