Hello..when I download attachments from any email..iPages opens and says some features are not supported and cuts out photos and lengthens my attachments

hello..when I download attachments from any email..iPages opens and says some features are not supported and cuts out photos and lengthens my attachments

What format are the attachments? If Pages will not display them properly you will need an application that does. Pages usually opens word documents but can give problems at times, if they are MS Word documents, try Libre Office or failing that you may have to purchase MS Word for Mac, maybe you will need to buy the complete Office suite.
The other possiblity is that you already have a suitable application and Pages is loading the file by default, if so change the default application to open that file type.

I cannot download photos from my apple iphone 4

I cannot download photos from my apple iphone 4. I rang apple who took me through some instructions and talked me through to what to do. We tried both a laptop pc (windows 7) and an apple macbook pro and tried two different cables.
Cannot seem to download any photos at all, both laptop do not seem to recognise the device.
Apple told me to email the photos, this is impracticle as there is such a large quantity.
My issue is still not resolved.
Can you help??

1. You did not get an error message telling you that your iPhoto library was getting full. You got a message telling you that your HD was getting full, right?
OS X needs about 10 gigs of hard drive space for normal OS operations - things like virtual memory, temporary files and so on.
Without this space your Mac will slow down as the OS hunts for space on the disk, files will be fragmented, also slowing things down, apps will crash and the risk of data corruption - that is damage to your files, photos, music - increases exponentially.
Your first priority is to make more space on that HD. Nothing else can be done until you do.
Purchase an external HD and move your Photos and Music to it. Both iPhoto and iTunes can run perfectly well with the Library on an external disk.
Your Library has been damaged from being run on an overfull disk.
How much free space on it now?

I cannot download photos from icloud to my laptop.

Hi Xanderway,
I see that you are having an issue with your Photo Stream in iCloud on your PC. I have an article with some troubleshooting steps you may wish to take in order to resolve this issue, and it can be found here:
Get help using My Photo Stream - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203511
I added some photos to My Photo Stream on my Windows PC, but they don't appear in the Recently Added album or My Photo Stream album on any of my devices.
To see if your computer and other devices are online, try to view www.apple.com. If you can't connect to the Internet, iCloud Photos can't send or receive updates from My Photo Stream. You might need to troubleshoot your Internet connection on your PC, Mac, or iOS devices.
On your computer, open iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel) and make sure that you're signed in to the same iCloud account that you're using on your other supported devices.
In Windows 8.1, go to the Start screen, click the down arrow in the lower-left corner, then click the iCloud app.
In Windows 8, go to the Start screen, and click the iCloud tile.
In Windows 7, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Click the Options button and make sure that My Photo Stream is turned on.
Close and reopen iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel).
Restart your computer.
Make sure that you used one of the methods below to add photos to My Photo Stream with iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel) on your Windows PC.
Add the photos using the Add Photos button in iCloud Photos:
Open a File Explorer window (Windows 8 or 8.1) or Windows Explorer window (Windows 7).
Under the Favorites menu, click iCloud Photos.
Double-click My Photo Stream.
Click Add photos.
Select the photos that you'd like to add and click OK.
Or you can copy photos from a folder to the iCloud Photos Uploads folder:
Confirm the location of your Uploads folder.
Open iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel).
In Windows 8.1, go to the Start screen, click the down arrow in the lower-left corner, then click the iCloud app.
In Windows 8, go to the Start screen, then click the iCloud tile.
In Windows 7, choose Start menu > All Programs > iCloud > iCloud.
Click the Options button next to iCloud Photos.
Open a File Explorer window (Windows 8 or 8.1) or Windows Explorer window (Windows 7).
Go to the iCloud Photos folder location listed in iCloud for Windows 4.0 (or iCloud Control Panel).
Open the Uploads folder.
Open the folder that contains the photos that you want to add to My Photo Stream.
Copy them into the Uploads folder.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

I cannot download photos from my digital camera to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to successfully do this up to 4 days ago but not yesterday. My camera/device is recognized in the Source List but photos won't download for me to import to library.

