Mac Mail app in Sequoia won't show single page PDF previews inline when composing

same problem here since updating to Sequoia 15.0.1 — (why change what ain't broke ?) — very very inconvenient (and inefficient) — they must send another update to fix this as soon as possible

Same here, interestingly though once sent the PDF is displayed "in place" in the sent mail folder?

I am having the same issue. It is so frustrating! Are there any updates to fix the issue?

I'm having the same issue. Prior to upgrading my Mac to Sequoia 15 my mail displayed pdf attachments when sending to clients. Now just the icon appears and the "View in Place" is greyed out. I also see that once sent the PDF is displayed in the sent folder as EdwardC245 mentioned. Kinda frustrating as I've been all over the place trying to activate this setting. HELP!!!

Looks like it's a new "feature" not a bug? ugh.

Good news: it looks like the pdf is viewable inline to the recipient. And for the sender, if you click on it and hit the space bar, the preview pops up.a

Frustrating this has not yet been fixed or addressed. +1 for this affecting my workflow. I have been holding off upgrading my work computer for this single reason, then accidentally upgraded last night!

Same thing since upgrading to Sequoia. I hope they bring this back.

Same here . . . urgh!!!! So annoying:(

A Mac without great software is just a piece of shiny metal.

I'm not sure what Apple is doing. It's as if they don't know how people work in the modern world.

Their address book is archaic in design and in Sequoia they've removed the feature that allows BusyMac to function fully as an app. Companies not working together is creating a mean and dysfunctional world and Apple is part of that group. Apple's approach is arrogant, dysfunctional and not helpful. I just keep bumping into things that don't work anymore. Like the + in Safari for adding a page to a folder. That disappeared in Sequoia (Now returned) I'm going to start looking at Microsoft for business as Apple are becoming expensive toys and not good for business. They get rid of great functional ideas and replace it with stuff that has no real useful function or no function at all.

Same for me. Would be nice to have this as an optional feature.

What worked? Did you find a fix?

are these .pdf files single or multi page?

Apple Mail previews single-page PDFs inline when composing an email on Apple mobile devices and computers. For PDFs with more than one page, the PDF will appear as an icon in the email.

Our company policy just allowed me to update to Sequoia. I'm glad I found this post as I was convinced I was doing something wrong. It's strange that it seems to only be PDF files and not images and also strange that the PDF showed up in the "sent" mail but not as you are composing.

I'm running 15.1.1 and Mail 16.0.

This worked for me as well!
