What's with inability to open attachments in my email on my iPad?

I am unable to see jpg attachments in my emails. It looks like a widespread issue with the device. Most of the support forum's comments do not have a fix it. Is Apple aware and care?

Since no one suggested much, here is what I do whenever the Mail app screws up. Seems to work every time. I hope it works for you.
Quit the Mail app like I describe below and then reset your iPad. No data will be lost when doing this.
Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. Try sending a new jpg file to yourself from a different device or computer and see if Mail can view it.

  • Why can't I open all my emails, open attachments or send photos on my ipad anymore

    Why can't I open all my emails, open attachments or send photos on my ipad anymore. Sometimes it takes awhile for an email to open, other times they open without any incident. I can't seem to be able to email any photos anymore.

    It sounds like you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them.
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files at all. You will need to Export the Pages '08 files to Word .doc/x or use Pages '09 to open the Pages '08 files and resave them.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 older Pages files can not be opened in previous Pages.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Can not open attachments on recieved emails

    Adobe does not allow me to open attachments recieved on emails.

    You mean company Adobe does not allow you to open attachments received on emails? Or is it a specific product you're using? Which one, which version (including minor), which platform/OS? Which mail client do you use? Is it Web-based (like gmail)? What is the exact manifestation of your problem? Are attachments that you're getting PDFs? Do you download them to your computer before you try to open them?

  • FF 12 does not open attachments for yahoo email

    FF recently updated and since then I have not been able to open attachments in yahoo email.
    I know it's FF because it does not happen in IE or chrome.
    I have used FF for years and it is my browser of choice. However if I can not address this issue I will have to pick another browser.

    #Go to Firefox > History > Clear recent history or (if no Firefox button is shown) go to Tools > Clear recent history.
    #Under "Time range to clear", select "Everything".
    #Now, click the arrow next to Details to toggle the Details list active.
    #From the details list, check ''Cache'' and ''Cookies'' and uncheck everything else.
    #Now click the ''Clear now'' button.
    Further information can be found in the [[Clear your cache, history and other personal information in Firefox]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

  • I can no longer open attachments in Yahoo email on the same email page without going out to the downloads section to view

    I used to be able to click on download file and the picture would open in the same screen. Now it downloads, but I need to go to the bottom of the screen, click on downloads, and then view the picture.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    Your above posted system details show outdated plugin(s) with known security and stability risks.
    *Shockwave Flash 9.0 r124
    Update the [[Flash]] plugin to the latest version.

  • Cannot open attachments with my firefox. my wife can with IE

    with firefox I cannot open attachments in my emails. I have been forwarding these emails to my wife's email. She is using internet explorer by yahoo through AT&t and then I have no trouble opening them on her email.

    hello jrhjmh, are you a yahoo mail user and does it work when you access yahoo mail through this link?: https://mail.yahoo.com/
    <sup>reference: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/971042</sup>
    I'm not sure as to what exactly is going on, but it looks like yahoo has changed something on their side that makes certain old urls/servers dysfunctional (you may be currently using those because you've bookmarked them before or through your history) - at least quite a number of other users have reported that...
    <br>so using the generic address https://mail.yahoo.com/ as a bookmark should lead you to the current & working url.

  • I can't access pdf attachments from my aol email on my ipad. i have downloaded adobe reader. what should i do?

    i can't accesspdf attachments from aol email on my ipad. i have donloaded adobe reader. what should i do?

    For Notes, if they are only on your phone I suggest you open them one by one and email them to your self so you have a backup of the text.  You can then go to Settings>iCloud and turn Notes to Off, then back On.  Then try creating a new note and see if it syncs properly to icloud.com and to your Mac.  If so, and if turning it notes off deleted the notes from your phone, you'll have to open each email and copy and paste the text into a new Note.
    My own experience with photo stream syncing photos to iPhoto is that it works great.  iPhoto automatically receives new photos from photo stream, and if configured to in iPhoto settings, it also saves a copy of the images to your iPhoto library so they are backed up.
