Saving e-mail attachments

Anyone know of a way of saving an e-mail attachment, or the whole e-mail with the attachment? I thought if I just moved it to the "Drafts" folder, I could use it like a place to save things, but that did not work.
Any way to create an extra mail folder on the iPhone?

No, you can't create folders on the iphone or save attachments on the iphone.
If you have an imap account on the iphone, you can create the folder in the imap account using your computer. Then you can use that folder to move mail to on the iphone.
Hope this helps.

Saving e-mail attachments (NOT PICTURES)

Does anyone know if there is an app out there that will allow you to save e-mail attachments? Word,excel, or PP.

Cannot be done. There is no user-accessible file system on the iPhone. Apps that allow file storage/transfer (Air Sharing, File Magnet, DataCase) store the files 'within' the apps themselves, and can only get them transferred over WiFi with the app active.

E-Mail attachments into different content repositories

Hi Experts,
We are working on ERMS with CRM 7.0. As per the business requirement we need to use different content repositories for different markets for saving e-mail attachments.This is to give flexibility to markets on archiving. The differentiation factors for the markets is the recipient mail ID or routinng organizations.
Can anybody help us on below points
1. In standard what are the options available to save the mails and attachments
2. How to define the content repositories based on the recipient mail IDs
3. Can we use the rule policies for saving the attachments in different repositories.
Regards,
Madhu

Glad to know you got it working.
As of the question why WLM doesn't work right with PSE, please see http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/live_mail_2011. This is a known issue for PSE9 and a workaround for this is explained on the KB: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/freeze-or-error-no-email.html
Thanks

Mail attachments not saving to the folder I choose

My mail attachments are not saving to the folder I choose. When I select a file to save in the mail drop-down box, I am given options to save to a folder of my choice. However, when I select save the document is actually saved deep in some Mail Downloads area, not in my chosen folder. Has anyone had a similar problem and found a solution?

What kind of files are you trying to attach?
Is it all recipients having this problem or specific one(s)?
Could you possibly post a screenshot of the sent message from your side and a screenshot of what the recipient sees?
What happens if you send one of these messages to yourself?

Trouble saving mail attachments

Lately I have problems saving mail attachments: I first need to shorten the title and then the file does not show up in the folder I saved it too. When I want to create new folders to save attachments in, I can't because of a read-only issue. Any suggestions?

Rtfd after saving from mail without attachments!

As in the OS X before (I lately found out), my emails from Mail are saved without the attachments. The box "include attachments" is marked, of course.
There is a .rftd file resulting but it's just the text. I had a look in the package and as well there ist just the .txt file.
Since it is very handy to save an email together with all relevant attachments - especially when running an office with a lot of mail-traffic like that - I am urgently looking for an answer to my problem.
Any suggestions?

In CS3 click SAVE AS and save as CS2 file. Then try opening on Windows machine.

Saving Photo E-mail Attachments

Does anyone know how to save e-mail attachments (particularly photos) to the iPhone?

well, when I get home to my iMac, I reopen the email containing the pics so I can see them bigger, save them to iPhoto from there, and make any adjustments like cropping or color or sharpness, then I know the better version will be synced to my iPhone on the next sync. But it would be nice to just save them directly. I'm just wondering if that would get us into sync nightmares having the same pics on both the iPhone and in iPhoto ready to sync..seems like that forces the iPhoto window to come up asking you which version you want to keep.

Sending Mail attachments to windows users

When sending Mail attachments (Jpegs) to windows PCs they arrive embedded in the message body, not as an attachment that can be saved. Can I, or the recipient, do anything to rectify this?

From Mail Help:
If Windows users have trouble with your attachments
Windows users might not be able to read attachments you send, the messages they’re attached to, or both; or they might see two files when you’ve sent only one.
Try these solutions:
Choose Edit > Attachments > Always Send Windows Friendly Attachments.
Choose Edit > Attachments > “Always Insert Attachments at End of Message” to automatically have attachments inserted at the end of a message. Otherwise, some Windows recipients might not easily see all of your message because parts of it are put into attachments, which they have to open to read.
Use filename extensions, such as .doc for a Microsoft Word document, in the names of files you send to Windows recipients. This way, the files can be read by a Windows application.
If you send a file (for example, “MyFile”) to someone who uses a Windows computer, the recipient might see two files: “MyFile” and “._MyFile.” The recipient can ignore the file named “._MyFile.”
If you have a New Message window open, the Edit > Attachments commands don’t contain “Always” and they apply only to the message you’re currently composing.
If you haven’t set the default, click Attach in the toolbar of the New Message window and select the Send Windows Friendly Attachments checkbox.

