hello; there is a person who sends me photos. they will never open.
I have to use the save attachments feature and then use command i to
correct the file extensions. once i change his .jpg src= to just .jpg
they work just fine. perhaps you could try saving them and then
renaming them from dat to doc. i mean you know they are doc files?
good luck, max

Hi, I've tried just opening it and it says that there is no default
program set to open the file with. How do I go about setting that?

There are 2 things I can think of to try. First try control
clicking and try quick look after which you might be able to save it
out as whatever you want. Another option is to try control clicking
and then open with. When opening these files with TextEdit, there
may be jibberish at the top and bottom of the page that you might
have to erase out. Hope this helps and maybe others have ideas too.

or .docx word files are showing up as .dat documents when sent to my
email as attatchments. I can't open and view them. Since these are
college documents this is a problem! What do I need to do to fix
this? I need to open these documents.
