Why do I sometimes receive email attachments in the body of the email and how can I download and print from there?

To save attachments, a couple of options include: (1) control-click on attachment, select "Save Attachment...", (2) Click on "Show Details" in the upper right corner of the message, which then gives you some attachment functions including "Save".

If I have multiple email accounts, how can I prevent one of them from sending email?

If set up multiple email accounts in Thunderbird, how can I prevent one of them from sending email, while allowing others to send?

Simple answer:
do not use the email address when sending or replying or forwarding emails. Sending is not automatic, you have to generate the email and click on a Send button.
You could use an smtp server that will not allow sending using the incorrect server for the email address, so that it cannot send, but if you accidentally use the email address you may get an error message, but at least the email will not be sent. Do this here:
Tools > Account Settings for the mail account.
bottom right Outgoing Server - select one that will not accept sending using wrong email address
OR
in Outgoing Server(SMTP) select the server you are using for that account
click on 'Edit'
deliberately make an error in the server name - remove the port details etc.
So the details are wrong and cannot send.

If Facetime is not present on the phone you have, you cannot download it. The model of phone you purchased cannot have Facetime on it, period.
There is nothing to be done to download it - it's not possible.

I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the mail "file" has 2GB. How can I permantely delete this information from my iphone4?

How can I permantely delete email information from my iphone4?
I deleted all my emails from inbox and trash, but the Mail "file" still has 2GB...

Does anyone have an answer to this problem? It's been 4 or 5 days now and iCloud still says I have 0kb of 5GB available, and 6.1GB of mail on iCloud. I guess that's better than yesterday when it said I had 8.3GB of mail. Does anyone know if it simply takes Apple a week to actually empty a mailbox?
thanks in advance, hopefully tomorrow it says I have only 4GB of non-existent mail and I can start using it again...

I cannot download itunes period . why and how can i download it

why can i not download itunes.?? help please thanks

What happens when you try? Depending on the edition of Windows you are running, there are three variants of the most recent version of iTunes, with direct links to the installers as follows:
iTunes 12.1.2.27 (32-bit) - iTunesSetup.exe
iTunes 12.1.2.27 (64-bit) - iTunes6464Setup.exe
iTunes 12.1.2.27 (64-bit "for older video cards") - itunes64setup.exe
The third of these - which is actually the 32-bit application with a 64-bit installer - should be used if you get a warning about video card incompatibility when you install the standard 64-bit version, but also may resolve issues with playback, QuickTime compatibility, and problems with some third-party applications (including Outlook).
See turingtest2's notes on Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates for more details if you're still having problems with installation.

Have you synced with this compouter before?

I have these black boxes around all the images i add. why are they there and how do i get rid of them?

i have black boxes around all the images i bring into pages. why are they there and how can i get rid of them?

Pages rememebers the last setting you used on images.
So if you had a border on the last image the next one you bring in will have one too.
To change that select:
Inspector > Graphic > Stroke > None
Spend a little time exploring the menus and particularly the Toolbar and Inspectors whcih are in reasonably logical progression from big things down to smaller details and clearly labeled.
It is also possible that you have show Layout on which outlines objects on th screen so you can see what's what. To change that:
Menu > View > Hide Layout

Why are my attachments loaded into the body of my email

I just started using mail instead of Thunderbird. When I want to include an attachment (a document) in an email, it opens into the body of my letter instead of being an attachment that the sender can open. How to change that?
imac running maverick 10.9.2

Yes, I am the sender and the problem originated with me, not the recipient. (I had already selected "always insert attachments at end of message" but it doesn't seem to hold after logging in to mail again. ) Everytime I chose a file to attach from my desktop or documents, it inserted itself completely open in the body of my email, directly beneath the text. Whenever I tried to delete only the attachment, it saved a copy of my message in the trash (including the open attachment) This continued despite quitting mail, restarting, and even after updating to 10.9.2. This evening I got the attachment to paste as a thumbnail, so I don't know what is going on. I sent a test message and it seemed ok. Hopefully it will last. Could this have been cause by an email I received with a document open in the body?
Another question...I notice when I view messages in my "sent' folder as a list, there isnt any attachement icon like I see in my inbox..why? If i open the individual message, the paperclip icon is displayed

Why do the attachments I'm trying to send open in the body of my email rather than as an attachment icon?

