Re: opening files in messages on Mac

Hi Alex,

When you are in the finder, bring up the contextual menu for the file that you 
want to send, choose, share, messages. That is how you can message a file to 
someone. :) I checked my downloads folder and I could not find it. However, I 
figured out that you have to do an actual double mouse click. It’s a bit hit 
and miss though. I think the mouse pointer needs to be in the correct spot.

opening files in messages on Mac

[Christina C.]

Hello,

I can’t figure out how to open a RTF filed that was messaged to me on my mac in 
the messages/iMessages application. I tried Vo spacebar, routing the mouse to 
the file name and performing an actual mouse click. I also tried bringing up 
the contextual menu but just get some unrelated options, like clear chat 
transcript.

I’d appreciate any help. Thanks so very much.

Christina

I haven't tried this--I never knew you could send files like that via 
iMessage--but what about Downloads? Generally, things like that end up in the 
Downloads folder by default; have you looked in there? Just a thought.
