This has happened to me too, same exact thing.i couldn't get in but friends I was chatting with could. I assumed it was some sort of maintenance related outage. They probably have to segment their users across machines so one chunk of users might be affected at a time. But that's a total guess.

The same thing dsnt happen if you send messages by an other client

It dsnt happen with zone alarm disabled too

I don't have Zone Alarm and it definitely happened for me.

Any other firewall, Jon?
If yes, try to disable it.
Have you tried to set the gmail account on your preferred client?

hehe had the same error 704 ...,

do not worry -> cross your fingers and try again little later and it'll work

guess they have some performance probs at some times

how i can solve this problem?

It also happens to me - some messages stubbornly refuse to get opened. Luckily, the solution is to MARK THE MESSAGE AS READ. Then things go right. The error is weird, however..

The "oops" message appears at random, during various un-related task being performed... opening mail, sending mail, attaching files etc... Sometimes it wont appear for days on end... go figure.

ANYONE HAVE A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM?

I get this error code when I use my laptop.  It works on other computers just fine.  

Tried all the way mentioned above, but none is working, the gmail kept stubbonly couldn't read the message, however, the unread message turned read mark after i clicked, error code 007, damn, James bond can solved this problem ?

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhh!!

Hi guys, i think it is because of low bandwidth problem, like mine, if my upload bandwidth is low, then i can not attach file to send email, something like time out from gmail mail server..my internet connection is quite weird, my download bandwidth is high but my upload is too slow, so everytime i send email with attachment even just some hundreds of kb, the problem will occur..When i try send with attachment about 2mb at office pc which have high upload bandwidth, there seems no problem at all..btw, anybody have this kind of problem because my home internet connection is via wireless device to my office outdoor accesspoint?

any guys who master in outdoor access point internet provider, kindly give me some advice to troubleshoot this problem, with much thanks & sincerity, pls send to me, sukamto@dutacomputer.co.id

thanks a lot...

sorry, for addition, when i send mail without attachment, there wont be this problem (oops, ... (error 007)...)

I am having 2 accounts in gmail. one of the account i can login perfectly, but the other gives this wierd error message.

Disable the accelerator..thats the one causing the problem. As soon as you disable it the message gets sent. Hope this helps

Disable google web accelerator, it works. Its not a low bandwidth issue. Im on a 100 mbps link and still get the error. Works after WebAccelerator is disabled. If you dont have WebAccelerator, check ur firewal settings

Good luck!

Seems this error 007 is not only a gmail isue.

I tried another email client and it wont send message with attatchment either.

No solution yet.

I use norton antivirus but disabling doesent help.

I sent the attatchment from another pc - no problem!

Maybe a virus???

Never more norton antivirus - its a virus itselfe!

I lost a job because of not being able to send my attatchment.

Uninstalled norton and it no more error 007!

fck norton

damnit, im using firefox 1.5.

tried everything, disabled firewall,

cleared cash..

anybody knows what's going on?

Everyone is having the same problem. I am too.

What should I comment? Congrate 007. You are an absolute horror!

i am not able to send the attachment b'coz error007is occuring so what's the solution for this problem how can i send the attachment thru gmail

*sigh*

when can this problem be fixed? I got an important file to forward and I can't use GMail.

I guess Agent 007 is trying to spy on our emails.

check the size of the file u r attaching with the mail does not exceed 10 Mbs, if it does then it is the reason why gmail doesn't allow you to so and gives above mentioned error.  I went through the same situation but i figured out this, at least for my case.  try this and it should work. If required, split files in parts and then send multiple mails one after another.

Just joined the club as I am getting the same error from this morning, it is just like keep on clicking Send and some times mail will go other time you will see the popup error

I too had the same issue. fed up of this sudden mishap of Error (007)

I have to same problem, aauugghh

Everyone is having the same problem. I am too plz solve my prob. i ahve a problem with last 1 am not able to send any attachmets in my all groups. Yahho, Rediff, Hotamil, Gmail & etc. plz help me in this problem. plz mail me wt can i do?

Everyone is having the same problem. I am too plz solve my prob. i ahve a problem with last 15 days.  1 am not able to send any attachmets in my all groups. Yahho, Rediff, Hotamil, Gmail & etc. plz help me in this problem. plz mail me wt can i do?

For me this definately ended up being a size issue.  My initial mail, the one having all the problems, had several rtf documents that made the individual files each 6150kb.  Totaling about 23 MB of data.  When I changed them all to .doc files they reduced in size to around 160 kb at max, making the total attachment about 950 Kb.  Once the attachment was reduced to this size, I no longer got the "oops..007" error.

same fukin prob!! 4 hrs tryn. no improvement~! same prob happening with yahoo. cant attach the file~ a simple pdf of 8mb.

i hv NAV+NIS. latest java.. wat the hale goin on with meee!!!!!

Hi all,

We have been having this same issue all day. I run web google accelerator and saw Jørgen's post about turning it off and the error being fixed, and as soon as I switched it off then went back to gmail to try sending the email (that had previously come up with the James Bond error code), and it worked!

So my advice is to disable web accelerator if you use it, just while checking email, because the benefits of Web Accelerator are fantastic.

Jan

007 error coming . I am not able to attach my files.

HELLO TO ALL.

SORRY ABOUT THE CAPS LOCK BUT IT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GET ATTENTION.

SOLUTION....

GO TO THE MESSAGE IN "DRAFTS" AND MARK THE CHECK BOX NEXT TO THE EMAIL, THEN OPEN IT AND SEND.  WORKS FINE.  GMAIL IS JUST A BIT TEMPREMENTAL SOMETIMES.

GOOD LUCK

Hi!

I had same problem. And i think I have come to some conclusions.

The problem was, I had 100+ emails in my "INBOX". and hence it had some problme showing me the inbox.

What i did is a small tweak,

I searched the mail in inbox & put it in another lable & archieved it. So my inbox was cleared.

Then i opened my inbox and alas...its opened.

Try this out if possible.

my contact:replytojain@gmail.com

how can u solve this problem

I have same problem, what's wrong????

g mail seems to be a piece of *** as far as i'm concerned as the first thing i have tried to do with it, won't work! error 007 my feckin ***

ive been havin the same problem with error. im sooo fed up with it.... i havent been able tp post fotos for  a very loooong time!!!!!!!

