PDF does not open. Opens in Microsoft Front Page

My Adobe Reader was working fine until suddenly every time I try and open up a PDF it goes to a Microsoft program and asks to download a file I do not have. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Adobe Reader and it still does not work. Help!

Hi CLaudio and thanks for your speedy response.
FYI, I was able to resolve the issue by saving a PDF document on my desk top, and then going to "open with" Adobe 9.2 "these kinds of files all the time"
You wonder how these things happen out of the blue.
Thanks again, Charlie

  • PDF does not automatically open when the PDF is generated

    Here are my conditions:
    Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Abobe Acrobat9 Pro version 9.4.2
    "View Adobe PDF results" is checked under Adobe PDF Printing Preferences/Adobe PDF Settings
    Here is the problem I am facing:
    When I print a simple text file under Notepad to Adobe PDF (listed under Devices and Printers), a PDF file is generated but it does not open the newly generated file as it ought to.
    If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate them. I already went through the Repair Acrobat Installation routine. It didn't help.
    Thank you.

    Bill was suggesting an alternative approach, making this the default setting in distiller. This is a preference settings in Distiller. I don't have Acrobat 9 on my Windows machine, but this is what is looks like on the Mac:
    You want to check the View PDF when using Distiller Check box.

  • When creating PDFs, the PDF does not open.

    I am using Acrobat Pro X...and have had no problem creating PDFs.  Suddenly today when I create the PDFs, although they are created, the PDF does not automatically open upon creation (I have to go to the file folder location and open the PDF).
    I tried repairing the Acrobat installation and that didn't help.  And actually when trying through the Control Panel, a 2nd PDF printer was created which I cannot figure out how to delete (they both are listed under the same Adobe PDF printer).
    So, the main issue is fixing so I the PDF automatically opens upon being created.....but if someone can help with the 2nd PDF printer that would be appreciated.
    Steve

    The check box is in the default properties of the Adobe PDF printer, under the settings tab. Get there with Start>Printers>select Adobe PDF and right click to check printing preferences. This is a selection, not a reason to reinstall. How it got unchecked is a different question.
    If there are Adobe PDF printers present, just delete one of them or rename the second one to something else (like Adobe PDF backup).

  • Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0

    Blank error message with ? appears and PDF does not open in Browser (IE11) when clicking link to open pdf. PC - IE11 Acrobat 9.0
    Cannot access in browser PDF files unless blank box is closed and then website address is clicked on again in browser address bar and page reloaded.
    Uninstalled Acrobat 9, reinstalled, still same problem.
    Help please!

    Yes I can it only happens in the browser..
    I reinstalled Windows on my machine and started over a couple of weeks ago.
    When my desktop started up I didn’t have Acrobat installed and clicked on a pdf file and the open with xxx dialogue box came open.
    I chose a different program as Acrobat wasn’t installed yet so it associated pdf files with another program.
    Later Installed Acrobat and couldn’t associate the pdf file with acrobat so I went into Folder Options and manually associated PDF files with Acrobat.
    Ever since then I get the error when something is downloaded and opened in the browser.
    Works fine everywhere else and when I cancel the blank error, highlight the web address and press enter to reload it works 90% of the time.
    Not sure what to do..

  • What action dom i take for this error message "C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\physics.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences"?

    I get this message when I try to download a pdf file from a website.
    "C:\DOCUME~1\user\LOCALS~1\Temp\physics.pdf could not be opened, because the associated helper application does not exist. Change the association in your preferences."
    This is a new error. There used to be no problem.

    Do you have any setting for MP3 in Tools > Options > Applications ?
    You usually need the QuickTime plugin to play MP3 files on Windows because that is the only plugin that supports that file extension if there is no MIME type specified to play the file with another plugin like Windows Media Player or RealPlayer.

  • In SharePoint 2010 Document Library "Open with Explorer" Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer

    Hi.
    I am getting below error "Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer" while click "Open with Explorer" option in document library.
    My system is client machine which is 32 Bit system and
    Web Client service is also running and Window 7 PC.
    Other SharePoint sites "Open with Explorer" option in document library is working fine but specific site is giving error.
    Even it was working fine but not is giving this error.
    Please help me on it. Its making frustrations.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you got “Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer” error.
    Did you enable the both authentication (Windows and FBA) on default zone.
    As far as I remember when FBA is enabled on the same zone when Windows is used, it breaks whole client integration.
    So it will be better if you will recheck your architecture and will use different zones for Windows and FBA.
    There is also another thing to try: use claims based authentication with authentication provider which will work both with Windows and FBA.
    What’s more, you can also check with below steps.
    Use compatibility mode to check whether it works.
    Open IE->Tools->Compatibility View Settings
    Add the site into Trusted sites to check whether it works..
    Open the IE->Internet Options->Security->Sites->add the site into the Websites, then check whether it works.
    In addition, you can also try to enable Basic authentication on the client computer, by setting the BasicAuthLevel registry entry of the following key:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Parameters

