According to Microsoft Support Engineer (Job Sam Varkey) you need to follow either or both of these two methods:
Method 1: Uninstall all the instance of Adobe reader and Adobe Acrobat (if you have this) and install the latest version of either and see if it helps. Reader can be downloaded from this link:
<http://get.adobe.com/reader/>
Please uncheck the box that asks you to install third-party crapware!!
Method 2: If the issue still persists, perform a system restore and check if it helps. Let me know if you need instructions how to do this. This is an operating system function so perhaps you should ask on Microsoft Windows Forums
The error is in fact a file corruption of the "core.dll" of the acrobat reader. so it is best to uninstall your old copy first then install a new one.
Hope this helps.

My reader will not open a PDF file that I have downloaded from a government web site (an application form) - it states that the file is not good. I can open on the web site but not from my mac computer

Do you have a link to that document?

Hey ilyaz20360341,
Could you please specify how exactly did you transfer Acrobat from one MAC to other.
You might need to deactivate the software from your old machine and then activate it on the new one with the same serial number (for Acrobat license) or Adobe credentials (for Acrobat subscription).
If you have done the same way, then let me know if you are able to open Acrobat itself.
Do you get any specific error message while opening a PDF?
Hope to get your response.

Anubha

Im unable to open the pdf file for the code to redeem Mountain Lion:the '*****'file could not be opened. it may be damaged or in a format that preview doesn't recognise

I've tried opening the file in ibooks, on ipad, in Safari, and straight from e-mail, but it can't open the .pdf file. Could it be corrupted? I'm brand new to the MBP so may be missing something obvious!

If Preview won't read the pdf file, try Adobe Reader. It is possible, of course, that the file may actually be damaged, as Preview should be able to open the file.

'failed to open the PDF file' error - Indesign CS3 on Mac

Hi,
Whenever I place PDFs that were created by any other app besides indesign or Illustrator I get a 'failed to open the PDF file' error, previously these PDFs were fine to place but all of a sudden they're not... Help?
I'm not too keen on opening in Illustrator and resaving for the rest of the foreseeable future either...
Jared

Thanks for the reminder, Scott.

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)

Failed to open the PDF file

I have to place a large number of PDF files. Sometimes I get an error: "Failed to open the PDF file". In the InDesign Forum I found that this also happens in the GUI from time to time and that the workaround is to turn on the Show Import Options. But this is obviously not an option for me.
Is there any alternative?
Thank you, Ralf

When you retry, is it always the same PDF?
Otherwise I'd play around like
- catch the error
- perform some potential cleanup of resources (files, memory), e.g. SaveAs, or a Close-Reopen cycle
- retry the same PDF

Open the pdf file from forms6i

Hi,
how to open the pdf file from forms6i.
can anyone help me regarding this.
Thanks,
Ansaf.

Hi,
The HOST built-in does not return any error or message back to the Form.
You will have to use some other means to first find out whether the file exists or not. E.g. you could use TEXT_IO.FOPEN to open the file in Read mode. If the files is not found the handle returned will be null, and that will be condition you have to process to show a message or pop an alert.
Make sure you close the file with FCLOSE, irrespective of whether the file is found or not, before you open the File for viewing.
Regards,

Firefox will not open any pdf files

FF will not open any pdf files with built in viewer or adobe. I have set applications in all different ways with no luck. PDF works with IE.
I have ff 33.1.1 and Win 7 and i have tried all suggestions concerning pdf. I even downloaded ff again, uninstalled oldff, and installed new. no luck. all i get is a pop up stating ...download is in progress, please wait.... but it never loads. started after last update. Is ther a way to delete the last update to firefox?
thanks

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac).
#In the Options (Preferences for Linux and Mac) window, select the ''Applications'' panel.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right hand side you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Safari is not opening any pdf file?

safari is not opening any pdf file,it shows blank!I deleted acrobat thing and whole acrobat reader but its still the same problem in my mbp mid 2009 with new mountain lion.

I solved that problem ! some months ago i installed speed download which is not compatible with present safari because in speed download there was a plugin for safari & in this plugin there was instruction for .pdf download,also any .dmg file download.so all you have to
Just delete the acrobat reader plugin from library~internet plugin~ acrobat reader plugin & libary~ internet plugin

Doesn't open the PDF file (i.e. articles, books pages). It appears a black page. Thanks for help

Safari doesn't open the PDF file (articles, book page, etc). It appears a black page. Before that it was working perfectly. Thank for your help

Try this ...
Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go.
If you see the: AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

I cannot view PDF in Firefox at the first time but once I manually open the PDF file from my local computer, I can view other PDF files via Firefox webbrowser

I install Adobe Acrobat 9 in my laptop which runs on windows 7. I use Firefox 3.6.8 and have the problem with the PDF file. The problem is I cannot open the PDF file in Firefox web browser at the first time I launch firefox. It shows a warning box without any message. Only OK button is shown so I can close it. However, if I manage to open the PDF file from my local computer by just using adobe acrobat itself then the PDF can be opened in the Firefox web browser. I followed the instruction on the mozilla help but nothing works for me. The problem still exists. I wonder if anyone have the same problem like me and know how to solve this. Thank you so much

Hi there!
I cannot help you, but I think we have a common problem: We got a system here running Vista SP1 with Acrobat 9 standard on it. When we open a pdf file it works normally, but when we open another pdf file, we see the first one in that second window.
Think that missing option to watch several files within a single window-thing messed up more than meets the eye ... but as we just purchased the 15 licenses, we have to use version 9.
I didn't find any clues on this problem, but I will post any new hints I get.

I loaded adobe reader and I can not open a pdf file. It keeps telling me I need adobe acrobat.

What is your operating system?
You don't need Acrobat to view PDF files; can you post a screenshot of that message?
Also, is this a local or online PDF? If online, in what browser?
