In forwarding emails w/embedded photos, etc, only blank box w/red "x" is sent

I used to be able to forward emails with photos, documents, etc. embedded in the email, just as it was sent to me. I am able to see it/them when it is sent to me, but when I forward it on to others the only thing that shows up in the email they receive is a blank box with a red "x" in it-recipient cannot see what's embedded in that box.

Sorry for the delay in following up.
I only use Gmail occasionally, so am not too familiar with potential issues in forwarding.
One thought: If you use any site-specific script blocking such as NoScript or K-9, make sure that you aren't blocking anything that could be associated with Gmail.

How can I forward email with embedded photos?

How can I forward email with embedded photos so that the recipient gets them that way instead of all the text followed by all the photos?

Hello,
Thanks (or merci beaucoup). I am using Mail version 5.2 (1278) that came with the iMac (Mac OS X 10.7.4). When I forward the email to myself at my "me.com" email address from my "cox.net" email address, the photos come out as attachments even though they were embedded when I received the email on my cox.net email. What setting(s) can I make to have it get to me.com the way it was in cox.net, i.e. embedded instead of as attachments?

WHY DO PICTURES-NOT ALL-IN MY EMAIL APPEAR IN A BLANK BOX WITH RED 'X'-NO PICTURES ON MY PC AND LAPTOP BUT DO SHOW UP ON MY 4G PHONE?

PICTURES DO NOT SHOW UP IN EMAILS ONLY BLANK BOX WITH RED 'X' IN UPPER LEFT HAND CORNER

Photostream only syncs photos over Wi-Fi, make sure you are connected to Wi-Fi to begin with.
Photostream only syncs when the camera app is closed, ensure it is closed.
Photostream only syncs when the battery is above 20%, try recharging the device
Try disabling photo stream on your device (settings > iCloud), restarting your device and then re-enabling photo stream.
Note: disabling photostream and re-enabling it will result in any photos that are currently in the photostream album on your device, that are older than 30 days old, not being added back.

Unable to see photos in iphoto only blank boxes where the photo's should be

can anyone help , usually use the external drive to manage iphoto, for some reason now when i click on iphoto, only blank boxes appear and even when i eject the hard drive and open iphoto it thinks it has found the library with blank boxes . ???

Remember we can't see your machine.
There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on seven different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary from version to version and OS to OS. So before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff:
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. What were you doing when the problem arose?
- Did it ever work properly?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
Anything else you can think of that might allow someone else to understand your issue.
With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.

All photos in my I photp 5 are blank boxes!! Help , whre did they go!?????
thanks to oany one who can help.

I have previously (and am again) experiencing the same problem as the original poster, except I am able to get the "rebuild" window when I hold down ALT and CMD while starting up iPhoto.
The problem with "empty photos" (i.e. the frames around the photos are there, as are the keywords and filename, but the photo itself is missing). Looking inside the iPhoto folder in the Finder I see that there are lots of image files with file-lengths of zero. So the files are still there, but there's no data inside of them.
I don't know how the original poster ended up with these empty photos, but in my case I was organizing my photos by deleting unwanted ones, creating new albums, deleting unused ones etc.
Then all of a sudden iPhoto crashes!
(iPhoto 5 does indeed seem to be a flaky program as this has happened to me many times when working with a couple of thousand photos or more).
Anyway, when I opened it again the empty photos thing occured.
I'm guessing that the empty photos are indeed the same photos I deleted from my album, but because of the crash, iPhoto hasn't updated its information and still displays the thumbnails of the images, which of course aren't there, and thus shows them as "empty" images.
Now, I would imagine "rebuilding the database" and/or "rebuilding the thumbnails" would do the trick, but I've tried all 4 option available when you start iPhoto with ALT and CMD. Nothing solves my problem. Very frustrating.
And whenever I do something in iPhoto the "busy beachball" shows up for 10 to 30 seconds, causing a lot of waiting.
(To the original poster not being able to get at the options to rebuild iPhoto's files etc: what you need to do is start iPhoto, then IMMEDIATELY hold (and keep holding down) the ALT and COMMAND (Apple) keys. After a few seconds, instead of iPhoto opening up with your images you get a window with 4 rebuilding option. When you see that you can let go of the ALT and COMMAND keys).
If I keep getting these problems and there seems to be no solution other than to dump all the images to a folder on the desktop, then create an iPhoto setup from scratch and manually import the photos followed by the huge task of keyworking them, creating the albums etc. I'm going to look elsewhere for some better working software. This just isn't satisfactory.