PLEASE HELP MEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I stopped Google Web Accelerator, now i can send mail in G-mail. Before I can't send mail even just plain text in G-mail, and can't login in Yahoo and Hotmail.

Hope this help.

Yeah i just got error 007 and its really getting on my nerves, i ever rebooted the PC. i sent myself a test mail and it went fine, but when i try to attach a video it starts with that error 007.

im starting to think james bond doesnt like me.

GMAIL IS A ***... Thank goodness I donot use it!!

how to solve this erroe 007. pls,, any solution.?

It is definitely low bandwidth – because I can send mail without attachments and at the same time I am having trouble with my Outlook mail, which is not connected to my Gmail. It kind of has fits and starts when my internet speed is “struggling”.

the most annoying part of that error is it say try back in a few seconds. why doesn't it just say no files over 10 Megs

Hi Guys!

I have the same problem! I can't upload any file! I have this 007 problem with gmail, and problems with another homepages such as fotolog, hotmail, orkut...

I clean my cache, disable norton firewall, change the navigator (explorer to firefox)... and still have the problem! Please, if someone have the solution for this problem, contact me at fuehrich76@hotmail.com

When I got this problem in IE, I opened fireFox and tried, I did not get that.

So switching browsers may be getaround for the problem

i am unable to send file , even 10kb files, the attachment is not working, if any guys comes to knw the problem plz do inform me. vignesh.pan@gmail.com

For me, i get this message even when there's no attachment involved.  Trying to open a message from someone, and this has been two days in a row, and i still get this same cryptic and utterly useless 007 error message.  

Try this...

* Start > Run > cmd

 > netsh winsock reset

* Restart PC.

I recently uninstalled my firewall and never had the google accelerator, so I started wondering about winsock corruption. So far, so good.

Yes, seems the size is the problem. I can't remember google documenting this. 10 Megs?

Hi all,

  I am using WinXP pro - sp2 and i was getting err 008, i disabled windows firewall and it solved the problem...hope it helps u 2.

code 008 has definately nothing to do with size coz i was just sending a regular mail.

For me, i get this message even when there's no attachment involved.  Trying to open a message from someone, and this has been eight days in a row, and i still get this same cryptic and utterly useless 007 error message.  

Hey guys,

I think I found what it is.  It is the windows updater.  I had the firewall turned off and after I read all of this, I went and checked and the automatic Windows update turned it back on.  Try turning this off.

The cause is probably multiple.  I have huge bandwidth, do not have web accelerator, am not trying to attach a file, cannot save the file to draft (I get the same error message, and still get an error message.  I have had this problem randomly for over a year.  I am am about done with gmail. I guess Microsoft is not have the only idiot programmers out there.

I saw a note somewhere about the 007 code, which suggested using the https version of GMail.  As soon as I did that, my 008 error went away and I was able to send.

Hi, I had a similar problem. I couldnt login my account and appear the same error as you.

I thing that in my case the problem was some caching or corrupt information.

For some help, navegate in where:

https://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=troubleshooter.cs&problem=bugflow&selected=sign_load4

Its where I thing I solved my problem:-)

Good Luck

I disabled google web accelator and it fixed

after firewall disable & restart the pc same problem

comming

Woooow!!!!!!!            Ego is so right. I had the problem with no attachment, no firewalls or accelerator and on a fast office LAN (although our proxy server is a little difficult at times). I couldn’t figure out what was going on, then I saw Ego’s post and used the https service (which I didn’t even know existed) and hay presto it worked.

While Gmail does in deed rock the house, the 007 error is a bit generic and I don’t think it really gives any indication of what is wrong. Sadly the https service seems a little slower so if the problem your problem is related to large files this may not help you, but it’s worth a go.

i got error 007, cant send atachments, no firewall in my copu at all, problem recent, today started, before it was fine. how do i solve it.

(no, no virus either)

I don't think all the reasons for this error are the same. i'm using my gmail on a job computer with heavy firewall, but the common ports for exploring are opened. so that wasn't the problem..the last time i got ridd of the problem was by deleting the senders text & pics from the replay message. although i wasn't sending any atachments in ordinary way, i accualy was, because of the pics that were sent to me...hope this helps..

How I will solve this problem

Everything was working fine until I installed Internet Explorer 7 - I think that has something to do with it..Maybe Microsoft wants us to use hotmail only - who know?

Disable Google web accelerator worked for me too.

Thanks

Guys im trying to send a 50bytes file from gmail, and its getting this error:

oops.. the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008). Please try again in a few seconds

i have looked and looked for a solution but with no luck.. does any1 know what it could be?

I'm trying to send a movie to my gmail e-mail adrees but it give me the 007 error code... what can I do to solve it.. what did the code 007 mean? thank...

I had the same problem and I went into Tools, Security and changed my setings to Medium/High which is the recommended default settings. Now everything is normal.

I think its because you were trying to attach something that was to big for gmail.com to upload

... I unplugged my router and router switch, and then after plugging it back in and allowing it reset, I was able to use gmail as a POP3 account again.

well this error belongs to the bond. 007.....tried thousands of things and it did not work....wel if someone gets the fix please mail it across to me as well... cozy_feelin@yahoo.com

I get this error when I try to access gmail from my browser. Not trying to send anything. The roblem clearly occured when Microsoft Outlook got installed on my computer. Not solved yet.

I get error 008. When logging in, but only using my laptop. It looks very suspicious to me, everything works fine, i just get the error message

oops.. the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008). Please try again in a few seconds

I get 008, I recently installed adobe upgradre, and it started doing it right after that.  I don't know if that is related to the error. I am considering restoring back my puter to the date prior of the adobe download.  I should of know better, I hate all these upgrades...also tried the firewall deal, no luck, I am using about 26% of my gmail account.

Removed IE v.7 but still getting code 008 sporadically. Gmail Help Center says message means Gmail is temporarily unavailable. They also provide a contact link if it doesn't fix itself within a few minutes: https://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=troubleshooter.cs&problem=bugflow&selected=sign_load4.

it is so frustating when u use gmail as ur official mailing media.just get under ur skin when u r expecting important mails and the system "oops.........".plz,gmail guys live upto ur expectations.

