She sent it from her blackberry didn't she?
I had the same problem last night. My wife sent me a photo from her Blackberry, and I got some error message about security when I tried to open the photo.
Well, this frustrated me, so I aimed to figure it out, and as of about 30 minutes ago, I have.
In my Outlook e-mail inbox (which accesses my Gmail), press, AND HOLD, on the long, gibberish file name. A little window will popup that says, "save as...".
Select that, and then a new screen will open up. Change the "name" to something simple, and then the photo will save properly. To verify that it has worked, just go into albums, and you should see the photo.
I hope this helps you.

Does anybody know a way of how to copy texts messages I get from my phone to my computer so I can print them? Showing time received and who received from, etc..?
I need them for court puposes, but am not sure how to do so.
Thanks!
Very good question....Im interested as well....not for the same reason...but just curious whether it can be done.

Take your stylus and highlight the text message -- including the header that shows the date, time and sender. Tap and hold for the popup menu and "Copy".
Open Word Mobile or your Notes app and "Paste". If you've set ActiveSync to sync your files, it will sync to your computer the next time to sync.
I kinda figured that is how its done....but Im too much of a noob with this phone to post possible wrong information.
Is there anyway to do this with a Mobile Smartphone like the Samsung Blackjack as well?
Does the Windows Mobile Email client allow for automatic HTML download/display (like most other phones do today) as a preview or even after the actual email is being displayed. Is there a special setting to make this happen? I am coming from a Blackberry 9700 (a great device) and I am used to seeing certain emails in HTML even in preview mode. With the HD2, I only see text. Is there a Fix to this?
Thanks in advance.
I would like to know this too. With my iPhone, it automactically d/l the HTML email with all pics but on HD2, it doesn't. Something about "protecting my privacy". Is there anyway to make it auto download without clicking the links?
im with you guys on that. i thought i could just activate it but i guess not. Plz...if anyone knows a fix it would be greatly appreciated.
Hey guys welcome to Windows Phone's. I have been dealing with this on every one of my devices, it is one of my very few complaints with WM. I know you can have the images automatically download on iPhone and blackberry, but you cant with WM or even Android for that point. I do remember a thread about the feature awhile back and it was mentioned that it was actually a security feature built into Windows Mobile.

I agree I enjoyed the one for android using my Touch Pro2. I am sure there will be one for WP7S but hopefully one for WM 6.X as well

Or you could just...
...go to eBay.com...?
go to your inbox , select menu-tools-options, tap on account , select download size settings,
there you can choose message format , select do you want just text, headers or entire message (with pics) to be downloaded. or you can just set attachment limit for autodownload.
try reading phone manual next time

I have changed these settings every time I set up my emails accounts after every time I flash a new ROM (sometimes 4-5 times weekly) from my 8125, Moto Q, Wing, Vogue, Diamond, Touch Pro, Imagio, Touch Pro2, and now HD2. Yes those settings are there but to get the picture to display, you have to hit Internet pictures blocked and then you can click Download Internet pictures.
As fas as I know there is no solution to that. It is the way Pocket Outlook works. On one hand that is a problem, since pictures don't get downloaded, on the other hand though, it saves a bit of bandwidth and time, if you don't really want to download all these pictures.
I got used to that. At least the HD2 has a great screen and the Pocket Outlook client works really well on it.
Anybody know why once the pics load, they are jaggie/low res? I know this is nitpicking but c'mon, there has to be a way to make them sharp or is it due to Opera Mini?
hello peeps, just want a quick tip please..
When viewing emails on my TP2 i get an 'internet pictures blocked click here' link.... anyone know how to download the pictures automatically without having to click the link all the time ?
Also if anyone knows how to do the same for the 'tap here to scroll right' link that'd be great.
Cheers.... drawflex
*bump* yea same issue anybody know how to solve it?
+ plus one for this as well!!!!!
this is a very small issue but it sure is an annoying one for me . there always seems to be some kinda problems when i hit download, tells me i have to wait for the next full download for that email account, which i think is silly because i hit download for it to download now, not later lol you know what i mean, other times it seems to just go into a endless loop asking me to download then telling me to wait and then asking me again to download, rinse and repeat lol.....
There's gotta be a reg edit out there or something that can do it!!!
Any pros out there wanna take a whack at it?? I wouldn't even know where to start lmao.....thanks a lot!!!
If you delve a little deeper into your mail settings:
Tools>Options>Download Size Settings>
Make sure you enable Download Entire Message and also Download attachments

