JH7 QuickOffice - Captivate General

It is nice to have a QuickOffice available to create docs.
However I use MS Office 2007 at work and am not able to open the files.
Anyone else have this issue and or a fix?

sorry but what version is the one that came with JH7?

Save your files in office using the file types that don't end with an 'x'. For instance, use .doc, not .docx.

This is what mine shows as well. Just won't open anything from Office 2007. I did try to save a document with Word and told ot to save as 2003 and it Will open. Just when i ge files from other people I can not tell everyone to do that.
I think this version Will not work with the native Office 2007 files.
Ty all for the help.

Quick Office Preinstalled?!

I downloaded a map of my school (going back tomorrow) in PDF form and tried to open it and quick office came up. I can't edit anything, probably due to it being a PDF, but I'm going to test a doc file and see what happens. BRB
Update: Seems to work with docs and other office files but you can't edit
I don't ever recall downloading this. I'm rooted with Cyanogen's addon that's all.
/system/app/PassionQuickOffice.apk

I tried, but the world was not ready for my message.
why doesn't it have an icon? I haven't had the need to use it, I'm guessing it is a read only type of app?
Mine opened a Powerpoint (.ppt) file with Quickoffice too and my device is completely stock at the moment. I don't see quickoffice in the list of apps, though.
I just installed Quickoffice from the Market then I got it on the list of apps. Since it's the free version, it has very limited functionalities.

[Q] exchange mail attachments won't download

All I see is little android guy with paperclip.
Why is it that so many things that should work out of the box on this phone requires a forum post? Maybe I'm just slow today.
Did you install the free office viewer? Search captivate in the market.

Quickoffice for Captivate.
I tried that.
But thanks for your post I gave it another go, and now, I have found my issue: .... the email attachment I used for my experiment was a PPTX and it doesn't recognize it ... only PPT
I re-did the experiment with a PPT attachment and it is fine.

You can download the free (read-only) version of Documents To Go app. This one supports PPTX. The QuickOffice app leaves a lot to be desired by it gives you capability to edit office docs as well as PDF viewing for free. So I had both on my phone.

Ereader app from stock Tab

Im looking for the e reader app that was on the demo vid Samsung put out about a month back. Im not talking about the mag, newspaper, book one. there was also an app that only said "ebook" or something like that under the icon. It had a bookshelf and good looking animations when a book was opened (page turn etc. . .). I d/l Kobo but that does not look like the one Samsung was demoing, and kobo does not have any type of lage turn anamations. I have the US T Mobile version and it seems like it was removed for some reason. does anyone know what im talking about and does amyone have the apk for this?

Well, looking at it, it's certainly not Amazon Kindle or Aldiko. Possibly Kobo?

I d/l Laputa and it looks and acts almost the exact way the demo was showing..save for a few things..but that may be just Samsung customizing the app for its own use. Anyone here with the EU version that has this installed?
I'll have to look at the Nook reader and see how that one works..
The Laputa reader work very well and has very smooth page turning effects..so far I'm liking this one.
Here you go:
Maybe in exchange I could get my hands on the media hub from the US version. That, or maybe the demo versions of NOVA or Asphalt5 (not the market version) that came pre-installed on your device.

how do you install this? i unzipped it and its a ebook folder.
I think I know what your problem is: if I remember correctly, the .apk format is itself just a renamed .zip, so your unzipping tool is probably working a bit overzealously, and extracting both. Make sure you only unzip one level, and you'll be fine.
I found that the instructions in the last post here work.

Download the files and do what he says.
Worked in my Tmo Galaxy Tab.
News and Kobo reader worked in ReadersHub and the magazines app worked in the Readin app.

Maybe try copying the apk to /system/app manually?
Other than that, sorry, no clue.

Anyone figure out how to install this?
Didi u try to rename extension from zip to apk?
Anyone been able to get the Ebook app to run on a US tab?
Tried to install it on every possible way, them I installed the nook reader (eu user have to use market enabler and fake themself as american to download it) from the market.
Page turn animation and double page in landscape, and that is what I wanted from the samsung app. And it's even implemented better!

Yep, full epub support, you have to put your books in /sdcard/Nook/MyDocuments amd you may have to open "my files" a pair of time for the books to appear.

Its called nzb leech, search for it on android market
Cheers!
Ok, it downloads nzb files, but does it unpar them as well?

+1.. almost everything is in rar...
you guys are talking about reparing using the par2 files not unrar right? Anyways that feature is not currently there. Actually neither is unrar
But I agree it would be handy.
Very nice and easy. I would, however, like to see an option to pause, to have a collapsable display of the downloadlist so we don't see every single file being downloaded (handy if you have several things queued). Also, an option to delete the downloaded files after unraring. Would save space and time for the user.
I still use this App. Thanks god przemeknzb still working on it. There is still no competitor.
After a App reboot (3 years ago?) i bought/donate it again.

CANNOT OPEN FILE error message

My college daughter just got herself a Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet. She has Office Suite installed.
When she downloads a .doc file and taps on it to open, she gets the error above (CANNOT OPEN FILE). If she opens OfficeSuite and select this file it opens without a problem. It does not happen with .pdf files for example.
Any idea what it might be and how to fix this?
Thanks.
I dont use that software but, my guess would be go into settings, manage apps, then look for office suite program. Click on clear defaults. Now when she clicks on a .doc it should ask her what app she would like to use to open it.

I tried that, it didn't help. It's not even getting to a point where she is asked to select an app to open the file, it just says CANNOT OPEN FILE and it says that about any .doc file.
Im at a loss, you could try google quick office. It is supposed to be quite good. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck.

Thanks. As I said, we don't even get to the option of selecting which app to use, it just point blank tells us "cannot open".
