Attachments with mails

I usually get pdf files (ebooks) with my mail which I save for reading later. I am unable to do it on my iPad Mini. Can someone tell me how to save these files so I can look them up later, with Adobe Reader app, or maybe some other app/folder. This also goes for other files too viz. pics, music, etc.

Thanks for your suggestion. I tried using this system, and on keeping my finger pressed on the attachment, I got three options: Open, Add to reading list ad Copy, nothing like what you should on the screen shot.
Adobe Reager is good for me, just how to get it there is the question.
What happes yo music files/audio recordings in the mail. Will have to try that too, for downloading from links given in the mail.

I am having trouble send messages with attachments in Mail. Even small attachments (130K) Mail tries to send, then gives up and the message sits in my out box. How can I fix this?

1. You need an external DVD drive.
2. There are no Mac OS X applications or other software in the iTunes App Store.

I can't send attachments with MAIL

Please help me. Since I have installed Leopard, I have problems to send attachments by mail. People to whom I send, they don't receive them.
Does anybody have any idea about to solve this trouble?
Andrea from Italy

so you look in your Sent folder and the email with attachment is shown as sent, and you do not receive an error message on your computer.
then i would say it is purely a recipient error, and i am not sure how we can help on these pages not knowing what system they use or if on the web. do you have a friend to whom you can send an attachment that also uses a mac by any chance? does he/she receive the attachment fine, or no attachment either?
hope this helps

Trouble sending attachments with Mail 7.0

I just upgraded to Mavericks and I just started using Mail 7.0 to manage my email (switching from Outlook 2011 for Mac). I'm using an early 2008 Mac Pro. I'm having trouble sending emails with attachments through Mail 7.0. Any attachment regardless of file type or size doesn't go through on the first try. I compose my email, hit send and then after sitting in the outbox for a minute or two I get this error message...
I then click on "Try With Selected Server" and sometimes it will send after that and sometimes it won't. File size doesn't seem to matter. I switch back to Outlook and all attachments send just fine. Outlook has its own bugs (that's why I'm trying to switch to Mail) so I'm trying to make Mail my email app.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Let me know if you need any more info. NOTE: I'm not an IT person so please try to dumb down your answers to a first grade level.

I am also having the exact same issue only with exchange emails that have attachments... funny thing is the problem only persistis on my MacBook not on my Imac. Both running Mavericks, set up identically and both totally up to date. I will on occacsion get the can't send mail error on the imac but after I click try again it goes through... on the MacBook I'm not so lucky and end up having to email people dropbox links to every darn file I want to send from my laptop. Talk about a pain in the butt. Apple please address and fix.
btw the unchecking auto discovery trick didn't make any difference for me
thanks for bringin this up

Cannot send attachments with mail

All of a sudden I cannot longer send attachments using the Mail app in OS 10.8.4
Any attachment, any file, any type, using the iCloud server or my internet provider, Mediacom.
Any help?
Thanks.

This may seem a bit basic, but it has worked for me in the recent past - have you quit Mail, relaunched it and tried again? Or, if that doesn't help, try again after restarting the Mac.

Outlook 2010 - attachments with mail merge email

Is it possible to add an attachment to an email mail merge?

Hi,
Actually, Mail merge doesn't support attachments.
To work around this behavior, publish the attachment to a Web site on the Internet. After you do this, provide the path link for the attachment in the body of the
merged document that you are sending.
Or you can use a mail merge utility that is designed to send attachments or use VBA.
More information, you can refer to these articles:
You cannot add an attachment to an e-mail message as part of the mail-merge operation in Word

Using Attachments with Mail

When I am attaching a JPEG or PDF, the whole picture displays.
Can this be changed so that just the file is attached??
Also - I didn't see a section for mail questions, so if this should be posted elsewhere please let me know.
Thanx,
FWW

Whether the file is displayed or not is specific to the email client. The file is always attached.
The mail sections are specific to the OS that you are using, for example if you are using OS 10.4 you would find it at:
Apple.com > Support > Discussions > Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger > Mail & Address Book - Tiger

Getting: Unable to send attachment with Mail Drop

Mail Drop is not working for me, I always get error message while trying to send.
Here is what happens:
-I compose a message that includes a large attachment
-I click send
-I get the message "Unable to send attachment with Mail Drop" for a few seconds
-My message is not sent and it goes into the Outbox folder.
Configuration:
OS X 10.10 Yosemite
Mail -> Preferences -> Accounts -> Advanced. The option "Send large attachments with Mail Drop" is selected.

I had the exact same problem. I finally figured out what was wrong. I believe you must have iCloud Drive turned on in System Preferences AND you also must allow mail to store document in iCloud Drive which you can check by clicking the "Options..." button in the preference pane of iCloud Drive. As you can see below.

I can't open .mov attachments in mail with ios 7.1? Please help?

Hi
Ever since I downloaded ios 7.1 I can't open .mov attachments in my email. I can email a movie file to myself from the same device and when I click to download it, I get a generic icon and it simply goes to a white screen.
I never had this problem until ios 7.1
Help please?