Where are mail attachments stored?

On my Macbook Pro all attachments are available to be opened when I'm not connected to the internet. I assumed this was true with ipad but could not open attachments on plane yesterday. So, I assume in ipad attachments are stored on server (I use mobile me) and must be opened/downloaded individually then saved in other apps like Goodreader or Pages. If this is true, is there any way to automatically store attachments like a mac does in mail downloads?

Mail attachments are stored on the server. You need to tap on the attachment to down load them to the iPad. The same holds true for a desktop or laptop computer.
If your need to view an attachment where you don't have an Internet connection it is best to open the attachment before hand when you an internet connection.

Since upgrading to 8.0.2, I can't open mail attachments JPG

Why can't I open mail attachments photo.JPG, PDF... I could before I updated to 8.0.2

Did you have Firefox 37.0 or 37.0.1 before you updated? The changes were very minor, so I think the problem is more along the lines of a glitch than a program change...
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

Have a problem opening e-mail attachments

Hi,
i'm having a problem with opening e-mail attachments. I received an e-mail from a friend, and it had the little paper clip on it. (I believe she was sending an article. But she also sent me a photo in a separate e-mail, neither worked). But I could not figure out how to open it. I tried putting my cursor over it, but it seems that there was no way to open it. There was no way of opening it, it just had that icon, and nothing else. Why am I not able to access it? (I should point out that she has a PC. I dunno whether or not that makes a difference but I thought I'd throw that in there). Any assistance you can give me on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Have you tried saving the attachment to your hard disk and then opening it?
If there's an attachment, near the top right of the message window should be the option to save it. Click on 'save' and then try to open the file in the location you saved it to.

Default Mail attachments to "View As Icon"

Is there a way to default attachments to "View As Icon" instead of previewing them in Mail? Specifically MP3s, since there's no way to drag the preview player directly into iTunes. I know I can just right click to change, but I get a lot of emails with MP3s attached and need to pull them straight into playlists.
Thanks in advance for any help.

"Iconizer" or "attachment tamer" could be your answer.

Mail attachments don't work iphone

I have three users who updated their phones to 7.0.4. After doing so, half of the email attachments don't show up in emails. Instead, they get a "this message has no content." It happens with different email senders and different attachment file types (pdf and xls). One user specifically noted that it happened after updating to 7.0.4. Two of those users are on iPhone 4S's and another is on a variation of 5.
Any ideas as to what is causing this or how to fix it?
side note: mail attachments on those same problem emails work on the user's Outlook clients as well as Android phones (when tested).

Use Plain Text instead of RTF for message composition and place any attachments below all message text including a signature if one is used.
The Send Windows Friendly Attachments option is designed for only one thing and that is removing the Apple resource fork from an attached file which is invisible from fellow Mac users.

How can I restore saved e-mail from time machine in 10.7.2?

My saved e-mails just vanished. I have dire need to restore them. They contain vital information. Where are they in Time Machine and exactly how can I restore them? Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi James,
sorry for my delay.
You mean that you found the folders in your Library/Mail/etc... ??
Strange that you have the messages there and not in your Mail program. It is clear a matter of a database corrupted. Inside Mail there is a command Rebuild. this should do the job but there is a risk of a demage to the present Mail. Of course you can explore each single file in the librari folder but you see they are down in a comples structure and you may not find everithing.
I am not so expert to give you a safe suggetion.
Before tryoing a rebuilt I would do as follows to be more safe about the possible result.
Create a new user Account in your Mac and copy your complete Mail folder into the Library of the new account.
Then try the rebuild option in the new user account and see what happens. You today mail system will not be affected and you can decide what to do.
To postpone a rebuilt can be an option but if you have a demaged database and you se you can live with the result of a rebuild in the "test" account I would rebuild also your.
For some reason before doing any action I wouyld repair the permission and also check the HD to be sure you do not have any write-read problem.
Let me know if it works.

I can no longer share my songs as e-mail attachments. What happened?

I can no longer share my songs as e-mail attachments. The only sharing options I have are for Facebook, YouTube, Soundcloud, iTunes, and as Ringtone. What happened? I'm using the Garageband App 1.4(180.6) This happened once before, and by the time I'd gotten done submitting my question, the problem was fixed.

I powered my iPad off, and started it back up. Works fine now. huh.