If you delve into your email you would see that this does not work for automatically downloading the pics in an email.
/BUMP\ Anyone with some light they wanna shed on this one ? looks like it aint just me getting a little bit annoyed with this hangup.
This is an age old problem with the WM email application dating farther back since WM5. There is still no fix available till date for this annoyance.
ok mate... thanks all the same .

wow that sucks!!! thanks for the info man!!
if the sender is in your 'my contacts' group in gmail (I can only speak on experience with gmail) it seems to work.
I keep getting a notification to request friends from HTC Sense Friends. However all the friends are just listed as "Orange" with the option Request or Ignore.
How can I disable this?
Thanks
What happens is HTCSense.com syncs all your contacts to it's database. In your case, you have "Orange" in your phone book.
When someone else with "Orange" in their phone book (you can imagine that it's quite a lot!) syncs up with HTCSense.com, then HTCSense.com goes "Oh look! This is the same person, maybe these people are buddies!" and suggests that you might be friends with them.
I get it with "Vodafone" and "Voicemail" too. I also had "Aaaaa" which was a remnant of an old featurephone that I would always end up pocket-calling (was one of those phones where pressing the select button takes you into the menu, then the phone book, then the first contact, then calls it - so I put a dummy entry in to stop it from calling anyone!)
Easiest way around it is to rename your contacts to something else. So you could change "Orange" to "Orange Customer Services" - however you'll probably find that someone else has that too...so you might need to get more obscure with your naming!
Or you just disable HTCsense sync (Options->Accounts and sync).
If you don't really use it, there's no point of it draining ur battery while u sleep
what exactly does HTCsense sync do ?
i mean if we stop it from syncing , will that affect the sense.com website and we wont be able to track the phone or ring/lock it ?
Hi all, I'm getting the same thing. At first I was ignoring them but they kept coming back so I clicked the Request button to see if it would go away, but no it says I have them as friends but offers more of the same contacts (main one being "show balance") to add as freinds. Can someone please help cos this happends every second day?

Sorry about that I should have addressed it as I'm still getting the same thing. I did change them by removing letters and it was still showing up and found out it's the number its finding, but after all that I found out that it was O2 numbers from when I joined HTC Sence with a HD2 desire rom and now I'm with vodafone and they aren't applicable so have now deleted them
very sorry about that, I am a Noob
Hello everyone I have tried searching for this but cant not find it. the one link that I did find returned a dead page.
What I am asking today is in reguards to CyanogenMod 7 and messaging. I text a lot and find it annoying that the "Me" in messages does not have my picture in it. Before I went from stock everything to CM7 I had the ability to edit me contact card and this allowed my pic to display for my messages sent. But now I can not find out how to do. I was told to do Settings > Call Settings > Additional Settings > My Phone Number but I do not see additional settings.
While it is not a big thing it does annoy me as my OCD kicks in and I see received pics of the contact but an android bot as my pic. Can anyone help me out with this.
BTW here was the dead thread link

I'm not sure if this is the right way or what, but it's pretty easy. Just create a new contact using your own phone number. Name the contact 'Me'. Then select a picture of yourself to set as the photo for the 'Me' contact. Save your changes. Your picture should now appear in the text mesaging threads as the Me contact.

I will try this to see if it will work, but that will last till my OCD kicks in when I try to make my contacts look better LOL.
Will post back if it does/does not work.
Edit- Thanks k2buckley that did it. Appreciate the help with that. But having "Me" in my list will bug me in a bit I am sure. Stupid OCD LOL

It should work. I use that method on every AOSP rom I've ever used, because I also hate seeing the blank spot on the 'me' contact. Should work no problem.

My text has my gmail picture....I think I uploaded it to latitude once and it got associated with gmail.
Anyhow, you should be able to add a contact pic to your gmail and it will show up.
My phone also has the same picture in my contacts where I have put all my information for myself. I didn't associate it with this contact, so it must be done through Gmail.
