Viewing images in mail

I am currently using OS 10.2.8 (I do need to update) on my iBook. My problem is when using Mail: my incoming message with an image/picture, the image/picture is gray; then at the very bottom of the message after the gray sections the pictures appear. How can I get the images/pictures to appear where they should be (in the gray areas)?
Thank you for any help.

I was having this exact same problem when I switched my email program from MS Entourage to Apple Mail - none of my images were loading and I couldn't figure out why. I did everything you're supposed to do - repair permissions, rebuild the mail database, restart. Clicking on 'Load Images' made no difference. Having remote images checked in the preferences didn't make a difference either. It was driving me crazy, as all the images were still loading in Entourage. I have one imap account and two gmail accounts which I set up as imap instead of pop.
Then I came across this older post: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1994875
While I wasn't currently running Little Snitch, I do have NetBarrier running, and sure enough, after investigating I found that Port 443 (under Antivandal>Policy>Anti-Spyware>Stop List>Trusted Group) was set to Stop instead of Go for some reason, just for Apple Mail. Once I changed this, voila! All my images are now loading in all my mail accounts.
I would check any firewall program to see if Port 80 or 443 are closed off.

  • Cannot view images in Mail

    Hi All
    Strange one, but ever since moving to Snow Leopard on the MacBook Pro, images will not load in the viewing screen of Mail. I have fiddled with the 'Display Remote Messages in HTML' preference, and for a second when I tick/un-tick that box I can see the image in Mail, before it disappears again.
    I have never had this issue before...and the only new thing is moving to the MacBook Pro (via Time Machine) with Snow Leopard.
    Any help on this would be great, as with my business I am unable to view stats in vital emails.

    I've been having this issue since Tiger and cannot fix it (unless I reformat my mac and start from scratch). There has to be a corrupt preference file somewhere. Basically, no matter what option I choose in mail (either display remote images or no), the images NEVER display. It's something within my mail files as when I installed 10.6, I went with a fresh install, but manually copied over my mail and prefs.
    It's been an issue for 2+ years. I have an old thread on these boards that never got to the bottom of it then, either. Argh.

  • Cannot view images on emails

    Sometimes I get emails with images where I could view them ok without a problem. Recently I noticed that I see only a box with a question mark where an image should appear. I turned OFF and ON the "view images" under Mail settings to see if that would help but it didnt. I also repaired permissions on my hard drive but no cigar. I haven't installed anything in a long time so it can't be another software. The only thing I can remember doing is adding another email account to Mail but that was it. It was from a different provider. Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    I have the same problem. Since a while I can no longer view images in html emails even though it was set to do so in the prefs. I am considering ditching the plist file but am concerned that I will lose more valuable info (like account passwords and such). What does the pref file (plist) hold?

  • Problem with iPhone mail viewing images

    Hi,
    Since I upgraded to iOS 5 I cannot view images attached on any mail. I'm using GMAL as my mail account.
    Is anyone having the same problem?
    Thanks all.

    Chris,
    Thanks for the quick reply. I clearly changed the passcode in my iPhone and must have in my Mac.  They are both running off our private secure network (appears with the lock), so I must have saved the new passphrase. Can't think how it would work otherwise.
    I have logged into the Linkysys console and confirmed the passcode.  Problem is that when we enter this my husband's new iiPhone, it just doesn't work.  Comes back with a message that either the account or password is in error. I've checked the spelling on his account name, compared all setup data to my phone, and the only difference is the password, which I can't see.
    So, my problem is both mail on the iPhone and WiFi because my husband's phone won't switch over when he enters the house, as it should from 4G. Do you know of any of these programs that will allow you to "reveal" your actual pass phrases/words for an application?  I didn't realize that the characters might be of different lengths than the passwords themselves, which makes sense.  However, it doesn't explain why mine would work and my husband's would not.  I tried going into the Linsys console through my iPhone hoping that it would reveal what password I was using and it gave me the one for the network -- same one that will not verify on my husband's new phone.  Could anything else be interfering?  I've gotten his other mail accounts set up, but Comcast (being our ISP and his primary email account) is by far the most important and just not cooperating?
    Thanks,

  • How to view images from Pictures Folder using iPhoto?

    Right now when I click an image in the Pictures folder, the image is automatically opened using Preview. I want to view images directly from my Pictures folder, and have them open to iPhoto. Is that possible?
    I just want to be able to view/sort my photos by Folders rather than by Events, Titles or Photo dates. I can't seem to get them to sort by folders in iPhoto.

    Iphoto is a Photo Database designed to allow you to organise and manipulate you photos without recourse to your files.
    It's not an image viewer, it can only work with photos that have been imported to the database.
    I just want to be able to view/sort my photos by Folders rather than by Events,
    An Event is a folder of images with a fancy icon. You can organize your pics in iPhoto anyway you want, using Albums, folders, keywords and so on. It's far more flexible that using folders in the Finder.
    You can opt to organise the files yourself, rather than have iPhoto do it for you, but I don't recommend it.
    Simply go to iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck 'Copy Files to the iPhoto Library on Import'.
    Now iPhoto will not copy the files, but rather simply reference them on your HD. To do this it will create an alias in the Originals Folder that points to your file. It will still create a thumbnail and, if you modify the pics, a Modified version within the iPhoto Library Folder.
    However, you need to be aware of a number of potential pitfalls using this system.
    1. Import and deleting pics are more complex procedures
    2. You cannot move or rename the files on your system or iPhoto will lose track of them on systems prior to 10.5 and iPhoto 08. Even with the later versions issues can still arise if you move the referenced files to new volumes or between volumes.
    3. Most importantly, migrating to a new disk or computer can be much more complex.
    Always allowing for personal preference, I've yet to see a good reason to run iPhoto in referenced mode unless you're using two photo organisers.
    If disk space is an issue, you can run an entire iPhoto Library from an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    If you're concerned about accessing the files, There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
    You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.

