GMail - Cannot Attach/Upload Multiple Word or PDF files to an email
For some reason my ability to attach multiple documents (word or pdf) to an email using Gmail is not working. When I try it, it does nothing... It worked initially but somehow no longer. When it worked I could click on "Attach File" in the email and then browse to My Documents folder and Ctrl + Click multiple files and they would upload to the email. No more??
I'm using Windows 7, all updates are current. Use both Chrome and IE8... neither work.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled Flash... no joy. Checked the labs in Gmail against a working PC... same no joy. Oddly enough I CAN multiple click on txt files and it works fine. The documents I'm trying to upload are not large.
If I attach them one at a time no problems. I can attach all I want (under the 25Mb limit).
Hopefully somebody has had this issue or give me a place to look.
Thanks

Chrome uses a lot of the IE settings and would be the reason you see similar issues.
I just prefer firefox to either and is what I usually recommend and rarely has issues.
