Pdf attachment will not open or cannot find

Recently downloaded new Reader.
pdf does not open for me to see.
Will download and I have the option to open or save.
either way it shows these functions happen, but I cannot find the pdf, even if saved to desktop to open later.
Cannot open files or print those files.
I did not change anything on the install, just let it run.
How do I fix this issue, where did the files download to, or where are they hiding????????
By the way using Windows Vista.
any help appreciated,
yooper

I have the same problem save for I cannot find my saved PDF in my wordperfect 12 folder.
My 'publish to pdf' shows PDF 5.  Does that have anything to do w/ it?!?
Sounds like the PDF's are being created by Wordperfect. You'll want to find a forum for that application.

  • ITunes will not open as cannot find folder.

    My Documents was moved to a server at work. Now when I try and open ITunes when not on the network, I get the following message:
    The folder "ITunes" cannot be found or created, and is required. The default location for this folder is inside the My Music folder.
    I have removed I tunes and reinstalled and can never get to the ITunes to modify preferences. Any suggestions?

    Welcome to AD!
    What has helped lots of folks with this same error message is a shift-start of iTunes.
    Press *and hold* the shift key while starting iTunes. When prompted, choose to open an existing library and browse to the default ITL file location.
    Vista: C:\Users\ your username \Music\iTunes\iTunesLibrary.itl
    XP: C:\Documents and Settings\ your username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\iTunesLibrary.itl
    Might be a good idea to have Win Explorer display file extensions before trying this.

  • Bookmarked PDF's will not open in browser window

    I just got the latest FF 3.6.6 and installed Nitro from Adobe so that I could open PDF's in the browser. Before upgrading, I could bookmark a PDF and it would still open it in the window. Now it wants to save it. How do I fix this? I bookmark a lot of PDF's because I don't want to save them on my computer, and I use them over and over for my writing.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I upgraded to 3.6 and got Nitro add on

    1. Nitro is NOT an Adobe product.
    2. It is an alternative to Adobe Acrobat.
    3.It currently does not have the ability to display in a browser tab; see 3rd item below.
    <u>Company's web site</u>: http://www.nitroreader.com/
    <u>User forum</u> (click "Help" at the top of the Company's web site): http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf?from_gsfn=true
    <u>User forum thread; no in-browser display</u>: http://community.nitropdf.com/nitropdf/topics/launching_pdfs_in_the_browser_window
    You should be able to open PDF files from the internet directly in a separate Nitro window (not a tab in Firefox) if you change your settings on the Application panel (Tools > Options > Applications for "...PDF Document" content type(s). Read the following 2 articles carefully:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Managing+file+types
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions
    <u>The PDF file will NOT open within Firefox because no browser plugin is provided by the company, but instead</u> will open the Nitro program in a separate window and display the PDF there.
    Somewhat general instructions; I do not have Nitro, so I am guessing at some names and locations on your hard drive and what you will see on the Applications panel. In the Applications panel, use the pull down arrow (see step 4 in the above article, Managing File Types), click "Use Other".
    -If Nitro <u>IS on the pop-up list</u>, click on Nitro, click OK.
    -If Nitro is NOT on the pop-up list, click Browse, go to your installation folder for Nitro (probably on C: drive in your Programs folder), open the Nitro folder, double-click on the executable that will open the Nitro program; nitro.exe/nitroreader.exe (whatever the file is named; you might want to find and open the Nitro program before you begin the process to know the exact executable file name to double-click).

