Cannot download powerpoint to phone

[kevm14]

I have a PowerPoint file on my SkyDrive and no matter how many times I download the document, it doesn't show up in the Phone section of the office hub. I am trying to attach it to an email because I cannot access SkyDrive from work but I have email. Meanwhile an android toting friend was able to take care of this while I was screwing around with the phone....very irritated.

I was able to download both .ppt and .pptx files from SkyDrive to my phone without any problems, and was also able to attach them to an email. You may have already tried this, but here's what I did -
- Open Office
- Under Locations, select SkyDrive
- Click the file you want to download to the phone
- Click the "...", select Save As
- Make sure the "Save To" field is changed to "phone", and click Save
- Back out until you reach the main Office screen
- Under Locations, select Phone. You should see your file here.
- Click the file to open it
- Click the "...", select share, choose your email profile and email yourself!

Good luck!

Thank you. I didn't see the save as. Kinda weird that I have to open the file before saving it.
