Why do JPEG files show up as BMP files when I email

Can someone help me send a full size JPEG Picture to a windows user without it changing it to a BMP file? I have chosen 'Always send windows-friendly attachments' and chosen 'Full Size', but it comes across as a .BMP file instead of JPEG.
Please help

If the person is using Yahoo on the other end they have to view your attachments by clicking on the "search shortcuts" and "my attachments". Then they will see the attachments as jpgs and have an option to download them. I am not sure what is happening because jpegs that I send by editing them in Adobe Photoshop Elements and dragging into mail attach in Yahoo normally.
Yahoo may be using bmp files to display the files when the actual file is actually a jpeg.

  • I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first

    I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first phone?

    it's meant to work like that
    so if you receive a message on your iphone you also get it on your ipad or ipod touch
    to avoid it use separate appleID for each device
    or turn off imessage on 1 or both devices in their settings
    but that will not fix the issue that 2 devices using the same appleID will never be able to facetime eachother
    the appleID is a unique handle for 1 user only

  • App icns files showing in All My Files - why?

    For some reason .icns files within applications are showing in the All My Files view (under Images).
    Any idea why this is happening and how I stop them from showing?
    Many thanks,
    M.

    Solved it.  I downloaded Apple's Icon Composer tool that allows you to open .icns files and just opened and saved each .icns file.  The files then stopped showing in All My Files.  Odd. 

  • Why won't Apple show in my Common files?

    Why won't Apple show up in my common files when I try to update my Iphone

    I assume Canon 70D came after Lr4 was no longer being fitted with new camera support (i.e. when Lr5 was released).
    (feel free to double-check that assumption - if wrong, then forget the rest of this post..).
    Remedies:
    * upgrade to Lr5, or
    * convert to DNG (using free Adobe Converter).

  • Some iTunes library files showing as an unknown file type - different files from same import...

    Haven't been able to find a similar problem on here, but apologies if this is a repetition of another discussion.
    Some of the files in my Itunes library popped up with the little exclamation mark next to them, so I attempted to locate them. It's been a patchy problem since transferring from PC to Mac, but has just been an issue of pointing Itunes to the right file.
    However, in this instance when I navigate through to the files in the folder they aren't showing as the same file type as the music that is playing in the library - I just get a blank page icon.
    What's confusing me is that these aren't different file types or from different sources. They're maybe 3 tracks out of a whole album that is playing fine, that were all ripped from the same CD at the same time.
    I've no idea why the Itunes is seeing some of these files differently. Any ideas?

    Looked at in the HD they're all showing as M4P. I'm sure it's the way the software is viewing the files, and not the files themselves. Itunes does offer to find the others, but then does a really crappy job of doing so - missing files in the same album in the same folder.
    I've cracked the original file problem by pointing Itunes to the files by going through the MacHD route, so now I'm just wrestling with thousands of missing files that I know are sitting right next to the files that aren't missing!
    I might just resign myself to ploughing through and fixing it, sorting the patchy artwork at the same time. If I do a purge at the same time I can convince myself that I'm not wasting my life!

  • Photoshop files show as unix executable files

    Hi,
    I've have a back-up drive with all my old files (the past 15 years). After I copied them over I noticed that most of them showed up as unix executable files. The most of the Quark files I was able to repair by adding .qxp. When I add the appropriate extension to my Photoshop files, (.tif, .eps) and then try to open them, PS won't recognize the files. Is there a fix to this. Unfortunately the originals have disappeared with a drive that crashed.
    Thanks for any help.

    Adding file extensions for unique application-types will work fine as long as there's an entry for LaunchServices to reference to - add the .qxd extension will "make" them Quark files, for example. The more generic types are going to be the problem, as there are many applications listed in LaunchServices that can open TIFF and EPS files. If you had files that you could absolutely identify as raw Photoshop files, adding a .psd extension would most likely work for those.
    Maybe I just need to let all those files go...
    Since it seems that only the resource fork has been munged, the files are probably fine - just missing the resource fork with the Type/Creator code and the preview info that Photoshop stores there.

  • Why do I have trouble with attachments being stripped when sending email via Earthlink Webmail using Firefox?

