Photos sent by email as attachment not openable by Windows XP users

Hi,
Each time I send photos using Mail from iPhoto '09 using email button in iPhoto to someone who has PC running Windows XP they cannot see the images. They are there but with just a little icon. Can anyone tell me please what they should do to see the images? Thank you

99% of the time this is a problem at the other end, usually folks who don't know how to work their email on Windows.
To make it 99.95% idiot proof, try send Plain Text emails. After you create the email and the New Message Window opens in Mail, simply use the Format Menu to to select 'Make Plain text'.
Regards

  • How do i get photos sent via email into the new photos app in yosemite 10.10.3

    Using mail on my mac, having upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 i now cant import photos sent via email into the new photos app. if i highlight the photo in mail and right click the mouse the option is still to export to iPhoto !!

    I was clicking on the photo, so thanks for telling me about the save icon - unfortunately this still tries to open up and save to iPhoto the same as clicking on the image but my photos have been moved from iPhoto to the new photos app as part of the update to 10.10.3 Yosemite. Although it also gives me the option to save other places i cant work out how to save into the photo app

  • Since updating to iOS 6.0.1, email app will not open and other problems.

    Help! Since updating my phone to iOS 6.0.1, my email app will not open, my email/contacts/calendar settings will not open, my touchscreen is unresponsive, my battery is draining in two hours time, and my delete button only works one letter at a time (can't hold down to delete easily). I've done a soft reset and I've restored twice to no avail. This is a MAJOR problem! I'm not wanting to pay for the apple care since this may result in upgrading to the iPhone 5 (last option) and the closest apple store is an hour and a half from me.

    This seems to be a common problem.
    I am suffering too!
    It would seem to be very shoddy from apple to allow such problems.
    Not the first issue since upgrade to iOS 6.....think home button problems.
    Has anybody got news of a fix?

  • Ince updating my firefox browser whenever i click on an internet link in an email it does not open on firefox although my mac switches to the firefox window as this is my default browser- what to do? Previously this has always worked without a hitch...

    ince updating my firefox browser whenever i click on an internet link in an email it does not open on firefox athough my mac switches to the firefox window as i have this set to be my default browser- what should i do?

    I have the same problem, and I also wondered if Google toolbar has anything to do with it. There GMAIL was set as the default mail application at first. I have removed that setting, but Firefox 4.0.1 continues to use GMAIL instead of Outlook which is my selection for mailto handling.

  • My mum has an iPad 1, the email programme will not open properly.  If you click on the icon it opens only for a few seconds but then shuts.  In that few seconds you cant select anything that you see on screen.  Any ideas? Thanks

    If the Reset Ian mentioned doesn't work...
    Shut down and restart the Mail app...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red to delete the Mail app from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    - Restart the Mail app

    I'm not sure this is similar to your problem but I had an issue once with opening word documents from the UWL and I think that the problem was that it was opened via ITS and ITS didn't not open word documents. try to set the links to open in winGUI and maybe than they will work.
    In the portal go to:
    Content Administration->Portal Content->Portal Users->Standard Portal Users->Universal Worklist->UWL - Launch SAP Transaction
    Under property category choose 'content - transaction' and set 'SAP GUI Type' to 'SAP GUI for Windows'.
    maybe it will help your problem as well.

  • I can open and read my email but can not open any links

    I Can open my email but can not open any links

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    It's probably not the cause of your problem, but you should update the iOS to iOS 7.1.2

  • Email attachments will not open

    Running Windows XP on a Dell Inspiron. Email attachments will not open on any emails, they will open in IE. In the past it would only happen on once in a while but then it would just be a gray box where a pic would be. Now no attachments will open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == End op April 2010

    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions - See [[Options window - Content panel]]
    A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (''Site Identification'' icon) on the left side of the location bar and click the "More Information" button.
    This will open the Security tab of the ''Page Info'' window (also accessible via Tools > Page Info).
    Go to the ''Media'' tab of that Page Info window.
    Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow.
    If an image is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box ''Block Images from...'' then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I have used the resume tablet and put my resume into format but when emailing it, it will not open on windows. How can I change the format to where they will be able to open and view it?

    I guess you mean one of the resume templates.
    What "format" have you saved your finished resume in?
    The only formats a Windows user will be able to open are .doc (Word), .pdf and rtf. The 1st 2 are usually the best.
    There is no Windows version of Pages.

  • Individual Emails do not open in Windows 8.1 with A Touch Screen

    I cannot open individual emails in my Xfinity email account using the touch screen.  Using my touch screen I am able to log in, and change the view to the full email list, but when I attempt to screen-click on any one of the listed emails they will not open.  If I start to use my mouse in the same session they do open.  I have this issue with two different laptops with touch screens, Windows 8.1, and Internet Explorer 11.  Changing to the compatibility view in IE does nothing.  I also have the same problem on both machines using Firefox (Version 26.0) as my browser; the touch screen will not open the emails, the mouse will.  I am using the browsers to go to Xfinity.comcast.net to log into my account.

    The one machine that I'm the most concerned about is a Dell XPS 15 9530. I have checked all the touchpad (Synaptics) settings; nothing's unusual. Comcast email is the only page I've had problems with.

  • PS10 Elements does not open in Windows 8, or opens only once. Can it be fixed?

    PS Elements 10 preinstalled on my new computer with Windows 8. It worked fine for a week, now opens once, then won't open again, or doesn't open at all. Adobe gives no support to fix this (they told me to research the answer on their site), yet their info says PS 10 and Windows 8 are compatible. Automatic troubleshooter gives non-compatibility message. Can this be fixed? Have spent many hours trying to figure this out. Uninstalled and reinstalled. Nothing works so far.

    Thank you for your help. I tried ctrl-alt-shift, and it worked a few times, but not every time.  After trying your suggested fix, here's what I've since found that works - so far - today.Open Task ManagerClose PS Elements 10Close Task ManagerLaunch PS Elements 10 Please keep in mind that I was closing the program the usual way (from the program) all along. I used an older version of PS Elements for years on my old computer (Windows XP), and never had a problem launching or closing the software. This problem came about on a new computer with PS Elements 10 and Windows 8. No other versions of PS Elements were installed on the new computer, nor were any settings brought over from the old computer. Again, thanks for your input. Will keep your suggestion in mind for any future troubles with Adobe products.

    Good day! You may want to post on the Photoshop Elements Forum. http://forums.adobe.com/community/photoshop_elements In general trashing the Preferences (by keeping command-alt-shift/ctrl-alt-shift pressed while starting the application) can be helpful with malfunctions in many Adobe applications.  Regards, Pfaffenbichler

  • Report not opening in windows 8

    hello all,
    on some machines report not opening after windows 8 installed can anyone had this issue .
    Please help..
    Dilip Patil..

    Hi Dilip,
    Based on my understanding, you want to open reports on some machines which have Windows 8 installed, right?
    Regarding the issue, we couldn’t understand it clearly, and we would like to confirm something from you below:
    1. Which method have you tried to open reports, SSDT, report manger or another application?
    2. Have you installed SSRS on the machine which have Windows 8 installed? If so, have you checked if the version of SSRS is supported on Windows 8? 
    3. On which version of SSRS you create those reports? If those reports open with a higher version of SSRS, you should refer to this
    article to upgrade the reports firstly.
    So in your scenario, please provide more information about the issue then we can understand the issue clearly.
    Best regards,
    Qiuyun Yu
