Why do .pdf attachments in email show up differently

I  am using Adobe Reader 10.0.3 on an iMac running on 10.5.8. Sometimes the .pdf attachment shows up in emails  I am sending as the full text and othertimes as just the icon. It doesn't affect the receiving by others. They can open either one. Why does this happen and how can I make them consistently showing just the  icon?

This is probably being done on the email server which you are using. The links are probably being modified based on security settings.

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

    Cannot open PDF attachments in email, get administrator logon using Acrobat X?

    I have no problem opening PDF attachments that arrive in my Outlook 2003 Inbox; they open fine with Adobe Reader 9. It may be an issue with your email client.
    But if you think that Adobe Reader 8 will fix it, you can download it from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/8.x/8.1.3/enu/AdbeRdr813_en_US.exe - make sure that you uninstall Reader 9 first (and Acrobat.com & Adobe AIR).

  • My pdf attachments to emails suddenly will no open.

    I have had no problem opening pdf attachments to emails. I have done this repeatedly. Over the last day, I have suddenly had problems opening pdf attachments to emails. If I reboot the computer, I may get one or two pdf attachments to open and then they stop opening.

    Have you tried to open a very old iPhoto library from iPhoto 6 or earlier and downloaded
    iPhoto Library Upgrader 1.0.?  Then it does not suffice to install the upgrader, you need to run it and to upgrade the library.
    Or do you get this error message for your current iPhoto library?

    You can't. If you could it would be a HUGE security bug, and would be quickly fixed.

  • Why are PDF attachments are showing up on the body of emails, instead of as actual attachments?

    PDF attachments are showing up in the body of my emails rather than as attachments. I need to be able to open them in other programs, eg notability, mad can't do that if they're not real attachments. On my other devices they're showing up at regular attachments.

    When a PDF that has only one page is attached to an email the Mail app will display the conte tents of the PDF in the body of the email. But the PDF is still an attachment. Tap on the PDF to open in iBooks or forward it to your computer to open it there. Again, the one page PDF will display the contents of the single page but the PDF is still an attachment and can be used like any other attachment.
    When a PDF that has more than one page is attached to an email the Mail app only displays the icon for an attachment.

    Hi,
    Are the PDF files showing with the PDF icon or other icons in your local disk?
    Please start Outlook in sate mode and test again. To do this, press Windows key + R to open the Run command, type
    outlook /safe and press Enter.
    In addition, you may also try to clean out the Temporary Outlook Files folder to check the result. See:
    http://www.howto-outlook.com/faq/securetemp.htm
    Please let me know the result.

  • PDF attachments in Email lost ability to "open with"

    Just in the last few weeks, suddenly ios email is treating PDF attachments as a picture only offering me the option to Save Image or Copy when I press and hold the preview image in email.
    I need to be able to Open With my apps like GoodReader,  
    I have already tried a reset and that did nothing

    I guess you mean that after ******* around deleting this and that, and getting it to work once or twice, the problem resurfaced ?
    This is a bug pure and simple.  The same problem is in evidence when using a link to a pdf in Safari.  The only thing you get is the qick-view output (1.st. page) and no opportunity to open it with, or save it to iBooks.
    You would think that Apple would want to solve this problem, wouldn't you?

  • I can't see pdf attachments in emails once downloaded but I can see it in iBooks

    Hey All,
    Need help. It's for my co-workers iphone 5. He gets sent emails and when I try to open the attachment - pdf - It doesn't show it. However if I select to Open in iBooks it is visble. Other twist to the story is that I tried to forward it to me and when I open it on my iPhone 5 it works perfectly fine in the emails, I dont have to waste time viewing it in iBooks. Any suggestions? Could it be his mail settings? Or the iPhone playing up? Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Usually when you open an email with an attachment above the email itself it says view images. If you see this you click allow and then there is another box that says always allow select that and it should be good
    Hope this helped,

  • What is the fix to get pdf attachments in emails to open without having to save first?

    I received a new machine and now when I get an email with a pdf attachment I have to save it first before I can open it.  How can I fix that?  Thanks

    The fix will be to your email setup, or browser, or something like that. Can't always be fixed.
    So, how do you read your email?
    What app do you use?
    If it's a browser, who provides your email?
    What happens when you try to open the PDF attached to emails?

  • Why are my photo attachments to emails showing as code only to the recipient?

    Hi I have a problem sending photos to my partner by email. We both have iPhones (5 and 5S). I'm using outlook to send the messages.  I can send and receive pictures to my other email accounts but when I send a photo to his email address it shows up only as code.

    The issue with not seeing the paper clip in your Sent mailbox seems to be totally removed from anything related to recipients, and is something to perhaps yet be addresses in a future update.
    To the issue with recipients, I would guess the recipient is using Outlook or Outlook Express, and the message is being sent in Rich Text (a form of HTML) and the recipient either cannot open the attachment, or they have an over zealous anti-virus filter that is removing the attachment out of fear caused by the presence of HTML.
    More info about the recipient's platform, please.

  • CRM 7.0 Unable to open/view PDF Attachments in Email (Intermittent issue)

    Hi,
    Unable to open an attachment (PDF format) sent from exchange server(Lotus) to SAP CRM,Actually its an intermittent issue When i try to open email in UI ,getting an error message "File is damaged and couldnot be repaired".
    I understand that PDF attachment wasn't delivered(Synchronization issue between Lotus and CRM) to SAP CRM system properly by the exchange server ( Lotus ).Hence the particular attachments are not able to view/open in SAP CRM system.
    Is there anyway to trace and find out root cause of the issue?
    Regards,
