Unable to Download a PDF

I cannot download a PDF and open it from the internet--not with Adobe Acrobat Pro X nor Adobe Reader even when the file is from Adobe. I don't get it. I am using iMac with Mountain Lion OS (10.8.2). I reviewed the Preferences but I don't see any topic related to this. I'm ready to download a file from Adobe and cannot. If I close the window I don't know if I will have a second opportunity for the download Market Intelligence Report: "Enterprise Social Media Management Software". I have block popups checked with the exception of www.adobe.com and success.adobe.com (but even unchecking that does not make a difference).

Download the file with your web browser (Safari, Firefox, Chrome). Then attempt to open the PDF file in Reader or Acrobat.
It may not be a real PDF file, or it may be damaged.

I am unable to download certain PDFs from a website

My job requires me to log on to a secure website and click on links to download pdf files. When I click on the links, the firefox opens a new tab, but that tab is blank. When I "right click" on the link and select "save link as" from the menu, the file is recognized as a php file and not pdf and I am unable to download it in a readable form. I have tried opening these files in Firefox, Chrome, and Safari and none of them work. However, the files download for other people with the same version of Mac as me without a problem.
I have tried changing the preference for PDF to Adobe Reader in the preference>application window as suggested by other online forums and this does not help.
I am able to download these same files from an email attachment which has been the temporary solution. Other pdf links from other websites don't download, but pop-up in a tab of the browser and I am able to view them. The IT guy said that he made the file so that it could only be downloaded for security reasons. I don't know if this is a reason why I am having problems with this particular kind of pdf, but not others. However, I'm not sure why I am having the problem, but not other people.
I have a MacBook Pro version 10.6.8 and I have firefox 21.0. My Adobe Reader is 11.0.03.

In order to uninstall a possibly unwanted extension, please do the following:
#From the Firefox window click the Firefox button at the top left and select ''Add-ons'', or, if the Firefox button is not shown, click the ''Tools'' menu and click ''Add-ons''.
#Once the Add-on Manager has opened in a new tab, click the ''Extensions'' button on the left side of the window.
#You should now see a list of your installed extensions on the right side together with buttons on the right side of each extension.
#To remove an extension from Firefox, simply click the ''Remove'' button on PDF Viewer (what is this?). You should see a message that informs you about the successful removal of the add-on.
#Note that some add-ons require a Firefox restart to be removed completely. To perform a Firefox restart after the add-on removal, click the ''Restart now'' link in the message.
You can find further information about uninstalling extensions in the following articles:
[[Disable or remove Add-ons]]
[[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]

I am unable to download a pdf document onto my MAC from a Canadian government website

I'm having trouble downloading a pdf document from a canadian govenrment website (I'm on MAC) in spite of having installed the latest version of Adobe reader. Any ideas?

When I go to:
Canadian Film or Video Production Tax Credit (CPTC) - Arts and Cultural Industries - Arts and Culture
www.gc.ca/cptc/forms
and attempt to download the 'Breakdown of Costs (Live Action)'
I am not able to do so
Rather I get a message saying that if I'm having trouble I should download the latest version of Adobe Reaer to my MAC, which I've done & confirmed that it's in fact installed
I still can't download the required form
They said I should contact Adobe.com if I'm having trouble.

Unable to download PDF files

Hello,
I have installed on my desktop computer the following products: Adobe AIR, Adobe Creative Cloud, Adobe Flash Player 15 ActiveX, and Adobe Reader XI (11.0.10). However, I am unable to download the PDF files that I need to use for work. On my laptop, I have these exact programs and I don't have any problems downloading the PDF files I need on there. Is there something obvious that I may be missing that is keeping me from downloading the files I need on my desktop?
Thanks,
Kala

This is resolved. I discovered that Abode Reader was not set as my default PDF reader. All documents were being sent to Microsoft Word, and it could not open them.

public static void dumpPart(Part p) throws Exception {
//     if (p instanceof Message)          dumpEnvelope((Message)p);
          System.out.println("CONTENT-TYPE: " + p.getContentType());
          Object o = p.getContent();
          if (o instanceof String) {
               System.out.println("This is a String");
               System.out.println((String)o);
               } else if (o instanceof Multipart) {
                    System.out.println("This is a Multipart");
                    Multipart mp = (Multipart)o;
                    int count = mp.getCount();
System.out.println("****************************************");
System.out.println("count" + count);
System.out.println("****************************************");
                    for (int i = 0; i < count; i++){
                         System.out.println("CONTENT-TYPE: " + p.getContentType());
                         dumpPart(mp.getBodyPart(i));
                    } else if (o instanceof InputStream) {
                         System.out.println("This is just an input stream");
                         InputStream is = (InputStream)o;
                         String filename=System.currentTimeMillis()+".exe     ";
                         FileOutputStream fos=new FileOutputStream(filename);
                         int c;
                         while ((c = is.read()) != -1)
                              //System.out.write(c);
                              fos.write((char)c);
}//dumpPart
what's wrong with this code?
Nagaraju.G

fos.write((char)c);Converting the byte to a char is unnecessary and probably harmful. Just do this: fos.write(c);

Error message 15:3 when trying to download a pdf form from government site

getting an error message when attempting to download a form from fincen.gov
"There is a problem with Adobe Acrobat/Reader (15:3)

Hi stanleyc93647247,
Are you able to download other PDF files? What browser are you using to download the file? Have you tried a different browser? If you're using Firefox or Chrome, please see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html
If you're unable to download any PDF files, consider reinstalling Reader.
Best,

Unable to download my resume to a job application.

When I browse, attach my PDF resume to a job application, it shows an error, unable to download your PDF resume. It is password protected.

Hi,
Where are you trying to download your resume?
If you are trying to download it from Acrobat.com then the file should be downloaded to your local drive. However you need a password to open the PDF file if the PDF file was encrypted with open password.
Thank you.

Unable to download pdf file in windows 8.1

After upgrading to windows 8.1, i have been unable to download pdf files sent via yahoo email, IE11 and Adobe Reader 11. Did not have this problem before with windows 8. I click on the pdf attachment, NOrton says that the file is safe but nothing happens. Am unable to save the file to my computer either. Have already reloaded Adobe Reader repeatedly, drivers for window 8.1 associated with the hardware on my system, newest version of internet explorer,, upgraded drivers for my Canon printer and still no downloads!!!
Can anybody help? Microsoft community unable to give anymore suggestions.

Wrong forum (this is Digital Editions), but ...
I find .pdf files often won't launch properly on my Win8.1. It starts the process but it doesn't do the right thing.
Try making sure you don't have any copies of Reader working (AcroRd32.exe on my 32 bit Win 8.1).
Start a copy from the start screen (or start menu if you've set one up) BEFORE you try to access the file.
Now try to do the download or open it from the downloads directory.
I find that way the file will open properly.
