Hello all,
thanks for taking the time to read this and even more thanks if you have a constructive answer to this issue.
I have been researching ways to get files out of my email and onto my PC using the USB connection (I am trying to eliminate the second wireless connection). It seems generally easy if you have an App on the phone to read them and that talks to iTunes. If you don't there seems to be some Jailbreak methods also.
I don't want to go the Jailbreak road and there isn't an App to read everything that can be emailed. Surely (no comments Red!) there is an App that will turn an attachement into something like a Zip file which can be transferred off the phone with iTunes and unzipped on the PC for use in its native Application.
I am currently tackling AutoCAD files but I realised this could be a problem with any file type. So I won't bore you with the possible long winded solutions I have found for that file type.
A solution that I may have found involves using 'Google Docs' and the 'Documents to Go premium' app. I am not sure if email attachements can be saved from the iPhone onto Google Docs though. The rest of the process seems supported by D2Gp, as described above using iTunes.
Does anyone understand this issue and has better still someone found a reasonable solution.
thannks and kind regards,
