Cannot open jpg from an iPhone user

When an iPhone user sends me a email with a jpeg attachment I cannot always open it. This problem specifically happens when the user sends from an iphone that is using russian fonts. Although the iPhone can type English as well. When I receive the photo. The jpeg has the file name ???????????.jpeg. I believe because it was in cyrillic and the pre could not translate it. When I download it, the photo does not open just a grey x box. I know the photo is not corrupt because I can open it my gmail and my blackberry opens it. For some reason I think it is the filename, when another iPhone users sends me a photo, the name is normally photo.jpeg and I never have a problem opening it. If I open this same email in my gmail on my computer and resend to myself I can open it because the file name is some cyrillic characters followed by.jpeg
Anyone else have this problem? Is this a bug with Pre and handling of cyrillic and naming it wrong.

I appreciate all the help received and I have tried the suggestions and experimented further on my own as well.  Here is some additional information about the problem.
I could remove the SD from my phone and open the pictures just fine with my MacBook/Preview.  Furthermore, I noticed that the problem only happens when I mail my pics to my comcast.net email account.  If I mail the pics to my yahoo.com email, my MacBook has no problem opening up the pics with Preview.  Same success if I mail the pics to my GF email at io.com.  So, by process of elimination, the problem may be with the way comcast.net handles my pics as email attachments.
I remain puzzled why.....

  • Cannot open JPGs from FF

    When I try to open a jpg embedded in a local web page, FF does nothing.
    Example:
    <pre><nowiki><div class="wmPicture"><img src="p05_217a.JPG" alt="" /></div>
    </nowiki></pre>
    The image is there.
    I checked, and there is no "Preview Document (image/jp2)" listed in Prefs>Applications.
    How can I fix this?
    I have no trouble opening PDFs in a local web page.
    Example:
    <pre><nowiki><div class="wmPDF"><a href='#' OnClick='window.open("p05_218a.pdf","wmedia")'>
    </nowiki></pre>
    Thanks.

  • HT1414 Since updating to ios7 I cannot receive texts from other iphone users

    Help

    Really?
    iMessage data usage is miniscule over 3G...about 1kb per message, & NO 3G data if connected to WiFi.
    Seems to me you're making a mountain out of a mole hill.

  • TS2755 Cannot receive text messages from other iPhone users.

    My iPhone cannot receive messages from other iPhone users after updating to ios7. I do not have internet access on my iPhone. Sender tell me the message has failed.

    If they are trying to send you iMessages, & you don't have any Internet access, the message will fail, as iMessage requires a data connection.

    Make sure Send as SMS is on . If it is on and the error still occurs go to Send and Recieve, and make sure your phone number is the ONLY thing listed.

    Check Settings>General>Cellular to be sure you have Cellular Data set to On.

    Reset the devices: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

  • Cannot open jpg files in Preview? Error message "may be damaged or use a file format that preview does not recognize".

    For some reason I cannot open jpg files from a co-worker who previosuly sent files without any problems.  I just bought a MacBook Air with OS X Lion & Preview won't open the files.  She sent the same files to another co-worker who opened without any issues?  Help!  Anyone have any suggestions after having the same or similar problem?

    I don't have an answer as to why Preview doesn't want to cooperate, but if you only need to view the jpeg's and do nothing else to them, you can use two FREE applications that come already pre-installed on your Mac... Those are iPhoto and Safari. Just drag and drop over the application icon.
    You can also find several FREE photo viewers in the APP STORE.

  • Cannot open jpg

    Hi to all
    i am new to mac and the only complaint i have is that for some reason i cannot open jpg files that i sent via BT. or any form
    when i click on it the icon moves(like is going to open) but nothing comes on
    i have Google it and it seems a problem with preview.
    how can i go around this
    is there another app for viewing pictures
    i tried the iphoto but i have to manually send it there
    i just want to double click on a picture and preview it easily

    Preview should be able to view any true JPEG. If the JPEG is encoded in some proprietary format that may give you trouble. Verify your file is a .jpg file.
    If it isn't they sent it to you as an improperly coded JPEG.
    You can always try the Open With command from the contextual menu. Control-trackpad click gives you Open With as a contextual menu in the Finder. This lets you pick another application to open with.

  • Cannot open .jpg files; says read-only and no access

    I cannot open .jpg files I've been working on, even though I saved them as .jpg.  The prompt kept asking me to save the files over & over.  I did for a while then said NO to close the files.  Now it says access is denied.  Went to properties and tried to uncheck box for read-only, but it says I don't have access to do that.  How can I get my files back...these were very special photos.  Please help!

    No...just PSE7.  Unfortunately, when I tried to cut & paste the photos from
    my camera disk to my hard drive, the problem photo completely disappeared.
    When I go into recent history, the shortcuts are there, but none of them
    work.  They say the file has been moved or changed so...I don't even know
    where they are for now.  Do I need to call a repairman?
