    Have recently updated Adobe Reader and now unable to open downloaded documents - Message received is could not open 'file name.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). When I check the file it shows Zero KB downloaded but the file appears - any suggestions?

    Obviously your download was not successful.
    What is your operating system?  How exactly do you download such files?

  • I have just downloaded Adobe reader but am unable to launch documents as 'license agreement' needed

    I have just downloaded Adobe Reader but am unable to launch documents as 'license agreement' must first be 'Agreed" ??  Where can I do this?

    Assuming you're on a Mac, you launch Adobe Reader like any other app, from Applications. If there is more than one Adobe Reader shown, start and quit each one in turn.

  • When I download Adobe Reader it takes over my Internet Explorer Browser and other browsers.

    When I download Adobe Reader on my Windows 7, it takes over my Microsoft Internet Explorer Browser and any browser I use.  Is there anyway to correct this problem without re-installing Windows 7 on my computer?

    Not exactly sure what is going on, but perhaps https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/application-file-icons-change-acrobat.html ?

  • Adobe Reader 11 is unable to open PDF's from Internet Explorer 11

    My boss is currently operating on the Adobe Reader 11 and often needs to use Internet Explorer 11 for certain programs.
    Unfortunately the Adobe Reader is unable to open PDFs from Internet Explorer and often comes up with a message telling us that the file is either damaged, no longer exists or that there is a problem with the syntax.  She does not have this problem with Google Chrome.  We have tried several ideas regarding the security settings but nothing seems to correct the problem.  Could someone shed some light on how to fix this error?

  • Downloaded adobe reader. when i try to open, window comes up, and closes within seconds.

    won't stay open.  does anyone know why this is happening?

    Go to C/Programs/Adobe/Reader 11/Reader
    Look for a file named eula.exe or just eula.
    Double click it.
    Accept the license agreemnt.
    Reader should work fine after that.

  • I am trying to download Adobe reader latest version and when I hit download a bar appears at the top of the screen telling me to install missing plugins but firefox states plugins up to date what can I do?

    I am unable to download Adobe reader to update my system as I only have version 7 on my computer. Normally I would be able to download direct from Adobe and my system would update but when I try to download a message bar appears which states on the left hand side "additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page" and on the right hand side there is a button which states "install missing plugins". When I click on the button a dialog box appears which states "no suitable plugins where found with a message next to a manual install button "unknown plugin(application/getplusplusadobe16299)

  • After downloading Adobe Reader X it changes all my programs to read from Adobe

    Everytime I download Adobe Reader it changes all my programs to open from Adobe Reader: for example - interenet explorers icon is changed to an Adobe icon and it is trying to open up as an Adobe file. I have to unistall the program every time to get my other programs to work. What can I do from preventing this because I used Adobe Reader every day for work and it is a pain to keep installing and unistalling after every use!

    Try this -
    In the Finder's Go menu select Go to Folder.
    Type in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ and click Go.
    In the resulting Finder window look for anything with PDF or pdf in the name and drag it to the trash.
    Restart the computer.
    Now try viewing the documents.

    You can download Adobe Reader from the App Store:

    Personally, I prefer PDF Expert or GoodReader, though.

    Could you be more precise as to what your problem is and also let me know the following:
    1. Which OS are you using

    3. Would it be possible to post a screenshot of the PDF with the symbols as stated.

  • I am unable to download adobe reader

    I have been trying to download adobe reader with no success.  I am using windows vista - and it starts to download then I get an error message after 66% downloaded which states "General Installation Error".  I used to be able to open pdf files but recently have a message on my computer, unable to preview as no reader installed.  I am not a very competent computer user, but usually manage . I hope someone with more knowledge and understanding of computers can assist me. 

    You may want to try the following:
    Run this fix from Microsoft: http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
    Uninstall all traces of any versions of Reader using Add/Remove Programs
    If you want to reinstall Reader, download it from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
