  • Adober Reader suddenly won't open any PDF files (Mac)

    I had an old version, I downloaded the latest one, upgraded to the newest, even tried taking that one out and downloading an older version. It doesn't matter which version I seem to have, it won't open any pdf files from the web.
    I use a Mac, and Safari. It used to always load PDF files fine, one random place said I had to update it so I did and since then, lately it'd crash and close all Safari windows when loading a PDF or trying to copy something from a PDF. The smart Mac message I have says it could be related to an Adobe Plug in. However, now it won't even load PDF files at all, it always goes to a white page. Nothing happens.
    What do I do?? I can't even save the PDF's as individual files and view then in Preview as an alternative option. It's a link online and normally would work. What happened??
    HELP!
    I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
    I've always used Safari, it's Version 5.0.5 (5533.21.1 if that means anything).
    Acrobat Reader, currently an old version 9.4.0 download. BUT, I had also the 10.0.1 version which also doesn't work. When I had that 10.0.1 version and checked for updates, there was an update (.3 I think?) and I did that and that also doesn't work!
    Why did it suddenly stop working?
    What can I do to fix it ASAP?
    Only with 9.4.0 version I can go to Help and "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" - I click that and the only box I can select is "Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin - View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari"  - I click continue and it tells me there's "No missing components detected. Repairs are not needed." The only option is to click "OK".
    With any newer version of Adobe Reader, under Help there is no option to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation". So... I can't even try that with a new version.
    I am at a loss for solutions. Hope someone here can help! Thanks!

    There are several things you can do. My first step would be to repair permissions. If that doesn't work log on as a different user. If all works properly then you have a corrupt preference file (most likely) or a corrupt user font installed in your user Library (less likely). If that doesn't work download Applejack. Have it repair the disk, remove all system caches and user caches. Then have it check all system and user preference files. Remove any preference files that are corrupt. Reboot and see if your system is working properly.

    Im having problems with my safari Web browser to opening/viewing pdf files. I installed the 8.1.2 version But then when I click to open any PDF it says that Adobe PDF Viewer cannot find a compatible Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader to view this PDF. Please select one.
    i can see the adobe reader but can not select it .

    did you find a solution to this? my safari history is full of
    explicit sites that i have not visited. i see a lot of info on how to remove it, but none on how to figure out how they got there.

  • Reader 10.1.1 won't open internet PDF files

    I downloaded and installed the free Adobe Acrobat Reader 10.1.1  I am unable to open any PDF files online.  When I click on a PDF file link I get this message:
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (103:103)
    It is not open and I only use it when I have to open a file that is online.  I deleted and reinstalled and still have the same problem.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    My system:
    Dell Dimension desktop computer
    Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 3
    DSL internet connection

    Have the same problem and, while not a total solution, offer a work-around that might help you temporarily.
    And, yes, I'm running XP SP3 as well, so.....
    1.) Find the folder where the Reader X lives (on my system - /Windows/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 10.0/Reader).
    2.) Locate AcroRd32 - the file with the Adobe icon.
    3.) Right click and go to Properties.
    4.) Set Campatibility to *Windows2000*
    Reply "OK" to everything and try opening your file(s) again......
    Now, you'll still get the Error message initially, and intermittantly, but the PDF window won't close; you can read the document and saving the file still works.
    Again, it's not a fix, kinda cludgy, but it got me back on track even tho the message popping up is an annoyance.
    Maybe Adobe will fix it as I've seen several folks here with similar experiences.

    I recently downloaded acrobat reader dc. After download was complete, I could not open PDF files. Error read "Adobe acrobat reader DC could not open this file because its either not a supported file or the file has been damaged". Any suggestions?

    HI davidd92392148,
    Is this error occurring for all PDF files that you try to open? There is an issue where all file icons can change to the PDF icon after installation, so is it possible that the files you're trying to open have been affected by this issue (and aren't actually PDF files)? Please see Application, file icons change to Acrobat/Reader icon.
    If that document isn't the key, then please tell us more about these files. Where are they stored? Did they open in previous versions of Reader?
    Best,
    Sara

  • Adobe Reader XI is not working. I have used the cleanup tool and reinstalled it. I try to open a .pdf file in the program the window will open and load all the tabs but I am never able to actually interact with them.

