Adobe Pro X not recognizing .doc or .docx files for conversion to PDF (looking to batch convert Word-- PDF

I am using Adobe Pro X through my university and when I click on add files, it will not recognize that I have word files in my folders. My purpose is to batch convert many word files to PDF, however, if Adobe Pro X won't recognize allow the word files to appear, I don't think I can convert them. Help is appreciated!

Do you have Word installed?
Is it a compatible version of Word?
Does the Acrobat menu or ribbon appear in Word?

  • Adobe Pro uninstall not recognized by Creative Cloud.

    I uninstalled Adobe Pro from my MAC using the uninstaller in Applications/Utilities, but it still shows as 'up-to-date' in Creative Cloud.  I need Creative Cloud to rest so that I can install it again.

  • Why is Premiere Pro CS6 not recognizing my Photohop .PSD files?

    "Photoshop" is not even listed as a supported file in the File Type section.
    If I select to view all files and then import a PSD file, I recieve the following:  Error Message "File format not supported."
    This is completely bizarre.  

    If you look in Windows Explorer (if you are on a PC - I don't know where to look on a Mac), when you select a Photoshop file does it have the right Icon, or does it point to a different application?

  • Premier Pro CS4, not recognizing .mpg or .m2ts files

    Hello, I downloaded the 30 day trial of Premier Pro CS4.. So far it works great other than the following:
    Cannot recognize .mpg or .m2ts (avchd "high def") files... It recognizes only .wma files.  Is this because I have the "free" trial
    version? My currect Premiere Elements 7 reads all the above files with no trouble.

    OK, I good with that... but what's the point of trialing if you cannot manipuate videos ??  I'd hate to spend the $700+ without being comfortable with Premier Pro CS4.   Allright, I guess I'll have to make .wma files to test.
    Thanks for your feedback!

  • Adobe products are not recognized in my Internet Explorer 10 on my Win 7 64B professional

    Adobe products are not recognized with my Internet Explorer. I cannot open PDF documents on websites and I cannot play MSN games since Flash Player is not found. I have tried manage add-ons and enable status without success. Can anyone supply detailed information on how to fix this problem?

    Are you running IE10 in 64-bit mode?  The Adobe Reader plugin is 32-bit, and can only run on a 32-bit browser.
    Regarding Flash Player, do you have ActiveX Filtering enabled?  Disable it.

    WE know Disk Warrior is more reliable, hence more useful, and should be in any disk mechanics toolchest.
    For the record, I don't know anything of the kind. I have yet to see evidence that Disk Warrior is useful at all.
    What I do know is that you seem to take every opportunity you get to promote it in these forums. Do you work for Alsoft?
    Let me be a little more explicit. My opinion is that Disk Warrior is a waste of money if one has backups. If a journaled HFS directory is so badly corrupted that it can't be repaired by Disk Utility, then the volume should be reformatted and restored from backup, which has the same effect as running DW, but is probably faster and doesn't cost $99.

  • How to make a stationery out of .doc or .docx file?

    Hi,
    I stumbled upon a website that has some nice stationery, in .doc format. and since there few free pre made stationery available for Mail.app, at least to my knowledge, because I think I almost downloaded every free stationery available out there that could be easily found via Google. I decided to download some of these .doc stationeries and try to put them in Mail.app, but first I had to convert them into .html format. so here is what I've already tried and did not work:
    first I tried opening them in TextEdit, which supports .doc out of the box, only to find out that the pictures in the documents are gone to thin air. I tried saving it and then opening it with something else like Open Office, but the pictures were permanently gone.
    then I tried opening the original documents directly in Open Office, you guessed right If you said they will look screwed, and they were, and tried to save them as html, they were screwed even more.
    so I did a bit of research and found out that I could use Google Docs in order to convert the documents, I uploaded them into my Google docs and then tried to open them with it, but found it that Google docs can't handle the pictures (specially background pictures) either. as a result I did more searching to find a document converter and here is what I found:
    I found a few online service to convert these documents:
    http://www.freefileconvert.com/ was pretty good to convert the files into an .odt format. at first I thought yes I got the solution, now I can simply convert it to html using Open Office, but unfortunately, when I saved the document in html format and checked it in Safari to see how does it look, as If I would have done the same in MS Office with the original format, it looked pretty much screwed .
    So I continued to look and I found a few other online services one of them asked me to pay a fee, I skipped to the other one which was http://docx-converter.com/. unfortunately the website wasn't functioning properly I think, at least for me (maybe someone out there has succeeded using it, I don't know.) and it didn't send me anything.
    Finally I found http://www.zamzar.com/ that could convert .doc or .docx documents into html, or at least that is what it claims to do so, I tried it, and after I received the file via email, I found out it only contains a bmp image of the document's background. So much for the online conversion services!
    But I decided I would give it a last shot using MS Office online, so I opened up my old Windows Live mail and went into my Skydrive, I uploaded the documents and tried saving it as html, but there were no save as html (after all an online copy of MS Office should have some limitations, otherwise few people will be willing to buy a Desktop version) but this didn't made me disappointed, since I already knew, that Neither Office Word can make a clear conversion, so I tried something different, while I was in Safari looking at the document in online MS office, I saved the page as Web Archives, then I opened the file with TextEdit, and after deleting useless links and pictures, I finally managed to get a clear document with everything that supposed to be in it. At this point I only need to know how to make use of this document to create a stationery with this raw file which is in Web Archive format. any ideas?
    null

