IBooks won't open my PDF files after I did a sync on computer.

I have an IPod Touch 4th generation. My IBooks won't open any of my PDF files after I did a sync on computer. I have updated all software, reset iPod from a previous backup, re sync with itunes on computer, and I have reset all settings, it still won't work. Any suggestions??

Please close all apps from multitasking.
Download the iPad manual from here http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1595/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
That should be a known good file from Apple. See if you can open that in iBooks.
If you can open the manual the other PDF files are unreadable/corrupt.
If you are unable to open the manual the issue is with iBooks. Delete iBooks and reinstall the app. Make sure you have backup of your pdf files first.

Ibooks won't open my pdf files

When i try to open pdf files from my browser ibooks starts to open them but the file blinks and disappears. I have to close the app and do this process again for about three times for the pdf to open. I have a lot of pdf files in my bookshelf and i am constantly adding new ones as i take classes. It bothers me to have to try so many times to open one when I have tons more to open.

Please close all apps from multitasking.

Adober Reader suddenly won't open any PDF files (Mac)

I had an old version, I downloaded the latest one, upgraded to the newest, even tried taking that one out and downloading an older version. It doesn't matter which version I seem to have, it won't open any pdf files from the web.
I use a Mac, and Safari. It used to always load PDF files fine, one random place said I had to update it so I did and since then, lately it'd crash and close all Safari windows when loading a PDF or trying to copy something from a PDF. The smart Mac message I have says it could be related to an Adobe Plug in. However, now it won't even load PDF files at all, it always goes to a white page. Nothing happens.
What do I do?? I can't even save the PDF's as individual files and view then in Preview as an alternative option. It's a link online and normally would work. What happened??
HELP!
I have a Mac OS X Version 10.5.8
I've always used Safari, it's Version 5.0.5 (5533.21.1 if that means anything).
Acrobat Reader, currently an old version 9.4.0 download. BUT, I had also the 10.0.1 version which also doesn't work. When I had that 10.0.1 version and checked for updates, there was an update (.3 I think?) and I did that and that also doesn't work!
Why did it suddenly stop working?
What can I do to fix it ASAP?
Only with 9.4.0 version I can go to Help and "Repair Adobe Reader Installation" - I click that and the only box I can select is "Adobe PDFViewer Safari Plugin - View, fill-in and collaborate on Adobe PDFs within Safari" - I click continue and it tells me there's "No missing components detected. Repairs are not needed." The only option is to click "OK".
With any newer version of Adobe Reader, under Help there is no option to "Repair Adobe Reader Installation". So... I can't even try that with a new version.
I am at a loss for solutions. Hope someone here can help! Thanks!

There are several things you can do. My first step would be to repair permissions. If that doesn't work log on as a different user. If all works properly then you have a corrupt preference file (most likely) or a corrupt user font installed in your user Library (less likely). If that doesn't work download Applejack. Have it repair the disk, remove all system caches and user caches. Then have it check all system and user preference files. Remove any preference files that are corrupt. Reboot and see if your system is working properly.

When I open a pdf file, after a few seconds, it hides the toolbar and I don't know how to get it back. I use multiple monitors and, without being able to grab the toolbar, I am unable to move the pdf file to a different monitor. How do I stop this?

Does Firefox switch to full screen if you press F11 ?
You can also try the F10 key to see if that brings up the menu bar.

Unable to open existing PDF files after downloading Adobe reader

I have an Advent 7085 PC with Windows XP Home version 2002 service pack 2. After downloading the latest Adobe Reader 8 I cannot open any of my existing PDF files, nor can I open any new ones. I have several times downloaded it, tried it and found it doesn't work so have then deleted it from the system and rebooted. Downloaded again only for the same thing to happen again. Error message says that Adobe Reader 8.1 has encountered a problem and needs to close. Then I am advised to let microsoft know of this problem.
Please!!! Is there anybody out there who knows what the problem might be and help me resolve it?
Thanks

I finally called tech support and this is what we did and it worked for me...First go to start/control panel/add&remove programs. Once the program list is configured, hilite Adobe reader and select remove. Once the program is removed, from the control panel select user accounts. Set up a new user account "test". Through user "test" go into www.adobe.com and select icon to download adobe reader. You do not need to run media player, remove check unless you want to download it. After program is downloaded and copied you can close out of adobe. At that point I was able to open my PDF files without any error message. Tech advised me to keep the "test" user set up, doesn't hurt anything to have it there. He told me that there probably was some settings under my user account that was causing a glitch in the download and that is why we opted to download through a new user account. BTW the tech support was free if you still can't get it to work. Good Luck

Reader 10.1.1 won't open internet PDF files

I downloaded and installed the free Adobe Acrobat Reader 10.1.1 I am unable to open any PDF files online. When I click on a PDF file link I get this message:
There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (103:103)
It is not open and I only use it when I have to open a file that is online. I deleted and reinstalled and still have the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
My system:
Dell Dimension desktop computer
Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 3
DSL internet connection

