Attaching JPEG photos Can Not Be Opened on PC

Recently, recipients of Emails from me (sent on Mac) who have PC can not open any of the jpeg pictures I attach to the emails. I have set the Mail to make attachments PC friendly, and have also changed the attached pictures to icons. On the PC's, apparently the icons do not even appear on the received emails as shown on the PC. Apparently, the PC owner can try to right click on the pictures and download as BMP, but that is not what is needed. The material I have read is that PC owners should be able to download the jpegs. What am I doing wrong?

My point was that you would need to narrow down the issue a little before being able to identify the cause. For example, if you send an attachment to a recipient who's using a certain email program, and the next week you send another attachment of the same type and similar size, and he receives it using the same program, and different behaviour is seen, then there's something awry.
It's not that an email client is dealing with the attachment or message "incorrectly", it's that each program might deal with it in a different way.
If a different email program is used by the recipient each time (for example, one time he uses Windows Mail, and another time he uses webmail) then different behaviour can be expected. Or if either the sender or recipient upgrades their operating system betweentimes, then that might create an inconsistency.

  • IPhoto can not be open, can i get back my photo?

    Hi all,
    My iPhoto is not woring, it can not be open , but no any message. It just can't and keeping loading for a longgg time.
    What can i do? i have a lot of photo inside , and i don't wanna lost it.
    Someone told me to take it back in the iPhoto Library Manager, but where is it ? i can't find it in my 'Picture' folder'
    P.S I tried to open iphoto with another, it's work!
    PLZZ help me to fix that! i can't live without it.
    Thanks a lot

    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download <a href="http://www.fatcatsoftware.com/iplm/"><b><u>iPhoto Library Manager</b></u></a> and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new *iPhoto 08* library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • Problem related to PS CS6 ext. on Mac.  Nikon DSLR D610 raw file can not be opened

    Problem related to PS CS6 ext. on Mac. Installation is OK but I can't open picture from my Nikon D610 (Raw NEF format). I get a message "can not open this format ...". Checking Help menu to see if I miss an update the message I get is that I'm up-to-date but at the end Nikon D610 (format supported of course) files can not be opened . JPEG are OK but I work with raw files. Thanks

    What OS are you running: 10.x.x?
    What version of the Camera Raw plug-in do you have?  Do (About) Plug-ins / Camera Raw to find out.
    You need at least ACR 8.3 to open D610 files.  If the Help / Updates process does not work, then there is a manual install process you can do.  The page with the download is for when people accidentally updated to ACR 8.4 and need to roll back to ACR 8.3 due to their OS being incompatible, but the installer on that page works even if you haven’t erroneously updated to ACR 8.4:

  • I updated iPhoto 9.1.3, and I can not 'to open iPhoto

    I updated iPhoto 9.1.3, and I can not 'to open iPhoto (I said that I need to update the library) ... ... hours ... minutes pass and nothing happens.
    Given that I'll '20gb photo and a short video, so I do not have a big library..., remained all night to update the database, but still nothing ... someone I can' help ..?

    Well that's an easy fix:
    Restart your mac and try launch iPhoto again.
    If that fails:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there. Right (or Control-) Click on the icon and select 'Show Package Contents'. A finder window will open with the Library exposed.
    Look there for a file called ‘iPhoto’Lock.data or similar. Drag it to the Desktop. Make no other changes. Start iPhoto. Does that help?

  • R12: Attachments on Custom Notification can not be opened by Outlook

    Hello Everyone,
    We have customize the approval workflow for Oracle Project Costing. In this customization we have included a notification that handles the attachments the user may have attach to the financial plan. The issue with the personalization is that the attachments can not be opened from MS Outlook. If we try to open it directly from the work list of EBS, they are opened without a problem. Definitely we are missing something because the standard notification for requisitions that includes attachments works fine and it pop up the login page for the user to enter his user and password. Please help us. This is very important because the VP's of the company and the CEO do not want to open the application, they only want to use the Email Client.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Regards.

    is he able to access the task list if you give him the url to it directly.  Have you tried his access whilst removing the Outlook email from the troubleshooting.
    Does your custom workflow manipulate permissions of users at all?

    While the iTunes app is being updated, you are correct, it cannot be opened.
    This is true of all Apple apps on your Mac.
    iTunes is not very large compared to other apps.  Let it update, then open it.

