Can't open old docs in Adobe Reader 9.2

After installing 9.2 and uninstalling earlier versions, I'm having problems opening documents created earlier.  Some open eventually but others not.  Any suggestions?

is surely better if u uninstall it and reinstall the 8 version, 9.x versions are full of bugs

    Is there a Dock Icon that was created for your Printer? If so, open it and look at the list to be printed and delete the extras.
    If not, you did not get that far, so no 15 copies for you!

  • I can't open PDF files, can't open, update, or download Adobe Reader ( I had it until recently) and don't have an "edit options"

    I can't open PDF files, can't open, update, or download Adobe Reader. (I had it until recently.) None of the "helps" seem to help. I can't even open Adobe Reader now.

    Ignore the instructions about "edit options", to install Adobe Reader download the installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/ and run the installer. Alternatively, a direct link for the latest version of Adobe Reader is:
    http://ardownload.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/9.x/9.3.4/enu/AdbeRdr934_en_US.exe
    The following article should help you set it up - [[opening PDF files within Firefox]].

  • Can't Open PDF form in Adobe Reader 11.0.3 on Mac OSX 10.8.4 Intel

    Hi,
    I hope you can help, this is driving me nuts.
    I have a PDF Form which opens fine in Windows Adobe Reader, when I attempt to open it on OS X I get the following:
    Please wait...
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by visiting http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit http://www.adobe.com/go/acrreader.

Mac is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the United States and other countries. Linux is the registered trademark of Linus Torvalds in the U.S. and other countries.
    No matter how long I wait it will not replace this text with the actual form. I have tried installing the latest 10.x as well and still have the same problem.
    How can I debug what is going on rather than just "waiting"...?
    Thanks!

    I'm encountering the same problem on the two computers below. Email attachments will open in the same manner. Attempts to download or open PDFs on the Internet result in a black page with no content or the warning you've noted above.
    Macbook pro 15 running 10.8.4
    Mac Mini running 10.8.4
    I am able to open PDFs on a Mac pro 17 running 10.7.5. I have used airdrop to move the document to one of the above two computers. This results in the original file becoming corrupted and unable to open and the file moved to the other computer will also state that it is corrupted.
    There is clearly something amiss in Adobe and Mac working together. (And it is causing considerable frustration at this point.)
    I should add, I have the full Adobe PDF product on the Mac Mini.

  • Can't open PDFs/uninstall program Adobe Reader (11.0.08) MUI

    I can't open PDFs, can't uninstall program, I have Adobe Reader (11.0.08) MUI (I don't know what MUI is...), help! I have tried numerous times to uninstall and change the program. Every time I try to do this, a window comes up saying that files are open (Adobe Reader) and to either retry or close. I can do neither, so I'm unable to uninstall the program. I've never had anything like this happen to me. I scanned my computer for viruses, malware, etc. and nothing came up. Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I just try to download the software from the Adobe site and see what happens?
    Thanks, Tracy

    Assuming you are in Windows (which you haven't said), you can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:
    http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
    http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    After downloading, restart your computer and run the installer before doing anything else.
    And I think it is Multilanguage User Interface...

  • Can't open web pdf document: Adobe Reader 10 stops at welcome screen

    I installed Adobe Reader X.
    Now, when I open a pdf file from the web, the browser (either Google Chrome, Opera or Firefox) downloads the file and opens Adobe X.
    Funny, I thought. Up to this date (using Adobe 9) the browser opened the file into a browser window, using the plugin.
    Of course, I went into Reader Edit/Preferences/Internet and checked the "Display PDF in browser" to no avail: instead of opening the pdf inside the browser, the browser launches the Reader X program.
    However, after downloading the pdf and opening Reader X, you find a nice gorram welcome screen.
    As there is no way to close that screen (you have to choose one of the documents opened in the past or pick a document from the disk), Adobe Reader will not open the file I just picked in the browser. It just sits there waiting for me to pick one of the options of this welcoming screen.
    Of course, the page with the files I'm trying to download uses an script or something similar to load them, so I cannot right click on any of the files to download them to a folder and then open them using Reader's "Open file" option.
    The file I'm trying to open is this one: http://www.docs.sony.com/release/DCRTRV19.pdf
    The page where the file resides is this one: http://esupport.sony.com/US/p/model-home.pl?mdl=DCRTRV19&template_id=1&region_id=1&tab=man uals#/manualsTab
    So, how in heaven do I open this file from my browser? (as I said, Opera, Chrome and Firefox all display the same behaviour. I haven't tried IE and I refuse to do it).
    To be sincere, in Firefox the file opened once. I read the first pages and then I made the mistake of indicating to the browser that it should use the Adobe X to open pdf files. (Firefox "offered" that option out of its "own free will").
    Now I have the same problem in Firefox: I see a nice blue bar that indicates the percentage of the file downloaded and, when it reaches 100%, Adobe opens and "freezes" the browser, because Reader sits there at the welcome screen and the browser is waiting for the file to open.
    Of course, the help for plug ins at Firefox and Opera (I haven't checked Chrome) says simply: download Adobe Reader and that's it.
    I frankly hate this behaviour: up to this date Reader has been the source of simplicity, the example of a software that does only what it was made to do, sitting quietly in my PC, churning pdf files without the slightest complain, a veritable jewel among poorly designed software.
    As this unclosable welcome screen seems to me a blatant attempt by Adobe to undercut the many web sites that offer to translate PDFs to Word documents, my only thoughts are: thanks, people at Adobe! You have managed to break the unbreakable.
    Can anyone help me? This day has been a nice one up to this moment...

