Very specific GMail attachment problem

I have a number of IP webcams (Y-Cam Black) that are setup to send an email to my GMail account containing a snapshot of any movement detected within sensor range at home.
The picture attachments view fine if I open the email from the GMail web client, but they show up as "This message has no content" in the mail application on my iPhone and if I open them up, they just contain a load of garbage that always begins with "ˇÿˇ‡JFIF" (Base64/MIME encoded jpeg?)
Image attachments are not a problem from other sources, and my IP camera images are viewable everywhere else, including from my ageing Windows Mobile device which I was hoping I could get rid of now I have my iPhone. I don't know whether this is caused at the phone end or the camera end, but the camera manufacturer has been less than helpful so far.
Has anybody else seen this with any other source? Is it a very specific mail formatting issue? I was kinda hoping it was a glitch in iPhone 2.0 but it still happens with 3.0 firmware.

Hi QP
I'm sorry I don't actually know how to solve that problem, but for the technically minded out there, I've observed the same thing on my iPhone when my father-in-law sends me emails with attachments (his work uses Lotus Notes for emailing).

VERY SPECIFIC RAM QUESTION (not answered in prior topics)

I have a very specific RAM question. I've been pouring through the discussions and I see TONS of stuff about the proper way to upgrade RAM. I've done that before without incident, but here is my dilemma:
I'm using the 3.0Ghz, 8-core, MP currently with 8GB of the 667Mhz RAM (8x1GB). The memory is all matched from OWC and I have had no problems.
I just bought 16GB of new RAM from OWC (4x4GB).
I'm going to remove all 8 of the current 1GB DIMM's, and place two of the 4GB DIMM's in slots 1 & 2 on riser A, and two of the 4GB DIMM's in slots 1 & 2 on riser B. That will give me 16GB's in matched pairs on slots 1 & 2 of both riser A and B.
My question is this: Should I install two of my old 1GB DIMM's in slots 3/4 of riser A, and two of the old 1GB DIMM's in slots 3/4 of riser B (for a total of 20GB's)?
I've read that having all 8 slots filled = better performance but I'm not sure the mix of 4GB DIMM's and 1GB DIMM's.
Any Thoughts?
Thanks So Much,
Tom

Optimally you want matched quads in each Riser. However, Bare Feats did some memory benchmarks that you might wish to read regarding memory performance versus different configurations. As for proper installation see the following:

Specific Gmail email address not getting through to iCloud email address

Hi,
As of this morning I am not receiving emails sent from my wife's Gmail account to my iCloud email address. However, I can receive Gmail sent from my account to my iCloud email. I can also receive email sent from my wife's gmx email address to my iCloud email address. So the problem seems to be with one specific Gmail address (as far as I am aware).
Any thoughts/help/advice would be much appreciated.

It seems to be a problem between Apple and Gmail mail servers. This issue is reported in many threads here and on google product forums.
Are you getting other emails from Gmail accounts? If not, then call Apple and report this: 800-275-2273
The more people that call, the more they become aware this is a widespread issue. They don't read these boards.

Although the "hint" for my administrative password is correct, my password is not accepted. I don't understand as the hint is very specific

I suddenly have a problem with my Macbook Pro.. Despite the fact that the "hint" for the administrative password is very specific AND correct, when I put in the password that I have always used, I am sent a message that it is incorrect. This is the password used for updates and it's driving me crazy that it is not changed but not accepted.

Check that caps lock is not on. If it isn't, proceed as below.
If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know that account password, the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password.
Otherwise, boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens.
Select your boot volume if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but you won't be able to unlock the Keychain. If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as your login password), there's no way to recover it. You’ll need to reset your keychain in the preferences of the Keychain Access application.

HT4207 how can I remove a specific gmail account from my ipad 4?

How can I remove a specific Gmail account from my ipad 4?

Assuming you are not syncing with iCloud and you mean, syncing with iTunes only...(you can only use one or the other for syncing to prevent duplicates)
iTunes -
- Open iTunes on your Mac. Connect your iPad. Then click on your iPad (either its name or just "iPad"), then click the info tab (right above the photo of an iPad in the middle). From here you can select sync contacts, then sync groups, and select the groups you want and choose Apply/Sync in the bottom left corner.
iCloud -
- With iCloud if you just sign into iCloud in System Preferences and turn on Contacts, it will prompt to merge all of your contacts that are not already syncing with Gmail or Yahoo!, etc. so there really isnt a way to pick and choose as much with that.
- However if you really want to use iCloud and not iTunes, you could import the contacts that you want into iCloud.com, but you would need to export them from your Contacts App on your Mac and then import them into iCloud (VCard / .VCF is the format you want).
* Exporting the contacts from your Mac Contacts Application --> http://mac.tutsplus.com/tutorials/app-training/contacts-101-a-beginners-guide-to -contacts-on-os-x/ (further down the page)
*Importing contacts into iCloud.com - http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605
**NOTE - Remember if you do the import into iCloud.com method, DO NOT sign into System Preferences > iCloud, and choose to MERGE contacts. If you do this later, all of your contacts will merge with iCloud and you will have duplicates of this group.
I hope this isnt too confusing. Have a good night!

Help! I have recently updated LR5 and before doing so I was able to email files to clients! (Very Convenient) Now my problem is I have not been able to get pass this error message reading "failed to send" which gives no further detail about what to do to rectify the situation. Someone please guide me through this! Thanks in advance!

Did this ever get resolved, as I am having the same issue. Trying to learn LR5 AFTER a decade using Aperture. I was able to set up a validated account but when I try to send an e-mail or photo I get the simple " Failed to Send " message. Using latest version of Mac OS X.

