Sharing Extension not Working

#1597

Running r5310 on Sierra. The sharing extension isn't working. Try to share a PDF from either Safari or Preview, choose MailMate, get a pop-up that says "Create new message with attachment" or something like that, click Create and then nothing happens. Happy to troubleshoot but not sure how.

    Could you try again with the latest test version: Hold down ⌥ when clicking “Check Now” in the Software Update preferences pane.

    Just updated to r5316 - I can now make it work from Safari and Preview, but it doesn't work from Word or the rest of the Office suite...

    @Thomas: Do you think it ever worked with Word/Office? I'm not sure they use the standard Share method. (Unfortunately I cannot test it since I don't have the Office apps.)

    I think you are right, I doubt it ever worked.

    I sent a feedback report to MSFT and asked them to support standard Share sheets.

    Thanks!
