Problem opening a web based PDF

Group,  I would appreciate anyone’s help with this.  I run windows XP and just downloaded Adobe 9.1 I have no issues when trying to open a pdf file.  However when I click on a web based document in a web browser I am unable to open, and receive the following error message:
The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a Web Browser. Adobe Actrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required.  Please exit and try again.
I have 2 laptops which I did not download 9.1 and I am not having this issue, only on the machine with 9.1.
Any ideas?

Run repair installation from the help menu.

  • I am experiencing difficulties opening some web-based PDF files on my iPad. I was having the same difficulty opening the same PDFs on my iMac (after I upgrade to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in settings.

    I am experiencing difficulty opening some web-based PDF documents on my iPad. I had exactly the same difficulty on my iMac (after I upgraded to Yosemite) but was able to overcome it by adjusting the Adobe Reader plug-in security settings in Safari (in OSX).
    Unfortunately there does not seem to be a way to similarity adjust the security settings in Safari in iOS 8.
    The message I get when I attempt to open the PDF (on my iPad) is as follows:
                "To view the full contents of this document you need a later version of PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from ..."
    Needless to say this is unhelpful for two reasons:
    - I have the very latest version of Adobe Reader; and
    - in iOS Adobe Reader is not a plug-in and plays absolutely no role in opening web-based PDF documents.      
    If anyone has experienced this difficulty and has been able to overcome it I would be most appreciative to hear of you solution.
    Cheers

    Did you check what I would consider the first place to look:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions
    If the site is still down (at least 12 hours) when you read this try [http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:http%3A//kb.mozillazine.org/Problematic_extensions Google's cache]
    Link or url would make it easier to see which page you tried rather than "your online solution for ...".

  • In Safari, opening a web-based pdf results in a black page?

    Whn I am using Safari which is  the default browser on my IMAC, opening a web-based pdf results in a black page? This does not happen when using firefox. Also does not happen when opening an emailed pdf.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • How do I open a web based PDF document on my iPad?

    I am unable to open web based PDF documents as I fear Apple does not trust PDF documents on the Web.

    Hi Rick,
    Did you try attaching screenshots to your reply to the email from this forum?  Because the Adobe forums do not accept any type of attachments for security reasons, your photo attachments did not get through.  Sorry about that.
    But I think I know what you saw when you tried to open one of the PDF Application Forms on the Alberta (Canadian) government web site.
    Did you see a message like this in Safari on your iPad?
    Please wait... If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by visiting  http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    If so, the PDF form is a special type of form called a "dynamic XFA form".  The message is displayed when a dynamic content is not supported by a PDF viewer.
    As far as I know, there are no iOS apps that support dynamic XFA forms. The mobile version of Adobe Reader does not support dynamic XFA forms.  Neither does Safari or iBooks on iOS.  It's the limitation of mobile PDF viewer apps.
    To recap
    Dynamic or static XFA forms - Use the desktop version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or Windows computer.
    Most PDF documents and non-XFA forms - Use the mobile or desktop version of Adobe Reader.
    Please note that Apple iOS apps (such as Mail, Safari, and iBooks) do not display filled form data or annotations (sticky notes, highlight, etc.) at all.  If a PDF document/form is first opened in Mail, Safari, or iBooks, you need to use the iOS "Open In" feature to open it in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPad on iOS 7 or 8 version)
    (This is the same FAQ document that I mentioned in my reply #2 above.)
    In this particular case, using the "Open In" feature to transfer the PDF Application Form from Safari to Adobe Reader for iOS does not help.  Because Adobe Reader for iOS cannot display the dynamically generated content of the XFA form from the Alberta government web site.
    But you should be able to open other "regular" PDF documents (just like the one that I provided as a sample link) in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Hope this helps.  Please let us know if you have additional questions.

  • Blank Adobe Pop-Up after trying to open a web-based .pdf?

    When I try to open an adobe file through IE8, a blank pop-up from Adobe shows up.  I'm not sure what it means, and the .pdf doesn't open after that pop-up.  What is this? 
    I've attached a screen shot of what I am seeing.  The blank box in the background should be the pdf & the example of the Adobe pop-up is in the foreground. 
    Thanks!

    Hi
    It happens with almost all .pdfs that are web-based.  For instance, it will not open this file: http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=4AA3-7370ENW (hp.com fact sheet).
    Any files that I have saved to my PC do not have this issue. 
    Regards,

  • X Pro and Flash Player Error with web-based PDF readbook

    Everytime I try to view a web-based PDF book (with multiple PDF files) I get an error/alert that reads:
    "To View the Flash technology content in this PDF file, please install this version of Flash Player that supports Adobe Reader and Acrobat."
    I am currently using:
    IE Explorer 9.0.8112.16421
    Adobe Reader X 10.1.7
    Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1.4
    Shockwave 12.0.2 Development
    I have all of the appropriate settings enabled/disabled in the browser. Before I installed Adobe Acrobat Pro the files opened perfectly in IE9. I believe, but am unsure, that I was just using Reader X at that point.
    Of note...the PDF books in question still open perfectly if I DOWNLOAD the file and open it from the desktop. The issue is when I try to view it in the browser(a setting enabled in the preferences). This is an issue because I don't have the time or space to download these files and need to view them in the browser for efficiency.

