Access Denied Bug Opening PDFs from the DFS in Reader X

Hi,
Do you have any timelines for when a bugfix will be released for the Access Denied problems when opening PDFs from a DFS share with Protected Mode enabled? We were hoping to make use of the new sandboxing technology within the corporate environment, as recent issues with security vulnerabilities (in Adobe Reader 9, the authplay.dll issues) would be mitigated by the technology. However, as the Protected Mode does not work when opening from the DFS there is no point in moving to Adobe Reader X from 9.4.1 at the moment.
It would be good to have a release date so that we can start taking advantage of the technology as soon as we are able to.

There's no dates, or indications of when this will be done. Thanks for your useful assistance though.

  • FYI: 1 possible solution and cause to Access Denied on opening PDF on network shares with Reader XI

    FYI
    Hi.
    Updated in May to another release of Reader XI.
    Got the problem stated in the titled of this post - with access denied for PDF on network shares.
    Reason:
    Long time error in Adobe Reader with shares and thumbnails causes me to use the thumbnail and preview fix done by a third party. Has worked for years - while Adobe has not seemed to care about fixing this problem ...
    That's the real reason ...having to use an almost out-dated fix now.
    However, if using the thumbnail and preview fix:
    Then its legacy interaction with Adobe Rader is probably the cause of this error - reinstall (reregister) the preview and thumbnail fix - and the problem will go away.
    ... and Adobe Reader XI is back up with protected mode working - on Network shares ... with the thumbnails there.
    Now if anybody is reading this from the Adobe staff ... please add the thumbnail and previews to Adobe Reader?
    May you forgot this did not work on shares ... like forgot "forever" ... and meanwhile users got a third party fix they reinstall everytime from the age of Adobe Reader bloatware creating the FoxIt Reader spinoff.
    Since then Reader has come a long way in tearms of realibility ... however, the missing thumbnail and preview on shares and x64 platform needs to be fixed.
    Then these "cannot" open PDF on Network shares reports may go away ...?

  • Opening pdfs from the web

    Hello,
    I am having a wierd issue with pdfs from the web.  I have adobe acrobat pro 9 (patched up to date) and I have enabled the 'do not open in browser' setting.  When I click a pdf link, it opens acrobat 9 as it should but the file name/file type is not .pdf.  I do not have reader installed and cannot figure it out.  The main issue is when I click the email link, it sends the link for the unknown file rather than the .pdf as I intended.
    The short term work around is to save as and reopen the newly saved .pdf.
    Any help would be much appreciated. 
    Thanks!

    Go to Adobe Acrobat Reader Preferences and, under Internet, it asks if you want to display PDFs in Acrobat Reader (or Acrobat Pro, etc.). If checked, uncheck the box. Then CTRL-click on a PDF file and select "Open With". If you hold down the Option key at this point, this Open With" will change to "Always Open With". Select Preview. That should do it. Watch out for Reader or some other Adobe programs that ask if you want to make Reader the default PDF viewer when you open them. Always answer "NO".

  • How can I launch or open a pdf from the Web using Reader X?

    Before I upgraded to Adobe Reader X, I could click on a file to download from the web and it would give me the option to Open, Save or Cancel. Now that I have upgraded, I only have the option to Save or Cancel. Often I would rather Open the document to see it before deciding to save it or not. Is there a Setting or Preference somewhere that will bring back the Open option? btw, I'm using Windows 7 as my OS.

    ImagineThat:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. There is a 3rd party application, pdf-RecoverPro, that will let you lock the file to printing, changing, etc. You set two passwords, one to let the user view it and one to unlock the restricted features. Just provide the first password and send the file. You can try the demo version. It just saves one page in demo mode.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Installed Pro 9 and Reader 9 now cannot open pdf from web, but can from an email?

    Installed Both Adobe Acrobat 9 professional and reader 9 yesterday on co worker machine. Went to open a pdf attachement in email no problem. Went to web to download and open a pdf and will not let her, giving co worker the error message need reader 8 or 9 to open this document!
    have unistalled 9 reader and reinstalled same problem.
    So then uninstalled reader 9 and can now open pdf from the web
    My machine has both on and no problems.
    Thank YOU for your help!!

    It may be that you will need to uninstall Reader and Repair Acrobat after the uninstall. Adobe does not recommend the installation of both products. Since you have already done the uninstall and things work fine with just Acrobat, leave things alone as that is the recommended installation.

  • Safari hijacked by Adobe Reader - cant open pdfs from Safari

    I would greatly appreciate any help cant seem to find this exact problem elsewhere.
    I have a Macpro (new tower) running  10.9.4
    A few days ago I received an email from a trusted friend which included a link. I followed the link which asked me to download Adobe Reader which i foolishly did. Since then when I try to open a PDF from Safari I get the following message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User Licence Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser"
    Please note I can still open PDFs from the Finder and other browser's (e.g. Opera) also allow me to download
    I went to the Adobe site and downloaded Reader but it wont let me complete the installation. I fear my Mac has been infected by a trojan etc and can't seem to find out how to get around this.
    So far I have tried
    1) went to /Library/Internet Plug-ins - but nothing there
    2) reinstall of Mavericks
    Any help appreciated. I suppose a clean reinstall would help but don't want to do that just yet

    Open a Finder Window.
    Click on the Go in the menu bar.
    Press on option on the keyboard, "Library" will appear. Click on that.
    In the new Finder Window that it opens up, or the one that you have opened already. It'll show that particular folder. In that folder is Internet Plug-ins.
    Check to see if Adobe is in there. If so, delete it and reboot.
    I honestly thought it was in the same folder that you tried, but I don't remember at the moment. So my instructions are just a shot in the dark.

