Not able to open files from the internet.

I tried to open the files in the past (trying to find the specific file example, but not ablt to) and I get a new window and it appears asking me to select a language. I chose "default windows" and English of the West, but always 'open' the file in a number format. I don't know what is happening or how to fix it. These were not large files, and it doesn't all the time.

Hello

Looks like you are trying to open binary files - those that are coded and require special
programs to decode them. Some can even be designed to open, like executibles (.exe
and .com) or. DLL files among many others.

If you need to be able to open a specific file type control these sites and if necessary ask questions on
them, in a message.

  • Satellite A100-756: browsers close attempt to download files from the Internet

    I bought a Satellite A100-756 just before Christmas and it has been running XP Pro SP2 absolutely fine without any problem.

    I've upgraded to Vista Ultimate this weekend and I can't download files to PC from the Internet using ANY web browser I installed.

    I dropped all the security settings just in case it was the cause of the problem but still can not do.

    If I click on a link to downliad an exe file, for example, the Run/save/Cancel dialog pop up, if I click on RUN it run the application, but if I click on SAVE, the browser closes right down.

    The same thing happens if I'm going to transfer a system file to MySpace or one of my web servers via HTTP.

    I tried IE7 +, FireFox & Opera and all do the same thing.

    It's the exact even if it is a pure install or an upgrade, and the same copy of Vista works fine on all the other machines I have here (I installed to test just in case it's a Vista only bug. it's only the Toshiba that has the problem.)

    Nothing is written to the event logs, or error report.

  • I can not display all images downloaded from the internet on Windows 7

    OK, so I just Windows 7.  I am trying to save documents that my teachers put up online in the form of a pdf file.  However when I try to open them I recorded them in Picasa it appears as a black box, saying "invalid Image".  In the Photo Viewer Windows it says "Could not be opened because the file format is not supported or you do not have the latest updates for the Windows Photo Viewer."  But I installed the latest version, as well as the latest Picasa.

    Also, I'm fully able to open other images (the ones I imported out of my phone etc.)

    What is the problem?

    Thanks in advance!

    PDF is not a picture itself, but you need a PDF reader to open them. Either try
    www.Adobe.com (Adobe Reader - do not add extra) or try
    Good alternative to Adobe Reader is Foxit

  • Reading files from the internet and write them on a computer

    Hello

    I'm working on a program to copy files from a location on the internet to a local file on a computer.
    The file is a .swf file, so I read the data of the file on the internet in a ByteBuffer and then write it to a file on the computer...
    But it does not work... It copies the file, but the .swf run right
    However, when I use essentially the same procedure to copy a file from a local file to a local file on the same computer, it copies very well...
    As far as I know I'm copying the files in these two circumstances the same way, with only a few changes to connect to a URL...

    I can publish the source code in a day or two if it would help to explain better...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    in. Read (Byte []) is not guaranteed to fill the table. You read in a loop until it returns-1.

    At the very least, check the return value from read() call. If it does not say that you have read the full file, there is your problem. If she says that you have it done read the complete file, then there is another issue that is not immediately obvious to me. I just hooked this one because he jumped in the eyes me like an obvious no-no.
