Topic: How to send attachments in Outlook emails?

Did anyone else's email (mine was hotmail) recently change to Outlook?

I still have my hotmail address so at least I didn't lose all my contacts.

The problem I haven't been able to figure out is how to add and send an attachment with an email. It used to be so easy with hotmail.

Outlook has an attachment button that looks like a paperclip but it is inactive. I can't get it to do anything.

I've been trying to figure this out on my own and it is very frustrating. I've not good at dealing with stuff like this.

I use attachments to communicate with my doctors, sending copies of labs and such.

I have a Mac mini that is only a couple years old. Any ideas?

Thanks so much!!!!

I am giving up on hotmail / outlook. It's incredibly difficult, and it makes my computer run slower, hotter and louder.

Their new layout is an absolute mess. They look to be totally moving into a more difficult phase with their recent changes.

I have my hotmail for all non-personal connections now but even that is impossible. I will be moving away from that ASAP.

I have had a gmail account for closer friends for a while now and really like the way that works. Much easier in all ways, and easier on the eyes, too.

You might set up 2 or 3 different accounts for the various communication tiers you have.

There is one that I tried to give only to friends whom I thought would never send out group emails. But that did not last long. I hate it when my email address is included in lists of others when someone sends group emails but it's already been messed up.

If you want to keep one "pure" account be sure to tell the friends in that circle to use ONLY the BCC function when they send to multiple addresses.

I hate Outlook. I tried it ONCE and was done.

Can't you just open a new Yahoo account? Our phone/internet company uses Outlook, but I refuse to do so.

So .. I know nothing about it!! [Big Grin]

and of no help to you! [Big Grin]
