File Reported as "Damaged" Opens on Other Computer

An acobat file, downloaded from a website, opens perfectly fine on computer A, but is reported as "damaged"/"not supported" on computer B.  This website, of a newsletter, has daily postings.  The same thing happens with every file posted.  They will open fine on computer A but not on B.  I have tried a reinstall on the problem computer, to no avail.  I am running XP, Firefox and McAfee Virus on both computers.  As far as I am concerned they have identical setups.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks.

Oops.  The versions.  A key point I left out.
I just downloaded a new version of Adobe Reader 9.0 on the problem computer.
I did notice that the computer that is able to open the files is running Reader 7.0.  But if able to be opened on an early version, shouldn't opening on a later version be no problem?
The files are identical.  They come from a website that publishes a daily newsletter.  Each file opens in 7.0 but not in 9.0.

  • File won't open on other computer

    Hi!
    As all of us ia mhaving a HARD time with fireworks on a mac.
    however i have avery recent problem, which prevents me from
    sharing my file:
    my complex woking file (30 pages) won't open on another
    computer or crashes on startup.
    it's an orginal cs3 / mac file and it won#t pen on another
    intel mac. yes i know this might also be a performance issue (
    since also my intelcore2 mac need 1-2 min to open the file ), but
    since the configuration of the two machines is very similiar there
    might t be a problem.
    does anybody of you have anythought on this?
    usually it helps to copy all data into a new file, but also
    this !annoying! workarounf does not help.
    what to do?
    thx
    frido

    Please post the link so we can look it over.

  • Edited video file name now cant open in other programs

    Opened a MPEG video file in HP MediaSmart video Main program and edited the file name. Now when I try to open the file it will not open in Windows Media player or my other video edit/programs.  I did not make a copy of the file or do I have a backup, it's the original.  How can I fix this?

    @Goonies_2015 ,
    Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forums.  What I expect you have done when doing the change to the file and saving you ended up removing the .avi or .mpg file extension.
    So what you can try is to go to the file where ever it is located.  Copy the file then paste it.  Then rename the file whateveryouwant.avi or .mpg.  If this does not work then you may have edited it and saved the blank formatted file with no extension.  If that is the case I am not sure if you can recover it.
    Here are some links you can check out.
    How to Change a File Extension in Windows How to Recover Deleted Videos  
    Now the two links may not be exactly what you need but may have the answer when it comes to recovering video files.
    Thank you again for posting and have a great day.

  • Can't get my external HD to open my other computer's backups

    I'm trying to get a few files off my old computer. I was able to access my computers backups before i backed up my MBP to the same external HD. I don't want to use migration assasinst. I tried option+clicking and ctrl+clicking on TM to access the backups, but the ones for my iMAC are greyed out. I really need those files and I can't simply 'redownload them'.
    Thanks

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Step 1
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Post the messages from the time of the last crash, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

  • PNG files are grainy when opened in Illustrator.

    Files that I create in Photoshop and save as PNG files are grainy and colored incorrectly when opened in Illustrator. The files are fine when opened in other programs. Please see the pictures below to illustrate my point. These are the same file, however, the first is the PNG file that I've saved in Photoshop and the second is how Illustrator renders the file.
    Original - Saved from Photoshop
    Rendered in Illustrator. Exported as PNG.

    It is PNG 24. It's super bizarre. I originally thought it was because the file began as a RAW file, but any file I export as a PNG gives me the same issue when opened in illustrator.

  • After saved to computer, Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

    After saved to computer, Adobe Reader could not open 'filename.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

    What is your operating system?  Reader version?
    Saved from where?  What is the file size of the saved document?

  • HT1657 I downloaded (and paid for), a movie and when I attempted to open it, the computer told me to trash it because the file was damaged. This support site is absolutely unhelpful and I feel as if I'm running through a maze... ridiculous.

    Hi all,
    I paid for a rental and couldn't find the download. When I did locate the file and tried to open it, a message appeared telling me to trash it because the file was damaged. Can't believe this. It's getting late, wanted to relax with a movie and have spent the last 20 minutes trying to troubleshoot.
    Ridiculous.

    Jodie84,
    I have just checked your account and found that you indeed have bought a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription but you have assigned the single seat to another user hence you ( If you are using your own Adobe ID ) are getting the trial error message.
    Two options : Either reassign the seat to your self or add an additional seat and invite your self in the same Team.

