Can't open files after update to Adobe Reader 10.1.1

I have Windows 7, 64 bit.  I recently relented to constant requests to update my Adobe Reader 9.0 (free vers.) to Adobe Reader X.  The update erased my former version. Now I can't open any of the .pdf files as it says "the network path was not found."  I tried the  Repair installation, it just installed Adobe Reader 10.1.1, which I assume is the same as the X version.  How do I get Adobe Reader to open my .pdf files?

Try running the combo update.
10.9.5 Combo Update
If that doesn't work, try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

  • Access denied after updating to Adobe reader 11.0.2

    Today I updated to the latest version of Adobe Reader. Afterwords I can no longer use it, it says access denied. I have trioed to remove and reinstall, without solving the problem. I have also checked my Flash Player, but it says that the latest version is already installed. What is this??? I need Adobe reader to work properly ASAP!
    My computer is a HP Pavilion dm1 Notebook and I have Windows 7 home premium installed. And Microsoft Windows.
    Regards,
    Liza

    Hi,
    The error message is: There was an error opening this document. Access denied.
    Both when I click directly on a pdf document in the files and when I try to open from inside the program.

  • Can`t open document on Illustrator but adobe reader and photoshop opens it, why?

    Can`t open document on Illustrator but adobe reader and photoshop opens it, it is a problem with the text font Futura T-Bold. How to open it on Illustrator?

    I downloaded the file, and:
    It is not a Photoshop PDF.
    I get the same result attempting to open in Illustrator; mangled font substitution. That's because I don't have one or more of the exact fonts used in the document installed on my computer, and I suspect the same is true of yours.
    The fact that it opens without issue in Reader and Photoshop is essentally meaningless, (or at least it's not an inidication that it also should open without issue in Illustrator, which is what your original post seems to imply). Reader displays the correct fonts because subsets of them are embedded in the PDF for use by Reader. Photohop just rasterises the whole page, so there is no font data needed.
    If you had the fonts, you wouldn't get the substitution in Illustrator. It works that way for any PDF.

    after updating to adobe  reader 11.0.3 my registry was corrupted with a gapi32.dll missing error. It was not missing and was conflicting with outlook as this dll file is a common file. The only way I could fix the problem was to do a system restore back to when I had the 11.0.2 version and everything will work with that. You have a problem with version 11.0.3 installation. The same thing happened on 3 computers so I know it is this new version of adobe reader which is the problem.

    It would be great, if you could provide us with the following details:
    1. The OS you are working on.
    2. The version of MS Office installed on your machine.
    3. A screenshot of the error message along with the scenario in which the same is displayed.
    4. How exactly did you go about updating Reader 11.0.02 to 11.0.03. Was it via the updater mechanism or by downloading the patch from the Adobe site.
    Also, it would be great if you could let us know if there was any other Windows or Antivirus related updates applied on your machine in the same timeframe as the Reader update.

  • Can't open file after Keynote crashed

    I was working on a large Keynote file (about 130 Mb), when Keynote (4.0.1) quite unexpectedly. It happened a few times before, and I thought it was because of the instability of the new Leopard system. This time, however, I could not open the file after the crash. An error message was displayed: "Can't open file" followed by the path and the file name.
    Does this happen to anyone else? Can anyone help? I hate to lose the work and go back to an early version.

    Keynote and Leopard, especially in their newest iterations, are remarkably stable. That said, no file, program, or OS is totally immune from corruption. Whenever a program, or worse, your Mac, even starts to behave strangely, your first step ought to be to attend to it with a good fixit utility. Repairing permissions is usually fruitless, since it's highly unlikely there's a permissions problem. You already own *Disk Utility*, so you should try to repair the disk with that. Unfortunately, DU's disk repair is pretty wimpy, often unable to repair a problem, or erroneously reporting no problem when one obviously exists.
    So, if you own a Mac, you owe it to yourself to buy at least one (but better, two) industrial-strength utility. There are really only three to choose from:
    1. DiskWarrior is an absolute must. It's unbeatable in rebuilding the directory, and the directory is usually what's corrupted. It can now fix files, too, which is also helpful.
    2. *TechTool Pro* is an excellent suite of fixits - directory, files, defrag, and some hardware tests. It also has a wonder feature, the eDrive. This is a small (10GB) bootable partition on your boot drive which has, among other things, TTP on it. If your main boot partition has a problem, you can boot from here and usually fix things. AFAIC, it's an absolute must on a laptop which you take on trips, far from your collection of fixit disks. You can also put DW on this partition, so you have everything you need right at your fingertips.
    3. *Drive Genius* is a relative new-comer, also a good suite of fixits, and, I believe, does backups, too.
    I have 1 and 2, and that has saved me from catastrophe more than once. 1 and 3 would probably be good, too. (You ought to have more than one of these serious apps because one can sometimes fix something another can't - different proprietary algorithms.)
    One last thing: if you have anything on your computer it'd break your heart to lose (and who doesn't), remember +The First Rule of Computing+: There are two kinds of computer users: those who have already lost all their data at least once, and those who have not yet lost all their data at least once. So: *backup, backup, backup*. I vote for bootable clones, done often (at least daily if you work daily), TimeMachine is pretty good, and there are other options. Pick one, and do it religiously.

