Cannot receive .doc & .xls files

I have searched the board, and read that a number of owners receive doc & xls files with no problems. I do receive the e-mail sent to my iPhone, but when it tries to display the file, it always states ( This message has no content ). I use embarqmail, and nothing is blocked. I do receive the attached files in my regular e-mail. They are short, xls = 56K, doc = 19K. Have tried many times, with different files. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Guy

what i have found is just that the edge data network is slow to actually download the attachment with the email... the email text comes in quickly but the attachment may take several minutes to actually download and show up...i have found that when i get and attachment i go into my inbox and just let it sit there for several minutes until the paperclip icon shows, then go into the email and the attachment should beavailable, if you go into the email before edge has downloaded it you might not ever get it on the phone... best to just wait until its there for sure...i have had to wait up to 30 minutes for the attachment to show after i received the email...hope this helps

Checking PDF/DOC/XLS files for passwords

Folks
Wondering if anyone can shed any light on how to check PDF/DOC/XLS files passwords?
I'm not trying to crack the password, I'm writing a program where people are uploading files, but I don't want people submitting files that require passwords to open them.

//Here, I can get the myData. The value is the content of the doc file.
if (myData) {
[self.myWebView loadData:myData MIMEType:mimeType textEncodingName:@"UTF-8" baseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:fileDesPath]];
After loadData, it cannot show anything in webview!
Can someone help me in this matter?

Help! How to read N9500 .doc/.xls files in E90??

Is there any file converter or specific application to read N9500 office file (.doc, .xls) in e90?? geez.. very annoying indeed..
thanx

With N9500 you can save to different format? So save in 9500 to different format and the should at least be opened in PC and again maybe in E90 also.
So, 9500:
Menu, Save, Save as... And Change format. Default is epoc / symbian i think (though odd if E90 does not support symbian format)

Hi
I would like to see if it was possible. I thought it would be easy, as
there is a standard batch processing sequence (Print 1st page of all) using
Java that comes with Acrobat 7. This allows you to print the first page of
a number of files that you select when the sequence is run. Its code is:
/* Print 1st Page */
/* This sequence prints the first page of
   each document selected to the default printer.
this.print
To my uninformed mind it seemed logical that the same code, slightly
modified to print all pages, should work from within a form.
Anyway, if there is a way to choose individual files, I would appreciate
that.
Thanks

Cannot Open .xls files in Excel 2010

Before we start, I would just like to say, I've read probably 9 or 10 other threads with no help.
I cannot open any .xls file. Unfortunately the user has already associated the file type with Adobe Reader, so I cannot just double click the files to open them. I have tried the follow fixes with no solution:
-Open With .. > EXCEL.exe (I double click the application and nothing happens)
-Going in to the file extensions page and associating it with the EXCEL.exe application there, but same thing, nothing happens
-I have tried going into the registry and renaming the "OFFICE12"'s to "OFFICE14". Nothing happened
-I have tried going into the Excel folder options and checking off and unchecking "Ignore Other Applications That Use DDE"
-I have searched for the "Microsoft Application Virtualization DDE Launcher" application with no luck
of finding it
-I have tried re-installing and repairing Office 2010
I'm out of idea and have no idea what to try next. Any ideas?

Hi,
The registry key which could affect you open the .xls by double click is the following:
Important
This method is related to modify the registry. However, serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you do it carefully. For added protection, back up the registry before you modify it. Then, you can restore
the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
322756 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756) How to back up and restore the registry in Windows
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Excel.Sheet.8
I would suggest you rename the registry key, and then repair the Office programs to create a new key.
For example:
Rename “Excel.sheet.8” to “Excel.sheet.8.old”.
Then repair the Office programs:
Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features > click the Office 2010 program that you want to repair, then click Change > Repair > Continue.
You might need to restart your computer after the repair is complete.
Sincerely

