How to attach multiple file in one mail

Attachments are handled from within each respective application, as iPad does not really have an exposed file system. There is not currently an option for multiple email attachments.

I thought Craig's explanation was spot on. The way you attach files to mail with an iPad is to open the application from which the attachment is visible. For example you would open your word processor then send the mail and attachment (doc file for example) from the word processing application.

You don't open an email app like mail, Google, Thunderbird, etc as you do on a computer then select attachments.

No attaching can be done within the email application. You must send email out from within each app, so if you want to send somebody a photo, you must do it from within the Photo App. On top of that, each app makes you do files one at a time. Not perfect, but it does work.

Actually, you can send more than one pic in one email. I found that if you select a maximum of five pics and touch "share" button, you'll be able to email them at once.

You can attach multiple pictures to an email on an ipad2. Don't know about original iPad.

Choose a photo or take a screen shot (hold down home button and button next to volume control at same time--screen shot now will appear in photos).

Go to photos and edit your picture or screen shot, save it, then hold down on the image and copy it.

Go to mail, create a new mail and paste it in.

Save you mail as a draft.

Go back to photos and select a different photo, copy it, and return to your draft, and paste it in. Repeat if you need to add more.

Anything that you can take a screen shot or have an photo of can be pasted in one at a time into that draft email.

If mail gets uncooperative, during this process, then double click on home button and quit multitasking mail, then open up mail again and send your draft. Uncooperative means gets frozen.

some of you are missing the point Is the Iphone the only smartphone you owned.

You should easly send multiable attach from within a email. Apple need to fix this. There are hundreds of people saying the same thing all over Iphone forums. You should not have to load any 3rd party app. BB make this so easy so why cant APPLE

iOS is a sandboxed operating system. If you want to leave feedback for Apple then you can do so here : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

I just downloaded an app from the App Store called Group Email and sent an email with a .docx file and a .PDF file attached. The app accesses my Dropbox account (I don't think you can send an email from Dropbox with anything actually attached; you have to provide access to your doc or folder and the recipient must create their own login at Dropbox before they can actually view your attachments). But there are ways other than Dropbox to get to the docs, photos, videos, etc. that you want to send. It was really easy.

I have used Multi-Photo, also in the App Store, for quite a while to email multiple photos.

I hope one of these provides an acceptable solution.

This is a perfect solution for pictures....Thanks

Use Good Reader app. It works without drama. It supports many cloud storage systems, WebDav, FTP transfer, USB transfer (via iTunes).

Create your document/attachments and then upload to DropBox (or wherever). Down load them to Good Reader then use GR's Manage Files tools to send an email. You can attach as many files as you like. You can even send a folder if you zip it first. This app takes away all the pain of being limited with iPad original model.

How do you access photos in Goodreader? When I open it, the only files visible are those in My Documents. Can I transfer photos from my camera roll into Goodreader so i can multiply-attach them to an email?

In GoodReader I have a camera icon at the bottom middle of of the screen which gives me access to all my photos in the Photos app - tapping on a photo copies it to GoodReader

Not sure if this was answered yet or not, but you can simply copy the individual photos from photo stream or camera roll and paste them in the body of the email for as many photos as you wish.

You simple can archive all that files in one file. Use B1 Archiver http://b1.org/ . It's a nice app and suitable for Mac.
