Cannot Synchronize pdf files - ActiveSync 4.5.0 and Reader 2.0

ActiveSync 4.5.0 and Reader 2.0
I recieve an 'Unresolved Item' error whenever I try to sync with my XP desktop, if there are any .pdf files to be synched.
Under tools, Advanced Tools File Conversion Properties I have discovered
there is an entry for .pdf files on the tab Desktop to Device. However there is no entry on the Device to Desktop tab, nor does There seem to be any way to add a Device to Desktop Conversion entry
This problem first occured with Reader 1.0, I have since uninstalled 1.0 and upgraded to 2.0, bu the problem persists.
Thanks in advance for your help

@rawadhalawi:
Did it ever come to your mind what the tagging of PDFs is good for?
I mean, if you try to read an untagged PDF on your mobile device, the experience is very much like not reading it.
So, the problem IS the tagging. Switching it off is the workaround, but not the solution.
I have the same problem. So far, I was not able to solve it.
I completely deinstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 2.0 to no avail. Other persons (see above) even destroyed and recreated the relationship between the PC and the mobile device to no avail.
Is there anyone out there who ever solved the problem?
Please post here!
Greetings....

  • Hello. My safari (and i keep it updated) cannot open PDF files. Should i install Adobe Reader and which version????? I have Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9

    My safari (and i keep it updated) cannot open PDF files.Should i install Adobe Reader and which version????/ I have Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9
    Please help me!!!!

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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, move to the Trash 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. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
    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 print scanned pdf files  Xerox 3450  Adobe Pro and Reader 9

    I have a user that cannot print PDF's made up of scanned images to a network printer.
    The job goes to the printer and spools up but hangs at either 64kb or 255kb and then errors out.
    Even if I print just one page, it does the same thing.
    Folks with Acrobat Pro 8 or Reader 8 can print the same file to the same printer with no problems.
    OS: XP
    Network Printer: Xerox Phaser 3450 PS
    Adobe:  Reader 9.1.3 and  Acrobat Professional 9.1.3
    I have tried the following:
    On the Xerox 3450 PS Printer:
    - disabling Advanced Printing Options
    - changing Post script options to: EPS, optimize for speed, optimize for portablity
    - reloading the printer drivers
    - unmapping/remapping the printer on the customer's system.
    In the Reader and Acrobat Pro print options:
    - print only Document rather than Document and Markups
    - print as image
    - unchecked 'convert to true type1'
    - changed options to Send for each page, send by range,
    - tried using Language level 2
    - reinstalling Adobe Reader 9
    This happens once the customer is upgraded to Adobe Reader 9.  If I disable the 'Advanced Printer options' he can print OCR/Text PDF files but cannot print even a single page Scanned image PDF file. The spooler hangs at 255kb and then the print job errors out.
    I confirmed this  same issue on multiple machines and on other Xerox 3450 printers on multiple print servers.  It is the same for Adobe Reader 9 and Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
    The machines and  users are in different parts of the country on different print servers but the symptoms are the same: after being upgraded to Adobe Reader 9.1.3 or Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.1.3 they cannot send certain PDF files (so far just scanned image files) to a Xerox 3450 PS network printer.
    Any suggestions on what to try next would be appreciated.

    This problem plagued me for several weeks, until I found a solution that has allowed me to print scanned documents as quickly as a text document.
    I have confirmed this worked on several network X3450 printers using Adobe Reader 9.1.3 and Adobe Acrobat Professional v9.1.3
    In the Reader and Acrobat Pro print options:
        Click on the Advanced button and uncheck "Print as image" if it's checked.
        Click on "Let printer determine colors" to enable this option
        Click OK and Print.
    After making this change, the document queued up and printed as fast a any text document printed.
    I had a single page scanned text document which was about 19 KB, but when sent to the printer, the spooler grew from 10 MB to 50 MB to 80 MB, until an error occurred. Like you I tried many combinations until one worked. Then it was a matter of figuring out which setting was primarily responsible for allowing it to print quickly.
    Most likely the problem is with the raster image processor (RIP) within Adobe Reader and Acrobat. By selecting the option to "Let the printer determine colors", it passes that part of the processing over to the RIP within the printer. Since the X3450 is not a color printer, the information is easily converted to grayscale and printed.
    I'm still trying to absorb the information in the articles I have read so far, and I welcome any discussion about this from those more knowledgeable than I.
    I hope this fix works for you as it did for me. I made a lot of happy customers once they were able to print since most of their documents are scanned rather than created with Acrobat.

  • Cannot print PDF files on Mac OS X

    Hi,
    since some update from Reader 8.1 to 8.1.2 I cannot print PDF files anymore. Meanwhile I installed Reader 9, but with no luck.
    If I crank up the preferences I get the error "Failed to load an application resource (internal error)." ... maybe there is something wrong with the installation, but even an reinstall doesnt fix it.
    If I try to print I get only the message "The document could not be printed" and then "There were no pages selected to print." ... no matter what PDF I try to print.
    The Apple Preview works without any problems, so the PDFs should be good.
    Can anyone help me on this ... its really frustrating.
    Best Regards
    --Michael

    I had this same problem. I did a clean install of OS X 10.5.6 to an USB hard drive, installed Adobe Reader 9, and tried printing. It worked fine. Then I cloned the external drive back onto the internal drive and it failed with the same no pages selected problem.
    It turns out that my filesystem on my internal hard drive is case sensitive, but the external hard drive had the default case-insensitive file system.
    To fix, do this:
    Go get yourself an external firewire or usb hard drive at least as big as your internal drive. Plug it in and use Disk Utility.app (under /Applications/Utilities) to Erase it and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". The download CarbonCopyCloaner, a free utility that can copy an entire drive. Use CCC to clone your Macintosh HD to the external drive.
    Now that you have a backup drive, go to System Preferences and choose Startup Disk. Pick the external drive as the the startup drive. Reboot and check that your printing works properly now.
    If that fixed your problem, while you are booted from the external drive, use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" not "Mac OS Extended (Journaled) case-sensitive". Then use CCC to copy everything back. Reboot.

