  • "Unable to Open" PDF attachment using BlackBerry PlayBook when message is received from Exchange 03

    Hello,
    Recently I have found that some users are having an issue with opening PDF attachments on the BlackBerry PlayBook using their Exchange 2003 accounts.
    I have isolated the issued to only users on Exchange 2003 using activesync.
    To resolve/workaround you can select and hold the attachment until you have the option to "Open" or "Save As". Select "Save As" and rename the attachment to the same name but include .pdf at the end of the file name. This allow the attachment to open in Adobe and show the PDF document in the email message correctly.
    Messages where being recieved as .null attachments with same file name but no extension.
    Hope this helps anyone.

  • I am unable to open pdf attachments in my emails?

    Can you please advise how i can solve this?

    Hi tillysingh,
    Are you saying that you can't even open an email message that has a PDF attachment? Or, are you unable to open PDF files in attachments? What happens when you try? Do you get an error message?

  • Unable to open PDFs in received e-mail (Outlook)?

    Unable to open PDFs received in Outlook (Office for Mac 2011).  Adobe XI message displayed says "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."  Same PDFs attached to same mail messages open fine on iPad or iPhone. What could be the problem?

    ivone dos santos,
    Do you see a message like this when you open one of your PDF documents?
    Your PDF document is a special type of form called a "dynamic XFA form".  The message is displayed when a dynamic content is not supported by a PDF viewer.
    As far as I know, no PDF viewers for iOS and Android mobile devices support dynamic XFA forms.  Here are the examples of the iOS apps that do not support dynamic XFA forms.
    Adobe Reader for iOS
    Mail
    Safari
    iBooks
    The PDF preview feature in Dropbox and other apps
    The message is trying to tell you to use the latest desktop version of Adobe Reader, not the mobile version of Adobe Reader.  I agree that the sentence, "You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader...", is somewhat misleading.  The message is baked into the dynamic XFA form that was authored by Adobe LiveCycle (desktop app) without regard for non-desktop apps (i.e. mobile apps).  Upgrading to the latest version of Adobe Reader for iOS would not help in this case.
    Currently, the only option to view and fill out dynamic XFA forms is to use the desktop version of Adobe Reader.
    Sorry for the confusion.

  • I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

    I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem. Uninstalled it. Still have the problem with Firefox.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then?  That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

  • Unable to open PDF in Web Browser and delay for printing

    In my LAN, on several PCs running with Windows 7 (32 and 64 bits), I observe two problems with "Acrobat Reader XI":
    - Delays / unable to open pdf files in the web browser (Internet Explorer).
    - Delays in printing: for example it takes over 8 minutes to print a pdf file: 400kB for two pages (on different printers / models).
    Here's the list of actions that I've allready tried to issue those problems:
    For the Web Browser problem :
    - Repair the "Acrobat Reader XI" installation.
    - Uninstalling and Installing Acrobat Reader.
    - In the web browser, disabling and activating the add-on (Adobe PDF Reader).
    - Uninstall "Acrobat Reader XI" and install "Acrobat Reader X"
    Temporary issue: downgrade to "Acrobat Reader 9", which solves the problem with the web browser.
    For the printing delay:
    - Repair the "Acrobat Reader XI" installation
    - Change the printers drivers (install Universal Drivers PCL)
    - Check the box: "Print As Image" before printing
    Any Idea ?

    You can get that error if there is still an old Adobe Reader plugin in the plugins folder in the Firefox program folder.

    Hi Pat
    Microsoft upgraded Hotmail e-mail accounts to Outlook.com
    The Print Screen key has no function.....when the 2 boxes mentioned above appear on the monitor (which I have detailed) they require action or I cannot proceed to another screen or function.
    Maybe my problem should also be sent to Microsoft Customer Service...your thoughts.
    I note there has been 106 views hard to believe that no one else has had this problem.
    Appreciate your time

  • Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

    Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Open Outlook 2013
    2. Open email message with PDF attachment
    3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
    4. Close Adobe Reader
    Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
    Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
    Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
    Has anyone else experience this problem?  If so, have you found a work-around?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
    I had this problem happening in Outlook.
    If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
    The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
    The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
    Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
    Close down Outlook and re-start it.
    Problem solved! Just dont know how  or why.
    Proposed as answer byalfreelandTuesday, January 08, 2013 4:52 PM
    It worked for me with Win 7 and OL 2003. Why? Who cares ... It is working.

  • Unable to open PDF's

    Using Reader, I am unable to open PDF's that have been downloaded from the web.  I get he following error message:
    This is a new problem.  I can open other PDF's.  I am using Reader 11.0.06 on a MacBook Pro with Mountain Lion.

    Quit Safari.
    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins.
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
    Empty the trash.
    Relaunch Safari and redownload the PDF.
    Unfortunatelky you can't fix the "damaged" one, so just trash it too.

  • Unable to open PDF directly if user use Acrobat 8

    Unable to open PDF directly if user use Acrobat 8.
    We are facing some problems in our production site. When user click PDF icon, "FileDownload" windows pops up, but it only has "Save" or "Cancel" button, so user needs to download and save the file to open.
    I tested the following scenario using
    We have facing problem with this visions IE 6.0 – Acrobat 8.0 and IE7.0 – Acrobat 8.0.
    Mozilla 2.0 – acrobat 8.0 working fine. The pdf contents are embedding fine the browser window
    Does anyone have any experience with something of this nature?

    I must have missed the announcement - when did these forums change from Java language to IE/Adobe/Mozilla forums?

    My boss is currently operating on the Adobe Reader 11 and often needs to use Internet Explorer 11 for certain programs.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Reader is unable to open PDFs from Internet Explorer and often comes up with a message telling us that the file is either damaged, no longer exists or that there is a problem with the syntax.  She does not have this problem with Google Chrome.  We have tried several ideas regarding the security settings but nothing seems to correct the problem.  Could someone shed some light on how to fix this error?
