likite Posted October 29, 2005 Author Share Posted October 29, 2005 The last time I tried there were 4 files, 460kb, 252kb, 126kb, and 147kb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdnvic Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I just tried it with no problems. (Firefox) If the screen freezes it's probably a memory problem. Try using it immedietly after a reboot and see if you can send a small (20-30kb) test file. If you are running XP with anything less than 256mb of ram these things will happen once in a while. Are javascripts giving you problems anytime? cv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimdog Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 I have had similar problems in the past with attaching photo's to Yahoo email. One of the ways I have got round this is to put the photo's into a zip file and then attach the zip file(s), usually one photo per zip file. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 504 mb of ram. Just sent 2 files using Firefox - no problem. Tried again with 2 smaller files and got an error message document contains no data! I don't seem to have any problems with javascript. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
likite Posted October 30, 2005 Author Share Posted October 30, 2005 I've opened a hotmail account and sent photo files with no problem. So i think time to say goodbye to yahoo- just too much hassle and problems. Thanks for the help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thetyim Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Hotmail gives me no end of problems. Why don't you try Gmail. Just PM if you need an invite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lomatopo Posted October 30, 2005 Share Posted October 30, 2005 Why don't you try Gmail. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I have a Gmail account but always seem to have problems accessing it. I must be doing something wrong? I try both IE and Firefox, but many times the Gmail site will not load, after having tried to log-in. On those occasions where I do successfully log-in I cannot even read my mail. I click on any selection and nothing happens. Of course log-out works. What am I doing wrong?

What am I doing wrong? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sorry for the extra noise, I found an answer to my problems... I'm outside of the US. Why can't I access Gmail? Access to Gmail from countries and territories outside the United States may be limited because of proxy issues. If you're not in the US and can't log in to Gmail, try accessing your account at https://gmail.google.com. So I accessed my Gmail account at this address and all works well. I also enabled POP access and it works through Outlook 2003 for me. Edited October 30, 2005 by lomatopo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
