Why can I not attach files

When I try to attach a file on a web site my only option is to open file. 

I also cannot attach files on websites.  For instance, I am job searching and I can't attach my resume to the website www.Barr.com. This is not the only website that I seem to have this problem.  In fact, each time I apply to a job, my iPad does not allow me to attach a file.  I have to copy and paste my resume. So frustrated..... This needs to be fixed ASAP..... Slightly disappointed.

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

    Why can I not open files saved on a server?

    I think I figured it out.  I set the compatibility mode to Windows Server 2008 (which is the OS on the server we are using) and it opened just fine.  Whoop Whoop.  Thanks for your help.

  • Why can I not attach multiple files on iPad ???

    Why does iPad not allow multiple files to be attached. This is one of the very basic feature all computers must have...why is apple trying to complicate the like of people without this simple feature ???????
    Please add this feature in your iOS updates...this is jut crazy !!!!!!

    We are just other users here. Apple does not read these posts for your suggestions or complaints. Suggest it here.
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
    BTW - the iPad is not a computer and was not designed - at least to this point - to totally take the place of a computer. There are other email apps available as well that may suit your needs - MailShot or Group Email with attachments. Check those out - see if they allow for multiple file attachments.

  • Why can't I attach files from desktop to hotmail?

    I'm trying to attach files to a "hotmail" message and my eMac just spins forever. There must be some security settings preventing this. Can anybody assist me? Thanks.

    As I don't use hotmail I don't have experience with this problem. Maybe just move away from the Microsoft windows.live hotmail, to something more Apple friendly.
    Do they have a support site where you could see if other's are experiencing this problem?
    If you have an ISP, don't you get an email account with that, as part of the service? Often you can have several email addresses with the one ISP. For that you can use Apple's Mail application.
    If you are traveling overseas and want web based email, the other alternative is Gmail.
    Sorry I can't help solve your problem but it seems uncommon and I am not familiar with hotmail.
    One web based email I use is Yahoo and that seems to work OK. Maybe switch to that.

  • Why can't you attach files when replying to email?  Geez!

    Come on Apple, this is a basic feature on every other smartphone...can't attach files in reply to emails and can 't attach them from starting an email directly...instead you have to go to the file first, select it and then tell it to send in an email. This is ridiculous!

    Apps on the iPhone are pretty much sandboxed, with some exceptions. This means that any given app can only see files associated with that app. You cannot share any files between apps.
    You can't do this:
    1) Download a file from Safari and save it (app number 1)
    2) Edit that file (e.g. word processor) (app number 2)
    3) Copy that file (e.g. file explorer) (app number 3)
    4) Open an email and attach the file to it (app number 4)
    etc, etc.
    You also can't save files associated with an app, delete that app and reinstall it, and then restore those files. If you could do this, you could do a "restore as a new phone" to fix whatever problems you might be having, but not lose anything in the process.
    The iPad can't do this either, which eliminates it as a laptop replacement.

  • Why can't I attach files to my emails in Mac Mail?

    I've messed with the .webarchive and .mailsignature to create myself an HTML email signature. After completing that, which worked, I can now no longer attach files to my emails in Mac Mail. I can click the attachment button, browse to the attachment and hit okay, but it shows nothing in the email and seems to freeze up. I have since replaced those .webarchive and .mailsignature files with the originals from Apple and restarted the computer but still am not able to attach files to my emails. Any help?
    Thank you.

    Except for the first response, all of you are unhelpful. The email was configured. Apple contacted me about the issue and said that the iPad cannot attach multiple docs to a single email regardless of whether the docs are located on the iCloud, in Pages, or a dropbox. It's operating system is not designed to do so (a stupid error if they are promoting the use of iPads for business and productivity, or even fields like architecture, design, and marketing, or even as an office alternative for remote use in meetings...which they are in professional consultations with offices). It also cannot do this through an alternate email site like a university server, yahoo, gmail, etc via Safari. Apple also cannot recommend a third party App that can do so. What they recommended, and there seems to be a lot of buzz about this being a problem with the iPad on the Internet, is that people go to their website, go to product feedback and go to enhancement requests and request the capacity to attach different types of files other than photos, and the capacity to attach multiple documents to an email. Basic functions...any email user would want. One of the Apple techs even thought it was implausible that they hadn't integrated this function ALREADY, when I called to set up the appointment.

  • Why can't I attach files in an email instead of having them embedded?

    Can't figure out how to attach files in an email. They always come up embedded. I need to send files to someone to edit them. Help please.
    I'm sure this is an easy fix.
    Using Leopard on a MacBook Pro and Iphoto 08
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can. Control-click on the embedded photo and select View as Icon from the menu.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Why can't I attach files using Yahoo email? I've clicked on 'Attach files more easily' and nothing happens. With all other browsers, I have no issues attaching files.

    I want to attach Word files to some of my yahoo emails. Instead of the word 'attach' like on all other browsers, Fierfox wants me to click on 'Attach files more easily' and download this. Nothing happens leaving me unable to use Firefox if I wish to use my yahoo email and send attachments, files or pics.

    The only way I can open a PDF is to launch the Reader X software and click "open files" from there.  Obviously, this doesn't help me since I need to email PDFs to clients, and printing 'n faxing isn't an option.
    You don't need Adobe Reader to email PDFs to clients.

  • Why can I not find files created with x-rite software in color sync folder?

    Creating printing profiles for different papers.They are being stored in a hidden folder. Why?

    I can only find two library folders out of the three that you are speaking of. It is my understanding that in 10.7 and 10.8 they changed where and access to certian files.
    I'm just really stumped why it would hide files that are being used by more than application when I can put downloaded images in colorsync folder and they are fine.
    Thank you for your help and suggestions

  • Why can I not open file?

    While always "error opening file-file cannot be found." When buying tickets for shows that are deliverred through internet, often the file cannot be found or there's error opening file? Seems to me that Adobe shoold have solved that problem by now?

    Files downloaded from the internet are frequently located in a temp folder. If you then try to open the file in Reader it may not be there because the temporary file may now be gone. You need to ensure the pdf you are trying to view is saved in some more permanent location.

  • HT5527 Why can I not share files anymore now that MobileMe is gone?

    Previously, I could send large files to clients via links with MobileMe. I cannot find how to do this anymore. Is this option still available?

    No,  iCloud does not provide such a service. Look inti Dropbox or Sugarsync for iDisk-like features. Basic accounts are free.
