Hello, I'm currently using iPad to access this website and I found that when I decided to download a file in Microsoft word format, my iPad is unable to download, the respond I get is (safari failed to download file)

Can anyone help me with this problem please? Also, I tried downloading Microsoft Word from download.com, my safari browser is unable to download it. Some say I need to install Windows OS to use Microsoft Word but is there a way to do it without installing Window OS? I looked at the new to iPad guide but with no solutions available.[cool.gif

Thanks beforehand,

Install Dropbox, register a free account and kau-tim... no headaches. Data will sync between desktop and iPad.

I say bad things of Apple because they screw up big time and u live in denial. Apple cheat u and u say ok... WTF? Might as well let people cheat u on a daily basis and u still be happy and sing "Don't Worry, Be Happy" repeatedly. U are not the only Apple user here u know... I have many Apple products too... even my Macintosh SE 30 is still alive and kicking running on System 6! However, I want to be different and embrace new technology not suck up to SJ's 'magical' curse.

Stop spamming? That answer is for another question.

Anyway, go out and buy Pages from the App Store.
