Can Not Open PDF? See error message

This document could not be imported. Its file type is either
an unsupported format or from an older version of a supported
application. Buzzword supports Rich Text Format (.rtf), Microsoft
Word 2003 or later, Microsoft Word XML, and plain text (.tx
I get that error message everytime I try to open a PDF and
when I try to open a few different word docs. Why is this?

Hi Pete,
Thanks for getting back to me. I will start off by saying I
am a moron when it comes to PDF files. I had a reader for pdf files
on my computer and thinking I didn't need it anymore I deleted it.
Well to make a long story shorter, when I realized I did need it I
tried to download it again. I got buzzword. which I thought is what
I was supposed to have. I guess this isn't what I need, so how do I
get the old reader back?
The word docs I tried to open were ext ending in .doc. I just
want to open and print them, not edit them. I don't know what
program wrote it, as I did not write it. I don't have word on my
computer, I mainly use notebook or word pad to do anything of that
type. I am mainly a part time photographer and use my computer for
editing photos and emails. Now I am trying to get freelance work
and apparently there are all kinds of forms and PDF crap I now have
to deal with. SOoooo..... that's it. any help you can offer as to
how to get my PDF reader back would be appreciated!
Thanks again
Susan

  • Can't open PDF, getting error message

    i have worked on a pdf document which has been sent to me to fill in. i have filled it in and saved a copy and now when i try to open it i get the following message.
    'This document enabled extended features in adobe reader. The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available. Please contact the author for the original version of this document.'
    This has happened twice now on the same document, what does it mean?

    Hello Pranavj,
    First - sorry if I am violating rules - posted this same question to another thread that showed the same error message.
    I am getting the same message with a file I JUST got off IRS website. 
    It is the 2011 Form 8829. 
    I get the error when I double click on IRS link or try to open from local copy.  I can not open it from the web browser or from my local drive after saving it.   Nothing shows - I am never able to view the document - I have NOT made any changes to it.
    I am running Windows 7 64 bit, Adobe Reader X version 10.1.4.
    After trying to open the doc (nothing displays) I go to properties, and it says ...
    Title: 2011 Form 8829
    Author: SE:W:CAR:MP
    Created: 12/23/2008P
    DF Producer: Adobe LiveCycle DSesigner ES 8.2.
    PDF Version: 1.7 (Acrobat 8.x)
    Tagged PDF: No

    I desperately want to fix this as I have 9 days before IRS sends troops to my house.

  • Can not open iTunes, get error message 126

    Unable to upgrade iTunes to lasted version.  Got error message about a missing file.  Tried to uninstall and reinstalled, after deleting Temp folder from C drive, but still get error message 126.  Can anyone tell me what I need to do?

    Hello mvguillet,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step.
    You can find the full article here:

  • HT201210 After downloading latest version of iTunes it will not open.  This error message is displayed;  The program can't star because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.  Then a second error box

    After iTunes requested that I download latest version on PC it now will not open.  2 error messages appear.  first:  The program can't start because MSVCR80.dll is missing from your computer.  Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.  second:  iTunes was not installed correctly please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 126).  I have tried reinstalling a number of times and restarting computer but no luck.

    This happened to me today as well post installing the latest version of itunes.   I did a search on google for the error and came across a recommendation to :
    Note: Start Windows in Safe Mode to complete any of the following steps if you're unable to access Windows normally due to the msvcr80.dll error.
    If, and only if, you're receiving the msvcr80.dll is missing error when you open Apple iTunes, do the following: (skip this step if your msvcr80.dll error is occurring with a different program)
    Uninstall from Windows the following five programs in this order: iTunes, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour, and finally Apple Application Support. If you have iCloud, remove it as well.
    Uninstalling these programs in Windows is done from an applet in Control Panel called Programs & Features (in Windows 8, 7, or Vista) or Add or Remove Programs (in Windows XP).
    Note: Songs and playlists in iTunes will not be removed when you uninstall the iTunes program or any of the other, already-mentioned Apple programs. If you'd still like to back them up, they're usually located in the My Music folder in Windows.
    Download the latest version of iTunes from Appleand note the location you're saving it to so you can find it once it's done.
    Run the iTunes installation as an administrator. If you're not sure how to do that, see How Do I Open an Elevated Command Prompt? for help. That procedure shows you how to open the Command Prompt program as an administrator, but the steps are essentially the same for anything, including the iTunes installation package you just downloaded.
    A general overview of removing and reinstalling iTunes can also be found here on Apple's site but the above procedure seems to work better in this particular situation.

  • Can Not Open PDF Attachments

    I can not open PDF attachments from outlook 2010. I am running windows 8  and using Adobe version 11.0.2  If I save the file to desktop, then it will allow me to open it and print it.
    Thanks in advance for yor help.
    the error says it can not open the file because it is unsupported or corrupt.

    If you can't open the attachment, have your client/ customer or whatever fix their defective copy of Outlook and send real mail attachments not TNEF encoded rubbish. They are spewing defective email every time they click send on a mail with an attachment.

    I can not open pdfs w/adobe reader for android on archos 10i tablet? How to fix it?

    Hi Dennis, thank you for the reply. I have Adobe Reader installed and open. When I click on the pdf documents an error message box opens and says "Error. The document cannot be opened beacause it is not a valid pdf document". Perhaps the pdf's on the USB memory stick are corrupted. I can't open them on the laptop either. I'll reload them and try again.

    I have open office.  Someone sent me e-mail I can't open.  get error message power pc no longer supported.  How do I open this doc?

    Right click your document, hover over "Open with..." and then click "Other".
    Find TextEdit and click "Open".
    TextEdit will then do it's best to open your document.
    If you have iLife, do the same but instead of opening with TextEdit open with Numbers, Pages, Keynote, e.t.c.
    To download iLife, click here.
    If the above link does not work, click here.

    Added "If the above link does not work" at the bottom of the post.

    The file was corrupted somewhere along the way (assuming it was still readable on the Macintosh).
    The platforms don't matter, but you still need file transfer that doesn't corrupt files...

  • 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.
