Wrong attachments

On several occasions I find that the attachment being sent by Mail (Word or Excel) is not the one I have expected.
I suspect that Mail recognizes the file name (the file attached) and uses one that has been recently sent. I find thatI have to check by yhopening aup the attachment (prior to sending) just to check. Frequently i find that it is an older version.
This happens when I receive a file or I have an internal file which I previous mailed, but bnow have changes. Thus Mail appears to get confused about which version to access and send
One solution is to rename the file ( a nuisance), another is to open up the attachment (as shown in the Mail message)
Sounds as if a programmer trying to be helpful is counterproductive.
Simple solution, eplanation? to ensure that the version I want to email is the one Mail ends up sending?

Don,
Unfortunately, my iBook, where I have MS Office installed, is on loan to a daughter, and I do not have it installed on my other two Macs. However, if I am understanding you correctly, you are, while in Word, using a command to send the current document to a recipient -- is this correct?
Have you done a Save, to capture the changes to the document, before invoking the Send To Recipient, so that file that is actually opened by Word has been updated? As you edit any document, you are not changing the file copy, but only have a temporary copy, until you do a Save.
In my experience, Mail only places a file in the Mail Downloads folder, when a message is received, and the file opened directly from the Mail window -- not during sending. Furthermore, the New Message is prepared by Word, before appearing in a Mail Compose window, I believe.
If, on the other hand, you are talking about receiving the Word doc back from someone, then opening the file from the email message, changing, then you would first need to Save the changes to the document, and the changes would be made to the copy in the Mail Downloads folder.
More info, please.

  • Writing data to a column

    I cant figure this out. I havent used labview in a little while and now I have to use these things you people call "arrays" and I'm confused.
    Anyway, I want to dynamically write data to a column and/or a row depending on where in the program I am.
    I'm having an issue writing to a column, please help me. What am i doing wrong

    The term "array" is a pretty common term in computer programming, so if you aren't familiar with it, then you probably will have lots of problems.  I suggest you start with some online LabVIEW tutorials
    LabVIEW Introduction Course - Three Hours
    LabVIEW Introduction Course - Six Hours
    You are using Insert into Array.  It looks like you are inserting into column 2.  Are you sure you don't want "Replace Array Subset"?
    It is hard to debug a screenshot.  A copy of your VI would be better.  Is your 2-d string array going into the initializer terminal of the feedback node an empty array?  You can't insert new data into an array in an area past the end of an array.  (i.e.  if column 0 is blank, you can't insert data into column 2, what would column 1 get?)

  • How to add additonal functions such as'frequen​cy interval,'​number of intervals'​to basic functon generator VI.

    The VI should like this:
    For the generator, select amplitude, waveform (sine, square-wave, etc), starting frequency, frequency interval, number if intervals, and time between frequency changes and start button (maybe stop button).
    When the VI is started, the generator generates a sine wave, say, (if selected), at the starting frequency; this frequency is constant for the slected time (between frequency changes), then the new freqjency is the starting frequency plus the frequency interval which is then held constant (for the time between frequency changes), as before; then,add the frequency interval and repeat. The multimeter should allow selection of
    range (voltage, current, etc) and if voltage, the voltage range if necessary.
    The multimeter output should be divided by the input from the generator and fo to an X-Y plot say log frequency on the X-axis and log of the ratio (multimeter output/generator output) on the Y axis.
    can anyone plz help me in posting this code

    I have used the frquency response example VI and replaced the drivers with 34401a and 33120A drivers.iam getting the error as'Error-1074130544 occurred at hp33120a configure output mode.vi'. Could you just help me in specifying what the error is and am i right doing just replacing the drivers.Iam attaching my VI with this message.Just let me know if there is anything wrong

  • Replacing shift registers with queues or notifiers?

    Hello World,
    I'm using labView 7.1 with my first application, which is essentially a spectrum analyser and comparison to limits. now due to the parameters of the sampling 12000 samples/sec with 4096 point I have quite large chunks of data involved in rolling averages of 1 minute and rolling buffers that are an hour long. I'm pretty new to labview but I'm finding pretty easy to pick up except when it comes to optimisation and performance (I've been used to the microsoft approach until now) due to the fact that the instrument I'm building has to run in psuedo "real time".
    I've been looking at replacing the shift registers with either queues or notifiers but I'm unsure if these techniques would result in improvements or not.
    I'll attach a jpg of my main loop, I've only got the one but it is separated into three separate tasks but they are all governed by the data flow, DAQ then PROCESSING then REPORTING.
    I've been told that by separating the loops and making them run in parallel LV will be able to compile it more efficeintly, but I'm unsure how to do that .
    Cheers

    Don't convert shift registers into queues or other things for performance reasons! LabVIEW has a lot of internal optimization logic when compiling your code which works best on shift registers. On a queue you will always copy the entire data of a message in or out even if you only need one byte of it.
    Try to look at your architecture. You do want to do as much as possible in place. Try to completely avoid Append Array or Append String inside loops if possible. They are costly operations as they have to reallocate memory each time and often copy the entire data from the first array into the resized array. Better is to once preallocate an array of the necessary size, keep it in your shift register all the time and then use Replace Array Subset, Index Array and Array Subset nodes only on this. You will also have to maintian some index shich tells you up to where you have currently filled that array and that one is usualy best put into a shift register as well.

  • In my 16 gb iPhone 5, Mail has used up 5,6 gbs of memory.  Trash is empty and there are a few mails in my accounts with no attachments.  What's wrong?

