They are not receiving attachments

Hello there, every time I compose a message in Mac Mail, I do two things to attach a file, I drag it in to the message directly and it displays properly, and then I use the attach button to attach the file manually. I always CC myself on these emails and the attachments NEVER attach. The files that I commonly attach are PDFs and JPGs. What is the problem? I have "send windows friendly attachments" selected or checked, but it seems like if I'm using both methods to attach, something should be coming through, there are simply no attachments!

still doesnt work

Windows users are not receiving attachments sent out of Mail

I am a consultant. I use Mail in Snow Leopard. Software is up to date.
Our business uses Microsoft Exchange Server 2003. All other consultants in the company are using Windows. In Mail I connect via IMAP. It has worked flawlessly until recently.
Recently, my corporate clients (various clients not related to one another nor using the same email server) have complained that they are not receiving my email attachments. It is not universal. It is inconsistent, even with the same client. Sometimes the attachments are there and sometimes not.
I have verified two things. 1) That the attachments are present in the emails in my outbox. 2) That the emails leave our server with the attachment (I accomplished this by contacting our Microsoft Exchange service provider and giving them examples, which they tracked down and verified that the emails left them with the attachments.).
Our service provider suggested that Mail is adding something to the email that is causing Outlook (the common denominator is that the clients receiving the emails are all on Outlook) to strip the attachment. Or, the antivirus is stripping it. Something about the Mail email is causing Outlook or some antivirus software to strip the attachments.
Has anyone else encountered this? Is there something that can be done?
Right now I've had to go to Thunderbird in order for my attachments to be received. I'd rather stay with Mac all the way, but I cannot trust that my clients will receive attachments.
I'm hoping that when our company changes to MS Exchange Server 2007, that the problem will go away, since Mail can interface with the 2007 version directly. But, until then, I would really like to stick with Mail, if I can find a work around.
Thanks.
Matt

I am now having exactly the same problem. But here is a new wrinkle. ALL the persons having the problem you describe - that attachments are stripped off - are using cox.net as their e-mail provider. I am not saying that all cox.net mail users are having the problem, but those having the problem are among the cox.net e-mail users. None of my recipients using aol.com, yahoo.com, gmail.com, verizon.net, zona.net, etc. are having any problems. Only some of the cox.net e-mail users.
I suspect but have not checked that they are all PC users (I use a Mac with Mail) and, now that I have become aware of this thread, I will check if they use Outlook.
It started a few months ago. I had no problems before and now this, with the same people. Obviously something must have changed but what?
Please let me know if you have found anything more about this - or even a solution? :-)

I am sending emails and they are not getting recieved by anyone. It says it has been sent in the sent folder

For the last 2 days. I have been sending emails out.
I have found out that people are complaining they are not receiving my emails.
They do show in the sent folder so I am not sure what to do next.
Please help.

Is it possible all your messages are being put into the recipients' Spam folders? Certain spam filters seem to like picking on we who send email using Thunderbird.

I've verified with mutiple users and they are not receiving my messages with photos attached

A brief and probably non-helpful answer: I know of no way to eliminate your large amount of duplicates other than by repetitive, tedious manual effort.
*There has got to be a simpler way.*
I hope you're right, but I don't think there is a simpler way.
BACKUP: It also appears that the only way I can back up the catalog is to shut down LR. Really?!
Yes, really

HT2736 recipients are not receiving gifted music

I've gifted music, but they are not receiving it?

Do the recipients have access to the folios?

Some clients are not receiving my mail attachments.

Some clients are not receiving my mail attachments. Other recipients of the same email DO receive these attachments. It doesn't matter whether it is a jpg, pdf, doc, or other. Sending from gmail or entourage works, only sending from apple mail is a problem. This has been an ongoing problem for me in Lion and Snow Leopard. I'm new to this forum, so not sure I'm posting in the right area, but I've searched for an answer and can't find anything. Do I need a plug-in or something? I like my apple mail and don't want to switch, but this is a real problem for me. Help, please!

We have the same problem in Snow Leopard, so the problem isn't new. I've been researching this for a while now. Based on what I've read in a whole load of discussions it seems it's an issue in the way Outlook reads the e-mails send by Apple Mail. I've no idea of the technicalities of this but one obvious difference is that Mail's default formatting is Rich Text and Outlook's is HTML, but what do I know.
We've done variuos test with our PC based clients but with no success: Send as Icon; Window's friendly attachement; Mail Attachement Iconiser, etc. Nothing gets rid of the problem entirely. We're a Mac based Public Relations agency and we send image to the media all of the time...and we have no guarantees that they are getting through.
It's frustrating that Mail doesn't have an option, as it does for plain text, to send in an outlook friendly way. To me it's a huge problem and if Apple isn't going to sort it, given that Outlook is the choice of Enterprise and 95% of our clients, then we're going to have to spend thousands and switch to Outlook. Apple have gone to great pains to promote cross-compatibility with PC's and perhaps this is one little example of where they could try harder.
Mail has not had much obvious love and attention for a while and if there's an Apple employee looking in on this thread, perhaps it's time to love it up, give it a few more bells and whistles (without over-complicating of course) and make it sing with Outlook.
My last attenpt is to try Thunderbird as a default mail client; I'm told it doesn't suffer from the same PC compatibility issues.

