i want to email photos as an jpg attachment, when i email photo from my iphone it always show as embedded

Did u solve this problem with the photos. Here is a simple solution that might work from you.

I notice anyone running IOS 7.1 the photos are embedded in an email and can't be extracted from outlook when sent to them from their iphone

I am running IOS 5.1.1 and the photos are automatically attached when I email to someone.

So my collegue running IOS 7.1 emails me the photos, I save them to my iphone, then I email them back to to her and she gets them as an attachment.

Personally I think it something Apple changed between IOS 5 and 7 just to drive us nuts. Why change something that works prefectly fine before.

I was just working on this problem with someone at the company I work for. For us the solution had to do with the signature used in the email address we were sending from. We both have iPhone 5's, mine is running on ios7. I currently just have the general "sent from my iphone" signature. My phone would automatically send pictures as attachments. I noticed his had different fonts involved in his signature. His would embed the photo into the email and he couldn't get it to send as an attachment. I tested my signature by adding a bold, italic, underlined character at the end of my signauter, and guess what? My photos were no longer sending as attachments, but as embeded images. So make sure you just have a normal font for your signature and photos should send as attachments automatically.. that or we were just lucky with an easy fix. Hope this helps!

I found the problem. In my gmail settings I had an automatic signature, I removed it and voila! Problem fixed!

cjkopp, you're a genius! I was driving myself crazy because I couldn't figure out why one week prior I was able to send pics as attachments and then today it suddenly didn't work. I had changed my signature!! When I changed it back, it worked again. Thank you for your post!!

Here's a workaround if you have a Gmail account.

Go to your mail on your browser (close Outlook or other mail tool).

Look in All Mail and find the email with the pictures.

You can drag the pictures and drop them into a folder and those are JPG.

BTW, this works on a PC.

Also, if you have a newer version of outlook on a PC, the options for receiving mail can be set so you can receive pictures as attachments. This works with Outlook 2013.

And it seems that the gmail work around I posted has a wrinkle depending on exactly how it was sent from the iPhone.

With some emails, the pictures can't be dragged and dropped, but you can right click and choose Save Target As and it will let you save the picture as a JPG.

Well, just to throw a wrench into this scenario, as mentioned in another thread, I sent a picture from my iPhone and a picture from my iPad. Both signatures are typed with standard text and both devices are running iOS7. The picture sent from my iPhone was received as an attachment and the picture sent from my iPad was received inline. All other mail settings are identical on my iPhone and iPad, IMAP Lotus mail. And received mail through IMAP account forwarded to my Gmail account.

Is it possible that there is a difference in how the picture got on your device? Taken by your device camera vs saved from an email from someone else?

Sometimes I will email a PDF file to myself so I can save it on my iPad rather that using iFiles to copy it over. If I email a copy of that file later from my iPad, many times my recipient will only see an inline, small red box with an 'X' in it.

Lots of questions...not enough answers.

So, following someone else's advice here, on my iPhone, I went into Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendar -> Signature, and erased my signature (which included html as a link to my website). With a blank Signature I then went to Photos -> Camera Roll, selected the image I wanted, composed an email and sent it. On my windows 8.1 client the image was no longer inline. It was now selectable and saveable as a normal attachment would be. It all has to do with your iPhone email signature and how the email client then interprets the email. You can send an image as a normal attachment from your iPhone. You just need to clear out any html links or similar from your email Signature. Bazzzah!

This maybe way too late but if you delete the signature in you mail setting the pictures will once again send as attachments.

I have a new I phone 7. I never had the embed problem before on an I phone. Now the photos embed when I email from the phone. What the heck? How do I resolve this or am I stuck with this horrible "advance" on the 7? I don't need an old answer...I need someone with a I phone 7 to tell me specifically. I use this feature all the time...and now can't?

this was the most useful answer in this thread..cheers!

Allan Sampson: Can you provide a solution or are you just really good at restating the problem??

That's what i want. Thank you cjkopp
