Can't attach documents to yahoo mail anymore

hey, everyone. i used to be able to attach files to my yahoo email by clicking attach file and choosing the file (whether it's a photo, pages doc, numbers file, etc).
now, for some reason, when i choose attach file from the yahoo mail page and the finder window pops up, all of my pages and numbers documents can't be chosen. they're in a light gray color and i can't click on them. i have no idea what could've caused this. i did search around the forums and ran disk utility and repaired disk permissions but that didn't do a thing.
i'd appreciate any advice y'all could give me.

fyi, so i call apple care support and find out that this is a normal security feature of leopard. they told me that it's designed to help keep mac users from passing on a virus to others via email. just hit file, compress to create a zip version of the file and then attach the zip file.

Why does firefox send documents from yahoo mail to be opened by windows media player?

i have fire fox set to ask me where i want documents to be sent. most of the time i have it set to send to my documents. but for the past 3 months every time i down load photos or any document sent to me from my yahoo email address they go to downloads as a compressed zip file that has to be opened by windows media player. when i click on it of course windows media says it can open the file. yahoo says it fire fox that is the problem , but fire fox doesnt do this with any thing but my yahoo mail. at any rate i would like it fixed or i dump ff and yahoo.
sorry but im sick of both parties.

can any one tell me how to solve the problem with ff. else i will drop ff and windows media player . ff is no good for helping any body. its just and icon their whole supposed to be support system.

would I be able to "upload" (not sure how else to say it) my existing folders and subfolders containing all my emails so that they are all available on my new IMAP service, while still being available on my Mac?
Not easily, no. There's no direct transfer option between POP and IMAP, especially across email providers. The best you could do would be to forward all of your emails to your new address, although it's not clear that you need to - dropping your sbcglobal.net account doesn't instantly render all your existing mail void - it'll still be in your Mail client, you can still read it, search it, etc., it just won't be on your provider's server.
I have toyed with the idea of getting a MobileMe account. Would that solve my issue/question above?
MobileMe would be viable, especially if you're interested in synching your various iOS devices. It's not free, of course, unlike Yahoo and Gmail, although you've already discounted them...
I have also toyed with purchasing my own URL, but it's hard to tell from the sites (1and1, Namecheap, etc.) if they come with IMAP email accounts included.
Some registrars offer email hosting bundles with a domain registration. This could be a good way to go. GoDaddy, for example, have a email hosting option for domains you register with them.

Lion running Safari 5.1 cannot attach files in Yahoo Mail

I've seen a bunch of various threads on this over years, but none have answered it for my situation.
In this case clicking the "Attach" button in Yahoo Mail does absolutely nothing. No freezes or crashes - it just will not invoke a file tree to pick the attachment from.
I just migrated over frrom a 2009 Mini to a 2011 Mini. The exact same browser version running in Snow on the old Mini was working perfectly 2 days ago.
Thoughts?

Thanks Carolyn - Done as per your suggestion!
I'm pretty sure this is something I couldn't do in Snow? (I''ve only been using Lion for a few days now). - And/or this is something Yahoo only started to allow recently - before, in the old days POP Mail was an add on Pay feature. IMAP is new(ish) for them. Maybe this is something I never looked for either (old dog/new tricks)
Speaking of Lion - looking to make sure the Yahoo messages were copying off of the Yahoo servers I looked for them in - Home/Library/Mail - but that's hidden in Lion now. Go-> ~/Library reveals that it's all downloading fine.
FWIW - The "ATTACH" button started working again for me this morning without doing a single thing. No restart, didn't quit anything - left the Mac to sleep for 5 hours and tried again and it's working! Strange.

Safari 5.0 freezes after attaching files in Yahoo Mail

Since upgrading to Safari 5, I cannot use Yahoo mail after attaching a file to a message. The program acts like there is a dialog box open and it is waiting for a choice to be made, but there is no dialog box.

HI,
BrowserPlus is causing problems when attaching files to Yahoo mail. It's not compatible with Safari 5.

Yahoo mail tool bar (delete,more,spam,etc) not working in firefox.Works in Explorer.Web search points to Mozilla update problem."Plug-ins" up to date. Solutions?
I've used firefox for years now with out problems. Now that help is needed, Could you make this any more frustrating? I thought I was asking Mozilla help and I'm sent to "users". I went there 1st! there are similar questions but no answers. I've lost time and data. Is there any REAL PEOPLE to help with firefox problems?

