HT1430 Disappearing iOS mail signature images

Suddenly, over the last 3 or 4 days, my iPhone and iPad signature is missing the image. 
I keep deleting the old signature and try to re-paste it, and it shows up for a short time, then disappears.  My text still show up, but the image keep disappearing.
It's always worked fine before, but now I can't figure out what the problem is.  Any ideas?

After much time messing around with this I figured out the issue.  It is the way WinDoze (Outlook) formats the HTML E-Mail signature!
I tried publishing an HTML through many ways and it always lost the pictures and sometimes even the formatting.  I knew I needed to get it into an Apple compatible format but could not figure out how, copying it just copies the text and leaves out the pictures so here is what I did!
1. Copy the entire signature from an existing E-Mail.  (or create your own)
2. Paste it into TextEdit.
3. Save it as a RichText document.
4. Open the document and select the entire signature.
5. Open Mail and paste the signature into a new E-Mail.
6. Send it to yourself.
7. Open that Email on your iPhone. (or iPad) {I have not tried it on an iPad but I assume it will work the same}
8. Click on your signature and "Select All".
9. Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calenders>Signature.
10. Click on the account you want to use or use all accounts.
11. Paste the text into the box.
12. Shake your iPhone and click on "Undo Change Attributes". <--VERY important! (It updates the formatting when pasting)
13. Send an E-Mail and check out your awesome new signature!

  • Mail Signature: image size keeps changing to fit window

    When adding a logo image to a signature in mail, the image is not remaining the same size, it changes in size semingly to fit the width of the window that the email happens to be in. Mostly the image is showing larger than the window itself. We are having this problem on imac (snow leopard) and brand new macbook pro (mountain lion). I have tried using PNG and JPEG files but both have the same problem. Older signatures (2 years old) show the image correctly keeping it the same size. Any advice muchly appreciated : )

    I worked it out in the end - I had 2 things too big in my image settings; the canvas size (which was 14cm long!) and he DPI (which was 300dpi) I have since changed to approx 8cm long and 100DPI and it now displays the logo in the signature without increasing the size of it to fit the size of the window. My only issue now is trying to get the image to still show in the reply thread, so that when you look down the email conversation you can see the logo in each of the previous email signatures. This one is stumping me!

  • How do I get Apple to pay attention to IOS Mail Signature Issues?!!!!!

    IOS Signature.....
    OK, so I know this has been answered a number of times before and I have posted this at the request of senior advisors at Apple Customer Service who are also fed up with people complaining about the lack of basic functionality with IOS Signatures.
    So the issue for me is that, with IOS8 Apple introduced continuity. I can sit on my MacBook Air in the lounge, my phone on charge in another room, and genius, I can take a phone call right from my Mac. Perhaps the cynic in me thinks this was designed for the American market and those too bone idol to get of their fat A***'s and answer their phone (Hey every calorie counts after all). But what I continue to fail to get is why I can have a beautiful, Professional signature on my MacBook Air. I have a JPEG of my signature, my details, Facebook and linked in Logo's. It looks very good and often people ask me how I did that!!! But when I am out and i want to send an e-mail from my iPad Mini w Retina or iPhone 5s. Apple think that I don't need that professional signature and that basic text will do! Apple, it won't, its a basic function and you need to do something about it!!!
    This has been a common complaint and oversight from Apple since the original iPhone.
    I have to wait to get home to send a business e-mail from my Mac using the signature. I can cut an paste the signature from an e-mail, it works for 1 or 2 e-mails and then reverts to replacing the images with little grey boxes. I have tried all the workarounds, spend hours, probably days trying to do this and the same result overtime. Clearly Mail can send jpeg, gif, bmp etc.... just not as a signature through the settings menu. This must be a simple fix!!!
    I have come to the conclusion that:
    1/. Tim Cook and the executives at Apple do not use iPads for business use, or this would have irritated them and it would have been resolved. Surely while they are jetting around the world promoting the generally useless Apple Watch they would have noticed this problem?!
    2/. Or Tim Cook and his gang do not use iPads!!!!!!
    So Apple, please, Please, PLEASE fix some of these basics... PDF management in IOS, iCloud management on IOS and let us have more than simple text signatures in Mail in IOS. Its a basic, necessary business function!!!!!!!
    These little things have stopped me upgrading the iPad and iPhone and like others I know who were Apple loyalists and promoted the virtues of Apple products, we now consider other options, with basic functionality. Stop chasing the next major release and give us the basic functionality.
    Please if you know a way of doing this that works time and time again that doesn't mean opening an old e-mail and pasting every time I send an e-mail, let me know...

