Need help with YahooMail

YahooMail has changed since I last used it on Wednesday (I was out of town for Thanksgiving) and I can't figure out how to print an attachment.

Can someone help me?

OK! If all you need is a quick & dirty print of the attachment, just right click your mouse.

Yahoo Mail

Even better, Click the "MORE" button & look for "PRINT".

Re: Yahoo Mail

'More' doesn't give me an option to print the attachment.

The only choice is to 'download', then the choices are to 'Save all to my Computer' or 'Save all to my dropbox'.

There is a 'View all' choice where I can "Preview" the doc, but it prints only the 1st page and as a reduced size.

download to your computer, then open and print

it should only be saved in a temporary folder.

Compared to past ability to print attachments...

...having to save to a temporary folder is a real PITA.

Any suggestions out there for a good service provider?

Yahoo Mail

When you Download to your Computer, you should have a choice to "Keep" the file message in the lower left corner on your screen. Once you save it, Click on the file so Adobe Reader can open the file for you.

Re: Yahoo Mail

Had to be a yahoo problem. Same thing happened last week. I forwarded the email to another yahoo address that I only use for a specific purpose and it printed fine at that address. Yahoo must be having some problems because last week I could log onto my account but couldn't open any emails on that account. Went to my other account and everything was working fine. After 56 minutes on hold with yahoo the tech told me they were aware of the problem, were working on it, had no idea when it would be fixed and the reason my other email was working fine was that they were probably on different "farms", a term I hadn't heard before.

I figured it out

When I clicked on 'Save to Computer", I didn't have to save the file, it made the attachment a file that I could print.
