Still cant open files

when i open an email and try to open the PDF file attached it comes up in a crazy language like I don't have the convert program.  DO I have to manual open every single document?

What is your operating system?  In what program is it trying to open your PDF attachement, e.g. in Microsoft Word instead of Adobe Reader?

    You installed MacOS 10.10, didn't you?
    Reinstall Photoshop CS5 to replace the files damaged by the MacOS 10.10 installer.

  • Still cant open embedded files with Adobe Reader 10.0.1

    Hi!
    In the first version of Adobe Reader X you had to disable the Protection Mode in order to open PDF-files on a network drive or that are embedded in a i.e Word document.
    I have now upgraded my version to 10.0.1.
    The first issue seems to be solved (open files on a network drive). But I still cant open PDF files embedded in another file??
    I get the error message: The Program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is either not installed on your computer or it is not responding. To edit this object, install AcroExch or ensure that any dialog boxes in AcroExch are closed.
    And if I try to embedd a PDF-file myself into a document I get the same result.
    As soon as I turn of the Protection Mode it works...
    Is there a way to keep the PM on and still be able to open documents???
    Regards Daniel

    I'm not sure why Adobe hasn't looked into this.  One description elsewhere in the forum seems to suggest that if the computer has had older versions of the reader installed, it will work -- somehow the embedded file needs an older registry key.  I have yet to try installing older versions of reader onto my machine.  This machine has only had reader 10 installed on it.
    I tried the recommendation that is given in another thread.  Turn off running reader in protected mode.  The first time I did it, it didn't work.  The second time I unchecked the "use in protected mode" box, I closed and then reopened reader.  Now I can open embedded pdfs in word.

  • When I try to open the Iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update but when I click on the software update tab, it says that all updates are up to date. I still cant open the Iphoto, what should I do?

    When I try to open the iphoto it keeps on asking for the software update, but when I click on the software update it says that all the software in the computer are up to date. I still cant open the iphoto, what should I do?

    How old is your Mac? If it's very recent you need to update via the App Store
    If you purchased at the App Store you need to update via the App Store
    Otherwise you update via Softare Update
    If you have moved iPhoto from the default location (i.e. into a Folder) then the updater won't find it. Move it back.
    If you have renamed iPhoto, the updater won't find it. Change it back.

  • IPod Shuffle Help - Cant open files on ipod (blank screen)

    I'm sure it's already been covered here, but I couldn't find anything that helped.
    I have a iPod shuffle, and iTunes recognises it but wants to re-format it (not my biggest problem), and Windows only partially recognises it.
    In My Computer it is listed as an iPod (E:), but when i open it, which it does, it displays a blank screen. It doesn't recognise any files in it AT ALL. But recognises how much free space i still have on my ipod. I can open my ipod files (Songs) on friends and school computers, just not mine.
    It just seems that i'm missing a file of some sort, which is able to read the files on my ipod shuffle, but i just don't no what it could be.
    I have tried every available solution, reinstalling iTunes/iPod, with no luck. I also just added service pack 2 for my windows xp pro and thought that would have solved my problem.
    Any suggestions?

    cant open up files on ipod (blank screen)

    Have you tried syncing it again? There might be some error during the last sync.. If nothing's wrong, on the left panel, there's your iPod, click on the arrow beside the icon and there's everything..

  • When downloading, why do I get a message saying "Safari cant open file because the file has moved since it was downloaded?"  I just attempted to download the file from a website.  Thanks.

    When downloading from a website, I get a message that says, "Safari cant open th file--- because the file has been moved since you downloaded it.  How do I correct this problem.  It wont let me open attachments from yahoo email either.  Thanks.

    EDIT:
    After posting I see this question has the tag of "windows". I don't know if this applies to the Windows version or not.
    The only time I see this message is if I download something, trash it, AND empty the trash. If I don't empty the trash, it finds it there. It will find it wherever I move it to, unless it is was in the trash and emptied.
    Using Finder, is the downloaded file in your Downloads folder?
    Maybe if you go to Safari/Preferences/General and change the location for downloads to something else then change it back to Downloads it might correct it.

  • Cant open files into PS CC

    I have Adobe Bridge CC as well as Photoshop CC and Windows 8
    Every since I did the switch i cant open my files into CC.
    I,ve gone to preferences and tried to change file type extensions but all i get is an error message that says Windows cannot find C:\program files\adobe\adobe photoshop CS5.1(64bit)photoshop.exe. make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.
    This happens whether i try and double click or when i click on open with.
    I havent had PS5 for a long long time so not sure why this happening.
    Prior to this i had CE6 and everything worked beautifully,
    How can i get Bridge to open my documents in the correct location?

    What JJMack says, with the additional remark that it's not unusual for me to see the scratch file exceed 200 GB.  I also use Macs, but I don't go beyond Lion 10.7.5.
    Here's some boilerplate text I use in this respect:
    The rule of thumb I follow to figure out scratch space says to figure on 50 to 100 times the size of your largest file ever multiplied by the number of files you have open.  I have seen the scratch file exceed 800 GB once, an admittedly rare occurrence, but it often exceeds 200 GB when stitching large panoramas and the like.
    As an example—and stressing that I'm aware that others have even more scratch space than I do—I keep two dedicated, physically separate hard drives as my primary and secondary Photoshop scratch disks and a lot of GB free on my boot drive for the OS.  I also have 16 GB of RAM installed.
    Additionally, if you only have a single HD, i.e. your boot drive, you'd need it to be large enough to accommodate both the swap files of the OS as well as Photoshop's scratch.

  • I cant open files stored in iCloud in iWork

    I am using the latest version of iWork on my iMac and I can't open any files that are stored in iCloud any time I try to open a document stored in iCloud in an iWork app I get a dialog box that says 'The file "xxx.pages" couldn't be opened.' It does not mater which iWork application I am trying to use I get a version of that dialog. I can still access these files using the iCloud apps on the web or the iOS apps on my iPhone or iPad.
    I was able to access these files at the beginning of January 2014 but sometime this month they stopped opening on the iMac and the latest updates to iWork did not help. I have reported this in feed back to Apple.
    Any ideas?

    As a work-around:
    In the "Pages -> Open ..." dialog, drag the document out of the iCloud, and onto your desktop.
    Once I did that, I could open and edit documents that I could not open when stored in the iCloud.  After the edits were complete, I could drag the document back to the iCloud and could open/edit it from my iPhone, but again not from the iMac until it was dragged back to the desktop.
    This only applies some of my documents.  Some simple "test" documents, open fine when they are stored on the iCloud.  My more complex documents, containing mathematical symbols and other advanced formatting, need to be dragged to the desktop.
    Hope that helps.

    What format are they saved it?

  • Illustrator CS6 cant open files on win 8 machine

    Sats something like "file cant be opened/file cannot be found".
    is doing that on hebrew titled folder, when i change the folder name to english it opens, why ?

    @risepureog ,
    Hello and thank you for posting on the HP support forums.  So that I can help you out with our issue could you please check out the following link.
    Advice for asking the "Very Best Question"
    As well when you post back can you include the file type you are trying to open.  For the most part you need software to open files.  .pdf requires adobe PDF reader.  .doc would require a word processing software like microsoft word.
    It all depends on the file you are trying to open will depend on the software needed.
    Thank you again for posting and have a great day.
