I have a Mac OS X version 10.4.11. When receiving e-mail attachments, they usually turn out to be unreadable consisting of strange letters and symbols. My Ipod Touch opens them beautifully but, unfortunately, many of them need to be printed, and I do that off my main computer. What is the problem? Is there an application that I need to download?
View 6 RepliesWhy do attachments rec'd on my mac (10.4.11) through aol have to be downloaded before being opened? Then you have to open a zip file or open a variety of folders before you get to the item sent. Other computers allow you to just click on the attachment and the file opens immediately.

I'm using MacOSX and Mac Mail. The cub scouts send a weekly newsletter via Scouttrack. When I view this on the Mac, I cannot see any attachments; it's like they are not there at all. When I view it from Outlook on a PC, it doesn't show the little paper clip, but when I open the email, then I can see that the attachments are there.
Is there any way to get the mail application on the Mac to recognize that there are attachments in the email??
Why are my attachments not showing up as attachments when recieved. They are sent from Mail as windows "friendly" - but never the less always show up inlaid in the mail. The recipient then have to ctrl clik on the documents, save them on the harddrive before being able to fx print.

Why I'm no longer able to add attachments in ANY program? It isn't limited to email (hotmail, applemail, gmail - tried them all to no avail) nor outside applications that one can post attachments to (craigslist, blog posts, facebook). I've tried Firefox and Safari, they react the same way. Basically, when I go to add an attachment either the button isn't active or it is and when I click it the screen for the open mail (et al) greys out like it's freezing and that's it. No progress, no option, no explanation. It's killing me!!!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a MacBook and for the past couple months I can not send any emails with an attachment because my computer tells me " your attachment contains a virus and can not be sent" I have tried sending a word document through my gmail, my hotmail, and even my mac email and it tells me the same thing. I don't know how to solve this problem. My screen also flickers all the time. I have spoken to apple tech support and they didn't know what to tell me. I could use any advice as to how to solve this problem, or what virus software to download.

i would like to use either automator or applescript to get attachments from certain emails i get in mail that have the subject line that contains "Database Backup" then according to the first part of the subject to save the attachment into a folder with that name.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to change the way Mail displays attachments? I hate how when attaching certain file types, such as PDF, instead of just showing multiple attachments in a nice little list, it shows you the whole freaking preview of the attachment and you lose track of what file (or type) it even is in the process.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am having issues sending attachments through my Gmail mac mail. The file I tried to send was only 23kb so I know that it was not over the limit. It sat there in the outbox for about 15 seconds and then said it cannot send it on the server. It has done this to me before with larger files that still should have been sent.
I go to my Yahoo account and it sends the same files with ease..
How come when I send an email to people and include an image file, screen shots, etc and paste them in the body of the messate, it not only shows up on the other end as attachments, but so do the images in my signature, etc.
I have hopefully a question one of you can help me with. On my MacBook when I open a file - for example a zip file that has pictures in it that I receive in an e-mail. Until recently I would clik on the zip file to open it and get a "Opening Attachments .zip" box which is normal. I would then have the option to open the file (default is Stuffit Expander") or "Save File." I always click "Save File" and until recently the file, whether it's a zip file, or just a single file, would open on my DESKTOP. Well I must have changed something because they no longer are opening on my desktop...and I'm not sure where they are opening up and being stored. So long intro to hopefully easy question. Since the Opening Attachments box doesn't have an option to where that "Save" option puts that file, where can I go to find out where it's saving these files to?
View 5 Replies View RelatedSince upgrading to Snow Leopard, I cannot add an attachment to email using Yahoo mail. Every time I select the file, Yahoo mail begins scanning and it then crashes the browser - happens with any browser and any file.
Searching around suggests there are similar problems for some users but not as pervasive.
long story short, I have set up an email signature on my mac which includes a PNG graphic. On its own this is fine and can be opened and viewed as intended at the other end by PC. However, when I include an attachment (ie word, powerpoint or excel doc) the PNG graphic and all text which should appear below the PNG graphic in the body of the email is not there when received by a PC.

I have a problem with Mail.app.
I configured my Gmail using IMAP on mail.app. And i downloaded ALL my mails and attachments, meaning it cached all attachments and emails. It used up 4 GB of my data. I am on a capped bandwidth of 5 GB per month. I thought everything was perfect and suddenly last week....I checked my cap again, and i used 3 gb in 2 days. I checked and it was mail.app downloading my mails again and caching attachments all over again.
Why is this happening, i am scared to use mail.app again, because u never know when it will start caching all my attachments again and i will use up my 4gb in 2 days.
I recently got a new Macbook Pro 15 and love it. I recently went to "all images" in my hard drive and realized that my laptop took every single email attachment from my email (this includes videos, pictures, and documents) and put it on my hard drive. I had over 3500 pictures I didn't want! Why did it do this and how do I ensure that it doesn't happen again?)