    Hi MrJavonte15,
    If you are having issues installing iTunes on your Windows machine, you may want to take a look at the following article:
    Apple Support: Trouble installing iTunes or QuickTime for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1926
    If you have previously installed iTunes and continue to have issues, you may want to remove and reinstall iTunes:

  • App Store can no longer be opened.  Immediate crash and error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem"

    App Store won't open, error message "App Store can not be opened because of a problem".  I haven't been able to update anything for a week or so.  I have used Disk Utility, Drive Genius, deleting the .plist, all to no avail.  My Mac Mail hasn't worked since the upgrade to Mavericks.  Mavericks can't see my LaCie Cloudbox.  Can any of these be solved by me? 

    I have the same error "XXXX App cannot be opened because of a problem". And I also cannot open iTunes and get the error "This copy of iTunes is corrupted or is not installed correctly.  Please reinstall iTunes."
    Only Apple apps seem to be at issue here...
    Repairing Permissions did not fix this.
    I noticed this after the last Software update. Is there no fix other than re-installing?
    Not happy that an Apple software update killed all my apps...

  • Itunes application can not be open the disk can not be read from or writte

    itunes can not be opened the disk can not be read from or written to. That is the warning i get when i click my itunes to open it. Problem...
    there is no disk:) i have no idea what this warning means.. i have restarted and nothing.. i updated itunes and same warning.. there is no disk in the drive at all..
    infact i made sure i was in a room with no other disks.. Help??

    A few things to try:
    • Restore Permissions, using Disk Utility (in ~Applications/Utilities)
    • Set the correct Ownership & Permissions for the iTunes folder:
    Select the iTunes folder in ~/Users/YourUsername/Music.
    Get Info (command-I).
    Expand 'Ownership & Permissions' and 'Details:'
    You must read: 'You can Read & Write': if not, change it.
    Click on the 'Apply to enclosed items...' button.
    Hope this helps.

  • Files copied (backed up) on an external hard drive can NOT be opened

    MacBook Pro (2.5GHz, intel Core i5)
    OS X Yosemite, 10.10.2
    I was running low on storage space on my Mac Pro. I copied all items on Desktop to my external hard drive. After all files were copied from MacBook Pro to the external hard drive, "get info" suggested that the amount of space taken entirely was the same between when all items were on the Desktop and when they were on the external hard drive. The number of items copied over were also identical. I should have been more careful, but I then deleted all items from the Desktop. It was until a few days later (today) that I noticed majority of the files copied over onto the external disk can NOT be opened now. The error message was "The alias “<filename>” can’t be opened because the original item can’t be found.".
    I really don't want to lose these files, but where are they? They got their file sizes correct but just can not be opened. I tried copying these files back to Desktop on my MacBook Pro, that's not helpful. I tried accessing the files on a PC, still can't open the files. I tried repairing disk of the external hard drive (under Disk Utility), still can't open the files. I tried repairing disk permissions of my MacBook Pro hard drive, still can't open the files.
    One last thing I tried in terminal (I am not terminal savvy at all, just googled the "The alias..." error message and copied the instruction):  /usr/bin/SetFile -a a /Volumes/MAC This did not solve the problem, either.
    Thank you for your help in advance!

    Hi, eddie from pataskala ohio.
    We love pro-active thinking here at the Apple Discussions and you're off to a great start.
    Even though upgrading iTunes shouldn't affect your Library, one of the funny things about computers is that sometime, somehow, somewhere when you least expect it , they can do some not so funny things, like losing data that they're not supposed to. Which is why it's a good idea to have a back up copy of any data (such as your music) that you value in reserve ... just in case.
    The most straightforward way, is to go to the iTunes Edit menu > Preferences > Advanced tab > General sub-tab and make sure your iTunes Music folder is assigned to its default location: C:\Documents and Settings\User Name\My Documents\My Music\iTunes .
    Next make sure all your music is stored in that folder by using the iTunes Advanced menu > Consolidate Library option.
    Now you can copy the entire iTunes folder - the iTunes Music folder and the iTunes library files in particular - to your external drive.
    If anything does go wrong with the upgrade, you'll be all set to recreate your Library.

  • Every time I click on the finder symbol it says application finder can not be opened

    I can not use my finder icon. every time i click on it it pops up (The application finder can not be opened)

    Post the full text of the message, including the error code, if any.
    Launch the Console application by entering the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Enter the application name in the “Filter” text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any -- the text, please, not a screenshot
    Then, still in the Console window, look under "User Diagnostic Reports" for crash logs related to the application. Select the most recent one and post the contents -- again, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
