Unable to view FDF files in IE (using Reader 9 or X)

I’ve been doing the below method for years,  to merge FDF data into a PDF template, however, my code no longer works.
It can create the FDF file without issue, but it will not display the document anymore from within the browser.
If I take the data from the FDF file, and place it into a txt file, and save as an FDF, and then open from my desktop, it works fine.
I’m using contenttype to set the page to FDF, as below.
The TemplatePath is valid, and contains the proper form fields, and works fine when called from the desktop.
This effects all users on the network.
<%  response.contenttype="application/vnd.fdf" %>
%FDF-1.2

      << /T(CheckingAccountNumber) /V(<%=CheckingAccountNumber%>) >>

i forgot to mention, though it may be obvious, that the code is Classic ASP, and is a web based front end.

  • Unable to open PDF file in browser using Reader 9 with IE8

    I just updated to IE8 and when trying to open a PDF file on the browser, I received a message stating to use Adobe Reader 8 or 9.  I downloaded AR9 and still receive the same message and cannot open PDF files in browser window.  It defaults to my Adobe Acrobat 6.0 which will not open the file.  I have Windows XP.  I do not have a problem opening a PDF file in Yahoo mail with AR9.  I have tried many different ideas on the web to no avail.  Appreciate any help to be able to default to open PDF files in the browser using AR9 which is apparently required by IE8.

    Fixed problem by taking to a computer store to find that my hard drive storage was maxed out.  I had the hard drive repaced with a larger amount of storage.   Problem resulted from inadequate amount of storage space which prevented me from downloading and installing Adobe Reader 9.
    Thanks to al that responded.

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Unable to view video files in browser :[

    Does anyone know why Safari is unable to view video files in the browser ??? I used to be able to view .mpg video files right in the browser and when viewing .wmv files Safari would open up Windows Media Player which would then play the file. I really dug that feature. Now when clicking on a .mpg video file, Safari simply downloads the file to my HD and that's it. Is there an easy fix for this issue ??? Hello !!! Anybody ???

    Tell the QuickTime plug-in to play the file inside a browser window.
    Open System Preferences/QuickTime and click the Advanced tab. Click the MIME Settings button and then put a check mark in MPEG media.
    Quit and relaunch your browser for these changes to take effect.

  • I am unable to view ATV settings from iMac using AirPort utility

    I am unable to view ATV settings from iMac using AirPort utility. Having problems with ATV quitting Airplay since recently updating.

    I was interested to know if I could configure, or at least view the settings of my ATV from a Mac computer. This is because I have it connected to a projector rather than a HD TV and so it is not always convenient to view settings directly from the ATV display.
    Anyway I tried finding it using Airport Utility and it does not show up (Mavericks running Airport Utility 6.3.2 on one iMac and Snow Leopard running 5.6.1 on another).
    When I click on File>Connect Other it asks for an IP address and password. I doubt if knowing these would allow me to connect.
    The ability view settings and configure ATV from Airport Utility would be a useful feature. We should suggest this to Apple via feedback:

  • Unable to view PDF files in Infoview

    I am unable to view pdf files in InfoView (Business Objects Edge Series XI 3.0)
    When I select the pdf file from Infoview, I receive the message 'Do you want to save this file' which only allows me to save the document to a location on my computer.
    Other users can view the file in Infoview, so it probably relates to a setting on my computer.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    I've had a little look on Adobe's knowledge base; try this to check whether the issue is related with opening PDF in your browser in general:
    "Determine if the web browser can open the PDF file from your local hard drive rather than from the web:
    In the web browser, choose File > Open (or Open File).
    Choose All Files from the Files Of Type pop-up menu (Windows)
    Click Browse
    Select the PDF file you saved in step 1 of task 5, and then click Open to open the PDF file. If Acrobat or Adobe Reader displays the file, but won't display it on the web, the web server has a problem serving the PDF file. Contact the webmaster of the site from which you downloaded the PDF file."
    If so, try the troubleshooting steps mentioned here:

  • NMH405 - Unable to view any files using the FIle Browser

    Hello,
    I logged in to the FIle Browser, hoping to delete some photos from my media hub. However, I am unable to view any music, photo, or video files on this page, nothing listed. All blank when I clicked on these 3 folders.
    No problems accessing the actual files in their respective pages. I could play the music and video files, and view the photos. But I can't carry out any maintenance on them via the File Browser.
    Checked the User Guide, but couldn't find any clues to this problem. Could someone please help me?
    Thanks!

    Hi there,
    Files that were imported and stored on the Import Folder won't be detected on the NMH File Browser. You may only see them if you manually classify the files to it's corresponding folder.
    It means, you need to move the files based on their file type. AVIs, WMV, etc. should be placed on your Videos folder .. Mp3s, Wavs, etc. should be moved to the Music folder .. Jpgs, Gifs, etc. should be moved to Pictures folder ..
    Hope this clarifies your concern.
    Cheers!

  • Photoshop Elements 8 - unable to view RAW files

    Hi.
    I have been using Adobe Elements 8 since it came on to the market. I use Canon Cameras and my latest one being a 1Dmkiv.
    When I got the Canon 1D I down loaded the appropriate RAW file I think it was 5.6 and followed the instructions and changed the Camera Raw.8bi file and it worked perfect and I was able to view and edit Raw files.
    Last week my computer failed and I have had a new hard drive and hence have had to upload all my software. I installed Elements 8 back onto the computer and reinstalled the photograph catalogues I had backed up within Elements 8 before the computer crash.
    When the photographs in the catalogues were viewed only JPEG files were visible, the raw files are shown as a a grey negative with a zig zag across them. I thought that I would have to upload again the lates RAW update, which I did and went through all the instructions as given by Adobe. I changed the Raw.8bi file within Elements 8 and I still am unable to view any Raw files within Elements 8. I desperately need access to these files. Any help would be appreciated
    Best regards

    Thanks so much for your reply. My problem appeared to be that most of the thumb
    nails had lost their links and I had to individually update the thumbnails from within the program. It wasn't a problem
    with the RAW file not being updated.

  • Unable to edit XLSM files in SharePoint using hyperlink?

    Hi All,
    Unable to edit .xlsm files using hyperlink, please guide me.
    Thanks
    Ramanjulu Naidu N

    Hi Ramanjulu,
    Did this happen to all users?
    Did the "Read Only/Edit" dialog pop up when you click the .xlsm Name link from SharePoint 2010?
    Could you see the yellow message bar with "Edit Workbook" button when you open the .xlsm file in your Excel Application?
    You can check if the following kb article could solve yellow message bar missing problem, set "Browser File Handling" as Permissive for your web application, or update the registry for client Office application.
    Also check if the add-on "SharePoint OpenDocuments Class" is enabled in your IE 32-bit browser.

  • Unable to view pdf files sourced from websites

    Hi
    I have previously had no trouble viewing pdf files from various websites, however am now unable to.  It appears to be loading and then just comes up with a blank screen.
    I am able to view pdf files which have been emailed without problem.
    I have removed Acrobat Reader & reloaded but this has not helped.
    I am able to view pdfs on our laptop & ipad and the settings appear to be the same.
    Does anyone know what I can do to resolve this problem?
    Thanks!

    For Safari, you need to remove the adobe pdf plugins which Adobe apparently screwed up.  You need to remove:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    I think you can "get away with" removing just the second one.  But both for sure should allow you to open pdf's in a browser (all browsers).
    If you are not using Safari the above will work for other browsers too, although in FireFox, you could just disable the use of those plugins from within Firefox (Tools menu --> AddOns --> Plugins).
