When I try to access a file that someone posted, the file disappears.

When I try to access a file that someone from my church posts, the file momentarily appears, but then immediately vanishes.  Accordingly, I am unable to read or download that file.

    Hey GrumpyTX, let's jump right into this! 

     

    Where did you find this link, and how was it shared with you? Was it a shared link, by any chance? 

     

    If I were you, I'd try a different browser, in order to preview it and check if you get the same results there. 

     

    Keep me posted!
