Saving MP3 attachments in Mail.app on Touch

Is there a way to save these attachments to your music library directly on the device?

Not wanting to start another topic, is anyone else having issues with the new Lion Mail?
First: is there any way to turn off the jps in the image and just send them as a file? I hate remembering to make sure the cursor is set to the best location for the inserted images
The problem I see is sending more than one file. Im not so sure the second plus file is attached.
I know for sure the image of the scond file is normally half gone.
Thanks for any insight and help.

  • Saving photo attachments in mail.app

    Can anyone please tell me if there is a simple way to save multiple photo attachments from several emails to one folder in one go?
    I am hoping that I don't have to go to each individual email & save

  • While saving multiple attachments from mail, files with same name are added and not replaced

    While saving Multiple Attachments from Mail, existing file with same name are not overwritted but new files are added in the folder.

    Hi all
    Hope to get some help with Elements Organizer.
    I have 12-15 years of digital photos that I now want to import into my newly aquirede Adobe Elements Organizer / Photoshop. Since my Nikon names the files with continous numbers from 0001 to 9999 I have multiple files with the same name although they are not alike at all. My previous software had no problems with that since I keep the photos in separate file folders based on import date. I generally import photos after each event and so name the folder with the date and some event info (e.g. 2014.12.24 - Christmas at grandparents).
    That is a common situation, I have the same limitation for files not going over 9999 on my Canons...
    Now - when I import my photos into Elements Organizer I get a lot of error messages with "same name exist .....) Hmmmmmmm
    Please sate the exact wording of the error message, I have never seen a message stating 'same name exist...' or equivalent; only messages about files already in the catalog. Files already in the catalog mean that some files have the same 'date taken' and file size in Kb.
    Any suggestions. I'm using a mac and tried to rename files based on date taken. The mac can do that but it takes ages to go into each folder and run the renaming script there.
    I also use a similar folder creation scheme (such a date naming is the default for the downloader). That way I never get a message about duplicates for the same file names.
    However - I can't be the first or only person with this problem so I figure that some workaround must be known out there. Maybe the import action can recognize date taken or - well. Thank you very much in advance if you can help me out here.
    You can alsways set the downloader to rename the imported files with a unique new name, there are many options in the 'advanced' dialog of the downloader. I don't know about Macs, but I don't thing there is a difference.

  • Error opening or saving certain attachements in Mail.app

    I have encountered a problem with certain attachments in Mail.app. I couldn't find any solution on the Internets, but I eventually figured it out and thought I should post it here.
    This has been a rare issue (only happened twice so far) and may be related to OmniGraffle files.
    The problem: When clicking to open the attachment or trying to save the attachment, I got the error: Mail was unable to save the attachment “file.name” to disk. Please verify your downloads folder exists and is writable.
    The solution:
    1. I found the message in the mail folder.
    2. I made a copy of it (just to be safe) and opened the copy in TextEdit.
    3. Within that message, I found the following header marking the start of the offending file:
    --Apple-Mail-4-912721465
    Content-Disposition: attachment;
    filename=file.extension.zip
    Content-Type: application/zip;
    x-mac-auto-archive=yes;
    name="file.extension.zip"
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
    4. I changed both references to "file.extension.zip" to just "file.zip"
    5. Save and double-click on the file to open it in Mail.app
    6. Now the offending file should appear as a folder and you can open and save it. The file you really want access to is within this folder.
    Notes: Both times my problem was with an OmniGraffle file. Maybe this is a clue, or maybe not. Also, I believe the problem has something to do with the file being zipped (or the way Mail.app handles .zip files), but have no proof!
    I have no idea why this problem is occurring, but if anyone has anything to add, please do-- I'm posting here mainly to share a strange solution to a strange problem. The more info the better.

    These permissions bugs in Lion are pretty prevalent and I've had to reset a lot of application defaults since migrating between machines. Do the following and let me know if it works:
    Copy your Mail and Mail Downloads folders in ~/Library/ ( where "~" is referring to your User). Paste these folders your copied into something on your desktop as a back up.
    Then navigate to ~/Library/Preferences and find the two .plist files named, "com.apple.mail.plist" and "com.apple.mail.plist.lockedfile" and delete them.
    Relaunch Mail.
    Relaunching should cause a new .plist file to generate that reads as defualt and using the contents of your ~/Library/Mail folder your OS X Mail shoudl look like it did.
    I have issues changing prefs in mail and seem to have a bigger bug at work since I continually have to trash my mail.plist once a week or else I can't connect to my SMTP server. But this always works and I get rid of the, "...writing preferences to your disk has failed..." message.

