Imac froze when opening powerpoint attached to email

How do I unfreeze my computer?  I opened a .ppt attched to email and it will not load and the preview dialog box is frozen...can't close it and can't hard shutdown my computer...it comes right back to same screen.  What do I do?

Use ForceQuit to shutdown the offending app. A PowerPoint document will not load unless you have either PowerPoint or Keynote installed. It's best to import a file prior to attempting to open it. If you don't know how to use Force Quit the keyboard shortcut is Command-Option-esc

  • Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

    Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. Open Outlook 2013
    2. Open email message with PDF attachment
    3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
    4. Close Adobe Reader
    Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
    Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
    Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
    Has anyone else experience this problem?  If so, have you found a work-around?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
    I had this problem happening in Outlook.
    If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
    The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
    The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
    Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
    Close down Outlook and re-start it.
    Problem solved! Just dont know how  or why.

    It worked for me with Win 7 and OL 2003. Why? Who cares ... It is working.

  • When opening attachments from my email, they are opening in HTML.pdf.  When viewing, they are nothing but symbols. Any ideas?

  • Ver. 9.4.2 error msg when I click Attach to email: "No profiles have been created...

    My Acrobat Ver. 9.4.2 has the following error msg when I click Attach to email: "No profiles have been created.."
    I have created the profile in Windows 7 and it works fine with all of the Microsoft Office programs. I use Thunderbird email.
    I've followed the corrective measures listed by Adobe to no avail. Can anyone offer some help?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It is possible that even though you are using Thunderbird, Windows might have made outlook your default email client once you installed Microsoft Office. Since there is no email profile set in Outlook, it throws an error "No profiles have been created".
    A work around can be to make create an email profile in Outlook and make sure that it is set as default email client by selecting it as default in "Default Programs".
    Hope that helps.
    PS: Adobe does not officially support Thunderbird.
    Thanks,
    Abhilasha

  • There was an error opening document.  Access denied. Cant open pdf attached to emails

    I just upgraded to Acrobat Reader x and can't open files attached to emails in Outlook 2010.   If I save the file, I can open it.   I assume it has something to do with protected view or such but can't find where to change settings.   I can open .doc and .xlsx files attached to emails so it seems to be only an issue with .pdf files attached to emails in Outlook.   Suggestions?

    To make things simple for you, here are two ways for you fix the problem:
    A. Fix One PC
    Launch Adobe Acrobat Reader X
    Go to: Edit > Preferences...
    Click on "General" in the left pane.
    Uncheck "Enable Protected Mode at startup"
    You will prompted with a dialog box to remind you to close the application for the change to go into effect. Click Yes.
    Click OK to save your change.
    Exit Adobe Reader
    B. Fix Several PCs in Your Organization
    Following the above steps aren't practical if you have Adobe Acrobat installed on 1,000+ computers in 30 regional offices! Push this registry setting using your standard software deployment software.
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\10.0\Privileged]
    "bProtectedMode"=dword:00000000
    Microsoft Outlook and other email clients
    I hear this will also fix the "There was an error opening this document. Access denied." error that is occurring with any email client, including Microsoft Outlook Express; Microsoft Outlook 2010, 2007, 2003; Eudora; Mozilla Thunderbird.

    Changing the DPI to 120 won't affect the font size of the menu bar in the Editor.  See this FAQ for what happens when you change the DPI:

  • Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes

    Word 365 crashes when opening an attachment in Notes.  I have tried a quick repair and an online repair.  I have uninstalled Office 365 and reinstalled it.  I have tried opening WINWORD in safe mode. 

    So the attachment itself is OK, and Word can open it successfully on the desktop. In this case, issue tends to be more on the Lotus Notes side.
    We don't have a test environment for this currently, I'd suggest you check the Lotus Notes forum and see if other customers are having similar issues and any solutions out there.
    On the Word side, you can check the event logs to see if there is anything useful there.

  • When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    When opening Powerpoint, the file opens outside of the screen, and I cannot use it, nor can I open a new ppt. How do I rectify this?

    Usually the Window menu allows you to adjust window placement in Microsoft Office products.
    If not, connect an external display or projector and change the resolution to the maximum.   
    Save the document with the window residing on the main screen with the Dock.
    That will force it to open on the main screen in the future.

  • Error when opening PowerPoint related to Data Execution Prevention Mode

    I am experiencing an error when attempting to open a PowerPoint file. . Here is the full message: "powerPoint is experiencing a serious problem with PowerPoint com add in. This add-in is incompatible with Data Protection Execution Mode and should be disabled or upgraded to the latest version. Do you wish to disable?" I am using PowerPoint 2010 and Adobe Presenter version 8.

    I've continually experience the same issues. I have updated to Presenter 8.02.
    If I open a project by double-clicking the .pptx file I get the following error message:
    "Run-time error '-2147467259 (80004005)
    SlideShowWindow (unknown member) :Invalid request. Automation rights are not granted."
    If I then enter the Presenter tab and click an option (for instance "Settings") Powerpoint crashes and restarts itself. Once restarted the following error message is presented:
    "PowerPoint experienced a serious problem with the 'adobe presenter powerpoint com adding' add-in. This add-in is incompatible with Data Execution Prevention mode and should be disabled or upgraded to the latest version. Do you wish to disable this add-in from loading?"
    I can often crash Powerpoint with the same DEP warning by closing the presentation with the window's "X" button - Powerpoint restarts itself and gives the same DEP warning as above.
    I normally choose to not disable and continue working. If I then go to "Settings" in Presenter again, it will open without problem. It seems that after four to six occurences like this, Presenter will then be disabled by Powerpoint and require resetting in the File-Options-Addins section.
    Alternately, if I open Powerpoint first and then open my project through the File-Open or Recent Presentations list I do not get the Run-time error mentioned above and usually can open a Presenter option ("Settings") without crashing Powerpoint. I can also close the project without incedent if I use the File-Close menu as opposed the the "X" button.
    I am running Win 7 64bit, Powerpoint 2010 32bit with Presenter 8.02.
    Sincerely hoping support is continuing to monitor these threads, as this one was started in November without much response.

  • 500 internal server error when opening file attachment

    Hi all,
    I dont know whether im placing my query in the right place. if not pls advice.
    I have uploaded documents to content management from EP portal. The name of the attachment is stored in SAP custom table and the physical file is stored in EP->content management. When i go content mangement and click the attachment, im able to download the file in most cases. But for one employee, when i go content admin -> i can see the attached file name. when i try to open the attachment i am getting error message "500 Internal server error. Please contact your content admin".
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks!
