Why after downloading a pdf am I getting that the file is corrupt and can not open?

why after downloading a pdf am I getting that the file is corrupt and can not open?

Probably the file got corrupted during the download?  Download it again.
If that does not correct the problem, can you share that file download?

  • I have installed Firefox 4 twice, and each time I get a message that the file is corrupt and can't be opened.

    I ordered a download of PagePlus X5 from Serif in the UK. The program is 706 MB. Several times, only 300+ MBs downloaded. The program had .exe but the partial download had .msi. The message that came up was "Setup was unable to find the msi package or patch . . ." Serif suggested I install Firefox as a web browser to see if the program would download. That is what I tried to do, and that is when I got the message that the file was corrupt. Serif is sending me a disk. Is there a disk for Firefox?

    How large is your iPhone's storage? 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB? You can go to Settings > General > Usage, and that will tell you how much storage you have used and how much you have left. If the storage is truly almost full, then you would need to either delete files from your iPhone, or sync less files from iTunes to your iPhone.
    Hope this helps!

    Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
    Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
    3. Delete the Application Preferences
    Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
    7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
    That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
    I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
    I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
    Please review and consider.
    Thank you.

  • Ive brought music and i cant download it the error said that the file is corrupted and it wont download the file

    ive brought music and i cant download it the error said that the file is corrupted and it wont download the file, its never happnd to me before

    Even though you're getting a different error message, try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

  • HT3345 How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    How do I open a password protected excel file created on a PC in numbers 09, on a MacBook Air?  I get a message that the "file is encrypted and can't be opened"

    This is actually not true; I support users who are doing this w/ Excel 2011 (v14.2.2+) for Mac and Windows users w/ Excel 2003 & 2007.  Win users are from finance dept, and who have pasword-protected various budget files.  The Mac users are (surprise) "creative" users, who enter pw to unlock and edit these budget files.
    These files are shared from a Mac server (running 10.6.8 server), and I do have an erratic problem where all users have read-only access to these pw-protected Excel files.  The manual work-around has been to copy the troublesome file(s) and confirm users have full access again.  I also do a shuffling of filenames, so that the new, working file has original file name.
    FYI: the Mac server POSIX and ACL permissions are correct, and don't appear to be source of the problem.
    It's easy an SMB file-locking issue or concurrent users trying to edit these files.  I keep reminding them that Excel is not a database!

  • I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    I bought a song, and it says the file is corrupted and will not download what should i do?

    If you see the "Purchased" option on the main screen of the iTunes Store, here's what I'd do:
    1) Go into your library and delete the file if it downloaded. If not, go to your downloads and delete it from there to stop it from download.
    2) Go to the Purchased pane in the main iTunes Store section, locate the item, and try the download again.
    Also, you may wish to turn off any anti-virus or anti-malware programs before you try this again, as that sometimes is what can be blocking the download. Otherwise, contact iTunes Store Support:

  • I'm trying to download Mozilla Firefox, but everytime I try, the download is interrupted by a prompt stating the file is corrupted and it stops the download. Help!

    I'm currently using Internet Explorer and it is SO slow. I went to this site and tried to download Mozilla Firefox. It begins to download and then is interrupted by a window that pops up and says the file is corrupted and it shuts down the entire download. This has happened about five times. Please help!

    The Mozilla site. It's the correct site, I'm sure of it. I'm becoming EXTREMELY irritated with Internet Explorer and haven't even been able to really use the internet on my own laptop because of how many problems I have with IE. I've tried NUMEROUS times a day to download Mozilla Firefox and the SAME thing keeps happening. It'll get to about 3% loaded and say it's an Unknown Publisher and I tell it to run anyway and then immediately after that, it says "Extraction Failed: File Corrupt" and the download stops. PLEASE HELP. PLEASE.

    When you have a compatible Numbers file in icloud (from Numbers on a mac), then when you invoke Numbers on a device, that file immediately shows up in the main window that lists all documents in Numbers.  (Same thing for Pages.)
    I haven't used Numbers, only Pages, so I just made a test.  Created a Numbers file on the mac and "move to" iCloud.  On my iPhone, the file didn't show up - hmm.  Then I remembered I had turned off wifi and in settings have 3G data for documents turned off.  When I turned on wifi and went back to Numbers, the file appeared.
    I suspect you need to import the Excel file into Numbers and then save it as a Numbers file to iCloud, using "move to".
    Using Mountain Lion and latest iOS and Numbers/Pages.

