I want to click on an email attachment to preview it before I download it. Is this possible? I am forever having to clean out my download folder.
why won't my attachments open

 

Two days ago all of attachments I receive from any sender show up as a zip file.

I used to receive items as a word doc or jpeg, etc.  Its a giant PIA to download a zip file to look at a collection of pics.

This isn't just one sender, it is all senders, and I seriously doubt most of the senders would even know how to "zip"

What has changed with msn.com?

 Now when I open an email with attachments, I can briefly see "loading blah, blah, blah," but it quickly disappears and I am

left to download the freakin zip file.  

What gives?

 

My hotmail has suddenly gone to Outlook.  I can't download my attachments and don't have time to learn Outlook right now.  How do I go back to my regular Hotmail page without having it viewed in Outlook?
Since from last 5 months, I am not able to write anything in text box areas of a new message. But I can send message with attachments only. While trying write anything in text box areas its showing " Hotmail was not able to complete this request. Microsoft may contact you about any issues you report ". I want to know why it is happening.

I can't download attachments to e-mails.  I am running 64 bit windows 7 and IE9. I have checked have not viruses. it waws working a week ago but now it is not. Only new thing is latest version of flash player installed.

I can open them on my iphone but not on laptop

 

can anyone suggest solution

thnx

Messages forwarded under the same Subject, with attachments, to different addressees are not opening. I get a message which reads, "Hotmail wasn't able to complete this request. Microsoft may contact you about any issues you report."Messages before and after this batch are opening normally.
I would be thankful for a solution.

I am getting the below error message when I try to send e-mails with a scanned attachment from Windows Live Mail. My e-mail server is through Road Runner Cable not Hot Mail. I called Road Runner and they say it is a Microsoft problem.

 

Delete the photo email, create a new one, and try to send it again.

Server: 'smtp-server.san.rr.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8CCC0003
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No

Windows Live Mail is not delivering ANY attachments to emails sent to me.  If persons sending the emails didn't mention the attachments they'd sent in the body of the emails, I wouldn't even know about them as NO warnings of non-delivery or blocking are being displayed in the message headers.  What's going on?  I need to receive attachments and be able to open them.
I can't properly open PDF attachments in Windows 7. I get a message about file conversion with 3 choices and whichever I choose does not work. The choices are Windows default, MS-Dos and a choice of others. These attachments do open properly in firefox. Any suggestions?
