Saving an attached file in mail to iCloud

How do I save an attached wod document in mail to Icloud?
I have saved other documents in pages but the ability to save a document in mail to Iclodu does not seem to be there
Any suggestions

You can't save Word files to iCloud because Microsoft have not made Word iCloud compatible. Only apps that are compatible with iCloud's Documents in the Cloud feature that have a corresponding iOS app can be saved to iCloud for access from all your iCloud connected devices.

How to attach files to mail

When I attach files to mails (.pdf, .jpg, .docx etc.), they arrive in Windows Outlook embedded. My mail settings are "Always Send Windows-Friendly Attachments" and "Always Insert Attachments at End of Message".
I know how to open these attachments in Windows Outlook but my recipients do not. To suggest that they learn how to, as I have seen in some places, is arrogant. If I apply for a job by email and attach my resume with instructions on how to open it will reduce my chances of getting that job close to zero.
How can I attach files that will be received as files and can be opened by the MS Windows recipient with left mouse clicks?

Another way to send files to others is to use Dropbox.
In your email you don't attach the file, but rather include a link that you reciepeints then use to download the file.
I use this method for particularly large files, but it can be used for any file.

Can't attach file in mail since the last update

Have updated the IOS to 10.8.5, ever since , I'm not able to attach files to mail ....... Any solutions ?

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

I can't attach Word file to mail on iCloud

I want to send my resume to a recruiter,
but it does not work.
I click on the icon to attach a file (paperclip icon)
i wait for a moment but nothing happens,
so i don't know if the file is attached or not.
My resume is only 57Kb so the file size is not a problem.

I'm still having this problem. I can't send emails from iCloud.com with any attached files (small word docs or small pdfs).
I have an old MB running 10.5.8. I've tried sending emails from iCloud.com using Safari 5.0 and Firefox 9. Any suggestions (aside from buying a new computer)?

Can't attach files in Mail

I am unable to attach files created in Pages to e-mails composed in Mail. I used to be able to do this, but recently all of the files in my documents folders are either showing up as "grayed out" and thus are unavailable to attach, or (worse) they're not even showing up at all. This is true whether they're saved as Pages files or as Word or pdf files. I would like to once again be able to attach files in my Mail e-mail accounts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can you attach files from any other location?
I would suggest rebuilding your mailboxes in mail and then repairing permissions.

Attach file to mail with "unusual" characters

Hi
I have made a procedure that can send mail with attached file/files. But when I attach a text file that contains characters like (Å, Ä or Ö) these characters gets like (A, A and ?) when I recieve the mail to my mail client. When I look at the file on the disk before I attach it the characters is OK but when I attach the file and mails it the characters get replaced. So why does the charaters get messed up when I attach the file to a mail??

Hi Madhu,
Using the default modules PayloadSwapBean and MessageTransformBean you can able to send multiple attachments.
swap.keyName :payload-name or payload-description or content-type, content-description. swap.keyValue: If you have a multiple attachments then give the multiple key value.
Like you have payload name
Attachment1, Attachment2 then
swap.keyName payload-name
swap.keyValue Attachment1, Attachment2
Using the MessageTransformBean you can able to change the file name.
PayloadSwapBean:

Cannot save attached files in Mail

My problem has to do with using the Mail program on a MacBook Pro running Mavericks. Lately when I receive an email with a file attachment (image, Word doc, PPT file, whatever) I cannot save the attached file.
I point to the attachment "download" dialog box, and choose either the "save all" option or the specific attachment filename shown, then navigate to the desired folder and hit "save". But no file is created.
The attachments are there - if I look at the same email using the gmail web-based mail utility I can easily download it. It's a problem with the Apple Mail client.
Any suggestions? Thank you.
Jerry

Zips and other archived/compressed files won't work as expected on an iPad since you can't just preview/view the contents directly from the attachment currently like you can with quicktime-compatible or other common media formats. Basically you would need to be able to save the zip file to the finder and extract it, and view the contents from there. But since the iPad doesn't have anything like a user-accessible Finder, it's tricky to implement.
There may be third-party apps that deal with this eventually (or maybe even something from the upcoming 4.0 software, who knows), but it would probably be easier to just have people send you attachments that aren't zipped up for now.