  • Mail signature image not appearing on PC

    Hi.
    I've been struggling getting my signature logo, sent from Apple mail, to appear to PC users in the message. It works fine with mac users as far as I know, but not for PC users.
    What am I doing wrong? Its a image file, but only appears as an attachment when received by PC users.
    Can anyone help me regarding this?
    Thanks

    My only suggestion would be to use Safari's File > Mail Contents of This Page. Obviously you'd need to first create an HTML page that is accessible via the internet which would contain your pre-fabricated signature line. Here is a sample:
    http://www.progravix.com/emailsample/
    Then you'd choose "Mail Contents of This Page" in Safari, and it will create an HTML email with that same signature line intact. What is cool about this is that the images within the email are not part of the actual email (attachments) rather being pulled from their remote location. This will only work if the recipient chooses to receive HTML email (but that would be the case regardless of how the email was composed, or by what client.

  • Mac Mail Signature Image Resolution-HELP!

    I have a shiny new retina MBP...I created a signature for Mac Mail that looks crisp...until I created my first email.  The image in the signature is now grainy!  I read that Mac Mail doesn't play well with 300 dpi images.  So, I have reduced it to 100 dpi and then 72...I have also used jpg, png, and tif files.  All result in this grainy look. 
    Has anyone found a solution to get an image be retina compatible in the signature?
    Thanks!

    Definitely is your problem.
    The image will not show up on anyone else's computer, but your own if it is fetched locally.
    You should be able to paste the the image address in the browser and the image should render independent of Mail. 
    That is the nature of html mail,  it reaches out to fetch the images in the mark-up.
    addendum:  if you do not have active server space available to host your image,  there are many alternatives. Dropbox public file is one example. The public link can be copied and pasted into the html .mailsignature

  • Mac Mail Signature Image NOT showing up on recipient end

    I am boggled, please help.
    It's kind of a long story/process but I will try to sum up.
    Basically, I needed to create an email signature for a client.
    Their logo needed to be on the left side.
    And their company information needed to be on the right side of the logo and centered.
    Mac Mail ONLY lets me create the logo on top of the company information.
    SO, I created it in Microsoft word.
    Did some tests on the layout and finally was able to copy and paste from Word to my signature window in Mac Mail.
    Voila! All looks grand.
    When I create a new message and choose my new email signature, I CAN SEE THE IMAGE AND TYPE PERFECT.
    When I do a test and send it to myself, the ONLY thing wrong is that the IMAGE IS NO LONGER THERE. ONLY AN OUTLINE OF WHERE IT SHOULD BE.
    HOWEVER! When I forward the email, IT'S THERE!
    What the heck?!
    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

    I tested my icon with preview initially.
    I saved the logo as a .png format.
    Opened it preview.
    Selected all, copied and pasted into my signature.
    Although it shows up, it's way bigger.
    Which I think is fine because I can adjust it, however, then I have to add the company address NEXT to the logo.
    And MacMail does not allow this.
    As soon as I begin typing, it just won't appear NEXT to the logo and centered, where I need it to be.
    That's what had led me to creating it in word.
    hmm

  • IOS Mail Signature color

    Dear users and moderator.
    The question I have about signature for Mail program. Before upgrade to iOS8. I still can copy my company signature with color to Mail preference setting. So I can send my company email with designed signature. However, later iOS8 doesn't support this anymore. I would like it back and more flexible. So, when I using my brilliant iPhone still can professionally send emails with my business signature.
    Does anyone has same requirement like me?

