File attachment download problem with Chrome

hi,
I've been searching for a cure to this problem for days without success. Hopefully someone here will help me fix this annoying problem.
The problem:
1. First: When using Chrome (lastest as of today) to open an attachment in emails, Chrome
always saves the file as download.xyz where xyz is the extension.
2. Second: Sometimes it saves the file extension correctly, sometimes it just changes to something else like htm, ashx,... where the correct extension should be .doc or .xls.
I find this only happen with MS Office attachment files. Other browsers like Firefox, IE work just fine.
What is the problem and possible solution/work around for this?
We are using MS Exchange 2010 btw.
Thank you

Hi Trung,
Try disabling plug-ins in Chrome and see if it works, if works you can pin-point out the exact plug-in causing the issue.
Type this in the chrome browser's address bar: 
about:plugins
Reference:
Chrome: Attachments save as attachment.ashx and a number

  • QTVR problem with Chrome

    Hello,
    I have noticed a problem with QTVR files (interactive panoramas):
    - the navigation with mouse doesn't work
    - the navigation with arrows keys works
    - the navigation with 2 fingers gestures on trackpad works
    Curiously, no problem with Chrome for Windows (so far...)
    I have also noticed:
    - on Windows the QT extension version is 7.7.2
    - on OSX QT extension version is 7.7.1 (and it seems that I can't upgrade)
    So, is it possible to fix the problem of the mouse?
    Thanks.

    Hi b noir,
    Thanks a lot for your response, but unfortunately your suggestion doesn't solve the issue.
    First, it seems that it's not possible to switch Chrome in 32 bits mode.
    I tried with Firefox, which presented the same problem, but nothing changed...
    Just to sum up things:
    MacOSX
    - Safari and Opera : no problem
    - Chrome and Firefox : mouse problem
    Windows
    - Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera and... IE : no problem!
    And just to let you know (nothing to do with the problem): I have a HTML5/CSS3/WebGL versions of the panoramas which work great on any browser on MacOSX/IOS and which don't work on Windows except for Safari...

  • Error -43  when try playback on win7 64bits over the network QT that recide MacPro  osx 10.5 however i can play with VLC player, This happend when the QT is inside a Folder with name longer 8 chars other files has no problem with long names just the QT

    error -43  when try playback on win7 64bits over the network QT that recide MacPro  osx 10.5 however i can play with VLC player, This happend when the QT is inside a Folder with name longer 8 chars other files has no problem with long names just the QT  nfs sharing

    Never mind, I already found the solution myself.
    What I did wrong was:
    - not copying the master image to the nbi folder
    - selecting the netinstall-restore.dmg image as source to copy to my HD.
    The thing is, when you create a netinstall image for 10.5, the image itself is already included in the netinstall image so you don't have to do anything else.
    With the 10.4 image however, you also have to copy the master image to the NetBootSP0 directory.
    In the *.nbi folder contains an netinstall-restore.dmg file. But that is only to boot you to netrestore, it's not the image itself.
    Other alternative is to copy the images to another folder that you share with AFP and adjust the configuration of netrestore like described in this manual:
    http://www.shellharbourd.det.nsw.edu.au/pdf/misc/osxrestoringnet.pdf
    This manual was also how I figured out that I forgot to copy the image to the NetBootSP0 folder.

  • E66 .wav file attachment download

    On the E51 and E65 when an email attachment that is a .wav file was downloaded, the phone would allow playback immediately without saving or any other action. On the E66 as with the N95 the file comes up with the attachment but will not allow it to be immediately played. The only way that I have been able to figure out playing the attachemtn is to save it to the phone internally in "sound clips". I must then go to sound clips and play the file from there after downloading and saving. There must be a better wa to do this. Any help would be appreciated.

  • TV Show download problem with library on a network share

    My local drive has 100GB disk space available. I have my iTunes library configured to be on a network share which happens to be on a NAS (network attached storage) drive. My NAS drive has over 600GB disk space available. When I try to download a TV Show (Battlestar Galactica) I get an error which says that:
    "The disk you are attempting to use is full"
    This is nowhere near true. I tried several times, then switched my iTunes library to point to my local drive, and the download worked. Does iTunes have a problem with a library on a network share?
    Help!
    Thanks,
    Brad

    Not easy because in order to open just one library file you would have to be running the same version of iTunes on all computers which would be limited to the lowest version supported by your computers (the G3).  Try to open a iTunes 10 library with 9.2.1 and it will refuse. This in turn might not support your equipment.  Even if you can do this you would have to make sure only one copy of iTunes was running because the library file cannot be opened by multiple copies of iTunes at the same time.

  • Viewing Excel Files using Tomcat - Problem with caching

    Hi all,
    A small part of an application I'm writing has links to Excel files for users to view/download. I'm currently using Tomcat v5 as the web/app server and have some very simple code (an example is shown below) which calls the excel file.
    <%@ page contentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
    <%
    response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
    response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
    response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
    response.sendRedirect("file1.xls");
    %>
    This all works except but I'm having one big problem.
    The xls file (file1.xls) is updated via a share on the server so each month, the xls file is overwritten with the same name but with different contents. I'm finding that when an update is made to the xls file and the user then attempts to view the new file in the browser they recieve only the old xls file. It's caching the xls file and I don't want it to. How can I fix this so that it automatically gives the user the new updated file.
    The only way I've managed to get Tomcat to do this is to delete the work directory and delete the file from my IE temp folder and then restart Tomcat - this is a bit much!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I'd a problem with caching a few years back, for a servlet request which returned an SVG file.
    As a workaround, I ended up putting appending "#" and a timestamp / random number after it. The browser assuming each request was new, and didn't use the cache.
    Eg.
    http://myserver/returnSVG.do#1234567
    where 1234567 is a timestamp / random.
    Not sure whether you can do this on a file based URL... but maybe worth a shot...

