How do I open SkyDrive pics in e-mails

People send me Skydrive Pictures on e-mails.  I cannot open them.  I click on the "open slide show" and I get a message.........
"Something went wrong and we can't sign you in right now. Please try again later.
Don't have a Microsoft account? Sign up now"
I do not want Skydrive on my computer, as I do not need it...
thanks..

There is more info here that could help but it is the sender that needs to share the photos, there is not a lot that you can apart from opening a Skydrive account, no I don't have one either.

  • How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?

    How do I open a .m4a file from Mail into Music app?
    I mixed down a song from my band's latest session and saved it as a .m4a file (Apple AAC Audio format) and I e-mailed it to myself. Then on my phone I opened the e-mail message in Mail and held a long-press down on the attached .m4a file. But I do not see the option to open it up into the Music app. It only gives me the options of iMovie, WeChat, and USB Disk. Why would I want to open it up in those? It's a song. It should open up into the Music app so I can play it. What the heck?
    Please don't tell me that I have to use iTunes to do this and sync my phone to my computer, because I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library. They are *practice session tracks* that I want to listen to then delete later when we have new versions.
    If there is no way to open them into the Music app, then is there a music player app I can get somewhere that will let me simply save audio files from Mail into it, and use it as a player for those songs? That's all I want to do.
    The only reasonable workaround I have found so far is to save them as .mp4 audio files, which the iPhone thinks are movies, so it lets me save them into the camera roll as Videos.
    Voice Memos would be acceptable as a place for them to be able to open into as well, but of course that's also not on the options list. Sigh.

    Why is that such an issue for you?
    Why do people insist on replying to threads without even reading the original post? I explained it there already!
    I don't have to use iTunes to save an image from Mail into my camera roll, or to save a PDF from Mail into iBooks. Why should I have to use iTunes to save a music file into Music app?
    But I'll repeat it since evidently you can't be asked to read the original posts before spamming a thread with questions that have already been answered. I *do not* want to add these songs to my iTunes library.
    My iTunes library is a sacred temple into which I only allow to enter the very best and highest-fidelity musical recordings of all time. I refuse to sully and soil my iTunes library with crappy practice mixdowns from my band, etc.
    Want to know why? Because I like to be able to hit "shuffle all" on my iTunes library and know that something that will improve my existence will emanate forth from this amazing device that I have invested thousands of dollars into (yes, I count my cell phone plan amongst the expenses).
    I shall not have the crappy burner mixdown tracks from my band's practice sessions come up every five songs (we generate TONS of these... literally hundreds... and they are all high-bitrate .m4a tracks in the 10-15 MB range). I let iTunes keep my music folder organized on my computer. It makes copies of everything being placed into it, and I don't want 159 GB of copies of burner tracks hiding like roaches throughout my temple. We don't name these files anything sensible (in fact the guy who mixes them down intentionally gives them random weird names) and they lack metadata. So there's no easy way to delete them back out of iTunes once they're in there. It's a huge pain; I used to do it, but I swore it off years ago and *I'm never going back!*
    The REAL question is, why does Apple force me to have to use iTunes—the most convoluted, kludgy piece of bloatware ever to issue forth from Cupertino—to do something as simple as adding an MP3 from Mail into the Music app on my phone? Why can't there be something simple—something equivalent to the Camera Roll inside the Music app, not only for the files I want to save from Mail, but also for my Garage Band exports, not to mention all the exports from all the various synthesizer, drum machine, and recording apps I use on a daily basis in iOS?
    It would be awfully nice to be able to play the songs I've recorded right in the Music app without having to go through the rigamarole of adding those files to my iTunes library, tagging them with metadata, syncing, etc. etc. yadda yadda yadda—just to delete them again as soon as I've synced so they don't pollute my computer's iTunes library!
    I bought Apple for ease of use, not so I would be forced to jump through a million hoops just do to something that ought to take one tap to accomplish!  That's ridiculous!

  • How do i open winmail.dat attachments in mail

    How do i open winmail.dat attachments in mail ?

    Having problems with Winmail.dat attachments?  This is really Windows problem but their hubris will not allow them to admit it. 
    Windows does have a global fix for this problem but it is not a general patch - in their KB there is a fix for Exchange servers which cause the winmail.dat problem but most users don't know about it or have it implemented. 
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/138053http://
    Here is a solution that Apple users can get for $30.  An Austrian program and APP called Letter Opener http://www.creativeinaustria.com/http:// is the solution to seamlessly opening Winmail.dat files. 

  • How do I open draft folder of my mail?

    How do I open draft folder of my mail?