    I'm a total idiot! How did I overlook http://www.zamzar.com/ functions? I think I might have mistakenly chosen convert to BMP instead of html. I tried it and the result was very good.
    OK I finally found a good solution for this problem, so everyone out there that has the same problem, here is what I did:
    1. OK if you have some .doc and .docx file formats and you want to convert them into something like .html or .odt, without having to reedit the code or getting a screwed document, use http://www.freefileconvert.com/ in order to convert them into .odt so they would look as they do in MS office just go to the website and upload your documents then choose .odt, then click convert, after a few moments you will get a link to download your .odt files. you can use and play around with your document in Open Office, I have tested it and it's really good.
    2. Or if you want to convert them into .html with a clean code, and all the elements in it, simply go to http://www.zamzar.com/ and then ulpoad your documents, choose .html and enter your email address, you will have your .html files zipped and sent right in your inbox, then you could use Kompozer like me, or any other html editor, to make a template out of it. I tried it and the result was nice, now I have a bunch of nice html files that I can use to make templates and email stationery.

  • Lost the paste and move text function in Pages '09 also suddenly can't open .doc or .docx files

    A few days ago I lost the ability to open .doc or .docx files in Pages '09 version 4.3.
    Today I find that I can not paste or move text within Pages.
    I updated everything yesterday and still no luck.
    Help....

    A Google search using the terms <document "could not be opened" iwork"> turns up two possible solutions:
    Pages '09 refuses to create/open existing doc after Lion upgrade
    Re: The document “navidad.numbers” could not be opened.
    The first discussion's solution is to delete/reinstall/update iWork. The second is to edit the underlying code within the document and remove any Unicode characters.
    I recommend you go with solution no. 1. Use Yvan Koenig's script to delete iWork completely (see below), then reinstall and update iWork before attempting to open a Word document. Then let us know how you went.
    Go to https://public.me.com/koenigyvan
    Choose For iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip
    Download Uninstall iWork '09.zip, decompress it, open it in AppleScript Editor and click the Run button

  • (Problem) Grey empty Word window shows up while opening .doc or .docx files with virtual Internet Explorer 9

    Hi,
    First i'll explain what i did.
    I've Thinapped Office 2010 Professional Plus SP2 with an Internet Explorer entry point. (Thinapp version 4.7.3)
    Made some changes in the registry so .doc and .docx files will open in the virtual IE browser.
    Here are my changes made to the registry:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.Document.8]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.RTF.8]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.Document.12]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Word.DocumentMacroEnabled.12]
    "BrowserFlags"=dword:80000024
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\AttachmentExecute\{0002DF01-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}]
    "Word.Document.12"=hex(0):
    "Word.Document.8"=hex(0):
    Now i have this problem:
    When opening a .doc or .docx file in the browser a ' download bar' appears.
    My document opens in the browser as expected but, at the same time an empty grey Word window appears at the background.
    The grey window shows not all the time when opening a .docx or .doc file , this is whats so strange about it.
    Sometimes when i open the .doc or .docx file it opens without the grey empty word window. It seems like it's happening randomly.
    I also tested it out with .xlsx files (Excel) but this go's all well.
    Before i forget, this all runs on a Windows 7 Enterprise environment.
    Does anyone know what causes my problem, or can anyone help me?
    Kind regards,
    Martijn
