Some PDF files are not displayed in Bridge

Hello,
here is the problem: I use Adobe Bridge CS2 to browse my large collection of PDF files, and unfortunately some files are not displayed in the Filmstrip View mode; instead a generic icon is shown (bridge1.png). Most PDF files, however, are displayed correctly (bridge2.png). Is this the problem of Bridge or of certain PDF files, and how should I fix them to make them being displayed by Bridge?
Thanks.

In fact, all files have similar type of content (research papers). However, I found out that all files which are not displayed are "protected" by the publisher such that they only can be viewed and printed, but not modified or disassembled. Apparently, this causes the problem with Bridge not displaying them. It's a pity that Bridge cannot handle them...
Thanks for the help, though.

  • PDF files are not displayed

    Firefox does not display PDF files. I did not have this problem before and tried just about everything that has been mentioned under help and in the forum - including a complete and clean reinstallation. So far NOTHING seem to have any effect. For a while it says in the lower left corner "transfering data" (or something like that), but then is says "Done" and all I get is a blank screen.

    Hi,
    The problem I have with displaying PDF files is still the same: as soon as they are locked against editing (NOT password protected against opening) files cannot be viewed on Creative Cloud.
    I just downloaded one of the files to my computer and e-mailed it to myself: GMail can view it without any problem. It's a bit strange that Google can do something Creative Cloud can't.
    And its REALLY annoying that some PDF files just can't be viewed in Creative Cloud
    Thanks for your help!

  • PDF files are not displayed. Why?

    Most of the PDF files I uploaded are not displayed on Creative Cloud. Some I can view page by page, but most are only displayed as generic PDF icon.They are not very complex or difficult files - What is the problem? My InDesign files are displayed nicely. Even GMail displays the PDF files without a problem.
    Any suggestions?

  • Some PDF files will not display Why?

    When I try and display some PDF files they only open up a blank screen. Any ideas.

    I am having the same problem with Safari, I will save Adobe Reader to desktop quite it and try to open it again and get a blank and it telling me it doesn't recognize it. Then I copy it from Safari, and paste it into Firefox and it will open in Safari and anywhere it want to open it. I just use this instead of trying to open it again in Safari.

  • Some PDF covers are not displayed in iTunes

    Hi,
    I´m importing epub and pdf files into iTunes. Epub in general workes fine. Some of the imported PDF do not show a cover. I have done so many thinks but I have no idea why those file are having a problem:
    - changd the picture
    - changed the pdf added a new page with a new cover picture
    - combined pdf with another pfd that has cover picture (which is shown if I just import that one)
    - changed page size
    - changed picture size
    Does anyone have any idea what could be the root cause? It is absolutelly platform independend as it happens as under MacOS as well as under Windows7. So the problem definatelly comes from the pdf itself.
    Furthermore is there any why import pdf metadata? It is anoying always having to add all information a second time after importing the pdf.
    regards,
    F.

    did you solve the problem? I have the same issue.

  • PDF files are not opening in IE!!!

    Some PDF files are not displayed while opening in browser IE . The PDF files are generated through servlets (JWS 2.1). While analysing the problem we have found that the one request invokes the doget() method of the servelet more than once. This problem is not appearing in netscape.
    Please give suggestions.

    I am having the same sort of problem. I have a form posting to a servlet that displays a pdf based on the vars posted to it. My doPost() calls doGet(). When I post to the the servlet the doPost() is called and then it calls the doGet() and then SOMETHING else calls the doGet() again. Since the vars that I am using to load the pdf are posted they are out of scope for the second doGet(). I tried two things to fix this:
    I changed my doPost() method to do nothing but check the request variables and hold on to them. Then I changed my doGet() to use the values that I held instead of the request vars. This only worked sometimes.
    Then when I rolled all of my code back and changed my form from POST to GET everything worked fine. It seems that there is something that causes the browser to always call the GET when you are using application/pdf. If my doPost() calls my doGet() everything is lost on the second doGet()

  • CF8 - pdf files do not display in a browser

    We are setting up the multiple instance capability using jrn4 with cf8,
    with apache 2.x on Redhat linux 5.X.
    For the when browsing to the main cfusion instance I can see pdf files
    but if I go to the document root of an instance, pdf files are not displayed.
    Infact it hoses whichever browser you are using.
    I can see cfm, txt, html files.
    Anyone have an idea what is happening?

    I tried your recommendation of turning off coldfusion and it
    appears the problem of not being able to display
    a pdf file has nothing to do with coldfusion or with apache.
    The problem appears to be how we are mounting the documentroot on a linux server
    from a windows file server using a cifs mount.
    It seems to handle text files properly but not pdf files (it may have problems
    with other types of files), perhaps it is an issue with end of line or end of
    file which is confusing things.
    This is the mount command we are using
    //win_file_server/xyz     /data/xyz          cifs   user,ro,credentials=credentials,uid=48,gid=48,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755
    The credentials file contains
    username=some_name
    password=xxxxxxxx
    uid=apache
    gid=apache
    filemode=0660
    dirmode=0770
    nosuid
    nosetuids
    It works file if the documentroot is on a mounted unix file system, but not windows.
    Does anyone know if mounting a windows file system can work properly?
    (Perhaps we are missing some additional settings).

  • In FireFox 4.0, PDF files will not display

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    * Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    * Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    * Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    * Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    * Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    * If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • Changes made in Lightroom are not displayed in Bridge.

    When I make changes to my jpeg or psd files in Lightroom 4.3, these changes are not displayed in Bridge.
    I'v checked the appropriate box in Lightroom's Catalog Settings "Auotmatically write changes to XMP".
    What am I doing that's incorrect?
    Digitalmac.

    With the box <Auotmatically write changes to XMP> checked, it may take a while until Lr "gets around" to writing the changes to xmp.
    To check directly do this: immediately after you made changes to an image (PSD or other) press Ctrl / Cmd + S (letter S on you  keyboard), wait until the progress bar has finished and then check your image in in Bridge.

  • In Mac OS X Yosemite, Finder / Favorites / All My Files, "Today" files are not displayed.

    After upgrading MacBook Pro to OS X Yosemite, "Today" files are not displayed in Finder / Favorites / All My Files.  It worked prior to the upgrade.

    After further investigation, it is not the displaying of "Today" files that is the issue.  It appears that Finder / Favorites / All My Files is not correctly finding & displaying files when using the View / Arrange By / Date Last Opened criteria.  If I switch the criteria to / Date Modified, it finds & displays the file correctly.  See attached screen shots.  (It is possible that this problem existed before Yosemite, as I don't recall which criteria Finder was using before the upgrade.)