    In my 16 gb iPhone 5, Mail has used up 5,6 gbs of memory (and is increasing).  Trash is empty and there are a few mails in my accounts with no attachments.  What's wrong?

    These are Apple's tips on this:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 15 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see the battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • HT1338 When I email an attachment with "Always Sent Windows-Friendly Attachments" checked, the result is a picture embedded in the body of the email, not a attachment.  What am I doing wrong.

    When I email an attachment (a .jpg file) with "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" checked, the result is a picture embedded in the body of the email, not a attachment.  What am I doing wrong.

    1. "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" has nothing to do with the display of attachments on either your machine or other ones. It's an esoteric setting that strips the resource fork from Mac files (that might have them) which could apper as a duplicate file on the Windows machine.
    2. Send Plain Text emails. Then it will always be received as an attachment.

  • Can,t open word,PDF or excel attachments that get sent to me what am I doing wrong?

    Can't open attachments like Word,excel or PDF files I get sent what am I doing wrong?

    What have you tried?  Ifmyou just tought the attachment, it will open in sort of a quick view mode.  For all of the file types you mentioned.  If you touch and hold, a small window will open and suggest other apps, if you have any loaded, that will also work with those file types.
    So what happens when you tap an attachment?

  • Wrong decoded filenames of attachments

    Hi,
    sometimes i receive mails from windows users where the filenames of the attachments are not decoded correct. It seems that apple mail does not handle filenames encoded like this wrong:
    Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-excel;
    name="=?iso-8859-15?Q?Industrieprojekt=FCbersicht=5FWagner_20071207=2Exls?="
    Content-transfer-encoding: base64
    Content-Disposition: attachment;
    filename="=?iso-8859-15?Q?Industrieprojekt=FCbersicht=5FWagner_20071207=2Exls?= "
    other mailer have no problems with this (kmail,mutt,firebird,outlook)
    Is there any way to handle this attachments without giving them a new name manually?
    Thanks
    Olaf

    Hmm.. guess apple does not want a way for us to view the list of attachments.
    guess will have to switch my customer over to thunderbird

  • Number of mails with attachments is wrong.

    Hi all!
    First post :)
    My email app is telling me I have 4.3 billion emails with attachments.  As much as I'd like to think I'm this popular, there's clearly something wrong.
    Anyone know what's causing this, why and, most importantly how to fix it?

    Nope. In fact, until now I was beginning to think I was the only person in the cosmos affected by this issue!

  • Attachments are wrong after sending in Mail

    Hi,
    I used Apple Mail yesterday to send a message via Gmail. I attached two images that are about 1.5 MB each, thinking that I'd be able to pull them today from my Sent Mail to print, but they're showing up as 105 KB files, and not as attachments - they're just embedded in the body of the email. When I composed the email I clicked "attach" and went through the finder, I didn't just copy and paste.
    What did I do wrong, and more importantly, is there a way I can get these files today? I sent the email to a Google Group address if that makes a difference.
    Thanks!
    Mardie

    You can just Secure Empty Trash and that will delete them without an error.

  • How to open mail attachments sent in wrong format

    when I attempt to open email attachments it states; wrong fomat-may be corupt in text edit.  In file I try open but am not allowed to open/save to a new format and attchment is blank.  Do I need to install word or any other software?
    Thanks for helping

    What kinds of attachments are these? You must have an application that can open the attachments.

  • Adding Attachments in Mail, is it awful or am I do something wrong?

    I just switched over to Mail from MS Entourage 2004. When I go to add an attachment in the email, even though I have the preference in the Edit/Attachments/Add Attachment at the End of the Email selected, it sometimes splits the message I wrote when I drag and drop the attachment into the email.
    Entourage provided a little box just below the address block where you could drop the attachment in, that was so much better. Is there something I am doing wrong here, or this just the way it is?

    So, I figured it out.
    Sometimes I want the exact opposite order than is (reliably) possible given the table sort algorithm.
    If, in a table sort function, one replaces:
    return order
    with
    return not order
    (in a perfectly working sort function), it reverses the order of the sort but may not handle the last element properly.
    The reason is this:
    The table sort return value is determining whether to swap two values or not to swap them, it is *not* determining absolute ordering - if it were, then returning true would mean order one way, and returning false would mean order the opposite way.
    Enough talk - test plugin: http://www.robcole.com/_temp/TestLrPlugins/Scratch_LrPlugin_0.0.zip
    (Instructions: In plugin manager, click 'Local Test' button. Source code is in ExtendedManager.lua (tableSortTest function) and Framework/Data/Table.lua (reverseSortCopy method).

  • What's wrong in can't link Attachments to task?

    hi:
    EPM 2010
    I can link attachments to task by using project's Schedule Tools- Link To button. But in Tasks & Project Site, I can't link attachments to task,document,risk,issue. 
    The Custom Commands is ok, I can change link object but after saving nothing changed.
    Is there sth wrong in system or database?

    Hi, have you by any chance break the synchronization of project site issue/risk list?
    Have you rename/delete any of the default existing columns of Issue/Risk lists? You can also verify this from Queue Job, where you can find error that its unable to synchronize.  
    Now if above is valid, just see if you have any project sit with the default columns available, save it as a template and associate it with your EPT.
    Hope this helps.

    excel reports come as: .applicationvnd.ms-excel
    Any help as to how I can fix this?
