![]() My solution to this problem was to downgrade to WLM 09. Your message is now ready to be e-mailed with embedded images. After all images are inserted, you can do any cleanup such as deleting attached files, To/From information, etc. Note that the image file names are in sequence and need to be inserted sequentially. Repeat this insertion process for each image. Click the Single Photo button, and select the first image from the stored location. You will see the message with a list of attached images and an “X” within a square as a placeholder where each embedded image used to be. Click the Forward button, and a new window will open. When returned, that message will appear with the previously embedded images displayed as “View slide show”. Although this procedure takes a few steps, it does work.įorward the affected message addressed to yourself. Here is a procedure I use to re-insert previously embedded images. My system is a Win 7 desktop with WLM 11. Those following this thread might be interested in a work-around. Why M$ changed the coding is a mystery, as is the fact that they apparently don’t know or don’t care about the damage it has done to WLM. 09 works because it’s coding is closer to that of Outlook Express, which I use on my Win XP desktop and which also works perfectly with the same e-mail. I just tried forwarding the same e-mail in my new “upgraded” WLM 09, and it works perfectly all pix remain in the message with text intact. Checking or unchecking the option for “photo emails” made no difference. An e-mail I had received containing about a dozen embedded pictures, all lined up vertically, would not forward correctly in WLM 12, because it automatically converted all of the pix to attachments, displayed them in the header as a “slide show”, and left blank place holders for what had been the embedded pix in the message pane along with the text that had been under them. A few minutes ago, based on your advice, I uninstalled WLM 12 on my Win 7 laptop, then found WLM 09 on and installed it. Microsoft help is so lame I stopped going there. Nobody on, my primary tech forum, had a solution. I want to thank you for providing the solution to this problem which has plagued me for almost a year. ![]() As has been pointed out to do this you must also uninstall any Windows Live essentials installed with 2011. This does not work for me in 2011 so I have UPGRADED to WLM 2009 again. ![]() Works everytime unless you are working with an email from a Yahoo mail client, then you open it in Yahoo Mail and repeat the previous procedure to send from WLM 2009. I open a new message and paste the previously copied body and pictures. This is done easily in 2009 by opening the message as a forward and then deleting the address blocks, copying the body including pictures while being careful to only highlite the ending picture or HTML. If I intend to forward to other recipients I always try to “clean up” the the prior address blocks and remove the lines. When I get emails with embedded pictures that have been forwarded several times very often they will have the blue or black lines down the side showing the times they’ve been forwarded. I did not have this problem in WLM 2009 but do in 2011. LiveMail 2011 seems to have some unique cases that causes it to not forward pictures already in an e-mail (not as attachments) LiveMail wants to put the pictures into a SLIDESHOW, and then the pictures in the forwarded e-mail are blank,Īnd non-liveMail recipients do seem to not get the pictures.Īny ideas what the problem is? Can’t find any referneces to this at Microsoft. If I send the email I wish to forward to myself and then open it in another email program – outlook express or windows mail – and forward it to someone else from either of those programs, they get the mail plus the pictures in it, no problem. I see the pictures on, say, a gmail but when I go to forward that mail with its pictures, the recipient does not get any pictures. So I am not trying to forward an AOL mail. I get almost NO mail from anyone using AOL and of the few I get, none send pictures. It happens with gmail, yahoo, you name it. It does not come in to me as a slide show from anyone else.Īgree – it is not specific to any ISP. I don’t get an email with the slide show unless I send it to myself as a check when I try a new “fix”. Every time I forward I get the slideshow treatment. Some of the embedded pictures I get are from the same ISP as I use, some AOL, and most other common ones. It is not conditional that the sender be any particular ISP. I have a local ISP (never AOL) and I have this exact same problem. Ever since I replaced Outlook Express with WLM on Windows 7 I have had the same problem.
