Save As....PDF does not open in Acrobat Reader

I'm using a mac with all the lastest updates.
I have version 11.0.03 of Adobe Reader
When I use Safari to view a .PDF file, I can view it with no problems.
The problem comes after I SAVE that file.  So when I'm viewing a site such as http://www.lightroomqueen.com/downloads/shortcuts/lightroom_shortcuts_40_mac.pdf and then in Safari I go... FILE>SAVE AS...and select that default file name with it's .pdf extension it does save to that destination.  But...when I try to open that .pdf file via Adobe Reader..OPEN...(filename.pdf) I receive this messege:
"There was an error opening this document. The root object is missing or invalid."
How do I correct this issue please?

Don't use File Save in Safari.  As you can see it does not give you the expected results.  Instead, use either the disc icon either in the menu bar at the top or the disc icon at the bottom of the PDF in the HUD (Heads Up Display).

  • PDF does not open in Adobe Reader 7

    I am working on a  project where we create PDF documents with FOP. The generated PDFs open in  Version 6, 8 and 9 but NOT 7! We get an error
    "There was a problem  reading this document(114)" The document is partially rendered and disappears  when you scroll down etc.  I need to know is there a setting specific to Acrobat  7 that is causing this or is there something in the XSL mark-up that Acrobat 7  does not like. I am really under pressure for a fix on this one so any help or  assistance is greatly appreciated.
    I have also posted this to the acrobat forum apologies But Desperate!

    Apache Fop http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/ takes an xml file and combines with an xsl stylesheet to create a PDF. (Although we are using a .net verion FONET). This is a problem with Adobe Reader 7.0. I cannot upload a file since the material is highly confidential (a criminal record!) I can confirm that this has been tested on several machines. The PDF is valid and can be opened in Adobe Reader versions 6, 8, 9 and Foxit but not Reader 7. I can only assume that there is something in the generated PDF that Reader 7 does not like and perhaps this is a bug since the PDF can be opened in earlier and later verions but not 7!

  • 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..

  • Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?

    Using 10.6.8, internet pdf documents not opening using Adobe Reader; how is this corrected?  I've tried changing "sharing and permissions" to "read and write" as suggested on other help sites, but this did not correct the problem.

    I had the same problem---contacted Adobe and their service rep helped me by
    A.   Deleting  Adobe Reader from my iMac's Applications in Finder
    B.   Downloading Google Chrome browser and then
    C.   Downloading the latest Adobe Reader for Mac 10.6.8 in Google Chrome--it works
    Adobe acknowledges problem with the latest Snow Leopard update 10.6.8 and with this work around, I can open PDF's using the Google Chrome Browser.
    Is this the ideal solution---NO.  Safari is my main browser. I now have to use a separate browser for PDF's.
    Am I happy to be able to open PDF's---YES
    You can't believe the time I spent to solve this problem before calling Adobe for help. My Apple Care policy expired a month ago . As I use Photoshop Elements, I was not charged by Adobe for their help on the telephone.

  • 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).

  • Captivate 5.5 PDF not opening in Acrobat Reader 9.4.5 - why?

    Why won't a PDF created in Adobe Captivate 5.5 open in Acrobat Reader 9.4.5? I keep getting an error at work. I am not able to upgrade my adobe reader at work and am wondering if I NEED Acrobat Reader 10 in order to view these PDFs.

    Update:
    My stupidity.  Changed a path and still had the old folder on development computers so all appeared fine.  That was the issue.

  • PDF does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any apps from Safari.

    Hi,
    After update to iOS 5, I noticed that PDFs in Safari does not "Open in iBooks" or "Open with" any other apps. The option is available, however, nothing happens when I click on it. Has anyone else experienced such an issue?
    Thanks,
    Bibin

    I have exactly the same issue.
    Here is something even more bizarre.
    If I go in Safari to
    arxiv.org/abs/1012.4362
    and click on the link to the pdf it displays it in Safari fine, but wont open it in GoodReader (it will upload it to dropbox but then isnt viewable in there).
    However, if I go to the same link in Opera, click on the pdf then, as usual, it opens the pdf in Safari. But now the pdf *can* be uploaded to GoodReader from Safari!

  • 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 open

    I thought it was my new virus program, but i completely uninstalled it. So I have no firewall up, and no virus program, can't open any PDF. So I removed all Adobe software, rebooted, and reinstalled all updated Adobe programs. Still can not open any PDF. All it does is bring up the reader screen all grayed out, laughs at me then closes. No fault code given. Desperately need tech help. I have windows 7 OS.

    You can try using this tool to first remove all traces of Reader from your computer:

    Then, you can download the full offline Reader installer from
