Email Attachments (what happens to downloaded attachements)

I just downloaded a 7 MB Zip file to my ipad mini and then viewed the contents with the ZIP app.
My question is...
Where was the file downloaded and do I need to delete it or will it go away on its own?

It remains in Mail until you delete the mail message. I'm not familer with the specifics of ZIP, but assume if you open the file with it, it is stored there as well.

Help! I just updated my I phone and I now have over 4,000 emails. What happened and how do I delete them?

Aren't they in your iTunes library? If so, sync them back to your phone. If not, redownload them (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519).

What happened to the attachment icon in Mail?

I just upgraded to Lion, and I noticed that there wasn't an icon for mail attachments. I looked into preferences and no option there. I have to go into the menu to attach a file. What happened? That seems to be a pretty basic function.

You're right - it's not there, but it's such a long time since I've used it, I hadn't missed it! You can either go to File > Attach file, or do what I always do which is to open the folder containing the doc(s) you want to attach and simply drag onto the body of the email. You can also select more than one doc at once by using the Shift key (or the Apple key if they are not sequential) and attach several.

Video Files as email attachments - what formats on iPhone 3Gs ?

Hi
This may turn out to be a dumb newbie quesiton but what format video files can I play when sent as email attachments?
WMV shows as an attachment with the Qucktime icon but can't download/play
MPG allows you to launch but then says "Movie format is not supported"
Do I need to install a specific player app or is there a setting somewhere that I need to make?... or is this not possible (seems unlikely)
Plays vids on YouTube etc no problem.
Thanks!
Iain

While I was repairing my mac...what happened to Downloads?

Hi all, so where to begin? Long story short, during some renovation work to my home, I had to switch my mac off and pack it away. 6 weeks later, unpacked it, set it up, switched it on and...well not sure what happened. It booted, then rebooted and looked like it did when I first bought it, then it rebooted again and I was confronted with a grey screen with a folder and question mark flinging itself about! Tried all the usual, nothing would get it to boot, so I blitzed an external hard drive, installed Snow Leopard on it and managed to get going. Ran disk utility on the internal drive and it said the disk had errors, couldn't be repaired, please back up and format. Now, I had moved a lot of stuff previously onto my laptop, just for storage, so, after a few stif drinks, I took the plunge and erased the hard drive, re-installed Snow Leopard and to my surprise, here we are. So, hint number one, always make sure you have a back up somewhere, because I didn't have everything, and am now on the hunt for all my stuff.
Now, it appears that the downloads section of Support, which I used a lot, is now the Apps Store. I had downloaded loads of lovely email stationary via Downloads, along with silly effects for Photo Booth, effects for iChat...and now they are all gone and I haven't a clue where to find them!
Anyone got any clues? Had also downloaded some fantastic screensavers with clocks in wonderful backgrounds...all gone
Oh and hint nomber two, always make sure you have a back up somewhere
So basically I'm wanting to know where to find all the email stationary, screensavers etc.
Also wanting to make the point about backing up everything.
And also, if your Mac throws a hissy fit, I really recommend having an external drive, if you can install your OS onto it and get your mac going, it is a big big help!

Am running OS X 10.6.8
Haven't done the hardware test as yet, have just managed to get the mac up nd running again.
Am more looking for where to download my email stationary, but will have to do the test, thanks for reminding me

What happens after downloading iPod Updater-after clicking restore?

I have a problem with my ipod that's a bit complicated and can anyone just help? See what happened was, my ipod was in a scan mode, so my cousin tells me. After the battery died, I recharged it, hoping it would stop but it didn't. The next day, all the songs in my ipod are gone and now, I downloaded the ipod updater and plugged in my ipod and clicked restore, and now I don't know if it's ok now. It still says Do Not Disconnect. Should I or shouldn't I? what the **** is up?

It could probably be in the Hard Drive mode. If its not, I would recommend resetting.
Turn on hold, then turn off. Then hold Menu, and the center button at the same time for about 6 seconds, should make the apple logo show and it should fix it.

What happens after download complete? I'm not seeing a program, an icon or any next steps...

What are the next steps to open the trial software after the Download Assistant has been installed? No instructions for next steps!

Biggly2000 what happens if you initiate the download again? You are directed to choose the download location at the time of download. If you have chosen a different location such as an Application folder or Program Files then the installation files will not be in your downloads folder.
I would recommend reviewing Troubleshoot Adobe Download Assistant for several common errors which occur when using the Adobe Download Assistant.

