New Adobe Reader instance is opened

Dear SAP developers,
I got the following problem when I open an Interactive Form embedded in WebDynpro for Java with the Adobe Reader Browser Plugin then the JavaScript error dialog is displayed within a new instance of Adobe Reader. I do not want a new instance to be opened. How can I suppress this functionality?

Hi Ruben,
Seems that you have an issue with the Adobe Reader plugin for your browser. Try to uninstall the Adobe Reader and then reinstall it again.
Hopefully it should work.
Cheers,

  • Adobe Reader will not open PDF in browser simple answer.

    I just had this problem and was able to work through it with the help of tech support from TD Ameritrade.  The fix is simple so read on.  After uninstalling and reinstalling all things adobe and trying other recommendations on these forums I was stumped.  I called my broker tech section since I couldn't open their reports and we identified what my specific problem was.  For me, and I imagine some of you this will help and prevent a lot of wasted time.
    Nothing was wrong with my Adobe Reader.  My problem was that I have a 64 bit operating system and both of my default browsers were 64 bit browsers.  I did not know my internet explorer default browser was the 64 bit one until the technician that assisted me informed me that a recent windows update made all 64 bit systems default to 64 bit internet explorer browsers.  You cannot change that default by choosing between 64 bit and 32 bit, because you can only choose internet explorer.  That explains why my attempts to open with a 32 bit browsers always failed.  I also tried with Firefox thinking it was 32 bit and it failed as well.  The technician informed me Firefox is a 64 bit browser and then it made sense.  I guess the recent Adobe reader update caused a change that no longer allowed my 64 bit system and 64 bit browser to open PDF's through the browser. The technician who assisted me has a 64 bit system and only uses 64 bit browsers and can still open PDF's through those browsers.  That confused us for a while until we realized he had his Adobe updater turned off and therefore had not been exposed yet to the update that originated my problems.
    ****ANSWER FOR MY PROBLEM*******The quick answer is use Google Chrome or some other 32 bit browser.  If you set a 32 bit browser as your default, the PDF's will open.  You cannot set Internet Explorer 32 bit browser as your default if you have a 64 bit system and also have 64 bit Internet Explorer.  The windows update prevents you from doing it.  At least that is my understanding. 
    The bottom line is I have the newest Adobe Reader on a 64 bit system and can open any web PDF with Google Chrome set as my default browser, because it is a 32 bit browser.  The new Adobe Reader will not open PDF's with a 64 bit browser in Vista.  A 64 bit system is fine as long as you use the 32 bit browser to open your PDF's in Vista.  I hope this helps some avoid some headaches.  I wish it had been posted when my problem first arose. 
    I think you can use a 64 bit browser in Windows 9 or later, but for Vista the above applies.

    Yes I can create a short cut to internet exp. 32 bit on my desktop and I can even be using Internet expl. 32 bit, but when I try to open a PDF with adobe reader it won't work with internet exp. as my default browser b/c windows will always choose Internet exp. 64 bit which isn't supported yet by adobe reader.  With google chrome as my default browser windows can't choose an unsupported 64 bit browser in its place b/c google chrome doesn't have a 64 bit version.
    My post was for those people who may not have realized yet that windows would not ever choose Internet expl. 32 bit over Internet expl. 64 bit if both exist on their system.  For them it is easiest to just choose a default browser that only has a 32 bit version. 
    If I understood your reply correctly, you were telling me how to create a shortcut to Internet exp. 32 bit on my desk top.  However, having that shortcut on my desk top and opening my browser through it will not prevent the problem of windows choosing my Internet exp. 64 bit browser for pdf's I try to open from the web.  Thank you for your response, but I think the problem that I have tried to explain does exist for many users and can only be fixed by using a 32 bit browser that is not Internet explorer as your default browser.  At some point if windows fixes the update that always chooses Internet expl. 64 bit over Internet expl. 32 bit, then this will all be irrelevant.

  • Adobe Reader could not open 'A9R7D1F.tmp'

    Greetings~
    I have seen others with this issue, but none of their solutions have been able to fix my problem.
    When attempting to open a PDF document from a web site, I receive the following error:
    "Adobe Reader could not open 'A9R7D1F.tmp' because it is either not a supported file type of because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)."
    This is limited to a specific set of computers.  Others within the organization function appropriately.  As such, it is not a web server or network problem.  Here are the specifics of the offending machine(s):  Windows 7, Internet Explorer 8, Adobe Reader 9.3.2.  Note that other machines with this same specs function appropriately.  I have confirmed there are no differing group policies and all are within the same subnet.
    Here is what I have tried.  After each item, the browser was closed and/or system rebooted.  Everyone of these tests resulted with the same error.
    Deleted all history in IE (cookies, temporary files, history, etc.).
    Uninstalll Reader, reboot, re-install Reader, reboot.
    Saved the PDF to the local desktop and tried to open that way.
    Installed an older version of Reader.
    Ensured the following Reader settings are selected: Display PDF in Browser, Allow Fast Web View, Allow Speculative Downloading in the background  (which match machines that are successful).
    Ensure IE browser settings are configured to "Automatically" check for newer versions of stored pages.
    Ensure PDF document is smaller than allowable disk space limit within IE.
    Can anyone help me with this?  I am out of ideas!
    Thank you.

    If you are generating files with anything before %PDF, these files are faulty. It's never been allowed, but Reader used to tolerate it for compatibility with an obscure Mac format.

  • Adobe Reader won't open  Tried installing updated Adobe Reader and error came up in the process and told me to contact software manufacturer.  Could I uninstall current Adobe Reader and then try installing the current AR?  Any ideas?

