Can't open .pdf attachment to e-mail
After straightening out the conflict between Reader & Acrobat (deleted Reader per suggestion on this forum), I now have a new problem. When I double click a .pdf attachment to an e-mail (I use Thunderbird), I get the following message:
"C:\DOCUME~1\HP_ADM~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\ADOBE.pdf could not be opened because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
I went to Preferences of Acrobat 9 std but couldn't find anything that seemed to relate to a helper application.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Turns out I found a note from Mozilla when this was a problem with
reader that said to simply delete that preference for acrobat. Then,
when I click to open the .pdf file, Thunderbird asks me if I want to use
Acrobat 9.1 and has a box to click to enable this to occur every time.
It worked.
If anyone else encounters this, here's the website containing the
solution for both Firefox & Thunderbird.

Cannot open PDF attachment in webmail sent from Outlook, says I need to save first; how do I save the link?
Looks like another user asked similar question with over 600 views and no replies ... hmmm. When I click on the attachment, it says I must save it to my disk; with one button mouse just click once and save? I've tried dragging and saving the attachment to word doc but opened up with a page of garbled words/symbols,etc. Any ideas are welcome.

Clicking on a pdf attachment in AT&T/Yahoo Mail results in "a file was downloaded". Used to open the file in Firefox 25.0 and prior. Switching to IE I can click on the attachment and it opens. Seems it could be something in 25.0.1. I cleared my history (cache, cookies) but this did not fix the problem. I disabled the pdf viewed and that didn't help either.
i'm not sure as to what exactly is going on, but it looks like yahoo has changed something on their server that makes certain old url formats dysfunctional - at least quite a number of other users have reported that... so if you have a bookmark for yahoo mail, change its address to the generic https://mail.yahoo.com/, which should redirect you to the current & working url

I can't open the attachment to a mail. When I'm trying to open it in FileApp, I get the answer: "FileApp doesn't recognise
this file type.Would you like to try to open in.....
another App
as text file
cancel
When I open it it in another App I get the answer:"there are no application installed on your device that can open
this type of file.
When I open it as a text file, it's loading and loading.....forever?
What shall I do?
PS I'm 70 and not good at computersHello Mats in Sweden!
I'm from Austria, not so far away! The file that you've received seems to be a Windows Media File and you may need a special software for your iPad to be able to open it. I've found something HERE.
If you open this link on your iPad it should take you to the App Store, resp. open it. The price for this app is 1,59 €.

Can't open pdf attachment on Palm TX with Adobe For Palm download
I downloaded Adobe for Palm OS (v. 3.0) to open email pdf attachments, but am getting error message: Attachment (not supported in this version) winmail.dat
So can not open any pdf attachments.
Tried getting mail via VersaMail and via m.comcast.net - same problem.
Using Vista, Palm TX
Thanks
Post relates to: Palm TXAdobe for Palm is an ancient program that cannot read raw .pdf files. It only works with a desktop component that converts pdf files that the old adobe program can read on a Palm.
Look at the free "PalmPDF" at freewarepalm.com. It can read pdf files by itself.
(I'd also suggest you delete Adobe from your Palm as it's caused a lot of problems for many users)

