I have some local mail folders (mailboxes) that are from an old email account that are kept locally on my Mac. The account is still configured, but "offline". It has transferred through many hardware and software upgrades over the years. I can still view the mailboxes using Mail App and read all the messages. I want to give a copy of all of the messages in a bunch of these mailboxes to someone else. I have recently discovered that when I "Export" a mailbox, the Mail App does not include any messages that contain an attachment. If I select one of these messages and then "Copy" it to another mailbox, eg: "On My Mac", only the headers are copied and the message body is blank and there are no attachments. If I do the same thing with a message with no attachment, there is no problem. I need to find a way to get all of the messages out of these mailboxes so that I can give them to someone else for review. If I look, I can find the .emlx file under ~/Library/Mail/V9/"etc"/OldMailFolder.mbox/"etc"/Messages and the attachment in the Attachments folder. Again, I can read/view all the messages in the folder. So I know all the needed information is there, it's just not being exported or copied. Does anyone know if a different email client would work? If so, which do you recommend? Or can you suggest a work around? Or is there another tool that might do the job of properly exporting a mailbox? Do you think it would make a difference if I did all the work to take the email account back online? Mail version 15.0, macOS 12.2.1

I have a macOS App that uses a custom file format (XML based). It is properly in the Info.plist as a file format so that my App is launched when this custom file type is double clicked etc etc. All that has been working fine for awhile now. If I use Finder and duplicate one of these custom files, it does the right thing and creates a "File 2.customxml" file, keeping the file extension intact. But if I AirDrop one of these files to another Mac and there is already a file of the same name in the Downloads folder, it creates the file "File.customxml 2" instead of "File 2.customxml". And of course there is no Application registered to open a file of type ".customxml 2". If a user clicks "Open" in the AirDrop popup, my App is opened with this file the first time, but not opened or informed the second time and instead it falls to another App, eg: TextEdit Is there anyway I can get AirDrop to do the "right" file naming? (This is all between 2 Macs)

I use an NSSegmentedControl "on top of" an NSBox in my App in a couple of places. (Text only, no images) In Light Mode, the control draws on top of the lines of the NSBox so it looks like the lines go behind the Control. The unselected segments are white (probably opaque) and it covers up the box lines. In Dark Mode however, it looks like the *un*selected segments are now transparent and so the lines from the NSBox show thru the unselected segments. The selected segment is completely opaque though and so the NSBox line isn't seen.What's the best way to "override" this transparency to get the same Light mode behaviour? I was hoping that I could assign a CA layer property/filter of some sort to have it always draw opaque? Or is my only solution to subclass and write my own drawRect:? Or?

I have a shipping Mac App Store App supporting macOS 10.9 and above. In several places inside the App I show a Google Map inside a WebView. I'm testing my App in macOS 10.15 Beta5 (19A526h) and none of the WebView's are working. The Webview shows a blank white canvas and there are no errors reported in the XCode console, nor in the machine console, nor any WebView delegate error callbacks. The WebView delegate callbacks all report that the URL was loaded successfully, just nothing shows up on the screen.The same binary works fine in 10.14 but does not work in 10.15 Beta. Built using Xcode 10.2.1 or 10.3 using macOS 10.14 SDK.Does this sound like a bug that should be filed? Or am I running into a security change I don't yet know about?(Yes, I know that WebView has been deprecated in favour of WKWebView but it should still work)

I have a shipping macOS App that runs on 10.9 and above that allows a user to "lookup" people in their Contacts (aka AddressBook) like:[ABAddressBook sharedAddressBook]Users that have used my app in releases previous to 10.14 already have an entry in the TCC database for my App and can turn Contact access on and off in Security & Privacy as expected.New users who run the App for the first time in 10.14 are not getting prompted to allow access or not. Did something change? Do I need to do something different to have them prompted?

I generated and gave a Promo code to a customer in Spain. When he tried to redeem it in the Mac App Store Application, he couldn't and sent me a screen shot of the error."Tambien puedes introducir el codigo a mano.Este codigo se aplicara a tu ID de Apple, xxxx@gmail.com"The Text Box shows he has entered the correct promo code,and then underneath in Red text is:MZFreeProductCode.CannotRedeemiOSAppOnDestopHas anyone else seen this? Is this a temporary problem or a Spain problem or an App Store bug? Who would I report this to?(And the promo code is definitely not an iOS App promo code)Thanks,
