SENDING FILE FROM MAC TO PC

How do I convert a mac file so that when I send it to a pc user, they can open it just as I created it?  The receiver can never open my files and is as much an idiot as I am when it comes to computers.  Can I convert on my end so that he does not have to do anything to the file?

You can email a PDF as follows:
With the file open select Print.
At the bottom of the print dialogue box is a drop down menu that says PDF. Click on the drop down and one of the choices is email PDF.

    That's be use you can't send files from the iPad to the Mac over Bluetooth without a third party app. This feature is not native in iOS.
    You can email files, use DropBox or another cloud sync service, or use iOS File Sharing with iTunes. - if the app that you are using supports file sharing. There are also apps that let you mount your iPad like a thumb drive that will allow you to move files back and forth by connecting the device to the USB a port with the provided cable or by using WiFi as well.
    it helps if you state what files you want to move, what app you are using, etc....details, details....

  • Help me send files from my Mac to my BlackBerry

    Friends:
    I'm trying to send files to my BlackBerry via BlueTooth with no luck. I attempt to initiate receiving the files from my BlackBerry prior to sending it from my Mac, but I get the following error:
    "File Transfer Connection Failed" (the file doesn't even begin to transfer)
    Oddly enough I can send files from the BlackBerry via BlueTooth easily.
    Sharing via BlueTooth is enabled on the Mac.
    In manage connections, the the BlueTooth is ON but it has a little dash next
    to the checkbox, not a green check mark like Wi-Fi and the Mobile Network do.
    Thanks for your ideas!

    I've found the easiest way on leopard(or panther & Tiger) is to use my ISP's web mail, and bear in mind I am using an LG phone and Verizon, to sent a message and attachment to my phone by To: [email protected] and then it comes to cell phone. I don't know if your carrier has such a # to send data like verizon does. Probably does. Depending on what machine and OS X I'm using, it all seems to work different. There are modem scripts in /Library/Modem\ Scripts for usage. But then Leopard Syspref seems to have a different style to setup those modems. Bluetooth is about like a chain saw. Tough, at best to start, sometimes.

  • CS5 Indesign file from mac not opening on a pc

    Greetings, I have an Indesign CS5 file from mac that i can't open on  a pc. I made a package on my mac first, and then send it through wetransfer to my email. when i open it on the pc with a same version  it says  i need to upgrade my version first, which i already did and still didn't work. Could somebody help me please?

    What version do you have on the PC? CS5 files should open in CS5, CS5.5 and CS6. Perhaps the file is really a CS5.5 or CS6 file? You can find out using Jongware's script at Adobe Forums: [Ann] Identify Your InDesign File

    How disappointing though to read that there is no compatibility for bluetooth.  Had I been made aware of this I certainly would not have bought the ipad.  I find it extremely disappointing that there's no publicity about this fact.  I feel utterly conned by Apple.
    Yes, there is compatibility for BT: headphones, keyboards, speakers, and other peripherals. And, yes, this is very well known. I'm not sure what you expected in the way of "publicity". No manufacturer lists all of the things their product doesn't do.
    Best of luck.

  • I can't send file from my macbook via bluetooth

    I have this problem, I can't send files from my Macbook with bluetooth. When I click on send a file nothing happens, as if I didn't clck at all. I can still receive files though. It was working last week and I haven't changed my settings since. I checked and everything was still enable. I installed Mackeeper not long ago, I scanned the computer and made a cleanup shortly before it stopped working, I dont know if it could have been the cleanup, but it's troublesome since that was how I transfered my music on my mp3 player. I made a software update too and it didn't change a thing. Please help!! I don't know what to do!

    I guess I'm stumpted.  If the iMessage server is telling you that the recipient's email address/phone number is not registered with iMessage when in fact they are, somehow it's not looking it up correctly (as it is when you try from your phone).  Signing out of the account in preferences, then signing back in is about the only thing I can think of to "restart" iMessage.  I suppose you could try signing out again, then restart your Mac and sign back in.  If you didn't restart your Mac after you signed out of iCloud, you could try that too.  If none of that works, you'll probably have to contact Apple support for assistance.

  • Cannot send file from phone

    I have just moved over from my Nokia 6630 to an N70. Somewhere in the pairing process while setting up the new phone I have lost the ability to send files from either phone to the Mac via bluetooth.
    Everything else works fine. I can iSync and can send files from the Mac to both phones.
    I have deleted and re-paired without success.

    You ARE still on 10.4.3, right? Myself and many others had an identical problem, me with my Nokia 6670, after upgrading to 10.4.4. Ended up downgrading to 10.4.3. All working again.
    Looking at the list of supported phones on the Apple site, though, the N70 isn't there.

  • How do I send files from my LG Viewty to my macbook?

