Applications :: How To Attach A File To Mail.app Without It Appearing In Message
Apr 6, 2010
I am trying to send an email with an attached resume to someone but every time I attach the pdf file it appears in the message. I do not want to send that way. I just want them to be able to save and open it.
Is there a way that Mail can work like MS Entourage or Outlook and more professionally attach files to the message? For example when I attach a picture or audio file its always embedded into the message at the bottom or top of the email. Outlook and Entourage do not work that way.
When I connect my iPhone to the Mac, the attached image always shows up ( as a window ) . I've looked under the iTunes panel for the iPhone and there isn't even a folder that it should be synced...
i am new to mac and have a new desk top. I can not attach or send attachments in mail...no problem receiving them. I am using my aol and gmail accounts in mail. If go directly to gmail i have no problems sending attachments.
The preface "*****SPAM***** " has begun appearing in some of the messages in the latest version of Mail (4.2) where's this come from and how do I turn it off as most of the time it is completely wrong?
i lost the message appearing on the bottom portion. I now have to double click message to read it. How do i fix this to put it back the way it use to be?
I have often created pdf files and attached them to email. Today I created a letter and made it a pdf. everytime I attach it to an email it becomes the body of the email. No other pdfs do this.
when i use my mac mini desk top, i am not able to attach file to my mails when i am using hotmail. i do not have the same problem using other computer, windows or other mac product. so i know it is the problem of the mac mini. i just started having this problem last couple of months, before that, everything was normal.
Popup error comes up on my screen five times at a time and immediately reappears when I click ok. I'm using Yosemite 10.10.1 now and still had the problem before I updated. In the past I saw that this issue was resolved by uninstalling pharos but I don't have pharos installed on my computer.
Popup Error Message: "Failed to listen for incoming Popup jobs. You will not be able to use Popup printing for the duration of this session. Please report this incident to a system administrator."
I am stumped as to why I can't figure this out. I have been trying to send an email to someone that needs a picture as an attachment. Every time I click on the attachment icon or button in the menu, it puts the picture in the body of the email. She needs to have it as an attachment that she can download onto her computer. There has to be a way to do this, I am just not figuring it out. Could someone please give me some insight? I have tried saving to a file and attaching it from there, tried view image as an icon, but nothing seems to be working. She also needs it in a bigger file, which I think will be solved once I can attach the file without being in the body of the text. How would I make a bigger file, from 131 KB to say 400 KB?
This has been going on lately with my computer. When I attempt to attach or search for a file to upload online, the colorful wheel of death spins and my Safari does not respond. I have to force quit Safari. I am unable to attach or upload anything because of this. I can search the web fine and everything else is okay.Â
Why can't I attach a file to an email unless I export it to Word or Excel?Â
If I create a file in Pages, Numbers, or Keynote and save it to my documents, I can't attach that file to an email. It says the file cannot be attached. If I go back to the file and export to Word or Excel, It will attach to the email. How can I fix this?
I use Google 2-step verification. With my upgrade to Yosemite, all my text messages that previously only went to my iPhone now also appear on my Macbook Pro. In general that's fine, but it's a big security problem.  If anyone gets my computer then they immediately have access to all my 2-step codes because the codes will be sent to my Macbook in addition to my phone. Previously I only had to worry about one device (my phone) and but now there is a big problem with my computer falling into the wrong hands.Â
Is this an attempt by Apple to stop people from using Google 2-step verification?Â
When I attach a jpg or pdf to a mail it shows as the whole document "pasted" into the mail.how I get the file to just show as an icon and not as a mass of pasted in docs?Â
Once in a while when I launch Mail, it tries to download thousands of mails. Not spam ones, but legitimate mails going right back to when I joined .mac in 2005. Why is this?
I have an e-mail that I tried to send using Mail 3.6. I accidently selected it to send from an account that has an error with the outgoing mail server. Usually when this happens and the error box pops up I just choose another server. The problem is that the email was going to a whole list of people and the options are lost at the bottom of the screen. I can't access the buttons. I have had this message on my screen now for over a month.
Every time I attempt to attach a file My computer hangs (beach ball). it doesn't matter what it is because every time I click on the paper clip in mail it opens the window and then just hangs there. I really need to attach documents and I can attach them when i start from the document and right click to share.
My .mac mail is no longer appearing in the desktop mail app. Cannot send or receive and folders have disappeared. Have not changed anything that I am aware of. My other account is fine. .mac mail comes in fine on iphone and ipad. When using my laptop I can get to it and send from the icould site. What would have caused this/how can I get it back? It is still listed as an account in mail preferences.
This has been occurring more often in the past week or so. I'll open a message that is from Person A with Subject A. The actual message being open will be a previous message from Person B with subject B. Completely different. It just seems like a database error or something. I am using Mail with my Gmail setup through IMAP. A restart does not fix it nor does quitting and re-opening mail. The message comes through just fine on my BlackBerry. Is there some way I can refresh the messages or something?
