This article was previously published under Q187608 SYMPTOMS
When you use Pocket Internet Explorer on a Handheld PC (H/PC) to view a
Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) image, Pocket Internet Explorer
may not properly display the image, or you may receive a "Bad MIME format"
error message.
CAUSE
This behavior can occur if the JPEG image file does not contain a JPEG
File Interchange Format (JFIF) file header.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, use an image editing program that supports the JPEG
format to open and then save the JPEG image. This procedure adds the JFIF
file header to the JPEG image.
MORE INFORMATION
Some digital cameras do not include the JFIF file header when they record
a JPEG image. Pocket Internet Explorer uses this file header to identify a
JPEG image.
