  • Why do I have trouble with attachments being stripped when sending email via Earthlink Webmail using Firefox?

    I recently built a new computer running Win 8.1. However, I have had trouble sending and receiving attachments with Earthlink Webmail on Firefox. I sometimes cannot see attachments to emails I receive, although the size of the file indicates they are there. When I try to send an email with attachments, the browser contacts Earthlink, and then the message reappears, but the attachments have been stripped. If I hit Send again, the message goes, but without the attachments. If I re-attach the attachments and hit send, they are again stripped. I contacted Earthlink support, and they told me it is a problem with Firefox. I then tried IE and was able to send the attachments without a problem.
    I would really appreciate any help as Firefox is my browser of choice.

    1. Not sure how to send an email in a private browsing window... I use Earthlink Web Mail and I cannot find anything on that site about private browsing window.
    2. Have not tried this yet, but will when I get a chance.
    3. Not sure. My old computer ran XP. Never had the problem with it. Right now, it is not connected to the internet, so can't check it.
    4. I neglected to mention... I did try IE and it worked fine.
    I do have Norton 360 installed, but it was not a problem on the XP machine.
    Thanks for your response. I have been so busy lately that I just now picked up your response. I have not had time t to try anything else.
    As far as the file type, I was trying to send pdf files. Have not tried other file types.
    Earthlink limits messages (and attachments) to 20 MB. The files were less than 3 MB.

  • Can't Send Attachments Using Exchange Account

    For some reason I can't send attachments using my Exchange account on my iPhone. Pictures, Word docs, Excel Docs, doesn't matter. They just get stuck in my out box and I get the following message, "Cannot Send Mail - An error occurred while delivering this message." I can receive attachments just fine, but cannot send or forward them. If I use any of the other email accounts on my phone, it works fine. The Exchange account is the only issue. Is this some limitation with Exchange on an iPhone or something? Anyone ever have the same problem as was able to fix it? Thanks!

    I've got 38 iPhones deployed running the 3.1.2 OS against an Exchange 2007 server. Several of my users complain about the same issue, and I've seen it myself. I have found a workaround of sorts - I've found that if I've sent a message with an attachment and I get a failure to send, if I manually browse down to the Sent Items folder, that forces a replication of the Sent Items. The next time I do a manual sync, the e-mail with the attachment will go.
    I presume this has something to do with Exchange trying to put a copy of the e-mail in to your Sent Items at the same time the iPhone is trying to send the message.
    Potentially, this might be solved by turning off the option to always store your sent e-mails in the Sent Items. I have not yet tested that as a workaround as from a corporate standpoint and an ease-of-use standpoint, we want that e-mail in the Sent Items for reference.
    If anyone has any success with this fix, please let me know.

  • I can't send attachments with Thunderbird?

    I can't send attachments with Thunderbird. I can write a message but when I click on Attach, I get the message "Thunderbird has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." There is only a "CLOSE PROGRAM" button displayed and when I click on it Thunderbird stops running. I'm not sure whether this is a Thunderbird problem or a Windows 7 problem. Any ideas on what is causing this and how to fix it?

    Try to start Thunderbird in safe mode.

  • Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on Mac?

    Why can I open attachments (pptx and PDF) on iPhone but not on my MacAir (OS X 10.9.2)? Generally, I can open PDFs on my Mac, but in this case, I opened on iPhone, and not on computer! Also pptx file from one sender opened on iPhone, and not on Mac, and the same pptx sent from another person wouldn't open on either! Help!

    Hi there.  I think as far as PowerPoint files go (pptx) you will need a copy of Office or some other compatible software (e.g. Keynote) to open it on your Mac.  On an iPhone there is a viewer built in just so you can take a look at most common attachment types.  If you have a copy of Microsoft Office on your Mac you should be able to open the pptx files in PowerPoint.
    OS X definitely has a PDF viewer, it's called Preview.  I think you can also load Adobe Acrobat if you want but I've stayed away from it for years as I find Preview faster and better.
    If you still can't open a PDF file attached to an email message on your MacAir by double clicking on it, could you let us know what error message you get, or what happens?  That will help people to help you.

    My sister can see and hear me when we use FaceTime but my screen is just black...help

    Restore the device to factory settings and add your content, then try again.
    If no change, then something maybe wrong with the iSight camera at the front, so make an appointment with someone at the Genius bare at your local Apple retail store.

  • Can't send Attachments using Mail to connect toe Exchange Server 2007

    I struggle to send any emails with even the smallest of attachments via Mac Mail using Exchange 2007. I receive mail ok (intermittently slow but ok) although the Exchange Account does beach ball alot when checking for new mail. However, replying or sending an email that contains an attachment, even a small logo is a nightmare.