  • Trying to open a sharepoint library in Windows Explorer via IE 8 results in the error "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer"

    I am attempting to connect to a Microsoft Sharepoint library, via the "Actions -> Open in Windows Explorer" option from the Sharepoint page.  When I do so, I get the error message "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer".  In short, I am trying to get the "drag and drop" functionality of a Sharepoint library.
    I am running Windows 7 64-bit and IE8.  The target Sharepoint environment is a MOSS 2007 EE.  My Windows "WebClient" service is running, and I have no problem connecting to this exact library via a Windows XP computer running IE8.

    Verify that the Webclient is started automatically from the Services.msc
    Verify that your Portal is in the Intranet local security zone (You can reach it from Your Internet Explorer Browser Security Tag) if not add it to the list
    restart the WebClient service if it's work good
    If not you have to create a network share to your portal URL directly not your documents library.
    Open Windows Explorer or My Computer from the Windows Start Menu.
    From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive…. A new Map Network Drive window opens.
    In the Map Network Drive window, choose an available drive letter from the dropdown list located next to the "Drive:" option. Any drives already mapped will have a shared folder name displayed inside the dropdown list, next to the drive letter.
    Type the name of the folder to map wich is in this case your SharePoint Portal URL (Don't include the documents libraries)
    Click the "Reconnect at login" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently. Otherwise, this drive will un-map when the user logs out of this computer.
    If the remote computer that contains the shared folder requires a different username and password to log in, click the "different user name" hyperlink to enter this information.
    Click Finish.
    I am looking for a suite method :)

  • Explorer View - Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer MOSS 2007 '

    We recently had a major deployement, after which Explorer View started giving error message.
    Before deployement, all was working fine.
    Error: Your client does not support opening this list with Windows Explorer
    Webclient service is already enabled.
    The site has been added to trusted site lists.
    All Active-x controls have been enabled.
    Browser: Internet Explorer 8 - 32 bit.
    Microsoft Office 32 bit is also installed.
    Thanx in advance.

    You could try updating the following registry key on a client PC as a test: HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\WebClient\Paramenters\AuthForwardServerList to include the URL of your sharpoint site. Add the root site and it might enable this functionality.

    Doug's got it right. It sounds like you are trying to open a later version file in an earlier version. This will always be handled as opening the PDF portion of the file. Try Googling AI_openMultiPagePDF for a script to open these or Resave from the newer version to the older.

  • IE11/Win 8.1 error 'Your client does not support opening this list in windows explorer'

    I hoping someone might be able to help with this frustrating issue.
    I work on a project where we are using various versions of on-line SharePoint (2007/O365).  In order to quickly drag and drop folders we need to often open the document libraries by using the 'open in windows explorer view'.
    Using the same device, on occassion this works.  But often it gives a rather unhelpful message 'Your client does not support opening this list in Windows Explorer'. 
    I've searched for this issue over the net and confirm that the sites are added to the 'trusted' sites area and that the 'remember you credientials' is checked on logging in.However, the searches do not seem to apply to IE11/Win8.1 or on-line version of sharepoint
    (the suggested hot fix is not suitable)
    Only this morning, using the same device I was able, for a short while to open in explorer view, and then for no apparent reason, it began to display the error message.  I had changed nothing regarding settings or even closed the browser.
    Do you have any support/ideas/fixes on how to resolve this.
    Many thanks

    Hi Val,
    sometimes an answer can be found on the internet by typing the error message from your computer into your favourite search engine.

    follow the directions given above.... you need to add the domains to your Intranet sites list, not the Trusted sites list.
    Perhaps you already have it mapped to your intranet zone....in which case make sure that you have unchecked "Enable Enhance Protected Mode" on the Intranet  zone dialog in Internet Options.
    If this is happening 'randomly' on client machines, then users are probably changing their internet security settings in Internet Options. Ensure they are accepting the default.... Internet Options>Security tab, click "Reset all zones to default".
    Consult with your system administrators to find out if they are applying a custom security template for the Intranet zone... It may be removing the sharepoint domains from the client Intranet zone's domains lists.
    HTH.

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.
