I'm running Windows 8.1 and find I can't open pdf attachments to emails? Any help appreciated

Each time I try to open a pdf email attachement I'm told the file is corrupted but I am able to open from an old Apple computer.
I am running an HP Desktop with Windows 8.1.
This has only started happening in the last few days since I uploaded updates to Adobe Acrobat.

Hi Anand
It’s happening with all pdf email attachments.
I am using Outlook.
I have Norton Antivirus – I don’t know how to turn it off – I don’t really want to delete it because it came with the Windows system
I don’t know what version I was previously using, but the version on my system is Adobe Reader X1.
Regards
Jan

  • How can I open pdf attachments in email? Adobe reader used to do this, and does not.

    About 3 weeks ago, I suddenly could not open pdf attahments while reading my email. I now must down load them and save, in order to open them. Can someone help me to fix this? They open on my desk top, but not in Internet explorer. I would like to see them before down loading. What can I do to fix this problem?

    Enable the Adobe Reader plugin in browser : http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

  • I have Elements 9 and cannot download NEF files from my new Nikon1 v1, any help appreciated

    I have Elements 0 and cannot download NEF files from my new Nikon1 V1, any help is appreciated.

    PSE 9 is too old for any of the versions of ACR that support the 1 V1. You have three options:
    1. Upgrade to PSE 10 or 11.
    2. Use the Nikon software to convert the raw files and send the resulting tiffs to PSE for further editing.
    3. Try the free Adobe DNG converter, and you should be able to open the resulting DNGs in your version of ACR.

  • I have Adobe Reader Version 11.0.03 and can't open PDFs.  Would appreciate some help.

    I have Adobe Reader Version 11.0.03 on a new iMac OSX Version 10-8.4 and can't open PDFs.  Here's the message I get:  "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."   Any help would be appreciated!

    What buttons do you get to click on with this message? What browser are you using (e.g. Safari, Chrome, Internet Explorer...)

  • Window is minimized and now I can't open it anymore!!

    Hello. I'm using Wine and I minimized the window (using the little yellow dot in the top left).. and now when I click on the opened icon in the "Dock", the program title "Wine" appears on the very top Apple Menu Bar, but not the actual window itself..
    I have tried Command+Tab and selected the running app "Wine".. and it just does the same thing.. appears on the very top Apple Menu Bar, but not the actual window itself..
    When the "Wine" app shows up on the TOP Menu Bar, I've tried clicking "Window", and there's nothing showing there.. I've tried disabling all the "extra" dock preferences.. still nothing.. I've checked any possible other opened desktops, still nothing.. Also, when I right-click the Wine app in the dock, and click "Show All Windows", it just shows me a gray screen with nothing there..
    Is there any way to "Maximize" or bring back open this app? I have some complex things running in it that will take some time to complete, so I really want to avoid "Quitting" the app altogether..
    Is there any way to get this window to show? Thank you!

    Mine does the same thing occasionally, is your phone jailbroken? Sometimes it will work if you delete the book and reinstall it or put your phone into airplane mode then turn it back off.

  • Acrobat 6 and Reader 9 - Can't open PDF on web

    Hi,
    On my work machine, I have Acrobat 6 installed so I can create PDFs (I hope to get authorized for Acrobat 8 soon). When trying to view/open a PDF on a website, I was getting the following message:
    "The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running cannot be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required."
    And the PDF won't open.
    I downloaded Reader 9, and updated both Acrobat 6 and Reader 9 with all updates.
    In Preferences, I have played with enabeling/disabeling the "Display PDF in browser" on both Arobat and Reader with no luck.
    Are there any other settings I need to change to be able to open PDFs?
    Many thanks!

    I'm having a similar problem and am totally frustrated.
    I have an old version of acrobat reader 5, but today I downloaded reader 9, but when I click on .pdf files online, I get the same message saying that I need reader 8 or 9 to open files on the web.... which I have!
    I went in, after reading this thread, and made sure my 5 had the "display PDF in browser" UNCHECKED, and that it WAS checked in 9... but still no dice. For a few years now I've been unable to just click on and open pdf files online, and have been going a long route around by right clicking pdf's, clicking on "save target as", saving the files to my desktop, then opening reader 5 and going to file, open, and opening the file. What a huge pain in the butt though... all I want to do is be able to click pdf files and open them in my browser!!
    Oh, and another bizarre thing that has happened is that since installing reader 9, all the icons on every pdf file on my computer has changed to the icon windows uses for files of an unknown type. Can't figure out why since when I double click any of these files, they open right up in reader 9.
    I'm beyond irritated with trying to figure this out, so I'm open to any suggestions anyone has!

  • My free Acrobat trial expired and now I can't open PDFs with Adobe Reader

    I recently downloaded a free trial of Adobe Acrobat Pro before purchasing the software.  I already have Adobe reader installed on my computer (Dell PC -- Windows 7).  I attempted to purchase Adobe Acrobat as the parent of a student and I was told I had to wait for verification, which could take 1-2 days.  In the mean time, EVERY time I try to open a PDF, it asks me to buy the software and reminds me my trial has expired.  How can I revert back to using the free Adobe Reader I have always used?  If I had known it would be this much trouble, I never would have tried the free trial!  Can anyone help me out?
    Thank you!!
