EMAIL-CAN NOT TYPE IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL

I can not type on the body of my email through comcast SmartZone. I am using Internet Explorer 9 and from my comcast home page when I access my email and try and compose an email or reply there is no where to type the body of the email. When I go to the Comcast help page where it has Comcast Customer Central it looks distorted like you are looking at with double vision. When I am trying to compose an email it has everything except the body to type on, it is all gray in that area and then at the bottom of the page it has the reply etc just like at the top of the page. Also when I am on my smartzone at home versus at work it looks different. Like on my email at home the first button is refresh and here at work it is new?? I have contacted Comcast and they were able to login to my email and had not problems. So I do think it is a setting but I do not know where to even start. Please help,

It could be a compatability issue between IE9 and the Comcast
email website. Try it in compatibility view in the IE9 browser.
You might also want to use or create another email account
using another service like gmail as a test to see what happens.

Can not type in the body of email program & reply button does not work.

I installed 10.4 (Family Pack) on my G4 400 and after a few days the email program does not work as it originally did. The reply button no longer works. (It did for a few days.) Additionally on a new mail or mail forward. I can not type in the body of the email after the first word. It just beebs at me. (It did work as normal for a few days.) I can still receive and can send mail. I have also installed this Family pack on my iMac flat panel G4 and have no mail problems. That mac is about 200 mile from this location. Before I installed 10.4 I was using 10.3.9 and mail was ok. I use high speed internet with the iMac and use dialup with the G4.

I've lost track of what computer you have where, and I don't understand why you keep installing buggy OS X 10.4.0 on systems that worked fine under OS X 10.3.9, without being able to update to install system updates afterwards.
That said, you may want to look at this web site for general Mac OS X troubleshooting tips:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
In particular, since I know of other people with the same problem as you that fixed it deleting caches, you may want lo look these two pages:
Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
Side effects of System cache cleaning
In addition to some utilities mentioned there for cache cleaning, you may also consider OnyX, if for no other reason, because it's free:
http://www.titanium.free.fr/
Although utilities such as OnyX allow you to clean many caches with just a click of the mouse, I'd recommend to be as selective as possible and clean them up one at a time, to try to identify which exactly is causing your problems, if any. This information, in turn, could be useful for other users. I'm pretty sure some Mail problems are related to cache issues, but I don't yet know which cache exactly is the culprit here (since it was not the Mail cache, I would say that the fonts cache should be next in the list).

When using mail, I can fill in the address and subject line but cannot get to the body of the email to type.

When using my regular mail, I can hit reply or start a new email and can fill in the address line and the subject line. I cannot get to the body of the email to type my message. The curser will not go there and the keyboard does not pop up. How can I correct this so I can send emails when travelling?
Thank you

Oh, ok. That changes my answer completely. The problem here is that Shawmail's webmail interface isn't made to work correctly with the iPad. Gmail works because Google made sure it works. You need to contact Shaw and ask them to correct this. In the meantime, set up your Shawmail account in the native Mail app on the iPad. Do this by going to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars and take it from there.

How can I email a photo as an attachment only and not as a photo in the body of the email?in the message

How can I send a photo as an attachment only and not in the body of the email?

Just drop it into the message. It goes as an attachment. Or select the image, CTRL- or RIGHT-click and select Compress .... from the context menu. Then attach the archive.

Reset your phone by holding down the home button with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go. Try it again.

How do I add an attachment to an email and not have it show up in the body of the email?

How do I add an attachment to an email and not have it show up in the body of the email?

You can right click or command-click on the image in the email and select "view as icon".
You can change the default behavior of Mail.app so that it always shows the attachment as the icon:
open a Terminal window (Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
at the prompt, type in this (it must be exact, or copy and paste it in if you have trouble typing things precisely):
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Then hit return.
To revert to the previous default (where the attachment is visible in-line), you just enter the same command with "no" instead of "yes" at the end.
In either case, however, how the viewer of the email sees the attachment (either as an icon or in-line) depends on how their email client is set up, not on how you send it.

