Hello to all, I need some help from some of you. Friends send me e-mails
sometimes that has short movies in them. The media player plays most of
them. The ones that wont play has a pop up that says, This file does not
have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an
association in the folder option control panel. I guess I am not smart
enough to do this myself. I would appreciate any help from you people that
are more savy than me.

Thanks a lot

Did you try the suggestions you received when you asked this exact same

If the attachments are Power Point Slides or Quicktime video, you'll need to
have those programs to your computer in order to view the attachments.