    Please let me know the following details:
    1. The exact version of Adobe Reader on your system. You can get the same by clicking on Help > About Adobe Reader or getting the same information from the Add/Remove Programs section in the Conrol Panel. If its not the latest version of Reader i.e. 11.0.03, please download the same from: http://get.adobe.com/reader and see if it solves the issue.
    2. Does the issue also happen if you just launch the Reader application alone without launching any PDF.
    3. Are you using any 3rd party plugin for Adobe Reader. If so, please remove the same and see if it solves your problem.
    In case you arent sure regarding the same, please follow the below steps and see if it helps:
         a. Navigate to the Reader installation folder. Usually its C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 11.0
         b. Ensure that Adobe Reader is not running and delete the entire "Reader" folder
         c. Initiate a Repair transaction for Adobe Reader from the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs
    4. Try temporarily disabling the Anitivirus software, and see if it solves your issue.

  • Can't open PDF portfolio in Adobe Reader 11.0.10

    I've seen this question asked a few times on the Forums, but I haven't seen an answer.
    I received a PDF portfolio, but I can't open it on my Mac (OSX 10.10.2) using Adobe Reader 11.0.10. When I try to open it, I get the message, "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." I've tried both Adobe Reader and Acrobat (also 11.0.10) but I keep getting the same message in both. I heard that this can sometimes be a problem caused by Flash, but I am running version 16.0.0.296 of that. I tried updating both Adobe Reader and Flash Player just in case I didn't have the latest version for some reason, but I still can't open the file. Is there anything else that I should do to get it to open correctly?

    Hi Zak ,
    In order to view PDF Portfolio content, you need to have Flash Player installed on your system.
    You might have been prompted to use Flash Player to view the same.
    Have you installed Adobe Flash Player on your system? You can install it from the link mentioned below:
    Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions
    Let us know.

  • Can't open .zip attachment in Adobe Reader 8.1.2

    Dear all,
    In Adobe Reader 8.1.2 I can't open zip files attached to pdf files any more. I followed some hints in the knowledge base but none of them solved my problem. The registry editing suggestions for rel. 7 doesn't apply to version 8.1.2. and setting the trust option didn't help as well.
    In brief what are the steps in order to allow reader 8.1.2 to open zip attached to pdf files???
    Thanks in advance for any helpful suggestion.

    > The registry editing suggestions for rel. 7 doesn't apply to version 8.1.2
    You can use the suggestions for version 8.1.2. Search the registry for cDefaultLaunchAttachmentPerms.

    - Does it happen with just a certain file, or all of them

  • I can't open any pdf with Adobe Reader XI, neither online or offline - OS X

    Since I've upgraded to Acrobat Reader XI I'm not able to open any pdf file.
    I can't open any .PDF already existing in my Mac and also can't open anything online throughout browser (I use Safari and Chrome)
    I've already uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader over and over again and it has no improving.
    I've tried to install an older version and still doesn't work.
    All my problems started with the upgrade to Adobe Reader XI.
    As you can imagine I really need to be able to open pdf through browser, that's my biggest concern.
    I'll attach the error message that appears on the screen.

    Hi a.vouga,
    Are you still facing this issue.
    If yes, i would suggest you may create a new user profile and install Reader again and check.

  • Can't open interactive form with adobe reader mobile version

    Hello,
    I have an interactive PDF document which I would like to open with my mobile phone (Android) and the adobe reader. If I open the document an error message appears.
    Do we need to adjust the script to enable interactive forms also on mobile devices? The pdf document can be opend on my PC without issues.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I believe that the PDF Form that you are trying to open and fill out is an XFA form. Mobile Reader currently cannot display XFA forms.For these XFA PDF files, you will need to open them on your desktop Adobe Reader to read and fill the form.
    Thanks,
    Adobe Reader Team

  • Why can't I open a document in Adobe Reader?

    Why can't I open a document in Adobe Reader?

    I have been having the same issue since January. Oddly, I can read the docs that I scan as pdf on my iPad but not on my Mac or PC. I receive the following message:
    "Adobe Reader could not open '_____.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    It doesn't matter if I use Safari, Chrome, etc.
    I have the most up to date Adobe products.
