Save copy of emails to dvd

I wish to burn a copy of all my "documents" in my email on a dvd for back up. Can you tell me where to go on the hard drive to find the file they are located in?

Yes, if making a backup copy of all your mail is what you want, that folder is the only thing you need to care about. Note, however, that all your account settings are stored separately in the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist file, so you may want to back up that file as well.

  • Cannot copy file from backup DVD to HD folder

    Whenever I finish a project, I had burn the various files (movie, text, pictures, pages, etc.) onto DVDs to free up hard disk space for present projects. Usually, I would use a disk image to burn those DVDs. Recently, I needed material from those DVDs and I found that I could not copy them from the DVD to my work folders on my hard disk by dragging them from the DVD window to another open window. I could only do it the roundabout way of opening those files individually using the programmes (like pages, iPhoto, etc) and then use the 'Save As ...' option in the File Menu. It was a huge hassle. I then looked into my other DVDs and found that they were the same way. I find DVDs easier to manage. Is it because I am using disk images or is there something wrong in the way I burn the DVDs. Please advise

    When I try to move the files from the Finder Window with the files on the DVD, I do not get the plus sign when I try to drag it to the desktop or any other window. Even when I try with the option key pressed, there is no plus sign with the mouse arrow. Someone suggested to use the terminal and I did. It was a hassle, though.

  • How can I copy an email address from the form results while online?

    Our form contains a field where the users submitted their email address.  But I am not able to mouse over this data in the "View Responses" tab, and copy the email address by selecting the email address and Ctrl C, and neither can I right-click this data field and copy it.
    Our organization just switched to Microsoft Office 365, and "mailto" links on web pages can no longer be clicked to launch a native desktop email client program.  So the users tasked with responding to forms submitted via Formscentral now have a much harder workflow.  They are compelled to download the data as a spreadsheet, just to be able to cut and paste an email address into their reply email.
    I suggest and request that the Flash-based "View Responses" tab be modified to allow email addresses to be selectable and able to be  copied to the "clip board".  This would allow users who can't execute a clickable mailto link to copy and paste the email address from Formscentral into a new email.  Many organizations like mine are moving away from native client-based email programs like Outlook to save money,  in favor of cloud based SAS web-based email like Office 365.
    Is there some other way to enable mailto links where no client email program is installed on the users PC?
    Thanks,
    -Dave Bartholomew

    While I am still looking for a better answer, I've discovered a way to cut and paste email addresses from the FormsCentral "View Responses" dashboard.  I wrote up the instructions to help our users and thought I'd share them in this forum as well.
    But it would be nice if there was a simpler solution...  Can anyone offer a better way?

    ) Right-click on the email address
    ) Select “Filter by: …”  Doing this will change the view to show only entries that were sent from the selected email address.
    ) And it will display the Filter in the header of the form.
    ) Left-click on the email address displayed in the filtered results, in the header of the form.
    ) A new sub-form will appear, and the email address can be cut and pasted from this new sub-form.  Highlight the email address and hit “Ctrl C”, or right-click and select copy.
    ) Now you can paste the email address into a new email in Office 365. (Ctrl V) or right-click and select “Paste”
    ) Click the “Clear” button and then “OK” to exit the filtered view of the data.

  • I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.

    I'm looking for an app that will allow me to upload my contracts and forms to my iPad, fill in a customer's personal information, sign them, save them and email them.  I looked at easySign, Filemaker, FM Touch, Sign Docs, Zosh, Exzact, Mi-Co

    FormConnect (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/formconnect/id432653695?mt=8&ls=1) can handle the filling out, signing, saving and emailing the contracts/forms but uploading the contract and the form is going to be a challenge because you’re dealing with paper documents that have to be scanned.  If you can convert the scanned documents into an OCR program, you might be able to copy and paste the contract without having to retype it but the form itself is probably going to have to be recreated.  Alternatively, you could use a document annotation program such as iAnnotate and mark up the contract with ink.

  • Over-riding automatic save/copy of "sent" e-mail ??

    Is there any way to over-ride (for a single message) the automatic save/copy of "sent" e-mail ?? ie there are occasions when I DON'T want to keep a copy.....

    As far as I'm aware, you can choose to either save a copy or not.
    This is set up in your Account Settings> copies & folders for the mail account.
    I'm not aware of any method that lets you preselect to not save a particular email. Other than changing the Account Settings prior to creating the email and then resetting them again after sending.
    The only option would be to save all as auto and delete what you do not want.

