If the images were sent as attachments, Outlook will always show them to you
as attachments. If your senders was to send you RIch Text or HTML with
embedded images, then you'll see them in the Reading Pane, but not
otherwise.

Thank you for the quick reply.

I receive as attachment dozens of emails per day, can you tell me if the
latest version of Microsoft Office (2007) enables me to view picture
attatchments in the message body?
I cant ask for my senders to change the way they send.
I was using Outlook Express that comes with Win XP and that worked there,
but i wanted to use Outlook from Office.
So does Outlook 2007 enables me to view pics in body message?

Thank you for your time

No, no version of Outlook previews images as does Outlook Express.

Any chance this will be changed?
I use Outlook rather than Outlook Express for the calendar, but not being
able to see picture previews without clicking on each one is a real pain....

This is really annoying. I've been using Outlook and every version created
since it's inception and haven't had nearly the problem with this issue as
this latest version.

I too have people forward messages with lots of pictures embedded within..
Everyone else can see them using other products but Outlook users can't. I
can even sign onto live hotmail live msn hotmail msn live ( a little stab at
MS Marketing there) website and the message looks fine with embedded pictures
shown.. Only Outlook blocks normal usage of email. I wonder how long the
evil empire thinks this will work in their favor? This compounded with the
other Microsoft/Office issues I'm growing frustrated with will drive me to
another email client, soon. This is probably the last version of Office
I'll purchase as I'm very disappointed in this product and the problems I
have to spend my time troubleshooting (with no support from the mfg)..

I'm pretty sick of Microsoft "protecting me" from the villans that only they
can see.. They've killed so much functionality in the name of "protecting
you the consumer" that it's become almost little value to use MS Office at
all..

Sorry for the rant but I'm one unhappy MSFT customer with Office 2007 and
Vista.. Both completely suck.

I agree with Bryan. This new version is a major pain to me. I don't like
anyone making choices for me, let alone telling me that I have no say in the
choice. How about a patch to straighten out the "picture free" no view, no
save aspect of Outlook 2007 before I replace it with Thunderbird, crap that
it is as well.

"image" I also must agree about the loss of functionality. I've been trying
to find a solution to this for 9 months. When I first installed the Office
Professional Suite, last fall, Outlook worked beautifully and I was ableto
see pictures embedded in my emails. I believe it was after some updates were
applied earlier this year that I have been unable to see images, although
they are not blocked. I can copy and paste the blank box into a Word doc and
see what it is, but why would I do that?. I can pay for a Viewer program,
but I've already paid a small fortune for all of this software. I also
continue to get the General Failure: Application Not Found"error whenever I
use IE. I've had to switch to Firefox to eliminate this issue, although there
are some sites that continue to only use IE. Why is this so hard to fix? I'm
starting to believe that my life doesn't need this added stress, frustration
and wasted energy spent trying to get some solution to this issue.

There must be a fix. This is not rocket science. Where would one of you start?

Thanks for letting me vent a little.- Kathy

I'll jump back in here and make another post. I just followed some direction
given on another post about not being able to view pictures. The person
answering said it was security settings on IE. So, I went into Tools,
Internet Options and Security, changed my settings and now I can see images
in my emails. The settings do require me to Download, but it's working. Hope
this helps someone else.

Take care- Kathy

Can you tell me what those instructions are? My trust center option for
preventing the images is not selected and I too had no problem with emails
until recently.

I am running AVG 8.0 and wonder if the AVG update caused this problem.

It could be. AVG now has the ability to do more than scan your PC. It can
also block web content. Turn it off temporarily to see if that affects the
issue.

What did i miss? I went into IE and i still don't get pictures, i tried to
compare with
my copy in my office and one works one doesn't. I changed a setting but
don't know which one. Trust Center is unchecked. Anybody help? if so email
me
(e-mail address removed). thanks

Hi Federico,

You can preview the attachment content by going to Tools-Trust
Center-Attachment Handling, once you are there uncheck the Turn Off
Attachment Preview, and you can also select the programs you would like to
preview on the body of your email.

Now I have a question. Everytime I received an email with a picture, for
example print screens it shows the bos but no picture, the picture is blank.
Does anybody knows how can I fix that?

Thank you,

Brian Tillman [MVP - Outlook]

It has been months since the last post. Has anyone got a fix yet?

Care to restate the problem? Where would you like to see the images? In
the Reading Pane? In the body of an opened message? What do you see now?
What version of Outlook? Are you using Word to read messages?

JP

Go to Internet Advance Options and under Multimedia, un-check view picture
placeholders.

In addition to unchecking 'don't download pictures' in the Trust Center, go
to Internet, Advanced Options, and in the checklist under multimedia,
un-check view placeholders for pictures.
