MacMail attachments not showing up on Windows

I am running Mac OS 10.6.2 and MacMail 4.2. Several of my Windows friends do not receive attachments even though others do receive them. I have "Windows Friendly" turned on. I send .doc, .pdf. and other files. Any clue what is going on?

Find a message you sent where this happened, and open it in the Sent mailbox. Click on Message in the menubar, choose Send Again, then click on Format and choose Make Plain Text -- then send it again. I suspect you will find it works, and if it does it probably means the RTF you were using converted into a subset of HTML, and triggered a SPAM filter somewhere along the way.

  • Attachments not showing as attachments in mail

    Why are my attachments not showing up as attachments when recieved. They are sent from Mail as windows "friendly" - but never the less always show up inlaid in the mail. The recipient then have to ctrl clik on the documents, save them on the harddrive before being able to fx print.
    very annoying indeed - please can anyone help on this :-)

    thanks for quick responce - but the problem lies with the recievers of MY mails - where the attachments is only inlaid and not showing as an attachment. The reciever then have problems opening attachments in i.e. Photoshop, and they cannot print the attachments directly from the mail..

  • IPod Touch will not show up in Windows XP after iTunes 10.2.1 update

    After updating iTunes to 10.2.1 my 4G Touch will not show up in Windows XP to charge or to sync. I have been reading this forum and following the multiple Apple help and troubleshooting steps with no luck. I can get Windows to recognize and charge the Touch as a camera but it will not update the driver for Apple Mobile Device. I have come to the conclusion it is an Apple software problem. Does anyone know where I can get the previous Apple Mobile Device driver for Windows XP? I would like to give that a try. It's really disappointing....

    Upon uninstalling and re-installing all of the Apple software nothing has changed. I can see Apple Mobile Device Support in add/remove programs but when clicking on "repair" it cannot finish and says it encountered a fatal error and no changes have been made.
    The error I get trying to install the driver in Device Manager says "I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request".
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • 7th gen iPod not showing up in Windows 8 anymore

    7th gen iPod not showing up in Windows 8 anymore. Tried all the apple troubleshooting. Help?

    I have tried all the 'Rs' that Apple recommend. As said, I can't hook up the iPod to my computer. I have tried to reset the iPod manually (holding the select and menu button) - but this doesn't work.
    If there is another (manual) way to restore the iPod, I would love to hear about it.
    As said: as for restoring the iPod - I can't get any contact with my iPod with my computer at all.

  • Mapped Drive B:\ to a network share but does not show up in Windows Explorer.

    I mapped drive B: to a network share but it does not show up in Windows explorer.  I can go to the drive by typing b:\ but is not visible in explorer.  But if I login as local admin it shows up in windows explorer.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Lloyd Reeves,
    Based on my research, I would like to suggest the following:
    Disconnect the mapped drive and map it again.
    Ensure the user is using an administrator account; or change another user account to have a try.
    Create  a shortcut for a share folder and see if it will disappear.
    In addition,  it would be helpful for future troubleshooting if you could help to collect the following information:
    Which method did you use to map drive?
    Was there any error message in the Event log? If so, please provide the      detailed information.
    For your information, please refer to this similar case:

  • Attachments not showing in window (i.e. no paperclip icon)

    I have seen this problem elsewhere on here, but not seen a solution so far. I'm on MobileMe emap - Apple Mail Version 3.5 (930.3).
    Basically I have a number of emails I have sent with attachments, but when I look at my list, the paperclip icons do not show up. However, if I highlight that email, then the paperclip icon pops up. This is a bit annoying when you are trying to quickly see if you remembered to attach the attachment.
    It looks like it has to download the attachment before it can display the paperclip? I've tried rebuilding the mailbox, but no joy.
    I thought it was a bug in Mail 3.5, but I haven't seen many others complaining!?

    Sounds like the same issue. Along with this problem, I sometimes try to open an email and I get the message that it's not been downloaded to my email system (even on older emails) and it asks if you want to download it.
    So I suspect this problem is caused by the system not recognising the attachment is there, because at that point in time it isn't!
    But when you click it, it evokes the request to check if there is an email and then it shows to paperclip.
    As you can imagine, it's difficult to test this theory by clicking on an appropriate email, because you don't know which emails have a 'hidden' attachment!

