Accessing attachments in ArcMap after data has been synchronized.

Is there a way to access attachments in ArcMap after collecting and synchronizing data? I've tried opening the Feature Service in ArcGIS Desktop (as a .pitem file), but it seems as though all related data is inaccessible this way. I'd like to access the table of attachments if possible.

Hi Jacqueline,

In ArcMap, sign-in to ArcGIS.com (File > Sign In). In the catalog window, browse to My Hosted Services. You will see the hosted services from you ArcGIS.com organization there. You can then add this to ArcMap. If you want to make a local copy, right-click on the layer > Edit Features > Create a Local Copy for Editing.
