Unable to open PDF files after update failed

I have not be able to open any of my many PDF files after last update. The update failed - error message "Error 1327.Invalid Drive:F\". Drive F is where I plug in my flash drive, there is nothing in drive F. I am working on my Ed.D and have 100's of PDF files pertaining to my research. I need to be able to open these files. I use a lot of these every day. I can't unstall the program -- get the same error message, can't repair it. Nothing works. Can anyone tell me what to do. I need a answer fast.

Some people in other posts have suggested to insert a USB drive into F drive.

Unable to open .pdf files after installation of 9.1.3

Hiya. I'm using XP SP3 w/Firefox 3.5.3 and IE 8.
When I try to open a .pdf file from Firefox (and I assume IE, which I never touch with a 10 foot pole), Adobe Reader opens, but then a blank dialog box (with a graphic of a ? in a bubble) pops up and all I can do is click the "OK" button and it closes Reader completely.
I've restarted Firefox, rebooted my computer, no Adobe products were running when I did the installation, and no errors occured during the installation.
I can open .pdf files from my HDD just fine, only when I try to open them from a browser window does the problem occur.
Help?

That's all it does.
Like I said, I can open .pdf files that I've saved to my HDD, but opening them from the web just does this.

Cannot open PDF file after update to Acrobat Reader 11.0.1 / 10.1.5

I receive faxes from a service in the form of PDF files. Up until today, I have been able to open them with no problem using Acrobat Reader 10.1.4 and lower.
Today, I updated Acrobat Reader to 10.1.5, and it's suddenly unable to open any of those files. I tried uninstalling 10.1.5 and installing 11.0.1, and the same problem exists.
I also tried a computer with 11.0.0 that had not yet updated, and it works fine.
Apparently, it's something about this latest update.
The PDF files open in other viewers like Foxit, Sumatra, and Chrome with no problem.
Here is the error:
The offending file can be gotten from here:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/24145333/Cisco_fax.pdf
Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
/Mike

Apparently I was incorrect on the Cisco box, we are using something different now. We use an Extended application server attached to a Meta Call feature server. This is a known issue for them.
"We have discovered an issue that means that the format of fax PDFs generated on most versions of Metaswitch EAS is incompatible with the latest Adobe Reader (11.0.01). This means that when your end users upgrade their Adobe Reader to 11.0.01, they will no longer be able to view faxes received from EAS in PDF format."
The same is with version 10.1.5. I uninstalled 10.1.5 and reinstalled 10.1.4 and the problem went away. No updates for us for now

Cannot open pdf file after updating to 10.4.11

I recently updated my operating system from 10.4 to 10.4.11.
after updating, I now cannot open any pdf files. I had/have adobe 7 before the update. I thought maybe there was a problem with the program after the update so I downloaded adobe 9- the newest.
I still am not able to open any pdf files.
any ideas??
thanks!
if this is in the wrong category, please let me know.

More than you asked for but good stuff. Permissions is buried in there somewhere.

Unable to open raw file after update to Raw 5.2

I am using Photo shop CS4 on a Intel Mac. I have down loaded the Raw 5.2 update, but Photo shop does not recognize the raw file. I have a Canon EOS 50D.

How and where did you install the ACR-plug-in? Did you decompress it first? Did you replace the old plug-in you found at that precise same location? What do you see as far as Camera Raw in Photoshop > About Plug-in?

Unable to open PDF files in messages since iOS 8.3 update

i updated my iPhone 6 to the iOS 8.3 update and unable to open PDF files with in the messages app ... I was able to do this prior to the update. Was the functionality taken away (still able to open jpg and ping files)?

I visited a "genius" in the Apple Store, Leicester, this morning. After some playing around he seems to have sorted it. Apparently - now they tell me! - you don't need Adobe Reader on Macs as the Mac has its own pdf reader built-in. Safari 5.1 is now clashing with Reader and the best approach is to remove Reader - and the relevent preference files. I took one of my MBPs into the store and am just checking it out to see if everything is now ok. I'm now planning to make the changes on my other machine and will report back. (The genius said that my best approach was to bring in the second MBP but I'm not very convenient to Leicester so I'm going to give it whirl myself.)
Wish me luck.
But why did we load Reader in the first place? Are we that unusual in the Mac community? Surely, others must have done the same and are having the same problem with Safari 5.1???

Since last update, unable to open PDF files from either banking site. The other (IE) works fine but I hate IE. I deleted newer versions and went back to older releases. No help, same thing. Checked settings in options. That is ok. What's up?

Unable to open PDF files from my banking statements.

I think almost every dev is on arch-general, so that is the place to contact the group in general. Specific points can probably be emailed to the dev involved, if one is identifiable and if the bug tracker is not a better place (bug reports to my email get ignored).
I think the whole problem here is that there is really no dev in charge of that package. So your emails were probably seen then skipped over by all devs thinking not my problem... (I know that is true for me). Then Andrea noticed an "orphan" package that needed updated and went ahead with it without connecting it to your previous emails, which is unfortunate.
Now our maintainer backend is fixed, hopefully we can get all the orphan packages adopted out, or at least know if we need to bring on new people to maintain them. That way, there should always be someone who information about specific packages should be sent to.

Unable to open pdf files on my IMac I have downloaded

Unable to open PDF Files on my IMac I have installed the latest Adobe Reader still no joy when I try to open any PDF File from a site I just get an empty black
page.

Is it only ones you have downloaded? What about for example the ones that came with your iMac - you didn't give a model but mine has a folder "User Guides and Information" that has a number of pdfs. Spotlight should find it for you.

Unable to open PDF files or Adobe Reader

I am unable to opern adobe reader or download a ner version of adobe reader.

Apparently the original software download was corrupt. I tried to
"change" it through the add and delete software area of Windows, and re-installed
the software. That seemed to work. Debating on whether to upgrade to one
of their other products. I could certainly use fillable forms, signature,
and modifiable documents.
Thank you for responding.

My bank statements are PDF read only. I cannot read them now, even though I have had no problem for the last year. My bank says it is an Adobe problem. Error message "Unable to open PDF file"

I tried uploading the newest Adobe reader and it did not help. Any ideas?

After upgrading acrobat 6.0 pro to acrobat 6.0.1 Unable to open pdf file in IE

I have down loaded acrobat 6.0.1 pro upgrade patch from adobe site.
After upgrading pdf files are not opening in IE from our application.
On top of 6.0.1 i have upgraded to 6.0.2->6.0.3->6.0.4
On opening pdf files from IE it gives error "Document is damaged and it cannot be repaired"
Thanks,
Bhagya

You should update all of the levels and retry. It may be a bug in 6.0.1. You have 5 more updates to go. That may not resolve the issue, in which case come back and indicate the problem. However, with what you are saying about Mozilla, it sounds like you need to update IE (I am not sure what you mean by 6 & 7, unless you are talking about different machines). Sometimes you have to do a fix on Acrobat after OFFICE is updated as I recall.
I am only making suggestions about how to approach the problem. I have no clue what the problem is an can only suggest the steps I might take to resolve the issue. I forgot whether the plugin for IE is from Adobe or MS.