Problem with attaching files to mail message

Hello,
I have problem with my mail app. I'm using spaces for better organization. When I wanna add some file to mail message I usually go to different desktop (space), where I have the file I wanna attach. I grab it move to right up corner to activate spaces, than move to desktop (space) with mail.app and press spacebar (it activates the desktop immediately). At that time it also start random app, which is in my dock.
You can see it in my youtube video.
How can avoid this strange thing happen?

I'm using MacBook Pro 15'', Snow Leopard - latest updates. I've reinstalled my mac two days ago, so no garbage should be in.

Thanks for quick reply.
I don't have selected "always..." so I also tried it with selected "always...".
Now I discovered that it has nothing to do with the mail. I've tried just move some file from one of spaces (desktop) to another using the spacebar for faster switching and it did the same. It opens random app from Dock.
So now this topic is in wrong discussion. I will post it to correct discussion...

Problems reading attached files in Mail 5.2

After moving messages from inbox to different mailboxes, it sometimes happens that the attached file (exel, word...) disappears as an attachment and is no longer readable. > The content converts itself as a long text looking like this "CBAAAAYFAOwVzQfBwAAABgMAAOEAAgCwBMEAAgAAAOIAAABcAHAADQAAYWRtaW5pc3Ry...." and I can no longer save the file because it has disappeared!!!
I don't want to PRINT or SAVE every attachment. I just want to keep the message as long as I might need it's content. But this is no longer possible nor reliable.
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME??? Thank you :-)

How do you attach files in mail only as icons?

When I am attaching files (in particular PDF's or Power Point) to an email message in Apple mail the file is opened and attached to the end of the message.
How can I attach it only as an icon or convert it to an icon.

I tried your suggestion on "compressing the file' in Finder and it attached the zip file. The only problem is it created an additional file (zipped) on my drive.
Thanks

I can't download attached files on Mail iOS 7

Since I upgraded my iPhone 4s and iPad 2 to the last released version of iOS 7 I'm unable to open attached files to my Mail messages. It says Tap to Download but nothing happens? I've tried restarting the iPhone and the iPad, and I've already activate in the Mail control panel the switch that allows to download images.
Any suggestions?
Best
Alberto

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:

Unable to attach files in mail and unable to print from browser

while trying to attach files it is not opening the path in mozilla. and uable to print directly from browser.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings and disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
''(If you're using an added theme, switch to the Default theme.)''
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu by clicking on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item:<br>
[[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]<br><br>
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
[[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''

Saved file will not show up when trying to attach file in mail

Sometimes... and only sometimes.. when I make a new file and then go back to my email or browser to attach the file it will not show in the place I saved it. If I click to list view SOMETIMES. I check the folder I saved it in and it's there.... .. go back to attach it.. it's not. Sometimes it will pop up if I toggle to column view then back to list view, but not always. Sometimes it's there the first time. Frustrating!!!

Hello, and welcome to the Discussions.
This sounds like a permissions problem. Have you recently Repaired Disk Permissions? Is the file saved on the same HD or partition where your Home folder resides?

How do I remove duplicate attachment files in Mail

While looking in the Mail folder I have found numerous duplicate pdf files. Are these the attachments to a Email and can the dups be erased? Thanks, HJZ

You can manage what attachments are kept through Mail preferences. In Mail, click the Mail menu in the menu bar and choose Preferences. In the General tab, choose the option of your choice for the "Remove unedited downloads" option. (I personally use the "When message is deleted" option, although I believe the default is "Never"). Note that you might see duplicates because an identical attachment was included on multiple emails.
