How to disable sender images in Gmail app?

Hi all,
The recent update made a change in the Gmail app where it'll display an image for the sender in the main window. If you don't have an image for the sender (which is 100% the case for me), it displays the first letter of the sender's name in a big colored box.
A quick Google search shows there's a way of disabling this through the settings: http://www.androidcentral.com/how-turn-and-contact-images-new-gmail
However, the Gmail app on my Verizon Galaxy S3 doesn't have the "three dots" icon which opens the menu. Was this something Verizon removed for some reason? Any hints on how to turn off the big colored boxes? I find them annoying and they take up space for no reason.
Thanks, Rich

The three dots is the overflow menu. The Galaxy S3 has a menu button. Overflow menu (three dots) equals menu button. >Comment deleted<

  • How to disable message images in Mail app for all but contacts?

    I use the Mail app for OS X Mavericks and have been inundated with spam lately. I understand that spam email campaigns can confirm that you have opened their mail (and subsequently continue to send you mail) by image tracking so I would like to disable images from showing for all except my contacts. I don't recall if it was with Mail or another email client I previously used, but I vaguely remember message images not showing by default and requiring you to click a button at the top of the message in order to show the images within it. If possible, I would like to be able to do this for non-contacts.
    So my question is: how can I disable images from showing, by default, in messages from non-contacts within the Mail app?
    If there is no way to do this, can someone suggest an alternative email client for Mac OS that does allow this? I am willing to change if this feature does not exist within the Mail app.
    Thanks for your time.

    Personally, I've never heard of spammers tracking by a contact's image. I think you might be confusing this with the images in the message.
    Spammers can do two things to track you.
    1) Send an email with a read receipt. Mail doesn't support read receipts
    2) Send an email with an embedded image (sometimes called a bug or beacon). When the email is opened, the email software loads the image from the remote server by sending it an HTTP request.
    If a message matches the junk mail criteria, then a bar will appear near the top of the message. External images in the message will automatically be disabled, so that spam authors won’t be able to track if you’ve opened the message. To load the images, click the “Load Images” button in the bar, or to mark the message as not junk, select “Not Junk.”
    Mail > Preferences > Viewing >Uncheck Display remote images in HTML messages.
    Enable Junk filtering in Mail Preferences. Check "sender in in contacts, sender in in previous recipients**, message is addressed using full name.
    Use SpamSieve, third party product to filter spam, http://c-command.com/spamsieve/
    Keep contacts in your Address Book.
    Mark messages as junk to help train the junk filter.
    Don't open a message you think is spam. You should be able to see enough of a message in the preview to know if it's spam.
    ** Open Previous Recipients under Window in the Menu bar. Remove any addresses from spammers.

  • How do I remove images from Notes app?

    How do I remove images from Notes app?
    I sometimes find that, when cutting and pasting text from the web, an image is also copied (pretty much at all times I try and avoid this, but sometimes the selection process doesn't allow for fine enough control - e.g. a whole block of content may be selected, rather than just the few words I'm trying to copy).
    I then find, once it's part of my note, that I cannot select the unwanted image and remove it. Can anyone tell me if this is something that can be done, and if so... how?
    Thanks, Sebastain

    Hi Drew & Kilgore*
    Thanks for your replies. I also have and use Simplenote, although I went off it for a while, when it started crashing all the time on me. It seems to be more stable again now, so I'll start using it more regularly again, perhaps.
    I am, obviously, disappointed that one can't simply select ANY object within a Notes document and choose to delete it. As I rather suspected, the only solution is an annoying workaround. Apple stuff seems to get more like this as time goes by. At least in my experience.
    I solved the issue my own way in the end, but I guess it was close to your 1st idea DR, and your 2nd option, KT: I basically cut and pasted everything above, and then everything below, the image, and pasted both chunks of text into a new note. So it took two passes, and left me with the original note just displaying the image, which I then trashed.
    Tapping to the right of the image followed by deletion was what I hoped & expected would work. But instead the image stayed put and the text below the cursor would simply slide along the right hand side, moving upwards as I deleted! Most bizarre, to my mind at least.
    Anyway thanks for the feedback. But, for anyone else that might want to know how to do this, the answer is: NO, you can't select and delete an image once it's in one of your notes!

  • How do I send video (via gmail) from my iphone?  my laptop does it easily

    I receive video & pics from my friend's attphone (they don't have an iphone) - through my gmail on my iphone.
    I want to respond with a video, but don't know how.
    How do I send (from my gmail on my iphone) a video attachment to my friend?
    I can send them text & pics, no problem - but I'd like to send video clips that I have on my iphone as well.
    I can send video clips from the same gmail account on my computer. How do I do it on my iphone? Is the imap/smtp thing set up wrong? I have outgoing imap and incoming smtp. Is that wrong?
    Thanks for your help

    oh, thanks - that's really sad.
    You'd think they'd have the technology to make that possible.
    I wonder why they don't allow us to work with video.

    Okay I am stumped! For the life of me, I can't figure out how to save attachments that come through my gmail app. Specifically 3gp videos and documents files.

  • How to get Read receipt in gmail app on iphone 4s?

    I have gmail app on my iphone 4s but i do not get read receipt option while sending mail kindly advise

    You can use 3rd party services to use read receipts with Gmail. Companies like ContactMonkey (www.contactmonkey.com) and Spypig offer email tracking for Gmail and Outlook. They're both pretty easy to use.
    Happy tracking!

