Safari adding .html to all attachments

I have used Safari for a couple of years now, and as of yesterday, all attachments I try to download now have a .html extension added to it,
i.e. doc.html, exe.html, jpg.html thus being unable to open the files
when they have been downloaded. I have tried downloading the same files
using AOL, and FireFox and .Mac and no problems whatever.
The attachments sitting in the e-mail just shows the .doc, or .exe or .jpg
but while downloading, Safari adds the .html extension.
Any help will surely be appreciated.

This problem began happening to me today. I tried resetting cache, closing Safari and reopening, looking for DeBug settings. Finally, after I reset Safari by choosing Safari > Reset Safari... then closed out the browser and opened it up again, the problem went away. Hope it works for you!

Safari adding .html to a downloaded file

When downloading a word or excel file, Safari adds .html to the file making it unreadable. Does anyone know why and how to fix?

As Janee says, this is usually a website issue as much as anything.
Sites are supposed to identify the type of file they are sending via a [MIME type|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internetmediatype]. Sometimes the websites are mis-configured and send the incorrect MIME type - in this case it looks like they claim an Excel documents in text/html.
Most browsers tend to ignore or override what the website tells them. Safari however is a bit more gullible.
Send feedback to the websites in question - it should be quicker for them to make a small server setting change than a fix in Safari to be released (don't forget to send feedback to Apple though: Safari menu -> Report Bugs to Apple...)

Exported Safari Bookmarks (Safari bookmarks.html) arrive in MyDocuments but not in Firefox, how to get them into Firefox Bookmarks?

Five months ago, I imported my Firefox bookmarks into Safari. In that time, I have added many bookmarks to many of the bookmark folders in Safari. Now, I am trying to import back into Firefox all of the existing Safari bookmark folders including the added bookmarks. Tried exporting from Safari using File, Export Bookmarks, which does get them into MyDocuments\Safari bookmarks.html, but I am unable to get them into Firefox where they would enable me to uninstall Safari and free up some room on my hard drive. Maybe they are there in Firefox, but need to Find them?

Did you import the HTML file?
* Bookmarks > Organize Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"
Bookmarks that you import are usually appended at the bottom of the Bookmarks Menu folder.<br />
If you do not see them there then try to use the search bar to see if they show up.<br />
If that also doesn't show them then it is likely that something went wrong with importing the bookmarks.<br />
Does that file display correctly if you open it via "File > Open File" in a Firefox tab?

All attachments opening as plain text

Apparently without any changing of settings the mail program is opening all attachments as plain text. This occurs although the program is available to open the attachment. I know the attachments can be saved to the desktop and then opened, but this causes clutter and many attachments are not worthy of saving. Any suggestions on restoring the mail program to seeking the proper application to match the attachment. I have tried searching all the menus and cannot get View>message>best alternative to be highlighted and selectable. Thank you for any suggestions.

''re: not displaying any incoming messages with html.''
Do you have this setting ?
'View' > 'Message Body as ' > 'Original HTML'
BTW - you may prefer to see all the toolbars. They can be enabled - see image below.

Adding HTML code corrupts (and destroys) site

I was informed by Apple support that iWeb does not support adding HTML to your page (even though I did so in the Forms widget), and that the code corrupted my page (causing all kinds of font issues, blurry images, and wacky layout errors). They said I would have to rebuild the page from scratch (I have already spent hours building an intensive website that is now useless). I am skeptical that all these iWeb problems (font changes, wrong colors, layout chaos, blurry fonts, etc.) are caused by HTML code, so if anyone has any more info I would appreciate it. I am ready to throw iWeb in the garbage and go back to Dreamweaver MX!!! Thanks.

not totally comfortable posting links to the site (its a business site and not mine)... if you search around for iWeb problems you will find many people having the same issues... when i tried fixing my original page (after deleting the page with the problematic code) the problems still occurred... when i redid the page completely the problems stopped happening (at least for now)... I was told by the Applecare person that the code had completely infested/corrupted the entire site and that it could not be fixed... that I would have to completely recreate the site again... what doesn't make sense is that such a glaring, fundamental problem on such a basic program goes ignored by such a powerful, inventive, flourishing company... disappointing to see all the issues/bugs that get officially ignored on these forums...

OSX - When I 'save all' attachments the resultant file name has %20 instead of spaces.

