Thanks in advance for your help.

I have the same problem, I recently had to buy a new computer, it uses windows vista and when I went to my financial institution to download my statements I could no longer save the pdf forms. This is something I did monthly when I was on my windows xp machine. When I tried the save as button in the adobe page the button was there and you could click it but nothing happened after that. I upgraded reader to version 9.2 and tried but this time the save as button was no longer there. I went to another machine which had version 9.1 and vista, the button was there but would not function. My bank says I should be able to save the form and the save as button was not greyed out.
Under document properties it says

Problem opening pdf files with Adobe Reader in Windows 7

I bought a new Dell (Inspiron 5110) with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium (Version 6.1 SP1, 64 bit) and pre-installed Adobe Reader X (10.1.1). I cannot open ANY of my old pdf files with the Adobe reader (even after I re-installed the Adobe Reader). On another computer with Windows 7 I get the same error message. When I installed several other pdf-readers (Sumatra, Foxit, ..) I can still not open the pdf's -- but all the pdf's still open under Windows XP on my old computer and they also open on all my colleagues' non-Windows 7 computers. So it appears to be a Windows 7 problem. The Adobe error message says 'Adobe Reader could not open _.pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (…..).
N.B.: I can download pdf files from the internet and can then open these 'new' pdf files with Adobe Reader X.
N.B.2.: Most of the 'old' pdf files are scientific articles downloaded from various journal websites 2002-2011, so their quality should be out of question.
N.B.3.:I've transfered the files via memory stick and portable HD.
N.B.4.: If I try to open the pdf's via 'Open with' the problem remains the same.
N.B.5.: When, on my Win7 Dell, I've uploaded/attached one of these old pdf files to an email the rtecipient could not tead it. But he could read it when I'd sent the same file from my old Win XP computer.
N.B.6.: I have repeated this last observation: When I upload an old pdf file on my Win7 Dell to my email account and then send it to myself, I cannot open/read it on my Win XP (nor on the Dell, of course). Although the file size is precisely the same.
N.B.7.: When I download a new pdf on my Dell, then upload/attach it to an email also on the Dell and send it to myself, I can download and read the attached pdf on both computers.
Would be grateful for any suggestions.

This is really strange.
Please correct me if I am wrong, but from what I can understand, any PDF which is launched on your Win 7 OS fails to open, even though the same file works perfectly fine on your Win XP machine?
Could you please run a full system anti virus scan on the said PDFs that are present on your local system. It could be a case of infected PDFs.
Also, it would be great if you could try and download some of the erroneous PDFs from the web again, and see if you experience the same behavior.
Thanks

How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader instead of google?

Firefox is unsucessfully using google to open pdf files. How do I get firefox to open pdf files with Adobe reader?
Message was edited by: veeryTalonted

"Google" is a search engine (website) and NOT (repeat: NOT) a PDF viewer. It can't and won't open PDFs in any real or imaginable way.
Firefox added their own proprietary PDF viewer with version 20 - they're on 21 now. I'll be the first to admit "it sucks". You CAN'T fill in PDF forms with it, and you can't email them from the page like with Opera, Safari or Chrome (which use the reader plug-in still).
Unfortunately, the ONLY option you have now that they've added it and killed the ability for the Reader plug-in to work with Firefox, is Tools>Options>Applications - select Portable Document Format(PDF) and choose "Use Adobe Reader (Default)". What that will do is FORCE Firefox to download the PDF instead of opening it in their terrible PDF viewer in the browser window.
Or... use one of the other browsers I mentioned. They're all free.

Hi Ajlan,
To fix my problem, i uninstalled adobe reader X with "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool", rebooted the server, installed Adobe Reader XI and rebooted again.
For some users, this fix the problem but with some others i had to define Adobe Reader by default again.
I tried without use "Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool" before and adobe reader X wasn't really uninstall.
Thanks,

Open PDF file with Adobe Reader - Asks me what Firefox should do - every time

Hi,
Everytime I want to open a PDF file, Firefox asks me 'What should Firefox do with this file'.
I have Open WIth Adobe Reader (default) selected and I have the 'Do this automatically...' box checked.
So it seems to me that Firefox should not ask me every time.

