What's new

Yahoo! photo attachments

Hello all,

Operating my ipad2 on Safari or Chrome feels increasingly like driving a Model T on the interstate in rush hour, and while Puffin is vastly superior (no page reloads) it's a pain to be constantly having to copy/paste urls.

Another problem that has cropped up recently is in regard to adding photos from my ipad2 to Yahoo! emails.

What was previously a simple 3 step process is no longer working and when i select a photo to be included, my composed email shows a large rectangle of tiny grey squares with an equally tiny box in the middle containing a blue box and a white question mark.

Recepients get a much smaller white rectangle with an "inline image" message.

My wife's account is also on this tablet and results are the same.

I have checked through various settings (sorry, no specifics) but all seem nominal. Settings advice would be appreciated.

I'm in touch with a Yahoo tech who asks that I send a screenshot of my issue but obviously every effort results in the situation described above, so no joy. I just sent him a detailed description of what I see. Standing by for his reply.

As an exercise, i'll use the upload option here and attempt to attach a photo of our new kitten.

Hmmmm, only a quickly vanishing circle when I tap "Upload a file".

Help!
 
Just discovered a workaround. if I go to photos, select one or more from the thumnails, then use the "attach" icon and select Yahoo, the photo(s) appear in a draft email with the pics as thumbnailed jpegs at the bottom of the email.

Obviously i prefer photos in the body, but this is better than nothing.

Awaiting suggestions, although from the looks of traffic here on the ipad2 forum, not optimistic.