    Hi,
    I recently got my first ever mac, a beautiful macbook pro. Since I use my LG Viewty "cell" (mobile)phone as a camera, I wanted to transfer some photos onto my macbook. But after pairing the devices and switching both bluetooths on, I was able only to send files from the mac to the phone.
    Can anyone tell me how to send files from my phone to my macbook?
    Thanks

    I get the device does not have the necessary services, when I try this on the iPhone to send a file to the handset.
    The other way around from the handset to computer, you get 4 options.
    Email Photo
    send to MobileMe
    Assign to contact
    Use as wallpaper
    So that's it I guess, no bluetooth file transfer between iPhone to other devices.

  • Sending files from phone using bluetooth.

    How can I send files from phone (Nokia E61) to MacBook using bluetooth?
    There are the steps that I'm doing:
    1-Open bluetooth on my phone and Mac.
    2-select files on my phone.
    3-select send via bluetooth.
    4-select my Mac form bluetooth devices menu.
    5-click send.
    6-Connecting....
    7-Sending failed.
    I believe there is something that I have to do on my Mac to accept these files.
    BTW, I can browse my phone from Mac, but it's much easier to send files from phone to laptop.

  • Cannot send mail from mac mail or Entourage

    Hi guys,
    Wondered if anyone out there can shed some light on this little problem.
    I use Entourage for my emails & all was working fine until yesterday. I can receive mail from all and sundry but I can't send anything. I subscribe to ntlworld internet service and if log onto my email through their webmail, then it's fine. I've tried sending mail from mac mail and I get the same problem. I've been onto microsoft support & gone through all the troubleshooting with Entourage. The Entourage techy suggested it was my internet provider blocking my emails as they think I'm a spammer?? I phoned ntl & they insist it's nothing to do with them as I can send/receive from the website. (If I send an email with the address @ntlworld it's fine, but any other address i.e. all my clients/mates etc just stays in my outbox.
    Nothing on any of my settings has changed so I'm at a loss what to do next.
    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Mel

    it may be that your server (internet provider) has just started blocking outgoing mails not authenticated by them.
    Go to your account set up...
    and fill in the following details.
    SMTP SERVER: smtp.mac.com
    then click on advanced sending otions...
    click on override default SMTP port... type 587
    click on SMTP servber requires authentication...
    use same setting as receiving mail server.
    try this...

  • Cannot send files from phone to Satellite L755-16z using BT

    Hi, experts :)
    I'm gonna get straight to the point !
    I've got a toshiba satallite L755-16z since a month or so (New, with windows 7 64-bit)
    and its is known that it has BT and I guess its 3.0
    So I tried to connect the bluetooth with my phone & it paired just fine !
    but when I try to send files from and to my phone, it says (connecting) but doesn't manage to send it in the end. furthermore, this problem isn't only with my phone as I've tried sending and recieving to & from another phone, but still same problem !
    HOWEVER, I tried to turn the BT adapter off (right click on bluetooth Icon in notification area then turn adapter off), then starting the (bluetooth monitor) application, and sending files & IT WORKS !!
    But this happens only for one time right after restarting bluetooth, so everytime I have to send files, I have to turn BT off then turn it on ?!!!
    This is kind of Unacceptable !
    I tried Toshiba Bluetooth Stack, and it had the same problem. Also, I didn't like the way it worked (style and everything) ... so I uninstalled it & returned to the original BT version in pc.
    I've searched for answers with no luck & now I'm desperate for the answer !
    Plz anyone who knows how to solve this issue, help me Plz ??!
    If my email is needed : [[email protected]]

    ok I tried to turn it off with fn + f8 ... wlan turns off with it too, that's natural, I know :)
    then I turned it on & I recieved a file from phone just fine ... that only worked ONE time !
    after that, sending/recieving files won't work ... on my phone it says ( cannot connect ) .... same thing when I restart bt monitor manually !!
    Also, I have tried going to ( C:\Program Files (x86)\TOSHIBA\Bluetooth Monitor ) folder
    there are other bt monitors like (btmon2) and (btmon64) but both of them are have same problem but has more time of activity !
    the problem itself isn't that its on or off ...
    it is on and it appears in the notification area ... but only works for only a short period of time ...
    or for (btmon2) I can say it works right after starting it ... then works for a while when its active (sending files or recieving files) ... but after a while with no activity (no sending/recieving) It Stops Working :(
    How can I fix the problem ???
    Mr. Tonny ? Anyone ??

  • Transferring large volume of files from mac to PC?

    Hi i have a mac with osx 10.4.8 and a pc, i need to transfer a large amount of files from mac to pc (around 200GB)
    Now i have lots of external HDs which are all used by either the PC or the macs. the ones formatted for the macs cannot be read atall by the PC without some expensive software, the PC formatted one i have appears to be readable on the mac, but when i try to copy the files onto it or change anything, i am not able to change/add anythingn due to permissions problems.
    Not sure what to do, i have quite a few HDs with plenty of sapce, but if they are all in the wrong format i cant really wipe/reformat them easily with files on them, nor do i want to buy yet another HDD just to transfer some files....
    Any ideas/advice?
