Opening or saving a pdf file from my email

I just got a new computer which operates using Vista. I get many emails with pdf attachments and when I try to open or save them nothing happens. The little window pops up which shows the file transferring but it never finishes. I am not computer savvy and would appreciate anyones help.

I too am having that problem opening files in certain programs, as they open in others. I have installed Adobe reader 8, but it started before I downloaded this program. I updated to Norton Internet Security 08 and that's when my problems started happening. Do you know why the pdf file keeps running as to open, but doesn't? It is necessary that I get this straightened out as my boss has the same problem and we only have one other computer that we can use to open these files. Thank You for your time.

  • Firefox freezes when opening an adobe acrobat (PDF) file from any website

    Firefox freezes when opening an adobe acrobat (PDF) file from any website. This only started happening after the latest update of Firefox was installed. Do you have a fix?

    Hi Susan,
    The Adobe plugin in Internet Explorer is a bit different from the one in Firefox, however they're all made by Adobe and they usually come with Adobe Reader.
    When you open a PDF file in Firefox, it "calls" Adobe Reader to help it read the file. In this case, the Adobe Reader takes over, and it is responsible for freezing your browser.
    I suggest you try the last 4 solutions presented on the [[Opening PDF files within Firefox]] (start with "Re-install the plugin" through "Re-install Adobe Reader").
    Good Luck :D

  • Can I print a pdf file from an email on an HP printer Deskjet 5100?

    Can I print a pdf file received through Email on an HP Deskjet 5100 printer and how?

    Save the file to your hard drive, open it in Adobe Reader and print.  Unless the file has security restrictions against printing, those steps should work.

  • Unable to open a saved/ downloaded pdf file

    Hi
    I get the following error when trying to open pdf file that was downloaded and saved through a java program.
    Adobe Reader could not open 'export.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. (for eg. it was sent as email attachment and was not correctly decoded.
    Any solution or suggestion to this error will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Since you don't tell us anything about your code, we can only guess.
    Here are common solutions:
    - Don't use any of those types when handling your data: char, char[], String, Reader, Writer.
    - Make sure that you really understand what read(byte[]) does and when it returns. (Hint: when ignore its return value or call it outside a loop, then you don't understand it).

  • How do I save an Attachment (PDF file) from an email on my 3G iPhone??

    How do I sae an email attachment to my 3G iPhone (in this case I want to save a PDF file sent to me as an attachment).
    Thks

    You can save the email to a folder. The PDF in reality is saved to the phone in the mail directories folder, and can always be opened and read from your mail app. If you want to save it to your computer, then you can either email it to yourself or download a file sharing app from the appstore.

  • Open Jpg, Excel, word, pdf files from SAP screen.

    Hi SAP Fans,
    We have built a customer screen with some fields at top and ALV grid at bottom (using Container and ABAP 00). In this ALV grid display, we show list of files uploaded into SAP using WS_UPLOAD and stored in cluster table. When user double clicks on any file, we should be able to open file in a pop-up and show its contents. If User double clicks on Excel, it should show Excel file, if user double clicks on Pdf, it should show in Acrobat reader. How is this done ? Do I have to code for each document type ?
    Any help is appreciated.

  • Saving fillable PDF file in Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application

    I'll do my best to explain my situation.
    1. I open the fill-able PDF file from Google Drive with Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
    2. I fill out the pdf form using the Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
    3. Once I'm done filling-in the PDF, I would like to save the file in a specific folder in Google Drive.
    I cannot find any saving option within the Android Adobe Reader Mobile Application.
    The only way around saving was the "Sharing" feature.  It allows the user to share the pdf file using various android applications such as Google Drive, Email, and Evernote to share the file.
    This does not allow for overwriting of the original file.  Therefore, you will create a new file every time you share the file.
    I wanted to know if there was a way to save the file under the same name to overwrite the same file in the Android Mobile version.
    Thanks in advance.

    You need to duplicate(and/or rename) it first (after finding it in the "Documents"  menu tab), then fill it out. This is the workaround for the missing Save/Save as menu. Once you fill out something, and leave the application, the document will be saved automatically.

  • Viewing PDF files from Email

    I just recently changed from a BlackBerry to the new iPhone 4. Other than the known problem, the change has been great. Quick question for those of you more technical sound than me. I receive a large number of PDF files for the kind of work I am involved in. I was traveling yesterday and noticed that I am unable to open the PDF files from the email I received from one of my co workers. In fact, it is not even showing as an attachment although I knew it was coming. Would someone(s) let me know how I can remedy this situation as I am on the road alot and need to ability to view these crucial files. I am really not concerned with making any alterations to the files, just viewing them and then calling the appropriate people to make the changes in house. Your help is greatly appreciate.

    Try if disabling Protected Mode helps (Adobe Reader | Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)).

    WEB://<ProjectFolder>/<subfolder>/Report.pdf

    When i check the mail,i can see the attachment with some size of 8kb,but when I open the file i will get below error:
    "Adobe Reader could not open Report.pdf because it is either not supported file type or because the file has been damaged(for example,it was sent as an m a i l attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)"
    If I try to open the same file by exporting fit to my desktop,it opened properly.
    Anything I'm missing here?

    Here there is one problem,ie in Menu page I can see the 12.1.7(Build40),when I open the workbech,it shows the previous patch 12.1.4(Build 36).Why is it so?
    All of my transactions running fine except the one which I have mentioned in my previous post.
    When I run the transaction mentioned in my previous post,it threw an excption for PDF Table Action block and the error mentioned below:
    [ERROR] Error found trying to execute action 'PDF_Table_0' Exception: [null]
    [ERROR] [PDF_Table_0] Action: Runtime threw an exception. Exception: [java.lang.StackOverflowError]
    When I can check the m a i l, I'm able to open the attached PDF file without error but without data.Is it because of the above mentioned error?
