Emailing a link to the server? Please help.
Working on FCP 5 and Mac OSX. I would like to be able to email my boss and tell him to look at a spot on the server. He usually gets lost navigating through our system. Is there any way to email a link to a folder on our internal server?
Basically, I want him to click on a link and a window opens with the .mov file staring him in the face.
Could you also talk him into giving me a raise?

This is a networking issue and you must resolve it with your IT people.
If your boss is running Winderz and your server is a Mac, not likely. If you’re boss is running a Macintosh and your server is a Winderz box, not without IT’s help.
If your boss and the server are both Winderz boxes, it’s not an issue at all except your Mac email app may not like the file path you attempt to paste into the message.
There are million stupid things that can prevent your boss from getting to the file if he/she is incapable of understanding file paths. we have found it’s easier to post a clip on our .mac account and give clients a simple URL.

This is my standard sigfile so do not take it personally: “For crying out loud, read the freakin’ manual.”
