Yahoo Mail On iPad - Attachments Appearing As Question Marks

A relative of mine has a Yahoo! Mail account which she uses for e-mail on her iPad.
She's had a problem recently that some of the attachments (JPGs) she's received haven't appeared in the Mail app on the iPad. Instead, they've shown up as question marks in boxes.
Anyone heard of this happening before? What's going wrong?

Your yahoo password is the same no matter what platform you access it on.
How are you trying to get at your mail? via the mail app? yahoo app? or via yahoo's mobile site and safari?
Try going into the settings, safari, passwords and autofill.
look for the site in question and tap on it. You may need to enter your passcode to access the info, but once you do you can see the password you used for that site.
On the main page that lists them all, you can see an 'edit' option. Choose that and you shoudl be able to delete the saved password for the site.

Mail with French / Spanish accented characters appear as Question marks

Hi
I am facing issues in mails that have French / Spanish accented characters in mail subject.Accented characters appear as Question marks (?) when received in the inbox.Mail subject is read from properties file.
Please let me know the following
- Should I have the entries in properties file in Unicode ? For example French accent character � is represented as á
- Should I replace msg.setSubject(subject); to msg.setSubject(subject,"UTF-8");
Please suggest.
Below is code snippet :
 Session session = getSession();
 // create a message
 Message msg = new MimeMessage(session);
 // set the from and to address
 InternetAddress addressFrom = new InternetAddress(from);
 InternetAddress[] addressTo = new InternetAddress[recipients.length];
 for (int i = 0; i < recipients.length; i++)
 addressTo[i] = new InternetAddress(recipients);
 msg.setFrom(addressFrom);
 msg.setRecipients(Message.RecipientType.TO, addressTo);
 msg.setSentDate(new Date());
* msg.setSubject(subject);*
 MimeMultipart mp = new MimeMultipart("related");

String subject = "\u00C 9tat de l'inscription en ligne";You need 4 hex digits after \u. You only included 3.
mailSubject = new String(subject.getBytes(), "UTF-8");
message.setSubject(MimeUtility.encodeText(mailSubject,"UTF-8", "B"), "UTF-8");Remove the above two lines. You're trying to make
this much too hard. All you need is:
message.setSubject(subject, "utf-8");
Should I use ISO8859_1 as Charset or UTF-8 ?I think the characters you're included are
representable in iso-8859-1 so you can use
that.
I am using Outlook express as my mail client. Do we have to decode it ?No.

It sounds like you might need to contact Yahoo! if you aren't able to setup your email account as a new account after deleting it.
I found some links on the Yahoo! website that might help:

TS2621 Cannot access my yahoo mail in iPad. Receive it on my iPhone. Have stopped & started both. Put the fetch to "off" & manually. Not sure what else to do.

Cannot access my yahoo mail in iPad. Receive it on my iPhone. Have stopped & started both. Put the fetch to "off" & manually. Not sure what else to do.comes up with message "connection to server failed". This started when I transferred my service to a iPhone 4 to a 4s.

Reinstalling would be about the most useless thing you could do, given that the test with the other User account works -- that means the application is OK.
The next step that would be indicated would to remove the com.apple.mail.plist file from Home/Library/Preferences, after having Quit Mail. Subsequently when you relaunch Mail it will open as though New, but if you only enter the setup information for each account, and DECLINE when prompt to ask if you want to Import anything. Mail should rediscover the existing account folders, and all should be well.
As a precaution, open Home/Library and locate the Mail folder -- Duplicate the Mail folder, and drag the resulting copy to the Desktop for temporary backup.

Images appear as question marks

I need help! I just uploaded my first dreamweaver website to
yahoo. My images appear as question marks. I've uploaded the images
in file manager along with the index.html. The site looks fine when
I preview in all browsers from dreamweaver. The files are still in
the same place on my hard drive and there are no broken links. The
file names are all lowercase and have no spaces. Please
help!

A link to the site always helps!
Sounds like you may have your images defined something like
<img src='c:\mysite\images\picture.jpg'> (or similar -
i don't do it so I can't remember the exact syntax of a file path)
try
<img src='images/picture.jpg'>
Again it would be easier to tell if you posted a link to your
site.

Some math elements appear as question marks in equations - FM9/Win7Pro

Hello everyone,
I am facing the issue that some math elements appear as question marks in equations; for example, the summation and angle symbols.
The approximately equal or the alpha symbols, for example, appear correctly.
The symbol font is installed.
System specs:
FrameMaker 9 with the latest patches installed.
Windows 7 Professional with the latest updates installed.
The strange thing is that math elements appear correctly using virtual computers on my computer (Windows XP and Windows 7 Ultimate on VMWare).
Same maker.ini file and fonts are present on all (real and virtual) computers.
I have reinstalled FrameMaker already on my real computer (where I have the trouble) and it did not solve the issue.
I have checked (I think) all question mark related topics (when question marks are displayed instead of the correct characters) on this site, but none of them provided the solution to my problem.
I would appreciate your help!
Thanks,
András

Hi Sheila,
Thank you for your response.
I use Adobe PDF as the default printer on both the real and virtual computers and I do not know the SetPrint utility.
I see the question marks appear in the FM files as well as in the printed PDF. It makes me think it is not a printing issue.
c:\windows\fonts is provided as the Font Source in the Embedding box for the Adobe PDF printer both on my real computer and my virtual one.
The SymbolMT font is listed in both cases in the Embedding box, which is (probably) referred to as Symbol Regular when I open the c:\windows\fonts folder using Windows Explorer. No other symbol fonts seem to be installed in this folder. I do not know how to check what other folders FM considers.
By the way, I can insert the summation character, for example, as a simple character using the Equations editor correctly, the problem comes when I try to insert it as a math element.
I have attached an example screenshot.
Thanks,
András

FontAwesome appears as question marks in FrameMaker 12. I installed the font in the Windows/Fonts folder. Do I need to do something else to get it to work in FM?

