Fix for android "can't delete PDF files"

4/2013 fix for Android Adobe reader complaint: "can't find delete area of adobe". Answer: you have wrong version installed. Fix: Go to "applications manage all" and the only option for your reader, on your android, is to unistall latest updates. After you unistall latest updates, you'll now have the option to download new updates and so now do that! You now should have downloaded and installed at least the new update 10.5.2 which now you still have all your old PDF's on your phone, and also the the new version, which looks just like all those youtube videos on how to delete files from your documents folder. Hope this helps all those like myself who couldn't delete PDF files and only had the option to "view" or "help".

Moved to Adobe Reader for Android

Since last update for iOS can't open PDF file in iPhone 5

Since last update on PDF can't open PDF file on iOS.
MSG says that PDF file I'm trying to open is not a valid PDF file but I can open
It on iPad. Any explanations please ?

If you can share this PDF with us at [email protected], we can take a look, and see if there's a bug in Reader for iOS that is preventing us from opening it.

Deleting PDF files using Adobe Acrobat Standard XI

I can't delete PDF files I created myself. I get the error message I don't have access to edit, see snapshot above. I am the administrator of my own laptop. Browsing this forum helps me to locate the same query as mine but no exact answers/steps of how to bloody delete the damn files. *sorry, bit annoyed of the run-around links & not found pages* Any help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I want to just delete closed PDF files. And I know how to delete using Del button or Right Click > Delete. The problem is I get error message saying the file I want to delete, can't be deleted.
I tried a number of combinations with Preview enabled & disabled, but still won't let me delete the files. I haven't tried exiting/closing Acrobat AFTER disabling Preview THEN deleting the PDF files, will try this. But if this is how I'm supposed to delete files in Adobe XI from now on, come on, seriously?! I work with a lot of PDF files. I shouldn't have to close down the application (Acrobat) just to delete the closed PDF files using my File Explorer view. It's like having to exit Word each time I want to delete closed .docx files.
Will try & advise.

Can't open PDF files in the browser. I've tried every fix mentioned and it still doesn't work!!!

I have Windows XP. Using firefox as my browser. Suddenly, I can't open PDF files in the browser. I've tried all the fixes mentioned. Nothing works!!! Checked the plugin settings, checked Adobe Reader settings.

I already fixed it. I never exited out of Firefox before deleting the mime file. it works now.

Hey there
"pdf creator" for iPad works flawlessly for me working with pdf files
It takes care of all my needs
I'm not sure about sending via Wifi or Bluetooth but I send them via e- mail all the time
Possibly it could handle your needs as well
Just type it into the App Store search field and the first one that comes up is the one I use
Jump on over there and read up on it before buying and see if it will help you
Hope this helps
Regards

How can I open PDF files? The usual procedures don't work for me. Thanks.

How can I open PDF files? Until a couple of months ago, I had no problem. Now I can open none of them. I have Adobe Reader X. Yesterday I uninstalled Adobe X, restarted the computer, and then reinstalled Adobe X. No success. Thanks.

What happens if you open Reader first then use File>Open like Bernd suggested?
Are you sure you are opening them in Reader and not a text editor or MS Word? I ask because Reader will not prompt you for a language.

HT204365 The new IBook version for iPad is not opening PDF files. Is it going to be fixed?

The new iBook 2.1.1 version for iPad is not opening PDF files. is it going to be fixed?

It is not broken. It works for me and it has always worked for me - every version of iBooks in every version of the iOS that I have ever run on my iPad. Therefore - I do not think that it is broken - or it would not work for me - and for countess others using iBooks and the current iOS version 5.1.1.
What have you done or tried to this point in order to get rectify the situation with iBooks? Have you restarted your iPad, quit iBooks completely and then tried again? Rebooted the device? Uninstalled and reinstalled iBooks?
Anything at all?

I can't delete photo files to make room for iOS 8.

I can't delete photo files to make room for iOS 8.

Ive had this and solved it an entirely different way very quickly.
Connect the ipad to the imac (i assume its an imac);
Fire up itunes;
while thats happening create a new folder called EMPTY in your Pictures folder on the imac;
go back to itunes;
select the ipad;
go to photos on the ipad;
select SYNC FROM SELECTED FOLDER;
select your EMPTY folder;
then hit SYNC and the photos / videos in photo albums / the albums will all instantly disappear.
We had 7.98 Gb of syncd fotos and videos on the ipad and tried all the more lengthy [and unsuccessful] ways suggested elsewhere.
There was so little space we couldnt u/d the IOS !
OK, so we werent bothered about keeping the fotos that were on the ipad (they'd all been filed in iphot on the imac so not 'lost').
Nice to find a solution for yourself when you're a silver surfer in your mid '60's

Can I AirPlay PDF files because no airplay option comes up but ok for photos

Can I AirPlay PDF files because no airplay option comes up but ok for photos

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can mirror them.
Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

Can't open pdf files. When I try it opens 10's of new tabs. I habe to exit for it to stop. Any solutions?

Unable to open pdf files, not even in browse. When I try, it opens loads of new tabs - over 100 a time until I press the exit button on the top corner. The page flashes non-stop when it opens the new tabs. If I didn't stop it, it would open 100's more.
All I want to do is READ a pdf file.
PLEASE HELP.

Already downloaded the Adobe before this problem arose and downloaded it again since then.
Still getting hieroglyphics! Still can't read pdf files either ;-(.

Hi. I have a Dell PC running Windows 7 64 bit. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader, It worked yesterday. Today I have job training to do that is due tomorrow morning and I can't open PDF files. I have to open a guide and read it and take a test tomorrow. I have deleted and reinstalled the application. I have rebooted. I have made sure my PDF's are associated with the program. Every PDF on my computer won't open and I get the same error message. It simply says Attempt to access invalid address. How can I fix this? Thanks.

Hi Don,
I have seen this issue fixed for some users by modifying the following registry key:
The key is "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" MoveImages
Set the key to 1 instead of 0 then reboot the machine.
In case you still face the issue try the following registry key change:
The only thing you have to do is rename the following key at the REGEDIT, and everything will be fine !!
BEFORE:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.exe
AFTER:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\iexplore.old
Note: Please take a backup of the registry before attempting this change.
Regards,
Rave

Deleted PDF FILES

Is there a way to recover deleted pdf files?

You cannot recover deleted PDF files using the Adobe Reader for Android software itself. Perhaps you can find some Android utility for recovering deleted files from the Android file system.