Emails with embedded image show only =20

I am seeing this issue across multiple iPhones with iOS 4.3.x and 5.0. It is very inconsistent. I have seen the same email go out to multiple users in a group and some can see the embedded image correctly while others only see the following in place of the image:
------_=_NextPart_002_01CC8F42.DA025060
Content-Type: text/plain;
charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable
=20
=20
=20
=20
This tells me the sender isn't formating the message in a way the recipient cannot read it. It seems to be an encoding issue. The email will display fine in various email clients but not on the iPhone. The same email can later be sent again and it will work fine.
The iPhones' email accounts are setup as IMAP and the mail server is running Exchange 2003. I'm sure this will go away once I upgrade the server to 2010 and use ActiveSync with an Exchange account instead of IMAP, but I need to make it work correctly for now.
Is anyone else experienceing this issue and if you are, what server, account type, iOS are you running?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I have the same problem with FF 14.0.1 on a freshly reinstalled Win7 32:
I have a 100Mbps cable connection, but get a '''ridiculous 4-5 Mbps''' out of FF while the latest versions of Explorer and Chrome gives at least 75Mbps...
All tests have been done with virus protection on as well as off (the latter is something I loathe doing) and with two different speed tests, one of them being speedtest.net. The results are conclusive: The problem clearly rests with FF. So: What in Heavens name has happened to my longtime favvo browser? At the moment it is quite useless and I am at my wits end.
I don't particularly want to, but as of tonight I'm transferring all my bookmarks to Chrome as a hopefully temporary measure.

Iphone forward email with embedded pics show as attachments

when ever using active sync with exchange 2010, any forwarded mesage will get the inline pics sent as attachments
is there a setting to prevent this on an iphone?

I have done some more digging and the ATT0001.HTM files seems to be a glitch in the OS

Since the last upgrade some emails and sites texts show only as boxes as if that particular font is now missing.

Some important emails have come in and can't be read because all the letters look like boxes. This has never happened before. Some sites that I use are no longer legible because what appears to be the fonts are missing.

That worked. The FixIt didn't apply to win7 but I found a manual description of how to do the same. Actually there were two descriptions and one mentioned that non-admin users may not show up as available logons after this. Glad I noticed so I could do the extra step of re-enabling those accounts. Thanks for the tip. I have no idea what put the security settings off from default in the first place.
Here is a link for how to manually reset security settings in Win 7. It actually gives the same instructions as the next one for Vista but that one didn't say it was for win 7 so I didn't use it till I found this one

This one is for Vista but also describes re-enabling the users

Why can't I forward emails I receive with embedded images?

I have an iPad 2 and it seemed like I was able to forward emails with embedded images in the past, but now it never works. In fact, I've tried emailing directly from Photos and I have the same problem. No one gets any of my attachments or images. I've updated the operating system to the most recent version and it's made no difference.
And to make it even more frustrating, when I check my sent messages, the images are there!

Are you sure that you've set up an account that will automatically delete the messages? Is it a POP or IMAP account? I had a .mac account years ago running Entourage, but never had a problem. For some reason it seems that the server is not deleting your messages upon quit (or however Mail handles it). Maybe we'll just bump this up and see what kind of response you get from those with .me accounts running Mail.
What version of Office do you have? I'm pretty sure that 2004 was a PPC suite and won't run on your new MBP. If you had 2008 on your PB, then you should just have to re-enter your activation key.
Good luck,

When I forward an HTML email with embedded graphics to someone, it forwards it as plain text.. this is driving me batty.. how do I forward such mails INTACT??

I have the latest Thunderbird installed on a new 64-bit Winblows Eight netbook.. fantastic program, but one problem is driving me absolutely batty, and after using the latest Thunderbird for weeks, I simply can't figure out how to fix it..
I'm on a lot of mfr. and other kinds of mailing lists, like eBay watch list alerts, and so on.. these are not s p a m (although I get plenty of that.. who doesn't).. but lists I WANT to be on..
Many such emails from those mailing lists are in HTML format with embedded graphics.. I'm not talking about graphic file attachments, but embedded graphics which are coming from the senders' servers, and appear AS a graphic in the email.. sometimes such emails are one huge graphic with hardly any text.. all well and good..
However, here's the problem.. when I want to forward such an email to a friend, Thunderbird ALWAYS formats it as plain ASCII text.. I know this because I look in the "sent mail" folder, and can see that it has turned an HTML email with embedded graphics into plain ASCII text..
I absolutely can't figure out how to get it to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT, so the sender receives it looking the way it looks when I receive it from a mailing list, or an advertiser, or eBay, or whoever..
Is Thunderbird capable of forwarding an HTML email with embedded graphics INTACT?.. If so, how / where do I turn on that capability?..
If the capability to do this isn't built into the program, is there an add-on I can install that will give it that ability?..
I am not new to computers.. but this really has me stumped.. I want to put Thunderbird on my 32-bit Vista laptop and stop using its horrible "Windoze Mail" program, which I've been using for years, and is slower than snot, and has all kinds of other problems..
So, assuming whoever reads this FULLY understands my question, PLEASE tell me how to get Thunderbird to have the ability to forward an HTML email with embedded graphics AS-IS, so the receiver(s) I forward it to see it exactly the way I see it when I receive it.. if that ability is built in, please tell me how to turn it on.. if that ability is not built-in, please tell me what add-on I need to install to give Thunderbird this capability.. if Thunderbird absolutely can't forward an HTML email with embedded graphics at all, please also tell me that..
A virtual box of candy and a dozen long-stemmed roses to anyone who can give me a solution that works..
Thanks..