To all-

for those of you who said it's bandwith--- IT'S NOT - i am at a major university and in the IT department so connection speed not the problem..

to mark mail "read" not the solution cuz mine pops up 8-10x's just opening the gmail page, not the actual mail. I have to click ok, ok , ok , ok , ok and so on til i goes away----again i get it 8-10 x's

IE7- we don't use it here we are on IE6 bacaue there are probs w/ IE7 and our web based apps so that's not it

this error just started for me about a week ago- i've been accessing gmail and google home page from here for 6 weeks w/no issue until now

any other Ideas?

I have the same problem, but my error code says 008 though...

"oops the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008) please try again in a few seconds"

it's started about a week ago I think...

After reading this thread, I disabled the accelerator and now everything works fine. Thanks for the tip.

This error has to do with MS updates, go back and unstall the last round of MS updates and this error will go away. I had this error and I removed the MS November updates and now I have no problems.

I think this is yet another Microsoft conspiracy!!!

I have two gmail account, one I dont have any problem but the other one I get the message

"oops the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008) please try again in a few seconds"

when I log in.

whenever I attach file 60.4KB send mail

that time this type of error coming how to resolve

I was trying to send four .bmp files at once, which ranged from 11mb to 23mb.  I continued getting error 008, and then a random error 007 thrown in as well.  I opened up the first .bmp and saved it as a .jpg (3200kb versus 24mb) and it went through, but with a delay of maybe 10 seconds.  Then, I converted the other three .bmp files to .jpg (again, 11+mb down to 3200kb or so) and attached the remaining three, and again, maybe a 20-30 second delay, and they also were delivered to the recipient and got confirmations on both.

Due to the delay in the upload, I'm thinking Google may be having an issue with one of their attachment processing servers...I dunno, but I don't have a bandwidth problem, I don't have Google Accelerator, I left my Windows and Zone Alarm fire walls up, and my AVG running the entire time.  Oh, and I'm running IE 7.0 since three weeks ago and had not seen the 008 error until yesterday when trying to send attachments that were 11mb or larger.

HTH,

Kevin

Gmail seems to have screwed itself......!!!!!!

;)

I get the error code 007 when trying to access the spam folder, the inbox works fine ?

I occasionality get 007 error when trying to send emails with attachments.  My pc does not have the google accelerator and it is on a very fast network lan as I am office based.  

I do liek gmail, just wish it was a bot more reliable, I read somewhere that there was some possible java conflict with Java runtime engines (JRE) that are installed ??

UPDATE WITH SOLUTION: I fixed the problem for me.  I now access gmail via the HTTPS site and it doesn't give me the 007 error.  The address is https://www.gmail.com.

Good luck all...

Thanks Barlo.

Great solution. Finaly we are able to rid out from this problem.

I've been using gmail for over 12 months and this erroe code 008 has never happened until tonight when trying to send an attachment.  I've never had any problems sending large attachments before..... HELP!!!

Error 007 means:

You can´t attach a James Bond movie as a file to an e-mail.

yet...

Hi,, I got this problem just last night. There are lots of people complaining and guessing what happened but I am wondering why Google does not give any right solutions?

Me too, i have this problem since 3 days. Before I had never a problem with sending attachments.

Disable Google Web accelerator.  It worked for me

Try Mozilla Firefox Browser, It solved the problem in my case

this is happening to me aswell, i have no firewall on... no virus, i have cleared my cache and have sent larger files than what im trying to send now over gmail

Yeah... thats right im gettin that stupid error. im guessing its one of gmails unresolved faults.

Perhaps theres a monthly upload to gmail??

I dont know, although i wish they would tell us what it was

and no im not using any accelerators just before anyone asks

same here.

I just don't get it though. I'm able to send some files >50 KB but I can't send a measley 30 KB file.

I've done everything possible. Cleared my cache, cookies, deleted space on my gmail account. I've disabled the accelerator, firewall but nothing works.

If someone finds a solution, please email me at yuying.luo@gmail.com

Had the same general code 007 every time we went to send an email,without attachments! All the time noticing a clock running down on the left side of the screen with a message saying we are experiencing difficulties with chat. As soon as the clock finished running it started up again. So it was a never ending problem! To cut a long story short we now use the secure https address and so far no problems. Good luck. Why don't we hear something authoritative from GOOOGLE

I cant send attachments of any size...this error code 008 is screwin me up....Pls help....

Is there a quick fix for this problem

Try this...

* Start > Run > cmd

> netsh winsock reset

* Restart PC.

I recently uninstalled my firewall and never had the google accelerator, so I started wondering about winsock corruption. So far, so good.

Thanks for this solution Roger, worked a treat for me.

Have been having problems with attachments and Firefox 1.5 for a while now.  This morning was completely unable to send a couple of 72kb PDF files.  It worked if I sent them through the gmail website directly, but had to hit send and wait a few minutes, hit send again, etc etc.

I did this for 5 seperate e-mail, took an hour of dorking around.  What a pain.

Only have the default Windows firewall running and plenty of bandwidth. Could it be, maybe I don't know, just maybe a gmail problem??? My wife and I both have gmail accounts and sometimes mine will do it and hers won't from the same machine (one in Firefox, one in IE), maybe all of the mindshare here could explain that? As an aside it doesn't matter which one is running IE and which one is running Firefox, problem persists.

It is amazing how everyone here assumes the problem is on their side of the internet. The problem is GMail. Their service has become too popular too fast. It's a "server busy" type problem. Nothing you do can avoid it. Except of course, use another web mail service. Maintaining a huge web mail service is not easy. Remember how many problems Hotmail had over the years before hordes of people left them and went to GMail? In fact, GMail's official explanation of the Error 007 code is that it means their service is "temporarily unavailable". But they are wrong when they say it will resolve itself in a few minutes. I am consistently having the problem. And it's really getting annoying.

Microsoft firewall was the problem for me but why it works sometimes and not others I have no idea.  I turn it off for firefox it is rubbish anyway time to buy a mac and solve all computer problems.

I followed the advice to disable Google Web Accelerator and now it works fine.  

Same error 008 sending *any* email from Gmail webinterace - on a brand new build of a Server2003.

