Error opening pdf from published desktop

Citrix XenApp 5
Windows 2003
Adobe Reader 9 (Swedish version)
We do have the following issue:
On a published desktop opened from the webinterface you are unable to open a pdf file from an Intranet site. It doesn't matter if you try it with an admin account or a normal user account. The pdf is trying to open in a new browser window and an error occurs.
EM: There was a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. Quit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and try again.
When closing the error and browser window and click the pdf link on the site again, it opens in a new browser window.
Uncheck "display pdf in browser" in Adobe Reader is not an option for the customer.
When copying the shortcut to the pdf and paste it in a browser window it opens.
When connecting to the server with an admin account or a normal user account using RDP the issue does not occur. However it seems to be a Citrix issue and I have posted it on the Citrix forum, I post it here as well in the hope to get this solved..

Check the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Software\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe
Here check the default value. On an english machine, it has to be set to:
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe"
If you installed Adobe reader to a different directory, enter the path where "AcroRd32.exe" is to be found.

Error Opening PDF from IE

When I click on a PDF link in a website in Internet Explorer 6, I receive the following error: "There was an error opening this document. This file cannot be found." I can choose to save the file to disk and then it opens normally from there. All our computers here should be configured the same and this works properly on another computer.
This originally occurred using Adobe Reader 8.0.0, so I downloaded and installed 8.1.2 and it still is doing the same thing.
I tried right clicking the link to open in a new window but I am receiving the same message either way.
Any help would be appreciated.

Error message says need Adobe reader 8 or 9 installed to open pdfs from web pages yet Reader 9 is alredy installed on computer. Is this a 64 bit ossue although I am sure I did not have this problem prior to a replacement hard drive being installed.

What is your operating system, browser?
What is the exact message you are getting?

How can I solve this problem?

// I got this from an Action (I�m using Struts)
java.sql.Blob file=(java.sql.Blob)request.getAttribute("PDFfile");
String filename=(String)request.getAttribute("filename");
try{
int iLength = (int)(file.length());
response.setHeader("Content-type", "application/pdf");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=\""+filename+"\"");
response.setHeader("Expires","0");

Acrobat reader XI cannot open pdfs from IE9

My pc has IE9, windows 7. After I installed Acrobat reader XI, I can no longer open pdfs from a secure website. Can anyone help?

"Internal Error Occurred" appears when .pdf is opened from Outlook 2010 email
I am absolutely pulling out my hair over this one!!
PC/Win 7 64bit/Adobe XI/Office 2010
I have tried Uninstalling and re-installing
I have tried using an adobe software removal tool
I have tried modifying the security settings in reader
I've tried running repair on MS Office
If you open the .pdf from an email directly, it opens Reader with the error "Internal Error Occurred"
If you drag and drop the .pdf onto the desktop, and then open it, it opens.
If you open Adobe Reader FIRST, then open the .pdf from the email, it opens fine.
ONLY when you open a .pdf from an email with Adobe Reader closed (so Outlook is asking AR to open first, and then present the .pdf) is it behaving this way.
Hypothesis: Outlook 2010 does not like to open Adobe Reader.
SO....tell me all of you brilliant geniuses? How do I solve this puzzle and become an end user's hero?

Unable to open pdf from some particular shared folder which is not in domain

Encountered a strange issue here.
We have copuple of users who login with Citrix session.
They are able to open pdf from all the shared folders but not one which is not in domain.
User are able to open all other files viz. doc, excel, notepad and so from that particular folder.
Issue with all the pdf files and not only one particular file.
Double clicking the pdf file starts the process AcroRd32.exe but the file does not open.
If an already running AcroRd32.exe process is there (means if Adobe Reader is already open), then it's possible to open the pdf files from that folder.
Moreover, came across one strange thing.
I created a shortcut to one of the pdf file from that folder within the same folder.
And it was possible to open pdf file from that shortcut but not directly :S
Gives error: "Acrobat failed to connect DDE server" after about 20 mins if we try to open file directly.
Googled a bit and found that issue can be resolved by navigating to
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\acrobat\shell\open\ddeexec\application and changing the Key "AcroviewA10" to "AcroviewR10
But when I navigated to the mentioned registry there was no AcroviewA10 but instead it was just Acroview.
Adobe Reader version: 9.5.5
I will be really grateful if somebody can provide solution for this.

What happens when you open the Adobe app, then tell it to open the file?
How big are the attachments? There are limitations to the size allowed to be sent:
Email Provider
Size Limit
Gmail
25Mb
Outlook
20Mb
Yahoo
25Mb
Are you sending the files to yourself? Not sure how you are emailing files from a website...
Are the PDF's password-protected, or some kind of copyrighted eBook perhaps? Can you email other files successfully, or are PDF's the only files that don't work?
Perhaps using a free Cloud service as an intermediary might work better.

