Problem sending files from Pages via email

I am using a Yahoo business mail account. All other emails send just fine using Mail. When I try and send a document out of Pages, it brings up the compose new mail fine and it makes the "whoosh" noise indicating that it's been sent. The recipient doesn't receive it, and it doesn't show up in my "sent items" folder. I tried to send using both wifi and 3G for interest's sake, and neither works.
I'm not sure what to try to fix this, or if it's a limitation of the SMTP server, or what. Any help would be greatly appreciated - my iPad Pages is gimped without the ability to share documents by email...

Welcome to Apple Discussions
iWork documents are packages, a special type of folder. Even though with iWork '09 & iWork for iPad they no longer appear as packages, they still are. On a Mac right-click on the file & look for show package contents. If that option is not there it is a "flat-file" but it can still be unzipped.
Anyone with Stuffit Expander installed with default settings & who saves Pages files to the Desktop will find folders instead of just the document. This is because Stuffit "sees" the file for what it really is, a package. You can check for yourself by changing the extension from .pages to .zip & unzip the file. You can't e-mail a folder which is why many mail clients balk. Apple Mail will automatically zip a folder, other e-mail clients don't, especially web-based e-mail. I think you may be mailing as a Pages document rather than Word or PDF.

  • When I try to send file from Reader as email it is attached without .pdf extension

    Hello,
    When I try to send file from Reader as email it is attached without .pdf extension.
    What could be a cause of this problem?
    TIA.

    Hello I got more info about this strange scenario. This happens when our user want to send a pdf file embedded on www page. Web application uses this control to display pdf files: Winnovative PDF Viewer Controls for ASP.NET and Windows Forms
    It is strange that when I try on my computer I will get file name with pdf extension, but people in different location get it without .pdf extension. I have no idea what happened, and now I am not sure if it is problem with Reader.
    User reports that he uses Adobe Reader version 11.0.0

  • I'm having a problem sending a word doc via email. I have Mac for Office 08, when I save the document as a .doc or .docx, and send it to someone, they receive it as a blank document. Yet, when I open it on my Mac, it has a "word" icon. How do I fix?

    I'm having a problem sending a word doc via email. I have Mac for Office 08, and I'm using Mavericks OS. When I save the document as a .doc or .docx, and send it to someone, (doesn't matter if its safari, chrome or firefox or on my yahoo or gmail accounts) they receive it as a blank document. Yet, when I open it on my Mac, it has a "word" icon and I can read it. How do I fix?

    I suggest you post on the Microsoft Mac forums since it's their software you're having issues with.

  • Cannot send files from phone via bluetooth to iMac

    I bought the latest Imac about 2 wks ago and I have had a Mac before,it was my very first computer. I am a seller on Ebay and use Bluetooth to send photos to Computer as my camera is awol. I have been able to pair my Samsung Galaxy Ace and my old Nokia 6210 to the Imac no problem.Its when I go to send a file from either phone that it wont send. The exact words displayed on my phoone are ''Remote device rejected your request''. Both devices are visible but when I click on my phone say the Samsung in the Imac list it has beside it ''not connected''. How do I enable the Bluetooth to accept my Samsung or Nokia as i really need it

    Well you must enable bluetooth sharing. To do so, just go to Preferences>Internet & Wireless>Bluetooth>Sharing Setup(at bottom right)>tick mark bluetooth sharing. Thats it and the next time you won't have a problem.
    Note: Open padlock or else you won't be able to  make any changes

  • Is anyone having problems sending files from SendNow now that they've used Send?

    I sent a couple files in Send and now I cannot send files in SendNow.  It tells me to check my internet connection and that it cannot send the files.  I've reset the internet connection and it still does not work.  I even tried send a file through Send and it worked fine, but when I went back into SendNow I got the same message. Are other people having issues with this? Any suggestions?

    It is very strange because I've always used Google Chrome to use SendNow
    and I've never had a problem until this morning after trying Send.  I went
    it and tried it in Firefox and it worked fine, but still doesn't in Chrome.
    Not sure what happened because I used Send in Chrome and it worked fine.

  • Sending edited web page via email

    I received via email a web page which someone asked me to change. I'm a painter not a web designer and I know just enough to be dangerous. I managed to get the page into Dreamweaver and edit it but now I don't know how to get it back to the person, presumably via email. Or maybe there's another way. I read in a forum that you can post it, but I'm not sure how to do that either. Thanks for any help someone can offer. Sarah.

  • I am unable to send photos from iphoto via email as an attachment to be downloaded onto another computer.  i thought e-mail would automatically pick up these photos if mailed out so they could be downloaded.

    At one time I was able to send photos from i photo library and I assumed the receiver could open these and download them into their apple computer (family).
    I have tried to send photos from library or folder as attachment but I am also unable to do this.  How do I send pictures as e-mail attachments which can be opened up and downloaded to another computer?

    I've managed to sort out my own problem!!  Shall write it down in case there are others out there who have a similar problem.   With iPhoto open, click on iPhoto on the top menu bar.  Click on preferences.  Then click on account.  This let me change the details such as the user name and password.  Luckily I played around with a couple of my usual passwords, and found one that worked.  Have now written it down!!!! 

  • UNABLE TO SEND PHOTOS FROM IPHOTO VIA EMAIL

    I have OSX Mountain Lion  10.8.3, and IPhoto 11.  Until recently I have been able to share pictures via email directly from IPhoto.  All of a sudden I get the error message "username and password not recognized."  I have Verizon FIOS.  I tried all of the suggestions in previous discussion and none seem to work.  I tried changing the ports suggested. deleting and reentering all the pertinent data, checking and unchecking SSL  The port on my email account is 110 and on IPhoto it is 587.  I tried matching them but nothing seems to work.  The user name and password have not changed and I know them.   I have doubled check everything I can think of.   I think it worked fine before IPhoto 11.  It has just changed all of a sudden.  I am really flabbergasted.  Please help.

    Since you've tried all the fixes already what's left is to set Mail as your email client in iPhoto's General preference pane and use it.  If you want fancy layouts you can use the photo stationary layouts that are available in Mail:
    Using Mail as your client will also give you a Sent copy.

  • I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. However received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately. Ideas?

    I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. It opened normally. However, after editing, received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately and presumed they would work without a hitch. Am I missing something?

    It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • Facing problem with the code for sending an .xls attachment via email, a field value contains leading zeros but excel automatically removes these from display i.e. (00444 with be displayed as 444).kindly guide .

    Facing problem with the code for sending an .xls attachment via email, a field value contains leading zeros but excel automatically removes these from display i.e. (00444 with be displayed as 444).kindly guide .

    Hi Chhayank,
    the problem is not the exported xls. If you have a look inside with Notepad or something like that, you will see that your leading zeros are exported correct.Excel-settings occurs this problem, it is all about how to open the document. If you use the import-assistant you will have no problems because there are options available how to handle the different columns.
    Another solution might be to get familiar with ABAP2XLS-Project. I got in my mind, that there is a method implemented, that will help you solving this problem. But that is not a five minute job
