Unable to open PDF files in Reader after canceling Acrobat subscription

Dear Adobe,
I have a case# 0185794056. It involves a purchase of Pro XI and a cancellation shortly after. Since the cancellation of Pro XI, I have had difficulties accessing Reader. When I click to open a file in Reader, I receive a message stating I need to renew my Pro XI subscription. What can be done?
Sincerely,
Brian Razak

Hi Brian,
If I understand correctly, you're double-clicking a PDF in hopes of opening it in Reader, but it opens (or tries to) to open in Acrobat Pro, instead. Is that the case?
Did you uninstall Acrobat Pro after canceling your subscription? If not, I would start there. Or, you could also associate the PDF filename extension with Reader, instead of Pro (the steps vary by operating system).
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

Thanks for your reply. The only way I can open the pdf file is to save it locally. I don't understand why can't I just click and open the pdf file without saving them

Open PDF files from Safari after deleting Acrobat Reader

I can not open PDF files from Safari. I already threw to trash Acdobe Reader and internet plugs in, too. Can anybody help me

I know you said you threw away the internet plug-ins, but you should double-check this since that is a very common cause of the behavior you describe.

Unable to open PDF files or Adobe Reader

I am unable to opern adobe reader or download a ner version of adobe reader.

Apparently the original software download was corrupt. I tried to
"change" it through the add and delete software area of Windows, and re-installed
the software. That seemed to work. Debating on whether to upgrade to one
of their other products. I could certainly use fillable forms, signature,
and modifiable documents.
Thank you for responding.

My bank statements are PDF read only. I cannot read them now, even though I have had no problem for the last year. My bank says it is an Adobe problem. Error message "Unable to open PDF file"

I tried uploading the newest Adobe reader and it did not help. Any ideas?

Unable to open PDF files in messages since iOS 8.3 update

i updated my iPhone 6 to the iOS 8.3 update and unable to open PDF files with in the messages app ... I was able to do this prior to the update. Was the functionality taken away (still able to open jpg and ping files)?

I visited a "genius" in the Apple Store, Leicester, this morning. After some playing around he seems to have sorted it. Apparently - now they tell me! - you don't need Adobe Reader on Macs as the Mac has its own pdf reader built-in. Safari 5.1 is now clashing with Reader and the best approach is to remove Reader - and the relevent preference files. I took one of my MBPs into the store and am just checking it out to see if everything is now ok. I'm now planning to make the changes on my other machine and will report back. (The genius said that my best approach was to bring in the second MBP but I'm not very convenient to Leicester so I'm going to give it whirl myself.)
Wish me luck.
But why did we load Reader in the first place? Are we that unusual in the Mac community? Surely, others must have done the same and are having the same problem with Safari 5.1???

Opening PDF files in Reader itself takes a long time

When I try opening PDF Files in Reader itself, this process takes a long time (more then 2 minutes for opening PDF files).
When I try opening PDF Files directly from My computer, My documents: no problem (direct opening).
Running Reader XI on Windows XP SP3.

Hi,
According to your description, you want to open pdf file in the Adobe Reader directly from document library.
I suggest you do as the followings:
1. In SharePoint Central Administration site, click Application Management->Manage Web Applications, select the web application for the site. Click Authentication
Providers, select default zone, and select Yes for "Enable Client Integration?".
2. click Site Settings-> Site collection features->"Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" click Activate
3. set the default open behavior for a document library by using the document library settings page.
4. Enable the “Adobe Arcobat SharePoint OpenDocuments Component”add-on in the IE11.
5. Add your current site URL to the trusted web sites in IE11.
There is a similar threads for your reference:

Unable to open pdf files on my IMac I have downloaded

Unable to open PDF Files on my IMac I have installed the latest Adobe Reader still no joy when I try to open any PDF File from a site I just get an empty black
page.

Is it only ones you have downloaded? What about for example the ones that came with your iMac - you didn't give a model but mine has a folder "User Guides and Information" that has a number of pdfs. Spotlight should find it for you.

Since last update, unable to open PDF files from either banking site. The other (IE) works fine but I hate IE. I deleted newer versions and went back to older releases. No help, same thing. Checked settings in options. That is ok. What's up?

Unable to open PDF files from my banking statements.

I think almost every dev is on arch-general, so that is the place to contact the group in general. Specific points can probably be emailed to the dev involved, if one is identifiable and if the bug tracker is not a better place (bug reports to my email get ignored).
I think the whole problem here is that there is really no dev in charge of that package. So your emails were probably seen then skipped over by all devs thinking not my problem... (I know that is true for me). Then Andrea noticed an "orphan" package that needed updated and went ahead with it without connecting it to your previous emails, which is unfortunate.
Now our maintainer backend is fixed, hopefully we can get all the orphan packages adopted out, or at least know if we need to bring on new people to maintain them. That way, there should always be someone who information about specific packages should be sent to.

After upgrading acrobat 6.0 pro to acrobat 6.0.1 Unable to open pdf file in IE

I have down loaded acrobat 6.0.1 pro upgrade patch from adobe site.
After upgrading pdf files are not opening in IE from our application.
On top of 6.0.1 i have upgraded to 6.0.2->6.0.3->6.0.4
On opening pdf files from IE it gives error "Document is damaged and it cannot be repaired"
Thanks,
Bhagya

You should update all of the levels and retry. It may be a bug in 6.0.1. You have 5 more updates to go. That may not resolve the issue, in which case come back and indicate the problem. However, with what you are saying about Mozilla, it sounds like you need to update IE (I am not sure what you mean by 6 & 7, unless you are talking about different machines). Sometimes you have to do a fix on Acrobat after OFFICE is updated as I recall.
I am only making suggestions about how to approach the problem. I have no clue what the problem is an can only suggest the steps I might take to resolve the issue. I forgot whether the plugin for IE is from Adobe or MS.
