I am unable to attach a file to an email

I have been able to find the file to be attached, highlight it and click open but with no result.

Hello, Firefox's pop-up blocker may have prevented the file upload window from opening. Please try adding Gmail to your list of allowed sites by following the steps below:
# Click on the 3-bar menu button and choose '''Options'''.
# Select the '''Content panel'''.
# Click on the '''Exceptions''' button next to Block pop-up windows.
# In the Allowed Sites window, type in mail.google.com in the address field, then click '''Allow''' to add it to the list.
# Click '''Close''' to finish.
'''EDIT: try one more time before the above suggestion.'''
thank you

  • All of a sudden I am unable to attach a file to my email without compressing

    All of a sudden I am unable to attach a file to my email without compressing. The email will show no attached file and then freezes and I am unable to add any content to body of email or change any of the content. I have to just delete the email and start over. If I zip the file it will show up in the body of the email and I am able to add content and send the email. This just stared happening, I had not changed any preferences or anything so I have no idea what happened.

    Want to explain - makes no sense  since they share the exact same library
    It actually that details are critical since we know nothing about your configuration or situation except what you choose to share with us  --  including what "everything you can think of" is

    What's wrng with that code snipnet?

    This works fine with me, try it or compare it if you want.
    public void sendEmail( String from, String to,
    String subject, String body) {
    fMailServerConfig.put("mail.smtp.host", " <<mail server>>");
    Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance( fMailServerConfig, null );
    MimeMessage message = new MimeMessage( session );
    try {
    message.setFrom(new InternetAddress(from));
    message.setRecipient(Message.RecipientType.TO,
    new InternetAddress(to));
    message.setSubject( subject);
    message.setText( body);
    //Adds Attechment:
    Multipart multipart = new MimeMultipart();
    BodyPart messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
    messageBodyPart.setText("Here are my attachments");
    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
    messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
    //first attachment
    DataSource source = new FileDataSource("C:\\img1.jpg");
    messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source));
    messageBodyPart.setFileName("C:\\Telnor1.jpg");
    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
    //Second attachment
    DataSource source2 = new FileDataSource("C:\\img2.jpg");
    messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source2));
    messageBodyPart.setFileName("C:\\Telnor2.jpg");
    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart);
    //etc...
    message.setContent(multipart);
    Transport.send( message );
    }catch (MessagingException e){
    System.err.println("Cant send mail. " + e);
    The error on your code might be:
    BodyPart messageBodyPart1=new MimeBodyPart();
    DataSource source1=new FileDataSource(filename1);
    messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(source1));
    messageBodyPart.setFileName(filename1);
    multipart.addBodyPart(messageBodyPart1);
    You don't need to create a new BodyPart, and apart from that you'r seting values on "messageBodyPart" but adding "messageBodyPart1" to your multipart :P
    Well see u and have a good one!
    p.s. i know it's a little late from the day you posted, but at least it might help somebody else :D .

  • Unable to attach a file to the email

    I am trying to attach a file using mail.app. When I click on attach(paper clip icon) then I am unable to traverse down to a sub-directory and to a file, instead mail.app attach the entire directory as an attachment. Is this a limitation with OS X? Again I tried the same with Sparrow to no avail.
    Only way is to open a finder window and drag file to the email message.
    Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated?
    Thanks,
    Paddy

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    *Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
    After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Unable to attach multiple files to an email in Safari using Macbook Pro 2011

    Is anyone else having this issue?  Safari won't let me select multiple files to attach to an email.  I can attach more than one file, but I have to attach them one at a time.  Is there a setting I need to change or something??

