problem with saving pics from the net
 

Hi guys!
i got a big problem when I want to save a picture from the net I can only save it as .bmp. Even if the picture is jpeg or gif I can't save it as anythign else other than bmp. I use winxp. Does anyone know how I can fix this ? would appreciate the help :)

format c:

delete your IE cache and it will work

more specifically your temp. internet files, "delte files" button, check the box that says 'delete all offline content'

Too easy.

1) http://www.apple.com/switch Buy a computer.
2) Install Mozilla.
3) Problem solved. Permanently.

This happens to me a few times a week. Normally just opening the page up in a new IE window will take care of it.

Yes, you should delete your Temporary Internet Files, it's the solution.

yep that fixed it!
thanks everybody :)

When I try to download a .jpg file it always wants to save it as .jpe

Anyone know how to fix this?

don't have an answer for you, but My IE want's to save' em as .jpeg, tried everything I know of. And know they are not .jpeg's they are .jpg's

i got this working the other night by using

"email picture" then email it to yourself :)

long winded, but on this site I deleted my cache and it had no effect.

I did a search and found something about IE gets a problem sometimes when saving pictures from a password protected area or something.......maybe check this :

*************************
this is a known bug in IE that has several causes, the most common of which being that the temporary internet cache is full. The solution to this is to empty your cache.

Reference this Microsoft TechNet doc for more detailed information

Thats probably in your preferences under something like "allow all file extensions"

A jpe is basically a jpeg with the g cut off. :winkwink:

Now that's just gay.
A. Apples are for fags and little girls.
B. IE doesn't run on Mac. You can't build usable web sites on a Mac and view them.
C. Mozilla is a more foul piece of shit than that consumption junction banner.
D. Apples are fucking gay.

Ditto...this process works for me...not that I take pics from the net! huuummmmm

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

i had an apple when i was 10. by 12 i got smart and made the switch to windows.

Were you a girl when you were 10 years old?

same shit causes not being able to see the source of a webpage

goto Dell and buy a new computer. This has happened to me several times. That is why I have 400 computers. :-) j/k

clear that cache more often..