    Tap on it. The same way that you open any folder in your email account. If you are asking how to create a draft folder .... Start typing an email and then tap Cancel at the top of the email window and you will be prompted to save or delete the draft. Tap Save Draft and then the draft folder will appear.
    Now what are you really asking about? Will your draft folder not open?

  • How to disallow opening in-line attachments in Mail?

    I have received some junk mail with an in-line attachment (therefore opened) which bears no relationship to the text of the junk; for example an image which no-one would find funny, beautiful etc. Suspicious. I'm thinking of a Word macro (perhaps now protected against by the OS), an image with some buried code, etc.
    How can I instruct Mail to display attachments as a list of files which I can choose not to open?
    Thanks

    Mail>Preferences>View>uncheck Display  remote images
    If that doesn't do it for you, tale a look at the Plug-in for Mail:  Attachment Tamer

  • How do I open single-page PDFs from Mail?

    If I receive an email containing a one-page PDF, Mail shows it as an image. I want to see it as a PDF so I can open it in another app.
    Multiple-page PDFs are fine.
    This problem also exists when sending one-page PDF files from the iPad - they arrive as images.

    Single page pdf files always appear as already open in the mail app.
    I just created a single page PDF and emailed it to myself and this is what I get when I do what I suggebd that you do. This is how you do it. Why it is working for you I cannot explain.
    If you haven't done so already, the next thing that I would try is to close the mail app completely and reboot your iPad.
    Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the Mail app and then swipe "up" on the app thumbnail to close it.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • How do I open a new window in Mail with AppleScript?

    I have an AppleScript that opens Mail, but if Mail is open in the background, but no window is open, then the "activate" command simply brings the application to the front, instead of creating a new window. Is there another command that will open a window if there is no existing window?

    You could also use any one of the following six “keystroke” commands:
    tell application "Mail"
        activate
        tell application "System Events"
            keystroke "0" using {command down} --> Message Viewer ⌘0
            keystroke "1" using {command down} --> Inbox ⌘1
            keystroke "2" using {command down} --> Drafts ⌘2
            keystroke "3" using {command down} --> Sent ⌘3
            keystroke "a" using {option down, command down} --> Address Panel ⌥⌘A
            keystroke "0" using {option down, command down} --> Activity ⌥⌘0
        end tell
    end tell

  • I am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier

    i am having macbook air recently my iphotos did not open and was showing report apple and reopen but i came to know that by pressing alt and iphotos i open an new photo library and stored the pics but now how can i get the pics which i had in the earlier photo please help me to recover my photos

    Well I'll guess you're using iPhoto 11:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards

  • How can I transfer a pic from iMac to iPhone?

    How can I transfer a pic from iMac to iPhone?

    See this page:   Ways to import photos
    If you have an iCloud account, turn on My Photo Stream to make new photos appear automatically in iPhoto on your device; or turn on iCloud Photo Sharing to have your shared photo streams automatically appear in iPhoto.

    Mail you photo and save it to the camera roll from Mail.
    Sync photos and video clips using iTunes
    Connect your iOS device to your computer.Note:  If Wi-Fi syncing is on in iTunes, you don’t need to connect the device to your computer, but they both need to be on the same Wi-Fi network, and the computer needs to be on. For more information on Wi-Fi syncing with iTunes, see your device’s user guide.
    In iTunes, select your device and click Photos at the top of the window.
    Select “Sync Photos from” and select the photos you want to sync to your device.On a Mac with photos in an iPhoto or Aperture library, selecting an album or event organizes the photos as an album or event in iPhoto.

  • How do I get my pics off my phone onto my sd card

    How do I get my pics of my phone over to my sd card

    It will mostly depend on your device. You can use an App and move them, you can use the Built in File App (if your phone has it) or you can open the camera, go to Settings and Storage and select SD card. This will move your pictures to your SD card instead of Internal Storage and will put all future pics there as well.

  • How do I view my pics on photos on my iPhone 5s by title, not by date created?

    How do I view my pics on photos on my iphone by title and not by date created?
    When I uploaded my pics from "Events" in iphoto it all transfered to my iphone. The folders are in order (sorted by numbers), but the content of the folders are arranged by date created, not by title.  How do I fix this?
    Anyone knows?  Thanks much.

    You still can (kind of).
    If you open the Photos app and you are in Albums, tap Photos. In Photos, pictures are auto-grouped as Events based on location and date. If you see the location listed, that is tappable. Tap it, and that reveals the map where the photos were taken.
    The one thing I don't know is how to see all photos by location. Because the most you can zoom out by time is Years, which means you can only see all photos taken by location within a single year, but not all years. I hope there's a way that I just haven't learned yet.
