I keep getting the message 'The plug-in cannot open the broker'

I get this message when I am trying to download pdf files. Then either it downloads anyway OR everything freezes.
I don;t even know which plug-in is involved, never mind what the broker is.
Help!
Thanks

    I have no idea what this means.  Particularly the part about "Brian-Massmans-Computer-7."  I don't even know what computer that is. 
    I'm guessing it could have something to do with the fact that I've still got FCP 5 installed.  But it's not running.

  • I get a message saying that "Excel cannot open the file

    Every now and then, when I try opening an Excel file, I get a message saying that "Excel cannot open the file 'file.xlsx' because the file format or the file extension is not valid. Verify that the file has not been corrupted and that the file extension
    matches the format of the file.

    I see this most often when a file has been transferred around a lot and gets corrupted due to bad sectors on hard drives, 
    bad thumb drives, etc...
    Occasionally, I find a repair utility that will....kind of....fix it. You tend to lose all formatting and usually the user 
    would have to spend more time doing than life than simply starting from scratch. If on a file server, shadow copies
    (previous versions) are a god send.
    If it happens completely randomly, does it happen more often to the same group of people? Perhaps an update malfunctioned? 
    Reinstall Office? Try XLSX Open File Tool for recovery your documents (http://www.xlsx.openfiletool.com/)
    There could be so many reasons this could happen, but all the above is where I'd start.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile:

    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • I keep getting a message that my ipad2 cannot connect to the apple store.

    I get onto the apple Store site and can see everything, but when I try to get a new app or update an existing app, I can't get a download, and get an error message instead. Anybody know why?

    Usually it's because you are not making internet connection via wifi.

    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • Why do I keep getting this message. " this person cannot be reached by iMessage at this time"?

    Please, does anyone know why this would keep popping up? Wifi is working fine. It has happened to two different recipients. Have reset phone and settings etc.

    Because the recipient's iOS device cannot be reached by iMessage at the time which has nothing to do with your iPhone.
    Wi-Fi isn't required to exchange iMessages.

  • I keep getting this message when I try to open Firefox."C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe is not a valid Win32 application" What can I do? I have tried uninstalling and re-install. Ths

    I am running Windows 7 . It happened without any changes being made. I downloaded the install file several different times and even turned off my Kaspersky A/V when I installed.

    Perhaps try downloading and saving a copy of the installer to a different (64-bit) PC. Copy the iTunes64Setup.exe installer to an external hard-drive, or a large-enough thumb drive or burn it to a CD-R. Carry the installer back to your PC, copy the installer to your hard drive. (Don't run the install from the ExHD, thumb or CD-R.) Start the install by doubleclicking the iTunes64Setup.exe file.
    Does that go through any better for you?

  • When I click on Pages, I get a message that says it cannot open due to an error

    I have iWork V9.0.03 and cannot get Pages to open.  I need to update some things on a document and cannot get it to open or get Pages to open.  I reinstalled iWork and even did the most recent update.  Still have issues.
    I really need Pages to get working as this is an important document.

    When all else fails & trying to fix things just seems to make matters worse, it's best to start over.
    I have iWork 9.0.3 on disk. I deleted Pages and the other two programs found on that disk and reloaded iWork.
    I hope you mean you have a CD/DVD from a retail box to install iWork '09 from. We'll start with deleting your current install. Please, don't do this unless you have the CD/DVD to reinstall from. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user. Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.
    I'm trying to see if I can find the iWork 9.0.5 updater but It's no where to be found. I found Apple's article about it but there is no link. That's not really a problem since it's the iWork 9.0.4 updater that is needed for Snow Leopard.