 I am using Mail 4.4 on Mac OS X 10.6.6 on an iMac. We use Exchange 2007 and it's run and managed by Microsoft "Microsoft Business Productivity Online Standard Suite" We are not allowed to change server settings. I am the only one in a small, remote-workforce company that lives in the UK and I keep being told that is the issue. However, I've found too many people with similar problems on the web to believe that, but I haven't found an answer. Any ideas??

  • Cannot open attachments in earthlink webmail

    I can't open any of my attachments when using my earthlink webmail in firefox. I have used it now for a couple of years with no problem. I can still open them in internet explorer so its something with firefox. What can I do?

    It makes no sense to download messages from your email provider's server to a local computer and then forward them out to another computer.
    Cut out the middleman, computer in this case, and forward the email at your email providers server. Most providers have this option available at their web mail portal.

  • Sending attachments to Eudora users using Apple MAIL

    I have recently changed from Entourage to MAIL in Tiger and it seems to work well, however I can't seem to send attachments to anyone using Eudora. They recieve the email but the attachment is missing (apparently the recipient company's server is stopping the attachment getting to the recipient). When I change back to Entourage it works fine???
    Can anyone help
    Thanks

    I have the same problem now in Mountain Lion, (and previously in lion).
    As this is a continuing problem, perhaps someone who has recently bought a Mac could use their free (for a year) sub. to <whatever it is called> and ask the specific question.
    Also, if someone can post the address to send Apple suggestions, I (and all of us) could send a firm request for this to be sorted once and for all.
    I have just search Google on this and found a complaint dated 2007! It advised the zip route.

  • How can I send attachments as an icon and not a full page pasted in my document?

    I send a lot of attachments in my job and I am new to apple.  90% of the time I can not get an attachment to be the same as when I used a pc.  It paste it as a full document.  I have looked at help and I have been able a few times to click "view as an icon" but often that is not given to me as an option.  I have checked in the send mail box 'send word friendly" but still most of the time I can not send an attachment properly. does it need to be a certian extention or what?  Why?  Help!!

    The easiest way to do this from the Finder is simply drag the document icon onto the Mail icon in the Dock. That will open Mail with the document already attached.
    If the recipient reports problems, try compressing the document first. Highlight the document and choose "Compress" from the Finder's File menu. Then drag it to Mail.
    If the recipient still reports problems, you may first have to save the document in Word in a compatible format. If your PC colleagues are using an earlier version of Word you will have to use the lower common format.

  • Can't send attachments in mail since upgrading

    Hi-
    Since upgrading, I can't send attachements in Mail.  The filenames appear all grayed out and they can't be highlighted.  In order to attach, I have to open through Finder and drag over into Mail. 
    What gives?

    Usability and interface issues with Gmail aside, I did figure something out. (I don't really use Gmail, it just seemed like a good at the time when I was setting up an account for a friend so I could help out with issues.)
    I couldn't add attachments to a new message either. In fact, when I clicked the link to add an attachment, the link disappeared. I discarded the message, opened a new one, click the add attachment link, and the link disappeared again.
    Turning off the blocking of pop-up windows didn't change the outcome.
    So I opened a new message and looked around.
    I noticed a little icon in the upper right of the message, just above the To: field, a sort of double square with an arrow in it. It looked almost like icon used on Windows to indicate maximizing the window for full screen, except it had an arrow that looked like the "Forward" arrow when you want to forward a message instead of replying. No tool tip came up so I decided to try it.
    This made the message disappear, and popped open a new smaller window which eventually loaded the message. Looked about the same as before but without the rest of Gmail. Curiously, the add attachments link actually worked, without disappearing. A dialog popped open (looked like from the OS, not a browser window) and I was able to select a file. It appeared listed below the subject and above the message, with a progress indicator that took several seconds (half a minute?) before any progress happened. It did eventually get started and completed the upload.

  • I can't send attachments

    I am supposed to be able to send attachments up to 25Mb however it does not matter how small or what format I try and use I see the file name and file size in the bar near the top of the screen but I only get a spinning thing as though it is attaching a file.
    I can just leave this until it times out. There is no problem with my PC as I can send attachments from my hotmail address.
    Any ideas ???????????????????

    Hi.
    This sounds like something locally is interferring, e.g. a security product such as anti-virus or firewall. Can you check the settings of any of those products in case they are indeed getting in the way ?

  • Can't send attachments to my wife who is in the same room. She gets the message without attachments

    My wife's computer is about 6 feet from mine. I can send her mail but not attachments. She can send me mail and attachments. I can not figure out what changes i need to make to send attachments. I use apple mail software.

    What Mac OS version is on each computer?
    If both are running Mail, you may get faster help by posting in the forum for that OS version:
    Mac OS X v10.7 Lion
    Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard
    Mac OS X v10.5 Leopard
    Mac OS X v10.4 Tiger
    Look for the "Mail & Address Book" section of each forum that matches your OS.
    This forum is primarily for hardware issues with iMacs made before 2006 so doesn't get as much traffic.
