View attachments as icons

I have a simply question. What can i do for viewing attachments in mail as icons?
I have the same in panther and in tiger. Deactivating the preference seems haven't any effect. Can anyone help me?
PowerMac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

All image type and smaller PDF attachments (1-2 pages) appear inline or viewed in place within the body of the message by default when attached to a message which cannot be turned off.
If preferred, you can control-click on the viewed in place attachment and select View as Icon.
Regardless, such attachments are sent as true attachments to the message and depending on the recipient's email client and available preference settings, the attachments may appear inline or viewed in place when the message is opened (such as the Mail.app) or as attached files which must be opened separately for which we have no control over.
The preference pane you are referring to is for HTML received that contains embedded images and/or objects that must be downloaded from a remote server to be viewed and you do not want to automatically render all HTML received. This has no effect on receiving image/picture files that are attached to a message.

Mac Mail - Being able to set attachments as Icons by default.

Hello All,
Garoolgan again with yet another little problem with the Mac Software.
I've rung Mac support and been told that this is impossible to do.
I send a lot of attachments with my Mac Mails.
If I click right on the attachment to set it to 'View as an Icon" then "save" the email as a draft and open it again the image or document comes up, not the icon. In the same way the person receiving the email finds a whole "pile" of files at the bottom instead of a neat list of icons.
Thanks for Reading..... and I hope those Mac programmers read these messages too!
Best wishes to all
Garoolgan

Icons can be cut and pasted onto almost any item on the Macintosh. As for how to apply them, here is the most straight forward way:
On your desktop, select the icon you would like to use
Select “Get Info” (command-I) from the File Menu for that icon
Click on the icon in the upper left of the window
Choose “Copy” (command-C) from the Edit menu
Close the window
Select the file/folder to which you want to apply that icon
Select “Get Info” (File menu) for that icon
Click on the icon in the upper left of the window
Select “Paste” (command-V) from the Edit Menu
You’re done!
Please keep in mind that certain icons such as the Finder icon or the Trash Can icon can only be changed with helper apps like our very own CandyBar utility. Please visit the CandyBar homepage at Panic.com to learn more.

Show mail attachments as icons

How to permanently show mail attachments as icons?

There is no permanent way to do this. Control-click lets you adjust it for the message in view, when acting upon the inline attachment image file.

View attachments in list view, similar to the save dropdown

I've searched for this, but it doesn't seem anyone has had this specific request yet...
I want to view attachments I receive in list view, with small icons so I can quickly reference files by name rather than an icon with no visual representation and a truncated filename. Similar to how the flyout 'save' menu represents the files. I would use the save list, but I want to open the file from mail quickly rather than saving it and then opening it from finder.
See the example of what my messy attachments look like:
http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/102172/cluttered.png
I just downloaded Mail Attachment Iconizer, but it's worthless. It shows the same icon view with full, long filenames which actually makes it harder to find what I'm looking for.
I need something that allows list view. I fear I might have to go back to T'bird. :/

I tried the rollover trick, and it apparently only works when you rollover the attachments at the bottom on the email. It would be nice if that worked at the top of the email when I click the little black attachment triangle. Scrolling to the bottom of the email to hover over links isn't convenient.
Also, the hover-over filename isn't quickly digestible because it gives you additional superfluous information such as downloaded status, mime type and "Control click for menu". See screenshot:
http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/102172/additional-info.png
The QuickLook option isn't what I want because I need to find things by filename, often from a large batch of attachments which I have never seen before, so seeing them as thumbnails doesn't really help.
So, from those suggestions I guess the unfortunate answer is Mail.app doesn't have a simple filename view and I have to use something else.
...Off to the OSX Feedback page to make a suggestion...

Hi Raghavendar,
Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
Add-Ins.
2. Please take one of the following actions:
If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
Disabled Items, and then click Go.
b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
Add-ins dialog box.
The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.
Thanks,
Winnie Liang

Is it possible to view attachments in calendar?

Is it possible to view attachments on an iphone when using the calendar?

As far as I know, not possible. You can always install an older Mac OS X on your Mac using a separate partition. See this tip:

Why can I no longer seemingly have the "option" in Yahoo Mail, to "View" attachments, and not just "download" them in my incoming emails?

When I use IE browser to open my YAHOO EMAIL "classic" or "New" account, and I open an "inbox email", I have the option of "viewing" attachments, or "downloading" attachments.
I used to have that "dual" option, seemingly, using Firefox Browser, which I prefer to use.
Now, when I open my "Classic" or "New" Yahoo Email Account/s, with Firefox Browser, I no longer have the option, seemingly, to "VIEW" the attachments, but only the option to "Download" them, which I prefer not to do.
I have tried this using the older version 3.6 and the new version 9 of Firefox with the same results. No "Dual Attachment Viewing/Downloading" option in Yahoo Mail anymore in either the "Classic" or "New" versions of Yahoo Mail.
Can I correct this or change this back to the older "DUAL" OPTION of "Viewing" and/or "Downloading" attachments...or is this just the way the New FireFox Browser works.?
This is only happening to me with YAHOO.COM Email Accounts.

Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.

How do I view attachments in gmail

Attachments used to come up in their own window. Suddenly they started being treated like a downloaded file and there was an arrow on the toolbar. I did not like this method of viewing attachments so I deleted the arrow. Now the attachments go directly to my download file and I have to go there to read the file.
How do I get back to my original way of viewing attachments?

# Click the menu button ([[Image:New Fx Menu]]) and choose Customize.
# Click "Restore Default"
#Click the menu button again to exit
#Now you should see the arrow again
To open the attachments, click on the arrow then the name of the file.
Or click on the arrow, then "Show All Downloads"
I don't think there is a setting to open downloads in a new window as it was before.

Generic Object Services - View Attachments disabled for non admin user

Hi,
I am using SAP 4.7 and the attachments created using table TOA01 - archive link are visible to an administrator user through Generic Object Services toolbox while same View Attachments option appears disabled for other non admin users.
Kindly help !

Hi Neha,
I'm sorry I don't have answer to your question but I wonder if you could help me.
I'm looking at OSS note 530792 to configure GOS 'create attachment' option to copy the attachments to the archive server. currently, these are written to the SAP office tables SOC3, SOFFCONT1, etc and I want to use the archivelink and SAPHTTP and copy to the archive storage.
Have you successfully managed to configure your system since you mentioned TOA01?
In the same GOS menu I've activated the 'Business document' option and can copy these to the archive server by correctly configuring OAC2 and OAC3.
I'll really appreciate of you could please share your knowledge.
Thanks.

Sorry ... " set my logo in my sig....."

Folders in Icon view with overlapping icons (vertically)

I have folders with icon view and the icons move too close together vertically, but not horizontally. This is new behavior. I am using 10.6.7 and have already tried trashing finder prefs. It doesn't seem to be related to the slider for icon size. or even the view preferences for grid spacing. Somehow the spacing from left to right is fine, but up and down is too close. I don't want to sort them by name because I documents that are in groups of 3; an original Quark XPress document, and then two versions of it saved in PDF format; one with answers and one without (these are tests and quizzes for math classes.) I am still using an old version of Quark XPress (6.5.2) because newer versions can no longer use the PICT file format, which my equation program uses. Version 6.5.2 has become increasingly unstable as system software evolves, so converting into PDF format has allowed me to keep my old files in a usable form. I really like having these files in a folder with "icon" view so I can find what I need quickly.

I have the views set to "Arrange by" "None". This used to allow me to place the icons wherever I liked and they would stay put; I've done this for years. Recently the spacing became a problem only in the "up and down" aspect, not the "side to side" spacing. When I choose any of the other choices, I can't get the various files to appear the way I really prefer.
For what is is worth; once I discover a folder where they spacing has gone crazy; I can select all icons below the top row and lower them a bit, then all of the icons below my new "top row" and lower them, and so on, and the folder will look fine for a few days, Then,it will suddenly exhibit this strange compacting of only the vertical spacing.

Cannot view attachments

I cannot view attachments sent thru an email nor can I view anything sent from store advertisements. When the Gap sends me an email and I open the email I cannot view the pictures or advertisement's. The picture looks like it would if it were sent to my trash. I am an old iPhone user.
Thanks.

Glad that worked, android is a learning curve we all get those moments.

Email attachments as icons

Is this the only real solution for email attachments as icons: download and install the attachment tamer plug-in: http://lokiware.info/Attachment-Tamer

If you would rather not see the attachment preview by default when you add attachements to your Mail documents:
Launch Terminal, and then type or paste the following command after the prompt:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool yes
Once you do that, quit Mail and relaunch it, or just start it up if it wasn’t running already. Now, when you look at messages with attachments, you’ll just see an icon. Double click on it as per usual to bring it up in the associated application, like Preview or Word.
To change it back to the way it was, simply run the following command:
defaults write com.apple.mail DisableInlineAttachmentViewing -bool no
When you relaunch Mail again, you’ll see attachments with their visual previews again.

Is normal when i connect to wifi i can't view the bb icon whoever that i can browser the internet normally

is normal when i connect to wifi i can't view the bb icon whoever that i can browser the internet normally, i have bb curve 9360

Hi and Welcome to the Community!!
It might be normal...I've heard (while rare) of some carriers preventing their BB users from using BB-proprietary services via WiFi. But, with a strong carrier network signal (e.g., not WiFi), I do suggest the following steps, in order, even if they seem redundant to what you have already tried (steps 1 and 2 each should result in a message coming to your BB...please wait for that before proceeding to the next step):
1) Register HRT
KB00510 How to register a BlackBerry smartphone with the wireless network
Please wait for one "registration" message to arrive to your Messages app
2) Resend Service Books
KB02830 Send the service books for the BlackBerry Internet Service
Please wait for "Activation" Messages, one per already configured email account, to arrive in your Messages. If you have no already configured email accounts, please wait 1 hour.
3) Batt Pull Reboot
With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Hopefully that will get things going again for you! If not, then you should contact your mobile service provider for formal support.
Good luck!
