.doc email attachments not opening since ios 8 on iPad 3rd gen

Since the ios 8 update, word .doc email attachments will not load on iPad. They download from Exchange server and when I click them, a new screen opens with just the file name (xxxx.doc), a description "Microsoft Word 97-2004 document" and the file size. Anyone else experiencing this or found a fix? Thanks

i had the same problem reading a .pdf attachment. I killed the Mail app, reopened the app and tried again and it opened the attachment. .doc attachments now open as well.

  • Why will some email attachments not open with firefox but will with another browser

    PDF attachments and some pictures won't open.

    The latest Reader is 11.0.01, not 11.0.1.  It is named Adobe Reader XI.
    I did uninstall the Reader X and installed this latest one.
    But it did not solve the problem, still could not open the problem pdf's .
    I did find the problem was caused by the MS Office Click to Run error referred to in my original message.  As far as I know we have no use for that on my wife's computer. Not sure how it got there.   I uninstalled it and so far the problem pdf's open fine now.  Problem solved.
    Thanks for your help.

  • Why don't pdf email attachments not open in pdf reader?

    I have a series 1 iPad running the latest ios available for that model. I have an email with some PDF attachments that I want to open and store in PDF reader however the only options presented are to read the attachments using iBooks or Kindle. Why is this?

    Thank you. I tried installing adobe reader and it worked but it made me wonder why. I have the PDF reader created by Kdan and so I went on their website and found the following.
    Unfortunately Apple's device has a limitation on the app number displayed on the open-in list and we are not allowed to change its order.
    We suggest you delete some of the existing apps equipped the open-in feature to get PDF Reader available on the open-in list.
    When I installed adobe as suggested, that appeared in 2nd place. I de-installed convert to text and I-can-print, which I hardley ever use, and sure enough Kdan PDF reader now appears in the list.
    Thanks for the lead

    Hello sassy
    All I can suggest is to continue to try (from time to time).  I updated mine, but I did it late last night when the traffic was much lighter.

  • Mail not opening after iOS 6.0.1 update

    Since updating to ios 6.0.1, my email will not open. It closes itself out as soon as I click on it. Same for email, calendar, and contact settings. Click on it and it doesn't open. I've restored and reset. Nothing is working. A lot of other things are glitching, but this is the worst.

    I see you said you restored, from backup or new? if from backup, then restore as new!

    Hi aadeshs
    This problem is on my laptop  running Vista ( Business) on Adobe 10.0  ,   for many years I did NOT have a problem with this . No forum Pages on this. 
    Also i would like to know how screen readers can better interact with PDF as my wife has difficultys on some email attachments on her laptop , again there seems no easy avenue for someone in her situation surfing websites and forums  for Hours maybe ok ok for sighted people, but not if you are blind & use a screenreader.  No Support Help from Adobe is available.
    thanks

  • Firefox is blocking .wmv email attachments from opening

    Firefox is blocking .wmv email attachments from opening on all three yahoo.com (classic, plus, and beta) email formats. When I click to open and view the email attachments, I no longer get the option to "Open or Save" this file, and it is automatically saved in my Win7 Download files.
    This happened once before and the fix was to "X-cancel" an orange bar message saying that FF was blocking this file from opening. This message was located just under the top of the FF browser.
    I do not see this message now.

    Cor-el contributed the"Yahoo File" link to solve this problem. After reading and studying the info listed I went to FF "Applications" and changed the windowmedia audio/video from "default" to "always ask." And that was the fix. Now when I open an email attachment with a .wmv file, I click on "download" and then get the Option box of "Open or Save." Just what I wanted.
    Thanks Cor-el

  • HT204053 my apple id is not open when put email and password its need to verify but if email is not open how can i verify?

    when i put my icloud id and password at icloud.com a message come checkyour email for instructions on how to veryfiy account.but on my ipad email is not open whAT I DO? plz help me

    Check the primary email account associated with the Apple ID you are using to create your iCloud account on your computer.  You should see an email from Apple.  You need to click the Verify Now link on the email to verify your account.  (Be sure to check both your inbox and your spam/junk folder).
    If you don't have a computer, add the email account to your iPad by going to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account.  Then use the Mail app to check for the email.
    If you don't see the email from Apple, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage your Apple ID, sign in, click on Name, ID and Email addresses on the left, then to the right click Resend under your Primary Email Address to resend the verification email.