GOS - Cannot open .docx/.xlsx file programmatically attached to business object

I am supporting an existing web dynpro application that allows users to attach files to a purchase requsition in SAP. The current solution allows for a successful attachment and display of .doc and .xls files, but gives an error when displaying .docx and .xlsx files.
The current solution follows this logic: The code identifies the MIME type of the file to derive the file extension. Then, it converts the document contents from a xstring type to binary via function SCMS_EXTRING_TO_BINARY. After the conversion, it creates an initial instance of BO 'MESSAGE' and populates the message container with the required parameters. It creates the container, refreshes the message object, and gets the key of the new message object. Then, the code populates the BO object_a and object_b and calls the method   cl_binary_relation=>create_link to attach the file. Lastly, a commit work statement is executed. Based on the code samples I have seen online, this solution is logically correct.
I am able to successfully attach .doc and .xls files from this web dynpro application, and then later open them from ME53N. I am also able to "successfully" attach .docx and .xlsx files from the application. If I view the attachment list in ME53N, these files are visible. However, when I attempt to open the attachments, Word/Excel gives me an error message "The file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents. The file is corrupt and cannot be opened." If I click OK to bypass the error, it gives an additional prompt "Word found unreadable content in document. Do you want to recover the contents of this document? If you trust the source of this document, click yes." If I click yes, the document opens.
.docx / .xlsx files attached via ME52N will open without issue
.doc / .xls files attached programmatically via this web application open without issue
these are the MIME types associated with .docx / .xlsx both in the web application and in SAP configuration:
.docx:   application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document
.xlsx:    application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet
Does anyone have an idea why the newer document versions appear to be corrupt when opening? Does the error from Word imply there is a data conversion issue, even though the .doc and .xls documents are readable? Are the .docx/.xlsx file types unusable with the   cl_binary_relation=>create_link method, and should instead be used with the function 'BINARY_RELATION_CREATE'?
Any help is greatly appreicated. Thanks in advance!

I replied too quickly. This change in providing the file size DID help when I was attaching .docx files. They open succesfully now, as well as, .doc and .xls files.
However, I'm still having the same issue when I try attaching .xlsx files. Furthermore, now .txt files do not display correctly. Before passing the file size correctly, they were displaying in notepad. Now, they open in the SAP GUI and only show characters, rather then the actual text.
It seems like this file size typo was just a coincidence for .docx files. I'm still looking for help on this issue. Thanks in advance.

Asha 302 - PDF/Doc/Xls reader issue

I have downloaded ezreader from store for reading pdf/doc/xls files. After installation of the application i cannot open the file tree. As i select open from the ezreader window it shows c: and e: drives, but selecting any of the drives will return the screen to ezreader home window. Can somebody help on this. Without a file opening option the the mail functionality of Asha302 is of no use.

I also have this problem, & its a pain. Im pretty well computer illiterate & have used nokia for online use due to their ease in the past but they've really dropped the ball with the Asha 302. I had an E63 last, & had no problem with it. I had a lot of downloaded files saved to the memory card, & when the E63 recently stopped working I got the asha as I was told it was an upgrade (yeah right). I transfered the sim & memory to the asha, & now, not only cant I open pdf files etc online, but I cant access the saved files, including files I recieved attached to emails that are saved to the memory card. I have downloaded the ezereader with the same results others have describe,,, it dont work. Thinking I may have been doing something wrong due to lack of knowledge, I went to the Optus shop where I bought the POS asha302 & asked for them to assist. Well after wasting over an hour & a half while they unsuccessfully tried I was told the best thing to do would be to buy a card reader so I could at least access the files that are on the memory card via computer. Still means I've been ripped off on the phone, doesnt it

The 'Winmail.dat' problem has been extensively covered in these forums, I would search for that (a Google search works well) and unfortunately I have not seen the pdf print problem before, but assuming the software is current and functions normally (other than the pdf print problem) I have no suggestion other than the obvious (but time consuming) re-installation of Office.

Cannot receive files automatically

I am running skype 7.0.0.102, ie 11 , on win7 desktop. The option "automatically accept incoming files" is checked. However I cannot receive files automatically from any contact. I work with time difference and this would be vital for me. Same problem on my win 8.1 laptop. Tried reset settings in ie, delete temp files...etc...What am I missing?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

That's a weird selection of extensions.
By all means, no file is "safe": we're on Windows, and Windows by default hides the known extensions; and on the other hand, even non-misleadingly named files from that bunch can contain dangerous things (MSOffice file formats and JPG certainly can).
There's absolutely no reason to assume that a txt file is more dangerous than a doc file.
On MSN Messenger for example there used to be some kind of integration with the system antivirus service, that could be done in skype too (and I'm sure it's possible in a much better way, I'm sure). And then just allow autoaccepting anything. Like in Skype for Linux.
Though to be quite honest, it is not the IM software's task to keep the user's machine safe. And a resident virus scanner will notice the new file whether or not it's explicitly called by the IM, so let's just scrap what I said in the previous paragraph and let's get an unhindered autoaccept.