    I am unable to use adobe reader xi. I have tried to use the clean up tool and re install the reader. That doesn't seem to help. I go to open the pdf file in the reader and the window will load but I am not able to do anything past that point. Almost as if the program freezes once loaded I never get a not responding error until I open the task manager on the computer.

    Can you open Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • Published Project for MAC (.app) and will not open external PDF files

    I have two captivate (7.x) projects that I published as Win .exe apps, and they work fine.  Published the same two projects as MAC (.app) and when I run the app on the iMac, and click a click box to open an external PDF, nothing happens. The PDFs are located in the "root" folder with the .app file.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the feedback. I was able to open some PDF files on Acrobat 5 that I recently scanned at a Fed Ex office with no issue whatsoever. I could extract pages, delete pages, etc, the software Acrobat 5 worked fine.
    What I wonder is there a way I can make a change to a PDF file that will then allow me to open it in Acrobat 5? I have a gut feeling there is an adjustment that I can make in Adobe Reader after opening it that will then make the file accessible in Acrobat 5. I am playing with it but no luck thus far.

  • How do I open a PDF file with Adobe Reader if it is in iBooks

    I have a number of PDF files in my iBooks library.  I just downloaded Adobe Reader for the iPad.  I can't see how I can open those PDF files.  The only thing I seem to be able to do with them is to open them from iBooks directly.  Doing that does not provide me with the features that Adobe Reader would provide (such as searching for particular text, etc.).

    Use iTunes to save the PDF FROM iBooks, and to add them to Adobe Reader.
    Connect your iPad to your computer. Bring up iTunes on your computer.
    To save a PDF FROM iBooks, click on "Books" in the Library section on the left. Select the PDF you want to save and right-click and choose Show in Finder (Show in Explorer in Windows). Go up one level in your computer hierarchy and you'll see all the "Books" (PDFs and eBooks) in iBooks.  You can leave them here if you want to view the PDFs in iBooks in the future, or drag them to the Desktop.
    To move the PDF TO Adobe Reader:
    Return to iTunes. Click on the iPad on the left in Devices. Click on the Apps tab. Scroll down the the File Sharing section as shown below. Click on Adobe Reader. Click the Add button and select the PDFs you identified in the previous step. They'll be added to Adobe Reader

  • Repeated Error Message with Adobe Reader after opening up PDF files

    After experiencing this problem, not being that computer savvy I figured I'd remove the existing Adobe Reader from my computer and download a new version in the hopes of eliminating the problem. When I do so, I get message "The patch package could not be opened. verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer Patch Package."

    Ankit,
    Here are my responses as best as I can address them:
    1. Adobe 10.0.1
    2. I believe it is Windows XP
    3. I was unable to remove the existing Adobe version because of the "patch
    package could not be opened......" I believe i may have inadvertently
    downloaded this patch via www.secunia.ocom "Personal Software Inspector"
    program (Untitled (1)).. Using the older version alone when opening up PDF
    documents resulting in their closing and my getting an error message
    ("Untitled and Untitled (2))..
    4. I was able to successfully download Adobe 10.1.0. However, it won't allow
    me to download required updates.
    As a result of this mess, I have the 2 versions of Adobe on my computer,
    which is allowing me to open up PDF files on my computere.
    Again, I'm not terribly computer savvy. I'm simply trying to find a way to
    remove the old version and work with the new version.
    Hope this helps, as I'm stumped. Thanx for your assistance.

  • Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file within a browser that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Hi Steve,
    Sorry, I cannot post a URL to the file because it is for intenal use only.
    I noticed that the pdf file can be opened outside of IE browser if I disable the Adobe Reader add-on (active-X) in IE browser. If I enable the Reader add-on, the Reader cannot complete the file download. The progress bar goes in a half way, and stays there.
    Just FYI, the pdf file was created by Distiller 7. Do you think it is the issue of Reader add-on? Thanks.