GMAIL IMAP PROBLEM (can't duplicate mailbox in apple mail)

I am seriously at my wits end! It has been about a week and I am still having huge problems with my gmail imap account in apple mail. At first, my sent messages were not being imported into apple mail (only about 30 days work). After a bunch of fiddling and trying to fix the problem (deleting the account in apple mail, rehooking up the account, rebuilding the mailbox, switching off IMAP enabling in gmail) the problem has only gotten worse.
Now, only 1000 emails from gmail are sent into apple mail. I know there is a setting within the gmail prefs to limit the amount of messages in an imap folder 1000 but, I have that turned OFF.
As of right now my apple mail shows about 1000 messages in my inbox and 250 or so in my sent mail. None of the mail is from before 12/7/10.
The only thing that seems significant about that date is that I set up another IMAP account on a temporary macbook laptop at a temp job on that day in apple mail (the account has since been deleted when I stopped using the laptop).
Ugh, this is so annoying and frustrating. I often need to look in my mail archive for old messages/attachments.
I can't seem to find any help anywhere, but if you can offer me any advice I would really appreciate it!

Hi,
I don't know if this is relevant... but…
Last year, when I set up a second, temporary Gmail IMAP account, I found that all did not jell well together…
I encountered quite a few problems… sending and receiving… transferring to and from the accounts… and lots of Hangs and Time Outs…
When I had eventually finished with the second account, I not only deleted it from Mac Mail, but Completely Closed and Deleted it with Gmail.
Since then I have had no such problems with my single Gmail IMAP account…
As I said, not sure if this is relevant to your Problem, but thought it might be of interest to you.
Cheers

Hi Suresh,
I just tried this thing in my systtem and it is working... BADI is trigerred everytime there is a change in the PO... even when you release there is a change in the PO so this BADI will be triggerred....
I suggest you should implement BADI in your dev system and place a break point in the POST method...
After that create a PO and release it using ME29N... thereafter when you save the PO... this method will trigger and you will have access to PO details...
PS: Remember this BADI wont work for transaction ME29...
Regards
Gautam

eg
declare
a varchar2;
begin
a:='12*12';
etc....
end ;
so here i want to get 144 as the output ..
lets see how u handel it
thanx
dg

you can change the value assigned to variable S1 to whatever operation you need to perform.
DECLARE
     V_HANDLE     INTEGER;
     STMT          VARCHAR2(100);
     S1               VARCHAR2(50) := '12/2';
     RES               INTEGER;
BEGIN
     V_HANDLE := DBMS_SQL.OPEN_CURSOR;
     STMT := 'SELECT '||S1||' FROM DUAL';
     DBMS_SQL.PARSE(V_HANDLE, STMT, DBMS_SQL.NATIVE);
     DBMS_SQL.DEFINE_COLUMN(V_HANDLE, 1, 1);
     RES     := DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE(V_HANDLE);
     LOOP
          EXIT WHEN DBMS_SQL.FETCH_ROWS(V_HANDLE) = 0;
          DBMS_SQL.COLUMN_VALUE(V_HANDLE, 1, RES);
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('RES = '||RES);
     END LOOP;
     DBMS_SQL.CLOSE_CURSOR (V_HANDLE);
END;

New document: How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems

Have you ever had problems with PDF attachments sent from Adobe Reader for iOS using Share > E-mail Document?
You may find this document useful to avoid the problems.
How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems
Please let us know if you have encountered different types of problems with PDF attachments. We can look for solutions or workarounds for you.

Unfortunately, we (Adobe Reader mobile team) do not know if/when Apple will fix the attachment problems (software defects) in Apple Mail.
In particular, the attachment problem with Microsoft Outlook (See Problem #2 in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems) appears to be a long-standing defect that has been known for years. However, Apple has not provided any fix for Apple Mail yet.
Adobe Reader for iOS merely launches Apple Mail (the default mail app on iOS) to send a PDF document as an attachment. Adobe Reader has no control over whether or not to embed a preview image of an attachment in the body of an email message, which is known to cause the problem with Microsoft Outlook (on the receiving side). The same problem happens when you send a single-page PDF document as an attachment along with an email signature from Apple iBooks on iOS.
For now, all iPad/iPhone users can do is to avoid the problems by using the workarounds that are described in How to avoid known PDF email attachment problems.
When new and different problems with PDF attachments are reported by Adobe Reader for iOS users, we will update the document above.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

OK.

I'm finally moving my photos from my PC to my MacBook Pro. I have 8 years worth of photos organized into very specific albums. Can I import the album structure directly into iPhoto or am I going to have to recreate everything in iPhoto?

I'm finally moving my photos from my PC to my MacBook Pro. I have 8 years worth of photos organized into very specific albums. Can I import the album structure directly into iPhoto or am I going to have to recreate everything in iPhoto?

If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.

Gmail attachment stopped working in Firefox with latest update. What to do?

My Gmail attachment function stopped working with the latest Firefox update (Aug. 2014). Things I tried that didn't help include:
1. Re-installed the latest version.
2. Restored to my earlier version.
3. Cleared cookies.
Gmail functions just fine in IE, but I would rather stay with Firefox if I can. Any suggestions?

If you can't add attachments to Gmail messages then you need to add an allow exception to allow pop-ups for this Google website (mail.google.com).
Easiest to do this is to click the padlock on the location bar and click the "More Information" button to open the "Tools > Page Info" window with the Security tab selected.
Proceed to the Permissions tab
Remove the tick on "Open Pop-up Windows" > "Use Default" and click the Allow radio button to change the permission to allow pop-ups for the mail.google.com domain.
Google is looking into this issue, see:
