Why do attachments sent to Windows computers come out unclear or very small on the other side?

I often send attachments to other people who do not use Macs and they advise me that the attachment is too small/they can't see it/it is unclear.
When I review their reply the attachment appears as a tiny document at the bottom of the email, however on my side it looks fine.

I have several pics that when I click on them another photo comes up. when I click and drag the one underneath comes out but when I drop it the other photo is over top again. How can I fix this?

I have several pics in my iphoto library that have shown up in my folders with the original photo laid underneath it. How do I seperate them?

You don't already have a back up?
Most Simple Back Up
Drag the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to another Disk. This will make a copy on that disk.
Slightly more complex:
Use an app that will do incremental back ups. This is a very good way to work. The first time you run the back up the app will make a complete copy of the Library. Thereafter it will update the back up with the changes you have made. That makes subsequent back ups much faster. Many of these apps also have scheduling capabilities: So set it up and it will do the back up automatically. Examples of such apps: Chronosync or DejaVu . But are many others. Search on MacUpdate
With the back up? Nothing unless things get worse after the fix. If they do, restore from the back up.

Why does my Alesis ioj2 express only come out through one side? When I sing into the microphone, it only comes out one side. I've set everything to stereo and it still has not solved the problem. Please help ASAP.

I currently have a D-Link DI-604 broadband router with windows computers. How can I add wifi to the network for use with ipad? Can I use AirPort Express?

I currently have a D-Link DI-604 broadband router with windows computers. How can I add wifi to the network for use with ipad? Can I use AirPort Express?

Yes. You can directly connect an 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) using an Ethernet cable. The AXn would then just need to be configured as a bridge to allow the D-Link to continue to provide both NAT & DHCP services for all network clients connected to either router.
In this configuration, the AXn would broadcast a wireless network for your wireless network clients to connect to.

Exporting to Tagged PDF: Why would every single line of text come out as a separate Span tag?

I've inherited an InDesign file for which I have to generate a 508-compliant PDF. Normally this is pretty smooth with InDesign, and most issues have historically been pretty easy to fix.
With this document, though, every single individual line is exporting to tagged PDF as a separate <Span> tag.
I've turned off overrides and hyphenation, and looked for manual line breaks. I've also tried exporting it out to IDML and opening that, and the resulting PDF was no better.
If anyone has an idea of whether there's some odd setting I'm missing that could explain why this is happening, that would be very helpful!

Thank you for being so helpful and constructive.
I tried to look at the ASDL settings, john46 but it's asking me for my HomeHub password... the only password I have is for our wireless network and that one doesn't work.
I can't test the phone line right now because I'll have to disconnect the internet and I'm currently working on another computer whilst chatting on this one with you. However I will do that later. I'll also look at the RogerB link you provided.
Truth is, we're pensioners who use the internet but we havent a grain of technical understanding between us. We're old fashioned enough to admit that we just want someone who knows what he's doing to come here and fix it for us. It's already cost us £130 for an engineer to come out from OpenReach to tell us the phone line is OK and it's the router causing the problem. Best case scenario is that another BT engineer who knows about broadband comes out and does it because the last BT person that I spoke to in Delhi did actually confirm that there is a fault on the BT side. I'm getting so frustrated right now I'll probably call out an independant I find in Yellow Pages and get charged an arm and a leg again and I'll then cancel with BT in a fit of pique.

In my Macbook Pro finder folder under All Images, there are duplicate files, but one is small and the other is full size. I wanted to clean up the files, but don't know why I have two of everything. Any Ideas?

In my Macbook Pro, the Finder folder has duplicate images in the 'all images' file. One image is small and the other is full size. First question is why do I have two of every image? Why is one small and the other large. Do I need two of everything? If not, which do I delete?
thanks, Jean

Hello fane,
Re: duplicate images in finder.
Nearly all images are JPG with a few GIF and PNG sprinkled in.
I opened the inspector so I do get info when opening each image, but it a slow process.
It seems that one image is around 70k while its twin can be up to 4Mb which is what comes unedited from my camera. Sometimes there will be 3 or 4 identical images in finder, but when I open iPhoto to see what ‘s really in the file, I find only one image, and it’s full sized.
Are all these extra images, even if they are aliases, taking up space on my drive? And should I delete them? The info bar says I have over 10,000 images, which is rather a lot for what I do.
I am unable to add the file size on the view menu as it is grayed out. Don’t know why it’s gray, but having that info on the screen would save a lot of time and fiddling with each image.
I am trying to resize selected pix so I can upload them to e-bay, which requires less than 70k. I have looked at resizing programs but most are for PC platform and not Mac, so I am trying to resize in the finder window under tools. Tedious at best. Any suggestions will be appreciated
Thanks for your help,
jeanfromwilsonville

You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages?

Why am I getting an error when I place two OAM files one after the other in different pages? They do not load or play correctly. They are both configured to play automatically with a .125 second delay and both have a white rectangle "poster" over for a hidden effect.

Thanks for the idea, Scott! I initially tried your idea, but my OAM files were still not loading correctly. I tried other combinations of OAM files, and it seems to work fine.
Back to my original OAM files: I made sure that my elements in my Edge Animate project had different names. I originally copied parts of some elements from one to another, and I think it was confusing to DPS to read it.

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Why won't my Razr Maxx ring when called from my home phone or the other cell phone (I-phone) on my Verizon account?

Hi Ruth:
Thanks for reaching out to me about this issue.
This has been happening since I got the phone a couple of years ago.
I did not realize that my home land line and my wife's cell phone
always go straight to voice mail until my wife pointed it out to me
several months ago. Is there a setting I can adjust?
Yes, I can make calls to our home land line and to her cell phone
without being diverted to voice mail.
Any advice you might have would be most welcome.
Thanks.

After installing Mavericks on my MacBook Pro 2009 (japanese keyboard) the layout doesn't work. I mean if I press the @ button the è symbol comes out. I tried to change the layout in Preferences but doesn't work. Could anyone help me please?

Hi there
after installing Mavericks on my macbookpro 2009 (Japanese keyboards) the layout doesn't work anymore. I mean, if I press the "@" button the "è" symbol comes out. I did already change the layout in the Preferences but it didn't work.
Could anyone help me please?

Apple has changed the way Kotoeri keyboard layouts work. You should be able to get normal behavior if you activate the US layout and switch to that just before using Kotoeri. Here is also an Apple note on the topic with another suggestion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5284
Be sure to tell Apple you want this changed back to the way if was in 10.8 and earlier via
http://www.apple.com/feedback
If you know Japanese well, you might ask on the Japanese discussions whether someone has found a better fix for this:

Petition: problems with characters in mail sent to Windows computers

Sign this petition by replying to this thread if you have problems with garbled characters when sending e-mails to Windows computers. Let Apple know It's a huge problem for non-English e-mailing customers and there is no way to definitively fix it.
I'll start it off:
Christoffer Du Rietz
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7) 17" last generation G4

I'm not interested in knowing the gory technical
details, I want Apple to fix the problem. The problem
have existed for years. Non-english speaking Mac
users run a high risk of sending e-mails that look
like pure garbage on computers that use Windows. This
does not help when trying to convince people that
Macs are superior.
I want Apple to fix Mail. Because it is
2006!
Your views are reasonable, but you need to send them to Apple, not just to the other users trying to provide help with problems in these forums. The channel for this is
http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/
You could also consider providing some feedback to MS. The longstanding bugs in Outlook that cause these problems represent really second-rate programming (even if it makes sense for Apple to somehow cater to them in Mail's behavior).

Why my new iPad App Store nothing come out on featured and charts ?

Why my iPad App Store nothing come out on featured and charts?

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Why does exporting to jpeg or png come out blurry in Illustrator CC?

Hello,
I am dying to export a poster ( size 27 x 41 in) from Illustrator CC into a jpeg. The image comes out blurry and text is fuzzy and not legible.
300 dpi, anti-aliasing optimized. Why does this happen?
The pngs won't even save, it takes hours and shuts down?
How can I export this crisp and clear in a format that client can use to print it form Staples or other center?
Kind,
Owl101

Hi There
I am experiencing the same issue. The jpg / png files which are exported from Illustrator CC turns out bad... and I did not want huge files (example 72dpi for web images) Can @Adobe @AdobeCare please provide assistance? I am using the Retina Mac Book Pro laptop.
Appreciate.

Why does a black and white picture come out with a tint? iPhoto, Canon

When I print a black and white picture from iPhoto, it comes out with a tint. How do I prevent that? iPhoto, Canon MX310

Hey neil293,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, when you print a photo in iPhoto it has a tint. I would recommend that you read this article, this article explains how to adjust the tint in a photo.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Have a good one,