    I recently built a new computer running Win 8.1. However, I have had trouble sending and receiving attachments with Earthlink Webmail on Firefox. I sometimes cannot see attachments to emails I receive, although the size of the file indicates they are there. When I try to send an email with attachments, the browser contacts Earthlink, and then the message reappears, but the attachments have been stripped. If I hit Send again, the message goes, but without the attachments. If I re-attach the attachments and hit send, they are again stripped. I contacted Earthlink support, and they told me it is a problem with Firefox. I then tried IE and was able to send the attachments without a problem.
    I would really appreciate any help as Firefox is my browser of choice.

    1. Not sure how to send an email in a private browsing window... I use Earthlink Web Mail and I cannot find anything on that site about private browsing window.
    2. Have not tried this yet, but will when I get a chance.
    3. Not sure. My old computer ran XP. Never had the problem with it. Right now, it is not connected to the internet, so can't check it.
    4. I neglected to mention... I did try IE and it worked fine.
    I do have Norton 360 installed, but it was not a problem on the XP machine.
    Thanks for your response. I have been so busy lately that I just now picked up your response. I have not had time t to try anything else.
    As far as the file type, I was trying to send pdf files. Have not tried other file types.
    Earthlink limits messages (and attachments) to 20 MB. The files were less than 3 MB.

  • Why can I not rotate and re-save iPhone photos once I import them to my PC? They are not being saved into a Read-Only folder. And why can't I open them or save them when I email them to myself?

    Hi I'm having trouble with the photos from my iPhone.
    When I import them to my PC, it won't let me rotate them and re-save them. It says that there is a problem with the file's properties or they may be in a read-only folder. The latter is not the case.
    I have tried opening them in several programmes but Windows Photo Viewer is default
    Also when I email them to myself I can't open them or save them down to my computer.
    Is there a setting on my iPhone that I should change that is impacting on the photo's file properties? This has only just started happening.
    Thanks!

  • Why do files show in all my files when they have been deleted

    In finder > all my files > there are files that have been put in trash yet they show up when I delete them it wants me to fix alias but won't work because the file has been deleted

    Have you tried to drag the alias to the desktop?
    When you look at an alias, what folder is it stored in? If you highlight it, it should show the information in the path bar at the bottom of the finder window. If the path bar isn't visible, click on View and select show path bar.
    You may try to repair permissions using disk utility and see if that helps.

  • Why is my 3GS showing some incorrect album artwork when it is correct on computer?

    When using my ipod on my 3GS I have noticed that I sometimes have the incorrect artwork displayed. For example I have 3 Nickelback albums which on my computer shows the correct artwork but on my iphone either doesn't show the artwork or is showing Elton John albums!!! Seems a bit of a strange glitch. Anyone else have this problem or know how to solve it?

    I've always assumed those silly strings were recording the results of the gapless playback analysis but whatever they're for it would be better if they were stored in a spare field.
    Windows Media Player/Windows Explorer may be less fussy on embedded artwork formats than iTunes or the media file might actually be missing the art but the Windows Explorer cache (Thumbs.db) still shows it. You say removing-reimporting doesn't help but I assume you can still paste new artwork in and have it remembered. If so you might want to use the following tool to at least take some of the effort out of searching out which tracks you need to repair.
    *How to find tracks without artwork*
    To find all the tracks without artwork so that you can update them you can try http://www.stum.de/itunes-find-tracks-without-artwork/ for Windows or http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/scripts13.php for Macs. Use Google, Amazon, Discogs etc. to locate relevant jpeg images. Ideally these should be square, 320x320 pixels or above and borderless to give the best results in the various menus. If you have artwork for some tracks of an album, but not others, select a track with artwork, right-click (Option-Click for Macs) on the art & click copy, then select all the tracks of the album, use CTRL-I or Command-I to *Get Info* and then paste the image into the artwork box.
    I say 320x320 because I believe (from using TouchCopy) that it's the size used in the iPod cache so if you're going to crop or resize you might as well work to that size. Otherwise 200x200 is probably good enough.

