Hello, hoping this is the right area to post this...

  I am trying to add a photo (.jpg) to an ArcSDE feature class as attachments in ArcMap. I Enabled Attachments in ArcCatalog. In ArcMap, I start editing, add a point, and attempt to add an attachment using the attachment manager. This is where it fails. I receive the message: "The file failed to load. The file can not be added as an attachment." My question is, why??? What have I missed? From what I can see, I have followed all steps possible... Is there something I am suppose to do after I enable attachments?

Thanks!
Kat

I had similar issue and it turned out to be permissions. The account I was using did not have UPDATE rights, error went away as soon as I granted UPDATE rights.
