Sharing file paths on server via email

Basic question,
using either Entourage or Mail.app is it possible to provide a hyperlink to a document located on a leopard server share?
thanks

Hello,
Yes, this can be done using a copy path application. I did not like the ones i saw on the internet, so I had one of our programmers write a custom one for us. We drop it as a custom button on the finder toolbar of the window, and users select the file and hit the buttton, which copies the path to the clipboard. They then paste it to an email. Below is an example of what the path looks like in email... That is an AFP URL that Mac can read when connected to an AFP fileserver. If you really need it, I can share this handy little app with you.
file:///Volumes/Werkshare/fla_test.fla

How do I scan a photo to a file and then send the file as an attachment via email.

How do I scan a photo to a file and then send the file as an attachment via email.

All of this depends largely on what printer /software you have, which Email client you use and to some extent which OS you are running.
Most HP printers have HP Solution Center which is used to set up scanning,choosing where to save,etc. Once a file/photo is scanned and saved to the folder, open the folder.Select the file and at the top of the window should be the option to 'Email'.

Searching for shared files over a server network using a client computer

I think spotlight can only be used to search for files on a local computer. Is there a way to search for shared files on a server from a logged in client computer?

It should work on shared HFS volumes. You would have to start the search from the Finder, not from the Spotlight menu.

I tried sending the Adobe pdf file of a poster via email and it said the file was too large to send. How do I remedy this?

I tried sending an Adobe pdf file of a poster via email and it wouldn't go through because it said the file was too large. How do I remedy this?

Lots of free file hosters out there. Mediafire.com as an example. Upload a file there, copy and paste the download link you are given into your email to the client, then delete it as soon as the client successfully downloads it. Mediafire has 10 gb storage for free accounts.
Email is limited to 10 MB on attachments. So that's where file hosting comes in.

Excel file can't open via email after upgrading to OSX 10.9.2

After upgrading to OSX 10.9.2, my Excel files are not readable when sent by email. My version for Excel is 2008 for Mac V12.3.6.
I have no trouble opening Excel on my computer but cannot seem to send Excel files via email.

Thanks. Tried that and it works but I had found another alternative.
Didn't realise but my Excel file had the extension missing even though it was saved as xlsx. To solve the problem, I just clicked on 'Append the File Extension' when I 'Saved As' and it worked. Thanks for the alternative help anyway.

Sending an input pdf file as an attachement via EMAIL adapter in PI

Hi XI Experts,
Kindly request you to help in the below issue:
I have a File to EMAIL interface in which the file channel would pick up a file "Test.pdf".
This file should be sent as an attachment to a number of receipients as it is without any formatting of the content.
In other words, XI should pick the file and attach it as it is as an EMAIL.
There is no need of any mapping changes.
We are giving the receipients during runtime hence, we have done dynamic configuration.
Kindly suggest how to attach the file as it is in the EMAIL.
Thank you.
Regards,
Subbu

Encrypting a file to be snet via email

Hi,
I have a file which I wish to encrypt and send via email. I know how to send by email but wish to send the file (csv), protected. I have read a few boards that say you could zip the file and add password protection. But sadly none of the forums show how to do this, does anyone have any code examples of what packages I would need?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Common URL format for sharing file paths between Mac and Windows?

Hi -
I have to integrate several Macs into a Windows environment. We need to be able to copy and paste file paths to share between all machines. Is there a common URL format that can be used between the platforms?
On Windows, I have:
\\server\share\file
On the Mac:
smb://server/share/file
Thank you for your help,
Steve

On Windows you have what is known as a "UNC".
On the Mac, you have a "URL". It starts with the protocol to use "smb" then gives the path to the item using standard conventions.
UNC is Microsoft mainly.
The only way I know for Windows to use a URL is with an application like a web browser or ftp client.
On the Mac, you can use UNCs but they must be modified as follows.
In Terminal:
smbclient \\\\servername\\sharename\\filename -U username
And enter a password if prompted.
Notice that you must double up the slashes. This is due to how UNIX shells treat the backslash.
You will connect to the share, but it will only be in Terminal.

