I have recently got a My Book World Edition network drive and i am having some problems opening encrypted excel files on my iPad2 & iPhone4. I have got the WD 2go Apps (even paying for the Pro) but when i try to open a encrypted file, i just get a blank page. Non encrypted files are fine!
Let me apologise if this question has been answered before but i am new to the forum and i have attempted to search for this without success.
For info i am Vista 64 + Office 2010 Pro I have office
As far as I know this is a problem with the encryption. The iPad viewer does not support encrypted files. I’ll research a bit more to see if there’s some workaround besides using decrypted files.
What app are you using to open those files? You can try converting the files to Numbers but I don’t think you will be able to keep the encryption. I regularly use dropbox to open excel files but mines are not encrypted.