    Try this.  It works for me...

  • Mail Signatures image resize

    Howdy, tried to add a line of text to my existing logo and suddenly the logo image defaulted to half size!!  I cannot enlarge the image once it is in the window.  I deleted the Signature, tried to add again, even without text and as soon as I leave the current window it resizes automatically.  It is not even legible.  I went to reply to an email and add the signature but it is still in the default "small" capacity.
    Should never have changed something that worked!!
    any suggestions??

  • IOS 7 How to change Mail signature to different font/etc?

    At one point in time, I had a custom email signature in iOS which featured a different font, size and color - no images or HTML.  I had added this by sending the text to be used in an email and simply went into the settings in iOS/Mail and pasted it into the signature field.  This worked. It absolutely did. In all new emails, I had this really nice looking Helvetica Neue looking signature.
    At some point, I went in to edit this nice signature a bit and lost this capability completely.  I've just wasted an entire afternoon attempting to do the same and research how/why this is no longer working - to no avail. 
    Anyone out there have any experience with this?

    I found a post here that solved the issue for me: http://www.bynkii.com/archives/2013/09/stupid_ios_mail_signature_tric.html
    All you do is paste in your rich content and then shake to undo the formatting changes and it magically looks the way you intended.

    Hi drewdollar,
    If you have Acrobat, you can use the Edit Text & Images tool on the Content Editing pane of the Tools panel. Just select Edit Text & Images, and then drag the image where you'd like it to appear on the page.

    Hi again,
    I can't think what I'm doing wrong... I upload the image - and I've tried this on our own webserver, imageshack, photobucket -, then copy the image location from the address bar en paste it into Sea Monkey for the image location... and broken link after broken link...
    Isn't there another quicker fix for this issue?
    <edit> ok i'm one step further. I've now got an image uploaded that actually shows up in Sea Monkey.
    Now, for this to work, do the resulting html file and web archive also need to be on a remote computer???
    No that's not necessary. those can be on your local computer. I think you are almost there. save the html file, open it in safari, save it as webarchive and substitute it for the webarchive with the dummy signature.

  • Image in Mail Mail signature is pixelated. How can this be fixed?

    Hi there,
    When I create a mail signature with image (72 dpi) in Mac Mail, the sent image looks very pixelated to the recipient. When I use a higher res image (150 dpi), it looks clear but then the image is huge to the recipient. To try and solve this issue, I have created an HTML signature and image looks fine, but since I have to impletment this across a large organization, having to go in and alter everyone's mail settings is not an option.
    Does anybody know why this happens?
    Many thanks!

    If you are asking how, while creating a email message, can you switch from the current outgoing email email message and look up a previous email to reference a line to include in the outgoing email without having to "save as draft or cancel" and the go back to the email message I am creating, this is my problem too. If the is not what you meant, consider this a new topic as I did not find an answer without going 10 pages deep in "topics".
    Thanks

  • Can't images be included in Mail signatures?

    Whether I paste or drag and drop a tiny (4k) graphic image into my Mail signature file, it displays in my mail document, but never reaches the recipient, displaying instead the familiar broken image icon.
    And, why - when I click on the question mark help icon in Mail - is there NOTHING in the help file? Excuse me for saying so, but that's not very helpful, is it?

    Hey, thanks, Mulder...
    While that article was interesting, the method explained in it didn't work for me. But neither did any other method... UNTIL I deleted all other signatures that were in Mail AND deleted the Mail signatures plist file, quit Mail and then relaunched it. Having done so, I was finally able to include the graphic in my signature file by just pasting it in there (I couldn't understand why Apple software wouldn't allow a simple paste or drag and drop).
    Thanks for your speedy reply. I appreciate it!