When I choose save all attachments from an Email the attachments are saved in the required directory but all files that have a space in the filename end up with a %20 instead of the space.
eg. attachment received "My new file.pdf" becomes "My%20new%20file.pdf" when saved into a directory.
This does not happen when I save each file individually. Which is my current workaround.
Any thoughts on how to solve this?
Running Thunderbird 31.2.0 with Exquilla
I just checked whether it is something to do with Exquilla/Exchange. The problem I am seeing is with Emails to an Exchange account. I just forwarded an Email to another of my Email accounts and when I did 'save all' on the received attachments they saved without the %20. Which gives me another work around but...

I might be able to experiment with this a little.
Are you running a recent version of Outlook Web App (i.e., Exchange 2010)?
When you save files using IE, what format are they in (e.g., EML, RTF, HTML)?

How can I open all attachments in mail at once?

I use Mail to collect messages from the IMAP server rather than logging in through my university's webmail interface. I often get mail messages with many attachments that all need to be opened at once (example: an admissions application that has 7 or 8 components for me to review). Clicking on each of them separately is a pain, particularly since I have repetitive strain issues, and the various applications needed to open the attachments (Word and Adobe Reader for example) want to grab focus after every click, forcing me to keep switching programs.
Is there any way I can tell Mail to just open all attachments to a message at once?

Try:
Select the attachments you want to open. (Use click, shift click, command click, as usual.) Control-click on (one of) the selected attachments. Then select "Open Selected Attachments".

When I go into my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages. 26 may show on the screen but it says I have 32. However, at the bottom right it appears as if all the messages are showing and the arrow to get more is not highlighted.

When I go to my email account through Safari, I cannot see all of my messages. It says there are 34 but I can only see 26. However, at the bottom right the arrows to go to the next screen are not highlighted? I also cannot scroll any further down. Does anyone know how to scroll down to see all of my messages? I use Travel-net Communications as my email provider (Ottawa, On, Canada).

hey ,
if it is showing you 34 mails them it is correct. when you see your mail. apple has a smart way of arranging your mail.suppose you recieve 4 mails from one email id it will show you under one highlighted mail. so when you open a mail from anyone trying scrolling it down and you will find your missing mails.

How do I create a pdf portfolio from multiple .msg email files including all attachments in a single step process?

I have tried creating the portfolio from Outlook directly, but only the first email is viewable in the portfolio including a hyperlink to the attachment (but the attachment is missing otherwise). This seems to be a setting issue, but I have had no luck with finding any setting options to change this.
I have also tried to create a portfolio from my desktop but when opening the portfolio, nothing shows up as if it didn't take the .msg files.
The obvious option of creating a pdf from each individual email and combining it with the pdf attachment would take forever and is unrealistic as the emails are in thousands.
Thanks for your time and help on this issue!

Hey Bob%20Sacks,
Could you please specify what version of Acrobat are you using.
You can go to Preferences under Adobe PDF option in the menu bar and choose 'Include all attachments' option under Attachments label.
Then, select the desired messages in Outlook and create a PDF portfolio by right-clicking and choosing Convert to Adobe PDF option from the context menu.
Now, open the portfolio and it will appear as shown in the screenshot below:
You can view all your files by clicking on the navigation arrows on the left-hand side.

XI: Mail - XI - File, all attachments in folder

Hello Group!
I am working on the following scenario: Mail -> XI -> File (XI NW2004 SP19)
The mail adapter picks up the mails form the mail server and the file adapter should save the files to an existing folder. Basically the adapter works fine, but I have problems with attachments. The file adapter only save one file (the mail) to the folder. The attachments won´t be saved to the destination.
Then I found the Module PayloadZipBean (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/45/da9358a1772e97e10000000a155369/frameset.htm). In the monitoring I can see all attachments in the payload. So I tried this module to zip all payload contents (as described in: /people/stefan.grube/blog/2007/02/20/working-with-the-payloadzipbean-module-of-the-xi-adapter-framework).
But it doesn´t work. No zip file will be created. Do I have to install the PayloadZipBean?
My settings:
Reg. Parameter:
Transport Protocoll: NFS
Message Protocoll: File
Adapter Engine: Integration Server
File name scheme: example.zip (it just works with .dat - but then only the mail)
File construction mode: Add Counter
Write mode: Directly
File Type: binary
Reg. Module:
Nr____Module Name________________Type___________________Module Key
1 - - - - AF_Modules/PayloadZipBean - - Local Enterprise Bean - - - - 1
2 - - - - CallSapAdapter - - - - - - - - - - - - Local Enterprise Bean - - - - 0
Module Key__Parameter Name__Parameter Value
1 - - - - - - - - - zip.filenameKey - - contentType
1 - - - - - - - - - zip.mode - - - - - - - zipAll
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Martin