  • Can't open PDFs from Outlook Access denied

    We are trying to open PDFs from Outlook in Reader XI.  Even after disabling protected mode, continue to receive the message "There was an error opening this document.  Access denied.".  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    A. Fix One PC
    Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader X
    Go to: Edit > Preferences...
    Click on "General" in the left pane.
    Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
    You will prompted with a dialog box to remind you to close the application for the change to go into effect. Click Yes.
    Click OK to save your change.
    Exit Adobe Reader
    B. Fix Several PCs in Your Organization
    Following the above steps aren't practical if you have Adobe Acrobat installed on 1,000+ computers in 30 regional offices! Push this registry setting using your standard software deployment software.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\Privileged]
    "bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000

  • Reader XI - Cannot open PDFs from Outlook:  Internal error occured.  Access is denied.

    I have a user that when they try to open a PDF from Outlook they get two errors. An internal error occured, and Access is denied.  I HAVE tried everyone's solution of unchecking 'Enabled Protected Mode' in Adobe > Edit > Preferences...but, this has NOT worked. The user is currently running Windows XP and has Outlook 2010.  The attachments DO open if you save them to computer first, or if Adobe Reader is already open.  Please help.  Thank you.

    "Internal Error Occurred" appears when .pdf is opened from Outlook 2010 email
    I am absolutely pulling out my hair over this one!!
    PC/Win 7 64bit/Adobe XI/Office 2010
    I have tried Uninstalling and re-installing
    I have tried using an adobe software removal tool
    I have tried modifying the security settings in reader
    I've tried running repair on MS Office
    If you open the .pdf from an email directly, it opens Reader with the error "Internal Error Occurred"
    If you drag and drop the .pdf onto the desktop, and then open it, it opens.
    If you open Adobe Reader FIRST, then open the .pdf from the email, it opens fine.
    ONLY when you open a .pdf from an email with Adobe Reader closed (so Outlook is asking AR to open first, and then present the .pdf) is it behaving this way.
    Hypothesis: Outlook 2010 does not like to open Adobe Reader.
    SO....tell me all of you brilliant geniuses? How do I solve this puzzle and become an end user's hero?

  • Access denied while opening any PDF the second time / Zugriff verweigert beim zweiten Öffnen eines beliebigen PDF

    Reader produces "Access denied" while opening any PDF the second time. A LogOut/LogIn or restart is necessary to open a PDF again successfully. User works with a PC (Win7). The file is located on the desktop in a Windows 2008/2012 AD, user profile on networkshare. The same procedure with a file located on any other networkshare or locally on harddisk works without error. Analysis with processmonitor indicates that the file seems to load and then is cancelled for some unknown reason. The problem is somehow growing, beginning with 1 PC and exists now also in our Citrix environment (2 users). Access rights seem to ok and the same on all tested shares (full Access or Change rights).
    Der Reader bringt den Fehler "Zugriff verweigert", wenn man das zweite mal ein PDF öffnen will. Dabei ist der Fehler völlig unabhängig davon, ob man das gleiche oder ein anderes PDF öffnen will. Um wieder erfolgreich ein PDF zu öffnen, ist ein Ab- und Anmelden bzw. ein Neustart des PCs (Win7) nötig. Umgebung ist eine Windows 2008/2012 AD, Profil liegt im Netz. Der Fehler tritt nur bei PDFs auf, die auf dem User-Desktop liegen. Sind die Dateien irgendwo anders im Netz oder lokal auf der Festplatte, kommt der Fehler nicht. Eine Analyse mit dem Prozessmonitor zeigt, dass das Laden des PDFs irgendwann gecancelt wird, warum auch immer. Das Problem scheint sich auch langsam auszuweiten. Es hat mit einem PC begonnen und tritt nun auch in unserer Citrix Umgebung bei bis jetzt 2 Usern auf. Die Berechtigungen scheinen überall ok und gleich zu sein (Volluzgriff oder Ändern).

    ls -l /var/run/lighttpd/
    And how are you spawning the php instances? I don't see that in the daemons array anywhere.
    EDIT: It looks like the info in that page is no longer using pre-spawned instances, but lighttpd adaptive-spawn. The documentation has been made inconsistent it looks like.
    You will note that with pre-spawned information, the config looks different[1].
    You need to do one or the other, not both (eg. choose adaptive-spawn, or pre-spawn..not both).

  • I'm getting an error message "There was an error when opening this document. Access denied" on some PDF's that I was able to open in past. Uninstalled XI and installed X but same problem. Any thoughts?

    I'm getting an error message "There was an error when opening this document. Access denied" on some PDF's that I was able to open in past. Uninstalled XI and installed X but same problem. How can I access these files?

    I have exactly the same problem. The interesting thing is that the file opens when I attach it to an email and open it out of the email. I already saw the advice you provided in  similar post from Aug last year and checked the security settings of the file and the folder. But according to that I have all rights.
    My OS is Windows 7 Enterprise.
