Attachments Help Please

I'm not sure this is a BT issue but I'm hoping some kind person will be able to help me.
PDF attachments with incoming emails are all opening in Word which is 'converting' them so the documents are altered & don't look right. I'd just like to open them all in the format that was working until about a week ago - which was PDF. It was absolutely fine for me.
I think I may have altered a setting that is causing this problem but can't see what it was or how to resolve it.  I haven't removed Adobe or anything.
I'd be grateful for any advice you can offer.
Thank you
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you go to Start > Control Panel > Default Programs > Associate a File Type or Protocol with specific program > scroll down and to PDF and check that it is associated with Adobe.
If it not highlight it and then click on the change program button at the top. It should give Adobe as the recommended program.
If not click on browse and find the Adobe folder then click on it and look for Acrobat Reader, click on that and find the Reader file, click on that then click on the AcroRd icon and save.
This should now open PDF files in Adobe Reader.

  • Help Please - having difficulties creating af link from the text to an attached file i acrobat

    I have been reading the help, but it just wonn't work when I try.
    I have tried as followed (I am working with a danish version, and hope to matched the same word as in the english version of Acrobat Xpro):
    1. From the toolbox i choose content and then 'hyperlink'
    2. I mark the text from which i wish to make a link
    3. Acrobat respond with an popup picture 'create a link'
    4. From the popup I mark 'Open a side' and push 'next'
    5. Acrobat respond with a new popup picture 'create / go to a side'
    6. I go to the navigator and open the list with attached file's that I have embedded in my acrobat file.
    7. I mark the to which i wish to make a link to
    8. In the popup 'create / go to a side' that stilll is open, i push 'Mark hyperlink'
    Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
    How do i do it right?
    Please help.

    Hello Bernd
    Thanks for a quick respond.
    This corresponds to the text I have tried myself, but apparently I do something wrong
    1.      Open a PDF that contains a PDF file attachment – done
    2.      Go to where you want to create a link. If that location is in the file attachment, click the Attachments button in the navigation pane, select the file attachment, and click open.
    Here I go to side number 10 from which I wish to make a link from (I am not open the attachment file at this moment, as the location not is inside the file attachment).
    (I earlier also tried to  mark the attachment file and click open, and It result that the attached file just opened normally without creating a link to the file).
    3.      Choose Tools > Content > link, and select the area for the link
    Here  I mark the text on side 10 from which I wish to make a link to a attached file
    4.      In the Create Link dialog box, set the link appearance, select Go To A Page View, and then click Next
    Here I have selected ‘Go to a page view’ as told and I click Next
    5.      Set the page number and view magnification you want, either in the parent PDF document or in the file attachment, and then click set link.
    Here I go to the navigation pane and mark the attached file from the file list (the files in the list hasn’t any side number in the list) and then I click Set Link.
    Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
    What do I do wrong.?

  • Help please with Mail attachements

    Can anyone help please. When I send an email with an attachment such as a jpeg to a Windows user the recipient complains that the attachment is embedded in the email and can not be extracted to forward, or print for example. I end up having to use Entourage for Mac to send attachments which works for them but is a pain to me.
    What do I need to do to have truly Windows Friendly attachments?
    Thanks in anticipation.

    When a PC Outlook user gets a jpg you have attached, even clicking USE WINDOWS FRIENDLY ATTACHMENTS will not alter it. We've done several experiments here and it seems that if you select USE RICH TEXT for formatting in mail preferences MAIL determines that you want to imbed the graphic rather than attach it. If you select use plain text, the jpg will attach properly, but you lose any HTML signatures you have set up, which is a problem for me.
    If a yahoo mail is sent from the Mail client, it automatically changes to plain text.
    I like Mac Mail, but I want control over how the attachments are sent, so I can have my jpg not imbedded and my HTML signature.

    There are no updates to either OS 10.5.8 or Safari 5.0.6.

  • I have just updated my PC with version11.14. I can no longer connect to my Bose 30 soundtouch via media player Can anyone help please

    I have a Bose soundtouch system .Until today I could play my iTunes music through it via air  player . .I have just uploaded the latest upgrade from iTunes and now I am unable to connect to the Bose system . Can anyone help please? I can connect via my iPad and by using the Bose app so it is not the Bose at fault

    @puebloryan, I realize this thread is a bit old, but I have encountered a similr problem and wondered if you had found a solution. I've been using home sharing from itines on my PCs for years, but two days ago, it suddenly stopped. I can share from my Macs, but not from the ONE PC library where I keep all my tunes. I tried all the usual trouble-shooting measures.
    After turning home sharing off on the PC's iTunes, turning it back on and turning some other settings off and on, my Macs and Apple TV could briefly "see" the PC library, but as soon as I try to connect -- the wheel spins for a bit and then the connection vanishes. It's as if they try and then give up.
    Since this sounds so similar to your problem, I was hoping you finally found a solution. I am also starting a new thread. Thanks!

  • Photoshop Elements 6 on Mac help please !!!!!

    Hi there,
              I need help please !!!!!
    I have PSE 6 for my imac and bought myself a NIKON D60 so far so good. I have installed PSE 6 which comes with ADOBE Bridge CS3
    I have bought a book as well as I am new to photoshop and in fact DSLR cameras.
    I have got my photos into Bridge OK by the way they are JPEG format. According to the book I can open the JPEG in camera RAW by either selecting the JPEG and then pressing cmd+R or by selecting the JPEG and select open with and camera RAW should be available to selct.
    I cannot get of the options to work any ideas please
    Secondly I have taken some photos in RAW format and put then into Bridge again I cannot get the camera RAW interface to open with these neff images.
    If I try to open the image PSE 6 opens and gives me an error that the file format is not supported by PSE 6
    Am I missing something here as I have been trying for a week now !!!!!
    Sorry if this comes across a stupid question but it is new to me
    Chris      UK

    There's no "theory" about it. You should be able to open a raw file from bridge by double-clicking it, but it will open in ACR in PSE. You can't just use ACR within bridge in PSE, if that's what you're trying to do. To open a JPEG in ACR, go to file>Open in PSE and choose Camera raw as the format after you select the file but before you click Open.
    If you've correctly updated ACR, bridge should show you thumbnails of your raw files. If it doesn't try emptying the Bridge cache.

  • Photoshop CS2. Help please.

    Approx 8 years ago I purchased Photoshop CS2 online from Adobe. This past weekend I had to buy a new computer (Windows 8.1), and when I logged into my Adobe account just now to obtain my serial number and enter it after I attempted to download CS2, it said invalid serial number. Help please.
    Both tech support and the online chat person were not able to help me.

    The Activation Servers for CS2 and prior have been taken down. See the link below for an explanation and solution. Be sure to follow all directions, including using the new download serial number supplied on the page.

  • Creative live cam voice help please

    Help please,
    We are using the "live cam voice" model, with our computer (Vista 32bit), that appears to work OK, but after a few minutes we get the BSOD! We have tried un installing and re-installing drivers without any effect.Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you fix it.
    Regards,
    Arthur

    Thanks for your response. I have tried 3 ports so far, all with the same outcome. One of my sons had it happen to him on another computer (XP SP2) using this webcam . As to programmes open at the same time, I am not computer literate and have no idea what programmes were running on each occasion.We use the webcam for Skype and apart from that I may also have IE open and perhaps Outlook Express. Over and above those CS4 sometimes.
    If I cannot resolve this, can any one suggest another webcam please.