    Advisor [5:02 p.m.]:
    Unfortunately, audiobooks and ringtones are the only items on the iTunes store unavailable for re-download through iTunes in the Cloud. What I can go ahead and do is try and re-add these audiobooks back to your download queue for re-download. Please note if they have been removed or modified on the iTunes store they may not be available for re-download. Would this be okay?
    Customer [5:03 p.m.]:
    yes thank you!
    Advisor [5:03 p.m.]:
    Excellent, one moment please.
    Advisor [5:05 p.m.]:
    I apologize but after reviewing your account, it looks like we have already issued 3 exceptions for you to re-download your audiobooks in the past. Back on 02/23/2013. I apologize but we will be unable to do another exception for you. 
    Customer [5:06 p.m.]:
    that down load did include the new books of the bible that I had.
    Customer [5:07 p.m.]:
    that down load did not have the new testament books of the bible that I had
    Advisor [5:07 p.m.]:
    While reviewing the notes, this was issued to add all available audiobooks bought on your account. I again apologize but I will be unable to issue another exception to you. As the previous advisor did inform you to make sure to back up your files.
    Customer [5:08 p.m.]:
    the other advisor did not down load the new testament books. The advisor did not restore all of the books that I had originally brought.
    Advisor [5:10 p.m.]:
    While looking closer, the books that you are missing are no longer available to be re-downloaded. This is the reason why they were not added back to your download queue when he issued them. Unfortunately, as we do not handle the content on the iTunes store you will need to get in contact with the publisher of the content as they were the ones two remove or modify these books on the iTunes store. If you would like I can provide a link to their support site.
    Customer [5:11 p.m.]:
    yes they are I saw them.
    Advisor [5:11 p.m.]:
    They may have been modified by the content owner. This will be the reason why they were not added. As Apple does not control 3rd party content on the iTunes store. You will need to get in contact with them as we are unable to re-add this content back to your download queue.
    Customer [5:12 p.m.]:
    it is I just looked at it in the itunes store
    Customer [5:13 p.m.]:
    the material is still the same. The store does have it.
    Advisor [5:13 p.m.]:
    Machelle, if the items have been modified since you bought them, they will be unavailable for us to issue them back to you. You will need to get in contact with the providers for these books as they are the content owners and we do not have access to issue these back to you.
    Customer [5:14 p.m.]:
    the are still the same bible books that I purchased at the store.
    Customer [5:14 p.m.]:
    The audio books are the same. When I buy it again nothing will be different.
    Advisor [5:14 p.m.]:
    Machelle, I understand this. This is what our records are showing. When the previous advisor tried to re-issue them to you they were unable to as they have been modified on the iTunes store.
    Advisor [5:15 p.m.]:
    In order to receive further support for this issue you will need to get in contact with Media Group as they are the content providers for these audiobooks.
    Customer [5:15 p.m.]:
    I will buy them from another source. Don't say they have changed. The books are the same books I brought. They are at the store.
    Advisor [5:16 p.m.]:
    Machelle, Apple does not handle the content for 3rd party publishers on the iTune

    You can use whatever tool you prefer - for someone already using emacs, emacs is a natural choice. Simple, easy to use online tools exist e.g. http://schneegans.de/sv/

  • How do I save photos from email to the photo library?

    How do I save photos from email to the photo library? I've seen an online demo of users that hold their finger or thumb over the image for a few seconds and a "save photo" window option appears. That doesn't work on my 6-month old iphone. It's version 1.1.4 (4a102) ???? Help! Anybody with an answer?

    Never mind. I figured out the 2.0 update. My system wasn't updating I-tunes...and the I-phone update option window was hidden behind some other system information. I figured it out. The download, install and re-synch took about an hour. Lots of horror stories out there about people trying to activate their new I-phones. Glad this worked for me!