It must be a blocked port or service or addin or ocx - type of thing?!

THE HTTPS VERSION WORKED! THANK GOD!

Cannot send large files or Pictures....I get "OOPS"Error

now oops (767) how do I fix....

i Am fedup with this problem i dont know whats wrong with my account it was was working well and fine. Can someone help me out

My gmail has been working fine for months. now I can only send mail (with no attachment) if I connect my 'free' thomson modem to my adsl line & use the secure protocol?? If I connect my expensive Draytek ADSL modem/router, I cant send gmail at all. I am using Internet explorer on my xp pc's & Safari browser on my Mac -all behave the same. I believe problem is with my telephone line & my upload speed to ISP. I have a great download speed (6Mb) although it does vary a lot. However, my upload speed is constantly at 330Kb - never seems to vary -although when my webmail used to work, I was getting 1.4Mb upload rate - hence my conclusion. Is everyone using ADSL - are any cable users seeing same issue ?

i have received error at that time when i send email with powerpoint attachments to someone.

error is:...

Oops..system was unable to perform this operation(error code 008)

I run Rootkit_Detective (Avert Stinger) on my pc and after searching I delete 3 keys. There were -blue- word on they names. After reboot adding attachments works properly. Sorry for my english.

Firefox.. IE 7 is just plain buggy - tried it and it worked

is that problem ever goin to be solved ??

even the HTTPS doesnt work fine with me..

Guys..Getting this OOPS..error code 008 for the past 4 months.I cannot attach any file.ANy Solutions??Even tried GMAIL team and they said to login using use the basic HTML interface...which was of no help either.Tried it with mozilla..firefox..IE 7..opera..but no results..HELP

I had error code 008 for ages and I tried EVERYTHING; I even bought a new laptop but that had the same thing happening.  Weird thing is that the rest of the Internet worked fine.  My IT friend and I finally tracked it down to my wireless router (D-Link).  I bought a new one (Netgear) and now all is working great.  My D-Link router was about 4 years old, so maybe that was the cause?  Anyway, router was the problem.

I can't even access gmail at all.

me either just quite and said:

Oops... the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 767).  HELP!!! I just got rid of my other email provider does this come back up? I restarted but nothing changes and it was working fine all week till like 5 minutes ago!!! HELP

Same problem - as we speak. I need to access documents I foolishly saved on email but no where else.

I cant access either! ITS JAN 29 PPL!!!

same problem here...not working :S error 767

oops error 767.  same things happening to me.  fwiw...

Same here 767 error code, anyone know how to fix this?

I got that error 767.. shieeeeeet

i'm getting the error code 767 as well but my friend is able to access his gmail. any idea what 767 signifies as far as maintenance or outages?

it's working now for me.

with this many people affected at once, it has to be a server maintainance issue. i've tried every suggestion i can find, but still no love from gmail. gmail, it's not me, it's you.

Yep, Chesapeake area of Virginia here. Been out for about 40 mins or so here (since 1/29/07 9:15pm Eastern)

I'm just gonna chill & see if it lets me back in later. A clearing of cookies & cache + reboot did nothing & I'm using the latest version of Firefox.

i got error code 767 this morning and fixed the problem after cleaning cookie and cache in IE.

i agree it's server side issue. since i didn't do anything for IE on the other PC and found it also works fine now.

This solution below with MTU settings helps me to solve to my problems with Gmail (cant send and read messages).

http://fird.kucing-kelabu.com/2006/12/01/gmail-007-008-error-messages-and-mtu-settings/

MTU setting was my problem too - Original modem from TalkTalk (Thomson 330) was a problem..doesn't work properly on their ADSL2 setup (according to TT). They sent me a replacement modem (SmartAX MT882) & all of a sudden I can send any mails I want. I interrogated the modem & it turns out that the MTU setting in new modem is 1413...not 1432 as TT L2 support told me it should be.

I've now set my Draytek MTU to 1413 & I can now send receive ok with my wireless setup.

i had oops, error 767 and could not access my account atall,

I deleted my cache (in Internet explorer 7) by going into tools, internet options, general, browsing history, delete, and then delete all, close, ok, and it started working fine again.

use this link to login https://gmail.com and the problem will be solved

I've been getting the "Oops..." message with error code 008 ever since I installed EI7 (XP Pro SP2) when I try sending reasonably large attachments (eg pictures JPG ~ 4MB).  I download Firefox 2.0 and I was able to send the email without any difficulty.

https has worked for me...thanks for all the advice. Not good having Yahoo AND Gmail problems. Yes, time for a Mac!

Hi folks,

 The https didn't work for me (certificate error) But, my oops 008 error was an upload bandwidth problem for sure.

  My wife was trying to send a gmail with 10 pics ~1 MB total...kept getting the 008. We share a router with a friend upstairs. I went and checked his rig and found Bitorrent was blasting .avi's out at my max DSL upload rate. I shut down the torrents, came back downstairs and sent the gmail no problem. (Could have saved my wife an hour of frustration if I'd known!)

  Check your upload bandwidth and you might solve your prob. Good luck,

-Al

I am amazed that Google has done nothing to solve this problem that so many of their users are having. Welcome to the real world, Google! We have given you a lot of love so far, now it is your turn.

I had the error code 008 while trying to send 5-6 files of about ~200kB . I closed BitComet and it worked ok...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!SOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After you log-in, change the 'http' in the URL to 'https' and it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting this OOPS..error code 008 for the past 4 months.I cannot attach any file.ANy Solutions??Even tried GMAIL team and they said to login using use the basic HTML interface...which was of no help either.Tried it with mozilla..firefox..IE 7..opera..but no results..HELP

https works fine with me as well

SOLUTION TO ERROR CODE 008 !

Well, a pretty sleazy one, but it works:

I couldn’t send a file through gmail, so

i sent my self the same file through a different email address (yahoo)

and then forward it to my mailing list from gmail.

That put an end to 3 wasted hours.

Until someone from gmail wakes up and take care of that problem

Good luck

 Despondingly,I meet the same problem recentlly.

  I hope someone know the reason and can help me to solve the problem.My mail address is zh.arthur@gmail.com.

   Thanks very much.

problem is caused by google web accelerator

disable it

stupid thing is, gmail is their own product

I have NOT been able to send an email over the past 10 hours. The irritating message keeps popping up and surprisingly says, "Try again in a few seconds".

