How do i attach multiple documents in email

I am new to mac and email a ton. I would like to attach documents to my emails, but have them as actual attachments and not part of the body of the email. I notice there is not an option for an attachment bar. HELP!!!

Like you, I suffered from "paperclip withdrawal symptoms" using the iPad and iPhone Mail app to email documents. As much as I love these iDevices, I'll forever hope that Apple eventually builds the handy paperclip feature into the Mail app, which we've become so accustomed to in other email systems .
That said, most third-party office productivity apps and some juiced-up email apps make it so simple to attach multiple docs to an email. On an iPad, you need at least one of them to store the documents you wish to carry around with you and/or share through email. Other than GoodReader (an excellent productivity app!), there are a lot of other well-rated apps you can choose from. I've been using "Air Sharing Pro" and "Group Email with Attachments" for almost a year now -- they're almost as second nature to me now as the paperclip.
I will soon be updating a post I wrote last year about this issue but you may still find it useful. See http://groovinonapps.com/how-to-send-multiple-attachments-on-the-iphone/. Hope this helps.

Why can't i attach multiple attachments on email using iPad

Using the iPad, in the apple mail app you can't attach documents only photos and videos, why is that? Especially trying to attach PDF files from iBooks you can't from the mail app. Even if I go to iBooks and try to attach multiple pdf's on one email I can't.
please help with this.
Thank you.

There are Apps like GoodReader which allow attaching multiple documents to emails including multiple PDFs.

How do I attach multiple files from the pages app to my email

I'm trying to attach multiple documents from the "Pages" app to my email. I'm using an ipad. It is only letting me attach one at a time and send each document as individual emails. I would like to be able to send one email with all 4 documents at the same time. Any suggestions?
Another thought- When I go to my gmail app to compose an email, I have the following to send:
to:
cc:
subject:
But there is not a paperclip to click to attach any documents either. Is this all connected and something in my ipad settings needs to be adjusted?

You can only attach one file at a time to email in the Pages app
You cannot attach files in the mail app. If you want to email a file, you do it from within the app where the file is saved such as what you did with Pages.

Hi;
I am not sure what you mean by the answering email form, can you describe a bit more what you are looking to do? Do you mean the "Email Receipt" that you can set up so the form filler receives an email after submitting their form?
Thanks,

Thanks, but I had figured this out. Let us suppose you are replying to an email from the boss who, copying 50 Polish, Indian, Arab and Thai coworkers on their personal emails-- and with whom you have never previously communicated--has asked you to share with the group your latest drafts for the upcoming weekend top secret strategy session and now you want to attach something other than a photo, such as a slide presentation in ersatz PowerPoint, a draft marketing plan in fake word and the budget in pseudo excel? You are fly fishing in the pesos without access to a computer, only your trusty IPad which fortunately has the drafts you need and a wireless connection. Because this new initiative must fly under the company radar screen due to its sensitivity, you cannot use the corporate VPN and the attach docs are too chunky to be in anything but a series of three emails as you have no compression software.
What is most efficient way to execute? If it's to drive the two hours in the storm back to Santa Fe and use the local Kinko's, I am disappointed.

How can I attach a document saved in my iCloud to a web based outlook email on my IPad?

How can I attach a document saved in my iCloud to a web based outlook email on my IPad?

Thanks Nik and Roger. I think we've all come to the same realization: the new Pages will not attach documents to e-mail without going through Cloud. If you don't want to give your files to Apple to keep in its Cloud (which I assume the NSA has access to through a back door), then you can't use the new Pages.
If, like me, you downloaded the new Pages and used it to work on a document, before realizing you couldn't attach it to e-mail, then when you saved that document it was saved in the new Pages. If you later delete the new Pages (as I did) and go back to using an older version (which you can find in your iWorks file on your hard drive), then you discover that the older version of Pages won't open a document that you worked on and saved with the new Pages.
Nik and Roger have found the solution, if you keep the new Pages. If you delete the new Pages (as I did) then I had to accept the loss of any work I did on my documents using the new Pages, and began over using the latest version of my document that I had saved with the older Pages.
All in all, this has really soured my tase for Apple. If I hadn't recently bought a new MacBook Pro, I'd be switching to a PC now. I refuse to let Apple bully me into using their Cloud.

How do I scan multiple documents to a single pdf from the ADF on my MX922?

Solved!

Hi Riceburner1,
Since you have had difficulty scanning using My Image Garden, you can scan using the IJ Scan Utility program that also comes with the printer. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. Place the documents in the ADF or on the platen glass of the printer.
2. Start the IJ Scan Utility.
For Windows 8.1:
1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key.
2. Start typing IJ SCAN UTILITY. The search window opens as you type. Once the IJ SCAN UTILITY is displayed, please select and open it, then continue with Step 3 below.
For Windows XP:
1. Go to your START MENU, then select ALL PROGRAMS, then CANON UTILITIES, then the IJ SCAN UTILITY program.
2. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears. Please continue with Step 3 below.
3. In the Canon IJ Scan Utility window that opens, click SETTINGS.... in the bottom right of the window. The Settings dialog box appears.
4. Click the DOCUMENT SCAN option on the left pane of the window. In the Select Source field of the Scan Options section, select DOCUMENT (ADF/PLATEN) to scan items placed directly on the platen glass, DOCUMENT (ADF SIMPLEX) to perform single-sided scanning from the ADF, or DOCUMENT (ADF DUPLEX) to perform double-sided scanning using the ADF. You can then set the item size, resolution, etc. in the Scan Options section as desired.
5. In the SAVE SETTINGS section of the window, you will select the save format and location of the document you are about to scan.
a.) In the FILE NAME field, specify the name you would like to give the file. By default the filename will begin with IMG; you can remove IMG and change it to whatever you would like to name the file. Please note that the filename that you give the document here will be the default filename for all items scanned until you change the file name. If you leave the file name the same in the field, the scanned item will have a sequential number appended to the end of whatever name you give it.
b.) In the DATA FORMAT field, use the drop-down arrow to select the desired option. If you are scanning a multipage document, select the PDF (Multiple Pages) option.
c.) In the SAVE IN field, please navigate to the area where you would like the file to be saved once it is scanned in. By default, the file will be saved in the MY DOCUMENTS folder.
6. In the APPLICATION SETTINGS section of the window, please select the DO NOT START ANY APPLICATION option.
7. Once all settings have been selected, click the OK button at the bottom of the SETTINGS (DOCUMENT SCAN) window. The IJ Scan Utility main screen appears.
8. Click the DOCUMENT button. Scanning starts. Click the CANCEL button to cancel scanning if needed. Once the scan is completed, scanned images are saved in the previously selected folder location specified in the SETTINGS... window.
Hope this helps!

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time?

How do you highlight multiple documents rapidly, rather than having to click on the document and on "command" one at a time? Right now, when I'm trying to highlight documents to export, I have to click on each document individually. Is there a way to highlight one document while scrolling down the list until all desired documents are highlighted? I would like to rapidly be able to do this to save time when I am exporting or saving multiple files from my documents to an external drive, CD-Rom or cloud storage.