  • Attachments not showing up in Mail

    Do anyone have a usable solution for getting attachments to show up correctly in Mail? Every time I receive emails with an Excel or .csv, or for that matter .psd, .pdf or .doc files in them, the attachments never show up in the message body field or listed among the attachments.
    To give you an example: My list view of emails show the email with the paper clip icon and "4 items", but only 3 items are visible from both the preview window and when I open the email.
    I know there is a work around by selecting File > Save attachments, but come on that is not really a viable solution in an office setting when I receive 100-200 html emails with attachments, logos and other stuff on a daily basis.
    Do any of you kind superusers found a usable solution for this problem that doesn't involve saving everything attached from the File menu?
    Br,
    Christian
    And Apple... come on... you have got to be kidding with this #€#%!!! How can you be expected to be taken seriously as a productivity tool when something as simple as receiving attachments doesn't work. I feel like an idiot having purchased a MacBook Pro but still have to use Entourage because the most basic stuff isn't working as intended! (end of rant)

    This sounds like either the sender's or the recipient's (your) mail server is scrambling the attachments. This is becoming more and more common as ISPs try to scan for viruses and phishing attempts. If this is what is going of, it is very easy to detect. If you want, you can send one of these messages to me and I can tell you if my hypothesis is correct. Send the message to info at etresoft dot com and use the "Send Again" feature, not "Forward".

  • Attachments not showing in pdf

    We are having an issue where attachments are not showing in reader 10.1.14
    We can open the same pdf file in Nitro and see the attachments but again, cannot see them in adobe.
    I have searched unsuccessfully for a day on the internet but still have not found a solution to this issue.
    Any help is much appreciated.

    Hi,
    Are the PDF files showing with the PDF icon or other icons in your local disk?
    Please start Outlook in sate mode and test again. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    In addition, you may also try to clean out the Temporary Outlook Files folder to check the result. See:
    http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm
    Please let me know the result.

  • Ipod does not show up in Windows or Itunes! tried everything!

    Here is the problem:
    This is a new problem. Ipod worked fine on this computer until recently.
    Ipod 5th gen does not show up in My Computer or Itunes.
    It seems that it happend after I installed the latest update to Itunes.
    What is happening:
    When Ipod is plugged into my USB (the same one I always used before) it never shows up in my computer or itunes and always says "Do Not Disconnect" never stops!
    What have I tried:
    I plugged it into my friends laptop! It worked fine. Window found it.
    I then used updater on it
    I did the 5 r's over and over again. Nothing
    I have reinstalled Itunes and tried that a few times
    I tried different USB ports, nothing
    I tried putting other items in my USBs and they work fine
    IPOD just refusses to be seen on this computer again.
    Any ideas? Thanks. This comp has my library and it is the one I use daily.

    Thanks! But I actually figured it out! Right after I said something about the driver, I went into device mangager. Sure enough even though it did not show up as a drive letter the device manager said is was installed and working.
    So I deleted the device out of device manager. Restarted and plugged it in. Although I go some weird error. It found the IPOD and now Itunes sees it.
    I believe that killing the process would have done the same thing as you stated.
    Thanks to all for taking the time to answer these issues. It beats the apple store or tech support.

  • IPod not showing up in Windows explorer / iTunes - not responding to reset

    I have updated my new (1 day old!!) iPod nano to the newest firmware (1.1.1.)... and now I can't use the iPod anymore.
    It doesn't show up in Windows Explorer. When I try to connect to it via Run, it says: 'E:\ is not accessible. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable'
    When trying to open Windows Explorer, it freezes - not showing any harddrives.
    When trying to connect to it via CMD (dos)... It reads: 'The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable'
    I have tried all the soft resets, hard resets etcetera. I have uninstalled the USB driver for iPod, uninstalled iTunes, reinstalled them both, used different USB ports. But still no success.
    I can't connect to it via iPod Updater, because Windows won't connect to it.
    The iPod itself does respond, although I can't find any data on it anymore.
    How do I get my iPod to work again: connect to my windows / iTunes player? Please, any help is appreciated!
