PROBLEMS opening  PDF in IE 9 or X

How can it be that Adobe releases a new version not able to open a PDF from a link?
ADOBE GET IT FIXED!!!!!!!
It can not be true that you have to change the settings in preferences before it works. How do I explain this to 1000 of  my costumers?

Good day,
Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 was released after development for Adobe Reader X was complete.  While we made every effort to anticipate the way the final release version of IE9 would behave, our PDF viewer plugin is not yet compatible with IE9.  This is being worked on by our engineering department.  In the interim, when trying to open a PDF file from the browser, save it locally to your computer and open it directly in Adobe Reader.
Hello David and thank you for that reply. This is all very well and good when pdf files can be saved to the desktop but I have a few where the last thing I click on in IE9 to get to the pdf is not a shortcut to the pdf itself but a radio button leading to another page (which then somehow pushes the pdf to me). If I right click on that final webpage 'confirm' radio button before the pdf opens in my browser (but cannot be worked with properly because the buttons don't work), I do not get the option to save the pdf as a file. There seems that in some cases saving the pdf to file just isn't an option...
How can I view such files in the interim until Adobe have this problem nailed - and when do you expect to release the patch for Reader X which addresses this? If you can't be specific is it days.... weeks or.... well you get the idea?

  • I am having a problem opening pdf document.  I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working"

    I am having a problem opening pdf document.  I get error message: "Adobe Reader has stopped working" then I get Windows is looking on line for a solution, but then my document closes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader XI, rebooted my computer but this did not help.  I get the same message. What to do?

    Can you open Reader by itself?  If so, check if disabling Protected Mode improves the situation [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].

  • Adobe Acrobat 9.4 Pro / Win7 Enterprise (64bit) - problem opening pdf

    Hello,
    i got problems opening pdf files.
    when i try to open the pdf file i get the message 'access denied'. That happens when i try to open it with a standard user.
    opening that file 'as administrator' works fine.
    I tried the Win7 compatibility check and Win7 tells me that Acrobat isn't compatibel. I tried to run acrobat.exe in different compatibilty modes (XP SP2/SP3, Win NT) -> no cure . Only thing working is to run Acrobat as administrator )

    You can try to enable Admin rights on your computer.
    In start menu use the search field, type in cmd once you see that  in your search result right click on cmd and Select "Run as Administrator".
    Once the Command Prompt open's type in.
    net user administrator /active:yes hit enter after typing it.
    You should the message "The command completed successfully."
    After you try this launch the software.

  • Problems opening PDFs in Firefox.

    I have a problem opening PDFs. Here's the deal. For my website, I have XEA based Adobe forms. Per http://helpx.adobe.com/livecycle/kb/xfa-forms-firefox-chrome.html I set PDFs to Use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox.....and that works great.
    BUT when I have Use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox, I then cannot open other PDF links on any other site. Instead I get the dreaded SAVE AS diaglogue box so I have to download the PDF file and then open it.
    If I try to switch PDFs to Use Adobe Acrobat (rather than Use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox) then I cannot open my XEA based Adobe forms. So I have to keep PDFs to Use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox for my XEA web-based forms, but that prevents me from opening any other PDFs online (since I have to save the other PDFs rather than opening them).
    How do I solve this problem so I can open other PDFs online (without saving) and yet still be able to use my XEA based Adobe Forms by Use Adobe Acrobat in Firefox?
    Thanks,
    Steve

  • Problem opening PDF files for Adobe Reader

    Problem opening PDF files for Adobe Reader.
    I installed the latest adobe reader for my Mac. Everything is set up. Every time i go to open a pdf file, this shows up...
    "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch adobe reader and accept the End User Licence Agreement, then quit and relaunch the browser."
    I installed it through the adobe reader website for free. And even though it says 'by clicking "install now" you are agreeing to accept the user licence agreement terms and conditions' it still says i need to accept the T&C's.
    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it and same thing over and over again.
    Can someone help!?!?!
    Please contact me via email direct ASAP at....

    Did you actually try doing what the message suggests?  Open Adobe Reader and accept the EULA?

  • Problems opening .pdf files created in Windows in MAC

    My clients that are using Macs are having problems opening password protected PDFs that I created in Windows. Any suggestions?

    Are your clients using Adobe Reader on Mac, or the built-in Mac OS Preview?  Preview does NOT support the full PDF standard :(.

  • Problems opening pdf-files from KM of portal

    Hi,
    we store documents in our portal in KM. When I use pdf-files that where not saved with Office2007 tools I get the problem, that I can open the file once. If I open it the second time I get the error message "file doesn't start with "%PDF-". and the file will not be opend. If I delete the temporary files in the internet explorer, the file can be opended, again.
    If I open the file directly in the internet explorer I don't have those problems, so it seems, that the portal uses a different viewer than the internet explorer itself. 
    Has anyone an idea how to solve this problem?
    Regards
    Ulrike

    Ulrike,
    I think this is a known issue.
    Affected versions:
    o KMC SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (formerly named 2004s) SP 14
    o KMC SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (formerly named 2004s) SP 15
    If you have the above KMC and SP Versions then you need to follow the below SAP note:
    Note 1146711 - Problem opening PDF files.
    Have you checked the belowSAP Note?
    Note 954627 - Issues with opening/displaying PDF files from KM

    The iPad and iPhone have NEVER supported Flash and never will. In fact, Adobe is no longer distributing Flash builds to mobile devices.

