How to i send attachments without embedding

How do I send email messages with attachments that are only attached, not embedded in the message? I saw an earlier post that suggested I check the Windows friendly preference, but I don't find this.

When you click on the attachment button (the paper clip) then there's the Windows friendly checkbox. I think it's checked by default.

How to Attach a File Without Embedding It on Mail?

How to Attach a File Without Embedding It on a Mac?
Tamer is not working and I prefer not to use TERMINAL (defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes)
Right click send as icon is not a solution.
Any other options? Thanks!

It's nothing to do with the way you send them. Every mail client chooses how to cope with attachments: in some there is a preference setting but in many cases it automatically displays embedded images. Even where there is a preference setting it's up to the person receiving the email: you can't control it. Why are they so fussed about your sending as an attachment? The image can be saved easily enough, usually by dragging it to the Desktop, or by a button to save attachments. If they really want this you are going to have to zip it, there isn't any other way round it.

How do I send attachments by email from my iPad

How do I send attachments by email from my iPad

The thing to remember is that iOS email attachments start with the document itself, not from the Mail app.
1. Select the thing you want to send in an app that handles it, (for example a Photo might be sent from Photos, a PDF from GoodReader etc.)
2. Then tap the "share" button (which I see others have kindly posted screenshots for) and create an email containing that attachment.

How can I send pictures not embedded, but as an attachment? THX

How can I send pictures not embedded, but as an attachment? THX

I had the same problem. I closed the message, tried again selecting the correct imessage contact number and it worked.
I'm guessing I first selected a non-imessage phone number and it got stuck in a gray/can't send mode (bug).

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 do I send attachments larger than 300 kB with Mail?

When I installed OS 10.2 on my 333 MHz iMac last year, I switched all my e-mail usage over from Outlook Express to Mail. However, now I can't send or forward attachments any larger than about 300 kB. I've looked in System Preferences, and in Mail's Preferences, but don't see any setting that limits the size of attachments. My ISP allows sending and receiving of attachments up to 15 MB. I can receive large attachments (e.g. photos). I never had this limitation using Outlook.
So what's the problem here? Can anyone help me?
(By the way, I've run into the same limitation when trying to send attachments or upload files using Safari, Internet Explorer and MSN Messenger.)

Today I phoned my ISP's technical support line. They were able to make some changes or adjustments on my ADSL, and now I can send larger e-mails. Seemingly, the line was too slow and Mail was timing out.
I've send a 1M attachment successfully. Will now test Safari and Messenger, to see if all's well there too.

How to include xml file without embedding in flex web application?

Hi
I have a big XML file around 11 mb. I want to include this xml in my web application without embedding.
So anyone have idea to include.
Please suggest me any idea.
Thanks

If you don't want to embed the XML file into a SWF, then the SWF can download the XML file from the server at runtime when it needs it. But there will be a delay while that happens. Maybe it would be better to put the data in the XML file into a database and then access only the parts of it that you need.

Sending .jpeg attachments without embedding the image inline

Hi,
I would like to send jpegs as an attachment, but without the image showing up within the email, just available to download.
tried composing with HTML off but it still renders the image in the email when it arrives at its destination.
many thanks.
Colin.

If you attach the image instead of insert, then it is an attachment. If the recipient is also using Thunderbird and has the option to show attachments inline turned on you have no control over that.
You cannot insert an image in a plain text message. That is why it is called Plain Text.

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 to delete eMail attachments without deleting the text

Often people reply to eMails that I have sent and the resend all the attachments. So maybe I've sent 10 photos and this is 2mb in size. They reply - often more than once - and the attachments are all there!
With Eudora, I could simply go to the Eudora Folder and delete the attachments to save HD Space (hey, 2mb a few times per day for a few years is a lot of gb!)
How to do that in Mail - but without deleting the text of the message they sent?
Thanks for any reply here--

YES!! THANKS VERY MUCH! And now there must must must be a way to alter incoming eMail text and then save that without forwarding or whatever.
By the way - I have found my Mail INBOX for my POP and also for my MobileMe accounts (as well as the other mailboxes). In my Library/Mail folder. OK so my INBOX for my POP is 800mb in size. Let's imagine that I have 8000 messages and 200 of them have attachments that are 1 to 10mb in size. If I now select all the messages in the INBOX and delete the attachments, will I see that INBOX drop substantially in size? And those attachments are "glued" to each eMail, right? I can't see them other than opening each eMail and then if I want to save the attachment(s) somewhere, doing that manually, right?
Is there a way to have all attachments automatically saved in another folder? But then they likely are not linked to an eMail - so if I then delete the attachment that is linked to the eMail, the attachment I saved to another folder is there OK- but it is no longer associated with the eMail, so I might not know to what it is related at some future time.
There were some nice advantages to Eudora-- you could quickly scan your attachments in coverflow or other mode--
Mail's way has some advantages in that you always have the attachment linked AND you can save another copy easily.
Likely best to archive each 31 Dec and then have INBOX-2009-21-31 and next year INBOX-2010-12-31 -- I did that with Eudora and have every message received and sent (most with attachments - but that's a bit tricky) - since 5 March 1996. Handy that.
OK I'm rambling a bit but let me know if I have it right here.
And thanks!

You can try these steps in case of issues with web pages:
You can reload web page(s) and bypass the cache to refresh possibly outdated or corrupted files.

"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > "Use custom settings for history" > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

How can I send attachments as an icon and not a full page pasted in my document?

I send a lot of attachments in my job and I am new to apple. 90% of the time I can not get an attachment to be the same as when I used a pc. It paste it as a full document. I have looked at help and I have been able a few times to click "view as an icon" but often that is not given to me as an option. I have checked in the send mail box 'send word friendly" but still most of the time I can not send an attachment properly. does it need to be a certian extention or what? Why? Help!!

The easiest way to do this from the Finder is simply drag the document icon onto the Mail icon in the Dock. That will open Mail with the document already attached.
If the recipient reports problems, try compressing the document first. Highlight the document and choose "Compress" from the Finder's File menu. Then drag it to Mail.
If the recipient still reports problems, you may first have to save the document in Word in a compatible format. If your PC colleagues are using an earlier version of Word you will have to use the lower common format.
