Unable to convert PDF files to any other file format using Acrobat XI Pro

Acrobat XI Pro ver11.0.2
Office 2013 Pro Plus
Windows 8 Pro
When I open a PDF file and try to export file to: Word, RTF, Excel, XML or PowerPoint, I woud receive the error below.
Save As failed to process this document. No file was created.
I recall in the past that I was able to export PDF to Excel & Word. I simply tried the other file formats to see what happens.
Unfortunately for me, this is happening to both of my machines. Same version software except the other machine is Windows 7 Pro. I have admin level rights to both PCs.
Not sure what to do at this point.
As another test, I did the following.
Created a document in Word, then saved as a PDF file. Opened that PDF file to save as a Word doc and I received the error listed above.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thank you

Thank you for the suggestions
"Created a document in Word, then saved as a PDF file. Opened that PDF file to save as a Word doc and I received the error listed above".
I used another machine. Created a Virtual Machine with Office 2013 and Acobat XI and I do not have issues with converting PDF to any of the available formats. Its not the file I'm using, its the software itself that is the issue.
Unfortunately, I did uninstall Office 2013 & Acrobat XI then reinstalled but I still have the problem so I can only guess once its broken in the registry, I will continue to have an issue.
For now, I'm going to move Acrobat XI on the VM since I dont have time to reinstall Windows 8.

Documents, pdf's, and any other file?

Is it possible to put Word documents, power points, pdfs or any other file into your webpage so that a preview of it pops up and it can be downloaded?
I added text and hyperlinked it to "a file" but it won't allow it saying that there is "no extension".
Is there a solution?

Select your "document" on your hard drive and ZIP it from Finder/File/Create Archive and then try linking to it. This will allow it to download when the link is clicked when viewed in the a browser.
You can place a "preview", in some form, on the web page and use this as the download link.
For example, you could type some "lead in" text into a shape and select the shape as the hyperlink.
Another way would be to put the preview and the download link on a page of its own and exclude this page from the navigation. When you create the hyperlink to this page you would select Link to "an external page", enter the URL for the page something like - http://web.mac.com/myname/mywebsite/documentpage.html
- and check the "open link in new window" box.
Then it will appear us a "popup" new window in the browser.

Convert PDF Chrome extension does not appear/install for Acrobat 10 Pro

I have Acrobat 10 Pro and the Chrome extension to convert web pages to PDF does not appear in Chrome. I tried repair installation from the Help menu in Acrobat and it still did not resolve this problem. The extension also does not appear on the extension list, in case you're wondering if it's deactivated. I am using Chrome Version 36.0.1985.143 m.
I would appreciate the links and steps I need to take in order to get the Adobe Convert to Webpage Chrome extension to be visible and functional on my Chrome toolbar and in my extensions list. The PDFMaker shows up in Internet Explorer. I do not use Firefox.
I have already tried disabling all of my other Chrome extensions and run a repair of Acrobat via Actions.
I tried uninstalling Google Chrome, restarted my computer, downloaded the latest Chrome installer, installed Chrome, and launched Acrobat and repair Acrobat.
I'm totally at a loss at this point.
Can you please help?
Thank you for your kind assistance!

Hi angelczech,
The convert pdf extension will not appear in Chrome with Acrobat 10.
It will with Acrobat 11.

Using Firefox 4.01, I cannot open a PDF in a new taw or window -- window opens but no PDF ever opens and cannot find in download file or any other file on my mac?

Mac Powerbook OS 10.6.7
Firefox 4.0.1
After a recent update, I now cannot open PDFs that have typically opened in a new tab or window? Have searched preferences for a fix but no dice... help?

Try this. Open one of your files. The window that contains your picture is named at the top. Command click on the name and you'll see the entire path starting with its name and then moving to the folder, the folder it is contained in, etc all the way to down to the hard drive volume name. This should tell you where to find the folder.

C# DLL for integrating adobe for printing either xml file or any other standard format

Hi Forum,
Wanted to know if we have a DLL which can be refered in the project to convert documents from microsoft office , xml ,html , cad diagram,images to pdf file
Need help urgently.
Thanks you

Acrobat is an interactive tool and not suitable for this purpose (also, many say the license does not allow it, see the Developer FAQ)
Adobe have a range of PDF products for servers, all in the range "LiveCycle". Several of them make PDF, I think the one for you may be LiveCycle PDF Generator. I think the API is Java.

I can't Convert midi files into any other format

A few months ago, I was able to convert midi files into mp3 when one day, I updated iTunes using software update. Ever since the updates I had for my Mac it still hasn't work.
It has this error that won't allow me to convert. I talked to my friend wrldwzrd89 who is one of my friends and he said that it is because Apple had a piece of data missing allowing midis to be converted to mp3, or any other format.
Is this true or do you know the solution?

I can't tell you the exact reason why it doesn't work, but there is an article about this problem and a solution if you have QuickTime Pro:
iTunes: MIDI files cannot be converted in iTunes 6.0.3 and 6.0.4
Not the last sentence in the article. That usually means they're working on a fix.
No guarantee that it will be fixed in the next version however. We'll have to wait and see.
Hope this helps.

Printer not selectable from drop down when printing any pdf file. Printer is available when printing any other file format.

Client is running Adobe Acrobat X. When trying to print their Ricoh printer can not be seen in the drop down menu. The Printer was added locally and the printer can print any other file format.