After doing a search, I am amazed that this problem has been around for a long time, but has not been resolved.

Google and its Gmail are slowly but surely destroying their credibility with this long outstanding problem.

I have been having the same "oops error code for a while. Fortunately by using the Gmail help discussion link here below I found a solution to this problem: http://mail.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=troubleshooter.cs&problem=bugflow&selected=attach9#step1.

Please check that link and read carefully

This problem has been occuring alot for the last 3 days.

I cannot log in for a wholday now. Get the oops 766 message first but now it is 767. I tried everything: cleaning cache, diable firewalls and so on, nothing helps. While I can log in with other account. https does not do the trick either. Is there a solution?

Same here 766, 767, blank screens with http, https, basic html mail, Gmail on the cell phone also broken. A friend's account works on my machine. I was very pleased with GMAIL but not any more.

I having the 766 message (now 767) today. Started around 9AM Eastern time. Frustrating....

me too - it's now 1 pm CST and I've been getting the message since 10am.  

definitely a problem on their side with one of their sites- i have 3 accounts and can log in to 2  of them. One of them has been down since a little after 8 o clock for me

same here - error 767 for a few hours already

Now, my friend who was able to use gmail all morning when I could not is also getting the 767 error message. Seems the mess is spreading as opposed to getting fixed.

767 message as well, hasn't worked for me since 4:30 this morning

mailed gmail with another one of my email addresses, I need this to not be happening

I gave up and redirected my primary email address away from GMAIL to another address I have.

GMAIL came back up for about 2 minutes here, then began to fail again. I caught the up time when the notifier beeped. In the short time it was up it appears that many of my emails were likely lost. This is BAD!

I can log in now, but none of the messages I know should be there have arrived in my inbox. Sent a test message from another account to my gmail just now and it did not make it to my inbox either. Sending from gmail is not working either. Message gets lost in cyberspace - or my likely in an outgoing queue on gmail's servers.

Easy solution: I like gmail and wish to keep it as my primary address. After the recent gmail down time I decided to create a forwarding instruction for incoming email. I simply receive a copy of the email in my gmail inbox, and send another copy to a seldom used email address. Go to settings-accounts, then choose the option. It works fine!

I Stopped my GOOGLE WEB ACCLERATOR and this error stopped too...

After living with Error Code 008 for over a year, I finally discovered this weblog.

Accessing gmail via "https://mail.google.com"

did the trick.

FYI .. I had ZoneAlarm running as my firewall and did not have the Google Web Accelerator installed

Thanks everyone

oh wow! this https:// thingy worked for me after 10 very frustrating days of trying to send a .zip file!!!!! thanks!!!!

Such type of problem comes due to low bandwith.  Dont upload or attached heavy size files.

Hi, I got the 007 message.

I found a way to solve it.

First, you log into your google account (not google mail).

Once you're in, you can choose to go to "mail" or "setting", choose "setting".

Once you're in, scroll down to bottom, click the "Basic HTML"

You'll be seeing your mail in basic html layout, delete some of the mails in your inbox.

Then try to click "Switch to Standard View" on top.

If this doesn't work, try go thru the same process and delete more mails before switching to Standard View.

Good luck.

luogo interessante, soddisfare interessante, buon!

Stupore! ho una sensibilit molto buona circa il vostro luogo!!!!

I Stopped my GOOGLE WEB ACCLERATOR and this error stopped too...

It's the same for me.

I'm not sure, but it's possibly a browser problem.

Try Mozilla Firefox. It might work.

turning the web accelorator off really works!

SOLVED!!! After stop accelerator!!! YES!!

Try turning off/uninstalling any email notifiers.  

I had the 008 problem uploading a large attachment with IE. Switched to Firefox, and it seems to have worked.

I just had this problem with the damn oops... thing.  It was 2 files, 9mb at most and IE wouldn't send it.  Poped open FireFox and wham, it sent.  IE suxxors

I had this problem too, tried the https logon, worked!

Looked like it had something to do with security certificates in windows firewall, ingored the warning, and voila!

oops... the system was unable to perform your opration(error code 008).

please try again in a few seconds.

i am facing this problem

aprakash1967@gmail.com

u people are stupid, its cuz the file is too big, stupids!

so I got this problem(007)for the first time today (Mothers Day)and I thought it was congestion. After retrying several times I did a search and was brought here. After reading all the blogs(unlike the Idiot above me)I realized that If 50byts would not send It was not a size issue. I don't know if the https will work however because my file was 40.2MB compressed and zipped I decided to try a large carrier. As it turns out Pando sent it just fine. Pando is a separate mail service that has nothing to do with msm, yahoo, gmail, firewalls, etc. So give that a try if it "Just has to go out"

By the way and I apologize, I forgot to mention this in the above blog but I use Mozilla Firefox and thats where I got the message so it's not a browser problem either.

sir not open gmail pleals help

i found i got the message when i sent an attachment biger than  gmail allows. so i split it and it worked without that message "oops........."

pagine piuttosto informative, piacevoli =)

ok. i had the same problem and i tried different things: originally i was attaching a 55kb word document and every time i got this message... Then i copied the file into notepad (.txt) and it worked fine. Totally weird because it's not the first time i was attaching word documents... i know it still doesn't solve .mov or .avi problem but may be helpful for ppl who urgently need to send their e-mail...

just for info: on firefox, no web acc, measly 55kb doc file and i got oopsed... i'm adding this  for explanation of my previous entry

plze tell me the solution for the above error as early as possible

I am getting an error with Gmail while sending an attachment of 15 kb file. The error displayed is

"oops...the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008)

What could be the problem and what is solution.

SOLUTION TO "oops...the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 008)" error

1. Open explorer.

2. Goto Tools>internet options > privacy tab.

3. Move the settings slider to low.

This solves the problem.

aghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh   the last solution dosn`t work in my pc :S

mail.google.com/.../static.py...

I am getting this problem for past three days....... Don' know what to do...

Gmail offers an encrypted site for extra security. Because browsers and security applications are more likely to trust encrypted data, visiting Gmail through its encrypted login will often resolve issues.

