hi. how do I save an attachment from email in lumia 730??

I have recently shifted from BB to Lumia 730. When I open an attachment from my emails, it takes me to flipkart ebook screen and the attachment opens. I dont know why is flipkart ebook screen appears every time I open the attachement. And there is no option of saving the attachment. Options shows only, 1. pin to start 2. Change Orientation. Can anyone help me with this??

What kind of an attachment are you trying to save? That will help a lot. WP doesn't act like BB or Android.

With email you need to tap the file to download it and when it opens it will open with the appropriate app. Word, Excel, PDF etc.

With Office docs it should save the files in the Office hub. (Office app on WP)

With PDFs it will stay with the PDF program as the app is not native to WP and is sandboxed. To get around this use the MS PDF program and upload to OneDrive then download to the phone.

Images once opened should save to the Camera Hub in Saved Files.

If you want to look through the folders you have access to on the phone (not sandboxed apps) you can use this app.

Hope that helps.
