I received an email .wmv attachment. Is there a Apple application that can play this file type?

I have a problem that when selecting a file that is either an attachment in email or is in my finder, double clicking on it fails to load the associated application successfully. For example, selecting a pdf file results in the pdf reader logo appearing on the lower bar on the screen, bounces up and down as if it is doing something, but just continues to bounce. I have to force quit it, then go to my application folder to load reader directly, and from within the reader I can then go and select the file. This isn't an application specific issue (It does it with Excel, Word etc).Â

E-mail software: Microsoft Entourage. Now, after two years without trouble, I unable to send e-mail with attachment up to 190 kb. All that over 190 kb and text message I able to send. And receive all (with or without attachment).
I have tried with many mail software, like Thunderbird (and others by third parts). I have tried with different SMTP. I have tried to reinstall the connection with Network Control. The connection with my Internet Provider is ok. The email (with or without attachment up to 190 kb) from my PC with Outlook, can run (same connection of Mac). Web mail is ok. Internet connection is ok. I tried a lot ways to resolve, but I failed.
For work, I need to send photos to my editor via email. In Mail, the jpgs automatically become embedded in the body of the the email, but my editor would prefer to receive them as attachments. Is there any way to send photos as attachments in Mail, rather than embedded email itself?

I have encrypted my macbook pro hard drive with FileVault and now find powerpoint files attached to emails are rejected by some recipients, with the following bounceback message:"An email you have sent has been blocked.This email has NOT been delivered to its destination as it contains an encrypted or password protected attachment. Please resend without the password protected attachment and it will be delivered to its destination"Other file types (jpeg, pdf, word) seem to get through and resaving the PowerPoint file as PowerPoint 97 let it go through. The presentation is not locked or password protected.

Yesterday I tried to send a Quicktime movie that I made with iMovie as an attachment to an email. I knew something was wrong when it kept "sending" for hours. I could not get it to stop, no matter what I tried. I used Force Quit on Mail: no effect on the spinning circles. I shut the computer down and then restarted. Signed into Mail--> still had spinning circles. I took the mailboxes offline and then put them back online: spinning circles remained.
I deleted all of the outgoing messages several times, but whenever I came back, they reappeared. I shut off my computer overnight. This morning the spinning circles are gone, and a static circle remains, and I am unable to send or receive email. What can I do? I have four Mac mail accounts and they all have important information in them. How can I unfreeze my mail? BTW, the gmail accounts that go to the mac account are ok--it is just the "@mac.com" accounts that are frozen. I cannot find this in a search.
I have an email that I can read the attachment on my IPhone 4, on my IPad 2 and cant see it on my MacBook Air? I need to print it.

Right click a file, and open it as an attachment in Mail?
Received an email attachment jpg (777 KB) which was clearly visible in the message window as well as when I opened the attachment itself -so no problem. However I needed to have some alterations made to this file (business card) I duly received two consecutive attachments, which were the alterations to my business card (the 777 KB file. These two files were now 1.3 MB and 1.4 MB in size, they appeared in the message window as large black images (nothing visible) which I was unable to open.As I did not know the problem, suggested to the sender to perhaps reduce the file size, as I was able to open the original file. The sender re-sent the re-sized file now reduced to 744 KB, similar in size to the first one, again appears as a large black image.Now we are at a stalemate, the sender says he has four computers and the images appear fine on all four

I am regularly receiving GIF attachments from friends by email that show some nice and funny animated cartoons on my laptop and/or iPod touch email.
But when I try to forward them, either from the iPod or from the MacBook, they arrive at the destination showing a small cross instead of the animated cartoons?
Same thing happens when I try to forward a mail that I receive as an HTML page. It will only forward as a text page full of unreadable scripts?
Could someone please tell me if I am missing something in my System to allow me to forward those mails exactly as I receive them?
A friend of mine sent me an attachment in pages format and I am having problems opening onto my PC is either notepad or microsoft word.

View 12 Replies View RelatedI have a mail attachement with the extension .gem, and I would like to use that attachment as the argument to a java .jar program. I've figured out how to start the java program using a shell script like this:
#!/bin/bash
java -jar /Users/geoff/Programs/program.jar $1
If I name this script program.sh and change the permissions to allow execution, I can successfully run the program by typing this in a terminal window:
./program.sh filename.gem
However, when I try to open the attachement filename.gem from mail, it won't let me use program.sh to open the attachment. The OS seems to make a distinction between a file and an application that is independent of the execute permission on the file. After doing some reading about this, I tried Automator. One of the Automator actions is to execute a shell script, so I added that action to my Automator project and typed in my command:
java -jar /Users/geoff/Programs/program.jar $1
I also changed to input from options from "stdin" to "argument". I then saved the Automator project, and was able to associate that project with the .gem file attachment from mail. The java program started, but behaved as if the $1 argument was not included. (Perhaps I just need to leave out the "$1" in my Automator command, trusting Automator to insert the argument in the proper place. If that theory is correct, my program is interpreting the text "$1" as an argument, which would be consistent with the behavior that I'm seeing.) I've seen other suggestions to use AppleScript, but it seems to me that there ought to be some simple way to do this. (I just got a Mac, by the way. I was able to do this in Windows using MIME type definitions and a .bat file. The difference is that Windows allowed me to consider program.bat as an executable, but Mac OS doesn't consider program.sh to be an executable.)
I have an issue emailing MS-Office documents that I can't figure out.- I have two systems, 24" iMac and 13" unibody Macbook both running SL.- I have both Office 2004 and 2008 installed on both.- I have two user accounts on each machine. (Mine and the wife's)- When I attach Ms-Office documents to an email from my account on either machine, PC users can open them fine.- When my wife attaches MS-Office documents on either machine, PC users cannot open them.- We are both in school and often upload documents to our school's website. The same behavior is noticed.