  • Problems with pdf attachments in Mail.app

    Any pdf attachment in Mail.app says it's empty and when I double click it says it can't be opened ´cause it's empty. The thing is on Windows using Thunderbird (yes I know, I've spoken the name that can't be spoken) the same attached pdf shows normally.
    I have no antivirus in the mac, or any type of filtering. In fact, Mavericks was clean installed about a month ago. Attachments arrive from Gmail. From the Gmail web interface, the file is fine and opens normally.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Krischi,
    sounds good (for you).
    What do you mean exactly by "deleted iCloud"?
    I do experience the problem not only with my iCloud mail account, but with all others also.
    Are you sure you have 7.0"3"? For me it says 7.02 is the newest and current version.
    Brgds,
    Peter
    Hi Peter,
    Writing my post I made an mistake! I deleted my app CloudOn instead of iCloud and as soon I did it, I could handle my PDF attachment as before using iOS5.x!
    The reason for this might be the fact, that CloudOn currently, according to the AppStore, is not upgraded to iOS 7.0.2!
    Regarding iOS 7.0.3 it was a typo! I'm using 7.0.2
    Hope that helps
    Christian

  • How to attach & send mp3 w/e-mail app?

    How do you send an mp3 as an attachment (using the iPhone 3G e-mail app) which is stored in the iPhone 3G iPod files as an attachment in an e-mail?
    I don't have a 3Gs, but a 3G w/OS 3.1

    You don't.

  • Ipad2 won't open attachments in mail app

    I have an iPad 2 on 5.0.1. I am unable to open photos, docs or PDF files that are sent to me via email. These same files open fine on my iPhone and Mac.
    On the iPad the attachments have an arrow on them. One click on it and a fast wheel spins but nothing opens. A click and hold does nothing.
    What am I missing here?

    How about something really crazy and unheard of? 
    I have two email accounts with Google Mail.  Both are the only ones set up in the Mail app inside my iPad2.  One would load everything: .jpeg, .docx, .pdf, and everything.  The other would not. 
    I tried hard reset multiple times, deleting both email accounts and hard resetting.  I cut all processes using SBSettings and killed all processes related to mail.  So I have nothing running now, and I deleted all of the readers (Adobe Reader, Goodreader, Doc to Go, Quick Office), and other apps I had added.
    Now I have nothing running and no apps installed.
    Then I set up mail again from the bottom, as if the iPad came in the mail today.  One gmail account still automatically opens and previews .jpg attachments, and show .doc, .pdf attachments with their respective icons.  THE OTHER GMAIL ACCOUNT IN THE SAME iPAD MAIL APP DOES NOT OPEN THE SAME MESSAGES I HAVE FORWARDED TO BOTH.  I would see an arrow pointed down in the icon inside that "faulty" mail account, and the name of the attachment below the icon.  I have pressed my finger a gadzillion times on those icons, only to see the spinning wheel briefly and nothing.  Holding them down would do nothing, and i can't open in other apps.
    The wackiest thing is... when I hit forward (by tapping the curved arrow at the top), I get a drop-down choice list: "INCLUDE" and "DON'T INCLUDE" attachments.  When I tap on INCLUDE, .jpg files immediately load and show in the reply message, only two of four .pdfs load and open, but no .docx attachments would.
    How would we be supposed to troubleshoot or fix something like this?

  • Corrupted attachments in Mail.app connecting to an IMAP server

    Hi,
    I'm using Mail.app to connect to our local IMAP server (over SSL). For a long while, I've had problems with large attachments being corrupted when I open a message in Mail. If I view the same message in our webmail client (which also talks to the IMAP server), the attachments are uncorrupted.
    If I save a message as source and decode using a mime64 decoding tool, the attachments are corrupted in the same way as from within mail. This is most clearly visible when the attachment is a large jpeg.
    If I remove the locally cached messages by deleting the /Library/Mail/IMAP-xxxxx folder, then re-download all the messages, the attachments will be often corrupted in a different position in the image.
    Using another IMAP mail client (Thunderbird) on the same machine to connect to the same IMAP server shows no corruption in the same messages which are corrupted in Mail.app.
    I can't say whether this problem was introduced with Tiger, but it has persisted for a long time. This problem is only for INCOMING attachments; I have had no problems with corruption in the attachments I send to others.
    Other Tiger Mail.app users in the building have the same issue. Any suggestions to identify and fix this problem will be greatly appreciated. It's possible it's bug in Mail, and I would be happy to contribute any information or perform any testing required to fix it.
    Using:
    Mail.app v2.1 (752/752.2)
    Thunderbird v1.5.0.7 (20060909)
    Mac OS X 10.4.8 Build 8L127

