Problem with PDF attachments on Leopard's mail.

I just found a bug or something in Leoprd's mail . When I try to send a mail with PDF attachments, mail just stuck, nothing happen. The fan start to spin and mail grab all of the processors power nearly 100 %. What's weird, there aren't problem with sending other attachment like JPG for example. I tested it on all of my accounts and on all of them, situation is exactly the same.

The same problem here! Mail.app is behaving weirdly, but eventually it stopped sending e-mail with some filetypes attachments (.doc, .xls, .pdf not working, .jpg working), app just freezes - impossible to quit! HEEEELP!!!

Why don't PDF attachments not visible in mail.

Mail is not displaying PDF's that are attached in the body of the email. We have been dragging and dropping pdf and jpeg images into emails for years. The images are visible
in the anders email but not to the receiver. What changed? Why are they not visible. We shouldn't have to down load or use quick view to see them. The image files are under 1 mb.

Hi,
Similar problem here with me.
Also this thread - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1997630
Hopefully we can find a solution.
I've rebuilt mailboxes and re-added accounts to no avail.
Attachments are working fine in the web interface but when syched with IMAP to Mail - no worky.
I get a winmail.dat file instead.
Cheers

Mail/Gmail/PDF attachments not shown in mail.

I currently use apple mail to access my gmail emails however every so often I notice that some of the emails that mail picks up from gmail do not contain attachments (.pdf) that are visible when I log into gmail. Any suggestions as to how I can make them appear in mail? It is often very irritating.
Mail version 3.5.

PDF Attachments Removed from Mac Mail, show up in .Mac webmail

I have two clients that receive autogenerated PDFs from our ColdFusion server to their .Mac mail account. They had no problems receiving these attachment PDFs with Tiger, this problem is new with the Leopard 10.5+ operating system.
These e-mails have a little bit of text, a logo inline and a PDF attachment. In .Mac Webmail I see the image, the PDF attachment and all is well and good, strangely enough.
In the Mac Mail (v3.1) I see the text, the image and NO PDF attachment (it only says there is ONE attachment (the inline JPG), when in fact there are TWO. It seems that the PDF is being completely stripped from the message when received from .Mac's server. If I send the user a PDF from my MS Outlook, or any other e-mail client, it's received fine.
Anyone have a similar issue, and have you found a fix? Or any ideas where I can troubleshoot from here?
I'm stumped.

The thread here discusses the same issue, and the Command Y hack worked for me. There's got to be a better way.

PDF attachments won't open in ios4 mail

PDF attachments received in ios4 mail will not open. First page only displayed. How to fix?

i finally got it to work. i went through all my apps and tried to think of anything that could interfere, including iBooks, and removed them using iTunes. I then hard reset my phone and checked to see if i could at least view them as i used to (iBooks) and i was. i then put iBooks back on my phone, checked a PDF in mail and was able to quicklook it or open in iBooks. i was able to then add the other apps back with out losing the functionality.
apps i removed to get it working:
Stanza
AirSharing
EasyTask
Bump
Photoshop Mobile
hope this helps

Pdf attachments won't open

I Have Adobe Acrobat reader app downloaded to my iPhone but I can not open PDF attachments in my e-mail.
This seems to a simple issue but I am new to iPhone so any help would be great.

Please see the Mail section of the following FAQ document.
How to get PDF documents into Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 version)
Apple Mail (the default mail app on iPhone/iPad) has known problems with attachments (not just PDF attachments). You may also want to take a look at the other FAQ document.

Please let us know if you have additional questions.

I recently purchased an Iphone 6plus and I am receiving pdf attachments that are shown as winmail.dat attachments on the phone. When I check e-mail via my macbook pro the attachment is a pdf and I can open it. Why is this happening?

I recently purchased an Iphone 6plus and I am receiving pdf attachments that are shown as winmail.dat attachments on the iphone. When I check the same e-mail on my macbook pro the attachment is a pdf and I can open it. Why is this happening?

I had this problem too after i upgdatd to OS X Mavericks... only the songs on my iphone 5s that i purchased from itunes would play.
i read something about it being a syncing issue. when you plug your phone into your computer with the usb cable, the person said to switch from automatic syncing of itunes to the "manual" option. mine was already set to manual so i wasn't sure anything would work. BUT, when i plugged my phone into my computer, it started to sync all of my music on my phone again (top of itunes bar where song playing/time is listed said "now syncing 123/534 songs to x's iphone"). once that was completed, i checked the music app on my iphone and everything was back to normal!
so, i would suggest setting your music syncing settings to manual if you haven't tried that yet!
hope this helps!

Pdf attachments do not come through on iCloud mail but they do on other email accounts on same device

I have several email accounts set up that appear on all my devices: iMac, iPhone and iPad. I use 2 email accounts for work purposes, and good thing I use two. I receive pdf attachments in non-apple email accounts, but the same email sent to my iCloud address comes through minus the attachment and shows only "winmail.dat". I am using the same device to read the email from the different accounts, but the problem is consistent with all my apple devices. This has to be a setting in iCloud mail but I can not figure it out. Please help.

Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as NEW.
If the basic troubleshooting steps don't work, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and probable replacement.

Some pdf attachments missing in mail 5.2

I fail to receive pdf attachments intermittently using Mail 5.2 running OS X 10.7.3 (Lion). When the attachments do not arrive, I see no paperclip in the attachments column. On a recent occasion, a colleague sent me three consecutive emails, each with 1-2 pdf files attached. The middle one (containing one pdf), shows no attachment in Mail. However, I know the attachment is there, because if I open it on my iPhone, I see the attachment. What's more, if I forward the email to myself from the iPhone, I can now see the attachment again. This has happened several times in the past as well. Any ideas?

I have the same problem, failing to receive pdf attachments intermittently using Mail 5.2 running OS X 10.7.3 (Lion), and not being counted among the attachments
Two times where I'm aware it happened, the sender had replied and included the attachments I had sent in my original message, and I'm wondering if those attachments somehow led to their own attachments not displaying and not even being counted in the e-mail window. "3 Attachments, 317 KB" displayed, but those were my three; clicking the "Save" drop-down menu listed only those 3 attachments of mine. In one case, I had them resend their attachments as a new e-mail, and that worked. Their 2 attachments totalled 941 KB, so Mail missed rather a lot by displaying just 317 KB.

Pdf attachments to windows mail won't open correctly

pdf attachments to emails won't open. I'm using Vista Ultimate 64. The attachments want to open in system 32, and error message says to "set associations." Set asociations is already set to reader 9.1 (which I just updated to 9.2 in an attempt to get it to work). It shouldn't make a difference whether the document was created on a 32 bit or 64 bit computer. I tried saving the attachment but something converted it to a .doc format. When I tried to open it I got pages full of code (in WordPad) not a formatted page. Current documents saved in pdf open as they should as long as I open them from the document file. I don't know whether it is windows, windows mail or some other program that is responsible for this. Documents downloaded from websites work fine. Has anyone else encountered the same problem? How do you fix it?

HT1146 How do I print an email in Apple Mail without PDF attachments?

I received an email with PDF attachments. I want to print just the email without the attachments but they automatically load in the print file EVER AFTER I've converted them to be viewed as icons in the message window.
I searched online, call an Apple store and spoke to customer support who wanted to charge me a $19 fee for something possibly not even possible. In short, I haven't received a solution.
Can anybody help me? Ready to download an alternate mail app.
Thank you.

Opening it won't do you any harm. Just don't click any of the links.

Where do PDF attachments get saved to?

Hello,
I asked this question originally on ABAP-General forum but didn't receive a response so I thought maybe this forum is a better place to ask. Here we go:
Our developers use the FB02 transaction code and after entering a document number and company code they click on the "Services for Object" button>Create>Create Attachment and then attach a .PDF file to the invoice and save.
Now, I have a couple of questions regarding how this works in the background:
1) It looks like a reference of some sort for each of these attachments is saved in table(s) SRGBTBREL and/or SOFFCONT1. However, I cannot tell if it is a "link" to the actual attachment that is saved in these tables or is it the actual attachment itself, just converted to a raw binary data format -- stored in the database?
2) If the .PDF attachment(s) are saved in the database itself -- is it possible to NOT save them in the database directly but instead create a reference link for each attachment which would pull the actual .PDF file from a "file server"?
You see my problem is that I do not want my database to grow exponentially due to saving these .PDF attachments on the database server....is there a way to get around this and make sure that the .PDF files are kept on a file server -- not on the database?
Thank you in advance for your answers.

Hi Ugur,
To my knowledge in SAP there will one concept called DMS (Document Management Service)
if you can go through that you will get your answer. And if you dont want to overload your
system with document then have a third party system which manages the Enterprise Content Management (ECM)
like Open text (Previously it is know as IXOS).
Hope you got your answer.
Cheers!!

Pdf attachments cause mail to freeze

When I receive emails with single page pdf attachments, mail freezes while trying to show preview of the pdf. I then have to force quit mail.
These files aren't particularly large- the last one to freeze was 2.6 megabytes. This is a new and powerful computer, why cant a simple thing like a pdf be previewed in mail without crashing?

Mail is very glitchy in mountain lion. I own the same laptop and I am very frustrated as well.

Mail with PDF attachments sent, not stored in Sent

IMAP account, Sent folder configured to point to server's sent mail folder. "Windows friendly attachments" selected.
If I send a message with multiple PDF attachments, the message will be received, but it won't be written to the Sent folder.
I can't afford to lose the archive copy of these messages, so I have adopted the habit of bcc'ing myself, but it's a drag.
Any thoughts?

I don't think this is a Mail issue, I think it's to do with the receiving ISP and the reason the mail can't be delivered. For example, if the address does not exist the mail will probably bounce back straight away but if the recipient's mail box is full then the server may try later and if it's been emptied, the mail will go through - if not, after a few tries it will bounce. Hence the delay.
