Cant open PDF's after being burned to a CD

I have an issue where a user is buring pdf files to a CD and when they try to open them is gives and error of not supported or currupt file. The weird thiing is that she can give it to another user and they can open it fine. Also if she burins another file then she can open the first one she tried opening earlier and couldn't. After she burns three files to the CD then she can open all three. She is on the latest version of Reader and so is the other user. I have tried repairing and reinstalling Reader with no luck, I have also tried turning off protected mode and have had the user try buring from the local drive and not a network share folder. Anyone have any ideas of what this could be?

It would depend on the burning software. I use Roxio, and you can set things to "read only" where they have to be copied from the disc before they can be opened. Usually I burn things to run from the disc.

  • Links to external files do nothing after being burned to disk

    I built a product catalog a while ago in CS4 and now I've had to edit it in InDesign CS5. With InDesign CS4, everything worked fine. The files were linked and then all the file were burned to disk, all the files worked on the disk (links, etc). I have since edited the files in InDesign CS5. I build the catalog, created all the links (interior within the same pdf, links to external pdfs and other file types). Everything works on the computer  but somehow fails after being burned to disk.
    My sequence  was like this:
    Set up product catalog last year with links and files, everything was fine and worked as expected.
    Opened the file, made my edits.
    Made links between the pdf's pages and from the pdf to external pdfs and videos etc. All of these links work in the pdf.
    Burn the files to a disk
    Some of the old links work
    All the links within the main pdf work
    None of the new links to external files work. I click the link and nothing happens. The paths are exactly the same as the previous version
    I have tried:
    Examining the links, everything is based on pseudo relative paths (last year it worked fine)
    Burning the disk on a Mac and a Windows XP
    Please help. Any and all help is very much apprecitated.

    I figured it out.
    I created the links in InDesign by making an interactive link to a file. When I open the file in Acrobat, the links work fine over the network. I burn to disk and the links no longer work.
    Problem: At some point, InDesign changes the "open file" hyperlink command in InDesign into a URL webpage request in Acrobat.
    Solution: So basically, I now have to go into the file in Acrobat and change all the buttons from "open web link" to "open file." It's only a product catalog with about 1,200 links that's due today.

  • Cant open Keynote file after reinstall Keynote.

    Cant open Keynote file after reinstall Keynote.
    File there: https://yadi.sk/d/Alxao3sydmdLQ
    What the problem? Who can help me?

    Tested your file and it is corrupt.
    My only suggestion is to find a backup copy of the file as Keynote files have the reputation of being unrecoverable once they become corrupt.

  • Cant open PDFs in Outlook

    Hi - suddenly cant open PDFs attached to emails in Outlook - get a message saying error in initialisation/access denied.  This has only happened since the latest updates (using XI) ... it works ok if I save the PDF to my hard drive and open from within the program but who has time?? can someone help me please??

    Hi Jim
    the usual reason, if it's all pdf's - is an adobe pdf plugin not working properly...
    look in both HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and the same folder within your Home/Library/
    & remove any pdf/adobe/acrobat plugins you see, then restart Safari
    adobe acknowledge the problem at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/908/cpsid_90885.html
    although their suggestion is to stay with safari 5.0.x and/or not update to lion
    You don't need it for most pdf's since safari's built-in pdf viewer will show them, or they can be downloaded & opened in adobe reader/acrobat - but if not seeing them within safari is a problem - try http://schubertit.com/pluginpdf/ after removing any adobe plugins.

  • FF 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links, after clicking on "open pdf" error message says file not supported or damaged. IE opens file all right. Please advice.

    Firefox 6.0 doesn't open pdf-links after clicking on "open pdf". I frequently need to do literature searches and I need to view pdf files in the browser. After clicking on the pdf - link of a file the main options are to open or download the pdf. Every time I try to open a pdf-file a blank page and an error message appears saying the file would not be supported or is damaged. IE, however, opens the file all right. I tried various changes in the security and cookie settings without success. Please advice.

    Hi SGckc,
    This document is almost certainly a dynamic XFA form. Unfortunately, our mobile Reader does not support displaying or filling such forms. The application that produces this form embeds this message into the document so that non-supportive viewers (like ours) will display this "error" page when the document opens. I do realize that this is confusing and I would like to add some additional detection to our Reader for this case. However, we've avoided doing this for fear of confusing users even further. Your feedback helps though. Hopefully we'll find a way to detect this case and present a better message to the user like: This form is not supported by the mobile version of the Adobe Reader. Please open and fill it on the non-mobile version of the Adobe Reader for Windows, Linux or Mac OSX.
    Thank you for contacting us!

    I have had a trial version of Acrobat X1 Pro - I have decided not to buy at this stage - for some time it has been conflicting with opening PDF docs after "saving as" from word 2007 - I uninstalled Pro X1 and now when I "save as" PDF from word 2007 to PDF it will save the document as a PDF but will not open the document to display after publishing - I have to got to where the file has been saved to view the new PDF document - this is really annoying - do I have to delete adobe reader and reinstall it - adobe needs to look at this conflict with acrobat pro as I have even gone it to properties and tried to have adobe reader as the default PDF program - the main issue is that I cannot view the PDF after publishing it from word 2007

  • My iPhone, iPad and G5 cant open PDF or Word attachments on emails generated from a specific PHP written system.

    I use iPhone, iPad and G5 receiving emails generated from a PHP written system hosted on 1and1.  I cant open PDF or Word attachments on any emails. The attachment's file names are displayed at the bottom of the email with no link.  No problem on Windows Outlook.   Is it me, 1and1 or the PHP system!? Does Apple OS handle email attachments differently to Windows?  Help!?

    Followed your instructions on my iPhone running 4.3.5 and my iPad which is running iOS 5 beta 4...  IT WORKS!
    Thanks a lot!

  • Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    There are can be reasons PDFs cannot be opened. For example, some forms created with Lifecycle Designer cannot be opened.
    Are you sure the file is a PDF? Can you open it in Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or PC? Does it give an error message when you try to open it?

    donut1950,
    Would you provide more information about your problem so that we can troubleshoot?
    What is the version of your Adobe Reader for Android?
    What is the version of Android OS?
    What is the mail app do you use to read email on Android?
    When you try to open an PDF attachment, do you see the dialog "Compete action using" with the Adobe Reader icon?  Does the dialog have "Always" and "Just Once"?
    Could you tell us the exact error message that you see when you try to open an PDF attachment?
    Does the problem happen with ONE particular PDF attachment?  Or does it happen with any PDF attachments all the time?
