I phone will not open ical attachments

TOTALLY NEW TO IMAC AND I PHONE BUT THINK ARE THE DOGS.
Problem - If i create an attachment on ical (eg a business quotation PDF) i can view it with the space bar on my ical on imac. I cannot figure out how to view the attachment on my iphone. If you can't then that is a terrible omission to make by Mr Mac.
Please please help!!

Only limited type of attachments supported at this point...it actually make me regret to purchase the Iphone...
iPhone supports the following email attachment file formats: .doc, .docx, .htm, .html, .pdf, .txt, .xls, .xlsx
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1666
But since your is PDF, then scroll to the bottom and click on the Image, it will start download and you able to see on PDF format.
I noticed it when I try open up ZIP file format, as all our corp attachments by default will be ZIP. Apperently IPHONE didn't support ZIP format

    My TextEdit will not open email attachments ending docx. How can I remedy this?

    No, TextEdit cannot read those. You will need to convert them to .doc files first:
    Mac users using Word 2004 who receive a Word 2008 for Mac, (or Word 2007 for Windows) document, will not be able to read this without having the Open XML Converter installed, which can be downloaded from Microsoft.
    Go to this page:
    http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.mspx
    and click on the right under Most Popular, 'Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0.2'
    This opens a window at the bottom of the page. Scroll that to the bottom and click on English.dmg, and it will download for you as a disk image, which can be installed in the usual way.
    After installation you can open and read .xml formatted Word 2008 documents in Word 2004.
    Update: This link  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976831  takes you to a newer version 1.1.3 (released Nov 10, 2009).

  • My phone will not open seems dead

    My phone will not open.  Seems dead

    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
    You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
    iPod Service Support and Costs
    iPhone Service Support and Costs
    iPad Service Support and Costs
    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
    1. iResq or Google for others.
    2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

  • HT4623 phone will not open

    my phone will not open. it stays on apple logo.

    If the reset is not successful, try the other actions of:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My phone will not open apps

    I used all my apps up to 12 midnight and now they will not open.  It flashes the app and goes back to home screan. Oh ya i updatedwith the new 4.3.3

    I've had this happen myself, where it seems like the phone has forgotten that you own the apps and refuses to open them. You need to try the 3 R's and see if they get your phone going again.
    First, do a restart. Hold the top button until you see the slide to turn off, and do turn it off. Once you have restarted the phone, it may start working again (didn't for me).
    Second, do a reset. Hold the top and home button until you see the Apple logo. Once the phone has been reset, it may start working again.
    Third, do a restore. With your iPhone plugged into iTunes, click the restore button on the phone summary page. When prompted, try a restore from backup first. If this doesn't cure the problem, you'll need to do a restore to factory settings, which is what finally cured the problem for me.
    Hope this helps.

  • My i phone will not open my yahoo mail, but sits and spins. I have reset the phone and network and still no help. Any other ideas?

    My i-phone stopped receiving e-mail on a regular basis.  Rather, it will sit and spin trying to load and then stop.   Usually, sometime in the night, it will all of a sudden load all of my mail, but then will not load new mail again.  I have updated and reset the phone and network, and the problem remains the same.  Does anyone know a fix for this issue?

    Try deleting the account, restarting your phone and then reinputting the account.

  • IPad will not open email attachments using webmail ?

    Hi We own a iPad 3, OS5.1.1 ( the iPad belongs to my wife ) therefore she has her own account set up using the iPad's email programme ( I do not have my email account on this iPad as we want to keep our accounts seperate)  When I login to my email account using my webmail I can not open any attachement wheather it be pdf.doc,txt ext etc ? when I select the document ( attachment ) nothing happens - if my wife has any pdf's attached to her emails using the iPad's email programme they open without any problems ? I have spoken to my email provider as a webmail programme should be able to open attachments connected with an email - but they are not at all helpful they are suggesting that the problem is with the iPad which I am not at all convinced by unless I am advised other wise by anybody with a technical experience of this problem. We have 3rd party apps such as PDF Reader and also iBooks which can read ePub files - can any body help with this - I am not talking about downloading files here, I am simply talking about the capacity to just open and read an attachment which I can not do with our iPad - we have plenty of memory and drive space, therefore I think it is a bug which might be due to a combination of the webmail programme and the iPad not working with each other - or simply something that is not apparent to me Any help would be much appreciated Many Thanks Mavis

