PDF error message "The file is damaged and cannot be repaired"

Across several versions (upgrades) of Mozilla and from
several sites I have a problem when viewing pages (ie.
from MoinMoin wikis but also other CMS systems) with
embedded PDF documents.
I get an error dialog saying "The file is damaged and cannot be repaired" and a reference to a local cached copy of a
".tmp" file. If I right click on the link and "Save Link"
as a local file then the PDF views correctly (and it renders
correctly within the HTML page with other browsers such
as IE).
The page below (bizarrely) works for me, but similar
documents fail on password protected sites.
Any comments much appreciated. Thanks!

"file is damaged and cannot be repaired" CS3 to CS4

hello,
I was emailed an illustrator CS3 file which I cannot open in CS4. I can open in CS3 but when I try to open in CS4 I get error "this file is damaged and cannot be repaired"
when I open in CS3 I get a message about font inconsistency...but the file still opens.
any suggestions?

Lara,
yes it said something like "some fonts are not supported..etc...would you like to open the file anyway." (sry cant remember verbatim...I had a friend of mine try to open it on her comp which has cs3).
I believe CS3 should substitute the fonts in question, or at least give you the option to substitute them. Did you try saving it from CS3 (with or without font substitution) and then opening in CS4 as I suggested?
CS4 may be more particular than CS3 when it comes to fonts. Illy is more particular than most applications (some applications open files with corrupt fonts that she flatly refuses), and she may have become more particular over the years.

Outlook 2010 error - The file is corrupt and cannot be opened

Hi experts
Im getting the error - "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened", when opening office attachments in outlook 2010.
I’ve tried disabling the protected view options in office which hasn’t fixed the issue, the only suggestion I have seen which I’m sure would work is to delete
the user profile and recreate. This seems a bit over kill to me, does anyone know what files I need to remove to fix the issue.
Thanks

Adobe PDF comes up and says "file is damaged and cannot be repaired" works fine in IE9.

Open a Adobe PDF on this site: http://www.safehaven.com/ and this specific PDF comes up with the "file is damaged and cannot be repaired: JAN30 EUR/USD Triggers Bearish Reversal Pattern into... - MIG Bank

there is something with the pdf itself that is stopping FF from opening it, as when i try opening the same in Crome ... there also i encounter the same problem (the file opens partially and then stops opening). But if i download the same then i can view the same in Acrobat reader properly.
May be the way the pdf was created used something which FF s not able to render (the graphics used in charts etc)
The work around that is available is that you download the file and save it somwhere, then open the same in Acrobat reader separately

I am unable to open a project that I have worked on and saved. I get an error message that the file is damaged and cannot be opened.

Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
3. Delete the Application Preferences
Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
Please review and consider.
Thank you.

Cannot "print" a window as pdf then read it in Adobe Reader; Adobe says the file is damaged and cannot be opened.

Running Firefox 4.0 on an Intel Mac OS 10.5.8. Same problem with Firefox 3.6.16. You can save a Firefox window as a pdf file by using the File dropdown menu and selecting Print. Under Print, you can select PDF, then Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF. Firefox will save the file. If you try to open the file you get an error message that the file is damaged and cannot be opened. I did not have this problem in Safari; I followed the same procedures and the pdf file opened fine in Adobe Reader. Why is Reader rejecting the pdf file produced by Firefox when it did not reject the pdf file produce by Safari?

If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

Protected View Error "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened"

All
I have a problem with Protected View in Office 2010 on Windows 7.
Symptom: When downloading a file from the Internet, the file will not open if launched directly from the source location, or saved locally and then opened. This
is impacting both Word and Excel. I haven’t tested other applications. The user gets the error "The file is corrupt and cannot be opened.".
Expected behaviour: Documents should open in Protected View because they are coming from an untrusted zone (Internet Zone).
Troubleshooting Results:
-      If I turn off Protected View the error goes away and the documents open without
issue (but not in Protected View obviously)
-      If I save the file locally, then copy it to a network drive, the problem goes away (because the zone information is changed?).
-      If I save the file directly to a network location, then open it, the problem does not impact me (also doesn’t open in Protected View)
-      If I repair Office the problem is NOT fixed
-      If I reinstall Office the problem is NOT fixed
The problem doesn't impact all machines, but any new machine I build suffers the problem. All Protected View options are set by group policy and all machines are getting the correct settings.
-       The setting “Enable Protected View for files originating from the Internet” is enabled
-       The setting “Enable Protected View for files located in potentially unsafe locations” is enabled
-      The setting “Enable Protected View for Outlook attachments” is enabled
-      Enable Data Execution Prevention mode is enabled
Has anyone seen this problem or can anyone offer suggestions of where to start looking for the root cause? There are lots of postings on this around the various Internet forums, but most
just suggest turning off Protected View, that is not a valid solution to my mind, Protected View is there for a very sound reason and it is not something I'm willing to turn off, especially when it is working on some machines as expected.
Thanks.
James.

