How can I keep attachments from embedding in emails?

When I put an 'attachment' with my email, it embeds into the email and doesn't keep it as an attachment even though this is what I asked the mail to do. The recipient of the email is unable to separate multiple attachments such as a group of photos. I use both the mail icon on my Mac Pro and also have attached it in the MSN outlook site, with the result the same for both. Any suggestions as to how to keep an attachment as an attachment? Thank you. joanfrombright's grove

... the plot thickens...
Seems you are actually troubleshooting for three! - time for all the details - as you have described the specific issue, you need to provide all the back-story
all your methods and means of attaching files -
all devices and Apps tried w/ versions - browser Mail(s)
both recipients devices, OSes, Apps, versions - is it only your emails?
domains of all - the one that has to switch "accounts" to find joy is interesting **No addresses, just domains
when did this start? what event preceded it?
screenshots from all that can muster
only certain kinds of files? what kinds?
we can't troubleshoot without knowing as much info as possible - it doesn't happen TO us, so we must use the info to search for answers
Attaching files is as old as the hills... puzzling - I lean towards between the chair and screen rather than software problems
In my email client, I can attach an image as usual OR I can paste it from the clipboard INLINE which shows it in an HTML enabled message body AND automatically attaches it as if using the Attach tool. I can right/CONTROL click the inline image to Save it OR Save with the Save tool in the Attachment pane. How are you attaching your files?

How do I prevent attachments from embedding into email messages in Lion on an Exchange Server?

I work in an Exchange Server environment, one of only two Macs in a building filled with Windows machines. When I was using Snow Leopard, I had to send attachments to my fellow workers using the same mail server via plain text messages, so that the attachments could be saved to their hard drives as separate files. If I tried to send attachments through html messages, they wouild automatically be embedded in such a way as to inhibit them from being saved to their hard drives.
Not the best solution, but it worked, unitl now.
Now that I've upgraded to Lion, the plain text work-around no longer works. As was explained to me by an IS person with more knowledge than I, that for some reason, Lion is automatically encoding attachments sent through the same mail server to users on the same Echange network as an embedded image, which can't be easily clicked on and saved as an individual file to some destination on a given computer.
I sent an attachment with Lion's mail to a PC user outside my company, and no problem. He is using Windows 7 and checked his mail remotely. In my company most people are using XP. The IS guy told me that for now, I will have to compress "zip" all of my attachments before sending until Apple solves this problem with Exchange server software.
Has anyone else experienced this problem, and if so, any other solutions? Will Apple address this problem?
Thanks,
Carl

I have heard of this situation before, but, like most Apple Mail problems, it is a problem on the recipient's side. There should be no reason that a recipient can't save an inline image from an e-mail message. For years, Apple has bent over backwards to construct messages that PC clients will be able to view. Obviously there are limits as to what they will do.
If you want to follow the standard procedure and hack up your e-mail for the benefit of others who refuse to upgrade, you can try Attachment Tamer. You could also try Microsoft Outlook. This won't change the underlying problem. It will just make it Microsoft's problem to deal with.

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions?

How can I keep lion from generating .DS_Store files on windows network partitions, but not disable it for all network partitions? I am fimilar with changing the setting for all network partitions(defaults write com.apple.desktopservices DSDontWriteNetworkStores true), but that is undesirable when I connect my laptop to my home network. A preferable solution would be where I could control the writing of these files based on disk format (NTFS vs HFS+).

Go to MacUpdate or CNET Downloads and search for ds_store. There are numerous utilities for preventing them from being transferred to Windows systems.

When using my new nano 7 with nike+, my music stops after the 30 minute voice alert even though I have set my run/workout for over 30 minutes. It also cancels/deletes that run/workout. This has happened several times. How can I keep this from happening?

If possible I would arrange for a good service center to go over it. Hopefully they have a variety of parts in stock. They can test and verify all is working. The previous attempts are based on guesses by the person at the other end of the phone without diagnostic tests to assess the culprit. It is extremely unlikely for a webcam to fail & for it & a Mic to fail together should be an indicator to a good technician it is something else. EG Motherboard

Hi,
have a look at this thread

However there's no way to avoid that people grab photos from your website. Nevertheless there are ways for making it a little more difficult.

When Mail is Open on iMac, how can I keep mail from also going to iPhone?

I spend most of the day on my iMac, with Apple Mail open. Over a few hours, I get dozens or more emails. I deal with them on my Mac as they come in or I have time. Now the same emails also show up on my iPhone and iPad. How can I keep from having the emails sent to my iPhone and iPad when I have mail open on my iMac? It used to be that when my iMac was open and mail on, I couldn't get mail on my iPhone, which is just what I wanted.
I've messed around with mail preferences, but maybe don't know what to set. (I know I can inactivate my account on the iPhone and iPad, but don't always remember to do that.)

If you can remember to do that, your problem is solved.

How can I keep Dreamweaver from re-writing my code?

How can you stabilize your code so Dreamweaver leaves it as
you wrote it? I get it right, then dreamweaver rewrites it wrong. I
fix it, then dreamweaver 'fixes' it and it's wrong again. I've done
this over and over and can't get the code I wrote to stick.

That would sure be the ticket.

How do you keep attachments from rotating when they come in on the side

You keep attachments on your email from rotating when they come in sideways

You can't of the PDF or the file was oriented that way. You can lock the screen orientation and turn the iPad the other way - landscape or portrait - but you can't change the orientation of the file in the mail app.

How can I keep iPhoto from opening?

I'm currently using iPhoto v5.0.4 and Panther 10.3.9, and am fairly new to both. My question is how can I get iPhoto to stop automatically opening and loading my photos into it when I insert my memory stick into the card reader attached to my Mac mini via USB? I want to just load the photos onto my HD, and not into iPhoto.
I've looked at the iPhoto preferences and can't find anything to turn off the automatic opening up of the application.
If I can't stop if from doing that, how can I copy the photos in iPhoto to a separate file on the HD?
Thanks,
Esther

Oh wow! Worked like a charm. I never would have figured that out. Thanks!
If you have time, could I ask you another question? If I've gotten the photos onto my HD, and decide I want to copy them into iPhoto so I'll have them in both places, how do I do that?
Thanks,
Esther

How can I extract data from embedded collection??????

I have 4 classes (class1, class2, class3, class4). Each of them contains properties, methods and a set (HashSet). The set declaration code is: private Set set1;
The initialization occurs in the appropriate method (however I did declare and initialize as private Set set1= new HashSet(); without success). Each Set is declared and initialize in their own class. The insert and update method works perfectly well.
When I load class1 object, I can see at runtime in the debug feature all properties data as well as all set elements (set1, set2, set3, and set4). I can extract the data from all properties belongs to the class1 as well as the set1 element. However I cannot extract the data from the set2, set 3 and set4. By writing the following �String s = class1.set1(). Property name;� and I will get the information. The problem that I have is that I cannot write the following �String s= class1.set1().set2().property name;� since set2 cannot be seen. What should I do to get the info from the other set collection???? The loading method provide an object that contains everything. This object is equal as class1 and the set are embedded one inside the other.
Used hibernate and Struts.
Could someone help???? Many thanks