  • Problem with Chroma/Lume Keys while using Drop Shadows

    I have been using the box now for almost two years and I still am getting problems with green/blue/purples artifacts showing up after a chroma/luma key has been applied with a drop shadow. The artifacts do not show up under a preview but only when the sequence has been rendered. As soon as I take the drop shadow off, the artifacts go away. This is happening with both still graphics with or without Alphas and green/blue screen video. Please help, am I just missing something or is there a work around that I could be using.
    Thanks,
    Alex

    c'mon, Bogie - tell us what you really feel - don't hold back... < </div>
    Oh, Patrick, buddy, I am so totally torqued out of shape today. Don't get me started. Too late. FCP's insane render handler is dropping my files, seemingly at random. The nests, Motion and LiveType material are not rendering in the correct order which makes the effects all wonky.
    I add drop shadows in the last stage and FCP just ain't holding it together. I get glitches. And then I keep getting these Media Offline notices because FCP cant' track the render files that are actually in use in the upstream nests.
    I'll certainly admit a likely a user error. I just don't know what it could be. I've somehow told FCP to destroy its children.

    Hi all,
    I have problem with Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control Release 1 (11.1.0.1.0) for Linux x86-64 (64-bit) downloaded archives.
    Actually with GridControl_11.1.0.1.0_Linux_x86-64_2of3.zip (1,589,671,704 bytes) (cksum - 535544209)
    I successfully downloaded all archives but cksum for this file (...2of3...) is invalid.
    Even it is invalid I tried to install. Installation starts ok, but it breaks after few moments.
    Regards

    Here is cksum from file that I downloaded 3966614633 and on download page is 535544209.
    It's obvious that something is wrong!
    Oracle personal should fix this issue.
    Anyhow, there is another way... Download from different location. See this thread:

    Check the user in the dashboard for any errors that might better guide you.
    on the GMS server, run mcheck on the user
    cd /opt/novell/datasync/tools/mcheck
    python mcheck.pyc
    2 for users, 1 for check user, it will usually sort things out from there.
    Other useful tool is dsapp.

    Other general things to check:
    - on the GMS box, make sure you aren't running out of resouces, "df -h" to
    check drive space, "free -m" to check memory.

  • File Upload/Download Problem

    Hi,
    I have a fileupload button. The attributes type is XSTRING, which i bound it with "data" property of download.
    When i download this file with "download" element, it comes in a zip file and as XML files. Only the jpg files are downloaded correctly.
    How can i solve this?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I am so sory for my very late answer.
    If you want to upload/download files, you should have a node which includes attributes
    (attribute names are just example ):
    1) filename(type: for example afilename),
    2)mimetype (type : string),
    3) file(type : a data element with type 'RAWSTRING').
    You must match your fileupload element's attributes with them:
    "DATA" attribute --> file ,
    "fileNAME" attribute--> filename,
    "mimeTYPE" attritube -->mimetype.
    When you want to download this file, you should put a filedownload element and match this element's attributes with the node's attributes which i described above.

  • Calling javascript from swf (which is source file of frame) - problems with OPERA

    hey,
    right now i have the swf-file as the source file for a frame,
    because i want the swf-width depend on the browser-size.
    it looks kinda like this:
    <frameset cols="10,*,10">
    <frame src="border.htm" name="leftFrame">
    <frame src="file.swf" name="mainFrame">
    <frame src="border.htm" name="rightFrame">
    </frameset>
    from the swf i call a javascript-code that is located in the
    'border.htm'
    file.
    the javascript simply opens a popup window.
    function open_popup() {
    MM_openBrWindow('popup.htm','pop','toolbar=no,location=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars =no,resizable=no,width=400,height=500');}everything
    works fine ine firefox, ie, netscape (at least in another tab),but
    when it comes to the opera browser (and apparently also safari)i
    don't get any reaction at all ...i told opera to allow
    popup-windows, so that shouldnt be the reason.now i am thinking

  • Download Problem with iPhoto 6.0.4.

    New Mac user here. I have a clean install of OS X, uodated to to 10.4.8. I bought a copy of iLife 06 from Amazon.com and installed it and successfully updated the various programs....except for iPhoto.
    The version installed is 6.0.1. When I look for updates I get the message that 6.0.4 is available and I download it (i've done this 3 or 4 times) and each time it shows a successful download and then I get an error message:
    "The update "iPhoto Update" can't be installed.
    The digital signature for this package is incorrect. The package may have been tampered with or corrupted since being signed by "Apple"."
    This is odd. After I installed iLife from the disk I bought (in a sealed box) from Amazon I have successfully downloaded and installed updates to the other component programs; it is just iPhoto that is giving the problem.
    Which figures because that is the one program in the suite I want to use.
    I would appreciate any help or direction in solving this problem.
    (btw: I noticed some comments on this forum about problems with v 6.0.5. I have only been 'offered' a download of 6.0.4. Has 6.0.5 been withdrawn?)

    Try downloading the standalone updater for iPhoto 6.04. iPhoto 6.05 has not been pulled, but you cannot install it until you've successfully installed the iPhoto 6.04 updater, and Software Update isn't supposed to show you any updates which can't be installed on your configuration.