IMac stolen - what happens to downloaded music/videos?

Help! House was burgled and imac was stolen. It had years of itunes downloads + cd collection. Is there anyway to avoid having to download (and pay!) for these again? Appreciate any help or advice.
Thanks.

Sorry to hear about the loss. And sorry again, but officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased tracks. It's your responsibility to make backup copies in case something goes wrong with your system or it gets stolen, as unfortunately it apparently did in your case, and you lose all the information on your hard drive. If you haven't made a backup and don't have your tracks on an iPod, you're probably out of luck and will need to repurchase your tracks. Your homeowner's insurance may cover the cost of replacement if necessary.
You can try contacting iTunes Music Store Customer Service and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis, but don't count on it.
Good luck.

My computer and iPhone mail programs have stopped downloading my email. What happened?

Yesterday, my Mail program stopped downloading my mail messages from my email server. I noticed it won't download to my phone, either. Actually, it lets a few messages through, but not all. I went in preferences, but everything looks normal. What could be the problem?

Pdf email attachments - error msg after download "not decoding" - creating DWORD key did NOT work!

I went to REGEDIT and installed the DWORD key as suggested by ADOBE to fix problem created by security update & it did NOT work!! Attempting to save then open the files gives same error msg. I sent multiple emails from a book scanner at the library with pdf files in quick and searchable formats & neither will open! Someone else that I forwarded the email to was able to open with no problem & he is running version 10. There is no option to load earlier versions!!!! I am running version 11 on Windows XP.

I scanned hundreds of pages using a book scanner @ the law library - the USB port was not working so I had to choose the send by email attachment option. Received 30 emails & NONE (so far) of the pdf attachments will open - the error msg states "Reader could not open "doc" because it is either not a supported file or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)." I forwarded 2 emails to someone else running version 10 - he had no prob opening from email (I have version 11 & then I also reinstalled 9.5 & STILL getting the same error msg)! Used someone elses's computer who is running version 10 & same error msg. Each time I try a fix I then go to a 'new' unopened email & attempt to open an attachment that hasn't been previously downloaded. Adobe supposedly has a fix - from Regedit - create DWORD key @ HKCU/Adobe/Reader/11/AV General "bValidateBytesBeforeHeader" - I did that & restarted computer each time I installed etc - still NO solution! So unless you have another idea I have a THIRD 6 hour roundtrip to the Law Library in KC in my near future!

Why can't my emails get sent on iPad they used to without problem. And not don't. I have Internet service but no email service, what happened?

HHave Internet service but no email service on my ipad. Why? I always have to plug in my computer to send emails. It is a big problem I am getting worn out dealing with. Help?

Hey there Criseal,
It sounds like you are unable to get your email on your iPad suddenly. I'd recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article found here, named:
iOS: Troubleshooting Mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3899
Log in to your email provider's website to make sure that the account is active and the password is correct.
Make sure your settings are correct using Mail Settings Lookup.
Restart your iOS device.
Delete the affected email account from your device.
Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the affected email account.
Tap Delete Account.
Add your account again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

My email account has disappeared overnight. Now a screen appears with several email options and I cannot access my email. What happened?

Why would the way I get my email change overnight? I used to be able to access it immediately upon touching the mail icon. Now a screen appears with several email account options.

Does the account still show on the right-hand ide of Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars - and if it does if you tap on it and select it is Mail still 'on' for it ? If it's 'off' then changing it to 'on' should get the account to show in the Mail app again.

Suddenly, I can't sign in and get my AOL email? What happened?

PowerPC G5, using Firefox

In your "More system details" you mentioned turning off Java, if you meant JavaScript you may need to turn it on so you can see your email, many sites require JavaScript. Only a few sites need a Java plug-in to perform complicated animations.
* Tools > Options > Content > (x) Enable JavaScript
If you have "Adblock Plus" try disabling, if active, or activating if disabled.
Status is changed at the "ABP" button on the toolbar. If disabling fixes problem, then you need to identify the filter line causing the problem and disable it.
If you are getting constant busy indicators replacing the favicons on the tabs, or location bar, it may be similar to a problem with Hotmail affecting Firefox and Chrome users. [/questions/905048]
Looks like you asked question again, after getting an email. Perhaps the email asked for more information which should have been provided with the original question.

WHAT HAPPENED TO DOWNLOAD PAGE?

my download page lacks all ability to manage files.
After update to 7.01 its missing!
the entire page is blank except for a blue header saying downloads.
HELP!!!!!

The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

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.
