That could be the problem; attachments often get damaged during the transport.
Can you ask the sender of these documents to upload one of them to a file sharing server (SendNow, Dropbox, Google Drive, ...), and see if you can get the document undamaged?

What is your operating system? Browser? Reader version?
What exactly means "cannot"?

I recently retired and stopped my subscription to Adobe Pro. Now I cannot open a pdf document as an attachment in an email. Can you please advise as to how to correct this problem?

I recently retired and stopped my subscription toe Adobe Pro. Now I cannot open a pdf attachment in an email with Adobe Reader. How can I solve this issue?

OK. Then the next thing to try is to right-click a PDF file, select Open With, Choose Default Program, then select Reader from the list and tick the "Always use this application..." box, and click OK.

I cannot open a pdf document in Safari 6

When I clik, on a website to a link opening a pdf document I only get a black screen and no pdf opens! (Mac OSX Lion et safari version6.0.2
What dan I do?

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

PLEASE HELP. Cannot open a PDF document via a link in an email. I am using Mac 10.7.5 and Firefox.

If I receive a PDF document attached to an email by way of an icon, I can double click on the PDF icon and the document opens. HOWEVER, if I receive a link to a PDF document in an email, and I click on the link which leads me to a webpage with another link to a PDF document, when I click on the document, a new web page opens but NOTHING happens - no download box - just nothing.
Please help. This is so frustrating.
Yes, I can right click and 'Save As' - but I don't want to. I want it to open as it used to open - displaying the open PDF document in a new web page.
Then I tried to click on a download button on a website to retrieve my statement - but again, a new web page would open but it would be BLANK. No sign of any download.
When I used to open PDFs on a webpage, I used to get the Download box which asked if I want to OPEN or SAVE. This doesn't appear any more.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have already gone to HD / Internet Plug-ins and deleted the two Adobe PDF plug ins - but this hasn't fixed my problem.

Click on the below link :
https://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
Step 1: select Mac OS X 10.6-`0.`0
Step 2 : Safari and FIrefox
Then click on " Download Now" button.

I cannot open a pdf document from a website

I am using Int Explorer and have Reader 9.1 installed. When I try to open a pdf doc I get a box which has Adobe Reader top left and blue question mark and an OK box. When I click OK nothing happens. I have tried the various suggestions from knowledge base including making sure Reader was enabled but to no avail. It does not happen all the time as I have been able to view pdf pages from a manufacturers on line catalogue. Any ideas??

I cannot open the pdf document

i downloaded adobe reader x for windows ,but cannot open the document

What happens when you open Reader?
What version of Windows are you using?

Acceptance of EULA before opening a PDF document

I cannot open a PDf document The message that appears Accept end user licence agreement and then re open

Ok, you say you cannot launch Adobe Reader on a Mac. If you can't launch Adobe Reader you will certainly keep getting that message until you do.
Do you mean
1. You don't know how to launch Adobe Reader on a Mac, or
2. You do know but something wrong happens.
If 1, see my earlier reply " If you are on a Mac, use Launch Pad to launch all apps." - let us know if this doesn't make sense.
If 2, please let us know exactly what happens when you DO launch Adobe Reader - what message you get?

Cannot open multiple PDFs in Acrobat Reader X

Ever since upgrading to Acrobat X, I cannot open multiple PDFs. With all previous versions over recent years, up to version 9, I could select multiple PDF files in Windows Explorer, hit Enter, and it loaded them all. Then I could Ctrl+F6 to switch between the documents. Quick and Easy.
Now, if I try this with just 2 PDF files, it loads one and then locks up, almost stalling the PC, with each session of Acrobat taking about 40-45% of processor power. I have to crash out of it.
Help!
[P.S. As an aside, I don't like this floating toolbar that only appears if you happen to move the mouse over the bottom part of the screen. I suppose it's a "neat idea" from one of the programmers trying to be clever. Well guys, it is not user friendly. As a former Software QA and Product Manager, one of my design adages was "DON'T MAKE ME GUESS". Please think again.]

In my case: v10.1.1 would not open more than one pdf at a time on a user workstation (although mine did) so I tried disabling protected mode and made sure the large image display setting was correct.
To no avail. Reinstalled version base version 10, checked the same settings...no joy
Also tried repairing the install and re-updated from the base v10...still no love
Solution for me: Opened reader X, under Help-->Online Support, there is an option to generate a system report which availed the following:
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200
Version: 7.15.10.9685
Check: Not Supported
And of coarse the most recent driver was already present. Had to go back to v9.4
All good now. Hope this saves someone a few hours!

I cannot print a PDF document

I cannot print a full PDF document from my computer. I open the document and select my printer and click print and I only get the first page. I tell it to do a range of pages and I sometimes get the first 2 pages. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that I can change to get this to work. I have downloading the document and saving it to my computer and then printing, and still no luck. This is becoming VERY frustrating.
Thank you for any help you can give.

Cannot open some PDFs on Macbooks

Hi folks! I have Macbook (2008) and Macbook Pro (2010) and both cannot open some PDFs. I got an error message 'there was an error opening this document. the file is damaged and could not be repaired'. I tried to use Mac's Preview, Adobe's Acrobat (9 and 10, with latest updates) and Adobe's Photoshop CS5 - none did work. Both laptops have OSX 10.6.7 with all latest updates. The funny thing is that files work fine in old Adobe Acrobat 6 Pro on Windows XP though before opening it shows a message that the file was created in newer version of software and you should update yours but then it opens the file.
The problem is completely random and I cannot find any correlations with Acrobat's options/settings. Does anyone have any ideas?

Since you say that the file opens in Acrobat 6, why don't you do a Save As in that version to rewrite the file. Then it may work. (Basically, the file sounds corrupted.)

Using Adobe Reader, I cannot open any adobe documents, Message indicates missing plug-ins. Please help... Thank you

Successfully downloaded Reader on to my PC (Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit). However, I cannot open any adobe documents, Message indicates missing plug-ins. Please help... Thank you,

Hey Joseph Curcio,
You might be viewing the PDFs in your browser only where Adobe Reader plug-in is disabled.
Please try opening the PDF file using Adobe Reader and then check.
Let me know in which browser are you trying to view the PDFs so that I can help you out enabling the required plug-ins.
Regards,
Anubha

I cannot open any pdf files! I used to be able to. Have a mac.

I cannot open any pdf files. I used to be able to. If I open them I get a blank screen. Have a mac. Help!!!!!

Hi Charlie,
First, thanks for responding. These are mostly emails with attachments or documents that I have. I download them and once I open them the page is blank. I also cannot look at them in Preview. The same problem. I called Apple and they said they assume I have an older software version. They are going to send new software. I am not really sure this will solve my problem. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!
