Everytime I try to open attachments it tells me that "The file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel." And I do not know what this means.\n Could someone please help.    Thanks

The attachment your trying to open has not been associated with an application, meaning that the OS doesn't know what program to use to open it. Download it, save it to your desktop (or where ever you want it) right click on it and select open with, then choose a program from the list thats capable of opening it.

maybe the person who send you the attachments didn't do it properly.  Therefore, the .jpg files are corrupted and you can see them.  If there is not the case, then try to download them. The other choice you get is to use a gmail account....You don't have to download anything. The picture will open in a different window.

Thats a outlook "feature" that extracts potientially dangerous attachement files like *.exe; *.com, *.bat, *.vbs, and so on.\n\nThere are ways to circumvent that:\n- Either you turn that option (security)\n- Or you just zip the files before you send them.\n\nGo for option 2!

You can try a few things.\n\n1) Try saving the attachments - then open them\n2) The attachments may be corrupt - ask the sender to resend\n3) You have a firewall or some security blocking them - you have to try and find out if that is the case\n4) Try accessing your email from another computer and see if you run into the same issue.

If you aren't sure of this file. DELETE it. Could be a virus.\n\nIf file name make some sense to you, extract and see the contents.

It's just like any other folder for.. to keep files in there. But if your are asking if it's a special folder used/created by any program other than you. I would take it someone/program created to upload files from that folder.

yes, its called spyware. This can be done either by you clicking on an attachment or them in your pc, literally only takes a second to install.\nps: never click on attachments that you do not know what they are.\nto get rid of it, only way is to reformat your pc.

WELL TRY TO REFRESH THE PAGE IF THE ATTACHMENT IS IN YAHOO SOMETIMES IT IS NO TYOUR BROWSER BUT THE SITE A LOT OF TIMES. TRY SENDING THE EMAIL TO ANOTHER EMAIL ACCOUNT IF YOU HAVE IT AND TRY TO OPEN IT THROUGH ANOTHER EMAIL PROVIDER AND SEE IF YOU HAVE THE SAME ERROR.  IF YOU DO AND YOU KNOW THAT IT IS A LEGIT EMAIL THEN DISABLE EMAIL SCANNONG TEMPORARILY

it might be that the source file can not really be read. the file might be in use or it is a file format not supported by yahoo mail. i think so. anyway, it says contact server admin.

well the succuess of any attached files in Yahoo depending on their sizes . the attached files or pictures sizes must be small so that they can be attached succussfuly .. try to divide your attached pictures to more than one email if you have any problem in uploading . remember also that the high internet connection speed also assist you upload your attachments easily

I would need to know what kind of file it is. Usually if your computer can't open it, it is because it is either an incompatible file, or  the program that created the file isn't on your computer.

Sounds to me like somebody has screwed up your file associations. Instead of Adobe Acrobat Reader opening the file, Microsoft Paint did it instead.\n\nFind the file in your directory, right-click on it, choose "Open With" then you will hopefully see a list of programs including Adobe Acrobat; choose it and keep your fingers crossed.

There's possibly two problems...\n   Go to the file types  tab  in folders options.  You'll get a list of file extensions. Click on the one that you can't open and it may show you what program will open that file type.  If nothing is there, click on new and browse or type in the name of the program you want to open that extension.  \n\n   The other problem may be that you are not using html viewing in your email program, the file type will not display.  If you view in html, the pics or files should display in your email box.

is the file a wordpad file, or a m.s. word, or works file? If the file they are sending is not a wordpad file, and you are trying to open it using wordpad, sorry it's not going to work~ not compatible.

check to see the file format and size., cos if the file is not support or if it's too big, it's not gonna attach. or it might cos of virus.

Since they were emailed, I think they came up as attachment, just right click and choose save as . and don't forget to name the document. Learn to create a folder and put them there.Always Always make sure that the file type you are saving it as is jpeg. If it don't come up that way, just choose your file type, it will be in the save as box.
