Ipad cannot forward attachements in email

Whenever my friend forwards me an email with attachements from his iPad the attachments (usually image files) never show up. It not only happens when he sends them to me, but anyone.
I've seen a lot in the discussions with this problem, but haven't been able to find a solution. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Sorry, but I failed to grasp that your friend was sending the emails from his iPad!
What happens when he sends just a single photo? Can you receive other types of attachments from him?
Get your friend to try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank power On again in the normal way.] It is absolutely/appsolutely safe!

I cannot forward or send emails from my ipod this has just recently happened. Used to work before ok

Do you have more than one mail account on the iPod? For out-going mail, the Mail app will first use the outgoing server associated with the account and then go to the out-goings servers for other accounts. To check go to Settings>Mail..>Outgoing Mail Server SMTP. Some providers do not allow mail to be send for other than the from that providers mail address. (e.h.,can' send AOL mail via a Hotmail outgoing server).
To me is sounds ilke the APL outgoing server is not on line. Also try resetting the iPod, nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Forwarding attachements in emails

hi,just got my Lumia 920. Have set up both yahoo and gmail accounts, but every time I try to forward an email with an attachment, the email arrives without attachment. any help? how do I solve this issue?

Hi justnew2lumia,
I tried to replicate your concern and came up with the same result as yours. When forwarding an email with attachment, you need to download the attachment first by tapping on it so that the attachment will also appear on the recipient's side.
I have attached a screenshot of my email account upon receiving an email with attachment, downloading it and forwarding it to another contact.
P.S. I have removed the names for security reasons. I hope you won't be confused with the format.

Cannot forward or write emails. Using linux os

I cannot write an email or forward a sent email. I use linux for an operating system.

I can't duplicate your problem, but I use OpenSuSE Linux.
I only found a couple of suggestions that someone with a similar problem posted. One stated that if he changed from rich text to plain text, it solved his problem. I'll add an image of the setting from the Yahoo web page.
The other stated that cleaning all cookies, temp files, and history fixed her Yahoo Mail. For that, go to "Edit>preferences" and choose the "Security tab. There is an option for clearing all history and cookies.
Other than that, I found where a lady had the same problem and complained to Yahoo. She got a response and Yahoo claimed that they had fixed her account.
Wish I could have been more help.

When I use Firefox with Gmail I cannot forward or send emails so what do I do?

I recently received an email from my son which was infected. When I use Firefox and go to my Gmail account I can no longer forward or send emails with the password account which was infected. If I use Internet Explorer I have no problems. If I use another Gmail account I have no problem. It is important I use the infected account and I prefer using Firefox. What can I do to fix the problem.
Phillip

Sorry about that! You can download Firefox 3.6 here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older

I recently opened an email with some sort of virus and now I cannot forward, reply, send emails or view you tubes only with firefox. Can you help?

I recently viewed an email and received some sort of virus. Only in the email address where I view in infected email and only when using Firefox do I have a problem. When using the email address I can no longer send emails, reply to emails or forward emails. I can no longer view You Tubes when using FirefoxI. I can send emails, reply, and forward emails and view You Tubes when using internet explorer. I do not have this problem when using another computer. I only have the problem described when using Firefox with the computer which was infected. I prefer Firefox so can you please guide me in a direction to address the problem.
Phil

thx for your response. are saying websites such as hotmail and yahoo mail detect that they are being accessed via firefox and turn off the JavaScript that makes hot links? really? additionally, i have friends with firefox in which hyperlinks stay active when they are copied and pasted.
was the "Make Link" add-on you posted supposed to fix the problem? i downloaded it, but i don't know where the "context menu" is that is supposed to help me. how to i view this context window now that i have downloaded the add-on?

TS3276 cannot send or receive emails on ipad

I receive an email with an attachment and I forward it the person who I send it to cannot forward it on

Like the question says. I receive an email from someone with an attachment. I can forward it on to someone else but that person cannot send the same email with the same attachment on to other people.

