Convergence View Attachment

In Convergence I notice the choice to view or save attachments . Some attachments the browser can view. Some, like .xls & .pdf the browser tries to display but fails (the user sees gibberish). However it knows to try to save or open (with an unzip program) a .zip file. Is this browser specific or a Convergence behavior?
Thanks,

For example, viewing a .zip attachment in Convergence (Mac/PC Firefox), the browser streams the file (and it's configured to "always ask") - and I see gibberish.How are you "viewing" the .zip attachment in Convergence. Convergence should be providing an attachment link which you click on. It is up to the browser at this point to dictate how that attachment is handled -- whether that be "display inline" or prompt to save or save and execute helper application to process the file.
However, in the past I have been presented the option to save or download .zip files.As per my previous comments, the browser can use both the "Content-Type" and attachment file-name to determine how the attachment is handled. The "Content-Type" is dictated by the client which created the email. If Convergence is the client, then the "Content-Type" is dictated by the browser which uploaded the attachment.This mail was imsimported from a Lotus Notes migration project. Does what you say above (and perhaps the URL below) suggest that the Content-Type is wrongly specified?

Note: Type=text, Subtype=plain. This reflects what was set for the "Content-Type" for the attachment. What client generated the email?
MSIE handles the View .zip file a little better - it opens a new window, and then presents a download open / save file dialog.MSIE handles this particular .zip file better in this particular case. That isn't to say it handles it better for all cases.

View attached documents?

I need help viewing attached documents. I can see my MS WORD docx as an attachment on my school's email, but my iPad 2 will not open it... any suggestions?

If I switch to the schools "lite" email version and try to open the attachment I get the message that Safari isn't connected to the Internet... those it is connected.
Thanks for ideas...

How to create GOS view attachment list in ECC6

Hi,
I created Z transaction. I have to create View attachment List to this transaction. How to create GOS view attachment list in ECC6. can anybody send sample code on this.
Thanks in advance.
Zakir.

Hi all,
I've following problem with class CL_GOS_ATTACHMENTS.
Transaction IE01/02/03 (create/change/display equipment) starts and instantiate GOS manager, and related BAdI are called.
Then, when I choose one of available service, CL_GOS_ATTACHMENTS is instantiated, and inside that class a new GOS manager is instantiated, inspite of already existing instance.
As a result, related BAdI are called twice, but unfortunately second time some SY variables are not correctly filled, particularly SY-TCODE and SY-MODNO are both empty.
I've develop a workaround so that when sy-tcode is filled I save it somwhere, and when it's empty I filled it from saved value, does anyone know any other solution??
Many thanks

Solved Question

GOS view attachment: Attachment of all users.

Hello colleagues,
Proud to say that I was able to implement attachment service from GOS by using the information I got entirely from this forum ! Kudos to all experts who have posted such excellent learning content.
I have only one remaining issue for which I could not find an answer here.
How can I view attachments of all users? Currently, I can view only my attachments for an object. Seems to me that GOS by default selects only attachments for a user (sy-uname).
I have used CL_GOS_MANAGER, CL_GOS_ATTACHMENTS, CL_GOS_SRV_ATTACHMENT_LIST and CL_GOS_PUBLICATION.
Basically, I have copied all these classes to my local class and made some adjustements to achieve my objective.
thanks in advance, Vikram

Hi Vikram,
i have worked on GOS menu and as of my Knowledge there is no such option to view all the attachments of all users
we have to see the attachments of that user

