That worked but when I clicked on the attachment to be sure it was what I wanted to attach, a new window opens up "about:blank" instead of the actual attachment. In other words, the recipient can't open the attachment. Solution?

Hi, Could you please help? Is a document saved just by clicking the save rectangular box? And, how do I make sure I am only sending the document I intended? does the system sends anything else besides the document we select? do you have tutorials for absolute beginners? Thank you!

[@HelpCloud]

Once you click the save icon, the document is saved. The email system doesn't send any attachments that you have not selected to attach to the email.

[@judysmith7118]

Do you know how to attach a file that i saved to my documents or downloaded to downloads from the internet, like a picture & description of a house for sale or the latest GIC rates or something..whenever I attach something like this it goes all weird, pictures are missing & it's all just text..how do I attach the image all intact as I saved it..I can open & view everything as it was from where i saved it but when I send it it goes to a total different format..with no pictures?? wish I could attach something here to show you what I mean..help, this is driving me crazy..it's got something to do with Google & windows 10..it used to work before I think..

[@HelpCloud]

In the email, click the paper clip icon. It will ask to choose a file, navigate to your image and attach.

[@M.M.424]

If my file is larger then 25mb it wont sent and will be a google drive link instead , can u help?

[@HelpCloud]

Yes, that is how Google works. Any file or files that exceed the limit is sent as a drive link.

[@janetslimakYT]

Ha! I found the paperclip. For some reason all my icons disappeared but for docbox (which I hate) but if I run my mouse over where the paperclip should be, the box changes from white to light gray and the word "attach" shows up. Why did that change, I wonder....

[@HelpCloud]

Glad you found it!

[@connectwithnickandpenny]

My icons are gone. I don’t know what happened to them. Something was hit something was changed but they’re gone. I used to click on them to attach which was like a paper clip to attach my documents and that set for the fonts. That’s the only thing left at the bottom of my composed email

You need to save it first. You can try to copy/paste but the attach button functions better.

question- how do you attach an email that exceeds 25MB. I see there is a way to set it up so if the attachment does exceed 25MB it will automatically send it through google drive. I want to know how to do that? I am using GMAIL

You can forward the email. This will allow you to attach the previous email and add more to it.