    My Adobe Reader wouldn't download tickets.  Tried opening Adobe Reader application but it would not open.  I saw my Adobe Reader needed to be updated, so I attempted to install new Adobe Reader.  When it came to finalizing, it said there is an error and can't do.  Any ideas?  I have no functioning Adobe reader.  Should I uninstall old Adobe Reader and then try installing the updated AR?

    (Had to step away & do things) I can't even open up the Adobe Reader application to uninstall; get message it won't open. And now have more things needing to be downloaded to print.  Any ideas on how to open the app, so I can uninstall.  I have a MAC OS X 10.9.4  When the installation initially failed I received this message from Adobe, " Adobe Reader Installation Error  Package name Adobe Reader xi (11.0.07)  Installer: installing abase path/installer: The install failed  (The install encountered an error that caused the installation to fail.  Contact the software manufacturer for assistance.)  It did not specify what the error was

  • Adobe Reader could not open a pdf file - either not supported file type or file damaged

    On March 5th, I started getting the Adobe Reader error message "Adobe Reader could not open a pdf file because it is either not supported file type or the file has been damaged.
    I get this when I try to open the pdf file as an attachment in Outlook 2013 from my G-Mail account.  If I save the attachment and then try to open the pdf document, I get the same error4.
    I get this error message with every pdf file that now comes to me in Outlook.
    If I log on to my G-Mail I am able to open the pdf document.  If I also save the attachment to my computer, I do not get the error message when I open the pdf file. This would suggest the file is okay
    This would lead me to believe the problem maybe with Outlook.
    I'm using Adobe Reader XI v11.0.10
    I'm using Windows 8.1
    Is anyone encountering this same issue with outlook?

    I copied it again.  Do you see it?  BTW, how do I set privacy?  (I'm new at this)
    I opened with two different notepads and got different information.here it is from Windows Notepad.  First few lines are:

    Hey vgamborg,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    This article should help you troubleshoot issues playing sound from the built-in speakers. Try the steps listed, and I quoted a part about the red light.

  • Adobe Reader will not open PDFs

    Adobe Reader will not open any PDFs. It will not open any new PDFs, downloaded from online, or old ones that have already downloaded and saved to a file. I have tried to repair Adobe Reader XI and reinstalled the most updated version. When I attempt to open a PDF, it tries to open it in Micrsoft Word, promting a file converstion (that fails).

    That looks like a perfectly good PDF, but since it's trying to open in Microsoft Word, that means your file association for .pdf files is incorrect.  You should change it to point to Adobe Reader instead of Word.
    If you are on Windows, see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-file-open-program#1TC=windows-7

  • Help With Tools & Highlighting in new Adobe Reader

    Can anyone help me find the tool menu and highlight function in he new Adobe Reader.  When I bring up an online document it no longer has the tool menu option.  There also used to be the adobe logo that you could click on to bring up the tool menu.  Can anybody help?

    Try saving the file and then opening it in the application directly instead of via the browser.

  • Updated, changed, adjusted, etc. pages using Adobe reader are not opening?

    Information and/or Pages were not opening.
    Tried to go through all steps of updating
    Ended up with plugins, add-ons, all updated and inadvertently got Firefox 4 instead of 3.6
    Things are not better
    Believe it is Adobe Reader pages not opening
    The pages are opening in Explorer
    Have been wasting lots of time working on this for days
    Also, Browser activity seems to be happening slower since these changes (like there are two systems fighting)

    I checked for newer driver  and the result is in attachment. I have a doubt my system has NVIDIA GeForce GT520MX already there. If I download GeForce 314.07 driver will it harm my system ? Pls.revert.

  • Adobe Reader could not open 'xyz.pdf'

    Hi,
    From my project I download pdf file. PDf file download in particular directory is successfully.
    But when I open that PDF then I got Error Message.
    "Adobe Reader could not open 'XYZ.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example. it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). "
    so what's problem? how can fix this bug?
    My file download code
                        this.response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename="+fileName+".pdf");
                              fileData = new byte[(int)file.length()];
                              in = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                            byte[] outputByte = new byte[4096];
                            //copy binary contect to output stream
                            while(in.read(outputByte, 0, 4096) != -1){
                                outputStream.write(outputByte, 0, 4096);
                            in.close();
                            outputStream.flush();
                            outputStream.close();

    Is the downloaded file a valid PDF file?  Just by naming something *.PDF does not make it a PDF file.

    why am I getting this error message when I try to open a PDF file?  Adobe Reader could not open 'SBA 413.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

    It's difficult for anyone to say how to fix it. Try getting a new copy of it. Did you download it from a web site, as an email attachment, or something else?
    I donwloaded that form from the SBA web site and it worked fine for me. It is an XFA form created in LiveCycle Designer, but those should work fine with the desktop versions of Adobe Reader. So try downloading it: http://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/SBA%20413_0.pdf

  • Why is it that everytime I try to download Firefox 4 my Adobe reader can't open it because it is a damaged file? Because of this I am not able to download it. Not sure I want to since I see so many other people having problems with it.

    I will start the process of downloading Firefox 4 and then get the message that my Adobe Reader can't open the file because it is damaged or sent through an e mail. I was not in my e mail when I tried to download the update. This isn't the first time that this has happened. I gave up downloading updates in the past just because I would encounter this same problem.

    When you start the download, are you chooseing Save or Run?

    When I try to open Adobe Reader, it just opens a gray page and then closes by itself. This also applies to any pdf files I try to access; they'd all follow the same pattern: Gray page-->automatically closes after 2 to 3 seconds time. I have tried accessing the Eula.exe via C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, however, the only available button for me to click is the "Decline" button and not the "Accept" license agreement.
