Can not open PDF files anymore

My computer recently installed the latest Adobe reader and now I cannot open any PDF files, it looked like it is going to open, then closes. Does anyone know what the problem would be? I do have Norton 360 on my computer.

What is your operating system? What is your Reader version ("latest" means nothing)?

I can not open PDF files in safari

I can not open PDF files in safari. How can I fix this problem?

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
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 launch Safari and test.
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.

Hi Eidda,
This may because the attachment is a winmail.dat file. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information. Note: the article is written for OS X mail, but does also apply to this situation.

Even I have the latest version of Adober reader I still can not open pdf file on safari.

Save the file locally, open the Reader application and try to open it from there. If it still doesn't work provide the full details of your OS, Reader version and the exact error message you're getting when you try to open the file.

Can not open PDF file in IE8

I am running Windows XP sp3 and IE 8. When I try and open PDF files from a webpage I get a find button, save button, or cancel button. The PDF file will open if I save it to the desktop first but there is now way I can open the PDF from the webpage. And this is very annoying to the user. I have tried checking and unchecking the Display PDF in Browser option but this has not helped anything. Does anyone have any idea what might be happening or what I should try?
Thanks

no solution yet....adobe does not play well with redmond....ie microsoft...
((sidebar:
as adobe in silicone valley near apple....adobe started with WYSIWYG when they were
all PARC (division of xerox which closed down parc)...steven jobs bought the gui for apple and those that did not want to work for
jobs started adobe...and here we are w/ little/no support for adobe reader....which won the war with the pagis reader (xerox), now defunct...))
work around
open adobe reader and turn off "display pdf in browser" by unchecking the box...
steps
open adobe reader
edit
preferences
categories = internet
will be top line on right side....
OK and close...
now when you do a pdf,..the file will download to a temp folder and open a seperate window for the reader...
caveat:
store this info somewhere...after figuring out what to do i saved an adobe.txt file to aid this old memory of mine...
why
because sometimes you will have to turn it back on....
for example i had one bank where i have to turn it off to properly view/download the statements....
and another bank where i have to turn it back on to properly download the statements (this bank utilizes an aspx file to access/display the pdf and will not open it in a seperate window....) so it all depends on how the pages are coded....and you thought it was all to some standard...shame on you...ha ha
here's hoping this helps...
and wishing/hoping that the good folks at adobe (they have to be good, they didn't go to work for steve...nasty man...) will come up with a solution that will auto update...one can only hope...the ultimate optimist....good luck...and pls excuse any typos....

I suddenly can not open pdf files. I have had Adobe Reader Xl and just ran into this problem

I have had adobe reader xl for some time and suddenly can not open a pdf file. I received an email yesterday with a pdf attachment which I can not open. What could be my problem?

Hi Pat, My operating system is Windows 7, Home Premium Service Pack 1. My email client (email Provider is Cox Communications - Cox.net).
Can not in my post means I tried to open a pdf attachment to a email. I received nothing happens. I do not get a blank screen or any messages. Nothing Nothing happens at all. I can click several times and get no response.
I did discover that by clicking on the Adobe Icon on my deskt topi get an Adobe box containing "Do you want to allow changes to your computer. I click Yes and get to my computer where I can find the above mentoned attachment which I think I had previously saved. I then get the attachment whick I can print. This may be printing from my hard drive - I am not sure. I think I could go through this procedure every time I want to open a atachment but it seems a long way around.
Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have thought about removing Adobe and reinstalling. Maybe there is a corruption to my Adobe file.

I can not open PDF files in mail on iPhone 6plus

hhas anyone had a problem opening PDF files in mail. I get a grey screen

Try a reset, no data loss. Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
then check again.

HT1338 Can not open PDF files. Jus get blank black page.

PDF files will not open. Only get black blank page.

There's a solution if you want to see the PDF inside Safari's window :
Go to the folder : Your Hard Drive / Library / Internet Plug-ins.
If you see a file with PDF in its name drag it to the trash.
Quit and restart Safari to test with a PDF.
If it works you can empty the trash.

has anyone seen this issue. Desktop is using Windows XP, 4 gig ram, Adobe X verision 10.0.1

Did you try this? It worked for me.

Open up Adobe Reader X
On the Toolbar Menu go to Edit > Preferences
Go to the general tab under Categories.
Untick “Enable Protected Mode at Startup”
If asked if sure, click Yes and then Ok.
Now close Adobe Reader X and try opening the PDF again.

Can not open pdf files. It says C:\users\pc\AppData\Local\Temp\.....pdf application not found

Every time I tried to open an email received with an attachment in pdf format the following appears
C:\users\pc\AppData\Local\Temp\(file name)pdf application not found

Hi TedRayWesty,
When your computer “wake up” from “sleep” mode, the RAM will be able to respond to a wake-up event and calling files for program. There might be a calling failure. I searched about your temp folder name and the temp file name and seems like it is not a system
file and it is called by some third party software.
Try following steps to resolve your issue
Please perform a clean boot and see if the issue still persist.
Check the other contents in ScrC777.temp folder see if you could identify the software.(seems like some Security Software or Anti-Spyware)
Uninstall it and delete the temp folder see what happens.