I cannot download photos from my digital camera (via a cable) to Iphoto (version '09). I have been able to do this successfully up til 4 days ago but not yesterday (Dec. 25th). My camera/device is recognized in the Source List, but when it tries to download the photos, all I get are the words "Loading Photos" in the area where the thumbnail pictures usually display. The little "gear" symbol next to the words but it just goes round and round. Nothing ever downloads, and instead of showing me how many pictures there are to import it just says "No photos". So therefore I cannot import the photos to my library since they won't even download.
I was getting an error message a few days ago that my Iphoto library was getting full, so I emptied my trash in both Iphoto and on my computer. I had this same problem back in October and emptying the trash and getting rid of some photos did help (can I really be using that much storage space for the pictures?). But it didn't help this time.
Any suggestions as to what to do to solve the problem? I would try taking the SD card out and inserting that into the slot on the computer to see if I could load pictures that way; but the last time I did that, they wouldn't load. Not sure if I lost pics from the disc or not.
Thank you,

Cannot download photos from Kodak Z612 using new Photos

I had no problem downloading photos from my Kodak Z612 camera using iPhoto. Now I cannot download anything using the new Photos or Image Capture. As in earlier posts, re. iPhoto April 2014, I get a list of the .jpg photos that I wanted to import and a message that says the files are in the wrong format. Really? .jpg is the wrong format? I tried a couple of work-arounds from April 2014, but they did not work. Does anyone have any ideas on how to download photos from my Z 612 using the new Photos?

Thanks for the info, but I have done that before searching for answers to the problem. I, and anyone else with the same problem, should not be required to jump through extra hoops to do what we have always done with iPhoto, whether it is a Kodak or a Nikon.

Cannot download pictures from incoming email

This is happening when I use .mac webmail OR my email client at home. When I use webmail, I get a message that says: Unable to process your request. At home, it just tries and tries and nothing happens.
I have also tried to forward the email with the picture to another email accoung, and I cannot forward the message.
I can download the same picture using another email account without any problem.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

This happened for two days, but works today. Strange, but glad it's fixed!

Cannot download itune music purchases - email account before adding new account email now cannot get without paying again-- what to do???

This is bad - I have an Apple automated response that they got my report on 12/6, 12/10 and 12/14, and I haven't heard anything from them since the 6th when I got one reply that told me to do things I tried before reporting the problem. Between the 6th and 10th I replied to their response 4 times and they ignored me, forcing me to report a problem with two more items that wont download but getting no response.
How do they get away with this kind of behavior, especially for someone with FIVE Core 2 Duo macs and thousands of dollars of of iTunes store purchases? I'm getting really ******.

Cannot send mail from any mail account

I have a Mac Mini, late 2014 model, running OS X Yosemite version 10.10.2. I have constant difficulty sending mail from any of my mail accounts; these are iCloud, Googlemail, Yahoo and a personal one which uses 123-reg.co.uk. I am currently located in Greece, but have been having trouble for ages, even in the UK. I can receive mail, but I don't seem able to send it. Error message is usually simply cannot send mail using this server, select a different server. However, when connection doctor is run, all servers appear to be connected and I am logged in. Any ideas please?

Mail continues to download messages from delted email account

I deleted a Zimbra email account from Mail (Mail>preferences>followed steps for deleting the account), but Mail continues to download new messages from Zimbra. I ran mail connection doctor and the deleted account still appears with a green status indicator. This is the only evidence of the old account with the exception of the emails arriving in my Mail inbox. I would like to completely eliminate Mail's connection to the Zimbra account.
Mail version 7.3
OS X 10.9.5

Went to Preferences, clicked on the account in the left side menu, clicked the minus sign. Before deleting the account the computer toggled me to another window for managing Internet Accounts. I clicked the minus sign again for that same email account and the account no longer appears in my email account list.
Based on other posts about deleting an email account, I was expecting to see this prompt: "The account's setup information, mailboxes, messages, notes and to do's will be deleted permanently from your computer"
However, that prompt didn't appear. Instead I was directed to the Internet Accounts preferences pane as described above. While in Mail, if I go to preferences, the deleted account is not there and I do not have the option to send emails via the deleted account. The only functionality still enabled is the receipt of new messages.

Cannot download archives from my gmail account to my iPad 2.

Cannot download neither PDF files nor jpg files. I press the files for a while it appears the countdown button but ten nothing else happens. Also i cannot find it anywhere in ipad2.
Thanks!

Its pretty much a straightforward process to add an email account to the iPad. If you have having problems, maybe the best thing to do is to delete the count, restart the iPad and start all over again.

One of the most frequently made mistakes with setting up email accounts would have to be using the wrong case letter in the wrong spot. Make sure that you enter capital letters or lower case letters where they should be.
