Cannot download zip file

Why is it that with Firefox 8 I cannot download a zip file that was sent to me as an e-mail attachment? When I select the zip file a pop asks me if I want to 'open with' or 'save file'. Whichever option I choose the file is named attachment.ashx (this is not the name of the zip file I received).
The only way I have been able to resolve the problem so far is to open the e-mail using Windows Explorer, from which I can retrieve the zip file correctly.

I have the same problem since updating to Firefox 8 on my MacBook Pro. Now all files download as .ashx, sometimes I can open them via Word, but often they won't open at all. Previous versions of Firefox opened them in the appropriate application and saved them to the desktop. This has become such a problem that I have abandoned Firefox and have returned to Safari .....

  • When I download a page a message says cannot find zip file directory

    When I try to download a page a message appears after the download time saying in part that "cannot find zip file directory". This message appears on all downloads I attemp.

    Here are typical layouts for the iTunes folders:
    If you have upgraded from version 8 (or earlier) to iTunes 9 (or later) at some point, then your media folder (everything inside the red outline) may still be called iTunes Music instead of iTunes Media. The extra Music folder inside the media folder is used if you have allowed iTunes to Upgrade to iTunes Media Organization (iTunes 9) or used File > Library > Organize Library > Reorganize files in the folder "<Media Folder>" (iTunes 10). Depending on your choices for Keep iTunes Media folder organized and Copy files to iTunes Media folder when adding to library plus a little bug in which one build changed the name of the file storing the choice of layout it is quite easy for some of your files to be organized according to one layout and some the other.
    It is possible that in the upgrade to Lion iTunes has been installed with the current default options while your library is based on an older structure. Use Get Info. on a missing track, click cancel when asked to locate it and look at the path given on the summary tab. Now look for the actual file with Finder. Post both paths back here and we can try to make sense of the problem.

  • Cannot download Mp3 files and some other format

     Hi people,
    I cannot download Mp3 files and many other files. I cannot update my Ovi Store app and pretty much everything else. I can download pdf and zip using opera but almost everything else (including mp3 and sis files) redirects to Nokia browser which just freezes no download. I have tried another same model phone E72 and no problem.
    It seem my browser is corrupt and can't find way to reinstall.
    Also why don't nokia let us download with browser of our choice? I would rather use opera than inbuilt one

    Apart from loss of data issue in the circumstances you may have to either "hard reset" or re-install existing firmware to eliminate possible software corruption.

  • Problem on windows xp with downloaded zip file

    Hi,
    I have written a JSP to download file which is as follows
    try
    response.setContentType("application/download");
    response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=<FileName>");
    int iRead;
    FileInputStream stream = null;
    try
    File f = new File(<FilePath>);
    stream = new FileInputStream(f);
    while ((iRead = stream.read()) != -1)
    out.write(iRead);
    out.flush();
    finally
    if (stream != null)
    stream.close();
    catch(Exception e)
    //out.println("Exception : "+e);
    After downloading zip file, could not extract files on windows XP by using any tool or built-in extractor i.e. compressed(zipped)folders (error: compressed folder invalid or corrupted).
    But this works on win2k or win98
    How can i work with it or can anyone tell me a solution to handle such a problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    This could be a problem with the built-in ZIP program in Win XP - it's possible that the ZIP you are downloading (uploading?) is simply incompatible with the XP program. In Win 98 & 2000, you would have to use your own ZIP program, e.g. Winzip, and that can handle more formats that the XP program.
    Try installing the same ZIP program that you have on w98/2k on your XP machine, and see if you can open the uploaded file using it.

  • How to create a Web Dynpro Project from Downloaded zip file?

    Hi,
    I have been working in Java Web Dynpro for last 1 month but not able
    to create any Web Dynpro from Downloaded zip file?
    Can anybody tell me how to create a Java Web Dynpro Project from
    Donloaded zip code?
    Regards
    Kaushik Banerjee

    Hi Kaushik,
    You can add the existing zip file into your workspace by the following way -
    First open the NWDS and create a new project by clicking file -> new -> Project -> Simple -> Project
    and then File -> Import -> zipfile and then browse the zip file into the newly created project.
    or else you can also unzip the zip file into a folder and then Use the option of Import an exisitng project into workspace. You can find this in the File-> import -> Existing project into workspace. and then use the Browse option to browse to the existing folder.
    After importing the project you need to rebuild the project

  • How do I get a download zip file from firefox to my desktop

    I download zip files from different web sites and they go to the download folder in firefox, but I can't access them to open,unzip, or work with them on my computer offline. How can I move them from the download folder in firefox to my computer desktop?

    Hi,
    In order to open ZIP files, you have to download an app to enable the opening of the ZIP. Here's one you can use: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.winzip.android
    Next, when you install that, open it and go to your Download directory. It should either be in sdcard0, sdcard, or sdcard1, then go to Download.
    Once you find it, touch and hold the file, then click '''Unzip here''' and it will extract the files in the ZIP folder.
    Let me know if this works!

    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder

    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    My Windows7 PC crashed and I have the files backed up online with Carbonite.  I want to buy a Mac I book.  Carbonite says it cannot download pc files to a Mac.  Is there a solution?

    Brilliant, that clears things up - there is a single
    audio in that is next to the PC in so I guess I need
    one of the single cables you have mentioned,
    hopefully the Apple Store can point me in the right
    direction when I go in to buy my Mini.
    If the TV has a single minijack-type audio input, then the cable you need is a very standard one that can be found almost anywhere that cables for audio/home theatre systems are sold. In the old days it would be easy to point you towards the nearest Tandy, but as I understand it they're now gone. However, even supermarkets such as Tesco are likely to have something this basic!
    No doubt Apple will release an Intel Core 2 Duo
    version the day after I pick it up.
    There's no doubt that at some point Apple will revise the range and make new mini's faster or more powerful - and it may be that it happens next week at the Macworld Expo. I'd bet there are a few people holding on for a few days to see if new minis are announced there, and you might want to do the same if it's of concern, but the existing models are plenty powerful, and more than enough for most user's needs.
    Thanks for all your help, much appreciated.
    You are most welcome - and please come back and post again if you have any further questions or any problems once you've got your system!
