I have always had trouble (including error messages)when opening pdf files from a website within Firefox

More often than not when I open a pdf file from within Firefox the file fails to open (often you get an error message. "there was an error processing page. A file I/O error has ocurred"). Sometimes the file downloads but is only white pages. I usually then right click the file and save it to my desktop but this is cumbersom!

Ok two things based on the crash report and the steps you took right before the crash:
# Try to disable scrolling acceleration and restart Firefox. Does it continue to crash?
# Try Safe Mode and do the same task as above with email and the pdf [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
# Also pdf.js may be helpful to read pdfs in the meantime. You can change the default reader in the Preferences/Options > Application menu of Firefox.
# Try to clear out the downloads folder and update flash to version 14 (that should do it)
IF it crashes again please also provide the new crash signatures and we can take a look :-) Sorry for the crashing :-(

  • Error 404 when opening pdf files after publishing website

    Hello,
    i included pdf files in a blog. They open properly when testet but after publishing approx. 50% of them do not show up and i receive the error 404 (file not found). Are there any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Great Input!!!
    Thanks!!! Due to your comment i found out why the files coulnd't be opened: The names included "Umlaute" and the German "sharp s". These letters were transformed automatically and than coulnd't match anymore. So easy and so difficult.
    have a nice weekend!

  • Error message when opening CS6 files in earlier versions

    PSCS6 with 12.0.4 update.  Mac OSX 10.8.2   16GB 1333 Mhz DDR3  543 GB Available
    I've recently become aware that other people are getting an error message when opening many of my my psd files if they are on earlier versions of PS and also on PSE, (including the latest version).  The message is:
    This document contains unknown data which will be discarded to keep layers editable.  To preserve the original appearance instead, choose flatten to load composite data as a flattened image. 
    Three options follow:  Flatten  Cancel  Keep Layers
    When 'keep layers' is selected the file opens as normal.  However, people with much earlier version (CS version 8) don't get the option to keep layers, and the layers are flattened when the document is opened.
    I still have CS5 on my mac, and I find that if I take my finished file into CS5 and save it there, the customer does not get the message above, and the file behaves as it should.  Those on very early version of PS can also open the files without any issues. 
    I've been using CS6 since it was released and have had to delve through all my files and save them in CS5.  Not every file is affected and I've been unable to find a common thread.
    Hoping someone can throw some light on this.

    This similar to the message one should get in an older version of photoshop such as photoshop 7.
    If one presses ok instead of read composite that might preserve the layers with the original look.
    But sometimes if a layer blending mode or some other feature is used an earlier versions of photoshop doesn't have, reading the composite is the only way to preserve the look of the image.
    You said your using shape layers?
    If they are shape layers you didn't use a stroke from the tool options bar?
    Can you post an example of the image with the layers panel visible that you get that message with?
    I guess your using photoshop cs6 with the 13.01 update?

  • Error when opening PDF files from SAP.

    Hi Gurus
    I have posted this question in ABAP Development section also. Please read the below text.
    We are having a strange intermittent problem with Adobe Reader. When we try to open PDF files from SAP Frontend we get an error pop-up. The pop-up does not have any text. The title of the pop-up has "Adobe Reader". There is a blue question mark and an OK button.
    This issue occurs few times a day in Windows Vista.
    This issue does not occur in Windows XP.
    Since past few weeks, we have been trying to find some error/warning/atleast some text in log files of SAP, OS, Adobe Reader, Registry entries, Event Viewer. So far, we have not found anything.
    SAP is not able to help as this issue occurs intermittently and said when they tried, the issue did not occur. They made two attempts and in each attempt they tried 10 times to reproduce the issue. This issue occurs intermittently.
    Environment
    SAP R/3 4.7 EE SAP_Basis 620 Support Package 61
    Windows Vista Enterprise
    Adobe Reader 9.0 and Adobe Reader 9.1 (tried with both versions)
    SAPGUI 710 Patch 12 (latest patch). It also occured in Patch 11.
    Please suggest
    Thank you
    Pavan

    Now I got to capture the screenshot, however not able to attach/upload here but it says:
    'Reading Untagged Documents'
    lets say i tried to open 6 page document then it said:
    'This 6-page document is untagged and must be prepared for reading. While the document is being
    analyzed, your assistive technology will not be able to interact with this application. '
    then it asked for Reading options
    then a checkbox for to confirm 'Always use the settings from the Reading Preferences (Do not show this dialog again)
    then 'OK/START' and 'cancel' buttons
    It seems, this is the problem with Adobe w.r.t Vista.
    thanks

  • Error message when opening video files on z10

    when opening video files, showing error-the file can't be played due to an unexpected error(-3). request a solution to resolve this

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness shows up, the first thing to try is a proper reboot:
    Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
    BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. If this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
    See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Otherwise, please provide additional details...for example:
    What, exactly is the true file format? Not simply the file extension, but the true format?
    Does the file extension match the true file format?
    Where was the file created?
    Does the file work on other devices?
    Do other format video files work OK on your device?
    What is your exact OS level, and what exact app are you using to try and play the file?
    Good luck!