    The right way of doing that would be rebuilding the
    mailbox, i.e. select it and do Mailbox >
    Rebuild. Does that make a difference?
    Rebuilding the mailbox — no difference. The attachments are corrupted at a different position in the image, but still corrupted.
    Another thing to try would be trashing the Mail
    cache, i.e., quit Mail, in the Finder go to
    Trashing the Mail Cache — no difference. The attachments are not re-downloaded from the server, and so the position of the corruption in the image doesn't change.
    What happens if you move or copy the message to a
    local "On My Mac" mailbox, and open the local copy
    instead?
    The local copy then has corrupted attachments.
    /Library/StartupItems/
    Empty.
    /Library/InputManagers/
    SIMBL
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    Empty.
    /Library/Mail/Bundles/
    Empty.
    ~/Library/Mail/Bundles/
    GPGMail
    Mail.appetizer
    A quick test — disabling these plug-in components has no effect on the corrupted messages, even after re-building the mailbox in question.
    I should point out again that it's not just my machine that's affected by this problem. I verified today that other users of the same server are also affected. This isn't likely to be caused by a quirky configuration on my machine.
    Also, open System Preferences, and go to
    Accounts > Login Items. What do you see
    there?

  • Saving photo attachments from Mail to iPhone

    Merry Christmas
    The MMS debate and iPhone rages on and many iPhone fanatics say 'why do you need MMS when you can send/receive photos as email attachments...?'. If that's the case, is there any way you can save a photo received as an email attachment to the 'Photo' section of the iPhone? Is this yet another oversight from our friends in Apple or have I just not discovered how to do it? If the former, it seems the only way to keep photo attachments is to archive all emails with photo attachments - neither intuitive, functional nor an effective use of memory...or I could save emailed photos into iPhoto when next on my iMac and transfer them over to my iPhone when it's docked, but this somehow seems to underline the iPhone's lack of functionality in this area (a rarity given the rest of it is absolutely superb - aside from the MMS issue, lack of video & non-ability to forward/send multi-SMSs).
    Grateful for any advice, or do just have to write some feedback to Apple and just grin and bare it?
    Cheers

    Sorry to say this but yeah this one is for the feedback page, there is no way to save the photos from the Mail app to the Photo app

  • Can't open PDF email attachments from mail app. (iOS7, iPad2)

    Since upgrading to iOS7 I cannot open PDF email attachments from the "Mail" app. The attachment appears as a "tap to download" icon, after downloading it appears as an image of the first page of the PDF. An extended press of the PDF image results in "save image" and "copy" options, but no "open in" option.
    I have tried closing and re-opening mail, restarting the iPad, several different attachments. Still no "Open in" option.
    Any help with this?

    I work in a support organization and we've seen variations of this issue develop on various iphones and ipads with ios7.  Oddly, not everyone is experiencing this, just some people.
    In my own case, I simply downloaded Acrobat Reader for free and can read the things fine.
    We use an exchange activesync email server and when each email comes in it indicates at the very bottom that it has been downloaded as plain text and to click to download the entire message.  I've tried clicking to download and not clicking and I can read the PDF either way.
    In my own case I can view PDF files and/or also save them by pressing and holding the icon of the PDF in the email.
    The other thing one of our end users noticed: if she emailed the PDF directly to her iPhone5 and iPad it would not be readable but if she forwarded it to her offsite Yahoo account and then forward to her corporate email it would open.
    I think there's definetely something going on with the formatting of the PDF (was it created by a true Adobe PDF distiller or one of the many clones?), what email application attached it? (Outlook, Eudora, IOS Mail, etc) and how many PDF reading apps are on your IOS devices?
    For instance I have the default PDF reader, iBooks, Kindle, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and there may be others that I don't even know has PDF capability.   Only Apple probably has a good idea of how many apps utilize this.