  • How to disable/enable image property in Web Dynpro?

    Hi,
    I was trying to find a help about "How to disable/enable property of an image in Web Dynpro?" but never find it. Let me explain what I'm trying to do:
    I need to show three different status (Released, Rejected and Approved) each one is an image ... <b>How do I do to disable images property before a process and enable them after it?</b>
    Thanks in Advance, and waiting an answer As Soon As Possible !!!
    Tokio

    Your question is not completely clear to me. An image cannot trigger an event, so disabling it has no effect.
    To display different images in a Image element depending on some condition, you can use a calculated context attribute <i>imageSource </i>of type "string" that returns the URL of the image, something like
    public String getImageSource(IWDNodeElement element)
      if (...)
        return "image_for_status1";
      else if (...)
        return "image_for_status2";
      else if (...)
        return "image_for_status3";
      return ""; /* no image will appear */
    Bind property Image.<i>source </i>to attribute <i>imageSource</i>.
    If you put the three image files inside folder src/mimes/components/<componentName>, your method can simply return the file name without calculating an URL.

  • UC320 - how to disable send ext. as Clid

    Hi,
    I hope, someone can help me:
    I have installed a UC320w, use 1 Sip-Client and calling in and out is no problem, but I cannot manage to disable, that outgoing calls send the CLID Extension with them;
    I have tried to manage it with the inbound rules, but even if I disable the checkbox (use 12345601 as calling line id) the extension is sent.
    Any idea, how to disable this?
    thanks.

    Hi Mario,
    we don't have a phone setting to block it. One  workaround would be to have your incoming trunk (FXO or SIP) configured by your provider not to deliver caller ID.However using star code,  outgoing clid was able to block succesfully.
    Please try the following steps.
    From SPA phone go off hook and enter *81.  You should hear confirmation tone.
    Then dial 8 or 9 to select your trunk and enter the called party number.
    Thanks,
    Nima

  • How to disable send or collect signatures?

    I am using the Customization Wizard XI to customize our Adobe Reader package.  Under the "Fill & Sign" options, we want "Fill & Sign Tools" enabled, but "Send or Collect Signatures" disabled.  These options are linked together through the online services even though the Fill & Sign Tools aren't powered through EchoSign.
    Is there any way to disable "Send or Collect Signatures" but keeping "Fill & Sign Tools"?  The only way I have found is to disable Online Services, but this also disables the the "Fill & Sign Tools"?  We also like to remove "Get Documents Signed" on the welcome screen, but I can get around that by removing it altogether if need be.
    This issue is referenced here, but not answered. Disabling "Adobe Online Services" on Reader XI no longer removes them from the welcome screen

  • How do I send images in an email, but not embedded in the message body?

    I want to submit some jpg images of artwork to a competition and the rules state that attached images must *not* be embedded in the email body. They want the list where you can see the file name and you click on it to open it, as I've seen in Windows MS Outlook. I've searched the net and I see that this is a problem for other people, but I've not seen a solution.
    I'm using the current version of iMail, and I've tried setting the message to Plain Text, the "Windows Friendly" setting, as well as the "Always attach at end of message" setting. All leave the image embedded. I'm using the current version of iMail. Anyone know how to do this? I have a deadline approacing so time is of the essence. Thanks!!

    I agree that it's a shame to have to buy something that I feel Mail should already do. That said, it seems that people's experience with sending attachments using Mail seems varies - I believe it's often to do with how the recipients email client is configured.
    All I know is that since installing Attachment Tamer (used to be called Mail Attachments Iconizer) a few years ago it's something I no longer have to bother about.
    I think you can run AT in demo mode to test flight it, before committing to buy.

  • How do I send images in-line in text eMails?

    Using TB 24.6.0 and sending eMails in text format (not HTML) I am unable to add images (J-pegs) in-line. How do I overcome this problem or it is not actually possible in TB?
    Many thanks

    Turnpike was a world leader developed in the 1990s and taken over by Demon. Unfortunately Demon managed to loose their programming expertise with the result that they were unable to develop it to keep up with more recent developments. They pulled the plug in the spring of 2013.
    See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turnpike_(software) .
    Most Turnpike users have been unable to find anything that approaches it for either efficiency or intuitive use.
    Demon recommended TB and Microsoft. Guess I will have to try sending as HTML but many of my customers are strictly plain text only with HTML filtered out - It's a security thing.
    We shall see.

  • How to disable sending email to manager while deletion of my site in SharePoint 2013?

    I believe there is a cleaning job is for disabled and employee who are left i want to disable the alert which is sending to their manager for the deletion of the site that site will be deleted in 3 days. How can we disable this email alert.

    The job you are looking for is called the MySite Cleanup Job.  It is a timer job, so you can disable the whole thing.  But that would disable processing of MySites for deleted users entirely, not just the email alert.  Unfortunately, there
    is no way to disable just the alert.  So you either need to disable the whole timer job or let the alert be sent.
    Also, just to clarify.  By default the timer job deletes mysites after 14 days (not 3) and only does this for users missing from a profile import ( which is normally only users deleted from AD not user disabled in AD).  You can filter out disabled
    users also, but it requires adding a filter to the profile import connection.