Hi Stefan!
Hi Group!
Now the PayloadZipBean works. The reason was, that I try to use variable substition. Without this, it works.
But unfortunatelly, I need the variable substition. The name of the zip or of the target folder should have the name of the mail subject.
In your great blog
/people/stefan.grube/blog/2007/02/20/working-with-the-payloadzipbean-module-of-the-xi-adapter-framework
you use no variable substitution. Do you know how to handle it?
When I use the variable substitution, the following error appears:
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: Error during variable substitution:
com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException:
Caught SAXException while parsing XML payload: Fatal Error: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser:
No data allowed here: (hex) 50, 4b, 3(:main:, row:1, col:3)</
Settings of variable substituion:
File name scheme: %subject%.zip
Variable substitution: subject = payload:Mail,1,Subject,1
(this works without the PayloadZipBean)
In my opinion, the reason is the order of module and adapter.
At first, the module PayloadZipBean starts to zip all payloads in one zip. Then the file adapter starts and tries to use the variable substitution. But then there is no access to the first payload anymore --> error.
Does you or somebody else know, how to handle this?
Maybe there is a better solution without the PayloadZipBean. I just want to save all mail attachments to a file system with the name of the mail subject. Unfortunately with the file adapter only the first payload will be saved to the file system - maybe there is a better solution.
Thanks,
Martin

All attachments now blue boxes with question marks

Something happened over the weekend to Apple Mail on my laptop... ALL attachments now just show up as funky little blue boxes the question marks. Instead of showing me a JPEG, PNG, or PDF inline in the message, it's just a little blue box. If it's an XLS file, for example, it doesn't show me the file name inline, it's just a funky little blue box. This is true for BOTH incoming and outgoing messages. If I create a message and attach a PNG screenshot that I just took, I can't see the image in the message, all I see is a funky little blue box. For the incoming messages, these images that I can't see are not linked to an external server, they're attached images.
Here are two screenshot examples:
http://johnhmoore.com/AppleMail1.png
http://johnhmoore.com/AppleMail2.png
In both cases, I should be able to SEE the images.
I'm in Apple Mail 3.2 (919/919.2) on OS 10.5.2 on a MacBook.
Thanks,
John

I'm having the same issue and came across this page while searching for solutions.
What really bothers me is that the attachments are there I just can't see them!
i found this older discussion that mentions the same basic issue. Just thought I'd post it on the offchance it could help. (I haven't figured out how to find my plist so it doesn't help me much.)

My safari isn't open all the winndow

my safari isn't open all the address

If you can't see the Address Bar click View from the Safari menu bar then click Customize Toolbar from the drop down menu.
If Safari isn't opening windows, go to the Safari menu bar click Safari > Empty Cache. Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, back to the menu bar click Safari > Reset Safari. Select the top 5 boxes, click Reset. Try again.

Safari still shuts down all internet...

Safari still shuts down all internet access when browsing abcnews.com and cbsnews.com at random times. Mail stops connecting, safari just hangs... Good thing that turning off Airport then back on again trick works everytime. So if anyone is getting this scenario, just quit all internet related apps and quit Airport and turn it back on, it should work again.

I would suggest you to upgrade/reflash the firmware of the router.Reset the router for 45 seconds and reconfigure it from the scratch.Download the firmware from www.linksys.com/downloads,enter the model no in the search box and choose the correct version number...download the firmware and save it on the desktop.Login into the linksys setup page and click on Administration tab to upgrade the firmware.

Download all attachments

It appears that the "download all attachments" button from owa 2010 has been removed in 2013... Is this on purpose? Or will it be coming back in a patch? I have very frustrated users that are annoyed by the functionality in 2013 vs. 2010. Anyone
in the know have any idea on this? Thanks!

Yep you are right.
Its not there anymore. This feature became available with Exchange 2010 SP1.
However, its removed from Exchange 2013. Maybe someone forgot it :) . Hopefully it will become available again with future updates.