  • Crazy amount of attachments in mail app on Ipad

    Hi All,
    I have been having a problem with thw size of my mailbox with the stock mail app on my Ipad. I curently have maybe ten (10) e-mails all with attachments in the mail app.... but the mail app is using 11gig of space? So tonight I added the attachments folder and its showing that I have some 4294967295 attachments! whilst this expalins the space taken up by the mail app. How is this possible & is there anyway I can rectify this?
    The e-mail accouct is setup as POP setup to delete mail daily...
    Cheers
    Brendan

    That's what I was thinking aswell, so I logged on to the e-mail acc via the web front and there's no way there's that many attachments/e-mails still there....
    So as a test I have now deleted the e-mail acc from my ipad & the disk usage has only gone from 11.8gig to 7.8gig.
    There are no other e-mail accounts on the Ipad now so i'm at a loss where this "data & attachments" disk usage is coming from?
    Epesicailly since the same acc is only using 2.4 gig on my Iphone 5s (where i have  aslo conatins a Gmail acc also present in the mail app)?
    Its super wierd that disk usage can still be some 7 gig + when there is no e-mail account present?

  • Change to dragging attachments from Mail.app in Mavericks

    It seems now Mail.app needs to be the active window when dragging attachments from an email. This means not just an extra click but often the finder window gets hidden behind Mail and this is a bit of a pain. Also there has been a change with the selection of attachments when dragging, sometimes dragging two if one is selected and you drag another.
    Has anyone also found this a problem and found a work around or settings change? It is certainly slowing me down

    I likewise can no longer drag attachments from a mail message to a Finder window - with Mail being frontmost or not - multiple items or a single item. I can only perform a "Save All (size) ..." from within the message - which does work fine to the same intended destination. This is on the replacement Mail.app 7.0 (build 1822).
    On a related note, Maverick Mail.app seriously broke addressing groups from within the addressing lines (via text matching). I have to openthe addressing windoid, select the group manually, then select the desired recipients onthe right side and then click the addressing line desired. Very narrow UI resprictions. What did they do to Mail???
    Two annoyingly unresolved issues with Mavericks Mail - quite broken from before.

  • The behaviour of encoding attachments in Mail.app

    I used to compose plain text mails.
    If I attach a file, for example:
    blabla1<file>blabla2
    Seems that Mail.app will encode them separately, blabla1, file and blabla2 will be encoded as 3 mime parts.
    So in many mail clients (maybe including Outlook), my receipt will see the mail content blabla1, and 2 attachments: file and blabla2(this is a .txt file)
    Even if I drag the file to the end of the text, in some mail client they will still see 2 attachment files.
    How can I make Mail.app not to split the text? I just want my attachment at the end of the mail.

    OK, I've found the solution. In the attach file dialog there's a check box to use Windows compatible attachment files, check it and it's done

  • Trouble receiving attachments in Mail.app

    Hello,
    I work at a university that just started using Cisco Unified Messaging and mail.app is having a little trouble dealing with the .wav attachments that are used to transport voice mails. Basically what happens is that I will setup Mail with an IMAP account attached to the Exchange server, everything is left as default for the account settings, and Mail will download the message properly except for the attachment, which it turns into a file called 'mime-attachment'. I have tried expanding this attachment with Stuffit, renaming the file to .wav -- which is the file type that Unity uses -- and finally, telling Mail to not download attachments for offline viewing, all to no avail. Has anyone else experienced this?
    Thanks so much for any help anyone could provide,
    Ted

    This same exact thing happens to me as well. Does anyone know how to correct this?

  • Remove attachments from mail app with imap account

    Hi Folks,
    I am quite frustrated. I am using Apple's mail app with Gmail (IMAP) and I want to remove all of my attachments from Gmail. I am using the 'remove attachment' feature of mail app to do this. However, it removes the attachment, then uploads a copy of the original email without the attachment. Therefore, I end up with two emails: The original and a copy without an attachment.
    I don't get it. I just want to remove the attachments from my emails. I don't want to delete the original email.
    Any thoughts?

    I am not sure when I will get the chance to test this -- maybe this afternoon. But I had not understood that what you called original continued to have the attachments. If so, this strongly suggests to me that it indeed may be the way Gmail maintains the All Mail folder that is causing this. See:
    http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6581
    If there is a setting to help this, it will have to be one that is selected in the Settings webpage of Gmail, I suspect.
