Acrobat Reader 9 cannot open pdf attachement to email

My os is xp. After installing Reader 9, I cannot open pdf attahement to incoming email. The error message is "the file does not have a program associated with it", even though I have already associated pdf with Reader 9 in Folder Option. If I save the pdf attachement to a different folder I am able to open it.
Maybe I need to rever to Reader 8. If someone cannot solve the error message, maybe can tell me where I can get Reader 8 as it is not in the Adobe free download.

I have no problem opening PDF attachments that arrive in my Outlook 2003 Inbox; they open fine with Adobe Reader 9. It may be an issue with your email client.
But if you think that Adobe Reader 8 will fix it, you can download it from http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/8.x/8.1.3/enu/AdbeRdr813_en_US.exe - make sure that you uninstall Reader 9 first (and Acrobat.com & Adobe AIR).

  • There was an error opening document.  Access denied. Cant open pdf attached to emails

    I just upgraded to Acrobat Reader x and can't open files attached to emails in Outlook 2010.   If I save the file, I can open it.   I assume it has something to do with protected view or such but can't find where to change settings.   I can open .doc and .xlsx files attached to emails so it seems to be only an issue with .pdf files attached to emails in Outlook.   Suggestions?

    To make things simple for you, here are two ways for you fix the problem:
    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
    Microsoft Outlook and other email clients
    I hear this will also fix the "There was an error opening this document. Access denied." error that is occurring with any email client, including Microsoft Outlook Express; Microsoft Outlook 2010, 2007, 2003; Eudora; Mozilla Thunderbird.

  • Cannot open pdf attachment on Curve 9360

    Hi,
    I cannot open some pdf attachments on my Curve 9360.
    Some pdfs are fine but our fax to email service pdfs will not open - just get a qustion mark in the file icon and when trying to open I get 'This attachment type cannot be viewed on your device'.
    This is really frustrating as it means when I am away from the office and we get a fax (which comes through as a pdf attachement by email) I cannot see what it is !
    The same pdf files open fine on my laptop (in outlook) and a friend has a blackberry bold and the same pdf opens fine on his bold !
    I am on OS7.1 (Bundle 2494) on my Curve 9360 but I have had the problem from back since OS6.
    Any suggestions guys ?  Could something be missing/corrupted on my Blackberry casuing this problem ?

    Do you really expect that someone will be able to help you with the amount of information you provide...?

  • Adobe acrobat X cannot open PDF files in Firefox, though IE can. What gives?

    when I download a page that's a PDF file from the Web, Firefox cannot open it, although Internet Explorer can. I just uninstalled Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0 because I had Adobe Reader X installed.

    When I enter about:preferences#applications <Enter> in the address bar, then for PDF it shows:
    pdf File (application/x-download) ... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
    pdf File (application/x-pdf) .... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
    Portable Document Format (PDF) ... Save File'''
    I would like all PDF's to open in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    Right now none of the PDF's open at all, so opening in Firefox or any other viewer would be preferred over not showing up at all.

  • Acrobat reader hangs opening pdf created with autocad

    Hi all,
    when I try to open a pdf file created with autocad, Acrobat Reader hangs and I can't do anything else then kill the process. Now I use Acrobat Reader 9.5.5. I've insatlled also Acrobat Reader XI, but the problem persists. It seems it is very slow to process the file. If file has few graphics after some minutes I can see it and zoom in, but if file is has a lot of graphics, acrobat hangs. Any suggestions?

    Hi Robert,
    I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused & will try my best to get this issue resolved.
    I will recommend you to upgrade your Adobe reader to Adobe Acrobat Reader DC on your Samsung Note 3 mobile phone and then try to view the pdf files. You can download it for free from the Google app. store or you can refer to this link Acrobat Reader DC Learn & Support.
    Let me know if you still experience the same issue.
    Regards,
    Aadesh

  • Preview and Acrobat Reader not opening pdf documents

    I downloaded and installed Adobe Acrobat Reader on my new iMac and since then old, new and every other pdf document won't open with a message stating it was damaged etc. Previous good pdf won't open and I fear it is down to installing Acrobat reader. Any ideas?
    Just want to see pdf documents

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
              Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
              Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 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.