    You would usually get this message if you don't have the Flash Player plugin installed.  However I do not quite understand why you get that message when viewing a PDF in the browser, but not when viewing it from your local disk.

  • When printing web based .pdf or regular .pdf I get message "This document failed to print"

    When printing web based .pdf or regular .pdf I get message "This document failed to print".  I've ran the HP Diagonistic tool and no errors are found.  I've gotten the same message on many different .pdf's so I don't believe it is a margin issue.

    Are the static IP addresses inside the DHCP range?  If so, move them to ones outside the range.
    Also, have you set the IP address in the printers' embedded web pages (via IP address in a browser) to match the ones set in the router?

  • Web based PDF Doc question - not sure how to describe

    My manager has asked that I research a way to change a web based pdf file to allow fellow co-workers to either download it has a whole, or just sections of it.  I've tried looked into bookmarks and portfolio, but it just doesn't seem to do what he requires.

    You should have a Binder for your complete PDF and separate section files individually constructed for each chapter or section
    that should be available as a portion of the whole.  So, in essence you would create individual PDF's first then collect
    them into a single PDF Binder (not a Portfolio)

  • Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible HTML editor

    I am frequently getting following error message on aspx pages on my SharePoint 2007 environment
    Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Windows SharePoint Services-compatible HTML editor such as Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer.
    If the problem persists, contact your Web server administrator.

    while working with SharePoint Designer 2007.Any clues how to resolve this issue ? 
    Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

  • PLEASE ADVISE: I cannot open web based PDF

    Further to my query 2 days ago, when I could not open pdf document on a web based course, now I cannot open any pdf on any web site!

    I started a web-based course, reputable site.
    The web stated Safari is the best for the media used in the course.
    First attempt: could not complete, needs Adobe flashplayer (though I set the Safari preference security to "allow all other plugins").
    OK, I installed this, and hurray! excellent.
    Then there are links of the "manual" to read through the course. Opens blank tab, with message states: needs Adobe Reader. I do not have this.
    OK, go to main Adobe web site, download and install. This wants to be the "default" instead of Preview.
    Nope, do not want the change of my default. But then, have to make the change.
    Nope, Adobe Reader not opening the link.
    Now, I un-installed (deleted) the Adobe Reader, kept the Adobe Flashplayer. Still can not read any material in the links (blank tab), normally or usually, any pdf will open when the security preference is to "allow all other plugins"!!
    Yes, I can do the course, but I cannot read materials in any links, which are pdf. Probably will fail the test at the end. If so, who will compensate my course fee?
    Totally disappointing experience.
    I looked to find where the Adobe Flashplayer is installed, but there is not any, though there is Adobe Flashplayer Uninstaller!!
    Any comments or advice?
    In summary, now I cannot open any pdf web linked site.

    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    1. Clear Firefox's Cache
    orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Offline Storage : "Clear Now"
    2. If needed, delete the site's cookies here
    While viewing a page on the site, right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

  • Problem Starting the Web-Based Administrative Console

    I have Installed Application Server 7 Platform Edition. Everything runs smooth. The Application Server and the Administrative Server got started perfectly. I checked both of these Servers and they are working perfectly.
    The problem is that when trying to connect to the Web-Based Administrative Console.
    I get the prompt to enter the Admin username and the password, once I have entered, it accepts but through the following message.
    �Your Sun One Application Server License does not allow Remote Administration.
    Please go to http://www.sun.com/upgradeas7 to upgrade your license.�
    How can this happen because I am using the same machine where Application/Administrative Servers are running to get connected to Web-Based Administrative Console.

    Hi,
      May be you can put an external breakpoint in the method "_get_attribute_rtti"(of class CL_WDR_CONTEXT_NODE_INFO).
    From that you can find out which attribute is causing the dump , and try to solve the issue . May be some data dictionary object is not transported to production.(Assuming that you have permission to put breakpoints in production system..:))

  • Problem opening live web page (url) from within keynote

    hi.
    i encountered this problem during a recent presentation. i have a standard two-monitor set-up, on my laptop viewing notes etc and presenting on the attached monitor. the transitions between my slides are all set onClick.
    so, when i encounter a hyperlink in my presentation (of the web page type), when i click on it, i am not taken to the web page, but rather to the next slide.
    how do i avoid this? how do i make keynote follow the hyperlink -- i.e. open the webpage during the presentation?
    many thanks in advance for your tips.

    use '_blank' as parameter, not '_self'.

  • Problem opening a web template!

    Hi Experts
      When I open a Web Templates, it says that it has a HTML Fragments & cannot be edited in WAD as it is not designed in such a way to edit only in HTML editor???
    Any ideas are highly appreaciated.
    Thanks
    BI Learner

    hello,
    wanted to ask you one more thing..
    Are you trying to open some CRM templates?because some of them do not open in WAD.
    You can only view the template "HTML" (code) view with WAD for the problem you described. This can be done using RS_TEMPLATE_MAINTAIN or WAD.
    You cannot view the template using WAD to get the "Layout" graphical view.
    The only way to get around this is to strip out the HTML "fragments" from the HTML code, or to partition the templates into sub-templates.
