How can I get Outlook 2007 to read attachments and .eml files?
I'm a web developer, working from home. Many of my clients tell me through programs such as Yahoo Messenger and Skype conversation. Often, they send messages to an end-user for me on yahoo or Skype which are .eml files. These files describe bugs or other mistakes which experienced end users.
I don't understand why I can't read the 'eml' files in Outlook 2007. Currently, windows 2007 wants to use windows live mail to open these files.
Is there an add-on third party who will give this feature in Outlook 2007?
I solved the problem for users of 64-bit Windows 7 and Vista 64-bit users
(1) Open regedit.exe (the registry editor)
2) access HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Microsoft Internet Mail Message WLMail\shell\open\command
(3) change "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Windows Live\Mail\wlmail.exe" /eml:%1 to "C:\Program Files (x 86)" \Microsoft Office\Office12\OUTLOOK. "» EXE' /eml '%1' (don't forget the quotes!)
(4) restart your computer
In this way, windows thinks that "Windows Live Mail" is still the default program to open .eml files. However, we have changed the registry so that instead of open Windows Live Mail, we open OUTLOOK. EXE. What I mean is that if you open Control Panel, click default programs associated with Windows Live Mail .eml files, we have decked out the registry so that it will open opportunities-even if Windows has always said that it is associated with Windows Live. Confusing, I know.
The best analogy are these old commercials where "we secretly changed detergent Lisa's favorite new all temperature Cheer! In this case we secretly changed Windows Live Mail with Outlook when it comes to open .eml attachments.
In any case, this tip worked for me. I can open the .eml simply files by double-clicking them. You can always change things if you decide to upgrade to Windows Live.

How can I get Outlook 2003 and 2007, to leave a copy of message on the server? I use Outlook 2003 and it keeps pulling messages out of my email account, I want at least a copy to be left there so that I can access it from anywhere and not just a computer. Thank you.

Hi Ross WA,
The concept behind Exchange is an inbox synchronized on all devices (computers, phones, PDA...) and you do not allow to leave messages on the server when it is in an Exchange environment. For more information on leave messages on a mail server, you can visit the following link:Microsoft Answers provides no support for Microsoft Exchange, even if you can post a question in the TechNet Forums here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrclients/threadsI also recommend to contact who manages your Exchange Server as they know your specific Exchange Setup better.I hope this information helps and thank you for using Microsoft Answers!Cody C

Original title: the file format of external hard drive is the RAW and not NTFS. How can I get Windows 7 to read RAW hard drives without having to format the hard drive due to important work on this subject?
I put the hard drive on an XP and Vista machine and can read the hard drive, but not with Windows 7
Hi Zling,
It works on other OS? When did you finally read the disc and with what OS? If you can read the drive and make a backup of the data on this subject, I you suggest to backup the data on the drive and then put it in using the NTFS file system.
I hope this helps! Shawn - Support Engineer - MCP, MCDST

How can I get Snipping tools im using Vista and this control panel and then enable or disable the thing pc isn't here. Help?
Hello
You don't say which edition of Vista you are using.
Vista Home Basic Edition does not have the "snipping tool".
If you have a different edition of Vista, read the information on how to find it:
http://www.PCWorld.com/article/137099/activate_vistas_snipping_tool.html
If you have one version of Vista, other than the Home Basic edition, you already have the Snipping Tool screenshot utility: click on Start, all programs, accessories, Snipping Tool. If you do not see here, it cannot be activated. Go to the Control Panel and open programs and features (you may need to click programs first). In the left pane, click Windows turn features on or off. If necessary, click continue when you are prompted by user account control. Scroll down the list of features, check the box next to Tablet PC optional components, and click OK. Marketing of these features gives you not only the Snipping Tool, but also input panel Tablet PC, Windows Journal and other features related to the stylus.

How can I get rid of the little blue box on file Vista icons?
How can I get rid of the little blue box on file icons? Like the shortcut symbol, it is in the lower left corner. It's a solid blue rectangle with 2 white "" superior to "sign, as to point to the right." He appeared on the recently created new files, MS Word and jpg photos. I find a nuisance when you try to view photo icons because it hides part of the image.

How can I get totals show for saving e-mails from files.
My computer crashed, but I saved my TB profile. When I copied all my e-mail in the new profile files, they are all showed in the older profile a total has shown next to each folder. In the new profile I do not see how many emails are in each folder unless I do a right-click and select Properties. How can I get the column showing the totals for each folder?
In this case, I would say that you have an incompatible add-on. Maybe even the old folder columns add-on that used to power this feature.
Menu (alt + T) tools > Add-ons and disable everything that looks like it can interact with the files pane.

How can I get my music on the computer and my iphone 5s
How can I get music from my computer and on my iPhone 5s
Depends on what is your configuration. You have a music Apple or iTunes subscription game? That would change the way that you would get music on your device.
If you do not have to be, then you can follow the instructions in this article to support (since you have not mentioned anything which computer you are using, what iOS, or what version of iTunes, I put two links for iTunes 12):
12 iTunes for Windows: iPod, iPhone, or iPad sync
12 iTunes for Mac: iPod, iPhone, or iPad sync