  • Pdf files will not open

    Hi,
    I have viewed through this forum and did not find a problem with similar symptoms.
    I upgraded from Adobe Reader 8 to Reader 9 and then the .pdf files will not open.
    Actions and Observations/Symptoms:
    1)  After I clicked onto the pdf document icon - nothing happens.
    2)  I right click onto the pdf icon and chose "open with Adobe 9" and get the same response.  Nothing happens.
    3)  I go to the the start menu - select Adobe Reader 9 - and the program does not even open.
    =======
    I have since removed Reader 9 and re-installed Reader 8.  I tried the above actions and got the same behaviour.  Not a whole lot happens.  It seems like something is broken after the first initial upgrade.
    In fact - I went to the folder:  
    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader  and
    tried to open Reader by double clicking onto "AcroRd32.exe" and there was no response.
    I'm completely lost!  Can anyone share a fix to my problem?
    Thanks,
    Mike
    Some hardware & OS background info:  Toshiba Laptop - 1.58 Ghz, 3GB RAM - M/S Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3

    I can't explain the cause to the problem - but I found two "work-arounds" to get me running again.
    Workaround #1:
    I found another program (and there are many) on the web that will also read .pdf files.  I downloaded  "Foxit Reader" , installed it and it works.  I can now view my pdf docs!
    However - I got so used to Adobe Reader - I really wanted to get Reader working again.
    Workaround #2:
    I re-installed Adobe Reader 8.
    Instead of running the usual Adobe installation script that I got from the web, I copied (from another PC's C-drive)  the "Reader 8.0" folder and all its contents into my current C- drive directory structure  C:\Program Files\Adobe\.
    I re-booted the PC and can now open my pdf files using Reader 8.
    It seems to work - but I don't know what the effects of this installation method will have in the future - or the interaction it will have with other programs.  I guess when I need to remove the program in the future  - I'll have to do it manually, since it doesn't even register in the "Add or Remove Programs" under Control Panel.
    ===============
    Hope this helps out anyone else with similar symptoms.
    In the original problem, it's unfortunate that there were no error messages whatsoever when I tried opening the pdf files.  It was like as if Reader was not even activated or even loaded on my PC.  I'll bug me for a while - but at least I got Reader working again (for now....)!

    I have a partition on my IMac disk and Windows 7 loaded on one partition.  I tried to open and W7 will not open and cannot repair itself.  Is there a diagnostic/disk repair from Apple that I can try before reloading W7?

    Csound1 What Ive been trying to explain is that I have been running bootcamp, I open the app where the first screen is the introduction, i hit continue, the first time I select "download the latest windows support software fromm Apple" then I return and instead select "Install Windows 7." Then hit continue. The third screen is where I "Create a Partition for Windows" I set Windows to 80 gigs then hit INSTALL. As stated before Bootcamp cannot find the install drivers saying "The installer disc could not be found." My windows software is on a USB drive not a disc, I tried using a virtual disc reader to make it appear that the windows software was running on a disc, still no luck. What I would like to know is how to install windows on bootcamp.

  • New PC with Windows XP, replacing XP. My PDF docs will not open

    New PC with Windows XP, replacing XP. My PDF docs will not open and I am getting the following messages: EITHER  Adobe Reader could not open ‘xxx.doc’ 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). OR  Word will now convert your PDF to an editable Word document. This may take a while. etc.  Help please.

    These are two completely different symptoms.  Please explain exactly what you do when you get either of these messages.  Also tell us your Reader version.

  • PDF files will not open in a Safari (v 6.0.5) browser window

    PDF files will not open in a Safari (v 6.0.5) browser window, OS 10.8.5. Version 11.0.04 Adobe Reader and Plug-ins installed. Both local and internet files do not load. What is happening here?

    Ok. I reloaded v 11.0.04 of Adobe Reader after quiting Safari 6.0.5 . Then deleted the 2 plug-ins AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin . Relaunched Safari and tried to read a pdf from a repository at the URL mentioned in post 10 . The file was loaded and displayed correctly. Also a pdf file from my local disk store displayed nicely as well. What I do not understand is that there is no listing of an Adobe plug in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins , nor does Safari list any Adobe plug ins. So in that case this means that plug-ins for the display of pdfs in Safari windows are no longer needed!
    Adobe Reader version 11.0.04  is now working for me.
    Thanks for the help and the solution C.F.McBlob

  • PDF documents will not open in Adobe Acrobat 5

    I have one computer with XP running Acrobat 5. I now have a second computer running Windows 7 with Acrobat 9 Pro.  When I take PDF documents from the computer with Acrobat 9 Pro to the one with Acrobat 5, the PDF docs will not open - an error message states the file is corrupted.  Why is this hapening and how can it be fixed?
    Thanks for any assistance - confused.

