Mac users receive Winmail.dat file instead of the PDF file

Use Adobe Acrobat Standard DC and Outlook 2013. When I send a PDF file from my PC with a Mac clients often have difficulty to open the attachment. Instead of a PDF file, they see a winmail.dat file. How can I fix?

  • Gmail has adequate fixation, Mac Mail has winmail.dat

    Hello. One of my colleagues of the company tried to send an attachment to my email of company but in Mac Mail (Yosemite), comes as winmail.dat attachment. I send to my Gmail address instead, and it is also for Mac Mail as winmail.dat. Then, I loaded my Gmail in Chrome (to try to eliminate Mac Mail of the equation) and see the three PDFs at the bottom of the message as it should. I downloaded them (Macbook Air) of chromium as a zip (download file type by default, I guess, when there are multiple files). I opened the zip file and files three PDF are here.

    I'm sure that the sender attached not a zip - archive she joined three PDF files by e-mail. Mac Mail is somehow convert these three PDF files in a winmail.dat which I do not know how to unzip or treat. I have yet to see it from other shippers, but that the problem occurred in Mac Mail if she sent to my address, or my Gmail address AND since Gmail itself in Chrome was fine, the problem seems to be local to my BONES.

    Any advice? Thank you.

  • I'm a new mac user. I transferred files from my pc to mac successfully. They were in the 'documents '. Today, I opened the mac and there is only one file in "documents" - I had worked on.  Where are the others? Help please.

    I'm a new mac user. Successfully transferred all of the files from my PC to MacBook pro. All of this is to be seen in the documents. Opened now MacBook and only one file to be seen in 'documents. Where can I find the others. Convinced they are there somewhere, help please.

    The Mac is in itself a system multi-user, whether you choose to create a user or a large number.

    All users you already created can be seen in

    System Preferences > users & groups

    The files for each user are kept separated, protected of the subdirectories of the Directory/Users:

    / Users

    your User_short_name folder

    file user_short_name to your spouse

    record your child User_short_name

    record your dog user_short_name

  • Can I remove the winmail.dat files?

    A recipient asking several times if I sent his attachments, when there is not, or cannot open a PDF encoded winmail.dat.  Can I fix this?

    I was composing in plain text format, and it had the value to convert RTF to plain text, but Outlook by default to allow the program to decide the format to send my e-mail signature, which created a link.  Here, my email is passed the link.

    Thank you.  Another friend in a large company blocked my emails.  Maybe I have solved my problem.

  • Facebook watch notification "you have received a new message" instead of the text preview...

    Facebook watch notification 'you have received a new message' instead, the preview of the text... because it did before... I have the chrome browser and Mac OS X Mavericks. Something has changed this week or so because two weeks ago it was beautiful. I read an excerpt of the message right in the notification Center, it was really cool!

    Is someone has the same behavior now?

    Welcome karffe,

    I can see why it is important to be able to see your notifications completely when they arrive and I'll be more than happy to help resolve this.

    On your Mac, in the upper left corner, select the Apple logo and select System Preferences. Once here, select Notifications, then you should see listed Facebook. Click on Facebook and then make sure that the alert style is set to "alerts." This should now give you an overview of what talk notification.

  • AutoComplete suggests my user ID and date of birth on the log in page of my savings account - how can I stop this?

    Most of the time the AutoComplete is really useful. However, when I connect my savings account, my user ID and date of birth are available, allowing anyone on my PC to check my account (a security code is required for all transactions which does not seem to be autocomplété!) - how can I turn off this please? This started because I reset Firefox (because of the slow, such as recommended by Firefox). Thank you.

    I know how you can do this:

    1. Delete an AutoComplete suggestion menu entry drop-down
    2. Disable completely auto form fill
    3. Clear all saved form autocomplete entries
    4. Entered AutoComplete clear form selected (using an add-on)

    but I don't think that Firefox has a built-in feature to be selective in what he recorded in the first place.

    For items numbered above:

    (1) when the suggestion appears, use the arrow keys on the keyboard to select the suggestion unwanted in the list and press the delete key.

    See: control if Firefox automatically fills in forms.

    But I don't think that this blocks Firefox to save again in the future.

    (2) change your privacy settings in the Options dialog box

    "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Options > privacy

    If set ' Firefox will be: remember history ' to take ' conservation rules: use the custom settings for history. " Then you can uncheck the box ' Remember search and form history.

    (3) clear all AutoComplete form data saved

    To clear everything, you can use:

    button '3-bar' menu > history > clear recent history

    If you do not see a list of check boxes, click the Details button. Deselect all categories other than "Form & Search History" for those who are kept. At the top, set the time interval, and then click clean now.

    (4) clear SOME saved form autocomplete entries (when you are not currently using the form)

    You need an add-on for that. In the past, I've only tried this one, but there might be other good: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/form-history-control/

  • Why data is missing when the PDF is converted to excel?

    I converted bank statements to Excel and single instruction converted correctly.  All the others had bank statement lines, but no data.  Do not understand why a single pdf converted correctly and others not?

    Hi ks3751,

    It's probably the quality of the PDF you want to convert to Excel (they all come from the same bank)? Depending on how the Bank generates these statements, it is possible that they are not written spec, and does not contain all the necessary information to ensure a clean conversion.  Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert text and shape... | Adobe Community.

  • If I have 1 CC account, can I download my apps on a PC, then on a MAC at a later date (remove them from the computer if necessary?)

    I think signing up CC, especially since it's a bit cheaper now. Are the apps downloaded on a single machine, or are they just apps that I can use it on any machine? I am currently working on my pc, but I know I'm going to work early next year that is all based Macs to come. If I've signed and applications downloaded on my pc, can I download them at a later date on my (when they) mac?

    See you soon.

    Hello

    You can have the creative cloud installed and signed in on two computers as long as you don't use it on one at a time. Download and install as you did on the first computer, sign in to your Adobe account on the Adobe using your Adobe ID website, download the desktop app from clouds, then download the software. Sign on a computer that should not be used: log in and log out of the desktop Adobe Creative Cloud application

  • Print to PDF, high quality printing. Creates .ps instead of the PDF file

    I want to create a PDF (from a PDF file) using Print-> Adobe PDF. I chose that properties-> high quality printing. This used to create a PDF document, but now he wants to write it into a .ps file. How to change that? I saw a question/answer older who said uncheck "print to a file", but I do not see this option.

    Click on the Advanced button in the print dialog box and make sure that "Print to a file" is not checked.

  • I received a file winmail DAT - how to open it?

    I received a file winmail DAT - how to open it.

    I do not know.  I do not have a file association for. DAT files (Start / Control Panel / Default programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program / analysis then list for.) (DAT).  I guess you have not either.  Your best bet is to communicate with the person who sent you the file and find out which program was used to create it-then maybe you can get the program or to find a drive for this program.  Good places to watch once you know the program are www.tucows.com and www.download.com.  Here for example is an option for some .dat to open the files that may or may not work with your (given the MANY programs produce and, even once, you need to know what program the file): http://www.winmaildat.com/ (since you say it's a winmail.dat file I hope that this link could actually work).  If it's not, and if you find the name of the program that generated the file, we can help you find something to use to play with - but we need this name (and version number).

    Good luck and I hope this has helped. Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.