    I had the same problem.
    A colleage sent an email from an ipad with a pdf attachment (via FileApp Pro) and while the email arrived OK and the Inbox shows an attachment there is nowhere to click and open the document from.
    The name of the pdf is listed in the detail of the message but there is no icon within the message to open it with. 
    The first page of the pdf file was shown within the message too.
    The trick was to click and hold somewhere within the first page (displayed in the email).
    This prompts the "Open in ..." popup from which you can open your preferred pdf reader to see the whole document.
    Hope this helps.

  • JPG's saved using Photoshop and emailed to mobile phones will not open

    I am using CS5 on a Mac OSX.
    I am pretty proficient with Photoshop and have been using this version for several years. This may not be a new situation, I may just have discovered it.
    I have emailed from Outlook to two different iPhone (both 5's) and an Android phone. I don't know what the message was on the Android but on the iPhone it starts downloading then displays a greyed out box labeled "mime-attachment".
    I have tried changing the file size. I have tried 8 and 16 bit settings.
    There isn't any problem opening the files on notebooks and desktop computers.
    If I import the file into iPhoto (a Mac program for managing and editing photos) and then resave it, the jpgs email perfectly.
    Any ideas?

    Thank Imransim, looking at the mime threat it gave me an idea to try another approach. I tried sending the files using Hotmail and they emailed and were received perfectly.
    Conclusion is that the problem is Outlook on my Mac. I will get someone else to use Outlook and send a file saved in Photoshop to my mobile and will report back.

  • Droid Incredible 2 - phone will not open, people will not open, etc.

    Last week my Droid Incredible 2 started acting funny. First I can no longer open the phone tab to make a call. I also can not see my contacts through the people icon. When i get a message I also no longer see the photos and names, only the phone number. Everything else on the phone is working. I also receive an error which says "Google services framework (process com. google. process. gapps) Stopped unexpectedly". I have powered the phone off and let it sit then powered back on a few times this has not fixed the problem. I have the most current update. It seems like a software issue, but not sure how to fix it. Any help would be great! Thanks

    Have you tried pulling the battery, letting the phone sit for half a minute, re-inserting the battery and restarting the phone?  A battery pull does a soft reset and often solves problems like this.

  • My phone will not open App Store. Immediately closes when I try

    My iphone has been having problems opening apps up on my phone. More recently and most often is the App Store. It will try to open but then immediately closes back to my main screen. It shows I have 2 updates but wont let me update or see anything. This is also happening when I try to click on the events tab on facebook. Anyone else have this problem?

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider if, it comes up. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    Remove all apps from Recently Used list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Tap and hold any icon in this list until they wiggle
    - Press the red (-) to delete all apps from this list.
    - Press the home button twice when done.
    If still a problem restore with your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • My front camera on my phone will not open at all I've already reset, restored, and did a back up and it still won't work

    Hello Engilliam13,
    You may need to contact Apple Support in order to obtain service for your iPhone, as this is the only step remaining from our iPhone Hardware Troubleshooting guide.
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • HT5554 My phone will not open keypad, recents, contacts or numbers.

    Does my iphone need a new SIM card?  The phone part of my iphone is dead.

    Have you tried a reset?
    Quit the Phone app: Double tap the Home button and swipe the app preview page up
    then
    Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

    Does your problem have anything to do with Apple's Time Capsule Wi-Fi router?  The reason I asked is that you posted your question in the section for that.  If not, you might get better response by posting your question in the appropriate iPhone section.  When you do, you should make clear what you mean by "open or load my aps".  I can think of more than one thing that could mean.