Your ps file should be good, the problem likely resides elswehere. Maybe in your acrobat install, distillers settings. what error did distiller give?
Mine ran good and got a multi page document, here is a screenshot to help you troubleshoot.
On mac go to system preferences / print and fax / and change your default printer if you have another option. I know sounds like this should not help, but there are problems like Illustrator for example not making .pdfs if you do not have a printer chosen or an old or corrupt .ppd assigned.

I purchased PDF Converter Plus, v1.0 (4 ). I am unable to convert PDF into text. I get all gibberish when I try to do the conversion.

I purchased PDF Converter Plus, v1.0 (4 ). I am unable to convert PDF into text. I get all gibberish when I try to do the conversion.

I went to the site and did exactly as the 'support' said. I tried three PDF documents for conversion to Word. On clicking 'convert', the last window gives the file with .doc suffix. After I save and open it the window says, "The XML file cannot be opened because there are problems with the contents." Under "Details", it says, "Incorrect document syntax".
Please guide me further.
Thanks

I am unable to convert pdf to word on Export - says "subscribe now" - I am already subscribed.

I am unable to convert pdf to word on Export - says "subscribe now" - I am already subscribed.

I am having the same/similar problem. When I attempt to sign in from the conversion section, the program will not allow me to sign in, so I am unable to convert the PDF to any other program. However, I can sign in on adobe without problem. It is a real mess as I need to have this program functioning today and I have been told there is no one available to help until Monday. That does not seem to be the type of support that we have all paid for.

Problems emailing any other file format other than a .jpg

I am having problems emailing any other file format other than a .jpg in mac Mail in Leopard. Is anyone else having this problem?
I have tried PDF, .tif and .doc documents, and they are small files, less than 150 kb. I have checked to ownership on the images and it says that I can read and write to them. I have also checked with my ISP and my mailbox capacity is 10 MB and was recently emptied. I am able to log into my ISP's webmail portal and send these types of attachments through there successfully, which has made me convinced that it has to do with Leopard or Mac Mail because I did not have these problems in Tiger.
When I send a message like this, Mail says, "Sending" for a while, and then says "Cannot send message using server:(Name of my server) Sending the message content to the server failed. Select a different outgoing mail server."

I've been sending .doc files with/without also .jpg as attachments without problems so it is possibly not a Leopard problem. I know this doesn't solve your problem though. Someone else may be able to solve the problem.

Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"

Everyting was perfect earlier. Used to convert all my videos into iPhone mp4 format using Any Video Converter - then add it to my iPhone 3GS. But last few days, I cant add video files to iTunes. and the iTunes doesnt even specify the reason except for that "files are not supported"
Everything is fine.
-They are the right format
-Quicktime is updated
-I have tried simply dragging them into the 'movie' library
-I have tried going to file<add file to library
Nothing works, has anyone else had this problem and found a way around it?
Any and all help appreciated.

In addition to Mike's suggestions, you only have 4GB of RAM and Mavericks does use more RAM than other versions. You may also want to look at the apps that startup on login and the possiblity of upgrading RAM.

No preview or preview button appears when I try to print a web page, as it does for any other file. How can I arrange for preview?

n the dialog box that appears when I try to print any web page, there is neither a preview nor a preview button, (although there is a preview if I open the web item as a pdf file, but that takes an extra step. A preview appears when I print any other file on my computer (a Macbook). Is there a setup procedure that will give a preview when printing one or several web pages?

The Print button in the "3-bar" Firefox menu button drop-down list opens the Print Preview window.
You can click the Print button in the Print Preview window or use the Print item in the File menu (File > Print) or use the Ctrl+P shortcut to have access to the print selection item and other print setup options.
* Tap the Alt key or press F10 to show the Menu bar.
* Use "View > Toolbars > [X] Menu Bar" to have the menu bar visible permanently.

Data Recover From Formatted Drive? What is the best program to use to get back Logic Projects and any other file type?

I was in the process of reorganising my hard drives so I could RAID them however I managed to corrupt one drive and had to format it which meant I lost all my Logic Files and some other files. I managed to save a lot of files (mainly video files) before I had to format the drive but I need a Data Recovery service that will not alter anything on the hard drive and will put all the formatted files (regardless of the type) back for me so I can get the rest of the ones I need.
Thanks in advance.

What about folders and such?
No. FS doesn't reconstruct folders. However, Data Rescue does, depending on how you use it. About the only thing in Data Rescue a Quick Scan ever seems to show you are files that are already live.
So that leaves you with a Deep Scan, or a Deleted Files scan. The first pass of a Deep Scan will attempt to retrieve folders and files, along with their original names. The second pass only looks for file patterns. Like recognizing a Photoshop .psd file. It will recover it, but give it a nonsense name. A Deleted Files scan only results in nonsense names of recognized file types; no folders.
What were you using File Salvage on? A hard drive?
Yes, though you can use it on a flash drive, or any other mounted drive.
At the moment it is estimating 289 hours remaining on a 1TB drive. Can it not go faster?
No, both of the software mentioned are slower than molasses in January. When you delete anything in Windows, its file table entry simply tagged as deleted. So to unerase them, the tag is removed. That's why it works to quickly and easily (assuming you haven't already overwritten the data to be recovered).
In OS X though, the whole idea of the underlying UNIX structure is all about security. It's not supposed to be easy to retrieve deleted items. When you delete items, their file table entries are erased. So the only way to find deleted items is to scour the entire drive for BOF (Beginning Of File) markers that don't have a matching starting block to anything that is in the file table.
Another question, half the drive was empty. Will it fly over that empty space or will it sieve through it incase there was some files stored on it?
If you use the Expert mode is FS, you can choose to do that:
