Cannot open linked file

I have created a Click Box that should open an MSWord
document when clicked, however, nothing happens. I have tried
saving this document as a Word document, and htm file and a pdf
file. I have the document saved in the same location as where I
have my published files.
When I publish this project as a Flash project, I get the
following error:
The files/projects listed below are linked to the open
project. The linked files/projects may require exporting.
(The path pointing to my linked file shows here)
It is also important to copy all referenced files and
projects with their corresponding HTML files to the output folder.
Any ideas? This shouldn't be this difficult. I'm sure I'm
just missing a simple step. Can anyone help me?

  • When exporting Captivate 5 project as pdf, cannot open linked files (which are also pdfs)

    I am a Captivate novice, using version 5 on Mac. I am thrilled that my project can be published as a pdf. Everything works great except the interactive buttons, which are supposed to open various small pdfs. I placed the linked documents in the same folder with captivate project. I used just the filename of the document as the link. I can open the links with no problem when I open the SWF from firefox, but when I try to open them from my exported PDF (with Acrobat 9 pro), no luck. This is really bumming me out, because being able to hand the customer an interactive PDF is cool. I could just duplicate the same effect in Acrobat Pro Extended, but I find the Captivate workspace much faster and easier than creating interactivity with Acrobat. Plus, it is so cool to add the audio and animated effects in Captivate. Not so easy in Acrobat. Help??!?! Thank you.

    Thanks for the update! No pressure, but I'm using the trial version while I decide if Captivate will be the solution I need to create these multimedia pdfs. Is there any sort of timeframe on the resolution of the issue I posted? Should I expect to wait until Captivate 6, or should I expect an update to 5 to solve the problem? Just need to know how to move forward. I apologize in advance if I am out of line for asking timeframe questions. I'm new to support forums. I  never posted before because I was always able to get answers by researching discussions. Your reply is so helpful to me because I can barely afford the $800 for Cap 5. If it can't do what I need it to do, I will save the money and stick with creating interactivity in PDFs through Acrobat's brute force (but reliable) methods...but Captivate is SO COOL...oh woe.

  • I am running InDesign CS5.5 and trying to open an In Design File but getting an error message. " Cannot open the file "PDavidLCover.indd". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file

    I am running InDesign CS5.5 and trying to open an In Design File but getting an error message. " Cannot open the file "PDavidLCover.indd". Adobe InDesign may not support the file format, a plug-in that supports the file format may be missing, or the file me be open in another application."Please help I really need to get this file open.

    Since you've shown us the folder contents it's a good bet it isn't in use (no lock file). And it doesn't look like the file is mis-named as there doesn't seem to be anything else there that would be the .indd file (but just in case, open it in TextEdit and paste the first few lines here so we can see what the file header says), so the most likely case is the file is damaged. Is that on a removable device of some sort?
    You can try the tool at Repair corrupt InDesign Adobe files on Mac OS X  or send me a link to the file by private message and I'll try the recovery tool I have for Windows.

  • "Extraction Failed: Cannot Open Output File" error message when installing new drivers

    Hello, I'm trying to install new drivers for my HP Photosmart C4385 Printer.  I downloaded the full feature drivers for Windows XP 32-bit, and when I start to install (extract), I get the error message:
    Extraction Failed
    Cannot Open Output File
    And the process closes.  It happens at about 85% extraction every time.
    Any idea why?  I called HP but since it is out of warranty they wanted money, which I think as absolutely ridiculous - won't even give me basic support??  Poor, poor customer service.
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hi,
    If you haven't still got the  Full Feature software installer, download it from the link below and save it to your Desktop.  If you already have it, place it on your Desktop.
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software10/COL20274/mp-53147-4/100_228_PS_AIO_02_Full_USW_enu_NB.exe
    Make sure the Printer is disconnected from your PC.
    Download and install 7-ZIP.  Once installed, right click on the software installer for your printer, select 7-Zip and choose extract files, then click Ok.
    Open the newly extracted folder and double click the setup application to start the installation ( the setup application will probably have the same icon as the original software installer you downloaded ).  Connect the printer to your PC when the software asks.
    Hope this helps.
    Best wishes,

  • After activating "Click-to-play" plug-ins, I cannot open pdf files.

    In the latest release of Firefox, information about how to prevent plug-ins from loading automatically was in the release notes. I activated this in about:config. (Click-to-play).
    After that, I cannot open pdf files! When I click on a link all I get is an empty window. Reloading page don't help.
    What I can do, is to click on the button next to the awesome bar and set that plug-ins will always load automatically for this page. Then the pdf file loads.
    Another work around is to copy the link and paste it in IE.
    Is this a bug with "click-to-play"?

    Thanks cor-el. I have read the various bug reports and it is indeed the same. Has been known for a while...
    Anyway, I find no mention of the work-around: "Click on the button next to the awesome bar and set that plug-ins will always load automatically for this page."
    I don't know if there is a place to give that feedback.

  • Indesign cannot open "old files" CS6.