Logging in with this secured URL will surely solve the problem. Atleast it did for me https://mail.google.com

HEY EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!! HERE ON MY COMPUTER I SOLVED THE PROBLEM!!!!

The stupid Windows has a great BUG with JAVASCRIPT.

You install the PATH: support.microsoft.com/.../814078

if you are running securemaker, disable intruder securer.

My gmail account shows Oops error  when i send any mail with or without attachments...

I've been using GMail as my primary e-mail for the past month, and it's worked pretty well. Searching e-mail is nice, the tagging features are helpful (for instance, I added a tag for a client which automatically includes every e-mail which contains contains their domain name), and it integrates well with the Google personalized desktop.

However...

Last week I wasn't able to access my e-mail for most of an afternoon. I kept getting a Javascript popup that said:

"oops...the system was unable to perform your operation"

I checked with friends via chat, and they were able to get their GMail just fine - it was just my account. I tried other browsers, cleared cookies, even tried other computers; same message. Searches revealed others who'd had the same problem, but no solutions which worked for me.

This was a problem, since my e-mail contained conference call numbers, important project information, etc.

GMail does provide a POP interface, so I'll probably run an e-mail client to keep a local e-mail copy in case this happens again. I'm posting this in case someone has come up with a solution to this problem and to recommend an offline e-mail backup (which is just good sense, anyways, in case the internet connection goes down).

Hi All,

Thanks Barolo ... I was really pissed of bcoz of this error 007 from the past one week... your suggestions worked for me and hope it works for others as well... Your help is greatly appreciated...ANAND

I get this message whenever I have an attachment. It's not a big attachment (140 KB) so all you folks saying that it wont work with a big attachment, read again. Also, I do not and never had the Google web accelerator, so don't assume that scenario. I used Yahoo and it worked. I switched over to another pc with a faster speed and it worked finally in gmail. Gmail has some upload bandwidth issue. Read again.. GMAIL HAS ISSUES WITH UPLOAD BANDWIDTH. PLEASE FIX GOOGLE ENGINEERS, BECAUSE IN YAHOO IT WORKS. I'm fed up with this ooops excuse for attachments.

well there are some answers for 007 there but what about 008 ppl

how do you send multiple files without attaching each one

I'm having the same problem,and it's really bothering me...

did you find a solution yet!

it's happening when i upload files.. yet , only uploading PDF files..

confused.

"oops...the system was unable to perform your operation"error code 007

I checked with friends via chat, and they were able to get their GMail just fine -

I am anable to open my email

MY 007 ERROR HAS BEEN SOLVED WITH HTTPS://WW.GMAIL.COM

It did help with the solution changed the 'http' in the URL to 'https' or used https://www.gmail.com, the error dispeared and my gmail works well. thank all of you

This problem is temperory in nature will resolve with in a few minutes. This is said by google support on this issue.

This problem may be caused by traffic congestion in the internet severs that are heavily loaded.

I cannot send my homework to my teacher because of this. GMail has been giving me the error for 4 days now.

I AM GOING TO GET SOME EFFING BAD GRADES IF YOU DON'T FIX THIS RIGHT NOW! Bokay?

I have recently added a wireless router and since this I am getting the same error. I can log into my gmail account, however, it seems to hang and then I get this error. I have logged a call with my  router provider to investigate. Has anyone raised this problem with Gmail to look into?

It is being a headache, using gmail but could not compose mail anymore and what's that 007? It isn't a James Bond movie so why is this problem in gmail? I am too much bothered trying every option to compose but... Please solve this. I am on the midway to my project and if it is not gonna work it will ruin me.

HELP!

this 007 is taking a shit outta me people...am really pissed up....wha are we supposed to do....tried every damn darn nerdy stuff and still no results.  (oops,....I love gmail-error code 420!!!!)lol

i am getting the 008 error code. even when i go to the other https site that people have suggested nothing changes, its still gmail. my computer won't let me download firefox and gmail won't help. its only when i try to send music, video or zipped files. i tried making them read only but that didn't work either. what is web accelerator? i don't know if i have it or not and so don't know if its on or off and how to turn it off. i have tried everyone's suggestions and nothing has worked. please help!

I m also getting same error

I m not able to log into my account. when ever i loginto my account it gives the same error. wat to do..?

Disabled Web Accelerator and everything's ok

all files you upload are filtered and grows about 30% in size, meaning a 10mb document will be 13mb all together, so try sending only low size files or try another client.  I recieve the error message when I try to send a large file on gmail, but when I send it via my Business account I dont have a problem. Also like everyone has been posting, check your internet firewalls and all those little icons that at the top of your page (if you have the gmail or yahoo or msn webbar) each have differant settings and if that still doesnt work then your computer oficially sucks,

best regards to the rest

sorry your computer doesnt suck, your internet does

Ha HaHa

Size matter... well there is alot different reason for 008i guess... try all the solution and u will get one right... my problem was the size of the document... thats all ::)

Try to set the MTU value in your router configuration to  1492.

008 problem is now solved (for me  :-))) )

While i am opening my gmail account the same error has been displayed.

"oops...the system was unable to perform your operation Error code :007"

I tried other browsers, cleared cookies, even tried other computers; same message had displayed.

Kindly advise.

Use https instead of http in the URL. No more error 008!

Yep, enter  https://mail.google.com - worked for me!

I changed the attachment size to just under 30 megs and it worked.

My wife had the 007 Oops message.

The reason: I had recently (last couple of days) upgraded the firmware in our Netgear router/gateway to the latest and "greatest" release. It now comes with a Trend security package built-in. Turning this on fucks up file transfer of .doc (i.e. Word) files. Turning it off and Gmail gets - and can send email with attachments as it used to. My problem was the Trend security software was far too zealous ! Not a bad thing I suppose, err on the side of caution, but bloody frustrating for a few hours !

hi all

 this problem occurs when u try to send a large file..i am telling u an alternate if want to send word file and you r facing such type of error...its better upload your word file google doc..and send it..

this errer many times promts me

i disabled the  google web accelerator and still doesnt work!!!

