Hi Kimber, Do you not have OneDrive set up on your laptop? Anything in OneDrive should automatically download to your OneDrive folder on your laptop. I actually have reassigned my Documents, Music and Pictures folders to be in my c:\users\sieghard\OneDrive folder since I have multiple computers and want all my documents, music and pictures to be on all of them. This way anything I save into my Documents folder or one of the subfolders there will upload to OneDrive and consequently download to any other computer where I have my OneDrive set up.
Anyhow, as for emailing, you can do this in one of two ways: 1. Go to your OneDrive app, find the file and use the Share feature, the native Mail app should be listed and when selected it should open with the file attached. 2. Start a new message to yourself in the Mail app on your phone, then when you are in the message body, turn the rotor once counter-clockwise and you should be on Edit. Now flick up or down with one finger until you get to "Add attachment". Double tap and you can select your OneDrive, find the file and attach it. Best regards, Sieghard -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kimber Gardner Sent: Wednesday, January 4, 2017 7:26 AM To: viphone <[email protected]> Subject: Getting a document off my iPhone and on to my laptop Hi All, This feels like a question that should have an easy answer, but if it does, I can't figure it out. I created a document in Word on my phone and I have copies both on the device and saved to Microsoft One Drive. I thought I could email the document to myself and open it on my laptop for further revising, but when I tap the "share" button, I get the message that I should "get outlook" to send the attachment. I don't want Outlook on the phone because I am happy with the native mail app. But I don't see another way to get the document over to my laptop. The second part of the question, if there is a way of accessing the OneDrive copy on the laptop, I don't know how to do that either. So can someone help me out? This really should be more intuitive, which explains why I cannot yet use my iOS devices for serious writing. Thanks in advance for any help.