  • HELP - illustrator cs5 error message when opening cs3 files

    Has anyone else had this issue? Do you know how to fix it.
    I just bought and downloaded cs5. When opening Illustrator cs3 files I get an error message: "Can't finish previewing. Could not complete the requested operation."
    Then it opens the file but I it is only line work (no fills, gradients, etc) and I can not do anything in the file. If I click an object the error message pops up again.
    This is what it looks like in cs3.
    This is how it displays in cs5
    I cant find anything online about this issue. Also this occurs on all of my illustrator files, not just one.
    any advice?
    thanks

    I think your current system should be fine for running Illustrator CS5. Please let us know if the original problem happens for you again.
    I think your system is also fine for running Adobe Illustrator CS 5 but of course you are running the system as well and a browser and e-mail client…and perhaps Adobe Photoshop or Adobe InDesign or Microsoft Word in which case I think there might be on occasion an out of memory issue and with a complex file you will lose your preview.
    I have lost my preview as well on certain files and found that it usually is because I had trashed the preferences and forgot to set the scratch to a different disk other than the startup disk.
    I have 16 GB of RAm and once in a while I still lose the preview.

  • "Macros in this project are disabled..." error message when creating PDF files

    The following error occurs when creating a PDF file using a document that was created from a MS Word 2007 templates.
    "Macros in this project are disabled..."
    The security settings are set appropriately - it's not that. I have done everything I can think of including asking Microsoft; they say it's not them. It may not be, but I do not know how to get around it. It did not happen before upgrading my templates to the Office 2007 format.
    Has this happened to anyone else? There is no coding within th etemplates regartding PDFs. We are using Adobe Professional X.  The error only occurs when we use Adobe Pro X.
    One thing I just noticed, our templates get the following message when we go to save as a PDF using Adobe:
    Acrobat PDFMAker needs to save the file before continuing. Do you want PDFMaker to save the file and continue?

    Does it work the first time after you delete your Normal.dotm file? You may be running into the same issue that is detailed in this post Unable to open document. Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file.

  • Error message when opening pdf attachment in Outlook 2003

    I have several computers in my network running different version of Adobe Acrobat...Adobe 6.0 standard, Adobe 7.0 standard, Adobe 8.0 standard and pro, and Adobe 9.0 standard and pro. The problem I am having with a few of my end users is that when they receive an e-mail in Outlook 2003 with a pdf attachment from certain companies that we deal with in the insurance industry, they receive an error message saying they can not open the file...
    "Can't create file:XXXXXXXX.pdf. Right click on the folder you want to create the file in, and then click Properties on the shortcut menu to check permission for the folder."
    The strange part about this is they can forward the e-mail to another end user that may or may not be using the same version of Adobe as them, but the other end user has no problem opening and viewing the pdf attachment (also, if the company sending the e-mail sends the same e-mail to another end user who has no issues, they can open it with just fine) Now here is where it gets really strange... if the end user that can view the file saves the file to their hard drive, then sends it back as the same attachment in an e-mail back to the end user that could not open the file originally, now that end user can open and view the pdf attachment. I have three end users that this affecting and they each have a different version of Adobe Acrobat with all of the latest updates. I am stumped and searches so far have revealed no solutions...
    Any ideas?

    The can only open it on their machine if they save the pdf attachment after renaming it. All computers on the network have the latest Outlook 2003 updates, so it puzzles me that only three end users with the same version of Outlook 2003, with the same updates, are not able to view the attachment from Outlook, but the other users can. Also, why do those three end users have to rename the file if the save it to the their computer to be able to view it, but no one else has to. And, it is not every pdf attachment either, just some from certain people that send them an e-mail. Really puzzling issue that I need to get resolved...

  • Error message when reading PDF files

    I'm running FFox 5.0 and have the Adobe Acrobat plug-in (V10.1.0.534). My system in WinXP/SP3. I recently updated my Adobe Reader to Version X and ever since then I encounter an error when trying to read a pdf document on a web site. The document comes up, but in a bit of a strange way. First I get an "(JavaScript Application)" error box showing the message "Load: TypeError: browser is unidentified." Then when I touch the OK button the document is displayed, but with a double window header, the upper one showing "Mozilla Firefox" and the lower one the orange-shaded "Firefox v". As I said, the document is displayed OK, but something isn't normal. Is it the fault of the updated Adobe Reader, or FFox V5, or what?

  • Adobe Reader 11 - error message when opening PDF's

    I have an iMac OSx.  Using Adobe Reader 11.  Everytime I open a PDF I get "an internal error has occured"  I was trying to uninstall Adobe Reader 11 but the uninstaller in my Applications/Utilities is not there.  HELP!!

    It's almost identical to what you posted. I think the difference was that I was trying on a machine with complete install of Acrobat which has the font packs and hence there was no hang/crash. Your file doesn't hang on that machine either.
    If you look at the fonts panel in your document: File>Properties>Fonts, you'll notice that it uses MS-PGothic font which is a Japanese fonts, and hence the Japanese font pack might fix this.
    Also, since you mentioned ACE.dll, the other possibility might be that there are conflicting DLLs on the system, commonly referred to as DLL Hell. Another thing to try would be to search the system for ACE.dll and see which all software install it.