I was suddenly failing to send even small attachments - I tried Ego's trick of using the https version of Gmail in the address box, and it cleared the problem immediately. Thanks, Ego!

past 3 days i m facing this problem.plz help me for resolved the same. error code 008

past 3 days i m facing this problem.plz help me for resolved the same. error code 008

Glad to find this... had the same problem all day long, with no attachments and nothing changed in firewall, very short emails addressed to 1 or 2 ppl.

https link above solved the problem.

Hi all, I think simply logging out and re-establishing a new session may be enough to work around this issue. I just tried this (using https) and it's working fine again but I'm fairly sure I was using https in the first place too. Anyway good luck.

i've tried the https url and i still get the same error. i wonder would it have anything to do with the NUMBER of emails sent?  2 days ago i exceeded the limit and my account was blocked for a day.  or is it simply an internet rather than a gmail problem?

i have encountered a problem when i want to login my gmail account

Me too on the 008 error, happened when sending a 64mb attachment but not when sending 3mb attachment. i think in my case its to do with size. ...i only switched to gmail because i was sick of hotmail screwing up with attachments and i distictly remember gmail boasting deftness at handling such things. what was the name of the site? transferlargefiles.com?  

I had Oops problem for 2 days(#008). I was not able to send any mails w/ attachments. I'm using Vista, IE7, no accelerator,Vista firewall.

"https://www.gmail.com" is working for me finally. Thanks.

re: GMail: "oops...the system was unable to perform your operation"

Just stop "Google Web Accelerator"

worked straight away.

How can I stop "Google web accelerator" ?

i'm facing the same problem error 00. i read all above messeges but still i'm facing the same problem plzz help me....

Thanks to Ego who wrote as early as on 8th Nov 2006 to try the https version.this suggestion to use https instead of http has solved our misery(we were going thru this for the last few weeks. suggestions like change the PC,change over to yahoo mail ,upgrade winproxy,change operating system ..and what not)

I too got this error message while chatting to one of my friend in cincinnati, but 007 clicks my head; i thought it would be a spyware. Soon i disabled my network card for a while and then enabled it again.

""""Now i got my gmail back on the same place i left""".

I m facing this problem how to solve it.

I am getting this error from past few day when I am in office when I go home it works fine. I tried all the available soulution on this page and I even tried changing MTU values. Nothing is working. I lost all hope thinking of changing the email to Yahoo or Hotmail.

it works fine if u running XP, but im getting the 008 and 007 error when running Vista. but still dunno how to solve it

I'm getting an error code 102 -server problem.  I can't send,but sometimes I can recieve.I have a lot of spam on the account, but gmail will not let me delete.  Very new HP-windows vista.  Any fixes??  Snow bound in the Rockies.

I'm sory, but i don't use nor have Gmail and i Have this error !!!

this is a malware or a virus !

And i want to know the way to kill that.

hi all, after spending 2weeks cursing and seeking the web for a solution I found this in another blog, and guess? it works for me.

try to login from the url

https://mail.google.com

and proceed normally. amazing!

The same thing when trying to send masages with atachments . no matter how small.

Will move to yahoo in this keep bothering .

maybe if we all go away from gmail they will

pay attention . (sorry if any mistakes i'm learning english) .

I tried everything above listed, but discovered, THAT THE PROBLEM was Sygate firewall 5.4.

gmail works fine, without sygate on. though i loved sygate, had to uninsall it and now i use Comodo.

works just fine

saala gmail gaandu ho gaya hai

I have the same problem. It started few days ago without me changing any settings. I have no accelerator, no firewall, no virus. I've tried Opera, Firefox, IE. I deleted cache and all cookies. I've also tired https:// - nothing worked. It's definitely not problem on my side. Wake up Gmail!!!

The file attached has by its side in blue 'remove'. The attachments cannot be sent to the receiver of the e-mail. G-mail worked very well for the past 2 years and now I face this problem, how do I send attachments?

GMail: "oops...the system was unable to perform your operation"

Here you have collected comments only !

How about your experts suggest some solution ?

Try this alternate url ;)

https://mail.google.com/mail

notice the " https" ... for Some strange reason this does work... ;)

Good luck!

Infuriating problem, tried just about everything suggested in this v. useful blog but no good until MTU reset in router (Talktalk HG520) to 1413 - originally "0", i.e. automatic. As it will tell you if you forget, TCP MSS setting also needs to be changed (from 1400) to 1373.

Brilliant! Good luck everyone.

I cant my use my gamil account becose the error is oops...the system was unable to perform your operation" any one help me ????????????

The attachments cannot be sent to the receiver of the e-mail. G-mail worked very well for the past 1 years and now I face this problem, how do I send attachments?

I have encountered the same problem since the zip file has password lock. After I remove password lock, I could use it perfectly. It may cause due to the reason of not be able to scan the file.

There is an entry in the troubleshooting section of gmail about this issue (102 errors). It has helped me.

HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WON'T OPEN EMAILS.MY SOLUTION IS REMOVE POWER TO MODEM AND REINSERT DO NOT TURN POWER OFF AT POWER POINT. THIS WORKS FOR ME BUT I DON'T KNOW WHY

I am facing this problem when i try to send mail with attachments, but when i send mail without attachments it works just fine. Please help me on this.

Im trying to send a .mov file and it says "the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 007) please try again in a few seconds" i tryed zipping it up and nothing. I am on dial up but this was happening also when i had hi speed. i dont have any extra firewalls besides xp one,, im using free avg which is out of date. i dont have any Google Web Accelererator. I just want to send a video i made to my friend...

Seeing how far back the posts on this problem date it would appear that none of the reasons  posted are correct and I can't help but wonder why the Google team hasn't fixed this yet- the first post was NOV 2005!!!!!

This just started a week ago on my home, work and laptop computers it's a daily event and is getting pretty old. I have no firewall, I have no accelerator not sending 10 minute videos attachments or no attachments not relevant as it hapens everytime I open Gmail. I always have to close and re-open. C'mon Google hop to it!!!

@Arcero

Great workaround! The https:// worked first time. The next time I tried with my usual link (non https) it worked fine too, but I kept getting Error 008 until I swapped in the https.

I don't believe that this issue's associated with installed security software, because for me the problem is totally intermittent.

i'm getting this on a CLEAN XP installation, SP3 and all Windows Updates installed, McAfee VirusScan Enterprise... no firewall apps besides XP, no content-filtering apps. Default browser security.

