Can open PDF's on line but not downloaded files!

I had problems downloading/upgrading Adobe 9 until advised to remove Adobe download manager and start again. This I actioned and I now have Adobe 9 on my system.  However, before I actioned the above I was advised to try at start up clicking F8 (I believe?) and adjust my resolution down to 800 x 600 - this I did, but, it made no difference, Adobe 9 upgrade would not load. I now find I can open PDF's on line with my upgraded Adobe 9 in full screen resolution, but, all the earlier PDF's on file reduce my screen to 800 x 600 res and still don't open.  Is it possible to go back to the first action, click F8 at start up, etc, as detailed above, and reverse it?  If it is can someone please repeat the actions I must make i.e. is it F8 I click when I start up my computer, and, what do I then click on the screen, etc, I would be most grateful!

OK - I have looked at what actions advice I was given and it was - Press F8 @ advanced startup options, select VGA mode, Dialog box click OK to start Windows.....could this have restructured my screen resolution for existing PDFs?

Well hi to those few who actually looked at my problem and what a pity no one has been able to help me.  It is pretty obvious Adobe doesn't monitor these web pages otherwise I might have been thanking them for their help in sorting my problem out - fat chance!

Syncing via the Books tab on your computer's iTunes only syncs books to the iBooks app. If you want the PDFs in Adode Reader or the Kinlde then you will need to sync them via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's Apps tab when connected to your computer's iTunes - I don't think that iBooks supports the direct copying of PDFs from it to other apps

  • Why does Adobe Reader 9.5.0 open pdf created by Excel, but not with Reader X.

    We have a number of pdf's that open 100% with Adobe Reader 9.5.0, but not with Reader X.
    On Reader X, the message “A Number is out of range” is shown and the image is corrupted.
    The image was created using “File SaveAs PDF” from Excel (Office 2007), with “Standard” optimization.
    For interest, if the same “File SaveAs PDF”  from Excel (Office 2007) is used, but with “Minimum Size” optimization set, then the resulting pdf opens perfectly with both Reader 9 & X.
    Distressing that a new version does not work where previous version did.

    HI
    Sorry, my first time posting and I don’t seem to be able to attach the problem pdf to my posting.
    Example of problem file attached. Opens in 9.5.0 but not X

  • Can open Topics by drag & drop, but not by double-clicking in the DITA map

    Hi,
    evidently I made an error somewhere in my structure app, the result is that I cannot open DITA topics by double clicking them in the DITA map anymore (Framemaker does simpy nothing). I can, however, open them by dragging the xml files onto the Framemaker window.  If I use the standard DITA 1.2 application everything works fine so I guess the problem is in my mapping.
    Here is what I tried to achieve:
    We need certain variations of the normal 'topic' type topic. The DTD should be identical, however different structures should be auto-inserted when creating a topic and the topic should have certain attribute values predefined.
    The idea is that the author can select one of these topic types when creating a topic, but when opening an existing topic simply edit it with the standard topic temple.
    Here is what I did:
    I duplicated the topic.template.fm, renaming it say "topic_a.template.fm", "topic_b.template.fm" etc. (just an example).
    I made adjustments to the EDD of these templates, changing the auto-insertions and the default values of some attributes.
    In the structapps.fm file I added XML applications for these new topic types, mapping each application to one of the new templates, but to the original topic DTD and r/w rules. E.g. the application "DITA_1.2_topic_a" is mapped to the "topic_a.template.fm" template, and to the original "topic.dtd" and "topic.rules.txt" files.
    In Framemaker I then created corresponding application mappings in the DITA options. E.g. the topic type "A" (which defines the visible text in the "New topic" menu) is maped to the XML application "DITA_1.2_topic_a".
    The result:
    It works as intended in every way when creating topics. The topics are saved with the standard doctype 'topic'. However for when I try to open topics from the DTD by double-clicking then nothing happens. Opening topics by drag & drop works fine though and they are opened with the normal (general) "topic.template.fm" template as desired.
    Any ideas? Was this confusing or am I completely off somewhere?
    Robert

    Hi Robert...
    When you say that you need "variations" from the normal topic type .. are those structural variations or just formatting? FM associates structure apps with XML files based on the doctype (root element). If your files all have the same root element, then they will all open with the same structure application (unless you specify a different one when opening the file or by importing a new EDD). It sounds like you really should be creating a specialization for each alternate topic type. If you don't, you'll end up getting the wrong "model" assigned to the wrong file.
    Multiple EDDs (structure apps) can share the same DTD, and one EDD (structure app) can support multiple models. This is how the "ditabase" app works. There are lots of ways to set this up, but I think what you've done is probably not quite right.
    The default structure app setup in FM11 and FM12 is very complicated to work with. I recommend creating a single app that supports many models. This isn't always possible, but it sounds like in your case it should be. I've set up one app that supports 13 different specialized topic models and it works fine.
    Note that even though you've added structure apps for each model, if you end up opening the files using the default template, you are no longer using those modified models.
    Sorry, but this is a bit more than can be dealt with appropriately in a forum post. If you'd like more help with this, feel free to contact me off list.
    Cheers,

