Can't open PDFs from Outlook Access denied

We are trying to open PDFs from Outlook in Reader XI. Even after disabling protected mode, continue to receive the message "There was an error opening this document. Access denied.". Any suggestions?
Thanks

A. Fix One PC
Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader X
Go to: Edit > Preferences...
Click on "General" in the left pane.
Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
You will prompted with a dialog box to remind you to close the application for the change to go into effect. Click Yes.
Click OK to save your change.
Exit Adobe Reader
B. Fix Several PCs in Your Organization
Following the above steps aren't practical if you have Adobe Acrobat installed on 1,000+ computers in 30 regional offices! Push this registry setting using your standard software deployment software.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\Privileged]
"bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000

Can't open PDF from single source sender

I am on a Mac platform and have no trouble opening PDF documents with the exception of those that come through email from a particular sender. The error I receive when I try to open the documents from the original sender is
Adobe Reader could not open 'Order_Ack-820.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).
When this same file is sent to a different person and then forwarded to me, I can open it.
Any thoughts on why this is happening.

Can't open PDFs from Skydrive

I started using Windows Skydrive and really like the convenience but when I send myself a link to another email address to check a link before I send the link to a group of parents or students, if the document the link should open is a PDF then I get a message telling me that I need to download Adobe Reader add-in.
I have a new laptop which is running Windows 7 (64bit) and Office 2010 Professional Educational Suite (if it matters.
I have all the latest Adobe software installed, including Adobe Reader X... and have No Problems with reading PDFs otherwise.
When I check if my IE is set to 64bit or 32bit, it states that 64bit is not allowed to be set as the default, so the solution that someone else had in the forum must not be the same issue as mine.
Really need a professional solution here so I can be assured my students can also open their documents!

Not quite sure from your description what the problem is.
Note that Adobe Reader is a 32-bit application, as is the browser add-on. It can therefore only run on 32-bit browsers.
When I try to open a PDF from a 64-bit browser, the document will open outside of the browser, in the standalone Adobe Reader.

Can't open pdf from single source & 9.3 won't install

I receive a weekly update from a source. Until Jan.22 had no trouble
accessing it. Now when I click the link it goes to the link's site but no pdf appea
rs, just a a normal site page
w/o the acrobat background I am on Vista platform,and IE8.. I can access this link from my laptop Also tried to upgrade from 9.0 to 9.3. Download finished but installation could not be completed. Said there were files open that were being used. I had no other files open. I am very frustrated and
I am not experienced enough to know what to do.

To re-install iPhoto
1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
2a: On 10.5: Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows: In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
/var/db/receipts/
2c: on 10.7 they're at
/private/var/db/receipts
A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
3. Re-install.
If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

Can't open PDFs from mail or saved to desktop.

I can't open any pdf file from mail. This is the error message I get..."The application “Adobe Reader” failed to open the attachment “HRA-Reg-SC-2009.pdf”. Would you like to save the file to disk?"
Then it says it "you cannot open this application because it is not supported on this architecture. Can anyone help me? Here I get a new computer and can't open pdfs

Could be an adobe issue. Is it up to date? Within Adobe in the Help menu, try repair adobe installation. In the mean time, right click on any pdf and Get Info. Under open with, change it to preview.

I have adobe reader but cant open pdfs from emails. Why?

Getting very frustrated as recently cant open pdfs sent to me by emails although I have Adobe reader app on my tablet. Comes up with message Open file failed. Help please
Donut1950

donut1950,
Would you provide more information about your problem so that we can troubleshoot?
What is the version of your Adobe Reader for Android?
What is the version of Android OS?
What is the mail app do you use to read email on Android?
When you try to open an PDF attachment, do you see the dialog "Compete action using" with the Adobe Reader icon? Does the dialog have "Always" and "Just Once"?
Could you tell us the exact error message that you see when you try to open an PDF attachment?
Does the problem happen with ONE particular PDF attachment? Or does it happen with any PDF attachments all the time?

Downloaded adobe reader for mac, but can't open pdf from websites

I just downloaded the Adobe reader for Mac, but can't open any pdf from websites. I've already deleted the previous version off of my computer. I even intstalled Adobe Air Reader as well, but nothing is working. Please help! =(

In case you have Safari version 5.1 and above, please have a look at :http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90885.html
If this is not the case please see if the safari has 32-bit mode enable. More info at: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/509/cpsid_50983.html

Can't open pdf in emails

I am running Windows 7, IE 11. When I get a pdf attached to an email. I click on it. Popup asks Open or Save. Select Open. Dialogue box closes and nothing happens. If i save the pdf it will open fine. I don't want to have to save pdfs and then go find them just to get them open.
I think this changed with one of your updates. I have the most recent version of Adobe Reader.

Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

Can't open PDFs from website. Use OS X 6.8 & Firefox 24

When I click on the link, I get a blank screen. If I switch to Safari I can open PDFs, but not with Firefox. Can you help?

Can you check your PDF viewer setting? This article describes how to switch it: [[View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them]] (skip to the section "Using a PDF reader plugin"). If your current setting doesn't work, does another one of the options work?

Can't open attachnents from email?

Downloaded a trial version of XI Pro. For some reason or fault I can't open attachments needed for work. Like planograms, newsletter, etc..

And what exactly? Does Acrobat not launch at all or what? you need to explain better and provide the necessary technical information. We don't know anything about your computer or your e-mail procedures for that matter.

I can't open pdf from safari. I get a blank black page

On a Mac, I can right click if the option is available and download to downloads and open that way but I can't click on a link that is a pdf and it open. It loads a blank black page. Am I missing a plug in? What? IT is driving me crazy.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. <br>
See '''Creating a profile''':

If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem <br>

Reader 9, blank dialog box, can't open PDF from web

I have a newly custom built computer running XP Pro (Quad-core with 3g of ram). I have a fresh install of Reader 9 and Firefox 3.0.1. When trying to open a PDF shipping label from USPS.com, Reader opens and an empty dialog box appears with only the OK button. When I click OK, Reader closes. I cannot print my shipping labels. Please help.

Same problem here. It took me a while, but I got it to work.
Changing on how the content type would be handled did it for me.
Check the image here:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Image:Fx3Applications.png
I needed to change the entry for 'PDF Document'. I set it to the top option. Doing this and testing it right away yielded in a crash. After restarting firefox the problems were gone.
More info on the image above: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Adobe_Reader
My guess is that the Adobe reader couldn't handle the fact that firefox hadn't downloaded the document yet, but was still trying to get it to open.

Can't open links from email

I'm using Firefox 29 on Win7x64. It's my default browser. Sometimes, when I try to open a web link from Outlook email or Yahoo email, the link does not open. Instead, Firefox opens a process every time that I click, but does not open the link or even a page. If I try to open another Firefox instance by clicking the shortcut, yet another process starts, but a page does not open. Safe mode does not help. The only resolution thus far is to close every process or reboot, and then re-install Firefox. This issue began in v29 or the one just before. I also have tried suggestions posted to the forum. Thanks!

I've tried this several times. It works for a while, but the issue recurs. Resting Firefox never is a good solution for any Firefox issue.
