Why can't I open simple pdf forms from IRS since Maverick upgrade?

Since my ugrade to Maverick I am having several frustrating challenges primarily with Numbers and today tried to open a downloaded pdf irs form and I coninue to get message that Adobe cannot open because it does not support this form or it is corrupted??? Is there something I need to do with Adobe now? I have 10.1.8 Adobe and 7.0.1 Safari. I don't seem to be behind in software updates.

scootbak,
are you able to open your downloaded IRS PDF form in Preview? (It can be found in your Applications folder.) If it is also unable to open it, then perhaps the download of the form was interrupted before it completed.
At the moment, 11.0.06 is the latest version of Adobe Reader which supports Mavericks.

OK. You mean that it has fillable form fields. Those will not open in the mail app or in iBooks.
Download Adobe Reader in the App Store. It is free. Then go back to the mail app, tap on the PDF file to get the Open In window to pop up. When the Open In window pops up, select Adobe Reader. The PDF will open in Adobe Reader and be saved in there. You should be able to fill out the fields in the Adobe Reader app and then you can email it from there if needed.

Why can't I open a PDF in Word? I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011

Why can't I open a PDF document in Word. I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011 installed because I have to email PDF and word documents to my clients. Please help.
I currently have been viewing them in Preview. Is that the only way?

Word is a text processor, not a PDF viewer. You can embed a PDF document in a Word document, but that's pretty much it. Besides Preview there are numerous third-party applications that can also view PDFs such as Adobe Reader.

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go > Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
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 quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
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.

I am running Safari Version 5.1.5 (6534.55.3) on my iMac 10,1. After my last Adobe update, my pdf files are nothing but a black window. Have tried reverting to an earlier version of Adobe, but still getting a black window. What next steps should I take? Thanks.

Beats me. Can you tell us any more about it? Some of the things you might want to share include:
- your version of Adobe Reader or other PDF software?
- any message you get (exactly, in full)?
- your system (e.g. Windows 7, Mac OS Lion)?
- if you're running another app (e.g. Outlook, Chrome) what is it?

Why can't Bridge open my raw files from my new Canon Power Shot 120-S camera? I'm using PS-5 and had no problems with other Canon cameras. I downloaded Adobe Camera Raw 8 but this has not resolved the problem.

1. you need cr 8.3+ for the Canon PowerShot S120
2. ps cs5 can only update to cr 6.7
free solution: use the dng converter: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5694
integrated solution: upgrade to ps cc. here are the options (but especially note the photographer plan for 9.99/mo) - http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop/buying-guide.html

Why can't I submit a PDF form online?

I have created a PDF form from a current design. I have then created a submit button with the action to "mailto:[email protected]"
I have then uploaded this onto a website, and when the user clicks it, fills out the form, and tries to press the "Submit" button, nothing happens. What am I missing?
Any details would help. I called Adobe but they said they couldn't help me. I am using Acrobat X Pro.

In order to submit the PDF, the default PDF viewer plugin for each browser must support it.
To enable Adobe Reader as the default PDF viewer see the following web page:
Acrobat Help | Display PDF in browser | Acrobat, Reader XI
Note: Not all PDF viewers support PDF submissions.

When I try to open a PDF form from a site, my screen goes black.

When I try to open a fillable PDF form from any web site my screen goes black and nothing further happens. I can use IE with success, but would prefer Firefox.

You're welcome.
Could you please click the "''Solved It''" button next to the post which solved the problem for you? This will help others searching for a solution to the same question.
Thanks.

Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
3. If it's a browser
(a) what is the browser
(b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

After up grading to Adobe Reader XI why can't I open any PDF files?

I am running windows vista and had been using Adobe Reader 8 - when I upgraded, can not open any PDF files. When I attempt to open a PDF file, I receive the following messages:
Update available
Please take a few seconds to update Adobe AIR and get the very latest features. Acrobat.com cannot continue until you update Adobe AIR.
after attemptng to down load the "update" I receive the following message.
Sorry, an error has occurred
This application requires an update to Adobe AIR but downloading that update was not successful.
I have uninttalled all of my Adobe freeware & reinstalled statring with "adobe AIR" then "adobe Reader" and then attempted to opne a PDF file only to see the same message
Update available

Agein after attemptng to down load the "update" I receive the following message.

Thank you Pat,
I have already been there done that. I first Un-installed all of my adobe freeware (reader, flash player, air. etc) then started reinstalling. First I reinstalled reader (latest version Reader X), same error messages. added AIR (latest version not listed - Last updated April 1st, 2012 -
maybe that should tell me something), same error messages. I un-installed these two and reinstalled AdobeFlash Player,Adobe Shockwave Player,&Adobe Media Player, verifying that each worked after each reinstall of the next program everything was OK until I put Reader back on (NOTE: I dug all the way back to version 8 & still had the problem). for some unknown reason I finally right clicked on a PDF file on my desk top & was greeted with a the drop menu & he option of "open with" for fun I clicked on the "open with" & found that I had two options the first was a white Icon with the Stylized A and labeled Acrobat.com the second was the normal red Icon we all know & live
when I reset the default to the normal red Icon everything began to work just as I have always had adobe reader work. Now I have no clue how or when I picked up the "Acrobat.com" program even worse it does not show up under programs on the control panel. When I have a few moments this evening, I will run a search for "Acrobat.com" & hopefully be able to remove it from my computer.
Bottom line I don't know how I got the program which seems to have caused the breakdown of adobe reader but by resetting the default program to open PDF files it is now working as it should
Thanks for the suggestion.
Sincerely,
Richard L. Cornick
