Cannot attach files to an e-mail message

I have Windows 7, use Yahoo for email. All of a sudden cannot attach a file to an e-mail message. Box appears, a small green line starts, then stops - circle of rotation keeps it what do.  The document was created in Word Pad.  When I try to join by right-clicking the document and send to an e-mail recipient, get a message that I don't have an e-mail program? Would appreciate help with this.

Hello

Send it to / mail recipient option works only if you have a separate E-mail program is installed.

You must have a Desktop Email program is installed to do this, such as Windows Live Mail, which is part of the Windows Essentials range.

    Depending on your email provider, you should be able to connect to your e-mail via their Web site.  Then, you can attach files to messages from their web interface.  Then, go to the website of your email provider and see if there is a link to the mail.

  • Cannot attach files in any email AOL, yahoo or the company. Also only shows blank page when access yahoo email.

    In any web mail program AOL, Yahoo, my companies, you cannot attach files when you compose an email. By the icon/button attach it says "no file selected" (or when you switch on it). This also happens in safe mode. The browser speed is also very slow. Once logged into my yahoo mail, I get a blank page. In the title bar, it says I have x amount of email.

    I reinstalled Firefox and for about 60 seconds, it was fast and yahoo opens up very well and I was able to reach yahoo emails and on behalf of my company. After this he returned to its slow and not be attached and yahoo opening a blank page.

    I have run spybot and deleted and malicious software threats found them all. I think something infects Firefox. IE and Chrome do not have this problem. Any help would be appreciated as I am at a loss.

    antivirus was not a problem since it was not installed. Firewall settings are fine. I just finally solve this problem. SpyHunter was able to detect two of the hijackers that other programs do not have, and this fixes the problem. As I said in the original post I did not suspect that this was the problem. The lesson is to run several malware programs, until you find one that eliminates the problem, if you think that malware as the problem.

    When you try to open the .jpg file in an e-mail message, get the message.  This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action.  Create an association in the Folder Options Panel.  How should I do?

    1. download and save the attachment to the office.
    2. right click on the saved file.
    3. Select: Open with on the shortcut menu.
    4. click on: choose [default] program.
    5 select: Windows Picture and Fax Viewer (unless you are using a different program).

  • Why can not open a JPEG file in an e-mail message on my computer but I can't do on my smartphone? I'm used to be able to do this before the upgrade to the CD player.

    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC using newly updated since Adobe Acrobat, I am not able to open a JPEG file in an e-mail message in Microsoft Outlook on my computer but I am able to open the attachment on my smartphone.  I think I used to be able to open a JPEG file before the upgrade.  I don't know what to do.

    mredjoe49 wrote:

    It's more than likely the problem. The Adobe Acrobat Reader software is not an 'upgrade' to Adobe Acrobat. Acrobat will open and convert .jpg files in PDF, free player open that pdf file.

    If you want to 'upgrade' and need this capability, you must update to Acrobat, not reader.

    The good news is that you should always have Acrobat on your system. Open it and use it to open the .jpg file.

  • Cannot attach files to outgoing messages hotmail or yahoo mail in Windows 7

    I have two new laptops running Windows 7. The system configuration is very similar between them. One of them has no difficulty to attach files even large photo for outgoing messages from webmail. On the other computer, not even small attachments can be uploaded and attached to the email. I checked everywhere I can think of to look at, including the rotation of the firewall on the computer, but nothing helped. Any ideas what is blocking outgoing attachment post and hot to fix it? Download of entrants on the web by e-mail ancillary works very well. TIA.

    McAfee and Norton antivirus programs both tend to interfere with the mail. I suggest you to uninstall your antivirus and replace with a free antivirus that is compatible 100%:

  • On OSX 10.9.2 cannot attach files to gmail.

    I am running OSX 10.9.2. Try to attach a local file to a message in gmail blocks Firefox hang. He gets to the download screen and then comes the beach of rotation ball. Must start the Finder and kill Firefox. I have Firefox "Reset". I also uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox. Can attach files OK to gmail with Safari. Problem occurred very suddenly. No clear update has occurred. Thanks for any help on this problem. Its bad.

    Thanks for all your advice, but I found the problem. It seemed to be an Alias of corrupt. For future reference, here is how things have progressed.
    (a). I noticed that the "Upload" screen has been failed on the desktop.
    (b) I started to remove aliases, and after each deletion, tried to make an email with attachment.
    (c) I deleted Photoshop CC alias and "Upload" showed again the default desktop screen, but it machined does not hang, and attachments to the e-mail went normally.
    (d) I Redid the Alias Photoship and placed it on the desk. All right.

    I don't know how an Alias could get corrupted, but I hope that does not portend a deeper, more serious problem. Thanks again for all your help.

  • cannot attach files to send

    Lately when you try to attach any type of file in the folder my documents to any mail server that I freeze - I click on the file and the attach icon and just freeze - I have to force close and start again - sometimes I can reach and sometimes I can't

    Search for antivirus interference.  Your antivirus software might be blocking the ability to attach or slows it down.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    Also, instead of using the Insert | Attached file, try dragging the file on top of the message and the last straw and he will become attached in this way.

    Also when I try to change the mode to "share with" for a folder of "null" to something else, it remains locked.   As an administrator, how do I control the action with the function?
