Hi,
All of them or just one or two ? Please scan 1 page (for test) from computer and select document then open scanned document. You may need to update Adobe reader as mentioned on the following help:

I am unable to open scanned documents (with .jpg file extension) in my e-mail inbox, on the Mail app on my iPad. Please provide a clear answer. Thanks a lot.

Can you actually see that the attachment has a .jpg extension? Some mail systems strip it off (I've seen AOL do that) which makes the attachment difficult to open.

Unable to open scanned documents

I cannot open scanned documents once they are saved to my computer.
I am using HP Officejet Pro 8600, scanning from the glass plectrum and the scanned documents automatically appear on my Computer under the program PDF Complete Special Edition.

Thanks for the reply. I worked it out, I was still using the free trial of PDF Complete so I've purchased the full version and it seems to be working fine. Thanks for the time.

I installed Firefox 3.6. Since then, I am unable to open pdf documents in Firefox. I get a black page. I tried opening the same document in Internet Explorer. It worked fine. I recently installed Nuance's pdf reader and thought that might be the problem.

Every time Firefox opened

How about if you right click on the PDF and select Save Link As..., and then open it locally from within Reader? Does it work ok then? That might be a workaround until the issue within the browser is resolved.

Unable to open the document when combining files.

We have a user that gets an error when combining files. It says
Unable to open the document:
<Filename and path>
Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file.
Retry and cancel buttons.
We get this error on every subsequent file, it works on the first one after the computer starts.
This computer has Windows Vista Business with SP2, Adobe Acrobat X with the latest patches.
It doesn't matter if the files are local or on a network drive, the same always occurs. I have cleared
all user and system temporary files, re-installed, verified the Acrobat Add-In for Word 2010 is active,
verifed the PDF printer is working fine. It only happens when trying to combine files. I have given the
user local administrator privilidges, tried with my account that has domain admin priviledges, no luck.
I really need some suggestions...
Thanks,
Tom

I have found out from Adobe technical support that this is a known issue with Office 2010 SP1 installed.
This is an FYI for anyone else experiencing this issue, remove SP1 and it will work ok.
They said an update to correct this issue will be coming within the next quarter.

Have recently updated Adobe Reader and now unable to open downloaded documents - Message received is could not open 'file name.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). When I check the file it shows Zero KB downloaded but the file appears - any suggestions?

Obviously your download was not successful.
What is your operating system? How exactly do you download such files?

Need Help - Acrobat 9.4 won't open scanned documents

I have a computer in my office that will not open scanned documents in Acrobat 9.4. Acrobat opens but is just a grey screen. Documents that were converted to PDF from Word/Excel/etc. will open just fine.
Adobe Reader 10X is also installed on the computer and will open scanned documents, but user needs to be able to go in and edit documents, so Reader is not enough for him.
Any troubleshooting ideas greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Since scans are images you need to go to Edit > Preferences > Page Display and put a checkmark in the box for "Show large images" This should allow you to see the scans.

Acrobat X Pro - Unable to open the document

I'm having issues testing Acrobat X Pro trial version and Office 2010 on XP Pro SP3. When trying to convert a Word document I consistently get the message - Unable to open the document. Please check to see if you have read permission for the above file. If I hit "Retry" a few times it will eventually convert the document. If I initiate the conversion from within Word it seems to work fine. I've confirmed that permissions are not the problem. It doesn't matter if the files are on the C: drive or a network location. Most of my users use the combine so converting from within Word is not an option. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sorry but no. Big bummer. Keeping me from going to Win7 and Office 2010 on many systems. Honestly, I haven't looked to see if there are any patches avaliable since I orginally posted.

XenApp 6.5 and Acrobat issue: "Unable to open the document".

We are using XenApp 6.5 with a published desktop Windows 7 x64. If we open Acrobat Pro 10.1.5 and Create PDF we get an error "Unable to open the document". If we do the same action directly on the XenApp server then it works as expected. The Word doc in question was created by the test user and is located on their Home drive area so the permissions are correct. If i try to save the Word doc as PDF it works fine directly and indirectly.
There seems to be lots of people asking similar questions here:

BCA error Message: (0) Unable to open this document, undefined error

To whom it may concern:
          I am using BO 6.5 and I activate the BCA module. One of my document shows the message "(0) Unable to open this document, undefined error" and no result is generated. Please help me to find out.
Antonio

Dear Sarbhjeet:
        Thank you for your answer but I found that the problematic BCA job does not contain a too-long file or doc name. Finally we found it is the synchronization problem of the universes between repository and the local copy. And, your answer at my another posted question solve it.
        Thank you again!

Unable to open scanned Kaiser Baas jpeg files in Photoshop Elements 6

I have scanned photos and negatives using Kaiser Baas Photo & Negative scanner. I am unable to open the jpeg files produced using Photoshop Elements 6, any advice on how to?

I don't seem to have any trouble opening the file in pse 6 on windows xp.
I'd reset the pse 6 editor preferences and see if that makes a difference.
Press and hold Shift+Ctrl+Alt just after starting the launch of the pse 6 editor
Keeping holding down the keys until you get a dialog asking if you want to delete the photoshop elements settings file
Press Yes in that dialog

HT204365 Unable to open PDF document saved on ibooks.

Saved a downloaded pdf document on iBooks, and now I am unable to open it. The original is NLA so redownloading is not an option.
Any way to recover the document? Any recommendations are welcome.

PDF files should be forward compatible, but not backward compatible. Thus, AA5 PDFs should still be fine. If there is a problem, it is likely they have been corrupted. You can open the PDF in a text editor (such as notepad) and look at how it starts. It should be something like "%PDF-1.4" where the %PDF-1.4 at the beginning provides the version number. If you do not see this form of the first 8 characters, then you do not have a PDF or the PDF is corrupt. The latter could happen depending on the manner in which you transferred the file to view. DO NOT Save the file from the editor.
A common mistake is to post PDFs with FTP using ascii. Unfortunately, only the 1st 8 characters are necessarily ascii and the rest may be binary -- the issue that messes up many e-mail programs that only check the first few characters for the ascii nature.
Hopefully that gives some thoughts of use.

Ever since the new numbers update that I installed I am unable to open my documents. I receive a message I need to update....

Ever since I updated my system to 10.9 and updated the numbers, iphoto, imovie, pages etc I have been unable to open my numbers documents. I keep getting a message I need to update. My computer shows I did. Whats happening?

I was opening my documents from the document folder on my dock and that's when I couldn't open them. I also couldn't open them from the old icon for numbers on my dock. I even couldn't open from finder. After recieiving your message I did use the Applications to open numbers and it did work. I also had one document set with a password and I still had problems opening it. Once I got it open I removed the password temporairly and it opens now from the document folder like it used to before. Oh yes, I forgot to mention I removed the old Numbers icon from the dock. Then I dragged the icon from the Applications folder onto my doc and all seems fine.
Thank you for your help, I just don't know why these things just don't update automatically from Apple. Ever since using Apple products these past 3 1/2 years I've decided no more Window's computers. Please to Apple.....is there a way they can take care of these updates beforehand?