    I was supposed to do a few adjustments in a project, i have opened it before and been working in it alot.. (2 months since last time i was working with this project) When i was supposed to do some minor fixes etc on this project yesterday i cannot open the file. The project it self are only on 8900 kB. What to do???? I can open my recently "newly" made and used projects.... Ive tryed some other projects that was also old, all between 2-6 months.. And it is just randomly witch i can open and witch i "Cannot open"..
                             This is the error for CS6.
                             This is the error for CS 5.5.
    If you got some suggestions scream out! Will try it all that have worked before.. (If someone have had this same problem atleast!)
    Sincerely,
    David

    First, a tip: Try manually breaking the links to the file by moving that document you want to open to your desktop or another directory or such and then try opening them... (corrupt image previews and/or images can then be largely elminated as a potential cause)
    As @Peter mentioned, we (Markzware - link here to how that works) can likely fix this file. Interesting notes from @jongware above. Without having seen this file, our research shows there are various reasons an InDesign file can head south and corrupt or crash on you. Just like a doctor can not always say what caused the problem, there are some basic steps we all should take. For instance, OS up to date, InDesign using the latest update available, enough disk space and scartch disk space for heavy Adobe design operations. Here is a list of some of the most common issues with bad INDD documents:
    * Corrupt Font(s) (or corrupt font caches - see below)
    * Corrupt Image(s)
    * Power Failure
    * Placing images via drag-and-drop from an Internet page
    * Working on an InDesign file over a network or on a remote server
    Here is a video on how to tackle the font caches of InDesign, which is good to do once and a while anyway:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nf5ZuiaYgus
    For checking individual font files (fonts are like mini apps really), we recommend either FontExplorer XPro or Extensis Suitcase Fusion 4, with the later perhaps the more popular of the two.
    You can contact me on [email protected] if you need assistance with us trying to recover your bad InDesign CS file further. We also have a PDF to InDesign conversion tool called PDF2DTP if you have a PDF.
    Friendly Regards,
    David Dilling of Markzware

  • Cannot open pdf files in Firefox.

    I cannot open pdf files in Firefox. (I can in Chrome).
    I tried Menu - Preferences - PDF - Use Adobe Acrobat Professional. Also tried the same with PDF Browser Plugin 2.4.4
    Clicking on a PDF link just opens a blank page.

    When I enter about:preferences#applications <Enter> in the address bar, then for PDF it shows:
    pdf File (application/x-download) ... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
    pdf File (application/x-pdf) .... Use Adobe Acrobat Professional
    Portable Document Format (PDF) ... Save File'''
    I would like all PDF's to open in Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.
    Right now none of the PDF's open at all, so opening in Firefox or any other viewer would be preferred over not showing up at all.

    Mac users using Word 2004 who receive a Word 2008 for Mac, (or Word 2007 for Windows) document, will not be albe to read this without having the Open XML Converter installed, which can be downloaded from Microsoft.
    Go to this page:

    and click on the right under Most Popular, 'Open XML File Format Converter for Mac 1.0.2'
    This opens a window at the bottom of the page. Scroll that to the bottom and click on English.dmg, and it will download for you as a disk image, which can be installed in the usual way.

  • Excel cannot open the file because the file format or file extension is not valid

    pls help 

    Hi,
    In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
    Which Office version are you using? Office 2013 or other.
    Did the issue occur with the special file or every file?
    Then, based on your error message, this problem has been confirmed to be caused by malware on the affected machine. There are now two known variants of malware which causes this problem: Win32/Crilock.A and
    Win32/Buma!rts. They have both been identified as a new family of ransomware.
    In order to clean your machine, run Microsoft Safety Scanner (http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx). If infected, Safety Scanner should clean the virus from
    the system, however it will not repair corrupted files. You will still need to restore those from a backup. A detailed analysis of affected files submitted to Microsoft for investigation has revealed the files are encrypted with a private
    and public key. The files cannot be recovered without the private key, which is more than likely held by the attacker. The premise of ransomware is such that if a person pays the ransom the key is provided to "unlock" the files.

    Hi
    When I try and run SAPMMC on the desk top I get the error :
    'MMC cannot open the file C:\Windows\SAPMMC.MSC'
    this is because the file does not exists, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of the MMC'
    I have full permissions on this server, has anyone seen this error before?
    The file C:\Windows\SAPMMC.MSC does exist, infact there is a .1, .2, .3 and .4 version in C:\Windows.

  • Cannot open the file '(unknown)'

    Hi,
    I am getting an error when I try to test an asp page (vb)
    with a recordest in it.
    The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file
    '(unknown)'.
    When I double-click the recordset in dreamweaver and click
    test it works fine though.
    I haven't got the db open elsewhere and don't think it's
    read-only, so I can't work it out.
    Help!
    Thanks, Mark.

    Hi,
    After the "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the
    file
    '(unknown)'." does it then say "File already in use" or
    something similar?
    If you open an ASP/VB page in DW, that has a link to your
    database
    (Recordsets), it can sometime cause the temp yourdatabase.ldb
    to be created.
    When you shut the page down, for some reason DW doesn't
    remove the ldb which
    means that when you test the page under localhost it will not
    open because
    the database is "already in use".
    The only way to solve this is to close DW and re-open.
    Tedious I know, but
    this is something that has been a problem since UD4 and I'm
    not sure if it's
    been fixed yet.
    Check for the existence of an .ldb file...that'll be your
    problem I'm sure.

  • Cannot open DNG files in CS3 or Lightroom?

    When I convert RAW files from my new DMC-LF1 camera to DNG, I can not open the files in CS3 or Lightroom. Isn't DNG supposed to be a universal format?
    I do not have problems with converted DNG files from my Nikon cameras.

    I use the free Adobe DNG Converter vers. 8.1 der supporter mit Panasonic DMC-LF1. I just downloaded this version and now am able to open my Panasonic DNGs in Lightroom, but not in CS3. There are no problems opening my Nikon DNGs in both programs.
    This certainly leaves the problem about DNG as a universal format lasting far out in the future, doesn't matter what camera the file came from.