    skype.jpg ‏22 KB

    Hi
    I also cannot send files for a few weeks now. It used to work and now it does not. I tried reinstalling and everything I could think of but it still does not work.
    I even thought it could be because I installed skype on my phone which seems to be always signed in no matter what I do (but that's another issue) so I uninstalled it from my phone as well. I read all articles and solutions. Nothing helps. I checked my IE and it is v11.
    I cannot send files to anybody (not just specific contacts). The opposite side does not even get notified about a file being send or something, while on mine there is this ever rolling circle on the right corner of the message (see screen-shot).
    Some time ago I had problems saving the received files so I have been touching some options - could it be that I changed something which I should not have?
    Please advise!!!

  • Quicktime Can't open files after 10.4.10 update

    I thought I had escaped all problems after installing the 10.4.10 combo updater, repairing permissions, etc. But today while trying to watch the iPhone Guided Tour video I discovered that Quicktime can't open it, nor anything else for that matter. Can't open audio files of any type, nor any video format. I have the current version of Quicktime, and after reinstalling it and reinstalling the combo updater, the situation remains broken. Quicktime Player will launch, but only to an error message :"Error Opening Movie. The movie could not be opened."
    Curiously I can watch the iPhone movie in iTunes. And all other audio formats supported by iTunes play as usual. Any suggestions?

    Hey Douglas,
    Would you mind expounding on this .... there is more than one Library.
    In the "main" (not the house user library) I did find a file in the Quick Time folder "Toast Video CD Support.qtx", and I removed it (that was the only file in there). Still getting the gray ? mark.
    Trying everything suggested in this forum and then some ... no good.
    did you try removing 3rd party codecs from the
    /Library/Quicktime folder to see if one of them has a
    conflict with the update?

  • Cannot open PDF file after update to Acrobat Reader 11.0.1 / 10.1.5

    I receive faxes from a service in the form of PDF files.  Up until today, I have been able to open them with no problem using Acrobat Reader 10.1.4 and lower. 
    Today, I updated Acrobat Reader to 10.1.5, and it's suddenly unable to open any of those files.  I tried uninstalling 10.1.5 and installing 11.0.1, and the same problem exists. 
    I also tried a computer with 11.0.0 that had not yet updated, and it works fine.
    Apparently, it's something about this latest update. 
    The PDF files open in other viewers like Foxit, Sumatra, and Chrome with no problem. 
    Here is the error:
    The offending file can be gotten from here:
    https://dl.dropbox.com/u/24145333/Cisco_fax.pdf
    Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
    /Mike

    Apparently I was incorrect on the Cisco box, we are using something different now. We use an Extended application server attached to a Meta Call feature server. This is a known issue for them.
    "We have discovered an issue that means that the format of fax PDFs generated on most versions of Metaswitch EAS is incompatible with the latest Adobe Reader (11.0.01).  This means that when your end users upgrade their Adobe Reader to 11.0.01, they will no longer be able to view faxes received from EAS in PDF format."
    The same is with version 10.1.5. I uninstalled 10.1.5 and reinstalled 10.1.4 and the problem went away. No updates for us for now

  • Can't open mail after update

    I am getting an error message saying that mail can't open because the newer version may be located elsewhere than in applications.  I have checked and I have versions 4.5 and 4.6 in applications.  I have followed instructions in help to reinstall Mac OS and security update then try mail again, but it still doesn't work.  Do I need to delete 4.5?  Sounds daft to you experts I'm sure, but am worried I will lose all my emails if I do so.  Also, seems that Adobe wants to open all files as default, but I can't figure out how to change that (in case that's the problem).  Would love some help, please.

    Delete 4.5. I would then go through the steps again (see here). It won't lose your setting or messages.
    Select a file that Adobe is opening, Command-I to bring up the Info window, choose what it should be opened with, then click Change All.