  • I have been trying to download Firefix 4, and eveytime I try to install it on my computer I get the message that the file is corrupt

    I am using an iBook running OS 10.3.9 - and each time I have tried to launch the download so I can install it on my hard drive I get the message that the file is corrupt and so it won't complete the operation.

    It sounds like you must have Automatic Downloads enabled on the Phone in Settings>iTunes & App Store>Automatic Downloads>Apps>On. That is why the apps are being downloaded to the phone, I would have to assume. You could try turning that off on your phone for starters. Although I don't think that would have any effect on the iPad, it won't hurt anything either.
    Try this and see if the apps show up on the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Cannot "print" a window as pdf then read it in Adobe Reader; Adobe says the file is damaged and cannot be opened.

    Running Firefox 4.0 on an Intel Mac OS 10.5.8. Same problem with Firefox 3.6.16. You can save a Firefox window as a pdf file by using the File dropdown menu and selecting Print. Under Print, you can select PDF, then Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF. Firefox will save the file. If you try to open the file you get an error message that the file is damaged and cannot be opened. I did not have this problem in Safari; I followed the same procedures and the pdf file opened fine in Adobe Reader. Why is Reader rejecting the pdf file produced by Firefox when it did not reject the pdf file produce by Safari?

    If anyone is reading this still looking for what caused the issue and how to fix it here is what I discovered.
    The antivirus program our company uses, Bitdefender Antivirus Plus, was causing some of the PDF files not to open. After troubleshooting the different modules and settings the culprit was..
    Scan SSL in Privacy Control Settings. Turning it OFF solved the problem and all the PDF files that previously would not open now open just fine. This issue has been sent to Bitdefender for them to review. If you use a different antivirus program and are having this issue try locating the Scan SSL setting and see if turning it off solves the problem.

  • I paid for and tried to download the song "Cryin" by Aerosmith but it won't let me download the song each time I go to the store and click on available downloads, it looks like it's downloading and I get an error message that the file is corrupt

    I paid for and tried to download a song from itunes but the song won't dowload! When I got to store and click on available downloads it looks like it's downloading but I keep getting a message that the file is corrupt.

    I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the item that is not downloading properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the entry, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
    (Not entirely sure what happens after you click that link, but fingers crossed it should be relatively straightforward.)

  • I keep trying to upgrade my version of Firefox but everytime I download the upgrade I get a message stating that the file is corrupted. Firefox keeps telling me I need to upgrade but I can't seem to make it happen. Can someone help me?

    For several months I have been trying to upgrade my Firefox version, which is no longer supported by several software platforms I need as a songwriter, such as Flashplayer, etc. After I download the upgrade all I get is a message that the file is corrupted. I am not very tech-savvy so I need to talk with someone who can explain what to do in layman's terms.

  • My PDFs with form fields get "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired." on anothers computer, PC and MAC

    Im creating PDFs through InDesign and using Acrobat Pro 9 to add fields.  I save them to allow ADobe Reader people to use them.  Everything works fine on Pro and Reader on my end with a PC as well as someone elses PC.  But one person using Mac said some forms work and some dont.  Those that dont get the error "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."  Ive resaved them and made sure they work and same problem.  There is nothing overly coplex about the PDFs either, a date field at the most.  They are using Reader 9.1.
    I found out the other day that one person who can open them adds info to them saves them and send over to that other person and cannot open any of them after they have been edited, same error.  He even tried on a PC and still gets it.
    I dont know what to do.  I know it has to be on his end and not mine.  What else can I suggest to him??

    It sounds like they are using an earlier version of Acrobat or Reader, though you said Reader 9.1. If you add some features in AA9 that are new, it appears that earlier versions see the new features as damaged files. At least that is my guess. Try using Reduce File Size or PDF Optimize to save to an earlier version and see if that helps. The other option is that you are getting them messed up in e-mail because many client look at PDF files as ascii and do not encrypt them. In that case force the encryption. You can also send them in ZIP form.

    When I try to open a pdf file I get the message: "The file is damaged and could not be repaired." I've downloaded the latest reader, but that has made no difference. I use a Mac 10.8.2. Any suggestions or info?

    Does this happen with every PDF file or a specific one ? Maybe the file is really damaged.
