Open PDF attachments from links in PDF

I've attached four files ( 2 images + 2 Matlab files) to a PDF document with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
Now I want to create a link within the PDF to open each attachment, in order to make it possible for the reader to open these files while reading the PDF.
Currently, I only manage to create links to the files on my personal computer, and not the ones attached to the PDF.
Who can help me? Thanks already.

You can use the following code to launch a file attached to a PDF:
this.exportDataObject({ cName: "Full_Name_Of_File_Goes_Here.XXX", nLaunch: 2 });

Can't open jpeg attachments from my IMAP account on iPhone 4s

I CAN open email jpeg attachments from a POP account on my iPhone 4s (IOS 5.0.1) but NOT from my IMAP account. Is this a known bug? Open remote images is set to "On". No problems on my old iPhone 3Gs.

Absolutely, but can't immediately find how to contact them and their website only gives FAQs and Troubleshooting Guides that don't include this problem. Just hoping that a fellow iPhone user has a solution.

HT4993 I am unable to open word attachments from my work email ever since I bought the 5c. The word documents just flutters but will not open

I am unable to open word documents as attachments from my 5c. I never had the problem with the 4s. Is it something in the settings?

Working on reviewing book chapters for a large NPO and have a big problem trying to open multiple Word files attached to incoming emails. Am using OS 10.5.8 and AOL email account, Word for Mac 2008 with auto-updates. If more than one Word file is attached, I get a message, "filename.doc uses a file type that is blocked from opening in this version." None of the suggested work-arounds to open the file (such as from within Word) will work.
Since you didn't describe "the suggested work-arounds" I can only guess whether you've tried this, but in that message there should be a paperclip icon on the left at the bottom of the header. If you drag that icon onto your computer's Desktop, you should see the attachment(s) there. Can you open them by double-clicking?

Open/save attachments from a website forum link is not working

Every time I click on a .doc or .docx or PDF it tells me I have chosen to open index.php and wants to open it in Dreamweaver. Other forum members using Firefox are having the same problem. Internet Explorer does open/save the document correctly so it isnot a forum problem.

Unable to open .WAV attachments from browser-based email

My apologies if this has been answered in another thread. I've been searching the Board and haven't come up with a solution in another post.
I recently travelled to a conference and took just my PlayBook. I had wifi connection and so used the browser to log into our Microsoft Exchange server at work. Our phone system emails WAV files to us when someone leaves a message, and I tried to open these through the browser to no avail. I am able to download the WAV files to the 'Downloads' folder on the PB, but then can't open them. I get an "unsupported media file" message whenever I try to open them. I even tried renaming the files in case the PB didn't like our phone system's naming convention. Unless I'm reading the OS2 manual incorrectly, WAV files are supported, are they not?
Just to clarify, I'm not using the Bridge feature; I'm using the browser to access and download attachments to my PB. Other file types, such as PDF seem to work, I just can't get the WAV files to work.
Thanks for any assistance you can provide (including a link to another post that I've missed in my search).

I just got off the phone with support. First, he claimed that WAV files are not supported (although the user guide claims it is). Next, he suggested that WAV files that are transfered through BB Desktop will work, but not files that are downloaded from attachments. Finally, he stated that the file must be in the Music folder in order to work. I was able to use AIR Browser to move the file over to the Music folder, but it still won't play. When BB Desktop syncs music files over, does it create a specific subdirectory in the Music folder? Has anyone been able to get a WAV file to play (regardless of how it got on to the PlayBook)?

This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect....opening Word docs from link in web page

It's the ahla.org website. It has both pdf files and Word docs. The pdf links open in the browser or Adobe but the Word doc links open the option at the bottom of IE11 that just says "Open" or "Cancel". When I choose
open, it gives the error about policy restrictions or something similar depending on if it's Word 2007 or 2013. If I could even find an option to have it "Save" and open after download that would be helpful. I can right click the link
and choose save as but this is an office full of attorneys and they can't find the download folder afterwards.
This isn't the issue with Chrome being installed/uninstalled because it does it on computers where it's never been installed. It's not a group policy setting as it does it at the office or home PC.

