PDF Preview Handler Issue

Hi
I have a Windows 7 (64-bit) / Outlook 2007 / Adobe Reader XI setup where I can view PDF files via web browsing (IE) but not through Outlook attachments or Windows Explorer.
I've tried...
What appears to be the common registry fix / validation and this is OK
Uninstalled & re-installed
Installed iFilter 9 for 64-bit
Cleared the Outlook temp folders
...and still can't get it to work.
Any suggestions please ?????
Cheers

I have the same problem...awaiting suggestions and answers.
English
I use pdf preview of windows explorer, but suddenly he says Archive cannot be visualized, sometimes, i reboot and run again, but suddenly, after 30 minutes, or less, show the same message.
I tried unninstall, reinstall, repair, i change values on regedit, but don't work. what should I do?
In some computers doesnt work never.
(Sorry the poor english)

Eu utilizo o prévisualidor de pdf no windows explorer, mas repentinamente ele para de funcionar e diz "Este arquivo não pode ser visualizado" , às vezes, eu reinicio e volta a funcionar, mas depois de um tempo, 30 minutos, ou menos, ele volta a mostrar a mesma mensagem.
Eu tentei desinstalar, reinstalar, reparar, mudar valores no registro do windows mas não funcionou. O que eu faço agora?
Em alguns computadores não funciona nunca

  • Adobe PDF Preview Handler Issue in WIndows 8 64 Bit Machine - After installing Adobe Pro 11.0.10

    Hi Guys ,
    We are facing a serious issue with Windows 8 and Adobe PDF Preview Handler . We are using the PDFPrevHndlr.dll from Adobe to show PDF Previews in our application. It is working fine in Windows 7 and Vista and for some reason it is not working in Windows 8.1 64 bit machines after upgrading to Adobe Pro 10.0.10 .  Please help us figure out what is the root cause of this issue .
    During a close analysis we have found that the PrevHost.exe( Windows component ) is failing soon after it is being invoked . Any help in this is much appreciated.
    Regards

  • Win 7 32 bit Adobe PDF preview handler issues (NOT 64 bit issue)

    No previews available in Outlook or Explorer (for documents in folders). Investigation shows the Vista preview handler installed.  repeated reinstall of Reader changes nothing.
    Attempts to use the registry hack provided on several sites for W7 64 do not work (because this is 32 bit)  Download site correctly identifies the OS as Win 7.. What to do? Thank you. 

    I have fifteen minutes to mark this as a question, despite the fact that no question link or icon exists. Adobe?

  • PDF Preview Handler Not Working in Outlook 2010

    I have Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit and Outlook 2010.
    Everything was working fine, until a few months ago when the PDF Preview Handler stopped working. I got the typical message that others were having with the issue with Adobe Reader 9. I have Adobe Acrobat X Pro and have also used Adobe Reader X. I have tried the little registry fix app that is supposed to fix this issue, but it states that my registry is already correct. Has anyone found a resolution for this issue with Acrobat X and Outlook 2010? As a workaround I am using the Foxit PDF Preview Handler, but I have to reinstall it everytime Adobe Reader or Acrobat is udpated as for some reason Outlook then reverts back to the PDF Preview Handler, which is not working.
    Thanks,
    Merg

    Nope, using 32-bit. And I recently uninstalled Acrobat Pro completely and reinstalled it due to an issue with it not updating due to having the "Error Applying Transforms" issue. After I reinstalled, I updated it completely. I suppose I can try uninstalling and reinstalling again, but that seems like overkill.

  • Can't open PDF's on my Mac coming in on MS Outlook 2010. Reinstalled Adobe software 4 x and still get "Adobe PDF Preview Handler" error message.

    No. Reader will not damage files. It is only meant to read pdf files. PDF files are frequently damaged when sent as email due to encoding issues.

