How to Open Email Paper Clips


Open your email program and open the email that contains the attachment. There may be a small paper clip icon next to the email in the list. That one is just to tell you there is an attachment on the email, but you will need to open the email first to access the attachment.
Click the large paper clip icon on the individual email. The attachment may be sent through a virus scanner before becoming available, so you may need to wait a little bit before it opens. If you already have a program that can view it, it should open up. If you receive a warning such as 'blocked' or 'malicious program,' you shouldn't open it, because there is a danger of a virus. If you receive an error stating 'Windows can't open this file...' then you may need additional software or to set an association.
Look under the error message for the full file name of the attachment. The extension, or the part ofter the '.', will cue you in on the type of program required. .Jpg, .gif, .png, .jpeg and .tif require a graphics program. .Doc and .docx requires Microsoft Word or Open Office. .Xls requires Excel or Open Office. If in doubt, you can search Google for the extension to gain insight as to its requirements. Use the format '.ABC extension' in your search.
Click the circle next to 'Select a program from a list of installed programs' and click 'OK.'
Click the appropriate program, such as a graphics program, word processor, etc, and click 'OK' to open the file with the selected program. If you don't see the program, you can click 'Browse' to locate it manually in a Windows Explorer type setting. If you check 'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file' then Windows will remember your settings and use them next time it encounters the same file extension.
Associate a file type manually in Windows 7 by clicking the Start orb, typing 'Make a file type always open in a specific program' and pressing Enter. On the resulting screen, you can select the file extension and click 'Change program' at the top to change the associated program, similar to the previous step. This is also useful if you accidentally associate an inappropriate program with an extension.

How to Customize Roundcube Webmail


Download the latest version of Roundcube from roundcube.net. The Roundcube installation file is in the format of a tarball (.tar.gz) archive.
Make sure that your Web server meets the system requirements for installing Roundcube. You can use an Apache, Cherokee or Lighttpd Web server running at least PHP 5.2.1 with the IMAP extension installed. You should also have SMTP installed or the ability to use PHP as a mail server.
Install MySQL or PostgreSQL, depending on your preference, if a database engine is not already installed. Create a database for Roundcube usage. You can download MySQL from mysql.com and PostgreSQL from postgresql.org.
Install Roundcube. You can install it manually from the tarball archive file or automatically if your Web host offers the client as an option in your account's control panel.
Specify if you would like a drop-down menu of log-in options when you see the prompt to enter your IMAP host. For example: $rcmail_config['default_host'] = array('mail.yourhost.com', 'webmail.yourhost.com', 'ssl://mail.yourhost.com:993') You can always change this option by modifying the main.inc.php file in the config folder of your installation.
Test the installation of Roundcube. If it was successful, you will be able to log in to the client via your browser.

How to Install Games on a Mac (11 Steps)


Insert the game CD into your Macintosh's CD drive.
Locate the icon for the CD on your desktop and double click to open it. Most commercial software CDs start with an open window to help you find the installer application faster.
Locate the game icon or the installer icon. They will be clearly labeled by the manufacturer, and they will usually have a .app extension.
Drag the game application to your Applications folder on the Macintosh, or double click the installer to launch it. If you're supposed to drag the icon to install it, the CD will show an arrow like this ===> pointing to a picture of the Applications folder as a cue of what to do.
Follow the installer directions in the dialog box that appears on your screen to complete the installation process. You will find your game icon in the Applications folder when the installation is complete.
Leave the CD in the disk drive if the game requires it in order to run. Many commercial games will only run if the original CD is still in the machine.