    #1 - The files were moved using a thumb/USB drive and "Safely Remove" was used.
    #2 - You may be on to something here for some: Some were created by AA9 but some others were scanned in and some were from AA8 that I had no trouble before.
    #3 - The only "special feature" is that the PDF files are searchable and some are a PDF of an image.
    These are basic PDF files.
    Thanks for your assistance

  • Embedded pdf files will not open

    Dell Laptop Windows XP up to date, Firefox 4.0, Adobe Reader 10.0.1
    Since updating to Firefox 4.0 certain embedded pdf files will not open forcing me to use my Internet Explorer browser to access these files. Tried all of the FAQ suggestions with no relief.
    NOTE: I can open previously opened files (Firefox 3.___) but not a new one.

    Thank you for the response. I insereted several .pdf files into my MS Word document where they show as Acobat icons. When in MS Word, I am able to double-click on the icons and the files open in Acrobat. I then converted the MS Word document to a .pdf. These icons now only show as pictures and do not open the original inserted .pdf documents.

  • Pdf files will not open upon downloading

    I download a lot of pdf docs for work and want them to open automatically upon download so I can screen them.  Since upgrading to Safari 5.1, when I download files (which has gotten much more cumbersome) they do not automatically open upon download.  Yes, I DO have the "open safe files after downloading" option checked in Preferences.  Any other thoughts?  A solution would be most helpful.  (If anyone has a solution to how I can automatically download files as easily as in prior versions, that would be greatly appreciated also.)

  • Pdf links will not open in ie8 windows 7

    I have installed, uninstalled Adobe Reader 10 and Internet Explorer.  I have tried all the solutions listed in some other posts.  PDF links will not open the files on some web sites, Fidelity.com in particular. I have reset IE8 Advanced Options and Advanced Options Reset, Created another Windows Administrative user, performed clean boot in Windows and run IE8 (no addons) from the accessory menu and unchecked the Display PDF in Browser box in preferences.  None of these options have resulted in correcting the problem.  Adobe Reader 10 works fine on the Fidelity web site in Firefox.

  • PDF e-mail attachment will not open after FF update

    FF 31 and/or 32
    Outlook or GroupWise fat client
    PDF attachments
    After FF updated PDF's were re-associated with FF not the installed PDF program. Used Windows to re associate PDF's to PDF program. No problem, all PDF's open in PDF program UNLESS the PDF is an attachment in an e-mail.
    Open e-mail fat client (doesn't matter the client) try and open the PDF and user gets message stating there is no program associated with attachment. Yet, all PDF's still open with correct PDF program as long as they are not in the e-mail. Now here's the really weird part.....
    If there are two or more PDF's attachments in the same e-mail the first one will not open but the second, thirds, etc attached PDF's will open with the correct PDF program.
    The only temporary solution I have found is to uninstall FF, re-install it and for a 1/2 day the issue goes away. I have not figured out the trigger that resets the issue.
    FF is my go-to browser, but since v 31 this has been happening and if it keeps up, I'm switching to Chrome.
    Come on Tech Support, help us out with this issue.

    Sorry you're having this problem. I think it was previously reported only by Windows XP users.
    When you reinstall, were you making Firefox your default browser? Some users have reported that ''not'' making Firefox the default browser was an effective workaround.
    However, you may have success with this approach, suggested by a user in another thread, which appears to more thoroughly update the Windows registry:
    # Open Adobe Reader / Acrobat
    # Edit->Preferences
    # In the Categories column click 'General'
    # Near the bottom of the page click the button marked 'Select Default PDF Handler'
    # In the dialog, select 'Adobe Reader XI' (or Adobe Acrobat, as the case may be) and click 'Apply'
    # A Windows Configuration screen will appear. Allow it to do its stuff (takes a few minutes), then restart your computer when prompted.
    Does that resolve the issue for you?
