TS3276 Attaching files in Mac Mail

When I go to attach a file from within a folder, it doesn't let me. It actually just attaches the whole folder. It used to ask to open the folder, but now it just say choose file. Any help would be appreciated.

When you choose this attachment selection view, you must single click the folder to see the individual file contents appear in the next panel. Then highlight and choose the individual file you want to attach. If you only highlight and choose the folder, or double-click the folder icon, while in this view style, then only the folder will be attached.
I normally use this attachment view style as double-clicking any folder opens the folder and allows you to highlight and choose individual files for attachment.

Cannot attach files to Mac Mail

Hello,
I have a new Mac mini running 10.8.4. I am transitioning from a Windows PC. I have setup Mac Mail v 6.5 (1508) against Gmail for both my wife and I on separate Mac user accounts. Both of us see the same behavior from both of our accounts. If I try to attach an image through the attachment button, then nothing happens. Nothing gets attached. If I drag and drop the image, then double click on it I get the following error: "The file xyz.jpg could not be opened because it is empty." Location does not seem to matter. I have also tried word & excel docs and when opened they are just empty. PDFs behave like images. All my files where originally on my Windows PC and migrated to the mac. Here are some entries in syslog:

Curious, I see the following message repeating constantly in syslog. Probably unrelated, but here it is anyway:

Thanks for your help,

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Attaching files crashes Mac Mail and Thunderbird

Just upgraded from Mountain Lion to Mavericks 10.9.3 on a 2012 Mac Mini 4 core. When attempting to add an attachment to an email, both Mac Mail and Thunderbird start with the spinning beachball and never recover. Force Quit is the only option. Even after that, the Finder has strange screen artifacts left over from Mail (attach file dialog box) and Finder must be relaunched as well.
Dragging and dropping files works okay with Mac Mail. This option does not exist when using Thunderbird, so no workaround available for that App. Also, Mac Mail only gets stuck when attempting to attach files on the desktop. Files from other locations attach OK.
Already tried Repair Permissions, Repair Disk, Reinstalled Mavericks with no change. For now, I have gone back to Mountain Lion since this is a deal breaker, even though everything else seems to work ok (except for the occasional brief spinning beach ball).

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal 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 Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

Windows .jpeg attachment is received as windat.file in Mac mail

Is there a setting I need to change so that .jpeg attachments sent from Windows are not received as win.dat files in Mac Mail?

Are you sending the files, sbertochi?
If so, there's some older advice on this page:
http://www.modemhelp.net/newsletter/email/winmaildat.shtml
If that doesn't seem applicable to your setup, what application (and version of the application) are you using to send the emails with the troublesome jpegs?

Sending mail with attachment fails on MAC Mail and WRP400.

Sending mail with attachment fails on MAC Mail and WRP400.
We have hundreds of WRP400 connected with Mac (Machintosh) computers. No special configurations are applied (no virtual server or DMZ). Web navigation, P2P programs and sending mail without attachment work right.
The problem is the impossibility to send mails with medium or big size files attachment from MAC Mail.
If we use Windows PCs or a different linksys routers (eg. WRT54G) the problem not happens.
We have upgraded WRP400 firmware version from 1.00.06 to 2.00.05 but the result is the same. Sending mail with attachment using Mac fails.
We tried to configure WRP400 with DMZ to a particular MAC. We tried to configure Virtual server on tcp 25 port of a MAC. The result is always the same.
This is a WRP400 bug? Windows PCs work right. MAC and MAC mail works right with other linksys router.
We need help. Thanks.

The problem was fixed since beta firmware 2.00.11.
I think that this issue was caused from a bug that decrease upload bitrate of WRP400 after some days of activity.
See more details on Cisco forum under title "WRP400 stops responding after browsing certain websites".
Thanks.

How can I convert an outlook pst file to mac mail without using a windows based computer

I recently bought the new iMac as my older Windows based computer crashed with a bad motherboard. I have been trying to find a way to convert Outlook 2007 pst files to Mac Mail without the need to use a Windows based computer since all I have now is a Mac. I have the copies of the pst files on my Mac, so I am looking for the most efficient way to convert them to the format that I can then open them in the Mac Mail. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - thanks for the instructions but where do you get the option for Quicktime. If I do File - Export I only get the options for File name, place and size but no option that allows to select quicktime:-(
Have you got any more tips?

Safari 5.0 freezes after attaching files in Yahoo Mail

Since upgrading to Safari 5, I cannot use Yahoo mail after attaching a file to a message. The program acts like there is a dialog box open and it is waiting for a choice to be made, but there is no dialog box.

HI,
BrowserPlus is causing problems when attaching files to Yahoo mail. It's not compatible with Safari 5.