I'm having trouble with attachments. When I select a document to attach, in either Word (doc) or pdf, sometimes the whole file opens in the body of the document, instead of just appearing as an attachment icon. I can't figure out why this only happens sometimes...seems to happen more with documents I've scanned in and saved as either Word or PDF files - what might I be doing wrong?

There is nothing wrong. I never understood why Apple Mail shows attachments randomly as icon or inline documents or a mix of them.
If you ctrl+click the PDF or Word document you should be able to choose from the menu, show as icon.
If you want to permanently show the attachments as icons, close Apple Mail, open Terminal and issue the following command
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes

Help-Attachments showing up in the body of my email

I would like to know how to keep my attachments from showing up in the body of the emails I send and receive. We often send a catalog as an attachment. When a customer opens the email, and when we open the emails sent, the attachment is always open and included in the body of the email. How can stop this from happening? It is a nuisance in many cases.
Thanks, Cindy

David,
Look closer -- I am Ernie, and it was I, and not Cindy who posted.
What I am saying is that what you see in the Compose window is only Mail performing what is called View in Place. It is unrelated the file or image being an attachment, and it does not embed it. Just because you saw the image View in Place, does not determine whether the recipient will see it that way -- that is solely determined by the functioning of their email client.
There is a reason to see the JPEG display, and that is for verification that it is the one you intended. If you don't want to see it after it first appears, Control-click on it, and choose View as Icon. However, that will have no impact on what is sent, or how the recipient receives it.
AOL is different, in that if it is showing the image in the message, it is embedding it, and not attaching it. This often causes the recipient various problems, including sometimes inhibiting the saving the file on the recipient computer HD.
Even with AOL and attaching, if received by Mail or by Thunderbird, for example (settings may apply) the JPEG you attached will Inline View.

HT1338 When I email an attachment with "Always Sent Windows-Friendly Attachments" checked, the result is a picture embedded in the body of the email, not a attachment. What am I doing wrong.

When I email an attachment (a .jpg file) with "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" checked, the result is a picture embedded in the body of the email, not a attachment. What am I doing wrong.

1. "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" has nothing to do with the display of attachments on either your machine or other ones. It's an esoteric setting that strips the resource fork from Mac files (that might have them) which could apper as a duplicate file on the Windows machine.
2. Send Plain Text emails. Then it will always be received as an attachment.

Why do my older emails have no content in the body of the message?

My older emails in my folders show the sender, addressee and subject but no content in the body of the message. Why is that the case? I use my email to save important messages.

This is the Mac Pro desktop forum.
In the received message does the subject appear correctly?
Is just the body message field blank?
What app is the recipient using?
Can they try another pp?
Is there anything strange in the body? Like special characters?

HT1414 Why do I get 'This message has no content' with some e-mails on my iPad when the same messages can be received on my MacBook Pro without any problem, and how can I fix it?

Why do I get - 'This message has no content' - with some e-mails on my iPad when the same messages can be received on my Mac Book Pro without any problem and how can I fix it?

Is this a POP (POP3) email account? If so, you MacBook Pro may be retrieving the email and deleting it off the server before your phone can. Another possibility is that both your Mac and your phone are trying to retrieving it at the same time, and the POP server, which will only allow a single email client connection at a time, is locking out your phone resulting in the "has not been downloaded from the server" error.

How can i download or open email attachments on iphone 6

Hi,
How can I download or open email attachments on my iphone 6. attachments like excel, word or pdf files.
Bichitra

Hello Bichitra84,
You should be able download and view most attachments from within the Mail app on your iPhone. All you would need to do is tap on the attachment to download it and then tap it again to view it. Take a look at the article below for more information.
