I am unable to open some embedded PDFs in Firefox, but I can open them in IE.

OS - Windows 7 Ultimate
Firefox ver: 3.6.13
Acrobat 8 installed
Acrobat Reader X installed
I can open them in IE. I am using Windows 7 and Firefoc 3.6.13. In IE, if I click on the PDF link, it opens a smaller window on the same page and display the pdf. I can click on a link labeled "Complete version" and it opens the PDF in a new window. If I click the link in Firefox, I get a message that the file cannot be opened because it is either damaged on not supported. I have Acrobat 8 installed and Acrobat Reader X (which I just installed to see if this would fix the problem, but it did not).Any suggestions?

I am trying to open some *.avi files in quicktime, they are from my security camera at home. It will not open them, would anyone be able to help me? It says I need a plugin but it does not tell me which one.
Basically your player is telling you that you need to install the codecs that will play the compressed data within the AVI file.
AVI is a legacy file container in which the tracks of data are interleaved to maintain synchronization. This data can be encoded using many different audio and video codecs. Your problem is to determine which codecs you need for the player you are trying to use and install them if they are available. Failing that, your will either have to play the files in a different player which has the codec support your require built into the app or convert the content to a compression format that is natively compatible with the player you wish to use.
Since you have not stated what platform, operating system, and particular player you are targeting for playback, it is difficult to provide precise instructions for fixing your specific problem at this point. Suggest you try alternative players compatible with your system and platform to see if they will play the files, use a dedicated media information utility to determine the codecs needed for playback, or post a sample file for analysis.

I can no longer open my Hotmail inbox with Firefox but I can with Internet Explorer

I have been using Firefox for some time and like. As of yesterday, I am able to open Windows live but can't get my hotmail inbox from that page. I have no problem getting to my hotmail inbox using Internet Explorer. What's wrong?

By the way, although Magellan Communicator is a stand-alone program, the way that web pages connect to it is through a plugin. When you check the plugins list, you should see it there. Screen shot attached for reference.

Cannot open Canon 5D mark III files, but I can open MarkII Cr2s

Any updates for the mark III

If your using pse 10 then you'll have to wait for camera raw 6.7 to come out of beta.
In the meantime you could download the 6.7 dng converter and convert your mark III files to
dng copies which will then open in photoshop elements:

When I try to open an embedded PDF file I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe.

When I try to open an embedded PDF file (Word doc) I get an error "The program used to create this object is AcroExch.exe. That program is either not installed on your computer, or is corrupt..." I've tried about everything from unchecking
protected mode at startup to removing & reinstalling Adobe. Nothing seems to fix this issue. Any other ideas?
This is happening on Adobe reader 9, 10 & 11 with MS Word 2010 & 2013. I've uninstalled, cleaned & reinstalled Reader 9, 10 & 11, as well as Acrobat 10 Pro & 11 Standard. Removed "Protected mode at startup, and changed
the default program for viewing from reader to Acrobat. This will not go away. It is affecting production at our company.

" Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder" . i can't find open containing folder in profile directory. it does give me the option to open the places.sqlite file using graphic converter. when i try that, graphic converter gives me a window saying that it can't be opened because it is corrupted or is not a file type supported by graphic converter.
i appreciate your help with a workaround to get the old bookmarks. that works. however, the problem has morphed from that concern to why adobe reader [the default app.] won't open firefox .sqlite files. is the problem in adobe reader or firefox? also, how can i tell if the places.sqlite file is corrupt?
i'm getting in over my head here and do appreciate your help.

Problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6.

Hi, I have a problem with opening some of PDFs in Photoshop CS6. It is said: it isn't possible to carry out an order since the module of the file format cannot analyse this file

Don’t know if Reader has this, too, but in Acrobat one can check under Document Properties.
I can convert and place the file in Photoshop CS6.
I would recommend trying the usual trouble-shooting routines and if nothing helps un-installing, running the Cleaner and re-installing Photoshop. (After making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved to s secure location.)

Is there a solution for this?
I just opened Firefox for the first time in a couple of weeks and am experiencing the same problem. I see my Gmail inbox briefly before being redirected to the calendar. Clicking the back button produces the same result.
Very frustrating.

After I installed the recent Apple security patch, I can no longer save PDFs when using Safari. And Firefox no longer can open website PDFs. Any suggestions?

If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder. Restart Safari. If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
Thanks. This was the solution for me.

You can only import photos from the camera roll into the computer. Is that the album that you are seeing?
Any albums that you create on the device itself (the iPad that is) cannot be transferred to your computer. iPad created albums do not contain copies of your photos but merely pointers to those photos so they do not actually exist in those albums.

Thx Eric. You've helped! When I tried to copy the words written in my e-mail to show you what I meant, I right clicked to copy, and saw an option to open the attachment, which it did! So I'm sorted thank you. Editable means a form which you can fill in and send back. Thanks again. Stephen