    I am having exactly the same issue as debsdesign.  The email I am using is yahoo.  I've tried both Safari and Firefox and it makes no difference.  I am using Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    So to reiterate the problem - I want to attach multiple files at once to an email message I want to send.  I have tried to do the following:
    1. Select 'Attach file" in my email message
    2. In 'Finder' I have found a list of files I want to attach
    3. I can only select one file at a time and "choose" them individually - I have 16 files.  I have tried holding down the SHIFT key and selecting the last file in the list.  I have also tried holding down the COMMAND key and selecting each file in turn.  Nothing works!
    Is there a way to do this on a Mac??
    Many thanks

  • Why can't I attach any files to my email

    I downloaded firefox 5 and yesterday, and now I am unable to attach any files to my email.
    I create artwork and can not attach any illustrator or photoshop files. Why?

    I just solved my own problem a few minutes ago. There was a little switch on the bottom of the Traveldrive. Locked or unlocked (the little lock symbols were so small I couldn't read them without a magnifying glass.
    Thank you for responding, sorry to trouble you.

  • Since latest upgrade to 7.0.1, I cannot attach a file to my emails

    Since the last Firefox upgrade, now 7.0.1, I cannot attach files to my emails using MobileMe Mail. I us an iMac, OS X Version 10.6.8

    Hi Swarnava
    I upgraded to Firefox 8.0 but, regrettably I am still unable to attach any files to my emails. Mail on my iMac will however accept the atachments.

  • I suddenly cannot attach any file to an email whilst using Firefox 5.

    My preferred browser is Firefox 5, which I have been using trouble-free until now. All of the sudden, I am unable to attach any file to an email. I simply get a file loading attempt that never times out. At first I thought it was a Yahoo problem, but my work email server will not add attachments either. I downloaded Google Chrome just now as a test, and still can't add attachments. Might this be a Windows problem? Anyone run into this? Thank you. I am my own IT department and it is sad... Katherine

    Try clearing your browser cache.
    Tools > Clear Recent History... - hit Details and make sure only Cache is selected, then select Everything and hit the Clear Now button.

  • After the recent update, my documents moved from Finder to Word.  When I moved the folders to Finder, I am unable to attach a file to an e-mail.  Any Suggestions?

    After the recent update, my documents moved from Finder to Word.  When I moved the folders to Finder, I am unable to attach a file to an e-mail.  Any Suggestions?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Since your Mac probably came with 10.4, there is no longer a way to get 10.5 Leopard install media. IF it has the requirements, you may be able to upgrade to 10.6 Snow Leopard by buying the boxed install media at the Apple Store for $30.

  • How do I attach a file to my email

    I am unable to attach a file - excel - to an email message that I am composing. Could somebody guide me how this is to be done?

    On my iPad, I'm using Office2 HD for my Excel spreadsheets. In Office2 HD, navigate to your file but don't open it. When you see your file listed, click on the arrow off to the right of the file name. On the next screen, you'll see a button that says "Email File". This will attach the file to a new email message.
    I'm sure most iPad spreadsheet apps will have some sort of Share feature. Keep poking around the app that you're using and look for the Share icon. There will likely be an email option there.
    Hope this helps!

  • My friend, who is blind and navigates his computer largely via hotkeys, has asked me to try to discover whether there is a hotkey for attaching a file to an email in Firefox. I cannot find this on the web. Any suggestions?

    Sorry, I don't know what other details I should provide. My friend has a program installed which lets him know out loud what is happening as he navigates, but it's been quite a process for him to attach files; he often requires help and it would certainly be easier with a hotkey.
    I did check the hotkeys list on this site and discovered a whole lot of hotkeys I never knew existed, but none for attaching a file to an email. Any ideas that might be helpful are welcome, however I should say up front that I'm not nearly at the technical level most people on here obviously are. I can, however, follow clear instructions. :-)

  • How do i attach a file to an email as an attachment and not embeded in the message?

    how do i attach a file to an email as an attachment and not embeded in the message?

    This question has been asked and answered several times already.
    Any file attached to an e-mail message is an attachment. There is no other possibility -- the mail protocol does not allow it.
    However, different e-mail clients may have different ways of displaying or viewing attachments, depending on their settings and the type of file attached.
    If you're having problems with Windows users complaining about your messages, follow these instructions
