I/O Error when trying to open pdf file

I keep getting an error when I am trying to open pdf files from the internet or emails that are sent with pdf files. I am not able to view any of these pdf's - just the i/o error I receive. Anyone have anything to help me on that?? Thank you!

Please post in the forum for the software you are using to read PDFs -
the Adobe Reader forum for example. Good luck,

Currently using Flash Pro CS5, getting error when trying to open CS4 file. Error is "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in previous version.

Currently using Flash Pro CS5, getting error when trying to open CS4 file. Error is "Slides and Forms documents are not supported in this version of Flash. Please open in previous version. Has there been a fix or patch to this issue or do I have to convert back to CS4 to open the file?

Having the same problem in CS6. I can tell you that converting back to CS4 will NOT solve the problem. It seems when support for backward compatibility is discontinued, there's just no way to get
any help at all? Absolute failure to provide any user support so far...

Server Error when trying to open .acsm file

Hello,
I installed Digital Editions v2.0 on a Windows 7 (64bit) computer. I allowed this program to go through firewall.
I have authorized my computer using my AdobeID.
When trying to open the .acsm file to get an epub book which I just bought I get the following error:
"Error Getting License. License Server Communication Problem: E_ADEPT_NO_TOKEN".
Could you please help?
Thank you.

Hi, I am having the same problem when trying to convert my books from Google Play to epub format on the computer to move to my Nook tablet.Were you able to get any resolution from the content provider? When you say that you erased everything before and after the fulfillmenttoken area, could you be more specific (i.e.did you remove all of the previous content or only the content located in that specific tag?) My html and xml coding is a little rusty so any information you could provide would be extremley helpful. Thank you so much!

Error when trying to open InDesign file

InDesign might have crashed when my document was open, I'm not sure. Now when I'm trying to open the file I get the message "Cannot open (name of file)". I tried opening it on a different computer, I tried changing the file name and nothing worked.
I tried taking a previous copy from my time machine, and it was the same. I've worked hours on this file, please tell me there's a way to restore it. Thanks so much.

Do you have any other "weirdly-named" InD files in that folder? If so, try deleting them. InD may be trying to open that "weird" temp file repeatedly and if it's corrupt, hence the message.
Just a thought as that's happened to me several times and I have to find those temp files and delete them in order to open the original for editing again.

Keep getting errors when trying to open JAR files

Hi
My son is trying to open a .jar on his Macbook to add a mod to Minecraft. It throws an error and directs him to Console each time, but Console isn't showing any errors. Using advice on a couple of similar threads I followed some steps but ended up at a dead end.
The Terminal message I get when I follow the steps in another thread is this:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/eclipse/swt/widgets/Display
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display
          at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202)

          at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247)
Any help on what I need to do to resolve this so he can open it will be much appreciated.
Thanks
Andy

Hi Eric.
I am referring to the main Console. I don't see anything in Java Console - but the steps I followd in teh other thread yielded that error message from Terminal - it was different from the error in the other thread, which related to out of data Java install. I have no clue what this is and Google isn't helping me much.
Any light that can be thrown on on this woudl be great
Thanks

Grey screen on safari when trying to open pdf files

Yesterday I was reading a pdf file in my safari 3.0.4 web browser when safari froze unexpectedly and crashed. When I re-opened safari, I am now no longer able to view pdf files in the browser or at all. It opens up, starts loading and stays at a grey screen. I'm using adobe reader 7.0 and I've never had problems before but this is really frustrating to not be able to open up pdfs anymore!
Also, I downloaded firefox to see if it would work on there and it works to download and view pdfs but I can't seem to view pdf files directly in the firefox browser without downloading them to the desktop. What should I do?

You're welcome Joanne. Glad to hear all is functioning in the PDF realm.
When you get a chance, click on "My Settings" on the right side of the screen. There, you can change your tag to reflect the latest version of your OS. As you are using Safari 3.0.4, it would be either Tiger's 10.4.11 or Leopard's 10.5.1.

Error when trying to open Mac file with Captivate 6 Win

I've tried opening Captivate 6 files (.cptx/.cptl) that were created on the Mac version with Captivate 6 on Win7. Got the error message "can't open file" telling me to check the file and my resources. Resources are ok, the file was sent via email.
How can I set up a workflow for Captivate 6 between Mac and PC users that works? The discussion to Win files crashing Captivate Mac didn't help as there's no solution posted. Are there any issues concerning the compatibility of Mac and Win files within Captivate 6?
Any help is very much appreciated a we've got a deadline looming.
Regards,
Susanne

Corrupted content error when trying to download .pdf file from one website.

Unable to download .pdf file from a website, but IE8 provided the download without hesitation.
Both v7 and v8 produced the same message:
"Corrupted content error"
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected.
This may be a particular website problem, or it may be common to the particular industry segment and their protocols.
I have followed the help leads and examined the profile for Firefox as used in this instance. Nothing untoward seemed to pop out as a causal factor.

Reworked some of the javascript for our webserver and fixed the problem.

