[johnq86]

how come verytime i try to save a movie file in my gmail account i get an oops gmail cannot save at the moment.also when i try to save exe files it say that gmail wont allow me.how come?

[tralalala]

The movie files are probably too big for the GMail server to hold..

Try using a program called "GMail Drive" (google for it), which gives you a sort of extra hard drive, which is virtual, and when you log into it you are actually logging into your GMail account.

About .exe files - GMail do not allow executables for security reasons.. however, you can RAR them up using WinRAR and it should work :)

gmail allows max 10mb attachments
if the extension is not allowed simply rename it eg .exe > .bla

if the vid files are really big, you can rar them to be under 10mb (split) then upload them. or you can use yousendit.com .