Dear Mr. Toad (my all-time favorite ride at Disneyland ;-) ..
Thanks so much for your detailed reply.. my netbook is in the bedroom, turned off.. I (so far) only use it in the evening, in the bedroom.. I've saved your response, and will try your suggestions, and let you know if they solve the problem I described. I really appreciate you taking the time to post such a detailed reply..
I can't answer your Thunderbird "configuration" questions, because I'm in the living room, using the crap Vista laptop, on which I plan to install Thunderbird, and then take Windoze Mail out in the street and drive over it a few times.. I'll get back to you one way or the other, and let you know if your instructions solved the problem, or not..
I don't understand why Thunderbird "out of the box", so to speak, simply doesn't forward HTML emails with embedded graphics, (like Outlook Excess, and Winblows Mail do).. without having to go through those steps. I personally HATE HTML email, but over the years, it's become more and more prevelant.. so it's a problem I must fix..
Thanks again..
Harv..

"Insert" functions, attachments, photos , etc. on outgoing emails do not activate

I am unable to attach documents, photos, etc. to outgoing emails. When I click on the "insert" icons nothing happens.

Thanks for the clarification.
You used the term right click on it to download instead of right click on it to save the attached file outside of the message which are very different things.
RTF with Tiger Mail is HTML or I should say can be HTML but certain things must occur in order for HTML to be implemented with a sent message.
Regardless the message font and size chosen at Mail > Preferences > Fonts & Colors, you must select a font and size via the font panel when composing a message or use bold, italics, underline for selected text or changing text color, etc. If you are using a signature that was composed with RTF or HML with a different font, size and/or color than is used in the message body or contains an image or logo, etc. Forwarding a message that was composed in HTML and the same when replying to a received message that was composed in HTML if you have "Use the same message format as the original message" selected for composing preferences at Mail > Preferences > Composing.
Any or all or a combination of any of these will send a message as HTML.
Depending on the Outlook and Windows version used by a recipient, Outlook has had some problems with Mail's RTF. There is no email client that is completely bug free and Outlook has plenty of bugs for such an old/mature email client and MS also makes the arrogant assumption that the majority of people that exchange email are using Outlook or OE and should be if not.
So long story short, using Plain Text for message composition can and does make a difference.

I have an iPhone and iPad on the same account. I gave my iPad to my daughter. Can I set up a new account for my iPhone only so I can back up photos, etc, in privacy?

If you set up a new account on your iPhone you won't have access to all the data associated with the prior Apple ID.

You do see the devices heading on the left sidebar? If you don't see the sidebar, go to View>Show sidebar in the iTunes menu and then check to see if the device appears.
If that isn't the problem, go through the troubleshooting steps. It could be the Apple Mobile Device Service issue.

I have upgraded my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1 and backed up my photos etc on to my computer, but only half of my pictures were restored

I recently upgraded my iphone to ios 5.1 and before I did this I backed up all my photos etc on to my itunes. When the upgrade was complete, all of my photos and videos had not been restored and some of them will not display or play.
I did a restore from my back up and approx only half of them were restored.
Can these missing pictures and videos be recovered

The iOS5 upgrade has made a mess of the bluetooth connectivity. iPhone4 was paired perfectly to 2012 VW GTI and played all playlists fine. After upgrade, can see the song, see the timer counting down as if it is playing, but no sound. AND iPhone 4s paired paired with 2008 BMW handsfree telephone before the update, now I can't use the phone in the car. WHAT GIVES??? Anyone with ideas out there???

I want to change my iCloud account. Buying iPad we gave a virtual (forwarding) email addr. We need to change to a real address. But when we try to change the iCloud account, we can only change the password. Note: we don't have Mac, only iPad and Windows.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Firstly, you need to change your details with Apple, Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.
