Hi Eidda,
This may because the attachment is a winmail.dat file. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information. Note: the article is written for OS X mail, but does also apply to this situation.

I can't open pps files with FF4. I have Powerpoint Viewer installedAny suggestions?

I can open Powerpoint (pps) files with Google Chrome but not Firefox 4. How do I get FF4 to associate pps files with the Powerpoint Viewer that is installed on my computer?

Many thanks!!! This works and is probably the best fix for now. Thank you!!!

For the D600 NEF's you have two alternatives: (1) Upgrade to PSE 11. (2) Download and install the free Adobe DNG converter to convert your raw files to the Adobe universal Raw format and the files will open in all versions of PSE (keep your originals as backups and for use in the camera manufactures software) Windows download click here DNG Converter 7.3 Mac download click here DNG Converter 7.3 You can convert a whole folder of raw images in one click.

Can't open word files sent from my 9500 to E90

Can some one please help me,
word documents sent to my E90 from my 9500 won't open,
message says :Unable to open file not supported,
It all started with data mover, Contact & Calendar entries are fine but document folders are recognised but won't open,
Nokia suggested using drag & drop, using Pc suit
with the 9500 connected drag all wanted files from the phone into my Pc then connect the E90 and reverse the process, files appear but I can't open them,
Then I was told to e-mail from my Pc as an attachment,
did'nt work either, doesn't matter how you get the files into the E90 you don't seem to be able to open them.
So, is it possable to get word files into an E90 from a 9500
Thank you.

Open Word file in 9500, choose "Save as" from the Menu and you will have an option on one of the buttons at the right of the screen regarding the Format. Press that button and choose MS Word format. If you save all your Word files like this you should be able to open them on E90.
This is from memory alone. If I was not clear enough, please let me know and I will give you more detailed instructions. Good luck.
Me again, opened and a file in my 9500 and saved it in MS Word 97 then using Pc Suit copied it from one phone into the other, but once again I get the same message (Unable to open.. File type not supported)
I don't know if all E90's come with the same programs pre-loaded, in mine I have a program entitled Quick Office in which it says you can open and manipulate Word files along with Excel and also Lotus Notes but first you have to purchase and download software from Nokia to activate it,
I have found that if I go into Quick Office and write a document in word then save it, I get the same message as above when I try to open it,
As I said in my previous message, I suspect I will have to purchase the Quick Office software from Nokia,
I look forward to hearing your thoughts,
Kind Regards.

Can't open .pps file protected with KN'09

Hello All,
Can't open Powerpoint .pps protected file with KN'09 on macbook snow-Leopard.
any help is appreciated
Thanks a lot

Hello All,
No body can help me ???
I try to give you more details:
Keynote read easily all *.pps or *.ppt, but when those files are password protected, neither
MS Office 2008 for mac nor Keynote '09 nor changed .pps to .ppt still can't read thoses files. Website : http://www.canhnongminhduc.com/Pages2010/hinhanhPPSOwners2M10.php?owner=TS
When I try to read those files, an error message displayed : Importation "Error : the file ... is encrypted. Try to save it without encrypted!"
the error message is ambiguous:
1/ if file is protected, means the owner didn't want everybody to changed the content.
2/ We don't know the owner how can we as to give the file without encrypted???
That is a shame that Keynote did not think to give us the possibility to READ ONLY the file.
Hopelessly find a workarround for this situation.
regards,
Bichnm

Can't open excel files sent from windows xp pc

Can't open indesign files sent via email

hello, a customer sent me indesign-files (CS6, CS4 and IDML). i think they are using the mac version. i have indesign CS6 on pc and everytime i try to open one of the files, indesign reports an failure: missing file oder missing authorisation. does anyone know any solution?

As previously mentioned, the files must be extracted from any archive and saved to a hard drive location before you open it. I have seen this error message once or twice in the past with a file that should have opened (stored on a network drive, which may have played a role), I think. They didn't happen to also include the .idlk file with what they sent? If so, delete it.
Have you tried clicking the "As a Copy" radio button inthe open dialog to make a new, untitled copy? If that works you can save with a new name and move on.

Can't open mov files on my ipad

Since one of the last IOS updates, I can't open Mov files sent from my own IPhone via email.
I have had a new ipad swapped under warranty, and have reloaded all software from scratch.
When I get the email with the video file. The file is an attachment, I click the file, it downloads, then when I click it to view the video I get a white screen with the file name in the middle and the words quick time movie. And nothing happens

You should download VLC and try viewing the .mov file with it - for troubleshooting.
