Error "The file appears to use a new format..." with Full version 6 and Reader v9.1

Hi,
Environment: XP Pro sp3, Acrobat 6.0, Acrobat Reader 9.1, Internet Explorer 7.0
Eventhough I have my Reader v.9.1 set up as default application for PDF files in the file association setup, if I click on a PDF link in Internet Explorer, it wants to open it with the full version of Acrobat v6.0 and I get this popup message:
"The file appears to use a new format that this version of Acrobat does not support.
It may not open or display correctly. Adobe recommends that you upgrade to the latest version of our Acrobat products…."
I am puzzled why Internet Explorer ignores the file association setup in Windows Explorer.
Can someone assist me to figure this out? if the solution involves messing with the registry, or registering/deregistering dll files, that's fine with me.
Geza

The problem is that those applications share resources and will fight over them.
It is not recommended or supported to have both on a Windows machine.

  • [HTML]SignTool Error: The file is being used by another process.

    Hello,
    I receive this error from building a JavaScript app on a build server:
    SignTool Error: The file is being used by another process.
    This reproduced when building on local machine, and goes away after building again. However, our company uses gated builds so the first failure will stop an entire 2.1 hour build and I can't ship the product.
    The instruction to launch SignTool is located in external files so I can't disable it, run it twice, or run it in a while loop until succeeds, ignoring failures. I have to get it to work right the first time. I looked on MSDN, and there are other people
    who had this problem and never solved it.

    The only clue I have is our solution having build configurations that aren't called "Debug" and "Release", which have been cloned from Debug/Release and have WinRT apps building. If the build script for WinRT depends on anything being
    called "Debug" and "Release" it wouldn't work correctly.
    In any case, there is no documentation for SignTool that mentions this error - how do I fix it?

    Hi TripleRectified,
    >> If the build script for WinRT depends on anything being called "Debug" and "Release" it wouldn't work correctly
    What's you version of Visual Studio, on my side, in the Visual Studio 2013 Update 4, I created a new configuration(Copy Settings from "Debug") to build a WINJS project, but I can't see the exception you mentioned.
    >>This reproduced when building on local machine, and goes away after building again
    Does it happen on all local machines? We need to exclude environment facts first, for example: Tool, OS etc.

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

  • What do I do with this error? "could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of camera raw?"

    what do I do with this error? "could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of camera raw?"

    It can be that you have an old version of Photoshop Elements and a new camera.
    Please tell us
    Which operating system you are running on
    Which version of Photoshop Elements you are using
    Which camera the raw images come from (Make & model)

  • Error: The file is either corrupt or using....

    I am attempting to open a file I just did work on. I was saving periodically and closed the program properly. Now I am getting the error message:
    C:\Users\ritterbenjamin\Documents\Adobe\Audition\5.0\shittests\shittests.sesx
        Error: The file is either corrupt or using an unsupported format
    Is there a fix to this? I tried opening it up in a word doc and that didnt even work to examine.

    Unfortunately its sometimes difficult to recall some small detail which may have impacted.
    I don't know how many times I've been asked to fix some PC problem and when you ask the person what happened between the time it was working last and now and invariably the answer is 'nothing'.  Of course later you find that they had upgraded their OS, installed a new video card and a heap of cracked software or some other such events.
    'Oh I didn't think that made any difference' LOL
    I'm not saying this is the case with you but something has occured which is out of the norm otherwise every Audition user would have this problem every time they used Audition and that is certainly not the case.
    In my case (this is a few years ago) I went through a period where I would get a crash more often than not - to the point I was hesitant to do too much.
    I ended up writing a specific ses/sesx backup utility (http://www.mediasweeper.com.au/sesbackup.htm). Maybe use that before or after each session until confidence returns
    The crashes BTW were caused by a rogue video driver and since then the only crash I have had has been due to a dodgy plugin
    Bottom line is that any small detail you can offer will only go towards someone working out the cause.
    So think of things like - were you accessing the session across a network, was there something different about this session or the files used, a new hard drive, or new software or hardware just installed, etc, etc
    Also (and yes I know it is too late now) but any session which requires work spanning a number of days should always be backed up to at least one other location - most of us have been guilty of not doing that at least once

  • ITunes error: "The file iTunes Library.itl does not appear to be a valid iTunes library file."

    Every couple of weeks I get this iTunes error after connecting iPod Nano 6th generation. Then it deletes my whole iPod content. I am running Windows 7 x64 Enterprise with latest patches, iTunes 10.2.2.14 and McAfee antivirus.
    I tried to reinstall QuickTime + iTunes, clean the system and then reinstall. But this does not work. I also tried to create a brand new library. But no success...
    Error: "The file iTunes Library.itl does not appear to be a valid iTunes library file. iTunes has attempted to recover your iTunes library and renamed this file to iTunes Library (Damaged) 3.itl."
    Any idea?

    No I haven't. I tried almost everything possible but without any remarkable shift. I am about to sell my brand new iPod:(

  • HT4059 I used to be able to transfer PDFs from Dropbox to iBooks but now the file appears for about 1 second and then disappears - any ideas?

    Can anyone help? I want to transfer PDF files from Dropbox to iBooks but when I do, the file appears for about 1 second then disappears. I used to Beatle to do this with no problems, but now it doesn't work. Help!

