Attachment Preview

Is there a way to stop Mail from previewing attachments when composing emails? I would like to add an attachment without it interfering with the text.

Mail Attachments Iconizer is currently not compatible with Snow Leopard yet. While you wait for them to update, you can do this...
If you attach a jpeg and it displays in the body of the email, control click it and choose "View as Icon". This is tedious when you have multiple copies as you'd have to do it one by one.

  • Cannot disable automatic attachment preview in Mavericks Mail?

    Hello All,
    I noticed after upgrading to Mavericks that Apple Mail started automatically previewing attachments again... I had disabled this in previous versions of OS X.  I tried to disable this again in the terminal using:
    defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
    But after re-starting Mail, attachments are being automatically previewed again.
    I consider this a security issue so I would like to disable automatic attachment previewing as soon as possible.  Has anyone been able to do this with the Mail included with Mavericks yet?

    Just a basic examplo:  getting an email with an open image, that the 2 people around me can immediately see, can pose a serious security for anything I'm doing with my Mac!
    So, you see, SECURITY is much more than a mere technical problem!
    Cheers
    That's a privacy problem, not a security problem.
    If you are receiving images in emails that the others arround you are not qualified to see, your office setup is the security problem, not Mail.
    Use a different email client that gives you the option. I have no idea what those are, though.

  • Unable to see markups in Outlook 2010 attachment preview

    Hi,
    I am unable to see markup tags which were done in Word 2010 in the Outlook 2010 attachment preview window. The word file normally gets marked up and sent as an attachment. Most of the time the attachment preview will highlight the markup over the words and
    when the mouse is hovered over it will show the actual comment. For a couple of my users, this has stopped working.
    When they double-click on the attachment they also cannot see the comments. However, if they save it to the local or network drive and then open the file all the markups will automatically appear.
    As a test I asked them to send me the email which had this problem to see if this happens on my Outlook and I cannot see the markups either. So I guess something must have happened with the Word file?
    Any ideas what this could be? The documents were originally composed in Word 2010 as far as I know. I have also created a test markup file and emailed this to myself and this shows the highlights fine.
    I attach a picture of when its working well.
    But with the documents that my users have this does not show.
    Any suggestions really appreciated.

    Hi,
    What if we copy all the content from the problematic Word document and paste it to a new blank document, save and attach it to an email, will you see the markup?
    Please let me know the result.

  • Is it possible to disable inline email attachment preview in Yosemite?

    I was hoping that there would be an option/setting in Yosemite to disable inline email attachment previews in Mail to view an attachment as an icon. Attachment Tamer seems to be the only work-around, but it isn't available for Yosemite yet. Any suggestions?

    Thank you, Ralph.
    Yes, I tried all of that. The best I could find is Mail > Edit > Attachments > and check "Always Insert Attachments at End of Message." Its better than nothing!

  • OWA Blank Attachment Preview with Office Web Apps Server

    Environment:  Exchange 2013 CU3 / Office Web Apps Server 2013
    OS:  Windows Server 2012 R2
    After implementing Office Web Apps server per the Integration with Exchange 2013 instructions, attachment previews in OWA show up as blank windows.  The pop up says Opening your mailbox, then goes blank.  I have the WAC endpoint configured in Exchange,
    I can access the discovery URL from the Exchange servers, and I am seeing event 142.  Some forums say that these events should be in the CAS application logs.  I am seeing mine in the Mailbox server app logs.  Has anyone seen a similar issue.
     I have also attempted to view the ULS logs on the Office Web Apps server, but I don't see anything that looks like a rendering request.  But, I also don't know what that request would look like.  The Exchange and Office Web Apps server are
    in the same network with no firewall in between them The local firewalls have also been turned off, so any type of blockage should not be the issue.