  • Windows 8.1 - problem opening pdf with reader

    Hi, I am using windows 8.1 (not touch). Every time I try to open a pdf with reader, it brings up a previous document and not the one i'm trying to open. As there are not many menu options with windows 8 I can only close it.

    I am having the same problem. Did you ever get a workable solution or anxwer?

  • Problems opening PDFs from SharePoint 2010 with Acrobat X Pro

    Is anyone else having problems integrating pdf document support into Sharepoint 2010?
    I now have the icon showing for any pdf documents saved in a Document Lirary, However I don't get the options of Checking out - editing an checking in. There is also no revision control. I think that when I open a pdf document, the servers own copy of Adobe Reader opens, and not my local copy of Reader or Acrobat X pro.
    I've done what it says in the Administrators guide for Sharepoint integration and I'm still unable to get this functionality to work. As we use interactivve pdfs for a lot of our internal documentation the pdf integration features are very important.
    Any help from users who have already been through the pain of sharepoint integration would be really appreciated.
    Regards.

    Hi Bill,
    Looking at your initial problem of not being able to open the SharePoint hosted PDF document from the web browser.
    Could you please verify that as per the "Enterprise Administration Guide", the DocIcon.xml file of your server contains the following line:
    <Mapping Key="pdf" Value="AdobePDF.png" OpenControl="AdobeAcrobat.OpenDocuments"/>
    Please verify that the OpenControl attribute is also mentioned correctly. Without this the Acrobat Active X component would not be invoked.
    thanks,
    Shivani

  • Problems opening PDF files

    When I visit web sites using PDF I always have problems opening them. I get the following message each time:
    The Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can not be used to view PDF files in a web browser. Adobe Acrobat/Reader version 8 or 9 is required. Please exit and try again.
    I do have the latest version of Adobe so curious as to why I'm having these problems. If it helps I'm using Windows Vista and have a Sony Vaio laptop.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks for your help. I think I may have solved the problem. I uninstalled Adobe reinstalled but ignored the update for it and it appears to work okay. So, from my expereince it could be the update that could be the problem, though I have seen through the forums different things work for different people.

  • Adobe Reader 10.1.3 Performance Problems (Open PDF from Outlook)

    Hello all,
    Adobe Reader 10.1.3 Multi Language version was rolled out to several hundreds of Win XP SP3 client machines.
    Now users start reporting that Adobe Reader starts very slow. Most users complain that opening a PDF attached to an email in MS Outlook takes very long (10 sek up to several minutes).
    In some forums I found problems with PDFs in Outlook in versions before 10.1.1.
    Does anyone has an idea what causes this slow response?
    Is there anything we can test to come closer to the problem?
    Thanks for help.

    I do not have this problem with Reader 10.1.6 or 11.0.2 on Outlook 2007.
    WhatI would do if I encountered such a problem: observe the process with Process Monitor.  This could give me some clues what is going on, compared to an earlier Reader version that did not cause this problem.

  • Problem opening PDFs within an App-V session of Internet Explorer

    I've seen similar post to this problem but no solution.
    Problem is I am delivering a web based application using App-V.  This works fine except when the User tries to open PDFs.  This fails with the following error - "Adobe PDF Document" "There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader"
    "If it is running, please exit and try again"
    I've tried the following scenarios, all fail.
    Test with Reader already open and with it not open.
    LOCAL_INTERACTION_ALLOWED set to TRUE or FALSE
    Windows XP or Windows 7
    Sequencing with Reader 10 installed which produces a different "Visual C++ Runtime error" on Windows XP (within the sequencing Process I'm unable to open a PDF document)  Sequencer is 4.6.2.24020.
    Reader Protected Mode turned Off or or Enabled (outside the App-V bubble)
    Failure testing internal and external PDFs
    Reader 11 makes no difference, still get the same failues.
    Using ProcMon I can see AcroRd32.exe running but failing with "Access denied" error's writing to the Users's %Appdata%\Adobe folder and %temp% folders (permssions should not be an issue, User has full control).  Last Access denied failure
    is "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe\Acrobat\10.0\UserCache.bin"(still fails is this is deleted or already exists)
    It works fine just opening a PDF in a non-App-V IE session. I don't want to include Reader inside the IE Bubble.
    Has anyone foudn a resolution to this?  Thanks in advance for help.

  • FIx for Problems opening PDF files

    Forget about downloading a new version of Adobe Reader. If you are having problems opening a PDF file all you have to do is right click on the file and Save As (someplace you can go back to such as Desktop)Then go to the desk top (Windows Key + D) and open the file. I hope this helps a lot of people.

    Good evening,
    Thank you for your prompt response.
    BACKGROUND:
    I have been sending files to this customer for a couple of years. He says he's not doing anything different. I am not doing anything different either. He gets the same response on two different computers. He has no problems with files from anyone else. None of my other clients have this problem. I can open the same files if I send them to a different computer. I even tried zipping the file....no luck. I do send the files to him and myself in the same e-mail....so I would think if it was damaged...it would be damaged on my end as well?
    INFO
    Windows XP (both of us). I am printing to pdf from InDesign CS3. ( I did try exporting...same results)
    He has Acrobat Reader 9. something. I have Acrobat Pro 9.
    He is opening his e-mail, then clicking attachment, then clicking "open".
    He also tried "save" and still same results.
    RESULTS
    He gets an error message to the effect that "the file is damaged".
    On the zip file he gets error message "file is corrupted or damaged"
    Any advice will be appreciated. We have only had this problem in the past couple of months.
    Thank you,
    MamaMille
