Attachments (suddenly) can't be saved by recipient puzzle.

I have been regularly sending attachments (photos) to clients, from my Mac Pro, with no problem for many years.
Today I sent the same two photos to two different clients, and they both said the photo was embedded in the text with no way to save it. No paper clip is shown and if they right click the photo they can only save it as a bmp. The message size is correct for the full jpgs. Both are using Outlook Express in XP. In my sent folder the attachments and paperclips are clearly there.
I have been testing by sending myself attachments and opening them in my Parallels XP (Outlook Express) and Windows 7 (Thunderbird) Boot Camp machines.
Here is the puzzle.
In my XP machine the messages are exactly as the clients say, no paperclip, message size correct. Only difference from clients is that if I right click it says it can't find the file.
In my Windows 7 machine the messages also do not have a paperclip next to them, but if I right click on the photo in the text, I can save it out.
Messages sent from my MacBook Pro do not have this problem. They show up in Outlook/XP and Windows 7 with paperclips and are saveable.
The settings in Mail prog are synched by MobileMe between the two computers, and I can't see any differences. Composing pref on both is rich text, and menu/format/make rich text is greyed out on both).
The only difference is that the Mac Pro has Widemail plugin installed.
I can make the Mac Pro attachments work OK with Mail Iconizer, but why is it necessary? And why has it suddenly started happening?
Thanks for any input.

Shvlhed, thanks for your inquiry. Ann is absolutely correct. The file sizes of the pictures you are sending may be too large for the phone you are sending it to. What type of phone is receiving the picture? Have you tried with different people? If your camera is set to a high resolution, this may prevent some basic phones from viewing or saving the picture. Here is some info on file size limits for picture messaging.

  • 1 of my HD partition suddenly can't mount and want me to initialize! HELP!!

    Hi,
    If anyone who frequented these kind of problems before please let me know your solutions solving these problems. Thanks very much!!
    I'm a musician and a frequent mac user,I have a Power Mac G4 dual 800 with 1.25GMhz ram running on Mac Os 9.21 but with Mac OS X installed (I need to use Mac OS classic due to some of my music softwares still need to be updated before I upgrade to OS X),I've put the Hard Disk in 2 other sub partition HD at the beginning and have been using it to put all my important audio files and songs files. No problems at all before these nightmare started!
    The serious problem I'm having now is I suddenly can't mount one of my partition HD anymore.
    -I heard weird sound when starting & re-starting the Mac. (Heard some Hard Disk weird sound like sound "crutch" sound" and since the partition can't be mounted, the first thing shows up after I boot the computer is asking me if I wanna Initialize the Hard Disk because it's unreadable. There is 2 choices for me "Cancel" & "Initialize" But there is no effect when I choose "Cancel" so I use the Force Quit.
    2 little message saying my Main Hard Disk & the other partition are damaged but they still showing up properly and still running dangerously I think.
    -I have tried to start-up by using the installer Disk came with the computer and runs the First Aid Kit to verify the disk. I can see the partition and can see the icon of it but it's just different from others (in a black tone basic classic icon) and after running the verification some following messages appears:
    "Mountcheck found serious errors" (in red) then "Overlapped extent allocation,2.60" (in red) and "Hard disk need to be repaired" so I run the Repair mode and it just can't fix because it says it's not been mounted.
    I've also checked the main HD and the other partition which sometimes had some problems with it but no problems been found.
    -There was few times my computer do Freeze or appears a Bomb asking me to restart when I recording something using the partition for saving the data and a weird sound of hard disk comes before freezing. It seems it's always the same place of the hard disk. Also When I inserted a blank CD-R disk into the drive it just freeze and appears a Bomb message instead asking me if I wanna use the Toast or i-tunes for preparing the disk which I always used to do.
    I really hope the computer can hang on just for 1 more month before I have a break to fix everything and backup everything inside or initialize everything inside.
    P.S. I've another Powerbook G4 running on OS Tiger but it's mainly for my internet use. ( I don't use internet connection for my PowerMac G4)
    And the Combo super Drive is DOWN,I just can't insert any Disk inside anymore. So if having another Mac is helpful for my issue,anything I would try.
    Due To I'm having some urgent important jobs now so I really can't initialize or setup other new computers for my works now.
    HELP! Thanks!!!

    Just because you can't find them does not mean they aren't there.

