Mail Missing Plug-in for .jpg photos

Quit the application if it's running. Triple-click the line below to select it:

~/Library/Preferences

Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select Services ▹ Open from the contextual menu. A folder window should open. Move any file in that folder with a name containing the word "java" to the Desktop, leaving the window open. There should be several such files. Relaunch the application and test. If there's no change, put the files you moved back where they were. Otherwise, delete them.

Thanks Linc, worked like a charm!

Linc.

Having trouble following your instructions.

I am running OS 10.8.2 and Mail 6.2.

• "Triple-Click" to select?

• Does "Line Below" refer to "Root" Library or the "User Library"? I see a Services folder in the root library but not in the users library. In the root Services Foler I only see one item "Default Folder X Service"?

He meant on this web page. =P Triple-click means to quickly click three times, like a double-click, but with extra click; it selects an entire line of text rather than just a word. He wanted you to simply select the text “~/Library/Preferences” and then right-click on that selected text, mouse over “Services” at the bottom of the menu that appears, and choose “Open”.

That would open the folder in Finder, and it’s probably the simplest way. Simpler than saying “Switch to the Finder, open the Go menu,” etc.

By the way, the text on that line is a folder path, where the tilde ~ represents your Home folder; this is a convention from Unix (and Linux), on which Mac OS X is built.

Sorry if you didn’t need things quite this dumbed down, but hopefully this helps someone who does. =)

Thank you for the excellent information. Worked perfectly and resolved a long-standing problem displaying images in-line in the Mail app. Bravo!

I'm running OS X 10.6.8. Tried Linc's recommendation, but it did not help. Any other ideas?

didn't work for me either

This has been an error that I have tried to solve for a while. Latest recommendation I tried was restoring the System through the reboot process. It didn't work.

This simple process and instruction did the trick !!!

Thanks !
