GAWDDAMNWTFFFFFFFFF????????
Can anybody please tell me why the EFFING HELL Gmail will not let me attach a Pages document I created myself, from the documents folder on my Mac mini???? I can see it in the attachment finder, but it's grayed out and won't let me select it.
WTF??? I don't understand! It's a document. I created it on my computer. Why can't I attach it to an email?
This is pushing me into HULK FUCKING SMASH territory.
Maybe gmail doesn't like the fact that the file extension is more than .xxx in that pages documents are .pages on the extension. Might be worth a try to change that.
Your Pages "document" is actually a folder with a bunch of smaller files inside. You need to zip it up first or something.
Yeah, Pages is weird. Its documents are really folders (neat side note: Mac applications are ALSO really folders, filled with all the support files and stuff. 'Swhy you can install just by dragging for most programs.).
If you need to print it, export it as a PDF first. If they need to edit it in Pages at the other end, you'll have to zip it up. (ctrl-click the file in the finder, choose "Create Archive")
I'm just using the TV as a monitor for the Mini. What advantage does AppleTV have over that?
I kind of want one, but I don't know why.

AH!
Scola, if you weren't on the other side of the continent from me, I'd totally kiss you right now.

No need for editing on the other end. It's just a work invoice that I want to email out so I can get paid.

If you don't already have a mini, it's cheaper?
Gris, you'd totally get a kiss, too.

That's the only reason I'm looking at it. The mini I would put there instead would be over a grand. It probably does some fancier stuff out of the box with respect to getting media off of other devices, but I'm sure it's nothing someone hasn't written for the Mini itself in their spare time.