I my case there is no button - I can't even scroll down. But I also don't get any error message, especially not "domain error 912".
If I try to open the .mov file the screen shows the movie-progressbar (where you can normally scroll through the video) for half a second and then the screen goes gray. In the middle of the gray screen I can see the file name and the text "QuickTime-Film" (german version) and the file size. Underneath is a "play-button" (with no reaction if I click on it) and the buttons for forwarding the movie and the button for airplay. No "Download full message"-button.
Seems that we are having different problems with more or less the same result. Again, it only seems to happen with mail which was sent through MS Exchange and it started with IOS 7.1. Therefore I don't think that we can fix it but I hope that someone from Apple is "listening".
My fault! I misunderstood your posting - I was looking for a "download full message"-Button on the screen AFTER clicking on the movie icon. But you meant the mail itself - and there I found it. Thanx! That also explains why small mail went through without problems but larger didn't.

Most likely you're not specifying the path of a file on the server machine.

HT2583 view attachments is mail, my default is set to view with VLC

I down loaded snow lepoard and now my attachments in mail can't open, it is defulted to open with the VLC reader, how do i change that so I can read attachments

That's because you are in the active window for setting up a mail account. Either configure a mail account or cancel out so that the Mail application is now active.
Or, download RCDefaultApp - VersionTracker or MacUpdate - and use it to set up your default applications. It's freeware.

Iam unable to send multiple attachments with a mail using JavaMail?

Hai to all,
Iam unable to send multiple attachments with a email,see
iam have succeeded in sending one attachment with a email.
when iam tring to add two or more attachments to a mail,
it is giving a Exception like this:
javax.mail.MessagingException: IOException while sending message;
nested exception is:
java.io.IOException: No content
at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.sendMessage(SMTPTransport.java:577)
at javax.mail.Transport.send0(Transport.java:151)
at javax.mail.Transport.send(Transport.java:80)
at AttachFilesModified.sendMail(AttachFilesModified.java:185)
at AttachFilesModified.main(AttachFilesModified.java:43)
this is my code snipnet:
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
if(body != null)
messageBodyPart.setText(body);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
/*if(attachments != null)
for(int i = 0; i < attachments.length; i++)
String filename="D:\\nagaraju\\apachi\\axis-bin-1_3.zip";
     //String s[]=filename.split("\\");
     //System.out.println(s);
          //String s1=s[1];
          //String filename1=s[s.length-1];
messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
DataSource source = new FileDataSource(filename);
     messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
messageBodyPart.setFileName(filename);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
     //second file attaching
     /*String filename1="C:\\nagadoc.txt";
     BodyPart messageBodyPart1=new MimeBodyPart();
     DataSource source1=new FileDataSource(filename1);
     messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source1));
     messageBodyPart.setFileName(filename1);
     multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart1);
mess.setContent(multipart);
Address[] allRecips = mess.getAllRecipients();
if(toStdOut)
System.out.println("done.");
//System.out.println("Sending message (\"" + mess.getSubject().substring(0,10) + "...\") to :");
System.out.println("Sending message................");
for(int i = 0; i < allRecips.length; i++)
System.out.print(allRecips[i] + ";");
System.out.println("...");
Transport.send(mess);
if(toStdOut)
System.out.println("done.");
return 0;
What's wrng with that code snipnet?
Nagaraju G.

This works fine with me, try it or compare it if you want.
public void sendEmail( String from, String to,
String subject, String body) {
fMailServerConfig.put("mail.smtp.host", " <<mail server>>");
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance( fMailServerConfig, null );
MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage( session );
try {
message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
new InternetAddress(to));
message.setSubject( subject);
message.setText( body);
//Adds Attechment:
Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setText("Here are my attachments");
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
//first attachment
DataSource source = new FileDataSource("C:\\img1.jpg");
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
messageBodyPart.setFileName("C:\\Telnor1.jpg");
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
//Second attachment
DataSource source2 = new FileDataSource("C:\\img2.jpg");
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source2));
messageBodyPart.setFileName("C:\\Telnor2.jpg");
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
//etc...
message.setContent(multipart);
Transport.send( message );
}catch (MessagingException e){
System.err.println("Cant send mail. " + e);
The error on your code might be:
BodyPart messageBodyPart1=new MimeBodyPart();
DataSource source1=new FileDataSource(filename1);
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source1));
messageBodyPart.setFileName(filename1);
multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart1);
You don't need to create a new BodyPart, and apart from that you'r seting values on "messageBodyPart" but adding "messageBodyPart1" to your multipart :P
Well see u and have a good one!
p.s. i know it's a little late from the day you posted, but at least it might help somebody else :D .

Can attachments be sent with mail from an Ipad

Can attachments be sent with mail from an Ipad?

Please ignore this question as I have just found the answer filed by other users.

Opening attachments with a dot in the name in the Mail app

I'm having an issue opening attachments in Mail when the file includes a dot in the name.
For example, a file called name.v2.pdf does not seem to be recognized as a PDF file. It's not even recognized as anything, the file is shown in the mail but clicking on it does not trigger anything. Renaming that file to something like name-v2.pdf ("-" instead of ".") and everything is fine and working.
Anyone know how to get around that or if Apple plans a fixing this? I've been having the issue since iOS 5...
Only solution I found up to now is using another mail client than the default Mail app of Apple but that's a shame.

Sorry my bad. This is happening with zip files not pdf. Indeed I've retried with a pdf and it does work.
Usually with a zip file in a mail, I touch & hold the file to have the "open in" menu come up.
However, when the file is name like "name.v1.zip", the menu does not want to come up... which for a zip file is necessary since the Mail app does not handle zip files.
I've tried sending and receiving from different accounts, my gmail and my work Exchange account, in all cases, the file does not want to open if there is a period in the name other than the one for the extension.
Thanks for your help.
