So often I get a photo (small jpg) and I select it in my emails and it tells me the next time I sync itll download it. So - this is true - but its very odd because sometimes itll work and other times it just wont and I keep syncing and it doesnt happen. I dont get it - its weird. Also where are the photos stored once downloaded if it ever does work!?

  1. Find the program's folder, should be in your /Program Files/ ... if you installed yahoo go in the preset folder (you didn't tell active sync to store it on a card or on some other storage area). In the Yahoo Go folder there should be a mail attachments subfolder where all files downloaded from email regardless of type are stored. Note that your preset inbox on your device may save elsewhere too. so your file is likely to be somewhere, try doing a "find" on your device if you know the name of the file, though I've found wm find to be inaccurate, it's worth a try.


  2. It is imperative when downloading to make sure you see what subdirectories the system is downloading them to.  Sometimes it goes to "My Pictures" or "My documents" or some sub directs of those areas.

    If you are using a browser like "Firefox", it keeps all of the downloaded files organized for you automatically just in case you are unable to location.  So, you might want to consider this browser in the future to download.

    Ive had many strange experiences with opening attachments as well.  If you are using an email client like Outlook, you will have to check the options tab to make sure it allows you to open attachments especially pictures.  I had that problem once before and learned that the hard way.

    Sorry, I could not write abc directions on how to fix the problem specifically.  Perhaps you should include more information about the Operating System you are using, the Email Client you are using if so, and ......   There are so many causes and solutions for different typs of applications.  I wish it was all universal!  I know, I am idealistic perhaps.  All the best!

  3. well thoose things happen to my friends so don't worry you just probably can't recieve photos or attachments so try getting better e-mail service