  • New problem for me    cannot open pdf  file on my computer

    cannot open pdf files   tried to download new adobe reader w/o successs

    What is your operating system?  Reader version?
    What exactly means "cannot"?

  • I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can using another Viewer

    I cannot open pdf files from one supplier when using Adobe Reader but I can open it if using Google PDF viewer or another viewer. The Adobe reader gives the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when I try to open the file. The version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.7, however I have tried other versions and they all fail the same way.  I have tested on a number of different PC's in different networks and all fail using Adobe Reader but work using alternate viewer. Also the PC's will open a PDF from any other source.

    Newer Reader versions are more strict than older versions (and other PDF viewers).  If certain minimum requirements are not met, Reader will tell you that the PDF is damaged.  This can happen when a document was created with software that does not adhere to PDF standards, or when the file was damaged during a download or email transmission.
    You should contact the creator of these PDFs.

  • Cannot view pdf files in browser

    brand new imac cannot view PDF files in browser but the PDF's can be viewed if downloaded. All the data in the PDF online have question marks instead, maybe a missing font issue?

    Have Adobe Reader installed? If so, disable the AdobePDFViewer.plugin resident in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins., restart, and try again. For font-associated issues, peruse Font Management in OS X

  • Help - "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed."

    Hello,
    I searched this site and google for this error terminology and come up dry.  I support a user who has been for years using Acrobat 5 (yes, I know...) to read files in a client DB program, as well as other PDF files on their PC.  In the last week or so, they have started gatting this error "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed." any time they attempt to open a PDF file attached to an email (via Outlook).
    It is my understanding that they cannot upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat because of limitations of their client software, but had not previously had any issues viewing PDF notes from the DB, and PDF attachments in their email.
    I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, as well as tried using Adobe Reader 7 & 9 in conjunction with Acrobat to try to get around this issue, but have not been successful.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jesse

    I don't have an answer to your technical problem. The product I assume is Acrobat that you are talking about (based on the post title), Adobe is the company name. This is a good place to ask questions on Acrobat if folks can figure out what you are talking about. They will ask for the product version number (like AA9.3.3), operating system, and other applications if appropriate. Also, just what you are doing that generates the message.
    As for Adobe, you are not likely to get an answer from them here in the user forum. You will be lucky if you can get an answer if you can contact them and not be on hold for more than an hour (sorry, this is why a lot of folks end up in the forum).
    So, to help others try to answer your question, what are the products and versions involved? What OS? What are you doing when the message comes up.

  • I cannot open pdf files in safari.  It tells me first character is invalid.  I have deleted plug-ins and reinstalled program.  HELP

    cannot open PDF files in safari.  It tells me first character is invalid - I have deleted plug-ins and reinstalled the program.

    HI..
    If you are using Adobe Reader ...
    Try uninstalling the current copy of Adobe Reader first.
    Best to use a utility to do this to make sure all the associated files are removed as well >  Download AppCleaner for Mac - Uninstall your apps easily. MacUpdate.com
    Then reinstall >  http://get.adobe.com/reader/
    Quit then relaunch Safari to test.

  • Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working

    Cannot open PDF files with Reader XI message appears Adobe Reader has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working

    Which Operating system you are using?
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)] and then try to open the file.

  • I cannot ope PDF files that are within a web link.  Neither Safari nor Firefox will work.  If I receive a PDF file as an email attachment, I can open it with either Adobe or Preview.  I'm running 10.6.8 on an iMac.

    I'm going to re-state this.  Several weeks ago, I had installed Security Update 2012-004 on my iMac.  I'm running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  Immediately afterwards, my Mail 4.6 was GONE.  Mail 4.2 was there, but the system would not open it.  The Apple Support Communites quickly solved my problem.  The problem lay within the Update.  Now, I cannot open PDF files that are contained within a website, i.e. a lunch menu that is on a restaurant website.  This happens on both Safari and Firefox.  If someone sends me an email with an attached PDF file, I can open the file with either Adobe or Preview.  This is happening only on my iMac.  My MacBook Pro, also running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 has not experienced either the first or second problem.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    Does this help with Firefox?

  • 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.

  • Cannot open pdf files with Firefox's built-in pdf viewer

    This just started (I think) with Firefox 37.01. This is on Win7-X64. I cannot open pdf files with the Firefox built-in pdf viewer. If I click on the file or try to open it from within Firefox, it brings up a "opening filename.pdf" message. If I select the "Open with" radio button as 'Firefox (default),' it just keeps looping on this process; it never opens. In Tools => Options => Applications, Portable Document Format (PDF) is indicated as 'Preview in Firefox.' I've never had any other PDF viewer installed on this computer. I've tried disabling all plug-ins and extensions, but it still doesn't work. I searched for solutions but haven't found any for this specific issue.
    Thanks for the help.