    I dont want to be happy too soon, but i think for me this did the trick:
    from time to time, this event appeared in the application eventlog:
    Source: MSExchange Certificate Deployment
    Event ID: 2005
    Task Category: General
    Level: Warning
    Keywords: Classic
    Description:

    Trust to a valid certificate using Set-FederationTrust or Set-AuthConfig. The certificate may take time to propagate to the local or neighboring sites.
    The solution was found here: http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/512374-missing-the-microsoft-exchange-server-auth-certificate

    Do not accept to replace the SMTP certificate when prompted
    2. Note the thumbprint of the new certificate. Let us assume it is 7A39541F8DF58D4821967DD8F899B27410F7C081
    3. $a=get-date
    4. Set-AuthConfig -NewCertificateThumbprint 7A39541F8DF58D4821967DD8F899B27410F7C081 –NewCertificateEffectiveDate $a
    Accept to continue despite the fact that the certificate effective date is not 48 hours into the future
    5. Set-AuthConfig –PublishCertificate
    6. Make sure to remove any potential reference to the previous certificate (which might not exist anymore) by doing Set-AuthConfig -ClearPreviousCertificate
    Maybe this helps some of you too.

  • Disable attachment preview

    I work in the graphic world and I receive lots of mails with heavy attachments. I would like to switch to Mail (from Entourage), but my problem is that Mail seems to display all attachments in the preview pane. Because of the size of the attachments, this slows me down and is of no use, since I have to edit them anyway in another program. How can I get rid of these attachment previews, while keeping the text preview (as Entourage allows)?

    Take a look at Mail Attachments Iconizer.

    .pdf - Works
    .PDF - does not work
    .Pdf - does not work
    .pDf - does not work
    It also seems to happen across document types, PDF, DOCX, XLSX, etc.  So that doesn't seem to be dependent either.
    Anyone run into this before or is there a KB article or a setting that I am missing somewhere that explains how to resolve this?Thanks!

    By default, there are 8 bindings for DOCX.  Do you see any other bindings available?

  • Can i switch on/off the automatic attachment preview in mail?

    Dear Communitie!
    I can not find the setting to switch on/off the preview of mail attachments in mail app.
    My colleagues can few the .pdf attachements direct in the preview area of there mail programm. I have to open the link's to see the complete .pdf's. It is the same with .jpg files in signatures. I only see the link of the file. To see it in full version i have to click on it.
    Do you have any hints?
    Thank you for your help.
    kind regards
    Gerhard

    If the PDF is a multi-page document then it may not show a preview in Mail. To trigger the mode you want though, right-click the attachment and choose "View in Place" to show its contents in the Mail window, or choose "View as Icon" to show it only as a file.

  • FF 5.0 wont show attachment preview in hotmail

    update to 5.0 now when i open email with attachment the preview bar at top just says loading...nothing happens. normally shows preview of pic or vid. works in IE 8

    There are a number of different "speed dial" or "fast dial" add-ons to do this. To see which one you had before, check your disabled add-ons. There could be an updated version.
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Add-ons
    On the left side, click Extensions, then scroll down to the grayed out ones. Can you spot it?

  • Email image attachment preview (pre Photoshop) is different than image file

    I saved an image from the web to my desktop, which I then tried to attach to an email. I selected the file in the finder, but an earlier pre-Photoshop version of the image came up as the preview. How is this possible?
    In this case, the saved image was a picture of 3 clones of the same person. The preview showed only one of that person (no evidence of Photoshop effects)

    You have not provided any information that would allow troubleshooting.

  • PDF Attachment preview problem

    Hello,
    Can some one advise me why would there be a problem in viewing pdf attachment properly.The problem is when I try to open a PO attachment that is sent via SAP or preview it in SAP itself, the content seems to vanish when scrolling up and down the document.The print program has been used before for a diiferent output type and it worked good and still is working very well.Thanks.
    Regards,
    Pinky

    There are two reasons I can think of off hand that would cause a problem.
    1) Email is a method of sending ascii information through the internet.
    Since attached files are not necessarily ascii, different methods of
    encoding the attachment and converting it to ascii have been developed.
    Both the receiving and sending email programs, must understand the
    method of encoding used. If not you are out of luck.
    2) If the people are trying to read their mail at work, their employer
    might have a policy of either not allowing attachments. They can either
    reject all mail with attachments or they can strip the attachments from
    the email.

