I suddenly can not open pdf files. I have had Adobe Reader Xl and just ran into this problem
I have had adobe reader xl for some time and suddenly can not open a pdf file. I received an email yesterday with a pdf attachment which I can not open. What could be my problem?
Hi Pat, My operating system is Windows 7, Home Premium Service Pack 1. My email client (email Provider is Cox Communications - Cox.net).
Can not in my post means I tried to open a pdf attachment to a email. I received nothing happens. I do not get a blank screen or any messages. Nothing Nothing happens at all. I can click several times and get no response.
I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print. This may be printing from my hard drive - I am not sure. I think I could go through this procedure every time I want to open a atachment but it seems a long way around.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have thought about removing Adobe and reinstalling. Maybe there is a corruption to my Adobe file.
Jim

I can not open PDF files in safari
I can not open PDF files in safari. How can I fix this problem?
Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -

Thanks in advanceHi Eidda,
This may because the attachment is a winmail.dat file. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information. Note: the article is written for OS X mail, but does also apply to this situation.

Even I have the latest version of Adober reader I still can not open pdf file on safari.
Save the file locally, open the Reader application and try to open it from there. If it still doesn't work provide the full details of your OS, Reader version and the exact error message you're getting when you try to open the file.

Adobe reader will not open pdf files I have saved as, or, export as pdf to my desktop (latest Maverick). The same file does open when I am on the source website (i.e. user manuals etc.). Why?
iMac G4, Mac OS X (10.4.9)
Make sure you have the latest Adobe Reader installed for your OS.

Did you try using Preview. If you control click on the PDF on your desktop you can use the "open with" option. -

Why does my Acrobat IX not open PDF files created with my Adobe CreatePDF application?
My Acrobat IX will not open PDF files that I create with my Adobe CreatePDF application
Thanks for answering ... Long answer sorry ... recently upgraded from XP to Windows 7. With XP I could create PDFs with/for any document I created ... I think the XP App was Acrobate Complete as well as I could print directly to a PDF file. In any case, I was always able to creat PDFs. Since upgrading to Windows 7, I lost my ability to create PDF files by conversion or by printing directly to PDF format. Therefore, I purchased the Adobe CreatePDF application from Adobe for about $100. However all Adobe CreatePDF files have a different screen icon and my Acrobate XI supplied with my new Windows 7 intsall does nor recognize the Adobe CreatePDF created files. I am guessing but I suspect the Adobe CreatePDF app is creating Postscript print files and not Windows compatible print files. I would like to tell Adobe about this Bug or failure, but it seems I am unable to contact Adobe directly and talk/chat with a human.

I am running Windows XP sp3 and IE 8. When I try and open PDF files from a webpage I get a find button, save button, or cancel button. The PDF file will open if I save it to the desktop first but there is now way I can open the PDF from the webpage. And this is very annoying to the user. I have tried checking and unchecking the Display PDF in Browser option but this has not helped anything. Does anyone have any idea what might be happening or what I should try?
Thanksno solution yet....adobe does not play well with redmond....ie microsoft...
((sidebar:
as adobe in silicone valley near apple....adobe started with WYSIWYG when they were
all PARC (division of xerox which closed down parc)...steven jobs bought the gui for apple and those that did not want to work for
jobs started adobe...and here we are w/ little/no support for adobe reader....which won the war with the pagis reader (xerox), now defunct...))
work around
open adobe reader and turn off "display pdf in browser" by unchecking the box...
steps
open adobe reader
edit
preferences
categories = internet
will be top line on right side....
OK and close...
now when you do a pdf,..the file will download to a temp folder and open a seperate window for the reader...
caveat:
store this info somewhere...after figuring out what to do i saved an adobe.txt file to aid this old memory of mine...
why
because sometimes you will have to turn it back on....
for example i had one bank where i have to turn it off to properly view/download the statements....
and another bank where i have to turn it back on to properly download the statements (this bank utilizes an aspx file to access/display the pdf and will not open it in a seperate window....) so it all depends on how the pages are coded....and you thought it was all to some standard...shame on you...ha ha
here's hoping this helps...
and wishing/hoping that the good folks at adobe (they have to be good, they didn't go to work for steve...nasty man...) will come up with a solution that will auto update...one can only hope...the ultimate optimist....good luck...and pls excuse any typos.... -
Can not open pdf file in Outlook 2010 - error opening document
when I click on the PDF file in the email (Outlook 2010), Adobe opens but it pops a window "There was an error opening this document. Access denied". If I save the document as a file, aka to the desktop, I can open it then.
Also also I click on the ok button in adobe, it posted a Runtime error! application has requested the RunTime to terminate it in an unusal way.
has anyone seen this issue. Desktop is using Windows XP, 4 gig ram, Adobe X verision 10.0.1Did you try this? It worked for me.

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. -
