Adobe DRM error when opening a digital book

Hi. I receive the following error when I attempt to open a digital version of a book that I purchased a few years ago:-
Borland_C___Builder__The_Co.pdf:
Adobe DRM Error
System:  7
State:  4
Class:  15
Code:  31
Message:  Error on response from server.
Scroll below or view error.log for more details.
Your Adobe software could not be activated.
HTTP error on Adobe DRM Activator request.
Adobe DRM Activator error.
Client Code:  31 - HTTP Code:  555
Fault location:  15
--- end ---
Can any one help me to resolve it please?
Marcus

What a truly awful policy.
So, here I am coming back to an ebook I purchased three years ago, only to find that it's *my* fault I cannot access the book I paid for, because I should have been studiously following the intricacies of your petty updates and server migrations, or else I simply lose my rights to access the book (access rights, by the way, that are apparently now controlled not by the author -- whom I know personally -- or the publisher, but by you clowns at Adobe!?!).
Really lame, adobe. Really lame.
I should have bought the hard copy, which I could have taken off the shelf whenever I wanted, years after purchase, without having to worry about whether or not I migrated my license to whatever server, etc etc.
Really appalled by this.

  • Access denied: Adobe PDF error when opening PDF in IE9

    Adobe Version: 11.0.3
    IE9, Windows 7
    Opening the PDF document from web browser opens a "Adobe PDF Document" dialog box with "Access Denied" error message.
    However, on clicking "OK" on the dialog box, the PDF document appears in the desired section.
    But, still trying to get rid of the access denied error message as this pops up each time a PDF is being opened.
    Please help asap.
    Thanks.

    Hello Adobe technical Team,
    I am struggling to fix the issue. Tried a lot of combinations to manipulate PDF preference, browser setting but failed to fix the issue. Can someone please look into the details and advise? Thanks in advance for any help.input.

    I already downloaded Adobe Digital Editions 1.5 beta 2, and went back to acrobat reader 6, activate from aractivate.adobe.com, but nothing seems to work. What can I do?

    System 7, code 31 is always a networking problem. Meaning something on your network is preventing the book information from getting to the rights-management server (or from the rights-management information getting sent back)
    You can check firewalls, security software, etc to see where the blockage might be, or work with your network admins if you have them. See 'Error "Adobe DRM Error" when you activate Digital Editions or access an eBook" at http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402747

    I get missing plug-in error when opening my online bill which is in PDF format. I am using a 2010 Macbook with the latest version of Safari and Adobe suite installed in my computer. Why do I get this error? What should I do?

    In relation to my previous inquiry regarding inability to view a pdf file using Safari...
    Is it possible that I can view other online bills from other website but not this particular bill from one specific website?

  • CF 8 CFPDF "Merged" document throws 131 Error when opened in Acrobat

    We are using CF 8 on Windows Server 2003 platform.
    Any CFPDF "Merged" documents are throwing 131 Errors when opened in Acrobat
    Tried re-saving the documents on local machine and still same problem. Tried opening in multiple versions of Acrobat, same problem.
    Individual documents created are opening without issue. It is Only when these documents are merged that this error occurs.
    We do not experience this behavior in our CF 10 environment.
    We are a Big, Slow moving enterprise here so not much chance of getting our CF 10 environments promoted to meaningful production use soon.
    Found virtually nothing in HelpX and nothing online of any value regarding this issue.
    Has anyone else experienced the issue noted in the title of this discussion?
    Has anyone a work around or solution?

    I am getting the same error even in Acrobat version 8.1.3.
    Additionally, I noticed that if we click on menu ‘Advanced->Sign&Certify->Preview Document’, then we get a notification as “This document is not PDF/SigQ compliant and may display inconsistently”. On clicking  ‘View report’ on that notification, the below dialog pops up. It has errors listed as:-
    Code 4000 : Unrecognized PDF content. The document contains PDF content or custom content not supported by the current version of Acrobat.
    Code 4002: PDF content contains erros.
    However, if we sign the PDF using default adobe signature functionality and reopen that PDF, the error does NOT come and the notification also says ‘This document is PDF/SigQ compliant’.
    Can anybody please suggest what could be missing in the custom sign that we apply? Is it because of any of the missing fonts or any other resources?
    Awaiting reply!
    Regards.

