Mail missing plug-in after update to 10.6.6

Since I updated to OSX 10.6.6 Mail shows 'missing plug-in' when I create an outgoing message with an attachment. I have also been prompted for passwords when sending email. Is there a fix?

For me, I am unable to log into my account if my Mac is authenticating against my Active Directory domain controller. If I am quick, and I can enter my password as soon as the prompt comes up, before the Mac has talked to the DC, it will let me log in. If not, I need to log in as the local admin account, disable my wifi connection, log out and log into my account and re-enable the wifi.
Doing this will get me logged in, but if I do anything that requires further authentication (installing apps, su in terminal etc), the authentication will fail unless I disable the wifi first. Quite a PITA, to say the least!
It seems that once I am logged in, I am able to connect to shares on the server, but running apps that access files on the shares, they seem to lock up frequently.
Is there a way to report this bug directly to Apple? Or do we just have to hope that they see this thread and fix it?

Mail Missing Plug-in after sending; quit and restart Mail fixes it

mail > Missing Plug-in after sending; quit and restart Mail fixes it.
Its very obnoxious after all these years to have Apple Mail continue to complain about Missing Plug-in
This happens for PDFs, .zips, .jpgs and other types.
Any ideas why Apple cannot seem to fix this?

Back up all data.
Boot into Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, follow the prompts to reinstall the OS. You don't need to erase the boot volume, and you won't need your backup unless something goes wrong. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.

puddlejumper,
What happens if you close down Illy, open Photoshop, and then open Illy ad try again?

Has anybody experienced missing sent emails after updating their iPhone to IOS 5.0? Mail composed on phone appears to send but is never delivered nor does it show in sent items. Using Exchange 2010. Any thoughts??

@Satterp
Not sure if you were responding to me or OP - my iPhone is on 5.1. The OP at the time of writing was on 5.0.1.
Also, the OP and I had setup our Hotmail as an Exchange server (similar to IMAP), not POP3.

Blocked Plug-in after updating Flash

Mail is now blocking embedded YouTube videos. Have trtied a number of fixes, including deleting the Flash Player.plugin, reinstalling the current version (even though I HAD the current version already), fixing permissions, and doing a deep cache cleaning. Any further help would be appreciated.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. Delete the following item, or anything with a similar name, if present:
Flash Player (failing).plugin
You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

MAIL - Missing Plug in? NOT!

Hi, Sometimes I'll send an email in MAIL (I have the latest of Snow Leopard and MAIL - and if I attach a few jpg images, or a signature - sometimes after I send it, if I look in the SENT folder I'll see that the email has NO pictures or signature in it. In their place I'll see "Missing Plug in" - and not what I sent
But - if I quit MAIL, then simply open it again, all is fine!
This has happened several times. So I guess I don't have a problem . . . but what's causing this?
Thanks,
Larry

Oh, I just read the "fix" of Java settings - restore default. I did that now - but this problem is very intermittent! Sometimes I won't see it for weeks - then it's there - then it's not?
Wonder what this inconsistency is? I don't know if the restore defaults in Java settings works, because it might work on it's own anyway?
Thanks,

Apple Mail: missing plug-in

I keep getting "missing plug-in" messages from Apple Mail in emails that contain actually JPEGs or other common attachments. I don't know when this exactly started (could be installation of 10.8.3 update or a security update). This "feature" occurs only on my Mac Pro. On my Macbook Pro all works fine with the same configuration.
Faulty system: Mac Pro Early 2008, Mac OS Mountain Lion 10.8.3, latest Apple Mail.
Working system: MacBook Pro 15" Retina Mid 2012, Mac OS Mountain Lion 10.8.3, latest Apple Mail.
I scanned this forum and the usual Google hits for help. I tried the following already:
repaired permissions, checked disk
all system & software updates done
Java preferences "restored to default", Java preferences deleted
repaired mailboxes
applied combo 10.8.3 updater
applied iTunes 10.2 combo installer
checked all configurations, nothing unusual.
sent an email with photo attachment via iPhoto
danced in circles @ midnight & full moon
Nothing worked so far. Any useful idea. This keeps annoying me!
Kind Regards
Frank

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Quit Mail.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu. A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Relaunch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you'll have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.

Can't see PDF files in Mail - Missing plug in

Hello!
Sometimes I can't see the PDF in Mail. In the message appears only blank page and a "Missing Plug in" .
When I try to download a PDF file the Firefox sent to me a plug in in Quick time page but I downloaded all and doesn't fix the problem.
Please, advise me.
Thanks

Hi Ryan,
This is not an Acrobat related issue, it is related to your local user profile, I will recommend you to contact your network administrator so that he can help you to create a shared user profile on the network.

Mail & Missing Plug-in /Java/

I'm using MAIL Version 5.0 (1244.2/1244.3) and I have a situation. I would send digital poscards from iPhoto to my email and when I recieve it Mail wouldn't let me see it. It says "Missing Plug-in" but I have installed a proper plug-in - Java for Lion. This is brand new computer with latest software installed and I have already issue? How come? Is there any solution for that?
Thanks very much for your help

I just tried another scenario.
On my Imac, I have two user accounts, mine and one for my daughter.
1. If my daughter send me an email from her account and her Iphoto using iphoto template, I receive her email on my accouint perfectly. I have not the message "plug-in missing".
2. On the other hand, if I send an email from my account and my Iphoto using iphoto template to my daughter, she receives my email on her account with the message "plug-in missing".
It seems the probleme comes from either my iphoto or my domain an dnot from my mail application. But no idea to fix it.