  • I can open my yahoo mail inbox, but not an email sine i downloaded firefox 4, likewise facebook opens but without content ie just logo

    internet explorer works ok

    UPDATE:
    After waiting for about ten days, I tried setting up my e-mail the regular way (by selecting yahoo mail) again yesterday. To my surprise, it went through without a glitch. I guess the cache of the gateway server must have been reset.
    I have been enjoying push for yahoo mail for the last 24 hours again. But I just noticed now, that the problems might be starting again. There are recent e-mails that don't show up on my phone, but do through yahoo's web mail page. When I select "refresh" through the menu on the phone, I see the circle in the top corner spinning for as long as I wait, but the e-mails don't get downloaded. That is exactly how my problems had started in the first place. I will give it the benefit of the doubt and wait and hope that it fixes itself.
    There might be a compatibility problem with yahoo servers and the verizon email gateway because I have two gmail accounts set up with the stock e-mail the same way, both using verizon's gateway server for push, and they have both been working with no problems for almost a month. (Even though sometimes the "push" is delayed by up to 5-10 min, most of the time it is within a couple of minutes and that's fine, I'm not that picky) And when I do "refresh", ti only takes a few seconds to complete the request.
    And I still haven't heard anything from Verizon.

  • Can I purchase a tv episode but not download it?

    Since all my purchases are kept in the cloud and can be streamed to my AppleTV, I have no need to download TV episodes - taking up drive space, Time Machine drive space, lengthening the time it takes to do full volume (SuperDuper!) backups.

    If you purchase a TV episode you have to download it, otherwise it will just sit in your account's download queue and resume downloading everytime you connect to the iTunes Store. That said, you could certainly delete it after downloading it, if that is what you want. However, I feel I should mention that items are only available for redownload via the cloud for as long as they are available in the iTunes Store. If that content is ever deleted from the store's catalog, then you won't be able to redownload it. For this reason, it is still a good idea to back up your purchases.

  • Downloaded certain files from my old computer on a memory stick.Have inputted stick into my new mac and can open PDF files but not xlr,aww or eps files.Is there a solution to this please?

    Transferred certain files to my new Mac from my old computer via memory stick.Can open PDF files but not xlr,aww or wps ones.The important ones are in xlr format.Is there a solution please?

    My guess is they don't care. Most likely they're illiterate and don't know what a colon is for. They probably think it's a little-used character. Remember: these are the people who don't know the difference between "deprecate" and "depreciate".
    I have the same colon problem as you do. But it's not the biggest problem I have encountered in Lion. If it was only that I'd be Mr. Delighted with Lion. There's worse than having a colon - uh -  that won't cooperate. A lot worse, in Lion.

  • I can open pdf files in emails, but not on websites. I have the new Reader.

    I can open pdf files in emails, but not on websites, as I was able to a couple of weeks ago. On websites I get the message, "Adobe Acrobat has crashed". I downloaded the new Adobe Reader and that didn't help. I don't have Adobe Acrobat, on Adobe Reader.

    Windows 7, Google Chrome and the most recent Adobe Reader (just downloaded the same day). The problem is with Google Chrome, as Fire Fox works fine. I tried enabling and disabling what would read pdf files in Chrome plugins and found that the only thing that worked was to disable adobe reader and enable chrome reader, which is the opposite of what was reccomended in answer to other adobe forum questions that were similar to mine.

  • In documents I can open pdf files but none of the others

    When I go to documents I can open pdf files but nothing else. Same on downloads. I have lots of info I've downloaded over time and I often use it. Can I just go back and use internet explorer for that and if so how?

    Opening in the side bar is the default for bookmarks that are created via a link or button on a website.<br />
    You can check the Properties of a bookmark via the right-click context menu in the side bar (Ctrl+B; Cmd+B on Mac).<br />
    In the Bookmarks Manager (Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks) you can click the More button in the Details pane at the bottom right.<br />
    Make sure that "Load this bookmark in the side bar" is not selected.<br />

  • Can receive mail, see first lines but blank when opened....

    Hi there,
    I have been using my iPod Touch without problem for months. Got it updated last week and now I have a problem with my mail. I can receive new mail and the first few lines are displayed, but when I click on it to open it and read it, all the messages are blank. Anyone figured out a solution to this glitch? Many thanks!

    I had the same problem (started 2 days ago) and also, when I was creating a new email I could enter text into the subject line but not in the body of the letter.
    I did a reset and it solved the problem. To reset:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until either the Apple logo or battery symbol appears

  • TA25361 I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addres

    I have a ton of documents and databases in AppleWorks v 6.0 that I can no longer open on my MacBook Pro.  Is there any way to recover this info?  Some documents can be opened and resaved with textedit, but not my database with all important addresses.

    I tried Peggy's List > Select All > Copy > Paste into an AW spreadsheet suggestion.
    In my case, pasting into the spreadsheet lost all text formatting (mostly text set to bold). The results of formulas were pasted, and checkboxes were pasted as "on" or "off". The DB did not contain any pop-up menus or radio buttons, but I expect they would transfer as a number showing the list position of the chosen item.
    Pasting the copied List view data into a Numbers table gave a result similar to that with AppleWorks. I selected B2 as the target cell (for top left cell of the pasted data) to avoid any effects of posting into a header row or column. Bold and regular text formatting looked the same as it had in AW's List view.
    Based on that, I'd slip the 'paste into an AppleWorks Spreadsheet step, and paste directly into a Numbers Table.
    Regards,
    Barry
