OneDrive app question - uploading / "sharing" URL's to OneDrive - Off-topic

Hoping for some test feedback from other users about their experience and outcomes "sharing" URL's to OneDrive app.
On a website in your browser, click the ellipsis menu and then the Share option, then choose OneDrive, then select a folder in your OneDrive to upload to, then click the tick icon.
Can you let me know if it uploads at all? And if it does, does it upload a text file (.txt with the URL inside) or a URL directly?
I'm quite sure in the past OneDrive used to upload a URL, but now mine is uploading a text file with the URL inside. And sometimes it's failing completely and the uploads just sit in a queue. Microsoft have told me they DON'T support sharing URL's to OneDrive.
Thanks in advance.

[Q] How to save/download pics from email/web

I realize I'll probably get yelled at because the answer is probably somewhere painfully obvious, although I've searched and haven't found anything... How exactly do you save/downloads pictures from the browser or email, etc to your phone? I tried to do a long press and wait for the option to come up, but just isn't happening for me.
Please be nice, it's been a long day... :-/ lol
I struggled with this myself...
for the browser it is long press/hold and an option will come up, but if your at the mobile version of the website you wont be able to (except for some sites) if you switch to desktop view (full html) you will get the long press/hold options.
Email (gmail client) I have not been able to figure it out not sure if there is a way to, except for clicking the attachment and let it open on your phone then save as within the program that opened the attachment or picture, or open gmail in the browser
hope this helps a little, If someone else knows a way please shed some light
I'm trying out 2.2 and have the default email client (not Gmail) set up to sync with an exchange server. I can't open jpg files sent as attachments. I can open other formats (pdf, doc, etc).
I assume this is because the email client doesn't think there's an app set to default for jpg files, but Gallery and Astro both have viewers and open just fine when I click on a jpg file already on my device.
Does anyone know where/how I set the default jpg viewer in such a way that the email client recognizes it?
Thanks!

black moon doesn't seem to work with the default email app (not gmail). It's probably the apps problem. I don't see any way to preview on attachment. As I posted earlier,I only have this problem with jpegs. I can open other files attachments. The open/preview button just isn't there on the jpeg attachments. But thanks for the suggestions!
I was able to open email, pull down notification bar, tap down arrow of attachments, option to save or open attachment.

[Q] Save Email Attachments?

Any idea how to save email attachments in POP email, specifically JPG and PDF?
The HTC Help page says the following:
"Save an attachment
Select email with attachment, download the attachment, tap the Preview icon, press the Menu key, Select Save or Save as."
However, I do not see a 'Save' or 'Save As' option when I follow these instructions.
Any thoughts? TIA!
I don't have the Vivid, but if it works like other HTC phones when you click on the attachment it's probably getting saved to a /download folder either in internal memory or on an SD card.
When you download a PDF email attachment, it is automatically saved in the Adobe Reader on your SD Card under Downloads.
For jPeg, when you download a jpeg from an email, it is automatically saved in the Gallery in the All downloads folder.
The intructions you refer to are for other file types.
Sorry to hijack the thread here but it is the same subject that I want to know. When my wife sends me a video of my 2 year old from her iPhone it comes as .MOV file. The Gmail app which is what I use for both of my email accounts does not give me the option to download or preview the file. Is this normal and if so is there a way around it?

A simple task for a PDF

Ok, so I am applying to colleges and I was using my HD7. I got some stuff scanned and downloaded it to a PDF to my windows phone. I open my email to send it to the college push attach and the only thing I can attach are pictures? I don't get how a phone designed for business can't attach a PDF file to an E-Mail. Am I doing something wrong?
If you've downloaded them to your Windows Phone then they should show up within the Office App (although it can't open them directly, they should still show up there if you saved the PDF files properly... in order to attach them in an email, within the Office App swipe over until you get to the page labeled "locations" --- select "Phone" and then long press down on the document you need to send... Then simply select "Share" when the popup menu appears... Select your desired method of sharing (email in your case) and the document is now attached... I'm pretty sure you need to have the PDF file saved in the My Documents directory on your phone for this to work... Do some quick searching & I'm sure you'll find out how if you don't already know...
Cheers...

[Q] How does auto upload work?

In the account settings there are things like "Sync Picasa Web albums" and "Sync Instant Upload". I assume those have something to do with automagically uploading pictures as soon as I take them.
Is it possible to write an app that would add yet another automatic upload feature? Some kind of special intent that is recognized. What jargon would I search for in android docs to learn how to do this?
I'd like to see if I could upload pictures automatically to a local web server on my LAN, no "clouds" involved.
This is just curiosity, I'd like to learn how this stuff works.
Auto upload uploads photo and video as soon as you capture it. Google instant upload is in Google+ app, where you can activate/deactivate it.
Auto upload is also on Dropbox app and also in AllShare app, so you more programs for auto uploading.
I tested them and because I have slow internet connection and I wanted other features I created own upload feature in my program that uploads files onto PC (via wifi or usb cable).
