When i get an email with an attachment file it always get saved. Is there a way to not automatically save the attachment?

When I get an email with a file attachment it is automatically saved to the hard drive. Is there a way to stop that from happening?

To change that setting go to Mail>Preferences>Accounts>"Advanced" box over in the upper right side of the window>in the line below that that says "Keep Copies of Messages for Offline Viewing:",click on the drop down arrows at the right end of that box just below it and select the phrase "All Messages, but Not Attachments".  It looks like this:

    If photos are saved they go to the Camera Roll in the Photos App.

    I've sent psd files to various people without issues, however you might want to try something like www.filedropper.com to make sure it's not that they can't open your version of psd file.
    You may also want to zip the file using the built in archiving software, simply right click (or control click) the file and choose Compress ....,  then you can email it to the person as a compressed archive.  That should preserve all the aspects of the file properly without any modifications.

    I had thought this situation was solved but it just got worse. In addition to being without service for several days I am now being charged  a cancellation fee for a broadband service that BT disconnected in error. BT Vision was also terminated by BT but the set up charges are still in place. Does anyone know who the relevant Ombudsman is? I called BT from America on Friday - for an hour - while someone called Aruj sorted out why there is an order 'in progress' that I didn't initiate; why I have fees relating to a problem created by BT and why there are references to a house move that didn't take place and a BT Vision service I no longer have but didn't cancel myself. He assured me it would be rectified and my bill would be reduced by 139 pounds and we would get confirmation of this later that day. I asked him what chance there was that this would not actually happen - he said no chance at all; my new bill would be 23.50.
    There was no text message. An online chat person today told me there had been a fee reduction request which had been declined and there was nothing else he could help me with as he dealt only with broadband. But he would get BT Vision to email me. They always seem so helpful.............
    I'm sure I'm listed somewhere as 'a problem', there's no other explanation for why I get the runaround

  • I have a Airport Express I use primarily for AirPlay with my iPhone 4 (iOS6.1.3). Is there a way to set AirPlay as the default audio when connected to wifi?

    At the moment, when I re-connect to wifi (come home), I must select AirPlay as the desired audio.
    I know this is managble, but it would work a lot more easily if it was possible to select a default for AirPlay, or iPhone.

    I would suggest that you perform a "soft" reset on the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) that you just got from eBay. This type of reset will temporarily (5 minutes) disable both the base station and wireless security passwords so that you can access it with the AIrPort Utility to make the necessary changes.

  • When I logged on to Firefox, I found my outlook inbox empty. Is there a way to recover all of the emails that were lost?

    I had e-mails that I was saving, but are now gone. I wonder if there was malware or a virus that did it. Can you help?

  • Bought computers with motion and final cut on it. Is there any way to to upgrade without the password?

    Bought computer with software on the computer don't have password. Is there anyway to upgrade?

    Probably one of those craigslist ads.
    Guys take a computer, pack it full with stolen software, and then charge more than the computer is worth.
    But: no upgrades, no support. And you'll never know if there's not some malware, spyware somewhere.
    I wouldn't want to work with such software.
    It's really the best to wipe the drive, and only use your own software. Charge it under "experience".
    And it's only $50...

    The installer is over 5Gb's and could take many hours to download.
    Check the download status in the App Store application.

  • When I send an email with an attachment larger than 1 MB in iMail, the email takes forever to be sent.

    When I send an email with an attachment larger than 1 MB from iMail, the email gets suck in the sent folder.  This happens no matter if I am using wireless or using an ethernet connection. 

    Many email programs, including Mail, will send data up to a certain size.
    The good new - there are some solutions. You can compress the file and make the email much faster to send; you can download a free application like Compress, which also allows you to uncompress. Or, you can send your email via your webmail connection (your ISP, like ATT); if you manage your email through your desktop computer, the email should be sent just fine.
    Apple Mail is designed for smaller documents, well under 1mb.

  • When I receive an email with an attachment I am unable to read the attachment. I contact AT&T and they say the problem is with Firefox.

    when I receive an email with an attachment and download it I get a message stating that the attachment can not be read for various reasons. My provider has tried to help but unable, they stated it is the problem with Firefox. I have updated Adobe reader several times with no luck. All of my working friends are able to download and read the same attachments but not me. I am the only one with Firefox, so I can say it is Firefox that causing the problem. HELP

    If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
    If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...

    This one will create the form, database and send out the emails...

    The alternative is to use a marketing service if your business can justify the cost. Their templates are tested in all the common email clients...

  • Can I get Quick time video on iPad 2? Specifically, when I receive an email with quicktime on it, it will not play on the iPad.

    Can I get Quick time video on iPad 2? Specifically, when I receive an email with quicktime on it, it will not play on the iPad.

    Hello.  I have AV player hd.  When I touch and hold the Quicktime icon that is in a received mail message, a prompt comes up "Open in AVPlayerHD".  I click on that and a black screen opens up with the following on it:
    1--A red line at the top with a short white slider button on the right hand side.  There is a time listed at each end of the red line that says 00:00
    2--On the left hand side of the screen, near the middle, there are 4 icons, a colored 'x', a dialogue icon, a circular arrow and an 'i' in a circle.
    3--On the right hand side there is a + and a - sign with '1.00x' in the middle of the two.
    4--At the bottom of the black screen is a play icon plus forward and fast forward icons.
    When I press the play icon it changes to a stop icon.
    So, even though I have AV player I cannot play this Quicktime slideshow.
    Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.

  • When I get an email with an HTML it does not show up and I get the following message: There are no parts that can be displayed inline.

    When I receive an email with and HTML included I get the following message: "There are no parts that can be displayed inline", but no document to open.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == a month ago

    I don't know. I don't have access to Iquest, and some searching on google for ''Iquest webmail "There are no parts that can be displayed inline"'' doesn't really turn up anything.
    Does Iquest have their own support?