  • Make copy of Snow Leopard DVD

    Ok, so this question might be a little out of scope for these forums, but its worth a shot.  I ordered my Snow Leopard update the other day, popped it in my macbook and tried to update.  I got through the first couple of steps, then it said installing... (or something similar).  The DVD drive mad a few weird sounds for about 10 minutes, all while the install status meter never moved. After the 10 minutes or so, I forget the exact message but it said something along the lines of it cannot read from the disc.  Eject, clean it and try again.  Which I did, but got the same message.  I looked at the disc, and it did not have a flawless shiny surface, but nor was it scratched to **** either.  I have seen discs in much worse shape that have worked perfectly. 
    I figured if I cant get the physical disc to work on my mac, i should try to make a copy or image of the disc that I can use.  I tried using my Mac to make an image and copy of it, but i get a similar error stating it cannot read from the source disc.  I also have a PC so I figured if I pop it in there to make a copy or image, maybe that optical drive can read the disc better. 
    So on to my question...  My PC "seems" to read the disc just fine but being a Windows platform, it only "sees" Boot Camp installation files.  Also, it says the size of the disc is only 780MB whereas on the Mac the size was 6+GB.  I can make a copy of the disc, but it only copies those 750MB worth of Boot Camp files, so when I put the copied disc in my Mac, it "sees" only the windows files and not the Snow Leopard files.  So, is there a way on my PC to make a bit by bit exact copy of the Snow Leopard disc?  Or can it be that the Snow Leopard part of the disc is really scratched that bad and my PC can not even read it either? 

    The PC cannot read the HFS file system, so it only "sees" the
    boot camp (joliet) file system (SL DVD's contain a hybrid file system).
    I windows program such as isobuster can make a perfect iso file copy
    (provided the DVD is okay) of the SL hybrid install disk that can be
    used to burn a backup copy of your SL DVD, either in windows
    or Mac (with a good DVD Burner). SL DVD's are Dual Layer 8.3 GB
    DVD's, so you will need the equivalent blanks. 
    I suspect your  Mac's optical drive is either dirty or failing, causing the
    read problems on the Mac.

  • How do I backup or copy an email account or individual emails from a closed email account

    How do I backup or copy an email account or individual emails from a former employer on my iPhone 5s.  I can open the emails, but don't have access to the server - just messages on iPhone.  Thanks!

    Hello stoutstout,
    I imagine that forwarding the email does not function (since your account is closed), so I do not know what other options there would be.
    I know this is inconvenient (and unprofessional if you need those emails forwarded) but I would probably just screen shot all the important information I need from these emails.

  • How do I copy multiple email addresses from one email sent TO me into a new message?

    How do I copy multiple email addresses from an email sent to me into a new message?

    Are they in the body of the mail?
    Hold your finger down in that mail until the little blue bubble pops up. One of the options should be to select all. Choose that and all will be hilighted. then a pop up comes up to copy, choose that, open your destination and hold your finger down to get the paste dialogue.

  • Copying hangs when copying large files from DVD

    I'm having trouble copying large files (>2GB) from DVDs to my built-in hard drive. When I drag the file icon from the DVD window to the desktop, the progress bar pops up almost immediately, and says "0 KB of 2.3 GB copied" and "Estimated time left: 1 minute" -- and then it just sits there, doing nothing. In some cases, after five minutes or so of inactivity, the copy finally begins... but most of the time it never does. Force-Quit doesn't help; the only way out is to do an emergency restart and try again.
    This problem began when I upgraded to Tiger, and several members of my office group have been experiencing the same problem on their own computers as well.
    I've poked around the forum looking for answers but the only thing I could find that looked related was a conflict between iSight and some third-party external hard drives... but none of us have iSight, and none of us are using third-party external drives, so clearly that's not the issue we'rehaving.
    Any help out there?

    Michael, I occasionally notice anomolous behaviour when files get dragged between volumes. Mostly the copying window shows an accurate and immediate indication of what's going on, but other times it just looks like nothing's happening, the display never changes, yet, it is in fact copying the files over. Now, if you're copying 2gb files from DVD to HD, it's gonna take some time, more than 5 minutes, so I'm wondering how long you've left it before forcing it to quit?

  • How do I copy my email messages to my new ipad?

    Hello,
    Just got a new iPad, and I would like to transfer the email messages that are saved on the old ipad to the new one. I'm not bothered for the settings, as they are easy enough to do on the new one.
    I checked the articles about backing up and restoring, but then noticed this article that says (if I read it correctly) that whilst the account settings will be backed up, the saved messages won't. Well, that's the exact opposite of what I want. I'm not bothered about the account settings, but I specifically want the saved messages to be backed up, as I want to copy them across to the the new ipad.
    Anyone able to help? This all seems very complex for what should be a simple operation. Thanks

    I could not agree more with these statements!
    Anyone know how to copy saved emails from one ipad to another? This is about the mst obvious and important thing I can imagine anyone wanting to do when they get a new ipad, that I can't believe Apple have made it so hard.
    Were you ever able to find a way to get your cached/saved POP emails over to your new iPad?  How can there NOT be a way to do this?  I don't care that POP is old technology -- the iPad allows it to be used so it should provide sufficient functionality to make full use of it.  Mailbox export/import is a basic function of any mail application.
