Unable to open PDF portfolio (Error Msg: "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in...)

I am having a problem opening an important PDF portfolio document using Adobe Reader (version 11.0.02) for Mac (Mountain Lion version 10.8.3).
When I attempt to open the file, I come up with the error message: "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later", and I am unable to view the document. This is becoming very frustrating, as I am attempting to open the document with the new version of Adobe Reader (which I have downloaded multiple times).
If anyone has a solution for this problem that would be very helpful!
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. No I'm not using iPad, I have a MacBookPro. I just wasn't sure which forum was best to post this question in.
I have flash but Adobe still won't open my documents.
Anyway, thanks for your help.

  • Some elements of downloaded PDF not showing (Error: "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio...")

    I'm on a PC attempting to view a downloaded PDF. It's an application so the document is generated by our online system and aggregates info from the applicant as well as documents they uploaded. I can see most of the final product but the document uploaded by the applicant gives the error "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." I downloaded the latest Reader (DC) and when I searched to download the latest Flash Player I got a message that it should be up-to-date since I use Chrome. I've seen other folks having this problem; any suggestions?? Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for your response! The document appears the same either way. I downloaded the file and have opened it with both Adobe Acrobat and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

  • For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Read

    Hi,
    For the first time I am aware of a user has received a PDF that cannot be opened in Preview.
    The pdf opens to a splash screen showing, "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." There is a large button showing " Get Adobe Reader 9"
    It is a 15Mb document but we cannot get beyond the splash screen in Preview so I have had to install Reader 9 for the user.
    Turns out the document is a very basic slideshow. It seems this is a new (to me) format of PDF which forces users to install Reader.
    Is there any way these image portfolios can be opened within Preview so I don't have to install Adobe Reader bloatware again?
    Thanks,
    b .

    I doubt it, but perhaps others have better info...
    You can ask Apple to expand Preview's capabilities here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html
    Personally I have never found Preview to be a complete substitute for Adobe Reader and always have both on my machine to deal with pdfs, which have a large number of possible variations in terms of version, features, and encodings.

  • Unable to open or view: "For the best experience..." problem

    My system is Mac OS X (Browsers: Safari, Chrome, Firefox).
    I have been trying to browse Adobe's Interactive PDF Showcase for examples of professional output. Instead of the PDF opening up for viewing, I get, "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." or the same error with "...Acrobat X or Adobe Reader X, or later."  But my current reader version is Adobe Reader XI (11.0.09), which certainly qualifies as "later". What's going on?
    Thanks for any help.

    Have you tried accessing planning directly via 8300 port:
    http://<serverName>:8300/HyperionPlanning ? and see if the application is listed thr.
    Are you using admin Id to log in? if not then try using that one. If you dont have the access to that application you wont be able to see it via workspace.

  • Hide the error msg for the mandatory fields

    hi
    how can i hide the error msg for the mandatory fields when they are not entered?? when i don't put a value in a mandatory field and commit the form, an error msg occurs teelling to enter the value for that mandatory field, but the error msg is not friendly at all and i want to hide it.

    User,
    I'll assume you are talking about ADF Faces + ADF Business Components application, since you don't mention it.
    If you are talking about the pop-up Javascript dialog box that pops up, you can do the following:
    1). Set required=false on those fields in your JSP.
    2). Set showrequired=true on those same fields so that there is a visual indication that the fields are required
    3). Ensure the attribute to which the fields are bound have "mandatory" set to true in the BC's
    Now, when you commit the form, you will not see the Javascript pop-up, but you will see a message in the af:messages component.
    Best,
    john

  • Code signing cert error using Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer

    Steps to fix this error on code signing adobe air using .p12 cert from Digicert - Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer
    a. Open Firefox and browse to https://www.digicert.com/digicert-root-certificates.htm
    b. On the middle of the page, download -
    DigiCert Assured ID Code Signing CA-1
    Valid until: 10/Feb/2026
    Serial #: 07:F4:73:6F:AF:EF:40:8A:1F:66:40:F2:65:D1:0A:C1
    Thumbprint: B170A10819BEA936905D719E643399783E1F4567
    Download
    c. Install the cert in Firefox
    d. Once done, export again the code signing cert from digicert, through (click Firefox -> Preferences -> View Certificates -> HIghlight the digicert code signing cert -> click Backup)
    e. Done, the newly exported file should now have the valid certificate chain and that should fix the error "Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer"
    Even though this is from Digicert, this should also work for other Certificate Authority providers assuming you download your provider's root cert for code signing.

  • Error creating AIR file: Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer.

    Hi, My boss got a certificate from Thawte, and I'm getting this error message when building my AIR app.

    To manage your code signing certificate, please see
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/articles/signing_air_applications_print.html
    The error you are seeing is typically caused by exporting a cert without the trust chain.   On Windows, in IE, you can manage your keystore by going to
    Internet Options > Content > Certificates
    When you export the certificate needed for signing your app, be sure to check “Include all certificates in the certificate path, if possible”.

    Ok, Below is what worked for me somewhat. 
    Okay ... try downloading and saving a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe to your PC from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Now download a trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/download.php
    Open the iTunesSetup.exe with WinRAR, and try to run the standalone install of Apple Application Support from the AppleApplicationSupport.msi you find in there.
    It works now BUT there are still problems.  It is not allowing or recognizing my Cd/DVD player and i CANT burn.  Looking still for this fix.

    - Try restoring the iPod, first from backup and then try to factory settings/new iPod to rule out a software problem.
    - Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and broken or cracked plastic.
    - Could you have damaged something when you took the iPod apart and replaced the Home button?

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you get Error “Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed
    Simple solution is to change the trust the trust level to FULL: <trust   level="[Full]"    originUrl="URL" />
    In addition, you can modify the wss_mediumtrust.config and wss_minimaltrust.config file under the path “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\CONFIG”.

    Hi Otto,
    We have had the form working and in most instances the form can be updated multiple times without issue.  However, occassionally a form is created OK but the next time it is launched it is blank (the data is visible when the PDF is downloaded to the desktop)
    Do you think this issue could be to do with the form layout/XML...I changed the form template 2 days ago as I suspected this issue could be realted to incorrect field bindings but we have had the error on a form created after the change was made.
    Many Thanks,
    Kevin

  • Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer

    Updating an AIR application after a few years and needed a new signing certificate which I purchased from Comodo.  Imported it successfully into Keychain Access and exported it as a pfx file.  When I identified this certificate to Flash Builder it went all the way through the build process and then came up with the error "Unable to build a valid certificate chain for the signer".
    I can see there was a discussion on this matter in October 2011 but this did not seem to answer my question as that guy was trying to use an Apple Dev Centre key rather than paying for one like I did.
    TIA
    David

    In Keychain Access, command-click your Class 2/3 certificate, the CA's intermediate certificate, and the CA's root certificate before hitting export.
