Received two emails in Gmail web mail on Win10 with no attachment icons.
They are huge mime things when viewed in Gmail as original. Sender says there are about 50 iPhone photos in each email. I just see black [x] boxes in gmail, which disappear when I click them. Something takes a few minutes to load and then goes away. The header of the emails is From: name of persion Content-type: multipart/alternative; boundary="Apple-Mail=_big_number" MIME-version: 1.0 (Mac OS X Mail 10.3 \(3273\)) Subject: Pictures Message-id: Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2017 18:43:12 -0400 To: me X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.3273) How do I view the pics from iphone to mac on windows? |

Don`t use email for such tasks. Use Google Photos for exchange of

| How do I view the pics from iphone to mac on windows? It sounds like the images are linked rather than attached or embedded. One can send an attachment. One can embed the images in the body of the email. Or the images can be added only as HTML links. The first two are the same except for slight differences in the coding. In both cases, the images have been converted to text encoding and are in the email. In the third case, linking, there's no image there. It's just an HTML link to an image elsewhere. Those are usually blocked by most email programs because remote image links are used for ads and tracking. From your description it's not clear whether you're actually getting a view of the images. If you are, you should be able to save them, if you want to. What you provided of the email content isn't enough to know what happened. Try saving the email as a file to the desktop. If it's a small file then the images are only linked. If it's a giant file then it sounds like the iPhone has sent an invalid email. I've been sent images attached from an iPhone before. The sender may just be doing it wrong. Also, you both seem to be using webmail. It might help if the sender used a real camera, sent from a real email address, and you had real email. Or at least set up POP email for your gmail. When you use freebie Web services it can get confusing because all of that is designed to keep you online and not have offline copies of files. And as Michael Logies noted, it might make sense to just put the images online somewhere. Even at the top resolution for sending photos from an iPhone, it's not good for anything but viewing onscreen. And sending via email adds 1/3 to the file size. So if you have a friend who likes to send lots of photos, they might want to try postimg, imgur.org, or some other freebie image hosting service. |

Wolf K:
The pictures are in iCloud. To see them, download the app: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204283 Did I miss something? How do you know the photos are in iCloud? The email was sent via an iCloud account, but that alone doesn't tell you where the photos are. If the photos are, indeed, in iCloud, then the sender needs to be educated as to how to send them by email. That is: bring the photos (not a link to the photos) to your computer and attach them to the email. Google Photos is an alternative to iCloud. It's a website, accessible with any browser, no app needed. There are many such services, eg, Photobucket. AFAIK, they all provide some levels of privacy and control. Google provides some level of privacy? Their very existence is about selling our privacy. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

Sure...keep telling yourself that. Countless Windows systems that I have encounter and nearly all the service is constantly crashing. On Linux many have issues with avahi-daemon, luckily it has not been an issue for me. BTW why did Apple have to make their own network discovery service? -- Take care, Jonathan ------------------- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com |

Sure...keep telling yourself that. Countless Windows systems that I have encounter and nearly all the service is constantly crashing. then there are other issues causing the crashes. bonjour is very reliable and incredibly useful. On Linux many have issues with avahi-daemon, no they don't. in any event, apple didn't write the avahi daemon for linux, so whatever issues you might have are with whomever wrote it. you can't blame apple for something they didn't write. luckily it has not been an issue for me. BTW why did Apple have to make their own network discovery service? they didn't. bonjour is just the name apple uses for zeroconf. on linux, it's avahi. zeroconf was developed in collaboration with apple, microsoft and sun because nothing like it existed. not using it is incredibly foolish. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3927 http://www.zeroconf.org The IETF Zeroconf Working Group was chartered September 1999 and held its first official meeting at the 46th IETF in Washington, D.C., in November 1999. By the time the Working Group completed its work on Dynamic Configuration of IPv4 Link-Local Addresses and wrapped up in July 2003, IPv4LL was implemented and shipping in Mac OS (9 & X), Microsoft Windows (98, ME, 2000, XP, 2003), in every network printer from every major printer vendor, and in many assorted network devices from a variety of vendors. IPv4LL is available for Linux and for embedded operating systems. If you're making a networked device today, there's no excuse not to include IPv4 Link-Local Addressing. |

Okay nonsense again. As I said different service for different requirements. I run mailservers. No not *everyone* reads their mail from multiple devices. Some accounts I and others need to access from multiple devices so we use IMAP. Other accounts for business we don't and offline storage is important so we use POP. Some ISPs no longer offer email...Verizon is now dumping the service but I would not say email is obsolete. -- Take care, Jonathan ------------------- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com |
