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)].

    Hi Eidda,
    This may because the attachment is a winmail.dat file. I would recommend taking a look at the article below for more information. Note: the article is written for OS X mail, but does also apply to this 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.

  • Can't open PDF's on my Mac coming in on MS Outlook 2010. Reinstalled Adobe software 4 x and still get "Adobe PDF Preview Handler" error message.

    No. Reader will not damage files. It is only meant to read pdf files. PDF files are frequently damaged when sent as email due to encoding issues.

  • Open PDF in Email?

    Since updating to iOS 7 can't open pdf sent by email. Will only open as single page picture

    Not even get the option after opening the attachment to select another app (reader, good reader, Dropbox etc.) it will only give me a picture which I could copy. If there are multiple pdf attachments it will not even give me pictures, just can't open anything. I assume there is a conflict with any of the apps, on my iPhone all works perfect

  • Adobe Reader XI - Can't open PDF files

    My mother has Adobe Reader XI installed on her laptop and still can't open PDF files. We've tried uninstalling and installing several different versions and nothing seems to work. Can someone please help? Thank you.

    It's when she tries to open things that she gets online - like credit card statements, etc. It's also stuff that she gets emailed to her as a PDF attachment. It'll look like the document is going to open, but then she gets the following error message in a pop-up window:
    There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try. (103:103).

  • Since last update for iOS can't open PDF file in iPhone 5

    Since last update on PDF can't open PDF file on iOS.
    MSG says that PDF file I'm trying to open is not a valid PDF file but I can open
    It on iPad. Any explanations please ?

    If you can share this PDF with us at [email protected], we can take a look, and see if there's a bug in Reader for iOS that is preventing us from opening it.

  • Can't open pdfs on iPhone 4s

    My iPhone 4s will not open pdfs. The loading bar begins but then stops about a 1/4 inch in and the screen goes blank. How can I open pdfs? I have Adobe Reader on my phone.

    I'm not even sure which reader it's using. I read online that Safari has it's own reader, but I also have Adobe so I'm not sure which one is trying to open it. I looked in my settings but I couldn't figure out how to determine my default reader. I'm just clicking on a link to a pdf on a website when this happens, although it also sometimes happens with email attachments. Some pdfs open, but most don't  - it seems kind of random.

  • I can't open PDF's but I was able to do it last week.

    I can't open PDF's but I was able to do it last week.  Does anyone have a resolution?

    OK,,,I'm back,  the version of reader is adobe reader XI.  The OS is WINDOWS 7. The PDF is off the desktop and emails. I am opening them up by double clicking and when I try I get the error message the operating system is not presently configured to run this application.

  • Can't open pdfs anymore

    Lately I have been unable to open PDFs from the internet.  When I click it sends me to a blank internet tab.  Sometimes I am able to control click and have the option to save the file in my downloads, then have to go back into finder to open the file.  This is also the case when opening PDFs from emails.  However there are some files on the internet that will not allow me that option.  I have tried this in firefox, safari, and chrome.  All are the same.  Everything worked just fine until about 3 days ago.  Please help?

    I've been having a similar problem with Safari pdf files despite downloading the latest Adobe Reader XI.
    I would constantly get messages - There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. And I would get a blank page when I tried to print the pdf if I tried printing from the Safari web page using File - Print from the top toolbar on my laptop.
    But at last I have managed to find a simple way around it.
    Firstly, without downloading the pdf, I printed the pdf file direct from the Safari page by using the Print icon on the grey lozenge that appears centrally three quarters down the screen.
    Then I discovered that if I save the pdf using the Save icon from this same grey lozenge on the Safari page I can open and print this pdf version from my desktop.
    I've tested it with a couple of different pdf files and these methods work using the grey lozenge icons but the same pdfs files don't work using File - Save As on the Tool Bar.

    Hi.  I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit.  I have the latest version of Adobe Reader,  It worked yesterday.  Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files.  I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow.  I have deleted and reinstalled the application.  I have rebooted.  I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program.  Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message.  It simply says Attempt to access invalid address.  How can I fix this?  Thanks.

    Hi Don,
    I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
    The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
    Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
    In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
    The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
    BEFORE:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
    AFTER:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
    Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
    Regards,
    Rave
