Attaching Files to Yahoo Mail

Hello,
I am trying to attach files that I have just recently imported from my digital camera to Yahoo Mail. When I go to attach files, then to Pictures on the menu, I then click on Iphoto library, thats as far as it will go unless I want to attach the entire library (which I don't). Does anyone know how I attach the specific files I want? Thanks for all the help!!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.

  • Safari 5.0 freezes after attaching files in Yahoo Mail

    Since upgrading to Safari 5, I cannot use Yahoo mail after attaching a file to a message. The program acts like there is a dialog box open and it is waiting for a choice to be made, but there is no dialog box.

    HI,
    BrowserPlus is causing problems when attaching files to Yahoo mail. It's not compatible with Safari 5.

  • Cant attach files using yahoo mail

    When I attempt to attach a file in yahoo mail i get an error message.  I can attach the files if I use Firefox

    The problem is Safari 6...it's buggy and wouldn't allow me to attach any file types to a yahoo email note.  I downloaded Chrome and everything works fine.  This is my first Apple machine and I have to say I'm disappointed in their Safari browser.  The sales guy said I was "purchasing an elegent system that would work right out of the box", I  didn't anticipate having to do work-around solutions on day one.  What a joke.

  • Lion running Safari 5.1 cannot attach files in Yahoo Mail

    I've seen a bunch of various threads on this over years, but none have answered it for my situation.
    In this case clicking the "Attach" button in Yahoo Mail does absolutely nothing.  No freezes or crashes - it just will not invoke a file tree to pick the attachment from.
    I just migrated over frrom a 2009 Mini to a 2011 Mini.  The exact same browser version running in Snow on the old Mini was working perfectly 2 days ago.
    Thoughts?

    Thanks Carolyn - Done as per your suggestion! 
    I'm pretty sure this is something I couldn't do in Snow?  (I''ve only been using Lion for a few days now). - And/or this is something Yahoo only started to allow recently - before, in the old days POP Mail was an add on Pay feature.  IMAP is new(ish) for them.  Maybe this is something I never looked for either (old dog/new tricks)
    Speaking of Lion - looking to make sure the Yahoo messages were copying off of the Yahoo servers I looked for them in -  Home/Library/Mail - but that's hidden in Lion now.  Go-> ~/Library reveals that it's all downloading fine.
    FWIW - The "ATTACH" button started working again for me this morning without doing a single thing.  No restart, didn't quit anything - left the Mac to sleep for 5 hours and tried again and it's working!  Strange.

  • I can no longer attach files in Yahoo mail since upgrading to FireFox 4.0.1. I click the "attach" button and nothing happens - no file list to select from appears; nothing.

    Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1 the "attach files" function in my Yahoo Mail account no longer functions. When I click the "attach files" button nothing happens - nothing. No file selection box opens, no error message appears, no pinwheel of death, nothing.
    The "attach files" button is no longer 'hot' in FF 4.0.1 either = the "little hand" icon does not appear when I scroll over it. Other action buttons are still 'hot' ("attachments", "emoticons", "format", "hide bcc"etc.) - just not the "attach files" button.
    The Yahoo Mail "attach files" function still works when I use my Safari browser, however. So, it appears to be a FF4.0.1 issue.
    (Intel MacBook, Snow Leopard, 2gb ram, 360gb hd)

  • In Firefox, can't attach files to Yahoo Mail outgoing messages. Yahoo Mail works fine in Internet Explorer though.

    Since yesterday, when I switched from Comcast to AT&T as my broadband internet connection, I have not been able to attach files to my Yahoo mail messages using Mozilla Firefox. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer, but my default browser is Firefox by choice. Is this a Yahoo issue or a Firefox issue? Can you help me resolve it?

