It's because you don't have permissions to do so. The administrator of the Google Apps account has disabled this ability. There is a setting in the admin that scopes out the permissions and share abilities.
They've selected the option that restricts other users from being able to see or edit the document unless they are within the organisation, in this ...

Well, no you can't do that.
Short answer: Either you find some other free mail service like outlook.com for your domain or you create a mailbox elsewhere and forward to your gmail inbox.
Long answer:
If you want to use your own domain with standard gmail, you have to create the email address and mailbox elsewhere and then forward those emails to your ...

Google doesn't seem to believe in standard shared mailboxes, despite their conceptual simplicity and useful collaborative features, unfortunately.
If you're on a free Apps account, the best you can do is a distribution list and send-as functionality, as you've currently got. As you've probably noticed, this means you can't see whether anyone else has ...

YouTube is not available for Google Apps customers in Denmark (and other countries).
The solution is to create a seperate gmail.com account that you use for YouTube.
You can then link the two accounts, and be signed in on both accounts on the same time.
To link the accounts, goto google.com and sign in with your new "for youtube only" account.
In the ...

UPDATE december 2012: Google Apps for Businesses is no longer free for new clients. You can only get a 30-days free trial at the moment. Source.
TechCrunch reports that “You can still get a free Google Apps account. But the only way to do that is by signing up for a 30-day free trial to its premium Goole Apps for Business service.” And then downgrade after ...

Absolutely. You can use only the Google products you want, and leave the rest unused. It is merely a matter of DNS records.
For using Gmail, you need to set the correct MX records. If you don't want to use Google Sites for your website, you don't have to do anything else - your current website will stay unchanged, while your Google Sites will be available ...

I think being it a college policy if that is something that you should not share with world or your friends outside you should not try to do that but in another case what you can do is upload that presentation on your personal gmail account and from there you can make it public or share with friends.

Definitely the new the collaborative inbox from Google Groups for Business if you are on a Google Apps for business.
If not it worth the upgrade.

A Gmail URL looks like this: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox. You might notice the 0, which is the index of the first element in the array of accounts you have, or the default account. If you change it to 1, it will automatically log you into the second account, and so on.
In modern browsers, when you log into your second Gmail account you should ...

At this point the general consensus is that there is no way to turn off this "embed images" function of the otherwise "drag-to-attach" feature of the new Gmail.
There are a few criteria to keep in mind though, circumstances in which attachment will occur rather than embedding:
Dragging in multiple images simultaneously (using multi-select, shift-click, ...

Gmail has built in function, called mail delegation. This way another person so they can read, send, and delete messages on behalf of another account. You can specify up to 10 users.
However, to first use this option in Google Apps for your domain, Administrators must first enable mail delegation by checking the Mail Delegation checkbox under Email Settings ...

There is an auditing API available in Business, Education and ISP accounts that will allow you to download the contents of a user's GMail account including spam, sent and deleted items.
Google doesn't provide a GUI for it, but some third-party software, such as Appogee DMS, does.

Looks like this Zap from Zapier should have you covered. It'll automatically check Google Calendar for you every 15 minutes or so for new events and save them to a new row in a Google Spreadsheet.
Discloser: I'm the co-founder of this company. But I still think it's a great solution. :)

You can add unlimited alias email addresses to an existing account—Google calls them Nicknames.
Access the Domain Management for your domain (e.g. https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/mysite.com/Dashboard)
Click on Organization & users
Select the account you want to add an alias to
Find the Nicknames sections and click Add a nickname
All email sent to ...

My solution Open IE (all previous Google logins were via Chrome). Then use the https://www.google.com/a/example.com route in. This worked in IE which had no Google account cookies etc... while the same URL via Chrome still went to the Google account (rather than Google Apps control panel)

Are you the account admin? You can't set up user-level forwarding if you have a free Google Apps account, but the users can configure it themselves: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=10957

All users should be able to change their passwords by default. From with in the GMail site as a logged in user (GMail or Google Apps), click the button with your email address in the top right of the screen and then select Account. From there, select Security > Password management - Change password.
Google's documentation is linked here, but it seems a bit ...

You don't. You can't create @gmail.com addresses that are managed in Google Apps. Your only option as it stands is to use the @my-domain.com.test-google-a.com aliases that Google Apps creates for each my-domain.com email address you create. Obviously, this is not a good long-term solution.
It's really not OK that your host won't let you mess with your DNS ...

It really depends on what kind of services you want enabled on the respective domains and what you need for each of them.
If you have 10 domains under your control, but 7 of them were registered to catch those spelling mistakes in accessing your main domain, then it would be good to add these 7 domains as an alias to your main domain in Google Apps.
As for ...

I assume you want to create your control panel app so that users can log in to it via Google's login services. If that's the case, you can limit access to your app in at least two different ways:
If you follow these guidelines, that is, create your control panel app with Google Apps in mind, it will be installed along your existing Google Services. As ...

In Gmail there is an IMAP Connection limit of 15 simultaneous connections. Web browser users should be ok, but tablet and phone users may receive the error message, 'Too many simultaneous connections' and then have imap be subsequently blocked.
Do you also want to allow the same level of access to the account to all users? Someone could get wily and ...

You could try setting up a collaborative inbox in Google Groups - http://www.googlegooru.com/how-to-setup-a-collaborative-inbox-in-google-groups/
This would allow an administrator to manage members' access to the group content, permissions for posting, etc. rather than giving every member the same permissions (which could be a problem if you're giving 100+ ...

RFC2822 says Date: and From: headers are required (section 3.6). It looks like Google will let you get away with just adding a From: header though, e.g.:

As you already read from the google support pages:
at this time you can't change which domain is your primary domain.
You can't do it. So there is no way of "keeping" your free google apps plan if you insist on changing the primary domain. However, keeping the primary domain is not usually a problem if all you want to do is change the "Organization ...

I also face the same problem, I manage a domain 'fptb.edu.ng' and wanted 'students.fptb.edu.ng' to be supported by the same Google Apps account.
I simply added the subdomain 'students.fptb.edu.ng' as a new domain (not domain alias as some people advice), I did all the verification as required by Google Apps (I used File Upload verification method).

In order to move my files from my school account to my personal Google account, I first share the folders to my personal account, then select all of the files and 'Make a Copy' from the 'More actions' tab.
I then log into my personal account and move the copies into a folder on that account. I can then remove the ownership from the original account and ...

A workaround this is to use DATA- Validation...
Go to Data menu, click validation..., then define your range of cells that you need to "protect". Ex: SheetA!F2:F9999. Then select Criteria: Text, equals. Then enter into the box something like: "=*" without the quotation marks. Uncheck the "allow invalid data..." box. Save.
This should only let user ...

I found a good work around;
Create a REDIRECT (NOT CNAME) (as mentioned above) to https://mail.google.com/a/YOURSUBDOMAINNAME/&ss=1
Then you will have the same functionality and the right login as your primairy domainname.

There's a Zap for that. Try creating new Google Docs from Gmail emails. Set it so that when you label your emails with a certain label it fires the Zap and creates a new document in Google Docs. Once it's in Google Docs you can set sharing permissions so colleagues can see it.
Check the Gmail to Drive Zaps to snag attachments.