Bizarre error when trying to open .fla files in Windows Explorer

"Windows cannot find '(path of the .fla file INCLUDING the filename)'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search." error message given when I click on any .fla file in Windows Explorer to open it in Flash 8 Pro (as I've ALWAYS done before). Flash opens but no file is opened in it. If I click the fla file a second time THEN it opens in Flash (which is already opened from the first attempt.). This never happened before. I have 2 more laptops that work fine (as did THIS Win XP-SP3 pc until about a week ago), ALL with Flash 8 Pro (1 laptop w/XP-SP3 - just like the main PC with the new 'problem'), 1 laptop w/Vista Ultimate SP2. Even compared registry entries from XP laptop side-by-side - no differences at all. Everything is literally 'word-for-word'. Also compared FileMap.xml - no differences. Reinstalled Flash (no success) then out of frustration reinstalled XP with full disk format (and then everything else all over again - took 3 days) - still no success. Files open from the Flash 'File\Open' menu no problem - just not from Windows Explorer anymore. Nothing is different than before (when everything was ok - same installed programs, apps, updates, exact same 'set-up' as far as Windows drivers, system settings, prefs etc goes. VERY bizarre!

As you know Flash 8 was a Macromedia product. They don't exist anymore - being absorbed by the all powerful, all seeing, all knowing Adobe Systems (sort of reminds me of the BORG on Star Trek - you know 'Resistance is futile').
I tried literally everything - to no avail. Since I did try everything - up to and including a complete HDD full format and OS reinstall (which only accomplished deleting several days of my life that I'll never get back) I have come to the conclusion that it must be something inherent in the program that only affects installations performed after 12/31/12.
My 2 laptops have no issues because the program has been on them for years and has never been reinstalled, but I would be willing to bet if I had to reinstall it on them I would start getting the same problem (since it's now past 12/31/12).
On 12/31/12 Adobe did something in a way 'similar' to CS2 owners by rendering the activation of CS2 products inoperative. I found this out the hard way after I had just reinstalled everything while trying to deal with this issue. I had to spend hours on the phone to finally get the news from 'Dave' in Indonesia that Adobe decided to just arbitrarily render their CS2 customers paid-for software obsolete and inoperative! (Out of fairness they DID provide 'replacement' apps that don't require activation - thus avoiding MEGA lawsuits).
Anyway - I'm just saying that software makers can build anything into their product, including date specific limitations without the consumer ever being aware of it.
With the exception of this issue it otherwise works fine, and I guess I'll just have to deal with it from now on by dbl-clicking on Fla files TWICE instead of once - otherwise affectionately known as 'quadruple-clicking', (but if you count closing the error window then it's 'quintuple-clicking').
I don't mind being proven wrong - so if somebody out there knows what is going on here (besides my theory of software developers time limitations resulting in complete world domination) feel free to reply. I'll get an email telling me someone replied and I'll come to this post and have a look.
(suggestions to reinstall will be ignored - been there, done that)

Getting error when trying to open .indd file on a Mac

I'm having a very frustrating problem with InDesign on my Mac.
When opening an InDesign file on a shared folder using SMB connection I more often than not get the following error:
"Cannot open the document "document_name.indd".
You may not have permission or the document may be open already. For multi-user access,
close the file and then lock it using the File > Get Info command in the Finder."
The setup is as follows:
Macbook Pro
Mac OS: OS X 10.9 Mavericks
InDesign: 2014.1 Release, 10.1.0.71 Build
Shared folder: Hosted on Windows 2012 file server
Connection to shared folder: SMB
I am the creator of these documents and have full control on the folder. Nobody else has these documents open.
Can somebody help me finding a solution to this problem?
Any help highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read"

I get the following error when trying to open a pdf file... '*pdf.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read". I am able to open pdf files in IE and other programs.

I am encountering the same problem -- though with .qfx files from my bank. This worked fine in Firefox 31 ESR, but since upgrading to Firefox 33.0, I get the "<name>.qfx.part could not be saved, because the source file could not be read" when I attempt to download. (I should add that downloading PDF statements from the same site works fine, and that the qfx downloads work fine in IE and Chrome.)
I tried safe mode, it is still broken. Tried v34 beta, no luck. I reverted to version 31, it works again.
I guess I will stick with the older version until a solution is found...or just use an alternate browser to download my financial data.

'Failed to create object' when trying to open PDF attachment in Dynamics GP 10 OLE notes

Microsoft Dynamics GP 10 users who updated to Adobe Reader X are getting errors when trying to open or create an OLE attachment on a note.
They get 'Failed to create object' when trying to open an existing and getting 'Failed to connect.
And " Link may be broken" when trying to create a new one.
PDF attachments work pretty fine with previous version of Acrobat reader 7,8,9 up tp 9.4
Now that we install Acrobat X, something has changed.
It only does this for PDF attachments, Other file types work fine.
I was able to remove Adobe Reader X and install a prior version to work around the issue.
Has Adobe developed any Fix for the integration of X and OLE objects.
regards,

Hi Gestis,
What version of Adobe Reader are you using?
If its less that 10.1.2, please update it to 10.1.2 and then try to open PDF attachment inDynamcs GP OLE notes.
