DF files.

Hi all,
My system is a DELL Alienware with Windows 7.
I have done the following steps:
Downloaded 9.3 and it would display when I started the program.
Adobe Reader9.3 has stopped working.
I uninstalled 9,3, rebooted, redownload and installed.
Same result.
Any suggestions?

I cannot open or print pdf. files with Adobe on my windows 8

I have downloaded Adobe Acrobat but can only read files not print them - even when I save them.

Problem resolved by uninstalling Windows 8 reader to allow Adobe as the default reader.

Cannot open a downloaded pdf file..."The file couldn't be opened because it isn't in the correct format."

I have had this problem several times lately: I cannot open a downloaded pdf file. The error message reads: "The file couldn't be opened because it isn't in the correct format." But, of course, it is a pdf file.

My MacBook Pro (2.5 Ghz Intel Core i5) is running OS X 10.9.4. Here is what happens when reading an online user manual that I want to save to the Desktop and read later as a PDF file on my iPad or phone. With Safari I will select "Export As PDF" and the file shows up on the desktop. Even after multiple trials, there will be a dialogue box indicating the file cannot be opened. If I check the file info, the size is "zero." Trying to save the file as a pdf using the Print menu yields the same results. I have tried both of these methods using Preview, Adobe Reader, and PDF Pen Pro. This strange behavior also occurred several weeks ago and I finally abandoned the effort. But when the same thing happens twice, it becomes an issue that needs to be resolved.

I have just upgraded to OSX 10.6.8 and now I cannot open or save PDF files from the internet. I get a dialogue box saying the QuickTime plugin has failed. I have tried to download the latest plugin but this doesn't work. Can anyone help?

I have just upgraded to OSX 10.6.8 and now I cannot open or save PDF files from the internet using either Safari or Firefox. I get a dialogue box saying the QuickTime plugin has failed. Can anyone help?

Is this what you downloaded: iTunes 10.7?
When the update fails what if any error report do you get, specifically? Please do this before trying again:
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.

How can I open and print PDF files?

How can I open and print PDF files?

Please HELP! i cannot open any Adobe PDF files anymore. i DL the new version XI and since no files h

Please HELP! i cannot open any Adobe PDF files anymore. i DL the new version XI and since no files have opened - so i recently uninstalled it and re-installed adobe reader 9 but i am having the same problem - no pdf files open and its really causing a problem as i can not open any work documents. please help

Three things to try (Reader XI)...
Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
Can you open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

Since upgrading my Mac OS X from 10.6.8 to 10.8 and 10.9, I cannot open newly downloaded pdf files. Please help! Thanks.

Hi,
Since upgrading my Mac OS X from 10.6.8 to firstly, 10.8 and then, 10.9, I have not been able to open new pdf files on either Preview or Acrobat Reader.
I can still open previously downloaded pdf files but not new ones.
I can still open new pdf files online. However, when I save a pdf to my computer, I cannot open them anymore.
I upgraded to 10.8 a couple of weeks ago and then accepted a free upgrade to Maverick (10.9) this morning. I was hoping that by upgrading to Maverick, I would be able to open pdf files again but alas, that is not the case.
I really need to open pdf files as a matter of urgency as I do this on a daily basis. I am not a computer whizz so if anyone can help find a simple yet effective solution to my problem, that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

When I try to open a downloaded pdf file, I receive this message:
"It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
Yet, when I try to open pdf files downloaded whilst still using Mac OS X 10.6.8, they open as normal. So what is the problem, please?
I have deleted Adobe Reader and re-installed it. Yet, it follows the same pattern as above. The same is true of Preview. It's really frustrating because it means I can only open new pdf files using Safari (so I have to be online to do this). I need to be able to open pdf files when I'm offline as well.
Thanks.

Cannot open a layered pdf file (64mb only) inside PS CS5 "not enough memory"

Hi!
I cannot seem to open a pdf file inside PS CS5, I also created the file some 3 months ago, saving all the phostoshop layers in it. But now I can't open it inside the photoshop to retrieve the layers as I will be doing some changes. Unfortunately, the original psd file is gone for good. When I try to open it, it alsways says "not enough memory", i try to increase the ram to 4g, play with scratch disk setting but still no success. Any ideas? I can send the pdf file over and see if it open up in your machine. Please take note that the pdf file displays perfectly on a reader.
Please help. thanks

HI, Myfreelance,
Unfortunately this is not the right forum to ask such a question, so there won't be a way to get an answer here.
Might I suggest a Photoshop forum such as:

Cannot Open Acrobat XI PDF files

I installed Acrobat XI on a Windows 7 Pro computer.
I can create PDF files on that computer as well as view/edit the files. When I send the files to another computer, I receive an error message 'file is damaged and cannot be opened'
This has occurred on about ten different test files.
I have sent test files to four other computers using different OS's and all have the same error message.
Any thoughts as to the issue?

I used MS Remote Desktop to log into the server which created the pdf document.
I copied and pasted the PDF file to my local computer. From there, I emailed the document out to other computers.
So, my local computer and four other computers get a 'damaged file' message
I have one person report to me that he could open and view the PDF file when using Cloud-based MS Outlook.
But, he cannot view the file on a local computer.
We have tried various readers including: Adobe XI reader, Firefox and a few others.

HT1338 cannot open or view pdf files???

i cannot view pdf files on my mac when i try to open them. Can anyone help?

Is it a single PDF file, or any PDF file?
You should be able to open using Adobe Reader or Preview.

Cannot open embedded Adobe PDF files in Safari 5.1

I am disgusted to find that Apple has removed Safari's ability to open embedded PDF files in Safari 5.1. This is a huge mistake by Apple, and the only work around from Adobe was to use a different browser.
Get on the ball, Apple!!! Fix your MISTAKES!!!

Ah...this is an Adobe issue, not Apple.

Cannot open password protected .pdf files?

I have an ebook for school that requires a username/password combo to open. It of course opens on my computer, but when I try to open it on my Galaxy III, it says there was an error opening the document. It also will not open with my Galaxy Tab 7.0. I have the most updated versions on both devices.
Can I not open this type of file with Adobe Reader?
Please help!! I need to be able to open this ebook on the go!
Thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Michael for your speedy reply. I have been reading on the Adobe site and I figured that much. I buy knitting patterns and crochet patterns at a cost and I download and print them. I 'save them to My Documents', some of the older ones I can bring up and print again but it has been just recently that the new ones will not allow me to view them. I know you can get password breaker software. Do you think it is a good practise to have such software in your computer? Thanks again. JenonDenman.