  • Error message" The file may be damaged or corrupted -1610153464/ also unable to open projects in the background 26:: 142

    Hello everyone,
    I hope someone can help me.
    I am using AE CC/Windows 7 on a Dell computer, 32 GB RAM, 64 bit op system, processors: Intel (R) Xeon (R) CPU x5670 @ 2.93 Ghz 2.93 Ghz (2 processors).
    So far I had worked on many projects with no problems and then a few weeks ago the project crashed non stop. The problem was overcome when I got rid of all MP3s and converted them to RAM. Again this was an issue I didn't have in the past and I don't recall changing anything.
    Now it seems it is impossible for me to export/render out a project into a Quick time file or even AVI. If its quick time I get this message: After Effects unable to render error  an output module failed. The file may be damaged or corrupted -1610153464 and if I am trying to export with AVI I get this message: AE unable to open projects in the background 26:: 142)
    This is happening with different projects.
    I read the forums and heard that the problem may be a Bug with quicktime and H.264? I never had a problem with it before but again when I try to export AVI I get this error message:
    AE unable to open projects in the background
    I have a feeling it is quick time related. I have uninstalled and reinstalled QT but still get the problem. It will open old QT files no problem. I tried to download a bug fix update as one post suggested but I think I have the latest which is why it didn't work. 
    This particular project has a couple of quick media H.264 files. Do I need to convert them? Are they the cause for all of this?
    I am sorry I really tried to look for answers in the forums before contacting you here but I cannot find a reason for all this mess, which again only appeared a few weeks ago with no problems for months...if someone can point out an area where I can start looking, I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

    update: I converted all the H.264 footage which were in the project to WMV. And I was able to test export with AVI and it turne dout fine (like 10 seconds). However I still got the Error message: "After Effects unable to render error an output module failed, a filme may be corrupted or damaged.  Error-1610153464 " when I tried to export H.264 QT..
    I don't know what to do now, how can a problem which did not exist suddenly come up. How can I export a QT file? with AVI it will be massive!
    Many thanks
    Amanda

  • Problem open logic pro 7 songs made on other computer

    i cant seem to load my iso that i have made on another logic - same spec logic etc..
    this comes up - Damaged Song or not a Logic Pro Song! Search for fragments?
    then when i click search, its aborts.
    Anyone know why this problem is occuring?

    thanks very much for helping me. the other computer is a new g5 desktop, with logic pro7 also installed on it.
    i have made a track on the desktop in our studio, it includes samples that we have cut up, and plenty of midi controlling our outboard keyboard set up.
    I just bought a new macbook the other day, installed logic. I then tried opening the logic file that i had made on the desktop. it comes up saying that the song is damaged etc. I then tried to put my autoload file that i have always used on logic, and it had the same problem, HOWEVER,for some reason this now works when i tried again.
    So i am a little confused as to why i cant open the new tune. Other tunes seem to be opening, but they are from a long time ago. I need to work out why recent songs arent opening.
    i will try re-saving the original song.. is there anything else that springs to mind that could be causing this?
    cheers,

  • I didn't safely eject my external hard-drive and now my files are not showing up on my other computer?

    I didn't safely eject my external hard-drive as my imac was in sleep mode and I thought it was shut-down. Now I have turned up to uni and plugged my hard-drive into the uni computers (apple) and the word document I was working on last night (before my computer went to sleep mode, and it may still have been open, I cant remember) is gone.....
    I have phoned home and got a family member to try and recover the file. They said they can see it when they open Word under recent documents, however its "ghost" and nothing happens when you click on it.
    My question is, when I go home and plug my hard-drive back into my imac, will I be able to recover this word file? or have I lost it forever?

    I only saved it to my external hard-drive and saved it at the completion of working on it. However left the document open, went to dinner, and this morning pulled the hard-drive out, whilst the computer was asleep not shut-down and now the file doesn't appear.
    I thought when I clicked save then it saved straight away, therefore anything i do after that point (ie a un safe ejection) shouldn't make a difference. Clearly, no matter if you saved the document, if you un-safely eject the hard-drive then the file is lost anyway?

  • Is there a program I can use to retrieve corrupted .MOV files, from a HD memory card where some files will open, and others wont?

    Hi,
    I have a Mac OS X version 10.6.8 with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory.
    I have recently shot some still and moving footage on my Cannon EOS 500 D (digital camera) using an AMICOE SD C10 8 GB high speed memory card.
    After uploading these photos and movies onto my Mac, I am only able to open about 2/3 of the files that appear on the screen.  In the case of the movie files, I can see a number of the file icons, however about 1/3 of them will not open (I get a message saying that Quicktime does not recognise this file - yet it is a .MOV file. Interestingly I can see a small thumbnail for each of these files that will not open, however I am unable to expand the thumbnail into the larger size) and there are a number of photos that simply do not appear as a file or thumbnail.
    Is there a program I can use to retrieve these corrupted .MOV and JPEG files from either my computer or the memory card?
    Thank you for your interest in this question.
    Cheers,
    Shaughno.