''Zenos [[#answer-662334|said]]''
<blockquote>
Have you tried to save the attachment and then re-attach it when you forward? It may be that the sender or his mail client did something that doesn't relay well, but by rebuilding the message you might improve matters.
You don't say why or how your recipients "…cannot send the same email…". What happens? What errors or error messages do they see?
</blockquote>
I have tried this but it still doesn't work. So many people cannot open .eml files. If I send an E-Mail by forwarding they do not get it the attachment.

The message cannot be seen on incoming emails. I can only view the message if I click on reply. Also any links attached to email will not open. I have tried everything to solve the problem but not able to.

Try closing the Mail app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

I cannot view HTML attachmants in Firfox that are visible in IE. However, the attachments are visible when I forwarded on the email.

When I check the the properties of the attachments that Firefox cannot open (but IE can) they show them as Firefox HTML documents. However, the attachment can be viewed when I forward on the email.

Thank you very much for taking the time to respond to my baffling dilemma. Unfortunately I have no idea what to do with your advice? Is ContentID cid something that I have control over? I suspect that the answer to my problem is elemental and is something very seldom considered by rocket scientist or other like minded intellectuals. It is a reoccurring problem which suggests that it is a fundamental settings error which should be easily solved. I simply need to know which button to press. It is not my intention to appear flippant but simplicity in any response would be appreciated. ,

Cannot forward email without losing attathments

when I receive an email with an attachment, I cannot forward it to someone else without first saving the attachment to disk then recovering it and attaching to the new email.

As Matt said here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/990923?
"Try forward as an attachment. It is on the message menu (Alt+M)
Certain mail client make a mess of encoding images, Thunderbird decodes them, but does not correct the issues when they are forwarded so the images are not visible. If my supposition is correct forward as attachment will show images."

Cannot forward email from iPhone 4

My wife cannot forward email.
I looked at my iPhone 4s and it has a bar at bottom. Hers doesn't.
She hates upgrades and I suffer for it. But I am in the trenches and I am still a believer in the product. Can I sit down now?
Oh yeah, the question: Why doesn't her iPhone 4 have a bar at bottom of her screen for the "garbage" and the "forwarding arrow" and whatever else is supposed to be there. The whole bar is gone. I will do a hard reset and hopefully that fixes it. I'm starting to get weary... send food and water until we can get the iPHone 5. I also set up a donation website for the expense, since we aren't eligible until end of next June for her only...

thank you!!! My wife says thank you!
I thought I was a power user and now I bow down!
lol
Thanks - My faith in the almighty Apple has been reignited.

IPAD3/IPAD2 :PDF files/ attachments sent in an email displayed inline ( embedded within the main email) in the message text on both my Ipad2 and Ipad three, however the same email displayed the PDF File icons/ attachment on both my Iphone and a friend's

IPAD3/IPAD2 :PDF files/ attachments sent in an email displayed inline ( embedded within the main email) in the message text on both my Ipad2 and Ipad three, however the same email displayed the PDF File icons/ attachment on both my Iphone and a friend’s PC. How do i get both my IPAD devices to display the PDF icons/attachments? Bearing in mind if i open the same email over the internet the PDF Icons/attachments display OK!
Has anyone come across this? Your advice/help would be most appreciated

This happens to me all the time.
If is a one page PDF it seems as though it comes over already open and inline in the body of the email. Multiple page PDF files show as the PDF icon.
I can't find any official documentation of this - other than based on my own experience with PDF attachments in my various email accounts.

for the moment you can Forcequit, as Eustace said.
Really quit a program you do by clicking the menu bar of the program where its name is, on the bottom you see "Quit (appname)"; when it is in the Dock, rightclick it in the Dock and choose "Quit".
Now about yout attachment: it does not matter what you did to it and where you moved it, as long as Preview is still open it doesn't let it go.
