I am not receiving emails with attachments.

I HAVE RECENTLY NOT BEEN RECEIVING ATTACHMENTS IN EMAILS...ANY HELP?

  • In the last 3 weeks I have not been recieving attachments in mail that was sent to me. The sender is asked to resend and it continues to not appear.

  • Answer:

    Yahoo is still having some problems at the moment. Suggested cures range from Update Adobe Flash Player and Java script to clear IE7 cache, cookies, and browsing history. Different things seem to work for different people. It's causing attachments to not show, 999 errors where it won't let you do a particular action and some people cannot send receive delete or move mail. It's not just Vista either it's happening to some of us on XP. If all else fails go back to classic mail via this link. http://us.mg1.mail.yahoo.com/dc/optout?script=no click yes when asked do you want to opt out. Hope this helps.

Is the attachment not arriving at all and no sign of one or is the email showing there is one and you can't get to it? Often it's your security software or a setting that is stopping you. You don't say whether you are using a computer-based email system but I'll assume that you are. For Outlook Express: -- Open Outlook Express and choose Tools --> Options --> Security -- Make sure "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus" is unticked. -- If some things still aren't coming through, you may need to untick "Block images and other external content in HTML e-mail" as well. Have you tried signing in on your email providers website to see if the attachments are being sent from your friend's computer? -- Go to the email provider's website. -- Look for links to Webmail or Email or similar and click. -- When you find one of the correct links, you will be asked to put in your email username and password. Do so and continue. -- In your online Inbox, look for an email that you know should have an attachment and make sure the attachment is there. -- If the attachment is missing, the problem is with the sender's computer. It is rare that web based email systems have a setting so that you won't be shown that there should be an attachment.