Urgent : Download file from Application Server via Process Chain.

Unable to Find Shared Files on the Server

Hello world,
I am using Mac in my office and suddenly when I open our company's shared folders, my Mac finder doesn't show latest added files by my colleagues.
I tried the following with no success:
Restart.
Disconnect from the server and reconnect.
Relaunch the finder.
Kill the finder using the Terminal.
My company uses "small business server SBS 2008", and everything was working perfect until I installed "security update 2015-002 V. 1.0"!
Please help.

Well seems like this was a bug that was fixed in SQL 2012 Service Pack 2! I've just applied it to the system in question, and it works as it should now.
At least this information is up here for others who may encounter it now!

How do You Link to Archived Sites, or files, on the Server via the Wiki?

I've saved an archived site to workgroup/sites/www.archivedaite.org/. What I want to be able to do is to put a link on my wiki to pick up the index page within this archived site.
I've tried to use "file:///volumes/groups/workgroup/sites/www.archivedsite.org/index.php.html". While this works fine in the browser location bar, the wiki won't accept it. By this I mean that even if I go in and edit the HTML the wiki deletes the link when you save the page.
Could I save the file to the "Sites" folder on the server for one of the userers (like the serveradmin one), as a work around?

Sadly I am having the same issue, and there is nothing in the control center that helps. In previous versions of iOS, I could easily listen to podcasts or my iTunes library though my Bluetooth headset. Double pressing the home button would bring up controls at the bottom of the iPhone screen and to the far right would be an icon where I could select the audio device I wanted. If there was a Bluetooth device synched to the phone, I could choose to listen to the music either via my phone's speakers or via the Bluetooth. This option does not exist anywhere anymore. I just hooked up my Bluetooth (finally got around to it since upgrading) and when playing music either from my phone's internal memory or via iTunes radio, it just comes out over the iPhone's speakers. There is no way to select any other option. Hopefully they'll fix this in 7.0.5.

I can't access a shared file on remote server

I can connect to a windows 2003 server through the VPN but I can't find the shared folder any where? I can see the Printers and fax machine through the web browser. I've only had my mac for a week but I really need to get to my work files!

I find it astonishing that you can see remote printers and fax machines through your web browser, but that's a different issue.
Even though you're on the VPN and connected to the office network, there is no support for auto-discovery over the VPN connection. In other words, the OS won't go out and look for available servers/shares in the VPN network.
In order to connect to remote shares you'll need to know the server and share name which you can then enter into the Finder's Go -> Connect to Server dialog in the form smb://server/sharename (assuming you're using SMB servers in the central office).

Problems with the shared files of Windows Server 2003 and Mac

I have some Mac computers in the domain of my LAN Network, and when I share a folder in Windows Server 2003 sometimes the Mac can not see and sometimes yes, but lasts a long time so that they can view folders. I have installed the protocol Apple Talk on the server and File Server and in the Domain Server.
The folders when users have no security users or groups are immediately with a connection AFP, but if they have not already created security can be displayed with a connection AFP, but if you can visualize a connection with SMB, but I can not work with Quark 6.0 Pro files.
What can I do to solve this problem.

The newer printers:
canon irc3100
canon ir5020-i have working on osx side, not in classic
Older printers:
hp laserjet 5m-2 of these
hp 2200
hp laserjet 5si-2 of these
hp laserjet 4100
These are installed on windows 2003 with mac print services running. I need to know what option i should use in osx when installing these network printers on these macs. When i go to printers folder, i chose windows printing then it prompts for the ppd file. I found it for the ir5020 but not the ir3100. I really need to test the hp laserjets in osx too. Ill post up when i test those. But that one canon (ir3100) is bothering me. They are roughly the same age and the drivers on the site don't seem to work.