Cannot view attachments and other noob issues

Hello,
I'm completely new to blackberry, and am quite confused. Let me apologize in advance, as this is long and this device is much more involved than any I've had before.
When I receive an email with an attachment(in this case, I sent myself a .doc file to test it out from a yahoo account) I get the "Attachment type cannot be viewed on your device".
I just recieved my BB Tour today, and was able to set up the email rather easily as it is on a POP3.
I have activated the Documents to Go service, it appears that I have the viewer(I followed instructions to check it from another thread for the Curve I believe, and it appeared under Core Applications, so I'm not sure if that actually applies to the Tour, but I found what I think I'm supposed to have under setup/advanced options/applications and then viewed under 4.7 Core Applications under modules net_rim_bb_docview).
I have tried the restarting the device, but no luck. I installed the desktop manager, and followed the instructions to install/update everything.
So far, I've got about 4 hours into this by trying to read through previous posts and the support site, which is wearing on me.
Since I just got it today, is it possible there is some type of lag? I did get an activation message that had instructed me to Leave Messages on the Server, which I did, so I think I'm activated as I'm getting email and can send. But, again, being new to this, it's all a bit overwhelming and has me thinking I should have just activated the data package with my Motorola Q. I'll keep toying with it, to see if something clicks.
Could someone also direct me to a Blackberry 101 type guide? I haven't found the user manual very helpful as I can't even find in it if I can set how often it checks for messages, or if there is a way I can set it to check every 5 minutes or only on demand. So, if anyone can point me in the right direction, I would be grateful! Also, need to update my contact list from Microsoft Outlook, but no luck in finding out how to do that successfully either.
I know that this is a whole lot in one message, but thank you for indulging a newbie.

Hi and welcome to the forums!
Sorry there really isn't a 101 for the attachment service.
http://na.blackberry.com/eng/support/blackberry101/
This will help with the basics!
Don't think of one whole email and attachment being sent and received on the Blackberry as one item.
You are drawing in the document and attachments in "segments", if you think of that, it will make the articles
a little easier to read.
Two things first.
On the BB go to options, advanced options, applications. Scroll down to Blackberry Attachment service.
Highlight, don't click, menu key, edit default permissions, set all to allow. Save and go to the main message queue.
Menu key, options, general options, scroll to auto more set to yes.
Now the application is there, the defaults are set, the email address is set to automatically request the whole document.
Lets check the email setup.
Go to options advanced options, Host Routing Tables, click to enter. DO NOT click on any listing.
Press menu key, and select register now. You will get a registration verification message.
Then go to email settings and send service books. I recommend logging in via PC into the carriers BIS site.
(If you need the link to the correct site, send me the carrier name)
You will get an activation email per account. See if the problem is fixed.
If not, then we go into the Yahoo settings. In the mean time, here is some light reading material on the subject!
Just go over it and see how much applies to you and we can discuss it, OK?
Let us know how it goes!

Every time i have an attachment i must use Firefox.
It work fine on my iBook 12" G4.
Anyone could help me?
Thanks in advance and sotty for my english!!
Bye.

I've had the same problem. Gmail "upgraded" their system a couple of weeks ago and since then I am unable to view or download attachments from Gmail with Safari. I'm also unable to access any of the options for an email (such as forward, reply all, etc.) except for reply because the new drop-down list to access those features doesn't work. Thanks Gmail. My work-around is to use Firefox or Camino.

How to view attachment directly in Formscentral?

Is there a way to view attachments directly in FormsCentral without having to download it - sort of like a preview button? Also, why does it only prompt you to save the file, instead of just open it right away. It's slightly cumbersome to have to save all the attachments individually. At the very least, there should be an option to save all the attachments together and export them as one file.

Sorry, we don't support preview right now.
You can select a range of attachment cells and download all attachments (included into the selection) as a zip file.
Thanks
Roman

Viewing attached files in iCal events

I use iCal for work appointments.
When an appointment has an attached file to it, I can't see the file: when I click (or press space bar) on the name of the file I only get a blank page, and the name of the file attached to the appointment is different form the original, looks like a temp file with random name, like asdrf56nfro.
Can anybody please help me with this?

This sample is just for demonstration purposes - so it might not make a lot of sense to do, but we have a live web site that has a need to pop-up additional details for the PDF file being viewed and we run into this problem where the first PDF works, but when you move from one to the next, the PDF does not display in Adobe 9. If you are running Adobe 9 and you click on the refresh this page link you should get an error or a blank area where the PDF would normally display.
