Lumia 950 XL :: Why Can't Open Or Download Files Attached With Email
Dec 26, 2015
Cannot open or download files attached to email on 950xl. Notably word and excel documents will not open or save from email attachment. I have been able to open pdf's.
I am having problems with attached pictures. I have sent pictures (taken with my Blackberry Bold 9700 built in camera) and also from picture files on my Blackberry to my home computer and the attachment won't open! It say's .jpg.attachment-blocked-or-renamed
I have HTC One Max and just today I can't open any download files. States files not supported. I've installed some software but uninstalled due to this problem.
Torch 9810 OS71) Some media require Adobe Flash and when I attempt to play them Adobe says my device does not support it. How do I get Adobe or what do I need?2) Supposedly OS7 has the ability to open ZIP files but so far I am unable to do so. I have a file I need to open but when I try the phone says "unable to open".
Just picked up a Nokia lumia 822 and was wondering how to open downloaded files? Through IE it appears i can only stream a media file and now download it. Through UC Browser it says its downloaded but seems to only let me stream it. I want to download a song and add it to my music library, is that even possible
After downloading the pdf files from internet/mail it shows in the file explorer, but when try to open it, the app pickup list only showing Project Spartan. Nothing else, no Adobe Reader nor PDF reader. I installed another PDF file reader app call Xodo, still no luck.
All my various folders from my tablet's OneDrive were transferred automatically to my Nokia Lumia's OneDrive. However, all the files in my "Favourites" folder show as only 1kb each and have the words "Just me" under each entry. None of them will open. When I try to open one, a warning comes up stating:" We couldn't open the file. Make sure you're connected to a Wi-Fi network" (Which of course I am). Maybe I need an app to open these "Favourite" websites. But which one?
I have voicemail to email that sends as an attachment a .wav file to my email.Does anyone know how to open a .wav file that is attached to my email. It does not even show it as an attachment.
I attached some audio files from a movie to my Notes Lite app. The files exist but my phone does not recognize them. These have a name oI 13 characters of numbers without any extension. I would convert them but I am not able to find their place by Total Commander.
I just can't send emails with attached files. Not ir Email app not it GMAIL app. No matter the size of the file.
I go to the out tray in Email app, and displays a button: Send messages. I click it, it goes "Sending messages..." Then back to the square one. No error message, no nothing. The same with the gMAIL app just that there is no button, just stays in the out tray. However when I forward an email with attached content it would send alright, but no if I attach the file myself, or "Insert" from gallery.
I just downloaded all my music to the phone. A number of these files I've had for "years" and were actually copied from CD's when you could do that sort of thing. Some files just say "track #" on the phone rather then the name of the song. On my computer I have them shown as song title, but obviously the phone picked up something different. Can the title "track #" be changed to the "actual title" and, if so, how?
I have a Galaxy S5 with lots of pictures attached to text messages. When I attach my phone to my PC and search for those pictures, I cannot locate them. Only see the camera shots I took in the DCIM subfolders.
I got a Samsung Rogue for Christmas and the user's manual is not very helpful. I setup the mobile email for my yahoo account but can't figure out how to open jpg files that are either attached or emedded in the email. Also is there a way to adjust the sensitivity of the touch screen, it takes a lot of pressure to select the options.
We purchased two 9800 Torch phones and both are having the same issue. Word, Excel, and PDF files all open fine on the devices. However, some emails will be received with attachments but the phone does not give the open or download attachment options. If you forward the message from the device, the attachment will still be attached. The issue is intermittent and I have not been able to pin down any consistently as I have received several emails with attachments successfully. The emails that will not give the attachment options also do not have the little paperclip on the email icon from the messages view. Again, hen this exact email is forwarded the attachment will arrive at the destination.
BES version 4.1.7.19 Both users had no issues on prior devices with multiple attachments opened daily.
Im not sure why since ive reset my photon the only issue im having is downloading .doc files - the attachment says unsupported file type. Ive downloaded apps like readers and a different yahoo app but no luck - still unable to download those attachments. I havnt found any know issues or anything to support what im saying so maybe Im the only one.
I've been sending quite a few texts and emails with pictures attached for the last few weeks and then only recently realized that they were not being received. Text or emails by themselves with links or just words are fine. Also I tried to set an appointment with an email invitation to others and that also isn't working ever after trying it multiple times.
my lumia 920 was not able to show photos that are attached in a yohoo email.I have the error message "the type of file you're trying to open is not permitted on the phone".But using an iphone to access the yahoo mail, I can easily download and see the JPG pics.
I upgraded from an N8 to the Lumia 920.I weekly receive work emails which have attached to them either xls, doc or PDF files which I was able to open directly with my N8 with Quick office or Adobe PDF reader. Not only that, I could download and store the said documents straight to my phone and open with the Microsoft apps too.On the Lumia I'm unable to do either, even though this has Office 365.I'm unable to open any attachment straight from email with it's inbuilt office suite.I do own Office 2010 on my PC, but what do I need to do to integrate with Office 365?When I added my email address it just duplicated the account and still didn't open attachments?
Been a blackberry 10 user for a long time - considering the new lumia 950. One of the key features I'm looking for is the ability to attach multiple files from cloud storage like google/sky drive, drop box etc.
With bb10, while composing an email i can click attach files it takes me to BB10 file manger which has all my drives integrated - I can choose files from dropbox or skydrive and attach it to an email while replying to an email (remember. I don't have to start with the file manager app to attach files)
I am brand new to the Nokia 710 and I have my AOL email account linked up to the phone. I am able to send and recieve emails just fine.My problem is that when I try to open/download any attachments like a Word or PDF document that are in the emails, they never open. They start to open but never do. I can open these attachements on my old Palm Pixi rather quickly and without any trouble so I know it is not the files that are the problem.
I've searched both this USA forum and the UK one and didn't see anyone else with the same issue... so did I not set up something properly with the phone?
I'm using Lumia 710. One problem that I'm facing is that whenever I download any mp3 files either from any music apps or email, I can't find the same in the Music. How do I get these files in my music? When I download images, docs etc from email/apps, I usually get option : 'save to phone', but the same option is not available for Music files.