  • Why does a face show up on my iPad when I have deleted it from aperture

    I am using aperture to tag a modestly large library (about 22,000 photos) all for personal use. I've been going through these photos and tagging faces. As a sort of "holding pen" for faces that I wasn't sure about in the unnamed faces strip at the bottom of the faces page, I put ?? (i.e., two question marks) as the name for a bunch of photos. Then I went through that face and either put the right name in, when I was able to see the full picture, or deleted the face - i.e., clicked the little x in the upper right hand corner of the box surrounding the face.
    Most of the images disappeared just fine, and the "??" face no longer appears on the cork board in my aperture. I can find no evidence anywhere that I can see that the ?? face tag still exists in aperture.
    But it must, because when I sync with my ipad, there is a face called ?? and there are pictures in it. When I look at those pictures in aperture on my Mac, I can't find the face - I must have deleted it.
    Does anyone know why this is happening and how to stop it?
    I have been having trouble with aperture syncing in other ways - I was getting a variety of errors in itunes when syncing the ipad - and so have gone through many steps, including repairing permissions in my aperture database, repairing the database, regenerating previews, turning synchronization off and on, repairing permissions on my hard drive, deleting the preferences (plist) file, and so forth, but even doing a clean installation of the photos onto my ipad (i.e., turning off sync and deleting photos on ipad, then turning it back on and putting the photos back on from aperture after doing all the above steps), I am STILL getting this ?? face.
    All help will be gratefully received.

    Homesharing has issues that have not been fixed over several versions of itunes and ios.
    Only kind of fix is go back through your library and retag it.

  • Quark files show as unix executable files.

    I have a strange issue. This is an all mac enviornment. The iMac's are running 10.4.11, and Quark express 6.0 One of the iMac's show the quark files as unix executable files. All of the other mac's can open the files without any issue.
    On the iMac that has an issue, some of the folders show up as unix executable files as well. Also, there is a network share that is a log in item that should auto mount when the user logs in, it no longer mounts automatically. The only way to mount the share is by navigating through finder.
    I was able to open one of the quark files by using open, then save the file using save as. this appended the file extension. I also enabled file extensions in finder, and manually appended the extension and they still would not associate with Quark. The file I did a save as does associate with Quark but it is the only one.
    I repaired disk permissions and that did not help. Anyone have any ideas on this one?

    I also couldn't find the download link for xsupport on the link you provided.
    Looks like they have changed their business model. I just copied the URL out of the aboutbox of my copy of the Xsuppport toll but didn't crosscheck it.
    Does that give any indication on what the problem is?
    Not really, perhaps a corrupted or unreadable (by permission) .DS_Store file in the folder where your Xpress files reside, but then again that should affect other clients as well.
    Which leads to the question:
    When some clients have the correct mapping document <-> Quark Xpress and one (or more) other(s) don't, do you connect with different users to the server or are the users always the samr but the connection made from different machines?
    If youuse different users to connect, then the problem very like is on the server side (addess rights, etc). If the same user has different results on different machines, the problem's most likely a local one. In which case you coud try all of ManiMenu's clean and deep clean actions.

  • Video files show up as music files?!?!

    My 5th Gen 30GB ipod Video has around 30 video files in it. When I plugged it into computer today (with iTunes installed) to charge it, after a few hours when I unplugged it, all the video files were gone! I found them all under the music section of my ipod. When I play them, only the very first pixel/clip shows up in a small icon( where the album usually is for music) and plays the audio only. This isnt the first time it has happend either, last time I had to delete all the vid files and reupload them onto my iPod. This time they are still in there, anyone have any idea on how to fix this? This is extremely frustrating! Thanks for your help in advance!

    I have this same problem. But, the videos are not on my computer. My boyfriend put them on from his laptop, but lent it to his friend. The friend will have his laptop until this weekend, and I really do not want to wait that long. If anyone has a quick solution, I would really appreciate it.

  • TS2972 Why does my library show on another computer even when my library sharing is off in the itunes settings?

    Ok in my setting all sharing with computers on my local conection is off....yet my fianes computer still can get into my library why?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes match doesn't provide movies or TV shows.
    Depending on where you are located you may be able to download purchesed content from iTunes in the cloud. Content that is streamed from your library obviously needs your computer to be on or otherwise it wouldn't have access to that content, there is no alternative to this.

  • Can i convert text file in to a bmp file?

    Hi ALL !!!
    can i convert test file into a bmp (bitmap)file?please tell me if anybody knows.
    thanx in advance,

    You're converting a test file (text file?) into a Windows bitmap?
    I don't know exactly what that means, but the following links are resources for reading from and writing to a bitmap file in Java, respectively. They may give you an idea on what the bitmap is expecting.
