Trying to open PDF in email with Adobe Reader app

Citimortgage sent me a disclosure statement by email. I'm trying to open it on my iPad using the Adobe Reader app, but this is all I get.
To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html For further support, go to www.adobe.com/support/products/acrreader.html

George is correct. XFA forms (which the mobile Reader does not support) are often built with a generic error (like the one described) page that displays for Readers that do not support these document types.

How to open PDFs by default with Adobe Reader?

Hi everybody!!
I used to have Adobe Acrobat but I don't have it any more.
When I had Acrobat the PDFs in my sistem and the PDFs in the web were opened without problems by Acrobat but now I just have Adobe Reader (not Acrobat) and the PDFs in my sistem and on the web are not opened and can't read them...
Even the PDFs in my sistem don't show the PDF icon as when I had Acrobat installed.
What could I do to be able to open PDFs by default with my Adobe Reader?
Thanks a lot for your help.

Right click on a PDF file and select Open with, then select the Always open with button. Search for Adobe Reader and go from there. This is an OS feature, not a Reader feature. For further questions about Reader, check the Reader forum.

E-mail program won't open PDF attachments automatically with Adobe Reader

When I get e-mail with PDF attachment I get a message saying I must open only from trustworthy source. Then I click it open, but it won't open. So I click save, and it is saved to desktop where I can then open it with Adobe Reader. I prefer that Outlook automatically opens it with Adobe Reader when I click it just once. I have updated Adobe Reader from 9.0 to 9.3.2, and it still won't work,

I have had the exact same problem, i use windows mail because my computer was unable to run outlook for a reason i can't remember and this is dead-set exactly the process i go through constantly. I have unistalled/reinstalled adobe multiple times.

I have installed Gmail and Adobe Reader App on my iphone4s with ios 6.0.1...I was trying to open a PDF attachement from Gmail in Adobe Reader to sign it electronically, however the attachement just does not show the "open in" option
I tried tapping and holding the attachment icon, it just shows "Open / Bookmark/ Copy"...
Also i tried opening the attachement first and then tapping on it, it just shows "open in Safari"

Firefox is unable to open pdf files even with adobe reader

i am unable to open pdf documents with firefox . i have installed latest version of adobe reader for firefox but still i am having problem. older versions of mozilla do not have this problem

Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] If it functions correctly, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

Eric-
FYI, this is a forum for storage and sharing...photoshop.com and revel. If you have acrobat issues you might want to make a note of the other forums:
http://forums.adobe.com shows a list of all of them, and specifically http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat this one for Acrobat
But, since I have had this same issue myself...
On Windows, locate your pdf document. Right click it and select "open with". Select Adobe Acrobat. That should do it. On MAC, I'm not sure but I'm guessing there is a similar setting.
Good luck.

I can't open pdf files even though adobe reader is downloaded.

I can't open pdf files even though adobe reader X1 is downloaded.

May seem like an obvious question but, did you install it after you downloaded it?
If so, how are you trying to open these files and what happens when you try?

2 medical softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install but IExplorer succeded

Hello,
We have two softwares ( medical application) which open pdf via adobe reader XI.
Theses softwares often can't open pdf, just after the adobe reader install( using adobeArCleaner+Customisation Wizard XI).
At this point Internet Explorer is ok to open pdf with adobe reader...
We have to launch manually adobe reader once on the computer to make the two applications to manage openning pdf
Launching adobe reader seems to finish the installation...
Did the editors have to put an "option" when they open pdf ( to act like Internet Explorer...) ?
Thanks

I am very glad to have a so rapid answered!
Sorry I was not precise...
When the file should open,
for one application an error is happening,
for the other application which is a "web" application, an other window ( not "web") opens with adobe reader and the pdf document ( the expected behavior is to open adobe reader and the pdf file in the web window already opened)
I think that the file association is ok, if we double clik on a pdf, adobe reader is opening and then the file is opening in adobe reader window...
If I open Internet Explorer and I search for a pdf on the web, It is openning in the same window web.
But something seems not finish for the medical softwares...

If they are saved on your iPad, they are as safe as anything else.

Why the question marks? Can you open PDF files or not? You don't need Firefox to open PDF files.

How do I open .dll files automatically with Adobe Reader through Firefox?

Hi,
When I print eBay labels through Firefox, a .dll file is downloaded. This used to open automatically in Adobe Reader, but now it opens as a text document in TextEdit, so I have to manually open Adobe Reader, change options to show "all files", and then locate the .dll file and open it.
When I try to change the default application in Firefox preferences, I can't find anything with the content type "dll".
Is there a way to have Firefox automatically open .dll files with Adobe Reader?
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
Steve

That worked, thank you!
I quit out of Firefox, renamed the file like you said, restarted my computer, and restarted Firefox.
When I went to download a label, Firefox asked me which application to use, and I picked Adobe Reader. I also checked the box to make that the default. This automatically opened the file in AR, and then when I did it the next time it worked perfectly.
Again, thank you so much for your help with this - although it's just a bit of time here and there saved it really adds up!
Take care!

Need help with Adobe Reader App on ipad

Hi, I downloaded the adobe reader app on my ipad recently and saved lots of documents in it under the “Document” tab. I do my backup on iTune regularly. But I am unsure if all my documents in that app will be backup in my iTune. What worries me is that next time when I buy a new ipad, I cannot transfer the documents over. Any help? Or do I have to painstakingly upload them to Acrobat.com? Is that a storage limit for Acrobat.com? Thank you!

Hi Sophieberry,
You can back up your all document via iTunes. Tethered your device with your Desktop/Mac and open up iTunes. Select your device from the left hand window, and go to the apps screen , scroll down to the bottom of the screen, and then select Adobe Reader from the list.Now select all the document and tap on Save to option and enter the location where you want to save the PDF. Hope this will solve your problem of back up.
However, you can back up your file to Acrobat.com and storage limit for this is 2GB.
Thanks

My iPhone is trying to open PDF Mail attachments with tiff viewer

I receive my faxes via email. They are delivered as PDF files. Sometimes when I try to open them on my iPhone, it says that it cannot open the tiff file. The attachment is clearly named with a .pdf file extension, but the iPhone still tries to open it as a tiff. Other PDFs open fine, but it treats these as if they are tiff files.

George is correct. XFA forms (which the mobile Reader does not support) are often built with a generic error (like the one described) page that displays for Readers that do not support these document types.

Unable to open attached documents in emails with Adobe Reader 9

I get emails with attachments but when i try to open, i keep getting a warning saying .... ADOBE READER CAN NOT OPEN DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT IS EITHER NOT SUPPORTED FILE TYPE OR FILE HAS BEEN DAMAGED.....etc. I presumed that as the attachments were most likely WORD documents (and I only have Microsoft WORKS) that this was the reason. So i downloaded the free Microsoft Word reader but still unable to read. I send the emails to friends to open and they send them back to me.....Its becomming a bit annoying for them understandly....Can anyone help me...Many thanks

By email client I mean the email program: Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird, ...
But anyway, this is of no importance; it is your file association that is wrong: Word documents (.doc, .docx) must be associated with Word, or in your case Word Viewer, not Adobe Reader. This is why you cannot view your attachments.
On the other hand, the installation of Word Viewer should have corrected that, not sure why it didn't.
What I would do if I encountered your situation:
uninstall Adobe Reader and Word Viewer
reinstall Adobe Reader and Word Viewer
