Why can't I attach documents into my email? I am currently using OS X 10.5.8

You can call Apple with the Serial# handy, & possibly get the original Install Discs cheap, or...
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It looks like they might still have it...

It's been reported that if you have a MobileMe account, it may be free from Apple.

Why can't I attach docs to my email, even when I'm in my mac or yahoo account when using an iPad. I'm thinking of returning it because it is a basic tool that isn't supported.

Why can't I attach files when writing an email, even when logged in to my mail account via safari, on my iPad. I'm thinking of retuning it as a big waste of time and money.

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 documents and photos to my outgoing emails in Windows live hotmail

Ever since the new version of Windows live hotmail has been downloaded on my computer, the only way I can attach documents and photos to outgoing emails is thru Internet explorer without any add ons and even this was not easy. I used to be able to attach with no problems and now I cannot and I really need to be able to do this. I send alot of emails with attachments. Every time I try to attach a document it gives me an error message. It just says error nothing else. Please help!!!!

Hi
Pages saves its files as a small package, not a single file. You will have to compress it first (think it's called Create Archive but can't be sure). You could do File>Export & choose .doc which would save it as a Word document & then attach it to the email (some formatting may be lost).

Why can't i attach multiple attachments on email using iPad

Using the iPad, in the apple mail app you can't attach documents only photos and videos, why is that? Especially trying to attach PDF files from iBooks you can't from the mail app. Even if I go to iBooks and try to attach multiple pdf's on one email I can't.
please help with this.
Thank you.

There are Apps like GoodReader which allow attaching multiple documents to emails including multiple PDFs.

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.

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.

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 is not possible to attach documents into emails in answer to others emails?

why is not possible to attach documents into emails in answer to others emails?

This is a user to user forum and nobody knows Apple's motives in not including that feature yet. I suggest you use the following link to provide your suggestion to Apple.
http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
You can, by the way, add photos or videos when replying, just not other document types. It more than likely relates to the sandboxing of iOS apps to keep things safe and malware free.

Why can one spot colour convert into two different sets of CMYK values?

Working within Illustrator CC, I have an EPS file of a logo which has a colour fill value of:
Pantone 152 U
CMYK: 0C 51M 100Y 1K
When I copy and paste this into a new document I get a much duller colour (orange) with colour values of:
Pantone 152 U
CMYK: 2C 57M 83Y 2K
I have enabled 'ask when opening' & 'ask when pasting' for Profile Mismatches in Edit->Color Settings->'Color Management Policies' - no warning shows up.
I have also tried turning off, changing color management policies.
I've opened the original eps file and assigned my working space profile (Coated FOGRA39) and then try copy and pasting without success.
Help!

In addition to John's useful comments:
Using Pantone 512U (uncoated) isn't correct for Coated Fogra.
Why can one spot color convert into two different CMYK sets if converted by the user?
Assumed, the one spot color is uniquely defined by one Lab set:
– the CMYK spaces are different
– the CMYK spaces are the same but the Rendering Intents are different
– the CMYK spaces are the same but the Black Point Compensations are different
(on or off for Relative Colorimetric).
Assumed, the spot colors are equal by name, but valid for different versions, both in Lab:
– this obviousl at present the most common source of deviations.
Assumed, the spot colors are defined by CMYK:
– a chaotic situation which I wouldn't even like to dicuss.
– CMYK to CMYK conversions should be avoided under all circumstances.
The solutions:
If the spot color will be printed always and everywhere by Pantone spot ink:
– purchase an actual Pantone color fan und discuss with the printer the mixture for the selected ink.
If the Pantone color is merely a design feature, but the doc will be printed by CMYK:
– choose such a color and verify by soft proofing that the color is in-gamut for common CMYK spaces.
– read the Lab values and proceed as far as possible using Lab.
– don't use ink names, don't use any reference to Pantone.
– convert into to a specificic CMYK space in advance to the generation of the specific PDF.

This is not a feature of Adobe Reader. You'll need either Acrobat or a subscription to one of the web-based services that Adobe offers (like PDF Pack) to do it.

Your carrier determines what you can send in a text message, Apple has no control over it as SMS and MMS are completely carrier-based
