Adober reader shows corrupted bookmarks of pdf files

after upgrading to Mavericks if I open a pdf file with Adobe Reader it will be opened but the bookmarks are somehow corrupted:
they are listed with a grey area besides it and with a big space to the next entry (see image).
How can this be fixed?
In previous Mac OS X version this wasn't a problem, but with Mavericks? .. seems like apple has changed something - and no one knows about it
Example with Acrobat Reader:
with Preview now the bookmarks are displayed (new in 10.9?) but otherwise scrolling through a pdf isn't as comfortable as with Adobe Reader:

As a follow to the above, the problem was related to a file transfer.  The PDFs in question were being transfered from a Unix platform to a Windows Server.  The transfer was defaulting to ASCII or Text and not binary.  Apparently this was never an issue with older versions of Adobe Reader.  Once the transfer was switched to binary, Reader X was able to view the files with no missing pages.  Something was being stripped from the file that Reader X just didn't like.

  • Adobe Reader could not open a pdf file - either not supported file type or file damaged

    On March 5th, I started getting the Adobe Reader error message "Adobe Reader could not open a pdf file because it is either not supported file type or the file has been damaged.
    I get this when I try to open the pdf file as an attachment in Outlook 2013 from my G-Mail account.  If I save the attachment and then try to open the pdf document, I get the same error4.
    I get this error message with every pdf file that now comes to me in Outlook.
    If I log on to my G-Mail I am able to open the pdf document.  If I also save the attachment to my computer, I do not get the error message when I open the pdf file. This would suggest the file is okay
    This would lead me to believe the problem maybe with Outlook.

  • Problems in Adobe Reader when I open a pdf file

    I have problems in Adobe Reader when I open a pdf file, the menu bar appears blank without options and when I pass the mouse over the bar she disappears. I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader and to no avail. Could anyone help in this case.

    That is the old version that causes the problem; you need to update to the latest version (15.0.2.361).

  • Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Why Adobe Reader XI cannot open a pdf file within a browser that can be opened with Reader 9?

    Hi Steve,
    Sorry, I cannot post a URL to the file because it is for intenal use only.
    I noticed that the pdf file can be opened outside of IE browser if I disable the Adobe Reader add-on (active-X) in IE browser. If I enable the Reader add-on, the Reader cannot complete the file download. The progress bar goes in a half way, and stays there.
    Just FYI, the pdf file was created by Distiller 7. Do you think it is the issue of Reader add-on? Thanks.

  • Adobe Reader will not email my .pdf files.  Message: "Email has not been set up on this device."

    Adobe Reader will not email my .pdf files.  Message: "Email has not been set up on this device."  I have 4 email accounts that have been set up.  When trying to email from Adobe, the email screen does come up, but does not allow me to enter any recipients in the field, and when I try, the email page's fields simply goes blank and disappears, taking me back to the document I am trying to send.  After trying repeatedly, I get the message about needing to set up my email.  My mother and I have also noticed that when  we try to open documents sent in A.R., they may open, or just go blank.  Any suggestions or fixes?

    Setting up your email is a bit out of the scope of this forum. I'd suggest asking for help in the Apple forums devoted to the iPad. Good luck.

  • Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

    Is it possible to put adobe reader on my website for pdf file users ?

    The point is that, like all licensed software, you need permission to redistribute it in any form. So the question is: is that permission granted? If you can find anywhere that grants it that's fine.
    Adobe used to give out such permission back in the days of Reader 1, 2, 3... but I believe it was long ago removed. There is a strong reason to do this today: third party redistributors aren't likely to be hot on updating to new versions etc. There is a more cynical view: Adobe would also lose such benefits as it might get from offering dubious "extras" with the download. Finally, and strongly - if anyone can distribute it, these days who can tell who has the real product and who has a malware impersonator?

  • No phrase or multi-term search feature? I am using iBooks 4.1 on an iPad Air I thought it would support complex key word searching (even Adobe reader supports phrase searches in PDF files) is it really just limited to one key word per search?

    No phrase or multi-term search feature? I am using iBooks 4.1 on an iPad Air I thought an eBook reader would support complex key word searching (even Adobe reader supports phrase searches in PDF files) is iBooks really just limited to searching for one key word at a time?  Am I missing something  basic in the search interface?

    Greetings NoNameGiven,
    If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

  • Why does Adobe reader on iPad lock unlocked pdf files on move from computer

    I Have copied several pdf files, which I have made, from my laptop to my iPad. On my laptop they are unlocked and I can Add text etc. On the iPad they become locked and I cannot do this. Why? How do I stop this so that's can have u locked pdf files on my iPad.

    Rbradford,
    Did you add document restrictions or an "Open Password" protection to your PDF documents?  When you add any of document security features to a PDF document, it will be encrypted.
    Currently, Adobe Reader mobile products do not support adding annotations to encrypted PDF documents or filling out encrypted PDF forms, for example.
    To check whether your PDF document is encrypted
    Open your PDF document in the desktop version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro.
    Select File > Properties... from the menu.  (Or press Command+D for Mac, Control+D for Windows.)
    Select the Security Tab.
    Click the Show Details... button (if enabled).
    Check the last entry in the Document Security dialog.
    If this is not the case, please send one of your PDF documents to [email protected] and include the link to this forum post (https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1593031) in your email message for reference.
    We will inspect the PDF document and diagnose the cause of the problem.  Thank you.

  • Adobe Reader XI won't open PDF Files

    I had Adobe Reader 9 and when I tried to open a PDF file or just the program it would open for a few secopnds and then the window closes.  The program doesn't stay open.  I installed Adobe Reader XI but got the same results.  The program window opens for a few seconds and then closes before the PDF file is open.  What should I do to?

    Go to: C/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 11/Reader
    Look for a file named eula.exe (or just eula)
    Double click it
    Accept the license agreement
    Run Adobe Reader.

  • Windows 7, 64 bit won't allow me to set Adobe Reader X as default for PDF file

    By right clicking a pdf file I can choose Adobe Reader as opposed to MS word, but the box to set default won't accept check mark to set this for all pdf. Therefore, when I click a pdf without saving to documents first and using open with, the click notes a WAB file error regarding parameters ect. There must be a fix for this that I am not aware of.

    I have no idea what check box you are talking about or how you are trying to open a PDF. This is not the Reader forum where you should be asking this question. However, to set Reader as the default, you should be able to right click on the PDF and select open with, select Reader, and then check the box to always use this application to open a PDF.

  • Adobe Reader XI - Can't open PDF files

    My mother has Adobe Reader XI installed on her laptop and still can't open PDF files. We've tried uninstalling and installing several different versions and nothing seems to work. Can someone please help? Thank you.

    It's when she tries to open things that she gets online - like credit card statements, etc. It's also stuff that she gets emailed to her as a PDF attachment. It'll look like the document is going to open, but then she gets the following error message in a pop-up window:
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try. (103:103).