  • How to enable images in Mail?

    I wanted to be able to view images in my email, but it seemed that I couldn't
    I have searched the forum - no answer to be found
    Apple Mail v 5.3 (1283) What I have is an oblong box containing a blue square with a question mark in it.
    I have gone thru every possible setting I can think of (including checking allow remote html images).
    The box in the message is not clickable, I don't know if the image is embedded in the message or remote html - I have no way of telling.
    Now I will answer - just in case what I found helps anyone else!

    You say you have the box checked
    You can always try the plug-in "Attachment Tamer" for more control. Free Trial.

  • Cannot view images in emails on Safari or Firefox

    I cannot view images in emails on multiple accounts from different sites (Gmail, AOL Mail, Hotmail) on Safari and Firefox on my Macbook.

    On another note, please refrain from posting unnecessary, excessive punctuation. It only clutters up your message, which isn't a good thing. Thanks!

  • How do view images attached to a trusted email?

    I recently upgraded to a laptop and Windows 7 and FireFox 4.0. Now I cannot view images attached to a trusted email from Hotmail. Is there some filter or firewall feature I can switch to allow these images to come through?

    To sent to a group you must be using Apple Mail - set in the iPhoto preferences
    You can send it to yourselft and then forward to the group

  • Scrolling to view image attachments!

    I just upgraded to Tiger, and noticed that in Mail when I get an email with an image attachment, I have to scroll up, down, left or right to view the entire thing.
    If I remember correctly, in Panther it would scale the image to fit in the window. This is very annoying being that I must view images sent in emails all day long! Please help! Thanks.
    G5   Mac OS X (10.4.9)   Mail

    Hi Mike,
    Welcome to the Discussions.
    The scaling of images that are true attachments works the same in Tiger (Mail 2.x) as it did in Panther (Mail 1.3.x). There may be differences where images in the emails you receive are embedded in HTML. These are the only images I have seen behave to not scale.
    To check for the presence of HTML, open one of these messages, click on View in the Menubar, place the cursor on Message and choose Raw Source. This will show you how much HTML is present.
    Also, do these messages have the Slideshow button showing in the last line of the Headers?
    More info, please.

  • Not able to view images in gallery, when they are ...

    Hi,
    The file explorer was showing two default images folder and I was unable to delete one of them as I was unable to view images via gallery. Then i installed X-plore and deleted one of the images folder. Now, when I click images and select memory card as storage space, I cannot view them via gallery and view them only via X-plore. Please suggest how can I correct this issue.

    Maybe I am stupid but if you delete the imagefolder, it will be gone. You can set your default imagefolder: goto Media-> Camera-> Settings-> Use Memory-> Card. You can also backup your card to PC, reformat the card in your phone, because it makes default maps for images, video, audio,.........and then copy your images back to the specific folder.

  • Firefox saves images to wrong location, but only when using "View Image"

    For a while, I have had the problem above. I can save images just fine if I don't use the "view image" function first, with the images going to the intended folders.
    Just to clarify, unlike some of similar problems I have seen described here, I am perfectly happy with Firefox remembering where I wish my pictures to go, on a site to site, or model to model (within the same site) basis.
    The problem lies in that if I use the "view image" function, either in a new tab, or in the existing one, Firefox will often prompt me to save in a random folder where I have previously saved a picture. It will even suggest folders that I have not accessed for days.
    Example:
    I save image A to folder A, by right clicking the image and selecting "save image as".
    I then (immediately after this), right click image A again, select "view image", then right click the resulting picture, and select "save image as". Now there is a fine chance that it want me to save the image to some other (previously used) image folder, even if I have not used the folder for a while, and even though I have just saved the same image to folder A.
    This problem persists with multiple image file types, on multiple sites (I just tried it with someones avatar in this forum, and it wanted me to put it with my holiday pictures from 3 weeks ago).
    I appreciate any assistance you can give - jinxie
    FYI; If I "one-click" a file (like an mp4) to download it, it goes to my main / default download folder as normal.

    This is because Firefox will track where you have saved images or other files from the website domain. Then whenever you select to save the file to your computer, Firefox will start the Save As wizard in the latest folder that you have used last time.
    Here is an example:<br>
    If you save an image from the domain <code>123.com</code> into the folder <code>123</code> it will save there. Then you save an image from the domain <code>456.com</code> to the folder <code>456</code>. Next you save a different image from the domain <code>123.com</code>. The save as wizard will assume that you want to save it with the other image from that domain and will automatically start in the <code>123</code> folder.<br>
    This can make saving files faster and more organized, however not everyone wants this feature enabled.
    To disable this feature you can do the following:
    #Go to <code>about:config</code> in Firefox
    #Locate the <code>browser.download.lastDir.savePerSite</code> string
    #Change the value to <code>false</code>
    This should fix the issue, but please report back if it doesn't.