Can't open PDFs from Outlook Access denied

We are trying to open PDFs from Outlook in Reader XI. Even after disabling protected mode, continue to receive the message "There was an error opening this document. Access denied.". Any suggestions?
Thanks

A. Fix One PC
Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader X
Go to: Edit > Preferences...
Click on "General" in the left pane.
Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
You will prompted with a dialog box to remind you to close the application for the change to go into effect. Click Yes.
Click OK to save your change.
Exit Adobe Reader
B. Fix Several PCs in Your Organization
Following the above steps aren't practical if you have Adobe Acrobat installed on 1,000+ computers in 30 regional offices! Push this registry setting using your standard software deployment software.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\Privileged]
"bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000

Installed Pro 9 and Reader 9 now cannot open pdf from web, but can from an email?

Installed Both Adobe Acrobat 9 professional and reader 9 yesterday on co worker machine. Went to open a pdf attachement in email no problem. Went to web to download and open a pdf and will not let her, giving co worker the error message need reader 8 or 9 to open this document!
have unistalled 9 reader and reinstalled same problem.
So then uninstalled reader 9 and can now open pdf from the web
My machine has both on and no problems.
Thank YOU for your help!!

It may be that you will need to uninstall Reader and Repair Acrobat after the uninstall. Adobe does not recommend the installation of both products. Since you have already done the uninstall and things work fine with just Acrobat, leave things alone as that is the recommended installation.

Unable to open PDF from IE web pages

Windows 7, IE 11, Adobe Reader XI
I have no problem opening same when using Chrome so there must be some setting that I've failed to find in IE. I've reinstalled AR several times and adjusted as many IE settings as I've found suggestions for in the forum and elsewhere. Obviously, it's a real pain to have to go to Chrome every time I want to save a statement.
What would you suggest I try next?

Thanks to those who made suggestions. THE PROBLEM IS NOW, magically, FIXED.
Yesterday I, once again, opened AR from the desktop icon. Then I selected Repair Adobe Reader Installation and followed the steps to do that. I have successfully opened and saved all online the PDF statements that I have tried since.
Obviously the problem was with AR 11.0.10 and the repair (finally) worked.
I just noticed, as I mentioned above the installed version is now different than the version I was having the problem with.

Access Denied Bug Opening PDFs from the DFS in Reader X

Hi,
Do you have any timelines for when a bugfix will be released for the Access Denied problems when opening PDFs from a DFS share with Protected Mode enabled? We were hoping to make use of the new sandboxing technology within the corporate environment, as recent issues with security vulnerabilities (in Adobe Reader 9, the authplay.dll issues) would be mitigated by the technology. However, as the Protected Mode does not work when opening from the DFS there is no point in moving to Adobe Reader X from 9.4.1 at the moment.
It would be good to have a release date so that we can start taking advantage of the technology as soon as we are able to.

There's no dates, or indications of when this will be done. Thanks for your useful assistance though.

Safari hijacked by Adobe Reader - cant open pdfs from Safari

I would greatly appreciate any help cant seem to find this exact problem elsewhere.
I have a Macpro (new tower) running 10.9.4
A few days ago I received an email from a trusted friend which included a link. I followed the link which asked me to download Adobe Reader which i foolishly did. Since then when I try to open a PDF from Safari I get the following message "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User Licence Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser"
Please note I can still open PDFs from the Finder and other browser's (e.g. Opera) also allow me to download
I went to the Adobe site and downloaded Reader but it wont let me complete the installation. I fear my Mac has been infected by a trojan etc and can't seem to find out how to get around this.
So far I have tried
1) went to /Library/Internet Plug-ins - but nothing there
2) reinstall of Mavericks
Any help appreciated. I suppose a clean reinstall would help but don't want to do that just yet

Open a Finder Window.
Click on the Go in the menu bar.
Press on option on the keyboard, "Library" will appear. Click on that.
In the new Finder Window that it opens up, or the one that you have opened already. It'll show that particular folder. In that folder is Internet Plug-ins.
Check to see if Adobe is in there. If so, delete it and reboot.
I honestly thought it was in the same folder that you tried, but I don't remember at the moment. So my instructions are just a shot in the dark.

Opening PDFs from gMail account in iBooks

I've previously opened PDFs from gMail messages using iBooks but today, for some unknown reason, I cannot open any new PDF file attachment larger than 200k.
iPod Touch 8GB (2nd generation) using iOS4.1- Still have 5.7GB available so I'm not sure why certain size files won't open.
I've even tried using Safari w/ gMail account - In both cases, as soon as I try to open the PDF attachments w/ iBooks, the display drops out without transferring to Ibooks as it used to do.
Message was edited by: MacNoob0909

Tried resetting - No joy.
When I tried to open the attachment w/ "iBooks", the iPod switched to iBooks and an "Untitled" file showed on the bookshelf momentarily then the display dropped out and returned to the "Home" screen. No joy there.
Even tried opening w/ "Quick Look" - Again, no joy. Just a dropout and back to the "Home" screen.
Looks like I may have to do a total reset - Now iBooks loads w/ "Untitled" file displaying and then the display drops w/ a return to the home screen - In the process of total reset as I write this - Will update after I do a restore. - Its going to take at least 2 hours for reset/restore operation.
