When I open a pdf link I am getting an error "The system cannot find the file specified. " The same link is opened in other browsers.

I used to open the link" http://supportdocs.sonybiz.net/indexes/pi%5CLFS%5CMay_2004%5C00035186.pdf" in firefox earlier. Now I use version 5.0. Recently I noticed that such links in pdf are not opening with firefox and getting an error that "The system cannot find the file specified. " But the same is opened in other browsers. I do not know whether it is a settings problem or limitation of firefox.
It is very much helpful if someone can help me in resolving this issue.

That link has backslashes (%5C) that need to be changed to forward slashes:

  • Error: "The system cannot find the file specified" when trying to print to PDF w/ Acrobat 9.5

    I get an Error: "The system cannot find the file specified" when trying to print to PDF w/ Acrobat 9.5 using Windows 7.  This just started happening after upgrading to MS 2013 suite and also installed Adobe Reader at that same time.
    I had problems in the past when Reader was installed with Acrobat, so I uninstalled Reader, but the problem still seems to occur.
    any help would be appreciated.

    Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
    Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
    http://www.rarlab.com/
    Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
    Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
    (If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
    Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
    If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

  • I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a General Failure box stating 'The system cannot find the file specified' yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I use Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010, when clicking a link in Outlook I always get a box stating
    General Failure. The URL was "http:// etc etc".The system cannot find the file specified.
    Yet it still goes to the specified page. Any ideas on how to resolve this

    I am having the exact same problem with Windows 7 Professional. Out of the blue, this issue just started a few months ago when running my monthly Windows Backup where I have used a USB drive for the last 3 years, and never ever had this issue before. Most
    of the solutions listed on the Microsoft websites and answers deal with
    "Restore" functions, not the
    "Backup" itself. I have 3 folders being skipped during the backup.
    So I went and changed the Backup from "let Microsoft choose files, directories, etc" to "Let me choose". I included the files and folders that were being skipped, and ran the "Backup" again, and got the same error message,
    but the files that were skipped the first time were "Backed up" finally. This issue is somehow related to my "Libraries"?
    The 3 backup problems are:
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book Recordings. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book CD Label-Cover Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Backup encountered a problem while backing up file C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\My Audio Books\Audio Book MP3 Tag Art. Error:(The system cannot find the path specified. (0x80070003))
    Did a "checkdisk" - no problems. Ran a program to fix registry - no problems. All updates up to date. I guess I could eliminate these folders from the Backup folders in the
    Library, and just choose them under the "Users" locations, and be done with it. But I really want to understand this, and fix it. This is within Windows 7 and may be related to Windows Media Player or
    some recent Windows update.  Thanks.

  • The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.

    H,
    Since upgrading Windows server 2008 R2 to Server 2012 Standard edition, we get this repetitious critical error in the event log:
    Event 1001
    Op Code NLS initialization
    The NLS operation failed because the registry key Control Panel\International\User Profile cannot be opened. Error code is 2. Error message: The system cannot find the file specified.
    We originally found that the regional date settings after changing them in regional settings (DD/MM/YYYY) and they did not inherit properly from the upgrade but they are ok now. 
    I've looked at HKCU\.Default\Control Panel\International and nothing looks obviously wrong. Country codes, time & date formats are correct.
    How do we ascertain the  cause of this error and the specific registry key that might be problematic?

    Hi,
    This could be caused by firewall rules or security softwares.
    http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/242579-44-hkcu-control-panel-international-opened
    And in addition, the fix is worth a try.
    Nothing happens when you double-click "Region" in Control Panel

  • Error message "The system cannot find the file specified." when reinstalling C3180 drivers

    Hello,
    I experienced scanning problems with my C3180 and the error message indicated several solutions, including to reinstall the driver.
    I worked my way through the list of fixes to this option.  I uninstalled the drivers, downloaded
    File name:
    AIO_CDA_NonNet_Full_Win_WW_130_140.exe [1/1, 290.27M]
    from www.hp.com/support and attempted to install.
    Just after the accept licensing screen, the system begins a screen with four steps, the first of which is Checking System.  Shortly after starting this, I receive the error message "The system cannot find the file specified.".  The file name may be in the message header, but I cannot determine it due to the path length.  It is off the displayed screen.  (see screen image capture)
    Closing the pop-up error message or clicking OK terminates the installation.
    I am re-installing on a Dell Latitude E6510, running Windows 7 Professional, Service Pack 1, 64 bit.  The printer was connected via USB, but I have disconnected for this stage of the install.
    I appreciate any assistance/advice you can offer.

    What steps did you use to add the Replicat?  Can you list those commands out.
    Also, does this file actually exist on the server where Replicat is running: C:\app\Oracle\product\gg\dirdat\tr000000

    hi
    when i trying to install a software for example CAD Viewer software, my windows show this message : The system cannot find the path specified
    i use the windows 7

    Zohre
    What version of the CAD software are you trying to install?  Is it compatible with win 7?  Older installations (on older OS) installed to a different default location that win 7 does not have.

    can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently  i  stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the  sql server agent.
    should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
    note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
    ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
    Update:
    now am getting the message :
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40

    First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
    Use CMP_143
    Go
    Sp_helpfile
    Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
    Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
    EXEC @RC = sp_attach_db @DBName, @DESTData, @DESTLog
    Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file
    Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)"
    Solution:
    Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.

  • "The system cannot find the path specified" error when installing a network printer running Win 7

    Some of the end users are having issues when trying to install network printers. We have created a portal where they can locate the printer they want to connect to, click connect, and the printer will download with the correct drivers on their PC's. The
    entire company is running Win 7 for their operating system. One end user in particular has had issues installing multiple printers from the portal, when I go to test installing these same printers on my PC, they all install successfully. trying to figure out
    why some end users hav issues with installation and others do not. They will get the error, The system cannot find the specified path. Any help would be great

    Hi JeffWilko,
    What is your current situation?
    To receive better analyzation, please provide more details?
    1. Could you explain a bit about the sentence ‘installing multiple printers from the portal’ ?
    2. Check the event viewer and share us the related error log.
    Please take the following steps for troubleshooting:
    1. Ping the printers
    2. Check if there are network firewall to block the access

  • Bulk Insert Task Cannot bulk load because the file could not be opened.operating system error error code 3(The system cannot find the path specified.)

    Following error i am getting after i chnaged the Path in Config File from
    \\vs01\d$\\Deployment\Files\temp.txt
    to
    C:\Deployment\Files\temp.txt
    [Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load because the file "C:\Deployment\Files\temp.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 3(The system cannot find the path specified.).". 

    I think i know whats going on. The Bulk Insert task runs by executing sql command (bulk insert) internally from the target sql server to load the file. This means that the SQL Server Agent of the target sql server should have permissions on the file you trying to load. This also means that you need to use UNC path instead to specify the file path (if the target server in on different machine)
    Also from BOL (see section Usage Considerations - last bullet point)
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms141239.aspx
    * Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can run a package that contains a Bulk Insert task.
    Make sure you take care of this as well.
