    Hey everyone I am wondering if anyone is having trouble opening attachments on the new Z10. I can open all of them on my Bold but I have a couple (one being a picture my daughter sent me ) that opens on my bold but not on the new phone . It says "no viewer available for "unnamed"" which is what it called the photo she attached. The other is an email from a friend with a bunch of photos from the internet. Once again it opens on Bold but not on Z10.
    AS a defender of BB for a long time and really loved the bold other than screen size and time it took to connect to wifi, I am slightly overwhelmed switching to the new phone. I think for people like myself who love the simplicity of BB and its real keyboard this device is a bit of a stretch. I have tried android phones and kept going back within hours to my Bold because it was so easy to text and email. I must say I am feeling the same about this BB as I did when I tried the galaxy3. I want a new phone but I sure like Bolds familiarity. I was up for hours trying to sync contacts I tried both device swap with the sd card and using desktop manager which updated to new format. It didn't work the first time for some reason but did work the second time. I hope that there are not to many more of these type of problems as I feel a little(more than a little) frustrated that the very basic things like contacts switching and email attachment bugs should not be an issue on a phone that was worked over for sooooooooo long.
    Anyone else have this email problem and a solution?

    Same problems here, I tried to switch from 9900 to Z10 but wound up returning the new phone (very sadly I might add). Tell me, when you brought your text messages from the Bold to the Z10, do you now find the texts cannot be sent from Z10?

    I am not sure except that the picture my daughter sent was from her I phone but she was just forwarding it from someone else.

    sometimes when pics are forwarded many times they get corrupted, unlikely to be issue but still an option

    The "cannot send text messages after transferring text messages from BlackBerry 7 or lower" issue is a known one. BlackBerry is working on it. For now, there's a somewhat unpleasant fix:

    KB33653-BlackBerry 10 device is not able to send or receive text messages after restoring SMS messages data from BlackBerry 7 or lower device

    That's weird. I've gotten plenty of picture attachments, power points, pdfs,and even a wmv video which all opened perfectly fine. I was actually shocked when it started playing the .wmv

    Guys, does anyone know if it will be fixed? I have noticed this only happens when my colleagues forward the messages to me from the Iphone, It is both images and pds,, they are just called "unnamed" and Z10 doesn't recognise them

    I had the same problem, also from BB9900, I had to reset the z10 3 times, I couldn't copy my contacts. At the end, I decided to not port anything from the old device, and copied my contacts through Bluetooth

    Scroll down the body of emails to view pictures from iPhone or other devices. All there, but needs fixing.

    Same problem. Unable to open pics forwarded from I phone. It just says no viewer available. Must say really annoying as a lot of people use iphone to send attachments to me.
    Let us know if anyone has any luck with this issue

    Cheers

    I couldn't help but laugh at your response. You realize we're dealing with digital format and not carbon paper?