  • Again after last patch: Windows 64 - PDF preview handler not working

    Adobe's PDF preview handler doesn't work unter Windows XP/Vista/7 64 bit. Because of that PDF preview e.g. in Windows explorer or MS Outlook isn't displaying PDF preview.
    This issue has been discussed in this forum some months ago, and this page gives a solution that has helped:
    http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/index.html#fixer
    Instead of fixing this well-known issue with the last patch Adobe decided again not to fix. And after installing the patch you have to repair PDF preview handler again...

    Also causes a popup box to say an internal error has occurred.
    Loads fine when you double click the attachement.

    - outlook>options>trustcenter>trustcenter settings>attachment handling .. the box disable preview is clear .. furthermore outlook>options>trustcenter>trustcenter settings>attachment handling>attachment and documentpreview .. all
    boxes including pdf preview handler are filled.
    - adobe reader XI>edit>presettings?>e-mail-account ... outlook is standart.
    - Registryentry: "Change the AppID value to {534A1E02-D58F-44f0-B58B-36CBED287C7C}"
    - also i repaired the adobe installation and i reinstalled it a few times.
    - even checked the access-rights on the temp. directorys outlook uses for attachments and the users have full access.
    i have no more clue what it can be..
    so may you have the solution for me or at least some tips.

  • Adobe PDF preview handler error after install Reader XI

  • PDF Preview Handler will not open 1 file

    Hi,
    I have Office 2013 and Acrobat XI, the PDF Handler works fine on all my files except one.
    Through our online ordering, I get a confirmation email with E-Order.pdf with every confirmation, worked for a while and now gives me the
    "This file cannot be previewed because of an error with the following previewer
    PDF Preview Handler
    To open this file in its own program, double-click it."
    If I go to any other PDF attachment it works fine.
    Thanks
    Gregg

    Hi Anubha,
    Yes I do have the latest version of Acrobat 11, 11.0.10.
    I have tried turning the PDF Handler off and back on, that didn’t fix it.
    I also installed Reader 11 and that did not fix it.
    If there is something else I can try please let me know.
    Thanks

  • Error in PDF preview Handler in Windows Explorer x32

    I'm running Windows 7, 32 bit. and I get this error when trying to view a pdf in the preview pane "Error in PDF Preview Handler". I have Adobe Reader X installed, and have re-installed it with no  help.
    I've read many problems about this, but everyone else is running 64 bit. I'm running 32.
    Any help please. Thank you

    Yes - sorry !
    I solved my problem with the exchange of the UNC path against drive letters for the folders in
    Administration - System initialisation - General settings - Tab Path
    Before:
    sbo-data\ruk\attachemnts
    After: E:\ruk\attachements (E: is a local drive of the server and we run B1 via Windows Terminal Client on the same machine)
    Before I did this, I checked the user rights on the paths, checked the DNS, hosts file, etc.

  • Vista PDF Preview handler installed on Win 7 32 bit does not work.

    There is no discoverable information regarding failure to preview Adobe PDF files on Win 7 32 bit. The advice for 64 bit does not work. Adobe continues to install the Vista preview handler on my Windows 7 computer, which I suspect is the issue. Is there any way to find and install the Windows 7 32 bit handler or is there a registry hack that permits 11 to access the vista version or what? This is a repeat post, as I cannot locate the first and assume that there have been no responses, as I  have received no alerts.
    If you have an answer I will name my first born for you. He is 41 and object loudly, but no price to great.....

  • PDF Preview Handler does not work

    Hello,
    We installed Outlook 2010 on a new Windows 7 32bit machine with Acrobat Reader X.
    The preview handler for PDF files does not work in Outlook 2010.  Reader works fine by itself.
    If I uninstall Reader X and install verison 9.3 then the Preview Handler works fine.  Any suggestioers?  I have run the repoair on Office and reinstalled Reader X again but to no avail.
    - Neil

    No i didnt check for office updates.. however i did locate a fix.  I am not usually keen to try random fixes so i tested it solo first to confirm it was legitimate.  worked fine.      http://www.pretentiousname.com/adobe_pdf_x64_fix/
    Thank you for attempting to help me though.