    Can not in my post means I tried to open a pdf attachment to a email. I received  nothing happens. I do not get a blank screen or any messages. Nothing Nothing happens at all. I can click several times and get no response.
    I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing  "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print. This may be printing from my hard drive - I am not sure. I think I could go through this procedure every time I want to open a atachment but it seems a long way around.

  • Photoshop CS5.1 suddenly can't save to main hard drive

    This is very strange.  In Photoshop I suddenly can't save files to the main hard drive on my mac mini.  I get the error "Could not save as [filename] because the file is locked or you do not have the necessary access privileges. Use the ‘Get Info’ command in the Finder to unlock the file or change permissions on the file or enclosing folders."  I can however save files to the secondary hard drive.  Other applications can save to the main hard drive just fine.
    As a test, in Photoshop I tried saving to the root of both drives.  I get the error only when attempting to save to the main hard drive.  I have checked the permissions of both drives and they are identical:  system R/W, wheel R/W, and everyone R/W.
    I have tried everything I can find on the message boards, but nothing works (disk repair, repair permissions, etc).  I have also reinstalled Photoshop and get the same error.
    any help much appreciated!
    thanks,
    JC

    The problem has resolved itself!
    All I did was reboot a few times in my attempts to get Command-R to work (I have a PC keyboard and the "option" and "command" keys are reversed until OS X boots).
    Oh, one other thing I did... I logged in as a different user and ran Photoshop and was able to save a file to the main hard drive.  Very strange because this guest user has less privilege than my normal login.

    HSL images can only be saved in the AIPD format. Please see the IMAQ Vision Concepts Manual or the LabVIEW help page for IMAQ Write File for more details. To save the image to another file format, you could convert it to RGB and then convert back to HSL when you are going to use the image later.

  • Photoshop CC 2014 - The file can not be saved in path because an error has occurred

    Hello,
    I need again help regarding this issue. Sometimes but very often I receive an error, trying to save a PSD file, the error is: "The file can not be saved in <path> because an error has occurred". After that it is not possible to save the file in any format, using save or save in dialog. The only way to rescue the result is, to save for web as an jpeg. This error occours often using Topaz or NIK filter and until now only in PS-CC 2014. My workflow looks like this:
    - Open NEF RAW file in Brdige
    - Settings in ACR and give it into PS by clicking OK in ACR
    - In PS doing a adjust some levels
    - press SHIFT+STRG+ALT+E for a new summary layer
    - Uing Topaz Adjust on the new level with 65% opacity
    - press SHIFT+STRG+ALT+E for a new summary layer
    - Using Topaz DeNoise on the new layer
    - pres STRG+i and resize the image to 1200x797
    - Using Topaz InFocus on the same layer as DeNoise
    - create a vignette with brightness adjustlayer
    After this workflow in nearly 90% it is not possible to save the file as PSD or something else, only to save for web as JPG. If I save the file after opening the RAW in PS and after every layer with Topaz Filter, I can save the file when I am done. Same issue occurs using NIK Filters in that way.
    I tried to optimize the performance by using this guide: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-performance-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html doesn’t solve the issue.
    I re- and installed all Adobe Products more than three times, doesn't solve the issu.
    After that I ordered a new SSD drive and insall Windows 7 64bit inkl. All latest hotfixes, patches and drivers. I downloaded the newest Adobe Versions and the newest filter sets from Topaz and NIK. Doesn’t solve the issue.
    This is my rig:
    Gigabyte Z87X-UD4H mainboard
    Intel Core i7 4770k
    32GB Corsair RAM
    250GB Samsung 840 Evo SSD Drive
    nVidia Geforce GTX770
    During my tests I took the same RAW File and created nearly 20 adjustment layers and summary layers, without using Topaz or NIK filters. No problem, I was able to save the file as PSD file. 
    From my point of view, actually, the error occurs only when I am using Topaz or NIK filters. Both supports doesn’t know the issue and if I search the web, I can’t find more then me. It seemed to depend on my settings, my rig or something else, perhaps a cache is overflowed or something like this. Adobe telephone support can’t help because I said I use a third party filter. But it occurs with two different manufactures…
    So please guys, help me to figure out why this error occurs in my system.
    Thanks in Advance and best regards,
      Michael

    Update: I tried several times to reproduce the error, actually it dosen't occur. I changed nothing on my system, without reboot it twice. This is what I said in my beginning times: it occurs sometimes but often. I will keep you up to date.