Lately, I'm unable to paste any image into the body of any email I compose. I did not have this issue before today. Please help.

Could this issue with not being able to copy and paste any image within the email body, be virus or malware related?
Though I don't think I have any virus problems. Also I have all the latest updates for Thunderbird.
I read some suggestions posted elsewhere and tried those but none of these worked :
DID NOT WORK #1 :
(If your Thunderbird email message is displaying strange-looking code (tags) after each link, images are missing (it looks like images have been stripped out), and the font appears different, or bold, then you’ve most likely changed the message body view inadvertently. To switch it back, simply:
Browse to View -> Message Body As -> and select Original HTML.)
DID NOT WORK #2 :
Email message looks fine, but doesn’t contain images
If the rest of your Thunderbird email message looks okay, but is missing images, or they appear to have been stripped out, it’s very possible that you’ve changed a setting that won’t let attachments (ie. pictures) appear inline (within the message body). To change this back, simply:
Browse to View -> and select Display Attachments Inline. )
DID NOT WORK #3 :
If you made the above changes to your Thunderbird settings and images still aren’t appearing in some of your messages, it may be that Thunderbird is blocking them because it thinks they are spam. To adjust your privacy settings and prevent the images from being stripped out, or not displaying at all (ie. being blocked), simply:
Click on the button to the above right of the email message asking you whether you would like to load images.
If the email message is from a trusted sender, you can click the link above the message specifying you would always like to load images in messages from this particular sender.
DID NOT WORK #4 :
If you’re still having troubles, or your changes aren’t being saved (ie. next time you open Thunderbird the images won’t display again) you can directly specify the default format Thunderbird should display email messages as in the config editor. To access it, simply:
Browse to Tools -> Options -> Advanced tab -> Config Editor
Search for mail.default_html_action and make sure it is set to 3 (allow original HTML). If you would like messages to open as text only (more secure, but you won’t see images, change the setting to 1).
Could you please suggest what possibly has caused this issue? Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your response.
After searching around for any pointers to my problem, the above fixes I listed were the things that came closest to maybe addressing the issue, that I was able to locate. But since none worked, and as you pointed out, it is now clear they will only help towards viewing sent images rather than helping with inserting any images in the body of the email, which is the problem I suddenly started facing today.
Coming to your suggestion, on opening the Write window, the Insert choice on the menu bar is indeed available. And I had already tried using that, by clicking on the '''Insert ----> Image''' option listed. That opens
up the "Image Properties" box but using that has not resolved the matter either. It results in an image box getting inserted within the email but without the actual image itself.
Plus, normally I am able to use the '''Paste''' function in the Edit menu or through right-click, but today the (Cut/Copy/Paste) functions have gone inactive, thereby disallowing me to use that to place an image within the email.

How do I paste a photo ( jpeg) into the body of my email message- I can do it in Internet Explorer bu can't in Firefox

I can open up a photo from my "Pictures" file In Internet Explorer, copy it, then paste it into the body of my email message ( I use Earthlink webmail). I see the picture fine.
When I try to do the same procedure by opening, copy and pasting in Firefox, a box appears with a photo icon, but no photo. Even when I press "view image" it will not show the picture.
What am I missing?

There's a utility available that solves this problem in gmail. It allows you to drag and drop any image on your system clipboard directly into Gmail. Check it out: picturepaste.com

Can I have both static text and the output of an array in the body of an email?

I have been scouring forums for something on this for a while now and have not found a whole lot. I'm trying to send a group of emails out to server owners in our company for a cleanup/consolidation project. I have a working script and of course now my boss
wants it changed. I have the script set up to find all the servers a person owns and put it into a CSV file. Then it attaches it to an email with instructions on how to get everything updated. Now my boss does not want the list in an attachment but right in
the body of the email. I'm pretty sure this is something Powershell can do, but I'm clueless on where to begin let alone how that would work.
Here is my current script minus the confidential stuff :) I just need to know where to start since it can't be in html format. I'd probably know if I knew powershell a little better, but well I've only been working with it for a few months now.