Thanks for coming back, James, and I'm glad you've found the source of your
problem.
As an aside, I had no idea HP made software like that and will take a look
at it - or would if I could. Personally, although I love their hardware, I
wouldn't touch HP software, and the fact that their web page doesn't load
(in IE8) just reinforces my feeling.
Enjoy,
Tony

I cannot download Mavericks. Every time the file download stops a message appears that says the file is damaged and cannot be used to install Mavericks. I delete the file, download again and the same message appears. What can I do?

I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck.

HELP! "This file is damaged and cannot be repaired."

I have been editing a large (25+ MB) PDF in Adobe Acrobat X Pro on a Macbook.
I just tried to open it to continue editing and got an error message:
"This file is damaged and cannot be repaired."
What on earth happened?!?!
A few days ago I saved a compressed version that is 1/10th the size. I can use that if I absolutely have to (it means losing part of my work and not all of my work) but I'm nervous -- what is the difference between a compressed file and a standard file that would make the compressed file 10% of the size? Is it fully functional with edits?
Ideally, if someone could help me remedy my error problem on the main file, that would be preferable -- but I'll also take info on compressed files (I didn't zip it, I just saved it in "Finder" as a compressed file.)

Lara,
yes it said something like "some fonts are not supported..etc...would you like to open the file anyway." (sry cant remember verbatim...I had a friend of mine try to open it on her comp which has cs3).
I believe CS3 should substitute the fonts in question, or at least give you the option to substitute them. Did you try saving it from CS3 (with or without font substitution) and then opening in CS4 as I suggested?
CS4 may be more particular than CS3 when it comes to fonts. Illy is more particular than most applications (some applications open files with corrupt fonts that she flatly refuses), and she may have become more particular over the years.

I keep getting Error 150:30 on my iMac 10.9.5 when I try to open CS4

I recently updated my iMac, now I get the Error 150:30 when I try to open CS4 and Elements...I've already tried to troubleshoot as suggested in other threads and it does not work. Please Help?

Courtesy of R_Kelly:
The 150:30 error means licensing broke.
Two ways to fix this: If you are used to the Terminal app, you download the license recovery package and following instructions carefully, you use the python script in the package. Error "Licensing has stopped working" | Mac OS
If for some reason it doesn't, reinstall CS4 from your discs, or download the CS4 installer here.

File is damaged and cannot be repaired?

Whenever I try to open a needed file on my windows 7 pc, I get the above message. I need the file as soon as possible. Is there any way to repair the file so I can print off the document? I have heard of file repairers, but do they work?

File is damaged or cannot be repaired

I have Adobe Reader on my Vista OS. When I try to open a PDF file, I get error msg:
"file is damaged or cannot be repaired."
Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

If you use a PC, you can use software you already have on your computer to retrieve some of the content. Right-click on the corrupt file and choose ‘Open
With’ and select the Notepad program that comes bundled with every copy of Windows. The resulting file will contain a lot of coding but within that
coding you will see the content. This is perhaps a only really viable with text-only PDFs as when you are dealing with images and forms, Notepad will be swamped with coding and finding the text can be the proverbial needle in the haystack.
Some links might be helpful to you:
I found an article, it may help you to solve the problem:

"The file is damaged and could not be repaired" error when trying to open a PDF in Reader

A few of our employess (only 3 out of over 100 so far) have been getting the error, "The file is damaged and could not be repaired" when trying to open some PDFs. Other people are able to open the same PDF files with no error. It's happening on about 10% of the time. I've read a bunch of threads here with this isue and tried some suggested fixes and nothing has resolved the issue. Here is what I have found works and does not work and the info on their computers:
Computers:
1 Dell Vostro desktop running WIndows 7
1 Toshiba Satellite C55 runnign Windows 8
1 Samsung ATIV Book 4 running Windows 8
All using Adobe Reader XI but we did uninstall that version and tried previous versions and still got the error.
Did Not Work:
As suggested by the company that we use online for claims adjustments where this error is occuring, we tried using a different PDF creator since the files were created using a free PDF creator by the employees. PDF995 and PDFcreator (pdfforge) did not resolve the issue. I then created the PDFs with my Adobe Acrobat, uploaded from my computer to the online program, and that did not resolve the issue.
Saving the file to hard drive and then opening in Adobe did not work.
Turning off Protected Mode and Enhanced Security did not work.
Compatibility View settings enabled in Internet Explorer 10 did not resolve the issue. The previously mentioned claims adjustment software company we use online was code for IE so is not fully compatible with other browsers.
That being said I did try to open the PDF files in Chrome and it also did not work. Same error message.
Does work:
I download the file they cannot open onto my hard drive, open in Adobe Acrobat, Save as a pdf, then email it to them and they can open it via email attachment.
If they close the error and continue trying to open the file over and over sometimes it will eventually open.
Is there a setting in Windows that is preventing them from opening a small % of files some of the time? Thanks in advance for any help!
James

Go to System Preferences and Security and Privacy.
Then change "Allow applications downloaded from" to "Anywhere.
