  • Android running Adobe Reader can't view PDF

    My Android running Adobe Reader can't view Adobe PDF attachments that someone has emailed me through Exchange Server.
    I can, however, read the same PDF attachments if I receive said PDFs in my Gmail account.
    Please advise.
    Thanks,

    Im having the same problem, most pdf attachments work fine but I have a supplier who I can only view a blank page as the data does not display. Any ideas on how to correct this problem?

  • Adobe Reader can`t print like on screen

    2012Y. Years and years. Reader can not print like on screen. Even with the option - print as a picture. Only version 7.0 can.
    [Edited by host]

    With no information as to your version of Reader, OS, and an example of what prints wrong you are just venting. You are not asking for help.

  • Data typed into this form will not be saved.  Adobe Reader can only save a blank copy of this form.

    This message is new.  I have never had this issue before on my system.  3 days ago I created a PDF using LiveCycle Designer ES2 at my office - exactly like I have done for the past 2 years - and now I get this message when I try to open the PDF on my home system.  I have always been able to work with these files until today.  Yesterday I installed Office 365 and now I apparently have Reader XI on my system.  Now every form I was able to open in the past will not allow data to save.  What's the deal?

    * This PDF form restricts some operations
    This is all odd as this form is designed explicity with digital signatures, and has always worked; hundreds of people have used this form extensively since late 2012, and I have tested it hundreds of times - it has always worked, never had this issue.  Unfortunately every PC in my home has Reader XI installed as of today (no Standard or Pro versions) and I will have to hunt for PCs that have only Reader (no Pro or Standard) at work. 

  • Running Safari 6.0.3  When trying to print files using Adobe Reader 11.0.02, print preview screen is all black.  If files are attached to an email, receiver can't open it.  It does work OK in Firefox 19.0.2  Any ideas?

    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.

  • TS3274 Cannot 'flip' screen to view horizontally. Can only view vertical format.

    Cannot 'flip' iPad screen to view horizontally. Can only view vertically. Can anyone help, please?

    Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can only view Mail in full-screen mode

    After installing Yosemite, I can only view the main Mail window in Full Screen mode, unless I check "Classic View" in Preferences. Classic view does not help much, because it does not show the preview, which is essential to me. If I exit fullscreen mode, the minimized window appears for a split-second and then disappears down the left bottom corner of the screen and you cannot find it anywhere. The only way to see anything again is to go to Mail - View - Full Screen. Any help is much appreciated.

    Yes, I get the mail quit unexpectedly notification, together with a problem report, which is 808 lines but the pertinent part seems to be a CALayer position:

  • I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Turning it on then off doesn't help.

    I don't know what's wrong with my 3GS. It only shows the black screen with white apple. Home button and turning the phone off then on doesn't seem to do anything.

    Thanks Lucas,
    I've tried doing that with no results. Same screen keeps showing. Maybe it'd be more helpful if I told you a bit more info.  My phone was randomly playing music, and the voice control would also suddenly start without me touching the phone.  Then I let the battery die and started to recharge when on the screen it indicated to plug into my computer/iTunes, I tried to restore but was getting an error message (can't remember what it said now). Battery died and now my current issue of the black screen with white apple.  I'd love to be able to restore my phone but now its not showing as a device on my iTunes. HELP! Any other suggestions?

  • Skype Video Calling only showing a black screen

    Hi,
    When I make a viseo call, my computer only shows a black screen. The other person can see me just fine, but my video show just a blank screen. It's definitely a problem on my computer as it has happened with a couple of different people. 
    Both screens that should be showing video (the one that shows them, and the one that shows me) are showing black.
    I've had a look around but haven't been able to find any solutions. 
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Most likely the issue is with your display adapter.
    Please,  run the DirectX diagnostics tool.
    Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
    Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

  • The video app on my iPad now only shows a black screen. Used to work fine then crashed in the middle of a short video.

    The video app on my iPad now only shows a black screen. Used to work fine then crashed in the middle of a short video.  When I open the app the screen is just blank. As it is a default app I can't delete and reinstall. Anybody else experience this?

    Try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app via the taskbar : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
