How to open MAILLOC file?

The main problem with Apple Mac OS X Finder Mail Internet Location is that the MAILLOC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file MAILLOC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MAILLOC file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install Mac OS X

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Mac OS X is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mac OS X in it.

Programs to open MAILLOC file

Remember to download programs supporting MAILLOC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with MAILLOC files

If, despite the installed application, the MAILLOC file does not start in the Mac OS X application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Mac OS X application as the default for handling the MAILLOC file.

Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Mac OS X program, it is possible that Apple Mac OS X Finder Mail Internet Location requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Apple, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MAILLOC file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MAILLOC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MAILLOC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MAILLOC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MAILLOC file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MAILLOC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MAILLOC files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the MAILLOC file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MAILLOC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the MAILLOC file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