#stores the body of the email into a variable

#sends the email with attachement for the current owner
Send-MailMessage -To "$EmailAddress" -Subject $subject -Body $message -SmtpServer "<smtp.domain.com>" -From $emailFrom -Attachments $newfile -DeliveryNotificationOption OnSuccess

So I can just put my output variable into the email body variable.... since it's a table with headers should I do anything special for formatting the table?
My output now looks like :
ServerName
Owner
SupportContact
SupportExternal
ServerDescription
Server1
Me
Me
TrendMicro OfficeScan 10.5
Server2
Me
Me
TrendMicro Deep Security Test
Server3
Me
Me
Test Server
Server4
Me
Me
Application Server
Well it's a little garbled there but you get the idea

Can anyone tell me how to send a PDF file so that it opens up in the body of the email itself? Thanks

Can anyone tell me how to send a PDF file so that it opens up in the body of the email itself? Thanks

That is a function of the recipient's e-mail software understanding what your software sent. If it doesn't it will always show as an icon or attachment. It is also a function of both your internet provider and their internet provider accepting messages of that size, and a function of their download attachment settings in their e-mail program. There is no way to guarantee it will appear inline in the attachment. The best you can do is attach with Windows Friendly format. To do that, use the attach toolbar icon that looks like a paperclip, (View menu -> Customize toolbar if invisible) on Mac OS X Mail when composing the message. A checkbox appears in the file dialog box's bottom to make it Windows friendly when you navigate to pick the PDF file. That makes it as universally compatible as possible. It still may not appear inline, but at least you are less likely to be incompatible.

How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

How can I embed a pdf file into the body of an email?

The problem is defining what it even means to “embed” a PDF file in the body of an e-mail, especially if you are dealing with a multiple page PDF file.
E-mail is either pure text, rich text (something akin to RTF in Word), or HTML. PDF is not compatible with any of these. Thus, to embed a PDF file, something has to be converted and that means the PDF would be converted to a less graphically rich raster format. But is that what you would really want?
I think that the MacOS and iOS e-mail clients do under some circumstances place an attached PDF file within HTML segments and by clicking on same, you get the equivalent of extracting the full PDF file, but I have no real experience with that.
Another alternative is HTML with a proxy image with a hyperlink to an external PDF file that is invoked when you click on the hyperlink.
Perhaps you can explain what you are really trying to accomplish and what the recipient of such an e-mail's actual experience would be?

I can't click on emails addresses in the body of an email

On my Blackberry, if someone sent me an email with another persons email address in the body of the email i would place my cursor on it and click and the phone would crete a new email with that address in the To: section.
I am unable to click on email addresses in the body of my emails on my iPhone.
Is there a setting i can adjust to make this happen?

Well..i think i figured it out.
The emails i send from ENTOURAGE with email addresses in the body will not allow me to click on them from my iPhone.
I just tried sending myself an email through GMAIL with an email address in the body and I was able to click on the address from my iPhone
It must be some setting in ENTOURAGE
If anyone knows how to solve that I welcome the advice!
Thanks to everyone who replied.

Why can't I see the body of my emails--new or old?

My emails are coming through, but today, all of a sudden, I can't read any of them. When I open mail all I get is the From & To Line showing. The body of the email is blank--even old emails that I have read and saved are not showing the body of the mail.

In another message FirstTry suggested this:
Double click your home button. You'll see the mail button at the bottom. Hold it down until you see the " - " on the upper left corner of the button. Hit the " - ". Return to your home page. The problem is solved.

Can I copy a spreadsheet from Numbers into the body of an email message?

I created a basic calendar originally in Excel and have moved to Numbers. When I copy the Numbers spreadsheet calendar to the body of an email message, it loses all borders and formats and looks like a word salad. I need to paste it into the email message because my recipients are unable to open an attachment. Please help me find a solution. I am a new MAC user.

You can't change the behavior of copy/paste when the destination is unaware of the Numbers specs.
I know that the mail.app available under Mac Os X 10.5 is able to do some kinds of formatting but
(a) I don't know which
(b) I don't know how they are reflected if the target program is not the same mail.app.