  • Win32 exception error when opening file from RH6 in RH7

    I received the following error when opening a help file
    (.xpj) that was developed in RoboHelp 6 in RoboHelp 7:
    An unhandled win32 exception error occurred in RoboHTML.exe
    [4692].
    This occurred after receiving the notice to upgrade the
    project since it was created in an older version. After selecting
    Upgrade, I received a runtime error message prompt. After clicking
    OK, I received the message above.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this issue so that I can open
    the project without any problems in RH 7?

    Thanks a lot for replying.

    I have Acrobat Reader 5.1 at home and 6 at work and both work fine with the LV 7.1.1 bookshelf and help file.
    Yep, I just uninstalled Adobe Reader 7.0 and installed version 6.0.1. The links now work perfectly, so evidently this is a problem with Adobe Reader 7.0. I'd still like to solve the problem, though, as I really like version 7.0. (Something has finally been done about the program's lengthy start-up time!)
    You can reach the PDF-Files also by using Help>>Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf. Does this link work for you?
    It works perfectly.
    javascript:AcrobatLink('../manuals/lvuser.pdf');
    This is a call to a java script function located in pdf.js.
    Other reasons:
    The Active-X control of Reader 7 has a bug.
    Your Internet security settings will not allow this operation. The Active-X will be loaded but will have no access to the file and yo get a wrong error message.
    Fair enough. If that is indeed the case, which Internet security setting should I try changing? I haven't done anything unusual to any of those settings. And where is pdf.js located? I tried searching for it but could not find it.
    Your advice is greatly apreciated.

  • Javascript error when opening CS3 on pc..?

    I cannot open ID on my CS3 package using my pc. The error appears twice in a box on screen stating
    'JavaScript Error'
    'Error Number 45'
    'Error string :Object is Invalid'
    'Line 387'
    also
    'JavaScript Error'
    'Error Number 45'
    'Error String; Object is Invalid'
    'Line 428'
    there was a problem initially due to program plug-ins reported missing so i tried going onto 'Help' and clicking on 'Configure Plug-Ins' from the drop down menu.
    Not sure what i did.. but now i cannot use ID as it shuts down after the javascript errors are reported.
    Anyone help?

    hi
    thanks for all the helpful info
    i tried to reinstall INDESIGN only... didnt work same problem.
    i tried by uninstalling INDESIGN and then reinstalling it only.... didnt work same problem.
    I guess im going to have to do a full reinstall.. not a problem, do i need to contact yourselves to get clearance for a reinstallation?
    I had a hard drive crash about 6 months ago and had to reinstall, had to phone Adobe and get an online clearance as id exceeded my sole installation for my CS3 hard copies.
    thanks again

    Subject: Javascript error when opening CS3 on pc..?
    I'd bet the original scenario was something like you tried to open a file and saw a message that you were missing plugins, or they were out of date, and that you should update or upgrade. That's the typical message you get when you try to open a file saved from a newer version of ID. Unfortunately it's quite misleading -- nothing you do to the plugins will help you in that case, and trying to use newer versions would be disastrous.
    You should be able to selectively reinstall just ID. If you have the DVD you can run the installer and do a "Repair" installation, and if that doesn't work, you should be able to uninstall ID, then reinstall without removing the whole suite. If that still doesn't work, bite the bullet, uninstall everything and run the clean script (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402767&sliceId=1), then reinstall. I'm not sure what happens with a downloaded installer, but I suspect it works the same. I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that to uninstall from a download you need to have it in the same location as was originally used for the installation.
