Can’t upload file – I have a file named 5.1.2011.pdf and I keep getting an error message saying the file is not of approved type. It’s a pdf and I’ve uploaded lot’s of pdf’s in this one workgroup.

Cause:

In this particular instance the reason the file will not upload/attach when other .pdf files have been successfully attached is due to the numerous “.” in the file name.  There can only be one “.” in any file name and that one “.” should precede the file type. 

Resolution:

Replace all the periods in your file name except for the one preceding “pdf” with something like an “_” or a “-“.