    I had the same problem.  After numerous attemps to Restore from Itunes, I decided to use the "Setup as New Ipad" option. It went through a few question on new setups. Afterwards all my apps, data, photo's were still intact. Which shows that the Restore from Itunes worked. There must be a small bug that prevents the Ipad to open after "Restore from Itunes" .  Hope it will help you.

    Can anyone help me with this problem.  I tried updating the latest itunes and it caused an error MSVCR80.dll missing.  I then tried fixing it after reading other people had the same problem and a solution was given about uninstaling itunes and the order in which to do that.  I did that but now get the error "the  files "itunes library.itl" cannot be read because it was created with a newer version of itunes.  I see a solution has been given about this but I cannot find what is suggested to enable me to follow instructions.  Can anyone please go through step by step (letting  me know where I can find what is needed) to enable me to be able tio log into itues again.  Thanks

    Hi pussygalore,
    If you are having issues with iTunes after an attempted update, you may find the following article helpful:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    You may want to make sure that in the last step (reinstalling iTunes) that you are installing the latest/newest available version, and not attempting a reinstall from an older file.

  • I get an error when starting firefox on several user profiles: the bookmarks and history are not functional something about the file being in use.

    Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7 workstations, the appdata folder is redirected to a network share at \\server\profiles and several users are unable to use bookmarks getting an error about the file being in use. I'm wondering if maybe my antivirus (Trend Micro) or my backups (Symantec) might be locking up the places.sqlite for these users? Though I don't understand why it would be for some users and not others. I can't be the first one and I'm not coming up with anything searching google endlessly. Anybody else run into this?

    hello, yes this is likely caused by an external program locking access to the bookmarks/history database. you could try renaming the file in question & see if it is working when it is regenerated, this will clear bookmarks and the history though, so keep a backup...

  • I have CDs, legally purchased and uploaded to iTunes (v9.1.0.79)...they were on a harddrive and now I tried to play on my new computer (iTunes v11.0.2.26), but whilst the files appear intact they skip through each song in seconds...why?  and how to fix?

    I have CDs, legally purchased and uploaded to iTunes (v9.1.0.79)...they were on a harddrive and now I tried to play on my new computer (iTunes v11.0.2.26), but whilst the files appear intact they skip through each song in seconds...why?  and how to fix?

    I don't recognise the symptoms as such, but here are a couple of things to try.
    Check all tracks
    Unchecked tracks are skipped during normal track to track playback. Go to the Songs view and CTRL-click on an empty checkbox, or CTRL-click on a filled one twice. This will ensure all tracks are checked.
    Repair permissions
    To make sure that your iTunes folder (or media folder if located separately) has the correct permissions, right-click on the folder and click Properties, then go to the Security tab and click Advanced. If necessary grant your account and SYSTEM full control to this folder, subfolders and files, then tick the option to replace permissions on child objects which will repair permissions throughout the library. This is the XP dialog but later versions of Windows shouldn't be too different.
    You can also clear the Read-Only flag for the entire library from the Properties dialog.

    Sorry, I am on a MAC. I downloaded the link you provided and it's giving the same error message as above. Running CS5.
    The error message you gave is from Camera Raw. I thought you said that DNG Converter didn't work?
    The link I gave you is an article on getting your raw files to open in Camera Raw. Did you read it? I lazily gave you the link because this is one of the most common problems in this forum, and I get tired of saying the same thing over and over again. I could break it down for your specific case, but I was hoping you could read through the article and work it out for yourself.
    But, here goes:
    Your cameras are newer than your raw converter, so it won't understand them.
    CS5 comes with Camera Raw 6, which can only be upgraded as far as 6.7.1. You can find out which version of Camera Raw you are running in three ways: in the settings title bar (Cmd-K), in the plug-in title bar (press F to start/stop full-screen mode to reveal the title bar), or Photoshop's Help menu (About Plug-ins).
    Downloading raw files from newer Nikon cameras with old versions of Nikon Transfer will actually make them unreadable in Adobe software. They can be fixed with a free utility. Again, it's all in the linked article. You should be using up-to-date Nikon Transfer, or Adobe Photodownloader to avoid this problem.
    All being well, you have good raw files on your computer. You can convert them to dng using Adobe DNG Converter. IF you are on OSX Leopard or Snow Leopard, you CAN'T use the latest version, because Adobe stopped support. But, if you ARE on a later OSX, you can download DNG Converter 8.6.
    DNG Converter is designed to convert FOLDERS of raw files at a time. You select a folder of raw files, and tell it to create DNG copies. BUT, you have to set up the converter before you start using it...
    If you load up DNG Converter, you'll notice a button labelled "Change Preferences". Clicking this, you'll see the first option is "Compatibility". Here, you must select the appropriate setting for the version of Camera Raw you HAVE (see above). If you can't work this out, just pick "Camera Raw 5.4 and later". THEN pick a folder of raw files and convert them to DNGs.
    All the above is already in the article, but I gave you a personalised response. If you still can't get it to work, please give us more than one sentence. Tell us exactly what you tried, and describe exactly what happened. Which version of OSX you're running, what device and software you downloaded your raw files with, how you used DNG Converter, and so on.
    I really should be in bed.