Mail missing plug-ins

OK, strange one here. I have several clients (Lion and Mountain Lion) that get the Missing Plug-ins in certain emails using Mail.app. They are all using Exchange 2010 server, some setup w/ IMAP, others as Exchange server. I know about the java trick and other things that 'correct' the Missing plugin thing... but this is something entirely different. I spent a few hours on the phone w/ Rackspace technical support trying to figure out the issue. As far as i know, all the missing attachments are images (jpg and png is what i've seen so far). Sometimes these attachments show up on an iOS device, sometime not - just like OSX version. If you look at the message details in OWA you can see the blocked attachments are replaced w/ https://email. ourcompany.com/owa/UrlBlockedError.aspx path, instead of the usual as shown by the other attachments. It seems as though Microsoft (in their infinite wisdom) is blocking these attachments for some reason. BUT... with Outlook 2010 on a Windows PC these attachments come through just fine. Even Outlook 2011 for Mac is a little better in that it may show one or two other attachments, but Mail.app or Outlook.app neither show ALL of the attachments -- but a plain, vanilla, Outlook for Windows shows them all no problem.
Does anybody have anything to add to this? The email ISP couldn't come up w/ any block list that can be changed, any other ideas, etc... I'm thinking I am going to have to call Microsoft which I really don't want to do. It takes an hour to bring somebody up to speed as to where i am...
Let me know, TIA. -- PetieG

This seems to be a known issue affecting a few people. I don't know what causes it. For a possible fix, see this thread:

Firefox reverts to older version on own. Now cannot re-install lost plugs even after updated rev.

Over time (months usually) firefox seems to revert to an earlier version that I was using, customization would be lost. This last instance, I lost plug ins and cannot get them to re-install though the process works as it always used to. I even tried re-installation after updating to the latest rev of firefox. I like Adblock and Noscript, but they will not re-install.

Reset the page zoom on pages that cause problems, make sure that the window is not maximized:

Missing plug-ins after downloading adobe flash player 11.2.202.235

Hello again:
I sent a request the other day for help regarding my downloading Adobe Flash Player 11.2.202.235 and losing the ability to play my games( they were bookmarked from the web) because of missing plug- ins. I mentioned that I know very little about this computer. I did get a reply saying that he needed more information about my computer which I sent and I have not heard anything back. I probably did not send the message correctly therefore I am sending the info again and I hope I don't screw it up this time. My computer is as follows:
iMac4,1 Version 10.6.8
Intel core duo
2GHz
# of processors 1
Total # of Cores 2
L2 Cache 2MB
Memory 1.5GB
Bus Speed 667 MHZ DDR2SDRAM
BootRom Version 1M41.0055.B08
SMC Version(system) 1.1F5
I hope you can help me in the simplest way possible so I can understand your instructions.
Thanks again,
Margaret

It's confusing when a single poster starts two threads on the same topic and it divides the replies or has duplicate replies for those that are unware of the other thread. You should post the above in the thread you originally started after my post which asked for some clearification on the problem.

TS4002 Mail is running slow after update

After the recent update on mail it is running at a snail's pace. Any suggestions why or what to do? I don't have mountain Lion

Seems like this process worked out. I copied over the Mail folder in Library >Application Support, replaced Mail in Library and com.apple.mail.plist in Preferences. Feels much better <3
I'm thinking Mail just had enough after years of adding and deleting several email accounts. I also think Apple had changed the manner in which data is stored for Mail. The folder structures and file locations don't appear to be the same in the two user accounts.

Mail doesn't launch after update 10.5.7 - Bis

Same problem as
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2007512&tstart=0
but no solution explained there.
Here the problem:
After updating to 10.5.7 everything works fine - except Mail. The dock icon bounces one or two times and then stops. There is no error message, no beach ball and the blue dot below the icon doesn't appear either. Before the update Mail worked perfectly fine.
I run Terminal and typed
/Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail
and got his error :
Unable to load nib file: MailViewer, exiting"
MagicPenguin 24 had exactly the same problem, and solved it ! see :
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2007512&tstart=0
But he doesn't say how he solved it !!
I tried the combo update, repair permissions and remove caches. Didn't help...
Any ideas ?
Luc.

Luc,
Your test with the New User Account seems to indicate that Mail app is flawed, somehow. Please confirm that the Mail application is properly in the root level of the Applications folder, and has never been renamed. Use Get Info and report the version of the Mail app in the Applications folder -- should be Mail 3.6 (if Mail were open it would be Mail 3.6 (935/935.3) using About Mail).
Use Spotlight to see if there is more than one copy of the Mail app on your Mac?
Ultimately, I would expect downloading the Combo Update for 10.5.7 and reinstalling it over the existing OSX would fix any problem with Mail, but the above questions should be answered and reported first.
Ernie
