Pdf's from mac to playbook, reader won't open?

I saved pdf files from mac to documents folder on playbook , I launch acrobat reader, I see pdf files but when i try to open, an error message appears that says "file path not valid".  Can anyone shed some light on this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

go into the option ( the gear at the top right ), then in security/applications and change the Adobe reader permission to ALLOWED, and it should fix your problem

  • Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

    Hello:
    I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
    I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
    I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
    I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
    I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
    However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
    Many thanks.

  • PDF File downloaded from Mac Can't Read From Windows 7

    Hi,
    I am now doing a research, and every time when I copy the reference paper in PDF format from Mac to a flash drive, it could not be read from Windows at the university lab. Usually some pages of the file was missing. This really cause me a pain. Please help me.   Thanks...
    Max

    Almost all flash drives are formatted as a Windows drive. When you copy almost any file to the flash drive two different files are created. One corresponds to the data fork of the Mac file and the second is a resource fork. When viewed from Windows the resource fork has the same name as  the original file but it preceded by a period. This resource fork file should be ignored. The real file as far as Windows is concerned is the data fork file.
    Now if the file you are moving to Windows can be opened and is missing pages, then that is not the fault of Reader or the Mac OS. But is related to how you are creating or obtaining the file.

  • Reader won't open docs. mac. error message.

    Reader won't open any docs.  Error message "Adobe Reader could not open (file name) because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged . . . ."  Mac system 10.7.5.

    Ok, it's probably how you save the files.
    DON'T use Save from the File menu in Safari
    DON'T use any save icon in a safari toolbar
    Use only
    1. Right/ctrl click on a link to a PDF BEFORE showing it, save from the pop-up menu (no good if the PDF comes from a button, and in some other cases)
    2. Hover to get the ADOBE toolbar and save from that.

  • Transfer pdf file from mac to ipad

    How to transfer pdf file from mac to ipad without using the internet and with the help of the cable?

    You say without using the internet, then the only way left is to use a USB connection to itunes on your computer.
    If you have a pdf reader app on the ipad (you must if you hope to read pdf files on the ipad), then go into the Apps tab in iTunes (for your device)  and find the pdf reader app in the list.  If there, then drag a pdf file from the mac to the panel in iTunes and then sync.  Once on the ipad, you should be able to open the pdf reader app and access the pdf file.

    When I try to open an .ai/pdf file received through my email, it won't open and asks for a password. I have never set up any kind of password for email security, but have tried typing in my standard passwords. Nothing works. I wonder if it has anything to do with the use of my Wacom3 Tablet...I've been having trouble with it and was getting the same message when trying to open the User's Manual in my Applications/WacomTablet file on my hard drive. Any suggestions? I just downloaded the latest version for the Wacom and recently upgraded to Snow Leopard 10.6.7 (which I hate, and my CS3 hates, etc.)

    It sounds like you have a a password-protected PDF. The password was set by the person who encoded it.

  • Adobe reader won't open on iPad after recent update

    After most recent update, adobe reader won't open on my iPad. I have lots of docs that I need to get to. Please help.

    This forum is probably the best you can do. We're now on the weekend, and Adobe engineers don't work 24/7. When they return on Monday and see the reports, they'll work to fix it. The update will need to be submitted to Apple and then approved for an update.
    Note that there are other apps on the App Store which can read PDFs.

  • Adobe reader won't open, even after re-download

    adobe reader won't open because of error - NEED PDF READER NOW!!!!!!!!!

    The reason is Adobe has not updated there software yet to play well with Mavericks. The fault is of course with the Adobe Software. I suggest you go to there web site and see if they have a fix yet for there software, If not all you can do is continue to check back with them or get on there fourms and see what others have to say about this same issue.

  • Reader won't open after install - Macbook Air, Chrome

    Hello, After downloading the reader (seemingly successfully), it won't open. Downloaded via Chrome OSX on a brand new Macbook air. Adobe's help section advised redownloading the program again. When I did so, I received this message after going through all steps (including deleting the original download from the computer). Have tried a few times now, with same result:
    When I click on the installer on my desktop, it repeats the exact process described above. Any ideas?

    Hi laurenr67230747,
    You indicated that Reader won't open, so it sounds like you did get it installed (as indicated by the message in the installer as well). What happens when you try to launch Reader? Do you receive an error, or does nothing happen when you try to open it?
    Have you tried removing Reader before running the installer again?
    Best,
    Sara

  • Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'.

    Hi I have downloaded compressor4 from Apps store but it won't open - says compressor not properly installed. The reason for my purchase was that compressor 3 stopped working. I tried to reinstall from the FCP disk but it was 'greyed out'. I followed suggestions from the apple site to clear various library files - mainly relating to Qmaster but this didn't make any difference, an iwonder igf perhaps this is the reason for the compressor 4 programme not working. Thanks
    Tom

    You need to export a self-contained video from FCP 6. Import the self-contain video into Compressor 4.

  • Adobe Reader won't open

    just posted a long question (1st time on this forum) & been sent here after creating a username - do I really need to re-type everything all over again or can someone there see it?
    just in case.....
    Adobe Reader won't open - I eventually get a message saying there is no default mail client & telling me to run Outlook & set it as the default mail client (I'm not going to do that).  I then get a message saying that Adobe is not responding.  Uninstalled & re-installed & problem persists.

    Since you mention Outlook, I assume that you are on Windows.  Here are some things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