TS1506 I can't open pdf attachements in my email from outlook on my iphone
How do I open pdf attachments in my email on my iphone
here is what is supposed to happen...
an e mail attachment is usually shown as a icon at the end of the e mail. If you touch it, and if it is a file type that the pad can handle in preview, it opens and you can read it. and example would be a word document.
If you want to do something besides read the attachment, you need an app. If you touch and hold the attachment you will ge a prompt called "open in", and any apps you have that can deal with that file type will ber lsited, you pick the one you want to use.
Sometimes there is no app on your machine to open a particular file type. You can go to the app store, and search for that file extension, and frequently find an app that will deal with it. Windows .wmv files are an example.
Lastly, there are some file types that the pad simply will not open, and there are no apps to be had either. Flash attaments, i believe the extension is swx, cannot work on the pad.
so - when you get an e mail with an attachment - what happens when you touch it? -
Can't open PDF email attachments from mail app. (iOS7, iPad2)
Since upgrading to iOS7 I cannot open PDF email attachments from the "Mail" app. The attachment appears as a "tap to download" icon, after downloading it appears as an image of the first page of the PDF. An extended press of the PDF image results in "save image" and "copy" options, but no "open in" option.
I have tried closing and re-opening mail, restarting the iPad, several different attachments. Still no "Open in" option.
Any help with this?I work in a support organization and we've seen variations of this issue develop on various iphones and ipads with ios7. Oddly, not everyone is experiencing this, just some people.
In my own case, I simply downloaded Acrobat Reader for free and can read the things fine.
We use an exchange activesync email server and when each email comes in it indicates at the very bottom that it has been downloaded as plain text and to click to download the entire message. I've tried clicking to download and not clicking and I can read the PDF either way.
In my own case I can view PDF files and/or also save them by pressing and holding the icon of the PDF in the email.
The other thing one of our end users noticed: if she emailed the PDF directly to her iPhone5 and iPad it would not be readable but if she forwarded it to her offsite Yahoo account and then forward to her corporate email it would open.
I think there's definetely something going on with the formatting of the PDF (was it created by a true Adobe PDF distiller or one of the many clones?), what email application attached it? (Outlook, Eudora, IOS Mail, etc) and how many PDF reading apps are on your IOS devices?
For instance I have the default PDF reader, iBooks, Kindle, Adobe Acrobat Reader, and there may be others that I don't even know has PDF capability. Only Apple probably has a good idea of how many apps utilize this.

Can't Open PDF in Windows Live Mail
I am having trouble opening a PDF file in Windows Live Mail that is sent to me. I can only open it if I save the file to desktop. I was able to open it just fine awhile ago. I don't know what I may have done. Can someone please help me.
Thanks
MarkI guess I should have explained it better. If someone sends me a PDF as an attachment, I can click on the PDF in Windows Live Mail but the PDF will not open. I tried uninstalling Adobe Reader and then re-installing but had no luck as well. If I right click the PDF and then click "save as" then I can open it after I save it to my desktop or whereever. Hope you or someone can help me.
Thanks

Error while opening PDF attachment sent via mail
Hi,
I am attaching PDF file to PO in me22n and sending the same file as attachment in the mail to the vendor using class CL_BCS.
The mail is sent to the vendor successfully and they are able to successfully open the PDF attachment. But in some cases the mail is successfully received but while opening the attachment it is giving the error as file is corrupted.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks and regards,
JayashreeHi,
I would like to know what font type, you are using in the forms.
Ideally it should be HELVETICA .
If you are using any other font in your style/form,try changing it to HELVETICA & Test.
Also Check the OTF data at the call of gen. FM,before converting it to PDF.
Regds,

Can´t open pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 after inst. Reader X
Hi!
Today I updated Reader from 9 to 10.1.2 - I did not face any problems with the installation.
But now I can not open any pdf attachment in Outlook 2010 (Reader opens and closes immediately) if Reader X is not running.
When the Reader is allready running I can open the files without problems.
When I save the file on my desctop I can also open it - also if reader is not allready running.
I un- and reinstalled the reader fiew times, also tried the repair tool - nothing helped.
I receive a lot of pdf Files - any help would be great.Did you try this? It worked for me.
http://www.darrenstraight.com/blog/2010/12/16/adobe-reader-x-there-was-an-error-opening-th is-document-access-denied/
Open up Adobe Reader X
On the Toolbar Menu go to Edit > Preferences
Go to the general tab under Categories.
Untick “Enable Protected Mode at Startup”
If asked if sure, click Yes and then Ok.
Now close Adobe Reader X and try opening the PDF again. -
Can't open pdf attachment without saving first
Whenever someone emails me with a pdf attachment I cannot just open the attachment. It makes me save the document first, locate the file I just saved in my hard drive, and then I can open it. I started having this problem earlier this week. Before, I could just click on the attachment and it would open. I have the latest first of Adobe. What can I do so I can simply click on an attachment and it opens?
What is your operating system & version?
What is your email client & version?
What is your Adobe Reader version?
What exactly means "cannot"? -
