TS3276 why is jpeg file lost and replaced with winmail.dat file in mail

I sent a jpeg file to my hotmail account, which is synchronised in my Mac Mail but the file was lost/converted to winmail.dat attachment, which I couldn't import to iPhoto. How do I import a jpeg image, emailed to me from an external source, to iPhoto?

I think you need to configure Outlook in Windows to use HTML messages.
Here is Microsoft's incomprehensible support document on the issue.
Here is one from about.com that makes sense.

How can I delete ALL contacts on my iphone and replace with an updated file from my Outlook on PC

how can I delete ALL contacts on my iphone and replace with an updated file from my Outlook on my PC

iTunes running, your phone connected, on the Info Pane, scroll down to "Advanced". Put a check in the box labeled "Replace Info on this Phone for Contacts" on next sync. Hit the apply/sync button.

If I sync my ipod touch with itunes, it all will be lost, and replaced with the old ones!

I plugged my ipod touch with several pc's, and if I sync with my pc, so Will all the programs replaced the old I had before. But if I do, can I download all the purchased music and all the programs my free? Since I've been downloading it before? Jardar.

- Yes. If you sync with another coputer. the contents of the iPod will be replaced with those on the new computer.
- You can redownload most iTues puchases b:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- You can transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- If yo want to retain app data like saved games, do the following after all the apps and other things on in the iTunes library:
---- Connect the iPod t the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup

New mails received after IOS 5.0.1 update do not show graphics but instead unviewable file name and an attachment winmail.dat

I sent out a mail, composed by outlook 2007 in HTML format this afternoon which contained graphics, to several of my friends and copied myself. All of them had duly received the mail and were able to see the graphics in the mail in their iphones or ipads. However, the copy that was extended to myself had only the unviewable graphic filename and also an attachment winmail.dat(which cannot be opened) from both my iphone and ipad (both updated with IOS 5.0.1). Prior to this update, I had no problem of seeing graphics or photos in the mails received in both my ipad or iphone. I ran couple of test mails and they all ended up the same.
Any ideas??

Turned out, it's the Microsoft SP3 update that caused the problem.

Create XML format file in bulk insert with a data file with out delimiter

Hello
I have a date file with no delimiter like bellow
0080970393102312072981103378000004329392643958
0080970393102312072981103378000004329392643958
I just know 5 first number in a line is for example "ID of bank"
or 6th and 7th number in a line is for example "ID of employee"
Could you help me how can I create a XML format file?
thanks alot

This is a fixed file format. We need to know the length of each field before creating the format file. Say you have said the first 5 characters are Bank ID and 6th to 7th as Employee ID ... then the XML should look like,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<BCPFORMAT xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/bulkload/format"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<RECORD>
<FIELD ID="1"xsi:type="CharFixed"LENGTH="5"/>
<FIELD ID="2"xsi:type="CharFixed"LENGTH="2"/>
<FIELD ID="3" xsi:type="CharFixed" LENGTH="8"/>
<FIELD ID="4" xsi:type="CharFixed" LENGTH="14"/>
<FIELD ID="5" xsi:type="CharFixed" LENGTH="14"/>
<FIELD ID="6" xsi:type="CharFixed" LENGTH="1"/>
</RECORD>
<ROW>
<COLUMNSOURCE="1"NAME="c1"xsi:type="SQLNCHAR"/>
<COLUMNSOURCE="2"NAME="c2"xsi:type="SQLNCHAR"/>
<COLUMN SOURCE="3" NAME="c3" xsi:type="SQLCHAR"/>
<COLUMN SOURCE="4" NAME="c4" xsi:type="SQLINT"
/>
<COLUMN SOURCE="5" NAME="c5" xsi:type="SQLINT"
/>
</ROW>
</BCPFORMAT>
Note: Similarly you need to specify the other length as well.