I'm a real person, thanks.
If you mean, does Mozilla have paid staff you could phone or email, the answer is "No."
Is the problem with a feature of the Yahoo! mail web page itself, or the Yahoo! toolbar?
General advice:
When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* click the padlock or globe icon in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
Could you test in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
''If Firefox is not running:'' Hold down the Shift key when starting Firefox.
''If Firefox is running:'' You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
* "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
and OK the restart.
''Both scenarios:'' A small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Refresh).
Any difference in how Yahoo! works?

In Yahoo Mail, when composing an email I get an "Asking to leave this page" panel; it does not matter whether i choose stay or leave, the panel pops up again....and again...the only way out is to Force Quite Firefox and start all over...help please...

Thanks for responding....but isn't your potential solution designed for Windows users? I have a Mac.
If it does apply to Mac, I am also hoping for something simpler as this could take weeks to isolate the problem and it would be more efficient to use another browser for mail
Also, I should have added, this problem occurs only occasionally and seemingly only when I am taking some time to compose a message

Cant attach files using yahoo mail

When I attempt to attach a file in yahoo mail i get an error message. I can attach the files if I use Firefox

The problem is Safari 6...it's buggy and wouldn't allow me to attach any file types to a yahoo email note. I downloaded Chrome and everything works fine. This is my first Apple machine and I have to say I'm disappointed in their Safari browser. The sales guy said I was "purchasing an elegent system that would work right out of the box", I didn't anticipate having to do work-around solutions on day one. What a joke.

Cannot attach photos using Yahoo mail ... always could before your last upgrade. that seems like a downgrade to me.

I can no longer attach files in Yahoo mail since upgrading to FireFox 4.0.1. I click the "attach" button and nothing happens - no file list to select from appears; nothing.

Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1 the "attach files" function in my Yahoo Mail account no longer functions. When I click the "attach files" button nothing happens - nothing. No file selection box opens, no error message appears, no pinwheel of death, nothing.
The "attach files" button is no longer 'hot' in FF 4.0.1 either = the "little hand" icon does not appear when I scroll over it. Other action buttons are still 'hot' ("attachments", "emoticons", "format", "hide bcc"etc.) - just not the "attach files" button.
The Yahoo Mail "attach files" function still works when I use my Safari browser, however. So, it appears to be a FF4.0.1 issue.

You can try to delete the file mimeTypes.rdf

Dropbox attachment sync with yahoo mail works in Chrome but not firefox.

In the beginning on April 2013, Yahoo mail added the feature of attaching a files straight from dropbox. This feature works fine when I select it in Google Chrome. When I select the option in Firefox it opens up the little window and has the loading wheel. It just stays at that stage forever. Where as in Chrome the dropbox window opens in 2 seconds. Is there as setting I need to change or and add on that I need to get? What's the problem?

hello, does it wkor when you launch firefox in safe mode for testing purposes once?

In Firefox, can't attach files to Yahoo Mail outgoing messages. Yahoo Mail works fine in Internet Explorer though.

Since yesterday, when I switched from Comcast to AT&T as my broadband internet connection, I have not been able to attach files to my Yahoo mail messages using Mozilla Firefox. I don't have this problem when using Internet Explorer, but my default browser is Firefox by choice. Is this a Yahoo issue or a Firefox issue? Can you help me resolve it?

Not helpful. 'clearing Firefox's cache' is not helpful, since 'cache' doesn't show up in any of the Firefox pulldown menu choices (wasted time looking for that), and the plethora of things 'recent' and 'history' to choose to act on in these menus is also a possible waste of time, not to mention removing useful info for no reason.
I, too, have had this problem 'intermittently' for many months, always involving the 'first' file to attach in a Yahoo! email, and I've always used this workaround OK: click on the filename showing as 'being attached' (while Yahoo's doohickey round spinner denoting 'in progress' whirls and whirls to no effect) and use "Remove File"; THEN, REPEAT 'attach file' task & it then works, if slowly. After that for the same email, attaching add'l files NEVER HAS A PROBLEM.
SO, now today, without any software update yet (I've downloaded Firefox v.11 & will install shortly), at numerous attempts during the day, I CANNOT get the FIRST file to attach in a Yahoo! email. Simply, utterly, frustrating without any rhyme or reason. "Everything else, on plethora of sites, working fine."
thanks.
