Save the attachment locally then try opening - if it still won't, then the version of Polaris office might not support .XLSX (2007 and up) files. You'd have to get an office app that supports it - I use Officesuite Pro 7. It's more likely you have to save it first though.

So I can't just preview the attachment?
If I do safe it where do I find it to open it

So I can't just preview the attachment?

solved, polaris office was disabled... enabled and files now open.

[App Idea] Automatic picture upload and download using G-Mail

There are quite a few apps that will upload your pictures to the cloud (be it flickr, Live etc) but thats not where I want my pictures, I want them at home on my PC.
I have what I hope is a great idea which I hope would be relatively easy to implement.
Why not use a dedicated G-mail account (created by the user) as a repository for pictures, and have a client on each side (phone and desktop) upload and download the pictures.
I see it working this way:
1) You have an app on the phone keeping an eye out for new pictures taken, and when a pic is taken it automatically puts it in the outbox of a dedicated g-mail account as an e-mail with an attachment.
2) Pocket Outlook e-mails the pictures as normal to g-mail.
3) On the desktop, whenever your pc is on, a dedicated e-mail client, using imap or pop, downloads the pictures and then deletes the e-mail. Since g-mail allows many gigabytes of storage your pc wont need to be on all the time, just every once in a while to clear out your e-mail account, and all your pictures are automatically and wirelessly downloaded to your pc.
Advantages - because the normal WM e-mail system is used, you dont need to be connected all the time, you could set it to send and receive 2-3 times per day so it wont have to suck battery. Also because G-mail is used as an intermediary your pc does not have to be on constantly for this to work.
What do people think. To me it sounds feasible and not very complicated. Anyone want to take up the challenge?

Have you seen this, PocketPicasa. It uploads pictures direct to your Google photo album. If you have a decent data tariff it will upload directly or you can set it to email them when you do have a connection.
i think the developer has plans to include offline browsing of your uploaded photos in the near future.
i am using it with Picasa 3 on the PC to synch photos from my desktop. So any i take with my phone and upload are then downloaded next time i run Picasa on the PC.

Does Picassa automatically download photos from your online gallery to your desktop?
Also I think the solution I propose would use a simpler client on both ends, and you wont run into restrictions like e.g. on flickr you can only upload 150 pictures a month (I dont know what picassa's limit is, but the desktop client is very heavy).
The whole point is that it would be seamless and completely automatic.

i have uploaded 200+ images in one go so i don't think there are many restrictions there.
Not sure on the downloading as i haven't really tried it yet.

Downloading is what its all about. I'm not into web 2.0 - I want my data on my PC, not in the cloud.

I just installed the facebook app... Although it looks quite nice, it seems to have a major problem with the comments: For example, if several people comment on my (or a friend's) status update, only the uppermost comment is shown. You do not even know that other comments exist!
Since FB is a social networking tool, and the comments (and the "likes" for that matter, which also seem not be supported) are a fundamental way to communicate within it, the app will be of no use unless these issues are addressed. I do not know whether there is a newer version of FB for mobile available soon, but this one unfortunately is of no use to me...

You can uploading photo to FB with the client Facebook of Microsoft, but you must have a good data connection and the photo should have a resolution of 1M

I upload from my TD2 by email - see http://www.facebook.com/mobile/?ref=pf. Just click on 'send my upload email to me now' and you will be given a dedicated email address.
To send photos, tap the envelope icon in the TD2 album and enter the email address. Whatever you put in the subject line of the email then appears as the photo caption.
Use ShoZu for uploading, gives you a popup immediatly when you've snapped a photo, "upload to facebook?".
Use FB integration for other FB-use. (search forum: "Facebook integration, what is it and how to get it back")

Sorry but your question does not make sense. The HD2, like nearly all cameras, takes photos using the .jpg format and they work (as do other jpegs from other devices too, perfectly well. If you can see the photos that you have taken then you are looking at .jpg files in the built-in HTC album app.
Could you please explain more clearly what problem you have and you will get responses from others too I am sure.

