I’ve been using IPad Notes to scan documents then email them. So as soon as scanned and emailed I delete them from “Notes” But now it’s saying “Maximum attachments reached” but there is none !! Help!
iPad, iPadOS 14
Hello mat290,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
We understand that you use iPad Notes to scan documents and then send them via email. After scanning and emailing, you delete them from Notes. You are now getting a message saying "Maximum attachments reached". When you delete the scanned document, do you erase it from the Note or do you delete the Note itself? If you just erase the contents of the Note, but leave the Note, the system may still be counting the attachments to the Note. Instead, try deleting the note after sending the document and create a new Note for the next scanned document.
Let us know how this goes.
Best regards.
Many thanks for the reply. I have also worked it out. You have to also delete the sent emails which have the “Note” attached, so as you say it must still count it in the system.