Problem for PCs recieving attached SWF files from Mac Mail 2.1.3

Hi All,
When I send this file from my mac mail 2.1.3 (753.1) with a SWF (flash animation) attachment the file wont open on the PC client mail. Instead when I force the unknown attachment to open it says the below with a string of letters.
--Apple-Mail-37--496662089
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-Type: application/applefile;
name=daft3.swf
Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=daft3.swf

Content-Disposition: attachment;

Try creating an archive of the SWF file (.zip) and email that instead. But the recipient needs to have an application on their PeeCee that will open SWF files; Outlook or Outlook Express will not do that.

Problems attaching files to e-mails

After installing Lyon, from my wife's user she can't attach files to an e-mail. The window opens but only shows folders and the folders can not be opened. I can do it from my user. What could be happening?

This could be a hardware problem, or it could be software problem.
First... Get a full backup of your disks by booting from the DVD and using Disk Utility to copy the data to an external storage device, on the off change the disk or memory or server is failing; don't lose ground here, and try to avoid losing data. Always, always, always have a good backup before you start hardware or software repairs.
As Christoph recommends, do check the logs. Rather than looking at the directories directly, I'd suggest doing this using the Console.app tool (as that's easier than rummaging in /var/log, if you're not already comfortable in the command shell) and see if there are any relevant errors being reported.
It appears this box is critical, and doesn't have a backup, or spare parts, or local available support. I'd expect there are folks in the Denver area that can visit the site and sort out the hardware or software trigger, if your coworkers aren't in a position to assist here.
If the box is under AppleCare, I'd plan for a trip to get the box looked at and potentially repaired.
If the box is not under AppleCare, I'd look for a spare disk. Or better (but more expensive), acquire (or bring along?) a spare Mac Mini (Server?) and probably either used or off eBay or such, as you'll want to have a spare for any potential hardware failure. (It's better to have two of the same, and newer Mac Mini (Server?) boxes will arrive with (and require) Lion (Server?) and not 10.6.8.
Usual path for a recovery here is an external backup (via booting the DVD and using Disk Utility to get that copy, and preferably a couple of external, full, current, copies of the data) and using the "migrate" option after a wipe and reinstallation, to bring a copy of the disk data back in.

Lion running Safari 5.1 cannot attach files in Yahoo Mail

I've seen a bunch of various threads on this over years, but none have answered it for my situation.
In this case clicking the "Attach" button in Yahoo Mail does absolutely nothing. No freezes or crashes - it just will not invoke a file tree to pick the attachment from.
I just migrated over frrom a 2009 Mini to a 2011 Mini. The exact same browser version running in Snow on the old Mini was working perfectly 2 days ago.
Thoughts?

Thanks Carolyn - Done as per your suggestion!
I'm pretty sure this is something I couldn't do in Snow? (I''ve only been using Lion for a few days now). - And/or this is something Yahoo only started to allow recently - before, in the old days POP Mail was an add on Pay feature. IMAP is new(ish) for them. Maybe this is something I never looked for either (old dog/new tricks)
Speaking of Lion - looking to make sure the Yahoo messages were copying off of the Yahoo servers I looked for them in - Home/Library/Mail - but that's hidden in Lion now. Go-> ~/Library reveals that it's all downloading fine.
FWIW - The "ATTACH" button started working again for me this morning without doing a single thing. No restart, didn't quit anything - left the Mac to sleep for 5 hours and tried again and it's working! Strange.

I can no longer attach files in Yahoo mail since upgrading to FireFox 4.0.1. I click the "attach" button and nothing happens - no file list to select from appears; nothing.

Since upgrading to Firefox 4.0.1 the "attach files" function in my Yahoo Mail account no longer functions. When I click the "attach files" button nothing happens - nothing. No file selection box opens, no error message appears, no pinwheel of death, nothing.
The "attach files" button is no longer 'hot' in FF 4.0.1 either = the "little hand" icon does not appear when I scroll over it. Other action buttons are still 'hot' ("attachments", "emoticons", "format", "hide bcc"etc.) - just not the "attach files" button.
The Yahoo Mail "attach files" function still works when I use my Safari browser, however. So, it appears to be a FF4.0.1 issue.

I am trying to import outlook .olm file to Mac Mail, it is not working

I am trying to switch my mail to Mac Mail I have 8 GB of data from Mac Outlook. It saves as .olm file I am trying to make this work???

Use the clients and temporary folders (mailboxes) on the mail server as a form of a conversion utility.
Launch whatever mail client can read whatever client-specific archive format containing the source mail messages, access the archives from that mail client, select and then move the messages from the archive to temporary folder(s) you've created on your mail server.
These "temporary" folders are used to avoid getting your archived mail mixed in with your current mail; you probably don't want to dump a hundred old messages into your current inbox, for instance.
Launch the target mail client, select the tempoary folder on the mail server, select-all the messages in the folder, and transfer (drag) the messages back from the server.
Using select ranges or seelct-all to select ranges of messages, you can transfer buckets of mail messages in bulk with a drag operation between folders.
Your transfers will be limited by the storage quota on your mail server, so use whichever mail server you have with the largest quotas as your "conversion" mail server.