I need to update our fonts/templates to Font Awesome. I downloaded and installed the font in the Windows/Fonts folder.
The font appears as question marks (????) in place of the text in FrameMaker 12.
The font appears correctly in other applications, such as Microsoft Word and Outlook.
I tried this with both FontAwesome.otf and fontawesome-webfont.ttf.
Do I need to do something else to get this font to work in FM?
Thanks-
Stephanie

Well, if it's any consolation, it does the ????? thing (complete with bad font metrics for the question marks) in FM9, too.
I'm tempted to blame the font, but it could also be that FM is confused by things that shouldn't be where they are. You'll notice that some of the glyphs aren't given descriptive names in Character Palette.
For example, code points U+0000 through U+001F. Those are supposed to be the C0 Controls in Unicode, and not displayable glyphs.
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0000.pdf
Ditto for U+0080 through U+009F, which are the C1 Controls:
http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0080.pdf
The glyphs at these code points should either be in standard Unicode positions (where the glyph is covered by Unicode, such as that left pointing triangle at U+0011, which might have been the same thing as defined by Unicode at U+25C0 or 23F4) or in some Private Use area.
Ask for your money back .

Yahoo Mail not receiving attachments from Workflow Notifications

One of my clients uses Yahoo Mail and receives Workflow Notifications on their Yahoo Mail address. For some reason, file attachments are being removed within the Workflow Notification. I set up my own Yahoo Mail account and have the exact same issue.
Another issue is that the "view this item" link doesn't work at all within Yahoo Mail. However, the "mailto" link does work.
Has anybody else experienced issues with Yahoo Mail?

Hi,
If the yahoo user has admin access to the site then the attachment should appear within the workflow email.
If still experiencing such issue I would recommend raising a case so we can investigate this ASAP. Please include the users in question and also the email attachment or screencast so we can attempt to replicate within your case.
Admin -> help&support (to submit a case)
Thanks,

Something is using my yahoo mail on ipad to send to all my contacts

Something is using my Yahoo mail to send messages to my entire contact list. I believe I know the email it came in with (or on), and have deleted that. I have deleted all mail from inbox and trash, but do not seem to be able to delete drafts. The drafts have all been cancelled and not sent, but still appear on screen. The drafts appear to be the offending messages and have some bizarre to: names as well as my whole contact list.
What is it? What further can I do to couteract? How do I make sure I have taken care of all the damage?

Yahoo is horrible at the moment. Out of the 30 spam I may find in a day, over half of them originate from [email protected] The hackers and phishers seem to have gotten into their database bad.
What you're seeing isn't something on your iPad per se, but most likely yahoo itself. Changing the password helps. and make it a tougher one, letters and numbers.

Why can I no longer seemingly have the "option" in Yahoo Mail, to "View" attachments, and not just "download" them in my incoming emails?

When I use IE browser to open my YAHOO EMAIL "classic" or "New" account, and I open an "inbox email", I have the option of "viewing" attachments, or "downloading" attachments.
I used to have that "dual" option, seemingly, using Firefox Browser, which I prefer to use.
Now, when I open my "Classic" or "New" Yahoo Email Account/s, with Firefox Browser, I no longer have the option, seemingly, to "VIEW" the attachments, but only the option to "Download" them, which I prefer not to do.
I have tried this using the older version 3.6 and the new version 9 of Firefox with the same results. No "Dual Attachment Viewing/Downloading" option in Yahoo Mail anymore in either the "Classic" or "New" versions of Yahoo Mail.
Can I correct this or change this back to the older "DUAL" OPTION of "Viewing" and/or "Downloading" attachments...or is this just the way the New FireFox Browser works.?
This is only happening to me with YAHOO.COM Email Accounts.

Thank you! I suppected it would be in the settings somewhere. I' ve much to learn...get myself into trouble pushing buttons I don't really understand.

When i try to open Yahoo mail, a green box appears with a flash message that my session has expired and to sign in. when i do, the same message appears.

Linked yahoo mail to IPAD

Linked yahoo mail to my IPAD and now I cannot access my email on any other computer. How do I fix this? I want to be able to access my email from any computer whether at work or at home. I know this has been asked before but I cannot find the posting.

With your iPad connected to your computer go to the Info Pane and there are check boxes for syncing various items. From page 31 of the iPad Users Guide:
Contacts
You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo!
Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book,
Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Microsoft Outlook Express), Windows
Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync
contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one
application at a time.)
If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your
new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve
set up syncing.

I changed my yahoo mail password. iPad--no problem, but I can't use mail on iphone5, even after going to Settings. HELP!

I cant use yahoo mail on iPhone 5 after changing yahoo password. iPad had no problems, but nothing on iPhone 5, even after looking to "Settings". Keeps saying "Server Failed". Does anyone know how to fix this Gris Gris?

There currently is no solution. Apple lovers will tell you to deal with the yahoo side of things when in fact it is ALL Ape's fault. Imagine my frustration when I finally got an iPhone 5 only to see that Yahoo IMAP mail does not work. Thanks for technology boost, Apple!
