Cant open certain emails with attachments

Hi
I'm having a problem with my iphone running ios 7.1.2 with exchange mail server, cant open up certain emails with atttachments, no similar pattern can be new email or replied email, any type of attachement, i just get nothing, any ideas?
Thanks

close out of the mail app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
Then do a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the device to boot back up.
Then check emails again.

  • My iPhone, iPad and G5 cant open PDF or Word attachments on emails generated from a specific PHP written system.

    I use iPhone, iPad and G5 receiving emails generated from a PHP written system hosted on 1and1.  I cant open PDF or Word attachments on any emails. The attachment's file names are displayed at the bottom of the email with no link.  No problem on Windows Outlook.   Is it me, 1and1 or the PHP system!? Does Apple OS handle email attachments differently to Windows?  Help!?

    Followed your instructions on my iPhone running 4.3.5 and my iPad which is running iOS 5 beta 4...  IT WORKS!
    Thanks a lot!

This doesn't happen when I use Safari.

    Hi All,

  • Can not view (some) emails with attachments

    There has already been some discussion about individuals getting the "This message has not been downloaded from the server" error.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=4983643
    Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I am using GMail and am having problems reading (some) emails with attachments. I can read the first several lines through the preview view, but can not open (some) emails without getting the "This message has not been downloaded from the server" error.
    The problem appears to be completely random. The problem occurs sometimes after I open the email on my computer, and other times it occurs before I open the email on my computer. And sometimes opening the email on my computer does not cause any problem opening the email on my phone.
    I have seen this problem on two different phones now and have re-created the email accounts on both phone several times. But the problems keeps (eventually) appearing--for some, but not all emails.
     PowerBook G4, Macintosh 512K     iPod nano (2nd Gen 8GB), iPhone (8GB)

    So, I think things are actually sending/downloading and it's just taking time and the iphone is defaulting to the error message.
    I don't think that's the case. I have several week-old messages on my iPhone (each under 300k) that still say "The message has not been downloaded from the server."
    I've been connected to wifi for over an hour now, so that's plenty of time to downloaded these few small emails. I can read the "preview" of the message from the Inbox screen, but when I click on the message itself, I get the error.
    And, those messages with the attachments that I was able to open this morning? I can no longer open them now. Very, very frustrating.

  • I am using a mac mini (10.8.3) with Mac Mail 6.3 (1503).  Whenever I try to forward an email with attachments, the attachments do not make it.  They show being sent, but the attachments never are sent.

    Hey Guys,
    The title says it all.  Whenever I receive an email with attachments, I will try to forward the email to someone with the attachments.  Mac Mail shows that the attachments are attached, but the receiver says the attachments are not there. Our mail host is Rackspace.  We are setup with IMAP.  It should be noted that we are experiencing similar issues with OS 10.5.8 with Mac Mail 3.6 (936).
    We assumed Rackspace was the problem, so we logged into their webmail portal and tested it and the attachments were received as normal, which points everything back to Mac Mail.  We even had an ISP change but the problem do not change.
    I have researched the problem, and there seems to be evidence of this being a known bug with Mac Mail, but I am hoping there is a workaround.  The company is unwilling to move to a different mail client since they use Daylite 4, which does not support Thunderbird.

    Back up all data.
    1. Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder may open, or you may get an error message that the item can't be found. Either result is normal. If the folder does open and has contents, move the contents to the Desktop. Relaunch Mail and test. If there's no change, put the contents of the folder back and quit Mail again.
    2. Repeat with this line:
    /Library/Mail/Bundles
    This time you may be prompted for your login password when you remove the items. Make sure they're removed from the folder and not just copied to the Desktop. If necessary, copy them first and then move the originals to the Trash.

  • Saving email with attachments together

    I am running leopard on an iMac. I am a recent convert to Mac from the PC, and since I get a lot of emails with attachments, I simply want to save the email and attachment as one entity, as I used to do on my PC. It is very important that I be able to easily know which attachments came with which email. Ideally I would like to retrieve a saved email from a folder, open it, and also see the attachments. Currently, when I try to save an email that contains attachments, I go to File and pull down SAVE AS... A box pops up asking me for the location and it also contains a box at the bottom for me to check if I also want to save the attachments. I check the box, but no attachments are saved. I can go under File and pull down to Save Attachments, and it will save them to wherever I want, but I need the email and attachments together as one unit, for later retrieval. SO CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT I AM DOING WRONG HERE ??

    Ok, first your attachments in Leopard Mail are saved in homefolder/library/Mail Downloads, so whatever you do, do not delete attachments in that folder.
    Second, if you have an IMAP account, go to mail>preferences>accounts>advanced... and make sure that for "keep copies of messages for offline viewing" the option "all messages and their attachments" is chosen.
    Third, where are you trying to save these emails, outside of Leopard Mail? I would suggest you save them within Leopard Mail, in mailboxes you will have created for that effect - to create a mailbox go to mailbox>new mailbox, choose the location you want to create the mailbox in as in under your IMAP account, or on your mac, and choose a name for your mailbox. Once that mailbox is created, you can move the emails you want to keep by either selecting the email(s), dragging and dropping in the mailbox you want to keep them, or you can right click and move to, or you can go to message>move to...
    hope this helps.

