How do I launch an attachment from my email?

I am trying to open a pdf attachment. It used to go to my download file. Now it goes into email heaven. Is there a setting I need to fix?

Wirth an iOS device you have to first go to the app that has the item you want to attach. When in that app you then select the email option for sharing. You can't start from the Mail app.

How can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?

Hi all, how can I delete an attachment from a received email but save the message?*

Over the years this issue crops up again and again. Here are the cases I know about:
Case 1 - it simply doesn't work
I have a message in my inbox with a jpeg of about 300Mb. Select message, choose option "remove attachment" which is not greyed out, and it does not work.
Case 2 - it works if you save the message first
I move the message from the inbox to a mail box. Open the mailbox (select), select the message, choose option "remove attachment", result: the attachment is removed, a small text file is added and an error appears in the message "missing plug-in". The message size is reduced from 300Mb to a few bytes.
Case 3 - the option "remove attachment" is greyed out.
I've googled this at least 10 times and read all the advice about editing various files from the library and all the other hacks. The simple truth here is that the user should not be inconvenienced by such inappropriate behaviour. We're not used to this from Apple any more, not since OS X. Even Windows does this stuff painlessly. In fact this kind of function is something that Outlook and Exchange do incredibly well. If they didn't the corporate world would have ground to a halt.
My point: the remove attachment option should work all the time and should be redesigned. Right-click + save as + delete in the message would be a hundred times easier.

How do I close an attachment in an email on my iPad?

I tried everything in this thread to no avail. The "Done" button would not appear. This is how I had success: From Home, I swiped the screen to the right to the search screen and searched for "Mail." The "Mail" icon was in the list of items. When I tapped on the mailbox, the attachment showed up again. However, emails in the "mail" also showed up. I tapped on the most recent one and was back into all of my emails. The attachment was circumvented.

Attachment from an email

Hi All,
I just want to ask how to view an attachment from an email using ipod touch? Thanks in advance.
Regards,
TOpher

Fromt he Users Guide:
Viewing Attachments
iPod touch displays image attachments in many commonly used formats (JPEG, GIF,
and TIFF) inline with the text in email messages. iPod touch can play many types of
audio attachments, such as MP3, AAC, WAV, and AIFF. You can download and view files
(such as PDF, webpage, text, Pages, Keynote, Numbers, and Microsoft Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint documents) that are attached to messages you receive.
View an attached file: Tap the attachment to open it in Quick Look.
You may need to download the attachment first by tapping (if it appears at the end
of the message in a dotted box with the document name).
Tap attachment
to download
You can view attachments in portrait or landscape orientation.
If the format of an attached file isn’t supported by iPod touch, you can see the name of
the file but you can’t open it. iPod touch supports the following document types:
.doc Microsoft Word
.docx Microsoft Word (XML)
.htm webpage
.html webpage
.key Keynote
.numbers Numbers
.pages Pages
.pdf Preview, Adobe Acrobat
.ppt Microsoft PowerPoint
.pptx Microsoft PowerPoint (XML)
.rtf Rich Text Format
.txt text
.vcf contact information
.xls Microsoft Excel
.xlsx Microsoft Excel (XML)
Open an attached file with another app: Touch and hold the attachment, then
choose an app. If no apps are available, you can choose to open the attachment in
Quick Look.
Save an attached photo to your Saved Photos album: Tap the photo, then tap Save
Image. If the photo hasn’t been downloaded yet, tap the download notice first.
Save an attached video to your Saved Photos album: Touch and hold the
attachment, then tap Save Video. If the video hasn’t been downloaded yet, tap the
download notice first.

Please can someone tell me how to save a MP3 file from my email on my iPad so I can put in on Facebook? Thankyou

Please can someone tell me how to save a MP3 file from my email on my iPad so I can put it on Faceboo? I use hotmail and please tell me step by step as I am not a tech guru lol. Thankyou

Hi jscher200,
Thank you for your reply, sorry for the VERY late late response, but I have just figured out how to control this separate 'panel'. I find it really useful for monitoring Google Analytics in as it can just sit there running. It does have its limitations, as it's a limited size (you can't expand it to full screen view), so you can only ever see a vertical section of a website and need to scroll to look to the right or left, but I have the live view of people accessing my website running on there and if the numbers start racking up at any time, I can scroll to look and see what pages they are accessing, where they've been referred from, etc.
To get it to work, you save a website address in the Bookmarks Toolbar and when you can see it sitting on the toolbar at the top of the screen with its little icon, right click on it then click 'properties', then tick the box 'Load this bookmark in the sidebar'. The next time you click on this bookmark to open the website, it will load in this sidebar, which looks like a separate 'window' but is immovable. You can only have one sidebar application running at a time, but can change it by right clicking on the bookmark you want to load in there and it will then change to that one next time you click on that bookmark.
I hope this might be useful to others, as I asked for help with this on loads of forums and not one person knew that this existed - even really skilled techies!

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.

You can attach some items in an email by tapping where you want to insert the item. A choice to attach a photo will come up along with Select, Cut, Paste, etc.
Other items like PDFs or other documents can be attached by using the app that the document was created or edited with and using the share feature. The Share icon is a square with up pointing arrow.