  • When an email contains multiple attachments how can I forward just one of the attachments in a new email?

    I am new to IPAD use and need to forward one attachment from an original email that contains multiple attachments - how can I isolate and forward only one of the attachments?

    Aha! I have been doing just that. However, what has been tripping me up is that I am also used to clicking the Go Online/Go Offline toggle button on the top menu bar when I manually check for messages on Cox. Apparently when you take one inbox offline, that button switches to Off even though the other inbox is still online. If I just ignore that button and go on or off via the cox mailbox listing, it keeps comcast from being reactivated.
    Thanks so much for helping me think this through.
    Edited to add: I removed that dang button from my menu so I can stop clicking it.

  • "screen shot can't be saved" and other permissions issues

    After having my iMac at the Apple Store for four days solving a problem with "quit unexpectedly" issues with all Apple built-in Apps on OS X Yosemite, I got the machine back with those problems solved.  It involved re-installing OS X and restore files from backup.  I thought all was well; the Genius Bar dude showed me that it's fixed. He said it took so long because of bizarre permissions issues he'd never seen before.
    Now that I've lugged this 40lb machine back home (after verifying the fixes in the store) I now find that several (other) functions don't work.  When I try to do a screenshot, I get this message:"Your screen shot can't be saved.  You don't have permission to save this file in the location where screen shots are stored."  Message could have been more helpful; the "location" is the desktop.  Pretty descriptive, though.  Seems I can't save anything to the desktop.
    I tried creatng a folder on the desktop.  Got this message: "Finder wants to make changes. Type your password to allow this".  Type password and new folder appears.  Drag the new folder to the trash, get same message..
    I tried copying a file from a network drive to the desktop. I get this dialog: "Modifying Desktop requires and administrator name and password.  I clicked "authenticate" and after a 3 minute delay (with "Preparing.." ) I get this dialog; "Finder wants to make changes.  Type your password to allow this".  I type the password and the file appeared on the desktop.  Before the work at the Apple Store, this never happened.  BTW I have only one user account and it's marked "Allow user to administer this computer".  Thinking something might be goofy with the pw, I changed it (took 3 minutes to do, oddly) and rebooted. No joy. Same thing happens when I try to drag something from the desktop to the trash.  Long time "moving" message followed by having to provide and admin pw.
    I tried to save a Safari attachment to the Downloads folder and got this message: "Safari could not download the file xxxxx because there is not enough free disk space".  Since I have more than 600GB of available space, I think the message is wrong and that it's really a permission issue with the Downloads folder.
    Tried to reset the password again.  Click to unlock the Users & Groups panel, get "System Preferences is trying to unlock Users & Groups preferences.  Type your password to allow this".
    All this tells me that somehow Yosemite is in "nag" mode (reminiscent of Windows Vista.
    Any ideas?

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Ipod classic with error message (-48) can it be saved without wiping it??

    my ipod is coming up with an error message (-48) and saying it cannot be synched. I would like to put new material on it but cannot. Is there any way of rescueing it without restoring it to factory settings (as I do not want to lose things on it that I don't have on my computer)

    To answer your questions:
    Are you loading them by using Preview>File>Open, double clicking, or dragging the file? None of the above. I am loading them through 4D. I generate a report on 4D and it opens in Preview.
    When this happens can you Open another PDF from the same location? Yes, see details below.
    Are you loading these PDFs from the Server or another Mac? From the server. The file is created by a 4D client that resides on my disk but the 4D server which it references is on another computer. I am still shared to that computer and my connection to 4D has not changed as far as I can tell.
    I found today (details written in response to another question) that when this happens I can save the file to my own desktop but not to the server. It makes me think there may actually be something happening with my connection. I wonder does a server do any realigning (for lack of a better word) of connections as some connections are lost? While I had the document open (the one that I could not save to the server) I went to the server and opened a document that existed there. I saved the file back to the server with a different name. No problem, it worked just fine. Now I am really confused....
    1) A PDF file generated by 4D that has not ever been saved to the server can not be saved to the server via Preview around the time that other people are disconnecting from the server and shutting down their computers for the day. Quitting Preview and regenning the document fixes the problem.
    2) The same PDF file that can not be saved to the server can be saved to my own disk.
    3) Other files that are already existing on the server can be saved with a different name to the server at the same time as a new document can not.
    I wish I felt like I was getting closer to the answer...
    Thanks for thinking about it.