  • Fetching email with attachments in Tomcat

    I'm trying to process emails with attachments using following code and it works fine in standalone java application, but when I run this code on Tomcat it treates all messages as not multipart. Class of all contents got from messages is SharedByteArrayInputStream.
    I'm using jdk1.6.0_27 and javamail1_4_5
    I put mail.jar in WEB-INF/lib of my war.
    Can anyone help my how to deal with this? What's wrong?
    package test;
    import java.util.Arrays;
    import java.util.List;
    import java.util.Properties;
    import javax.mail.Folder;
    import javax.mail.Message;
    import javax.mail.MessagingException;
    import javax.mail.Multipart;
    import javax.mail.Session;
    import javax.mail.Store;
    public class Main {
    private static Store store;
    private static Folder folder;
    * @param args
    * @throws Exception
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    try {
    List<Message> messages = getMessages("...", "...", "...");
    for (Message mess : messages) {
    System.out.println(mess.getSentDate());
    Object content = mess.getContent();
    if (content instanceof Multipart) {
    System.out.println("miltipart");
    } else {
    System.out.println("plain");
    } finally {
    close();
    public static List<Message> getMessages(String host, String userName, String password) throws Exception {
    if (store != null || folder != null) {
    throw new IllegalStateException("There are open and closed messages exist");
    // create empty properties
    Properties props = new Properties();
    // get session
    Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
    try {
    // get the store
    store = session.getStore("pop3");
    store.connect(host, userName, password);
    // get folder
    folder = store.getFolder("INBOX");
    folder.open(Folder.READ_ONLY);
    // get directory
    return Arrays.asList(folder.getMessages());
    } catch (MessagingException e) {
    throw new Exception("Exception while mail receiving ", e);
    public static void close() throws MessagingException {
    // close connection
    if (folder != null) {
    folder.close(false);
    if (store != null) {
    store.close();
    folder = null;
    store = null;
    }

    But I found another interesting issue.
    When I run my application everything works fine on first iteration. According to my code I get default instance of Session, get Store, get Folder and at last getMessages. After processing messages I close folder and store.
    But if I don't restart my application and try to get messages again all of the SAME messages became plain (SharedByteArrayInputStream) again (as it was earlier).
    If I restart my application first iteration works fine and others fails.
    In both iterations used the same instance of class where I put Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader(BaseEmailService.class.getClassLoader());
    What I must reinitialize to make it works on each iteration?

  • Mail crashes on opening any message with attachments

    mail crashes on opening any message with attachments
    this started happening about a month ago. I thought the problem was that there was too much mail in the program -
    so, I acquired a program called MAILSTEWARD (which I recommend!) and it stores & saves my old mail.
    I reset MAIL, so it kept my address and smart folder instructions etc, but all the mail itself was gone (I forget how I did that - I probably will try it again...)
    for a few weeks, everything was fine - I could open an eMail with an attachment, and it worked.
    but now it started crashing again everytime there's an attachment!
    don't know what to do - there's only a month's worth of mail in there (which I should clean out anyhow) - but it seems to me that's not too much...
    thanks!
    w

    that's it - I ran the updater - and I believe I have been able to use it all day without the program crashing when it encounters an attachment.
    one goofy thing I noticed, for the first time, there appear to be two applications folders on my start-up drive (1) in my user folder (2) in the "main" hard drive folder.
    MAIL is in both - I believe the "main" one was updated; when I turned on the "user" MAIL it crashed when I opened an eMail with an attachment; when I opened the same eMail with the "main" mail there was no problem.
    now what does this tell us?
    thanks again!
    will

  • Unable to open certain email messages

    Hi,
    I've configured my gmail account on nokia messaging on my 5800 XM. I get notified on new email and I've been able to get my emails as well.
    But there is this weird problem with certain emails. When I click on the email, it retrieves the message switches to open that email, but immediately switches back to the list of emails. I've tried a lot of times, but this seems to happen consistently for some emails. Is there any reason why I'm unable to open certain emails?
    (I don't really see anything special about these emails that don't open)
    Regards,
    Anand

  • Hello, i opened an email with photo attachment, it is still trying to download and has blocked my ipad2. I foolishly turned it off and now can`t turn it on as it just shows the spinning circle icon 0 help- novice user here

    Help< I opened an email with photo attachements and it is taking all day to download, I cant delete it,  it just stops mail from working. Everything else was fine till i thought turning off the ipad and trying again would work. It didn`t, I cant turn it on at all - itjust shows the spinning wheel (loading?) icon and nothing else. Being a novice and ive only had this for a couple of weeks i need help!

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
