I received as an attachment to an e-mail. could someone tell me what they are? __

Looks like someone has sent you a bunch of pictures - but I wouldn't open them unless I knew that the sender.  They could be any legitimate images or they could be viruses - this is how they are usually transmitted (as attachments).  They could be the same virus so a friend according to and where and how your friend has them.  A smart user could add photos to e-mail without using attachments so that you could see without worrying about attachments (although it would be faster).

If you know the sender, then ask them to include them in the body of the e-mail message rather than as attachments.  If you do not know the person, I suggest that you just remove.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

    I followed your suggestion, but when he asks what to use to open the doc it gives two choices, 'Word' and 'other '.
    Where is the 'other' and 'Browse' you suggest?

    See pictures attached - they are for the pdf, but 'The other' and 'Browse' the options are the same.

    Location should be here:
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office15\Winword.exe
    Note: If you use a 64-bit version of Windows with the 32-bit version of Office, the default location includes (x 86) in the path.
    for example: C:\Program Files (x 86) \Microsoft Office\root\Office15\Winword.exe

    However, if you open an another doc word received by email, it is likely that Matt is correct and the word attachment document has been corrupted somehow by scan before opening.

  • Attached to an e-mail being damaged when moved.

    I a spent a strange in Mail. I think it started when I updated to Sierra late last week, but while that reasonably sure it's that I can't be 100% sure.

    My main mail account (IMAP) is a third-party provider (but this seems to be repeated with other accounts including my iCloud accounts).

    When I send an email with an attachment pdf, the recipient receives it very well, the mail is placed in my inbox sent very well and it displays fine. However when I move it to another folder for the PDF archiving seems to disappear.

    This happens when I move it to a folder of archive "on my Mac" and also to a folder in my email to iCloud account. Not every email with an attachment pdf for this although cases where they are rare, and I can't find even a boss who to and who are not. Sometimes, instead of disappearing, they will turn into an appearance of type long machine code.

    If I chose to copy the message to a folder instead of moving it, both the original in the sent folder and copy to the folder of archive are concerned.

    I think that the pdf is damaged rather than deleted because...

    • E-mails always show icon of attachment (paperclip) next to the recipient in the message list in the column to the center of the messaging application.
    • In some cases if I select several e-mail I enter to see the attachment in the graphic "multi-Courriel stack" displayed in column 3 of the messaging application.
    • If I move or copy the mail on my iCloud account, I see both a pdf on my iCloud.com phone but my phone it opens a blank document gray and iCloud.com reported as corrupt.

    If I drag mail with an attachment pdf on my desktop the same thing happens.

    This doesn't happen with the mail that I get with a pdf file, even if this mail was sent from myself as a test.

    Have you ried, in this case also, if you set "Mail > Preferences > General > remove the download" to "never" instead of one of the automatic options?

    I seem to have lost the man so attached after the upgrade of the Sierra, but did not find a model that I have disabled all the messages of all the rules that allow mail delete attachments.

    In my view, this problem is related to the automatic "Optimize Storage" and "Reduce the clutter" in Sierra.  From  > about this Mac > storage: one of the options is to keep only the latest accessories.  I never activated, but but most of my older attachments have been deleted.

  • I received recent phone calls from someone who says they are with Microsoft

    I received phone calls recently from a person saying they are with Microsoft and that my computer has been downloading unnecessary files.  They claim they know because the error and warning messages are sent to the Inbox of Microsofts.  I am reluctant to talk more with them.

    How can I be sure of who's calling?  In addition, if it is true, how can I check my computer?

    Hello

    Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

    Please see:

    https://www.Microsoft.com/security/online-privacy/avoid-phone-scams.aspx

    Microsoft issues never not solicited for phone calls of support or security.

    These types of callers can use completely fictitious names or bogusly claim to be of real companies other than Microsoft as well.