Search and replace strings in a file while ignoring substrings

Hi:
I have a java program that searches and replaces strings in a file. It makes a new copy of the file, searches for a string in the copy, replaces the string and renames the new copy to the original file, thereafter deleting the copy.
Now searching for "abcd", for eg works fine, but searching for "Topabcd" and replacing it doesnot work because there is a match for "abcd" in a different search scenario. How can I modify the code such that if "abcd" is already searched and replaced then it should not be searched for again or rather search for "abcd" as entire string and not if its a substring of another string.
In the below code output, all instances of "abcd" and the ones of "Topabcd" are replaced by ABCDEFG and TopABCDEF respectively, whereas according to the desired output, "abcd" should be replaced by ABCDEFG and "Topabcd" should be replaced by REPLACEMEFIRST.
try
          String find_productstring = "abcd";
          String replacement_productstring = "ABCDEFG";
          compsXml = new FileReader(compsLoc);
          compsConfigFile = new BufferedReader(compsXml);
          File compsFile =new File("file.xml");
          File compsNewFile =new File("file1.xml");
          BufferedWriter out =new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("file1.xml"));
          while ((compsLine = compsConfigFile.readLine()) != null)
                new_compsLine =compsLine.replaceFirst(find_productstring, replacement_productstring);
                out.write(new_compsLine);
                out.write("\n");
            out.close();
            compsConfigFile.close();
            compsFile.delete();
            compsNewFile.renameTo(compsFile);
        catch (IOException e)
        //since "Topabcd" contains "abcd", which is the search above and hence the string "Topabcd" is not replaced correctly
         try
               String find_producttopstring = "Topabcd";
               String replacement_producttopstring = "REPLACEMEFIRST";

Bug in Multi-File Search and Replace in RH6?

I'm using the 6.0 trial, and one thing I want to be able to
do is to replace the variables I put in using JavaScript with the
new feature variables in 6.0. So, I went in to multi-file search
and replace, and searched for:
<script
language=JavaScript>document.write(varProduct)</script>
I copied this code directly from a topic, and pasted it into
the Search tool.
I don't even care whether I can successfully copy the code
from my new variable for use as the replacement text; I'd be happy
if the multi-file search would simply find all occurrences of my
original code so I don't miss any during conversion to 6.0.
It keeps coming up as not found, and this concerns me
greatly. Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a known bug? Does
anyone have a workaround?
Thanks!

Hi robowriter
I'm assuming you are using the wondrous little applet known
as Multi-File Find and Replace.
Unfortunately, this little beastie is like a cat. It
frequently has a fussy tummy and loves to hork up furballs. Well,
not exactly. Really what it does is fail to properly handle
anything with a line break. So you need a tool that does do this.
Fortunately, one exists! It is called FAR (Find And Replace). Oddly
enough, it was also written by a fellow Microsoft Help MVP named
Rob Chandler. (Rob lives in Australia)
You can download a trial version of FAR from the FAR page.

Reformatting files in Dreamweaver: Batch series of .dwr files (find and replace) consecutively

I have to do complicated reformatting of an entire site. It's been simplified to a series of find and replace tasks for each file. Each find and replace string has been saved as a .dwr file. Currently I have to load and execute each .dwr file.
How do you batch process or automate this task in Dreamweaver? In other words, queue up a series of .dwr files to be executed consecutively?

OK here we go.
This example, a simple Dreamweaver Command Extension, will execute two Find and Replace commands in one go. (It can be any number of Find and Replace commands.)
The first command replaces "the" and "this" with "phe" and "phis". The second command replaces <ul> ... </ul> with <ol> ... </ol>. (These of course can be any Find and Replace.)
You need two files: a HTML file (for the UI) and a Javascript file (for actions). I named them "Find and Replace Test.html" and "Find and Replace Test.js". (They can be any name.)
Find and Replace Test.html
<!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM "-//Adobe//DWExtension layout-engine 10.0//dialog">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<Title>Find and Replace Test</Title>
<script src="Find and Replace Test.js"></script>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<form>
     <p>Are you sure?</p>
</form>
</BODY>
</HTML>
Find and Replace Test.js
function canAcceptCommand() {
    return true;
function commandButtons() {
    return new Array("Go!", "doIt()", "Cancel", "window.close()");
function doIt() {
    dreamweaver.setUpFindReplace({
        searchString: "th(e|is)",
        replaceString: "ph$1",
        searchWhat: "document",
        searchSource: true,
        useRegularExpressions: true
    dreamweaver.replaceAll();
    dreamweaver.setUpFindReplace({
        searchString: "<(/?)ul>",
        replaceString: "<$1ol>",
        searchWhat: "document",
        searchSource: true,
        useRegularExpressions: true
    dreamweaver.replaceAll();
    window.close();
Basically you can call any number of this pair of functions in the script:
dreamweaver.setUpFindReplace(findAndReplaceObject);
dreamweaver.replaceAll();
Place these HTML and JS files in this directory:
Dreamweaver App Directory/Configuration/Commands/
Then in Dreamweaver, open "Insert" window. (You need to have a HTML file open in order to make the Insert window active.) At the top of the Insert window there's a category dropdown menu ("Common" etc.). Do alt + click (ctrl + click) - then you'll see an item "Reload Extenesions" at the bottom of the dropdown. This will load this extension to DW. (Alternatively you can restart DW to load the extension.)
Now it's ready to run the Extension. Open a HTML document you want to modify. Go to "Commands" on the menu bar. At the bottom of the dropdown there should be an item "Find and Replace Test". Select and enjoy
Notes
This example is set to perform the Find and Replace on the current document. You can change the scope to the entire site, or the selected files, etc, just like in the Find and Replace dialogue box. The API doc is here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/apiref/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d117f9e09bcf-7ed a.html
You can use dreamweaver.setUpComplexFindReplace(xmlQueryString) command instead. xmlQueryString is basically <dwquery> ... </dwquery> in your .dwr files, you can copy from your .dwr files. However xmlQueryString needs to be one continuous string (no line breaks), which can be a pain The doc: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/apiref/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d117f9e09bcf-7ed 9.html
Command Extension general example in the doc: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/extend/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d117f53d6ec3-7fe 6.html
I hope all of these make sense...