Hi,
ahla.org redirects to
https://www.healthlawyers.org/Pages/home.aspx
... its a mess
eg. the login link is http://admin.healthlawyers.org:8080/_login
any error message with "Restriction" in it is from Group Policy.
what you can try
Tools>Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default"
Trusted Sites icon, sites button, remove ANY reference to
http://ahla.org or http(s)://www.healthlawyers.org (IE has security restrictions preventing navigation between sites of lower integrity).... Other userAgents do not use the same security model as MSIE.
the https protocol (secure web sites) works in any IE security zone.... If a site uses https, you do not have to place it in the Trusted sites list. It should work (encrypt) just as well in the internet zone (default).
Hover the mouse over the pdf/doc hyperlink... its uri will appear in the status bar or at the bottom of the IE window... note its address. IT MUST point to the healthlawers.org domain. It should also be using the same protocol as the current web page. If it
uses the https protocol, check "Internet Options>Advanced tab, uncheck "Do not save encrypted files to disk"
As I said.... it is likely that the above settings are controlled by Group Policy.

Can no longer open .doc attachments from email

I can see the attachments at the bottom and I can click on them and it looks like it is processing (the little wheel spins), then nothing.
PDFs open fine.
Any ideas?

Check out this page on how to reset. The problem you're facing usually can be solved by resettting:

I can't open new tabs from links in a site, while it is possible from chrome.

In this site http://www.thepressproject.gr/ I can't open the links in new tabs, while for the same site using chrome I can. When I right click on the link, i don't have the usual options (open in new tab, open in new window, bookmark etc.). It is as if it doesn't "see" the links at all and the options are for the main page.
What is wrong?
(I am sorry for my english, I hope I make sense!)

That is a really strange issue. I've never heard of it before nor can I figure out how to fix it. What I'd recommend doing is disabling all your add-ons to see if that fixes the problem. If it does, one of your add-ons is causing the issue. If it doesn't, try [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|starting Firefox is Safe Mode]] to see if the issue disappears. If the problem doesn't happen in Safe Mode, it's a problem with something that runs in Firefox when you start it normally (could be settings, plug-ins, add-ons, etc). If you can't figure out what is causing the problem in Safe Mode or you know the problem but can't solve it, the easiest thing to do is to [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems|reset Firefox]] or completely reinstall Firefox, described below:
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]].

How can I open email attachments from an Exchange server?

When I am at home and accessing emails on my business email address I have to go through a Microsoft Exchange server. I can read the emails but whenever I try to open or download an attachment, I get the message: "To open this attachment, you must save it to your disk. Right-click the link, and then click Save. With a single-button mouse, hold the button down over the link, and then click Save."

according to MS KB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/278061
That file is made when someone is using Rich text format and attaches a file. Have them switch to either HTML or plain text and reatatch the file and you should see the proper attachments.

After updating Firefox, I am unable to open word attachments from my Outlook email, although the download works when I check emails in Internet Explorer

Following a Mozilla update, Jave console has been disabled and is incompatible with the new upgrade. I'm not sure if this is affecting my ability to open word documents that are attached to email, but I am unable to do this when I open my emails though Firefox. If I open them in Internet Explorer, the .doc file will open normally. I just prefer to use firefox rather that internet explorer

Can't open photo attachments from Gmail through Safari - Ipad2 ios7.1

I have an ipad2, running ios7.1
If I try to open a photo attachment from www.gmail.com (in Safari, not Mail app) it causes my ipad to hang.
Here's what happens for a 2mb test jpg I just sent myself:
1. Open email in Safari
2. Click on the thumbnail or photo.jpg hyperlink at bottom of message
3. A new tab opens in sarari, pointing to mail-attachment.googleusecontent.com
4. The progress bar moves between 30 to 70 % of the way across and then hangs. It never fully loads
5. The ipad is no longer responsive, you can't close safari
6. All other apps hang or become super slow
This is very frustrating and I regret updating to the latest ios. I've tried restarting and cleaning my cache/history etc and it makes no difference to the problem.
What's the fix please? Thanks

Thanks, but doesn't really help the situation, which is that safari can't open my pictures for some reason. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
