PKINFO Files not opening in ArcMap 10.1

JaredAllen2 — Tue, 01 Oct 2013 16:17:41 GMT

I have been editing several feature polygons in the cloud of ArcGIS Online and wish to open the polygons in ArcMap 10.1 Desktop to save off. However, I have been unsuccessful in getting 10.1 to open with the polygons stored online. I have tried signing into my ArcGIS online account through the ArcMAp 10.1 Desktop and adding the map package, the online data transfer starts but then get "Could not Open Specified File" Error message. Likewise, if I go through ArcGIS online and click the open in ArcGIS 10 Desktop option, the same Error occurs. Is this a known issue or is there a work around? Thanks in Advance.

Jared,

do you have a free or organizational account?

It is a free account. I had success once before in April 2013 on opening the online WebMap in the Desktop but have not been able to do it over the past couple days.

Here is a Link: http://www.arcgis.com/explorer/?open=0dfd30591b9046a38b76d21949269289

It is a publicly shared experimental map.

Also, it appears that I can't open any public Online WebMap to the 10.1 Desktop, not sure if that sheds any light in a certain direction...