I wrote an 2500 words assignment and saved in Microsoft word 97-2003 and by mistake replaced with another word file.How can i retain my original work?

Hi,
Does this happen to all 97-2003 Word files?
Word 2013 now has lots of updates compared with earlier version of Word, lots of features have been updated. Use Word 2013 to open documents created in earlier versions of Word (Word 97-2003 format), you will probably encounter unexpected problems,
expecially for those heavily formatted files.
We would suggest you to convert your document to the Word 2013 file format, then you will be able to access the new and enhanced features in Word 2013.

Multi File Find and Replace FAR missing from tools

I have RoboHelp x5.0.2 and I have always used Find and
Replace at my previous employer. I have started with a new company
and the RoboHelp FAR is missing from Tools. I know you can Add a
tool if you know the path, but I have no idea where to look.
Some background:
We use Source Safe (VSS) to check our files in and out.
I have verified that all of the files are NOT read-only.
HELP!!!!

Maybe you are mixing up something. RoboHelp includes a tool
named Multi-File Find and Replace. This should indeed be situated
on the Tools pane.
There exists a tool called FAR, which, among other things,
offers a similar functionality. FAR is shareware and
not included in RoboHelp.

Is this a particular sender, or all of your attchments? Google winmail.dat and you will see a number of returns that can explain this, but in short, this is the way some e mail providers deal with attachments. If all of your e mail is coming that way, you need to change a setting on your isp set up. Perhaps stary here...

Why were the colour icons taken away from the finder and itunes sidebars and and replaced with grey monochrome shade icons. It doesn't make any sense.

Why were the colour icons taken away from the finder and itunes sidebars and and replaced with grey monochrome shade icons.
Have apple rectified this yet ?
It doesn't make sense to me why they changed this. Can anyone tell me the reason for the lack of colour ?
On another note, can the the sidebar be changed back to the right hand side in preview (when opening PDF's). It has always been on the right in snow leopard and tiger.
It seems to me that their has been too many unnecessary changes in the Lion operating system.
Thanks.

You'd have to ask Apple, no one here would know - we are just users like you and aren't allowed to speculate on these forums. You have quite a bit of company though - many people preferred the color.
And, I've not found a way to put the sidebar back on the right side in Preview, but maybe someone else can chime in with that.
I much prefer the sidebar a la sinistra

System altered. Upto this i was clear, but now i cann't understand when you actually dropped the control file from you database(in running stat) how can you perform "alter system checkpoint" and other "alter tablespace.." command? Once controlfile is inaccessible, oracle database is not suppose to function.

How to advoid Pdf attached files turning into winmail.dat file causing incovinience opening them? And why does the phone automatically changes the file???

The first time i opened the mail, the mail loaded the attactment as pdf file and i was able to open it without any problems. But then when i tried to open it again, i watched the phone automatically turned the pdf file into winmail.dat without any of my control. Since then, i werent able to open the file anymore! And this was lucky that i was able to see it as pdf file - all other attachments i have recieved since using my new ip6 all turn into winmail.dat
this is really incovinient and frustrating for work. i cant believe i cannot just open a pdf file as a pdf file on my ip6 in the emails i recieve. I was on ip4 before this and never have anything like this happened.
Solution needed asap please.
Thankyou!

Hi Jnkm,
I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with your new iPhone 6. If you are getting a winmail.dat file instead of a PDF, you may want to see if it may be the issue noted in the following article:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch does not display attachment in email - Apple Support
