Attaching music files to an email message

Can anyone tell me how to attach a music file from my iTunes library to an email message? Also, I would like to convert the file so that it can be played on a PC? Thanks for any assistance.

1. You can control+click on the song you wish to attach. After you do this, a menu window will open select "show in finder."
2. You can then drag and drop this to your mail application. A new message will automatically be started with the music file attached. If you are using an online email program, showing in finder lets you see exactly where the file is. You can then navigate to this in the email program.
Unless the song is protected, you can convert the song to MP3 format. It should then be playable on a Windows machine

  • How to attach image files to an email message?

    I use Mac Mail. When I attach an image file to an email message, the recipient gets it embedded in the message and not as a separate attachment. I'm assuming that the recipient uses a Windows computer, and I always send Windows-friendly attachments. What do I have to do to ensure that attachments are not embedded in an email message?
    Thanks.

    how do i attach a file to an email as an attachment and not embeded in the message?

    This question has been asked and answered several times already.
    Any file attached to an e-mail message is an attachment. There is no other possibility -- the mail protocol does not allow it.
    However, different e-mail clients may have different ways of displaying or viewing attachments, depending on their settings and the type of file attached.
    If you're having problems with Windows users complaining about your messages, follow these instructions

  • Unable to attach multiple files to an email in Safari using Macbook Pro 2011

    Is anyone else having this issue?  Safari won't let me select multiple files to attach to an email.  I can attach more than one file, but I have to attach them one at a time.  Is there a setting I need to change or something??

    I am having exactly the same issue as debsdesign.  The email I am using is yahoo.  I've tried both Safari and Firefox and it makes no difference.  I am using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    So to reiterate the problem - I want to attach multiple files at once to an email message I want to send.  I have tried to do the following:
    1. Select 'Attach file" in my email message
    2. In 'Finder' I have found a list of files I want to attach
    3. I can only select one file at a time and "choose" them individually - I have 16 files.  I have tried holding down the SHIFT key and selecting the last file in the list.  I have also tried holding down the COMMAND key and selecting each file in turn.  Nothing works!
    Is there a way to do this on a Mac??
    Many thanks

  • Unable to attach a file to the email

    I am trying to attach a file using mail.app. When I click on attach(paper clip icon) then I am unable to traverse down to a sub-directory and to a file, instead mail.app attach the entire directory as an attachment. Is this a limitation with OS X? Again I tried the same with Sparrow to no avail.
    Only way is to open a finder window and drag file to the email message.
    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated?
    Thanks,
    Paddy

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Firefox doesn't do email, it's a web browser.
    If you are using Firefox to access web mail, you need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
    If your problem is with Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

  • How do I attach a file to an email?

    I am trying to attach a file to an existing message but cannot find the way to do so, and would like to know if it is even possible on my new ipad 3.

    Hi
    In IOS6 you add attachments from photo scroll by pressing amail body and selecting Add Photo.
    Other filetypes i.e. from apps cannot be inserter unless you send email from app, but that is always new email. So if you reply, you can only insert from scroll.

  • My friend, who is blind and navigates his computer largely via hotkeys, has asked me to try to discover whether there is a hotkey for attaching a file to an email in Firefox. I cannot find this on the web. Any suggestions?

    Sorry, I don't know what other details I should provide. My friend has a program installed which lets him know out loud what is happening as he navigates, but it's been quite a process for him to attach files; he often requires help and it would certainly be easier with a hotkey.
    I did check the hotkeys list on this site and discovered a whole lot of hotkeys I never knew existed, but none for attaching a file to an email. Any ideas that might be helpful are welcome, however I should say up front that I'm not nearly at the technical level most people on here obviously are. I can, however, follow clear instructions. :-)

  • All of a sudden I am unable to attach a file to my email without compressing

    All of a sudden I am unable to attach a file to my email without compressing. The email will show no attached file and then freezes and I am unable to add any content to body of email or change any of the content. I have to just delete the email and start over. If I zip the file it will show up in the body of the email and I am able to add content and send the email. This just stared happening, I had not changed any preferences or anything so I have no idea what happened.

    When I attach a file in my email it is embedded.  How do I just attach the file.  Windows users would like to be attached not embedded how do I that.

    I suspect that your Windows pals are using an e-mail program from the Stone Age.
    In the last 10 years or so most people prefer to read attachments “in-line”. This allows text and images to be intermixed allowing an easier method of explaining things.
    When I am dealing with a old-fashioned, obsolete Windows user that is using an older e-mail program I simply put all the attachments at the very end of the e-mail. This will make it appear more normal to them.
    Not all Windows programs work in this primitive fashion. But as Mac users, we have become more accustomed to the modern methods of viewing attachments in-line.

  • I suddenly cannot attach any file to an email whilst using Firefox 5.

    My preferred browser is Firefox 5, which I have been using trouble-free until now. All of the sudden, I am unable to attach any file to an email. I simply get a file loading attempt that never times out. At first I thought it was a Yahoo problem, but my work email server will not add attachments either. I downloaded Google Chrome just now as a test, and still can't add attachments. Might this be a Windows problem? Anyone run into this? Thank you. I am my own IT department and it is sad... Katherine
