Can not attach a file in mail.

Hi,
I want to attach a file from a map in mail via the paper-clip but I am unable to open a map which contains the file I like to attach. Mail wants to attach the complete map.. I have the latest version of OSX Yosemite. Is it a bug ?

Yes I have tried that and that works.  But when I do it via the paperclip I only see "Kies bestand" ("Choose file") in the bottom right button, see screenshot. The only thing I can do is insert the whole map instead of opening it and choose a file within the map. It should have the text "open folder" or something like that.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only Guest login created by Find My Mac.
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault in Mac OS X 10.7 or later, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The Guest login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step 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).
    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.
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    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 steps 1 and 2.

  • Can't attach any files into mail from a 4GB hard drive

    I have a sandisk 4GB crusier and when I try to attach files in mail, mail doesn't see the drive. The drive is mounted on my desktop and I can see it in finder. I have to drag files from the HD to my outgoing mail message.
    Could I have a drive that is going?

    I dont think this is a issue with the drive going bad mail isn't seeing it for some reason but thats no indication that the drive is bad...

  • I can't attach Word file to mail on iCloud

    I want to send my resume to a recruiter,
    but it does not work.
    I click on the icon to attach a file (paperclip icon)
    i wait for a moment but nothing happens,
    so i don't know if the file is attached or not.
    My resume is only 57Kb so the file size is not a problem.
    Best Regards,
    TS

    I'm still having this problem. I can't send emails from iCloud.com with  any attached files (small word docs or small pdfs).
    I have an old MB running 10.5.8. I've tried sending emails from iCloud.com using Safari 5.0 and Firefox 9. Any suggestions (aside from buying a new computer)?

    hhas anyone had a problem opening PDF files in mail.  I get a grey screen

    Try a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    then check again.

  • Can not attach documents or files to email along with lots of other problems

  • I can't attach a file or photo in hotmail or windows live please help

    The Gingerbreadman on in that link seems he knows his stuff.
    I had the same problem and most of Mozilla's answers on here were so useless.
    Anyway - I think your problem is likely to be the Add-On 'Silverlight' - disable it and see if you can then select the attachments link.

  • Can not attach files to email, can't reply to or forward selected emails.

    I've seen others post this problem, but have not been able to find the solution. What has happened is I suddenly cannot attach any files... pdfs, jpgs, docs or anything to my emails. Also, when I hit the reply or forward button on some emails that I have received, nothing happens. On a few, a reply or forward window does open, but there is no rhyme or reason to why some work and some don't. At any rate, I can't attach any files to any of my mail.... new ones, ones I'm trying to reply to or anything. I've seen that others have had this problems occur, but I have not found a solution based on any of the replies. Oh! The other thing is that its only happening on one of my computers. I have an older G4 that has the same mail setup and everything works fine. Its only on my G5 that this happens. I've tried tossing some preferences as suggested from some of the other posts, but still the same. Help me!

    How crazy would it be...
    OOPs, you don't want to ask me... I always resort to crazy things when nothing else works!
    Quit Mail. First I'd backup your whole Mail folder. Right click on it, choose Archive. Move the Mail.zip to a safe place. Only the plist will be separate.
    Try dragging this file to the Desktop, (in case we need to put it back), first, then logout/in, reconfigure your account required on this one...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.mail.plist
    If that doesn't work, now that you're all backed up & can get back where you are now... give it a rtry!

  • Can not add pdf files to my e-mail-it just grinds on a 851kb file (11kb worked)not using gmail. windows xp. recently wnld java update.

    downloaded some java update for downloading support from Ontrack. SInce then firefox will not attach pdf files to my e-mail. not using g-mail, using yahoo. Windows XP. It will add small files (11kb) but just grinds on a 851kb file and never attaches it.If I choose to unclick "enable java" - the "attach files" box disappears from the attach files menu.

    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