Hi - I don't want it to always ask; I want it to never ask.
Having said that, I changed my option setting to 'always ask' and the next time I tried to open a PDF document, the dialog box opened asking me what to do. The 'Do this automatically...' box was unchecked as expected.
I checked the 'Do this automatically...' box and now Firefox no longer asks.
Weird way to solve the problem, but it appears to work fine now.
Thanks

How do I open a PDF file with Adobe Reader if it is in iBooks

I have a number of PDF files in my iBooks library. I just downloaded Adobe Reader for the iPad. I can't see how I can open those PDF files. The only thing I seem to be able to do with them is to open them from iBooks directly. Doing that does not provide me with the features that Adobe Reader would provide (such as searching for particular text, etc.).

Use iTunes to save the PDF FROM iBooks, and to add them to Adobe Reader.
Connect your iPad to your computer. Bring up iTunes on your computer.
To save a PDF FROM iBooks, click on "Books" in the Library section on the left. Select the PDF you want to save and right-click and choose Show in Finder (Show in Explorer in Windows). Go up one level in your computer hierarchy and you'll see all the "Books" (PDFs and eBooks) in iBooks. You can leave them here if you want to view the PDFs in iBooks in the future, or drag them to the Desktop.
To move the PDF TO Adobe Reader:
Return to iTunes. Click on the iPad on the left in Devices. Click on the Apps tab. Scroll down the the File Sharing section as shown below. Click on Adobe Reader. Click the Add button and select the PDFs you identified in the previous step. They'll be added to Adobe Reader

Opening .pdf files with Adobe Reader?

Hello everyone
I am using Windows 7 (64 bit) and was using Adobe Reader 10 X but found I was unable to read my older .pdf files by double-clicking them as the wrong program's icon was linked to them. No problem I thought so I right clicked on a .pdf file and tried using the open with but the 2 programs listed in the default were both wrong and not Adobe Reader plus the 16 alternates underneath, none of which were reader either. No matter I thought so I used browse and sent myself to C:\Program Files (x86)\AdobeReader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe and pressed ok but it still didn't enter the list! Weird.
Spent some hours trying to find a solution by searching a popular search engine (yes the G one lol) and I managed to find a couple mentioning fiddling around with the registery which I was hesitant about but eventually did and now the only difference is that the 2 default programs previously listed had now gone but the other 16 are still there (still none for Adobe Reader!) and still browsing/adding doesn't work.
I have now just about reached the stage where I'm ready to pull my hair out in frustration. Can anyone help/advise with this please? I don't understand it at all. I have now gone back and am currently using Reader 9.4.3, although it still won't show up on the "open with" list etc.
One last thing and this is strange (to me at least) but if I open Adobe Reader and then use its "open" feature to open one of the same aforementioned .pdf files, it opens it just fine. It's when trying to open the file(s) directly by double clicking them or using open or open with that's causing the problem.
Thank you in anticipation
Nick

You can try the following:
right click on the item you want to open.
Then select open with: then select default program.
Then you browse to your new Adobe Reader executable, and set the always use this program checkbox.
should do the trick.

Mas

Unable to open PDF files with Adobe Reader v11.0, in Windows 8, using C# Process.Start()

I have been able to open PDF docs using C# API Process.Start("Full_path_To_the_PDF_File")
in windows 7 or windows 8 with all previous versions of Acrobat32 reader.
However, with v11.0, the same command, in Windows 8,
does not open the PDF document. I can see the Acrobat(32) started in the task manager,
but the document does open. Not sure how I can troble shoot
this problem.
As a test, I created ta batch file, with a simple command that calls AcroRD32.exe with a PDF file as a parameter. When I executed the batch file in cmd window, it opens the PDF document. If I execute the batch file using Process.Start(), again it does not
work. The CMD window opens but, the document does not open. The cmd window just stays open.
So, there must be something with opening the PDF using the Process.start() command.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,

This is something Adobe has to troubleshoot. Probably the pdf file association is broken. I suggest you to visit forums.adobe.com to ask Adobe about your problem.

Is it possible to add bookmarks to a PDF file with Adobe Reader for iOS?

In the App Store write-up on this app, it said that one could "Use bookmarks to jump directly to a section in your PDF file." But I don't see how one can add such bookmarks. Do they only mean that you can use bookmarks that were already in the document before you open it in Adobe Reader?

Dennis (or any Adobe rep),
Any updates to the OP's question? I'm with a large government agency, and we're moving away from GoodReader for reasons I can't go into here, and the ability to add user-defined bookmarks within the app is a mandatory feature for the document reader we select. I have the latest version of Adobe Reader (11.6.1) installed on my government iPad, and the ability to add user-defined bookmarks still seems to be missing. Does Adobe have any plans to add this feature, or is it already present and I'm simply overlooking it?
Thanks,
Cam