I've tried both HTTP and HTTPS, no luck.

So I've switched to Mozilla Thunderbird using IMAP, and it's working great. Hmmmmm...

Getting error 007 when sending video files. anyone had any luck for the solution?

i thought gmail was the Sh*t until this happened. fed up now. Stupid ass google.

my computer error massege on gmail so please help me error 008 thank u send my email johnmalle@gmail.com

Yesssss....https: works. Thanks.

I've got an error code 008 when I was trying to send an email for a month ago, then I thought there was a server problem of gmail at first. Then I tired again the next day, the same error I got. Gmail help centre said there is conflicting the software in my pc with gmail. But I didn't install anything before that code error. So, I think there will be any problems of IE7 therefore, I tried to send emails using Firefox, but I've got error code 103 because of the security problem and advice change to https:// But I have been using https: only. Until now, that gmail cannot be used and sometimes it is so slow for loading from here to there.

I have tired too many ways above methods but they are not worked.

Any advices?!!!!!!!!!

Thank You. I had the problem error #008.

using https has solved the problem.

Thank You once again.

FOR THE FABULOUS ADVICE,AND FOR GRABBING MY ATTENTION

FROM THE REST OF THE CONSPIRACY

IT WORKED

.

‘Oops.... not sent. (#008)’

My work-around your mileage may vary.

I receive this error intermittently when I connect from all over the world with various PCs, virus, spy and firewall interfaces. Solutions other than using an alternate email program:

- Allow Gmail to fully load ‘all’ the attachments (all go blue) before you send.

- Save in ‘Draft’ first and then open Draft allowing all the attachments to load then send.

Gmail needs to address the ability for us to disengage the Draft function which appears to be part of the problem. Other email programs have the same boggle recently but after letting them fully load the attachments they usually work.

Why is this happening...I turned off firewall that makes no sense!!!

is there any way to prevent this? I've been getting similar errors the past weeks. Has anyone found a solution/explanation for this?

and this has been happening since 2006?? sheesh

I am having the problem for more than a week now. Tried different PC's, different locations & internet connections. Nothing seems to help. I used to love GMail, but i'm really starting to hate it now.

I am using LINUX (Knoppix 3.7) and I have had the same "oops" problem!   I don't need any stinking antivirus at all and still I get this message.  Whats up with that?  -Bob

"oops...the system was unable to perform your operation"error code 008

i am facing this problem the momnt i open my Gmail in Vista/ xp.

i am unable to use my gmail chat also

please help me correct

this problem.

i wish that gmail team resolve this idiotic error

mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=12336

That's a support page that will tell you exactly what the problem is.

I had the same problem,  I resolved it by losing the browser and relaunching it. Works just fine. I guess google must try and resolve this bug.  That might help all of us.

We also face this problem in the time of attachment,We think its the problem of ie,we in stalled  latest firefox the same problem exits,cleared all temp and every thing,if any one have the solution for this?

i cnat send the email from gmail

dude, it's been four years (almost) since your first post, and the problem still exists! my advice: ditch gmail for good. i'm getting the same 'oops' message, and am just relieved it's not my primary acct.

I've reported this problem previously and it continues to be a persistent problem --- many dozens of times every day, I see this error message:

oops --- the system was unable to perform your operation (error code 6400). Please try again in a few seconds.

Often I have to click through that 5 or 6 times (or more)) before I can proceed.

I see dozens of other people reporting the same problem.  I've gone through all the recommended steps to try to get relief from this annoying problem, but it just continues.  This has been going on for months.

happens in firefox too...I have never had this error, and I've had gmail since it came out.

i want to send some videoes to my friends,but i am not able to do it.when i try to send some photo and video then i received a message that,system was unable to perform your operation due to oops error code 008.i have a request to you,that plz fix this problem(oops error code 008)

Last 3 days I am trying to open the gmail account but depressed me by sending message like "oops...the system was unable to perform your operation". whatever mail i was receiving was an important which should not go off. Pl. try to solve the problem as soon as possible.

GUYS , probably it could because of the size of attachments that you send ...I faced the same probs , but I was able to send emails with out attachements.

pls tell me what to do in step by step.i want your guidance

pls answer me immediatly. i am in hurry

If you're getting error code 6400, it has nothing to do with firewalls / attachments.  Just retry sending it after a minute or so (may have to try several times). The prob seems on Gmail side..

I get it all the time.  Usually works after 5 minutes.  Very annoying however.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it

seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.

You obviously know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something informative to read?

Very informative blog.Really looking forward to read more. Awesome.

Hey there! I know this is kinda off topic but I

was wondering which blog platform are you using for this website?

I'm getting fed up of Wordpress because I've had issues with

hackers and I'm looking at options for another platform. I would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

Hi my family member! I wish to say that this article is awesome, nice written and come with

approximately all significant infos. I'd like to see extra posts like this .

Excellent weblog here! Additionally your site lots up very fast! What host are you the usage of? Can I am getting your associate link to your host? I want my site loaded up as quickly as yours lol%7

I'm extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one these days.

Greetings! Very useful advice within this post! It's the little changes which will make the largest changes. Thanks for sharing!

They attract, engage and indulge people from all regions to fulfil one target of theirs and that is

to be entertained. Tethering can bail one out of emergency situations if the

internet connection at home is down. You can protect your HTC machine against dust and scratches with the help of this case.

A refreshing and soothing all-day or after-dinner delight.

However, if the toner is made from ingredients, natural and contains no alcohol, then immediately begin to moisten.

At home, I stared at the leaves as I tried to decide how to brew them.

Attractive section of content. I just stumbled upon your site and in accession capital

Anyway I will be subscribing on your augment and even I success you get admission to constantly quickly.

Apply coconut oil to irritated or chapped lips as well; it's edible, so it's

safe and so healing to the lips. If you want to

avoid beauty products with harsh chemicals, petroleum-based components, and artificial

ingredients then an all natural virgin coconut oil product is perfect for you.

Natural treatments for dry skin are the best choice today rather than some of the harsh chemical treatments out there.

Its like you read my mind! You appear to know a lot about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.

I think that you could do with a few pics to drive the message home a little bit, but other than

that, this is great blog. A fantastic read. I'll definitely be back.