Have the same problem and, while not a total solution, offer a work-around that might help you temporarily.
And, yes, I'm running XP SP3 as well, so.....
1.) Find the folder where the Reader X lives (on my system - /Windows/Program Files/Adobe/Reader 10.0/Reader).
2.) Locate AcroRd32 - the file with the Adobe icon.
3.) Right click and go to Properties.
4.) Set Campatibility to *Windows2000*
Reply "OK" to everything and try opening your file(s) again......
Now, you'll still get the Error message initially, and intermittantly, but the PDF window won't close; you can read the document and saving the file still works.
Again, it's not a fix, kinda cludgy, but it got me back on track even tho the message popping up is an annoyance.
Maybe Adobe will fix it as I've seen several folks here with similar experiences.

Program won't open most pdf files. Also shuts down internet explorer. How do I solve this problem?

I installed the trial version of Acrobat XI Pro. When I tried to open various pdf files they wouldn't open. Clicking to open the files also caused internet explorer to close. Any help?

My macbook won't open firefox pdf files

About a week ago, my macbook quit opening internet pdf files. I checked for new software updates but it hasen't worked. Please help!!! No error message shows up, just a blank screen.

Hi...
Quit Firefox.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar top of your screen, click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go
Move the Adobe PDF browser plugin (or just PDF browser plugin) from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Firefox. See if that worked...

Since downloading firefox, I can no longer open a PDF file? How do I get my computer to open PDF files?

I am enrolled in college and have to down load graph paper. The teacher posted a link to her copies of graph that we can download at home. The graph paper link is a PDF file and when I click on the link the page opens but it's only a white page. I also have this problem whenever I try to open any PDF file. Usually, the screen goes black. This problem started when I downloaded firefox and I do not know how to fix it. Can you help?

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.
 Cheers, Tom

Acrobat Pro won't open a PDF file.

I know this isn't a Mac question but I've been to Adobe and they are no help. I have PDF files that were created by Acrobat Pro that will not open when I click on the file icon yet, if I open the Acrobat program it will open the file. This is annoying. Has any one experienced this and is there a solution?

Thanks, your response helped. I knew Preview was the default for PDF files but I had changed that (using Get Info) but I failed to notice two important items. (1) The "Change All" button and (2) the "lock icon down in the lower right part of the window. Once I reselected Acrobat as the "opening" program, selected "Change All", AND unlocked the window so that changes would be incorporated, and OH, I even threw in a restart, everything works as expected. Picky, Picky, Picky.
Thanks again.

Problems opening a pdf file after updating

Why is it when I update from 10.1.4 to 10.1.9 I can no longer openup the same pdf file that I could before? I am using Vista home premium.

It says that it is opening but it just sets there and does nothing, If I get out and try again it does the same. The onlyway I can fix it is to uninstall it and then reinstall 10.1.4. But when it updates to 10.4.9 the samething happins. While it is 10.1.4 I have no problem,

My Ipad won't open display PDF files.

When I open PDFs on the internet, I just get a gray screen. I then try to open the PDF in iBooks, but that is unresponsive as well. I do not think that I have downloaded any applications that would cause this problem.
Thank you for your help.

Some PDFs can be slow to open and a grey screen will appear whilst waiting, and they have to be opened on the website before opening in iBooks.

Photoshop CS6 & Lightroom 4 won't open or save files after iMac update 11/2013

My photoshop CS6 has crashed a few times, and it wont open any files nor save them, the same goes for my lightroom 4 & 5. how can this be fixed. I am a mamber of adobe and pay monthly for both my programs. This started after my iMac updated in November 2013. I am a photogrpher and need this fixed asap. Thank you!

In addition to writing up a request for the ability to repair an installation, ask that the updater be made more robust - e.g., capable of fully updating no matter what the state of existing files.
Also make a mental note to be more careful about fooling around with the files inside the Photoshop installation area.
Most folks don't realize that if they change anything other than in the plug-ins directory that they are chancing making future updates fail as well. Even Adobe themselves at some times have suggested changing files to work around problems. But as you point out, the cloud updater ought to be more resilient.

Lenvo User Guide doesn't want open the pdf file. Why!?

Lenvo User Guide application doesn't want open the pdf file after selecting my language. I have Adobe Reader installed on my laptop and application is from oryginal Lenovo cd with drivers. I don't know why. Earlier it worked perfectly. I installed and reinstalled it many times but the problem still exist. Does anybody know the solution?

hi tora117,
Welcome to Lenovo Community Forums!
Can you try right clicking the User guide file and go to General tab and check if the "open with" settings is set to Adobe Reader.
If still won't work download a new User guide from www.support.lenovo.com
Home this helps
Cheers!
