Why does Reader XI download email attachments to my Download folder before I am able to print them?

After last update my Reader XI automatically downloads email attachments (.pdf) to my Downloads folder. I then have to open that file in order to print it. Before, the attachment would open in Reader and I could print from that direct.

Windows 8, Firefox email client. What happens is that I click on attachment links in emails, which are .pdf files. Instead of a menu allowing opening of the file with Reader, the file gets automatically downloaded to my Downloads folder. I then have to open that folder, click on the file name... then Reader opens and I can view the file as well as print it from the Reader menu.

Email attachments not completely downloaded

I received an email on my iPhone, with two attachments. The icons for the attachments had the download symbol on them, and indicated that each attachment was 2.9mb. When I tapped the icons to download the attachment, only 2.1mb of each attachment was downloaded.
Opening the attachments (.docx files) in iPhone mail revealed that any pictures were missing, with just whitespace were they should have been. Is this a known problem? It's nothing to do with my ISP's maximum message size - I also had the email sent to another mail account and opened the attachments on a Windows machine. All was fine.
Help!

Is it known about - yes probably.
The .docx viewer can still only interpret standard file/image types so iof there is a drawing inside a document which it can interpret to view, but is in a format whioch it cannot handle, then there could be a problem.
PDF's don't suffer from it and I suspect the image to which you refer was drawn in the Word document rather than being an imported JPg image file ?

How do I get internet files/email attachments to automatically download when I open them again?

Hi - I was wondering of someone could help. I recently installed Adobe Reader... and very quickly regretted it. I deleted it but found that in Safari I could no longer open PDFs (I got a black screen instead). Following advice in the forums, I deleted the two Adobe plugins I found in Library. This worked and I am now able to view PDFs through Safari again. However...
Before all this happened, whenever I opened an attachment in Mail or an online document (PDF, Word etc.), it was automatically saved to my downloads folder. Since the events detailed above, this no longer happens - I have to save documents manually. I'd be really grateful if anyone can help me make it download automatically again...
Any ideas?
Cheers!

Word email attachments get corrupted from desktop to laptop

I've been sending Microsoft Word attachments via email from my iMac (mid-2007 Intel running Yosemite) to my laptop (Macbook Pro running Mavericks). The downloads always come through as corrupt, though the original files are fine. (If I put them on a flash drive, I can open them on the Macbook.) The Macbook connects via wifi while the iMac is plugged in to a router and modem, in case that has anything to do with it. Any ideas?
Thanks very much --
Christine

I should add that Word documents I send from the laptop to iMac come through fine.

Email Attachments do not download

When viewing an email message with an attachment, I see an icon on the bottom of the message with the filename of the attachment. However, when I touch that attachment to begin the download, it never reaches past 0% and just sits there doing nothing.
I am using an iPhone 3G with an Exchange connection to push my email to the device.

I have this same problem (the file name is there, but always 0% on the download attempt). None of the supported file formats (PDF, XLS, DOC) will download in my Exchange email account on the iPhone 3G. To test this, I set up a gmail account on the iPhone 3G and forwarded some of the emails and attachments from the Exchange account to the gmail account. They opened perfectly in the gmail account on the iPhone 3G. I can therefore only assume this is a problem in the Exchange client used on the iPhone. Anyone have a fix for this?

Email attachments would not download

Since I have changed my Blackberry to a Torch 9800 (it look like it was from that time) I can't have access to attachments on emails. I have 4 different servers of different type and the same problem goes for all 4. When I try to open an attachment, a red clock showing that it is down loading shows up but nothing opens. Even if I try forcing it, same thing... I saw Bell support people and they say it is Blackberry problem... Please help ! Thks,

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
I suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Delete and Resend Service Books
KB05000Delete the service book for the BlackBerry Internet Service email account from the BlackBerry smartphone
If you have no CMIME entry, then skip the deletion
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness creeps in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should try deleting and re-adding your BIS configuration for the affected email accounts. Otherwise, you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support, who can escalate into RIM if needed (it seems they were not offering that to you last time you spoke with them).
Good luck!

Email messages get auto selected as I scroll

I seem to have accidently turned on some setting, as a result of which when i scroll through the message/email list, all messages get selected. Options available at this point are - Mark Messages Opened; Mark Messages UnOpened; or Delete Selected messages.
I am unable to open any single message because of the auto selection. Can someone please help with how to turn off this setting?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You likely have your SHIFT key depressed, which when depressed will select consecutive messages.
Click the Escape (right of the trackball) key to unselect any messages.
And make sure the Shift key is not pressed, and scroll again.
Any luck?
If still the same, do this -- With the BlackBerry device powered ON, remove the battery a few seconds and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
And try again.