I regularly receive emails with jpeg attachments, and I view them without any problems.
What's your problem? Explain more and we can help
mines the same, just shows the red x in the corner of the box,
i think it must be somthing to do with security settings?
perhaps the original question is why the HD Sense email preview can't see html emails?
I get emails from dilbert.com that are html, when viewed in htc sense preview they are funny symbols, then when I click on the mail it goes into windows mail client and then I have to click to allow internet pictures. Perhaps this is what the original post was about?
P.S. any suggestions to make this easier for me would be good, like getting the mail client to remember the show internet pictures would be good.
You may have set e-mail with google sync (direct push) And I think that there is a problem with attachments. Despite google snyc I do not go (. Jpg, pdf, but example. Doc comes normally)
If we set the standard through the adoption of e-mail account with attachments is no problem
And so I think that google sync using a scheme that does not support a lot of attachments: (
Anyone knows solution to this problem?
IMAP email not downloading JPGs
I am having a very similar issue. I receive email via IMAP from a netaddress.com account. JPG attachment are simply not downloaded. they do not show, not even a placeholder in the message. I have set the phone to download full messages with all attachments - but no hint that a JPG is a attached to the message.
Any ideas?
Microsoft set the security on the Outlook client to not download embeded images in HTML mail.
Just open the mail up and click the download internet pictures option at the top of the mail and the images will be downloaded, and before you ask there is no-way (we have found) to disable this feature.
I have the same problem...
Both with google and imap, when I get mails with attachments I see the attachments, can click on them to download them, but then when clicking to open them I get a message saying "Unable to display document", even with simple JPGs. No way to open any image from the mail client, which is highly annoying. Anyone got an idea?
Embedded images don't work with google as mentioned, but they're fine on IMAP.
Similar problem
On my TP2 I have similar problem. In addition, when I save JPG attachment from message downloaded by IMAP account, it has zero size (0 b). Other attachments (e.g. BMP) are OK.
I have it too but it has to do something with Coreplayer of TCPMC (whatever it is called)
Coreplayer takes over all media systems when you install it. Normally i went to options and unchecked the JPEG box. But now even that does not help anymore.
So basiclly you have to change it somewhere in the options in your phone I just do not know where.
HELP!!! can't see jpg format from email attachment
On my HTC Touch HD I have the same problem.
On my IMAP account I can see a message with attachments. If they are jpg file type, after I mark and download them, they have zero size (0 b).
Other attachments (e.g. ZIP, CAB, etc) are OK.
Can anybody help us to solve this situation?

PWI Problems

ok so im out on site and i scribble down a note on "note" on my HD, i then email it to the office, they cant open it!!
active sync is not installed on this desktop, and i do not sync with this PC, all my notes will be emailed thru to them.
Is there a way for them to open them and view them as an image??
no one!
Why dont you get a screen capture program for your phone and then email the notes as Jpeg images? They cant view the notes on the other end because the file format is different.

Email bug in SGS2 - no attachments

Hello,
Did You know, how to resolve problem like that:
when i receive an e-mail with attachment files, i can't do anything with that.
Standard email client in SGS2, in email did't see this attachment files.
When i make, answer or reply...i can see this files in attachment in edition mode.
What can i do to see this file in my inbox in email which i read.
I see on list, that there is a attachment, but when i open the email, there is no attached docs.
What should i do? What is the best way to resolve problem...
Best regards,
Krzysiek
When you open the mail (the one which actually does have an attachment)
wait for few moments.. depending upon the connection speed and size of attachment
it will take some time if attachment is big and connection slow
just below the subject line...
there will be a clip sign and the number of attachments... on the right of it will be a down arrow.
click the down arrow to expand it and show all the attacments..
each attachment will have a floppy disk sing on its right
you can click it and download attachment
if you wish to forward the mail with attachment you can forward as is...
but if you reply..the attachment doesnt gets attached automatically (makes sense)
in order to reply the sender with the original attachment you need to download /save the attachment on the phone...then attach it back on the reply mail.
it works for me in the standard email client
Thats correct....
Also i think they should include a Reply to all. When you recieve and email with some recipients you can only do a reply to the main person unless you do a copy/ paste.
honestly, i use the Yahoo & Gmail client for my primary mails..checking/replying/sending
The default email client is used for other secondary mails... and only to check mails... sending/replying if required is from MS Outlook
This standard email client in SGS2 is not upto the mark i must say
The problem could be a couple of things. Most likely is in the settings and each email download limit.
Is it a POP/IMAP/Exchange account?
Yes. it's the pop3 account. But now these are old mails, which was downloaded few weeks ago. When email come, i can see attachment, but now, when i open really old mail with attach, i can't see it...