    Not helpful. 'clearing Firefox's cache' is not helpful, since 'cache' doesn't show up in any of the Firefox pulldown menu choices (wasted time looking for that), and the plethora of things 'recent' and 'history' to choose to act on in these menus is also a possible waste of time, not to mention removing useful info for no reason.
    I, too, have had this problem 'intermittently' for many months, always involving the 'first' file to attach in a Yahoo! email, and I've always used this workaround OK: click on the filename showing as 'being attached' (while Yahoo's doohickey round spinner denoting 'in progress' whirls and whirls to no effect) and use "Remove File"; THEN, REPEAT 'attach file' task & it then works, if slowly. After that for the same email, attaching add'l files NEVER HAS A PROBLEM.
    SO, now today, without any software update yet (I've downloaded Firefox v.11 & will install shortly), at numerous attempts during the day, I CANNOT get the FIRST file to attach in a Yahoo! email. Simply, utterly, frustrating without any rhyme or reason. "Everything else, on plethora of sites, working fine."
    thanks.

  • Can not open all .pdf files in Yahoo Mail.

    Three computers using Windows XP and Internet Explorer can open all .pdf files in Yahoo
    Mail. The fourth and newest Computer with XP Pro, Internet Explorer, and the latest Adobe
    Reader can only open some, but not all, .pdf files in Yahoo Mail. Nothing happens when
    the window is clicked to open file. How can this be fixed?

    Adobe Reader isn't my favorite, but neither are smug and uninformed assertions about Preview. There are PDFs that render only squares and marks under Preview (http://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/24209/this-pdf-displays-with-question-m arks-instead-of-letters), which is a common problem in MS Windows Office generated PDFs, so you may actually need Adobe Reader for Mac.
    If you need to use Adobe Reader (as I do), then it may depend on the filesystem type where you save your PDF.  For example, our Macs are network homed.  Saving to desktop produced the error reported above no matter whether I used Safari:Save As, or the PDF save icon. 
    However, when I saved to a local drive (such as /tmp), then it worked.  I don't know why file system makes a difference, unless Adobe is doing something with extended attributes that doesn't get written correctly to some filesystems.
    Hope this helps.

  • Dropbox attachment sync with yahoo mail works in Chrome but not firefox.

    In the beginning on April 2013, Yahoo mail added the feature of attaching a files straight from dropbox. This feature works fine when I select it in Google Chrome. When I select the option in Firefox it opens up the little window and has the loading wheel. It just stays at that stage forever. Where as in Chrome the dropbox window opens in 2 seconds. Is there as setting I need to change or and add on that I need to get? What's the problem?

  • Trouble attaching files to e-mail

    This just started happening and I'm not sure what I installed or did to cause it. In any browser - Safari, Firefox, Explorer - I can't attach a document. I'm using SBC Yahoo and their tech support said it was a problem with my computer.
    When I choose a file to attach, it shows up, but when I click "attach", the browser tells me there was an error, no files are attached. I turned off my firewall but can't think of any other reason my files won't attach. I have no problems attaching files to my AOL mail but I don't always use AOL and sometimes need to use my SBC address.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    I'm having the same problem with my verizon business webmail...Safari won't attach files...The old version of Firefox worked fine (Firefox 1.5 doesn't work at all, so now I'm without the ability to attach files altogether)...Need to find the fix for Safari...

  • Can't attach documents to yahoo mail anymore

    hey, everyone. i used to be able to attach files to my yahoo email by clicking attach file and choosing the file (whether it's a photo, pages doc, numbers file, etc).
    now, for some reason, when i choose attach file from the yahoo mail page and the finder window pops up, all of my pages and numbers documents can't be chosen. they're in a light gray color and i can't click on them. i have no idea what could've caused this. i did search around the forums and ran disk utility and repaired disk permissions but that didn't do a thing.
    i'd appreciate any advice y'all could give me.

    fyi, so i call apple care support and find out that this is a normal security feature of leopard. they told me that it's designed to help keep mac users from passing on a virus to others via email. just hit file, compress to create a zip version of the file and then attach the zip file.

  • Firefix (V33) will not upload files in Yahoo Mail - Works fine in IE. Why not?

    I have latest Firefox, Windows 7, 64 bit. Yahoo Mail - latest version
    When I try to attach a file, it just sits there with the progress bar and never completes. Doing the same thing with Internet explorer it happens just fine in a couple of seconds.
    I have tried the drag and drop method as well as the attach file ICON in the email.
    Any idea what is wrong with Firefox?
    I disabled shockwave addon and in fact have NO add-ons running.

    Did you try dropping the files you want to send on people in the buddy list?
