  • TS1506 I can't open pdf attachements in my email from outlook on my iphone

    How do I open pdf attachments in my email on my iphone

    here is what is supposed to happen...
    an e mail attachment is usually shown as a icon at the end of the e mail.  If you touch it, and if it is a file type that the pad can handle in preview, it opens and you can read it.  and example would be a word document.
    If you want to do something besides read the attachment, you need an app.  If you touch and hold the attachment you will ge a prompt called "open in", and any apps you have that can deal with that file type will ber lsited, you pick the one you want to use.
    Sometimes there is no app on your machine to open a particular file type.  You can go to the app store, and search for that file extension, and frequently find an app that will deal with it.  Windows .wmv files are an example.
    Lastly, there are some file types that the pad simply will not open, and there are no apps to be had either.  Flash attaments, i believe the extension is swx, cannot work on the pad.
    so - when you get an e mail with an attachment - what happens when you touch it?

  • Can't open pdf attachment in Yahoo Mail. Worked in 25.0 not 25.0.1. Still works with IE.

    Clicking on a pdf attachment in AT&T/Yahoo Mail results in "a file was downloaded". Used to open the file in Firefox 25.0 and prior. Switching to IE I can click on the attachment and it opens. Seems it could be something in 25.0.1. I cleared my history (cache, cookies) but this did not fix the problem. I disabled the pdf viewed and that didn't help either.

    i'm not sure as to what exactly is going on, but it looks like yahoo has changed something on their server that makes certain old url formats dysfunctional - at least quite a number of other users have reported that... so if you have a bookmark for yahoo mail, change its address to the generic https://mail.yahoo.com/, which should redirect you to the current & working url

  • How can I open PDF files?  The usual procedures don't work for me.  Thanks.

    How can I open PDF files?  Until a couple of months ago, I had no problem.  Now I can open none of them.  I have Adobe Reader X.  Yesterday I uninstalled Adobe X, restarted the computer, and then reinstalled Adobe X.  No success.  Thanks.

    What happens if you open Reader first then use File>Open like Bernd suggested?
    Are you sure you are opening them in Reader and not a text editor or MS Word? I ask because Reader will not prompt you for a language.

    How do I open an attachment from my email with macbook pro on aol? It keeps flipping back?

    Wirth an iOS device you have to first go to the app that has the item you want to attach. When in that app you then select the email option for sharing.  You can't start from the Mail app.

  • TS3899 How can I place an attachment onto outgoing emails on the iPad ?

    How can I place an attachment onto outgoing emails on the iPad ?

    If it's a photo or video, you type out your mail then hold your finger down in the body of the mail to get the pop up to attach a photo.
    If it's another kind of file you have to open it in the app it 'lives' in....for example your word processing app for a document, then look for the little box with the arrow, tap that and you should have the option to send that file to be mailed.

  • I can't open jpegs attached to my email.  What can I do?

    I can't open jpegs attached to my email.  Error messages say "The file “CH02_12_07_08_07_06_01.jpg” could not be opened." and "It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."  What can I do?

    I'm using Mac Mail as my email client.  I've tried to open it directly from the attachment in the email, and also saving it to my download folder to open seperately.  It will open on a PC with no issue.
    Background: The jpg comes from a remote cameral systems I've set up.  Any movement that is detected sends me an email notification and a jpg image of the motion from the camera
    I've attached a copy of the jpg file in question.

  • Can't open PDF attachment in e-mail sent from Outlook, says I need to save first, how?

    Cannot open PDF attachment in webmail sent from Outlook, says I need to save first; how do I save the link?

    Looks like another user asked similar question with over 600 views and no replies ... hmmm.  When I click on the attachment, it says I must save it to my disk; with one button mouse just click once and save?  I've tried dragging and saving the attachment to word doc but opened up with a page of garbled words/symbols,etc.  Any ideas are welcome.

  • How can i open a attachment with the fileextension .note sent from an Ipad

    A friend of mine sent me an email from his Ipad with an attachment which has the extension .note. How can I open this file on my Mac?

    It appears that this extension is related to the ipad app 'notability'. It would have to be exported as a pdf or rtf file to be opened.
    You can do some googling, but might be better if the sender converts the file to something more common and sends again.

  • How can I open an attachment from inside a PDF portfolio using flex 4.1?

    I am currently developing a portfolio and have a DataGrid which lists my sorted attachments.
    I can right click on an attachment to open it but I require it to happen on the double click event.
    My code currently looks like this (taken from an old example):
    private function itemDoubleClicked(event:ListEvent):void
                                            var itemIndex:int = event.rowIndex;
                                            var item:AttachmentImpl = AttachmentImpl(sortedCurrentItems.getItemAt(itemIndex));
                                            var command:CommandImpl = collectionManager.host.commands(acrobat.collection.CommandType.PREVIEW);
                                            Alert.show("you double clicked " + item.fileName);
                                            collectionManager.host.selection = [item];
                                            command.execute(item); 
    but i get a null pointer exception because command is null.
    Could anyone give me pointers or another solution?
    Thanks,
    Chris.
    Edit:
    I would like to extend this question as follows:
    when using 'host.commands' (as i believe is correct) I get the error that host is 'write-only' and therefore can access none of its methods.
    The example I use is from here: http://pdfdevjunkie.host.adobe.com/05_sorting.shtml
    Using this method, the host is overwritten by doing the following:
    public function set host(host:INavigatorHost):void
                                                 if(host != null) {
                                                           _host = host;
                                                           startEverything();
                                                 } else {
                                                           _host = null;
                                                           //Alert.show("Navigator Ending");
    When I try to do this I recieve the error that the method is not set for override.

    If i try to simply use the host e.g.
    host.selection = [item];
    It tells me that host is write-only. How can this be true?
