Can't read pdf files after update!!

Old pdf files won't open, moved over some, still couldn't read, and emailed myself a pdf (it downloaded but would not open!!). Everything was working fine before update... now nothing works (can't even load txt files that can be seen in document viewer.
checked the pdf app and it doesn't allow me to delete it to reinstall!!
What the hell is going on??
Help!

Also you might want to get an andriod pdf reader...which is 1000 times better than the native one...it's called repliGo reader....have to install a bar file so you might want to head to crackberry.com to find out how..

Can't print pdf files after upgrading to Adobe Reader XI

Hi,
I can't print pdf files after recently upgrading to Adobe Reader XI.
Two error messages appear:
1.- Error when starting the application because it couldn't find LXBBGF.DLL. Re-installing the application can solve the problem.
2.- Can not load "LXBBPRP.DLL". Using defaults. Error: 126
I can print other files (word, etc) with the same printer.
Thank you for your advice

Hi Pat,
Finally I followed the instructions from another similar discussion on this web site. Unfortunately I can't find it anymore...
I first uninstalled the Adobe Reader XI and then intalled an older version (Adobe Reader X). Now I can print pdf files!!
Thank you anyway for your advice!

How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document. When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

hi there
try the vi
..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)
Best regards

I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome.

I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome. I can't even see the acrobat reader plugin in the plugins page. Acrobat 10 is already installed in my PC. Every time I try to read a PDF file on the web, FF tries to download it instead.

As recommended above by Bernd Alheit, I posted this on the Adobe Reader forum. There, I received the advice to repair the installation under the help menu, which I did and it fixed the problem.
Similar to your solution but found it's a fix found under "HELP" menu and not Add/Remove.
Thank you.

Can Yosemite read pdf files made in Snow Leopard?

can Yosemite read pdf files made in Snow Leopard?

Yup, restarted my system. First thing I did was open Firefox and try to open a .pdf.
There isn't an Acrobat icon in my system tray, and it's not showing up in my task manager, so is there another way of seeing if it's open?

Can't load pdf files after 10.4.11 update

Since installing the 4.10.11 update I can't read any more the pdf files downloaded in Safari 3 as the page turns completely gray (I can read pdf files only after downloading them to the desktop). I have browsed the 4.10.11 troubles and answers hoping to find a cue, but nothing of the like seems to have happened yet...
Is there something that I can do ?
Thank you for any help !

Have got exactly the same problem with Safari, but fine using Internet Explorer. Had a quick look on Adobe's update page - seems they only go up to 10.4.10... that may be problem???

Unable to open PDF files after update failed

I have not be able to open any of my many PDF files after last update. The update failed - error message "Error 1327.Invalid Drive:F\". Drive F is where I plug in my flash drive, there is nothing in drive F. I am working on my Ed.D and have 100's of PDF files pertaining to my research. I need to be able to open these files. I use a lot of these every day. I can't unstall the program -- get the same error message, can't repair it. Nothing works. Can anyone tell me what to do. I need a answer fast.

Some people in other posts have suggested to insert a USB drive into F drive.

How can I read pdf files in linux?

I know the pdf files can be read by Adodb acrobat,but i can not find the software for linux,How can I download the similar tools ?
Thanks for advance.

You can download AcrobatReader fro Linux from adobe.com like the versions of rother OS'es.
however if you want a nicer UI than Acrobat consider using gv with ghostscript. They might already be installed on your system, since they are part of most Linux distributions.
It's worthwhile to upgrade Ghostscript to the most recent version, othervise you will be unable to read pdf files that utilizes the newest fads from Adobe.

I can't read pdf files through Safari.

Just recently I cannot read pdf files from Safari. The file shows up as dark space. I don't know why? Guessing I changed something that caused it. Any ideas?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

Can't read PDF file from SD card!

I'm trying to read PDF files on my Life Drive, which has Adobe Reader 3.05. The files are stored on a sd card. I know these files are on it, as I can see these through Windows XP. When I launch the reader, all I get is a blank screen, with the square with the word all next to it, and beam and delete. There is no "open file" to tap on.

Hi,
Perhaps your pdf file is damaged or something. I think you can try a utility called Advanced PDF Repair to repair your PDF file. It works rather well for my corrupt PDF files. Its web address is http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/

Can't read pdf files from websites

I have tried to read pdf files on two different websites this morning and neither of them will display. I just get a black screen. I have updated to the latest version and have set Adobe Reader as my default reader. I have a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.7.5.
Please help. Very frustrated.

Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
Empty the trash.
Relaunch Safari.
PDFs will now open in the browser.

Security message means can't read PDF files.

I have recently downloaded Adobe reader 9 and since then I haven't been able to r
ead PDF files. An error message says "Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded". I have since uninstalled the program and reinstalled Adobe 8.1.2. and the same error message comes up. I have tried repairing the program, but no change. Previous to this I was reading PDF files without any problems. Very frustrating - please help if you can.

Hello there,
Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, you seem to be in the wrong forum: this one is for questions specific to Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com). I recommend re-posting your question to the Adobe Reader forum, where it is more likely to be answered satisfactorily:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_reader_forums/adobe_reader
You may also want to search the Reader forum; when I did a search on your error message, I found the following thread (which doesn't directly apply to your situation, but may at least be a clue for you):
http://forums.adobe.com/message/2719178#2719178
The error message that you're seeing may not have to do with Adobe Reader, but rather with your email client or computer's security settings; unfortunately, I can't provide any particular advice on how to rearrange those settings to allow for reading PDF files.
I'm sorry not to be able to offer more specific help; best of luck!
Kind regards,
Rebecca

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