MBP photo email attachments not fully downloaded

Any idea why this is happening?

Name/type of downloaded email attachments is changed to attachment.ashx or something similar

I access an email account at the site below which provides Microsoft Outlook Web access. Since the last Firefox update to version 8.0, the true name/type of email attachments that I download is changed to attachment.ashx (or attachment1.ashx etc if there are several downloaded files. This is very inconvenient. Note that the problem does not exist when downloading attachments from aol.com. There is also no problem when I use IE as browser. Version/system details below are correct.

Outlook Web Access sends an illegal Content-Dispositon header to Firefox. This is no longer allowed in Firefox 8. Firefox 9 will have a workaround for this so that Microsoft has time to fix their software.<br>

My email attachments download but don't open

My email attachments seem to download Ok but do not open. This problem has only happened in the last week or so. Can anyone help me?

Quit the mail app - restart your iPad - launch mail again and see if the attachments open.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

Email attachments as icons

Is this the only real solution for email attachments as icons: download and install the attachment tamer plug-in: http://lokiware.info/Attachment-Tamer

If you would rather not see the attachment preview by default when you add attachements to your Mail documents:
Launch Terminal, and then type or paste the following command after the prompt:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Once you do that, quit Mail and relaunch it, or just start it up if it wasn’t running already. Now, when you look at messages with attachments, you’ll just see an icon. Double click on it as per usual to bring it up in the associated application, like Preview or Word.
To change it back to the way it was, simply run the following command:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool no
When you relaunch Mail again, you’ll see attachments with their visual previews again.

BESX SP3 MR6 - Email attachments are now ALWAYS Auto-download - not good with duplicate attachment names

Does anybody else see where email attachments are now always auto-download on all devices. The policy option was phased out in 5.0 but the default at that time was no (to auto-download). Now they all auto-download.
1. PDF will not display because they must stay as attachment to render on Blackberry device. Says
“This attachment type cannot be viewed on your device”
2. Phone messages attached as voicemail.wav - first one works, but since no longer the "Preview" option second says "Fielname exists - Rename?" Some devcies you can save and go back - others you can't.

Surely there's an expert on this forum who can help?

How to turn off email auto download?

Hi All,
I'm running Tiger (10.4) on one hard drive and I'm running Leopard (10.5) on another - working on familiarizing myself and looking for problems. 10.4 uses Mail.app 2.1.3 while 10.5 uses Mail.app 3.5.
With Mail 3.5 - I've been unable to find a way to switch from auto-downloading of emails in favor of "Manual." This "feature" of auto-dowloading emails has always bugged me (a lot). So I use "Manual" downloading with v. 2.1.3. and want the same "sanity" with 3.5.
Secondary problems: I notice that 3.5 cannot verify the certificate of my ISP Pop server and keeps warning me "this may be a fake certificate" and gives me options to "stop" or "connect." Geez, there's no doubt about the SAME certificate when using Mail.app 2.1.3.
Also, it appears that Mail 3.5 is taking "forever" to send (upload) image attachments. I haven't had a chance to really track this down, but it seems like Mail may be converting every .jpg file to .png - which increases file size. I watched the Activity window and saw upload speeds of from 0 to 2.7 kbs - but suddenly the indicator bar jumps ehead and the mail is sent.
Any have any idea how to stop auto-downloading of emails with Mail.app 3.5?
Any further help with those secondary problems will also be appreciated.
TX in advance.

Thanks Klaus1 - it's interesting to see that Apple designers still have not caught on to the idea that "icons" for important things need to be distinguishable from one another.
That is, the icon for the overall preferences panel (in 10.4) looks a whole lot like the icon used for Mail 3.5 prefs (in 10.5) and it's located in the same spot as overall prefs on Mail 2.1.5. So I naturally thought the icon on 3.5 was for "overall prefs" and ignored it. Thanks Apple, for letting your employees take so many naps during their work shifts.
You get a "helpful" for your post. Now if I can get responses on the slow upload (on DSL) by Mail.app and figure out why it doesn't recognize my (national based) ISP's certificate, I'll be a happy camper.
