    why cant i save a picture when it comes in email.

    I'm using FireFox and it has no option to save a picture to my photos. The other browser that came on phone don't have the option either I have Android 2.3.3 on my inspire. Can anyone help.There is a add on called save file to but I can't seem to download it tells me it can't. My BBC sucked but I could save pics to folders and copy n paste I can seem to figure these out. Thanks

    I don't know about firefox or your other browser, but both the built-in browser on my phone and dolphin are able to save a picture to a file. Just long press the picture itself and select "save image."

    Yea, I thought it was easy too, I do it a lot and the photo winds up in your pic app.

    I would recommend downloading dolphin. It's a very good browser, and it's free. But I don't think you need that to save a picture. What you need to do is called a long press. Touch the picture and hold your finger on it until a list of options pop up. It takes a second or two.

    Do any of you guy's know that Chrome is in the market for Android as of earlier this week? It's killer and you will see the bookmarks from your PC Chrome browser and much more. If you use Chrome on your PC and noticed "mobile bookmarks" a few weeks ago, this is why.

    Hopefully you have found the solution. In some websites pictures are copyright protected. You can’t right click in those sites when you go through a PC. In those sites there is no option for downloading or saving a file unless you pay for them. You can’t also copy the text in the webpage. If you visit those sites don’t curse your browser or your device as the webpage is designed to protect the content.