That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

Why is my mail saying it is sending and receiving many emails but they are not there?

why is my mail saying it is sending and receiving many emails but they are not there?

The progress bar reports (for example) that 5 messages are being sent when I only sent one, etc. etc.
1 goes to the intended recipient
2 goes to the NSA
3 goes to GCHQ
4 goes to MSS (China)
5 goes to your Sent mailbox

It seems that I can't receive emails from certain sites. They are not on the blocked list. How do I fix this?

No matter what I do I can't receive emails such as newsletters from certain companies. I have looked several times on the blocked list and they are not there. It happened after my computer tech changed me to FireFox. How can I fix this?

Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, see this forum for support.

I am receiving e.mails for my gmail account on my ipad but they are not coming to my iPhone 4s

I am having trouble completely emptying my trash on my mac. It says items are in use, but they are not. How do I force these items to be removed?

I have copied dvds that I own, for backup copies, onto the desktop of my macbook. Then I've placed a copy into iTunes for viewing later. Once the copy is over in iTunes, I delete the copy of the movie on the desktop and it goes to the trash. I do this because 1) I don't want to clutter up the desktop and 2) I don't want multiple copies of the movies on my hard drive. When I go to empty the trash, it says these items are in use and will not remove them from trash. Why is that? They are not in use as far as I know. How do I force them to be removed from trash?

I had a similar problem. I think it was caused by deleting an app while it was still running. I should have shut the app down before deleting freom the applications folder. When I tried to empty trash I received message:
"The operation can't be competed because the item something.app is in use."
Go to utilities, open a terminal, change directory to the hidden Trash folder and remove the offending item in use. Example:
cd ~/.Trash
sudo rm -rf item
Next time, maybe try quting iTunes before deleting and see if it makes any difference.

Another approach might be to use the iTunes folder named "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder.

ICal invites are not received by some people (I know why, but Apple won't fix it)

I switched to icloud a while back and have the maddening problem of SOME people not receiving invites, and have discovered what causes it (at least in my case):
If the user you are sending to has an itunes (or apple id) account with that email as the login (and that email is NOT an icloud email) they will never receive the iCal invite! Instead it gets routed to their (non setup) icloud account. If they start using icloud for their calendars with this same external email address as login, they will receive them there (directly on their calendar if it is setup). Apple refuses to forward it to their real email address, the one we are sending it to. I have reported it to Apple several times but they are not inclined to fix it, probably because they want to force external users to use icloud. This is mega frustrating. Many of my friends do not receive invites, forcing me to use Google calendar for events with those friends. I prefer the general interface and look of icloud/ical invites, but I need to be able to actually invite people!

ssuess wrote:
Not for me, but let me verify the following type scenario with you:
1. Your person to invite has a gmail address ([email protected])
2. That gmail address is their Apple ID/iTunes login name (this is the most important piece)
3. They may have some icloud service on (like note syncing) but do not use icloud calendaring or mail (or may have signed up for mail but never check it)
4. Your icloud/ical invite arrives properly in their gmail inbox (at [email protected])?
Is all the above true? For me, the above scenario results in no email being received at the address I sent it to (number 4), it gets routed/lost in icloud if that is their Apple ID login.
Like I said, I do not have the issue you have, all my invites are received regardless of the email provider and user ID's I just send to the correct address and that's it. Frankly if what you said was common the service would be useless, but it works for millions. The problem is at your end, not everybody's.
The login name is just a text string to iCloud, not an address.

I recently updated my iPhone 4 and my iPad to the iOS 7.0.2 and now I am having lots of trouble with messaging. I used to be able to send or receive iMessages from other people with iPhones. Or iPads on either of my devises and if the other user was not connected to a wifi connection it would automatically try to send the message as a text message. Now if I send a message to an iPhone user from my phone and they are not connected to wifi, the message just sits there in limbo, and doesn't notify my that it wasn't sent. I have to manually tap the message and request to send it as a text message, I also can no longer receive picture messages from android phones, and relies to my messages from iPhone users are going to my iPad and not to my phone. Help!!!!

Try the following:
Go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > disable
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
let it do it's thing and reset.
Then go to Settings > Messages > iMessages > enable
You'll then have to go back to your Wifi and re-enter your router credentials.

SahrePoint 2013 Server & Project Server 2013 - Notifications and reminders are not received by certain users

Dears,
We have recently implemented MS EPM 2013 where we started to face some strange behavior with the standard alerts and reminders sent from the system.
Minor number of the users (with different levels of privileges from administrators to team members) are receiving emails and alerts normally (either when they are assigned on project schedule tasks or SharePoint list items alerts) without any issues however
the. on the other hand the other majority number of resources are not receiving any kind of alerts from the system (neither from Project Server Nor from SharePoint).
knowing that, all the resources/users have their emails configured properly, and their other attributes are almost the same for all users. all the emails are stored on the same exchange server.
Anyone can help on this please.
Appreciate your cooperation.
Ibrahim Al-Masri Technology Manager at MethodCorp

Thanks Dinesh,
Actually the users have this global permissions configured for them and yet they weren't receiving emails.
We Just could solve this puzzle, all what we needed to do is to configure the
RBS for the majority for the users who weren't receiving emails.
Welcome to EPM 2013 UN-unannounced changes.