  • Turning off image attachment previews in emails

    How do you turn off in Apple Mail 4 the ability to not preview attached imgaes in Apple Mail?
    I have lots of emails coming through to me with images attached and it just slows thinks down having to preview them inside the email very time.

    I assume you mean that you are accessing your Gmail as IMAP, but since it can be either, please confirm which? If as IMAP, then what are your selections in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced regarding keeping copies of messages and their attachments for Offline viewing? This would have an impact on how much response time is needed to read a message with large attachments. Otherwise, it should not take any time to display a message, even with many photo files?
    There is not a way to turn off View In Place before displaying the message.

  • Outlook 2010 attachment previewer problem

    Dear All,
    I recently upgraded to the office 2010 beta, and have been quite pleased with the new system, until i tried to view an image that was attached to an email. I keep getting on any type of image or pdf that the previewer is not available ad to double click to open the file. I then get photo viewer telling me it can't open the file. So i saved the file to my desktop and try to open the jpg in any program such a photshop, illustrator or fireworks and it tells me there is an unknown or invalid JPEG marker type is found."
    I can't open any files that are attached to emails, which is getting really annoying now. I have tried everything i can think of, running outlook as an admin, turning off image previewers, checking image previewers are enabled, i've tried the protection settings, and disabling it for Outlook.
    Nothing will work. I've searched google and found a few solutions where they say this is caused by google desktop search causing problems and that uninstalling it solves the issue, however I don't have google desktop search installed, just google toolbar.
    Its starting to drive me round the bend, i've even ran and repaired the pst file which didn't make any difference either.
    Have reported it as a frown but not holding my breath for a response.
    System:
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Office 2010 32 bit beta version
    The laptop is 2 weeks old from Dell and all updates are applied.
    Can anyone shed any light?
    Thanks
    Tom

    I am having a problem which is a variation on the same theme.  What is even more odd is that I have a laptop and desktop which I installed Outlook 2010 on and they behave very differently.  On my laptop, I can easily view all doc and docx
    attachments, while on my desktop, these very same attachments are not recognized or are considered as corrupt documents.  I have been fiddling around with trusted locations on my desktop (e.g., trusting my server folders etc.) but so far no success -
    even after reinstallation of 2010 on the desktop.  My laptop's Outlook works fine without having to trust any particular location.  I installed Outlook on my desktop after doing a fresh install of the XP OS while the Outlook installation was an upgrade
    of Office 2007 with a fairly weather beaten XP registry.  So currently, I see no rhyme or reason except that it appears that the 2010 installation is highly highly sensitive.  Hopefully there is a quick fix to this or I might also have to roll back
    to an earlier version of Outlook.
    Had the same issue.
    Here is the fix
    Hello,
    I finally found out what the issue is with this.  It actually isn't a "Protected view" issue, but a DCOM issue.
    Somehow the DCOM permission got changed, so it wouldn't allow certain applications access to simple things like Preview mode on Outlook 2010 / 2007, or opening up attachments without it saying file corrupt.  I also was having an issue with Pop ups in
    IE8, where javascript messages about security tokens were not authenticated.
    The solution is as follows, and then you can turn on your protected mode back on in word, excel, and your "Preview mode" in outlook will start working again.
    Go to start, then run.  Type dcomcnfg and push o.k. Component Services should come up.
    Expand Component Services, click on Computers, then "Right click" on My Computer and go to "properties".
    Click on Default Properties tab, and make sure the following is set:
    Default Authentication Level: Should say Connect, not "None"
    And Default Impersonation Level: SHould say Identify.
    When those are set properly, hit o.k and turn on your protected mode back on your Office applications.  Everything works as expected :)
    Cheers :)
