Why can't I send an email of a Preview file from my Mac?

This is so frustrating. When I want to email a Preview file on, the Share menu shows the mail option greyed out.


Why, and how can I fix this?

Did it work before?


Only thng I can think of is...


Open Terminal and run each of these one at a time


/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Versions/A/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Versions/A/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user


sudo /System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -seed -lint -r -f -v -dump -domain local -domain system -domain user -domain network


killall Dock
