Why can't I open an adobe acrobat document 1.xls. sent to me.

Why can't open a pdf file sent to me marked adobe acrobat document 1.xls ?

Mylenium is correct you will want to look at utilizing a program which lets you open Microsoft Office spreadsheets.  This is not something that Adobe currently offers.

    I don't know. What exactly happens? (Exactly - including all error messages in full please) What is your computer (e.g. Windows 7), browser, and email program?

  • I have iWork's 9 that inludes pages 4.3.  I created a document that I saved.  When I tried to open the document today, I was advised I needed a newer version of pages to open the document.  Why can't I open an existing pages document?

    I have iWorks 9 that includes Pages 4.3.  I created a document and saved it as a "pages" file.  When I tried to open the document the next day, a dialogue box told me I needed a newer version to open the file.  The information provided stated the new app would cost $19.99 and the customer ratings are quite low.  Why can't I open a previously created document in iWorks, regardless of the version.  This is the first time Apple has demanded that I pay for a new version to open existing documents.

    I am with Peter on this issue. Additionally, if you installed the latest IOS Pages (v2.01) on an iPhone or iPad and opened a .pages file on iCloud that was created by Pages ’09 v4.n, or IOS Pages v1.7.n — that document is now in the new .pages file format and only Pages v5 on OS X can open it.

  • Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?

    I think I know the problem because I've had it myself. I didn't upgrade iWorks on my iPad, but after Apple made changes to iCloud (concurrent with Mavericks) any docs passing through it were modified and made unreadable. Even though, as you say, they were created on my iPad using the previous version of iOS Pages, which I didn't upgrade.
    iCloud is the culprit, if your iPad settings had iCloud>Documents & Data enabled, the docs were modified and disabled in the cloud.
    I made a further mistake. After I saw this happening, I didn't think to turn off auto updates, and Apple pushed the new version of iOS Pages onto my iPad. The result was that ALL my docs disappeared from the iPad, and from iCloud.com also. I have not been able to recover them.
    I've been talking to the Pages engineering team about it. If they come up with an answer, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, get those older files backed up somewhere safe if you can.

  • Why can't I open a lot of documents since yosemite. They are in grey

    Since I installed the last version of OS X on my Ipad, I could not open a lot of documents on my Mac. I thought this problem would be solved when I would install Yosemite on my mac but this is not the case.
    Why are so many documents in grey and why can't I open these documents on my mac with yosemite ?

    Tell your friend to go to bit.ly to create a 'short URL' for that address.
    They can send you that & you shouldn't have to worry about the SMS or any other messaging size limitations.
    NOTE: there are many other URL shortener services…

  • Why can't I open my Adobe account in Firefox?

    I started this question a few days ago and received a response indicating a corrupt cache could cause the problem. I cleaned the cache but that didn't fix the problem. I can open the Adobe account in both Google Chrome and IE. Any other suggestions?
    Also, is there some way I can find a question posted earlier on this forum? Isn't there a format for listing the questions in order of date or whatever so they can be easily found a day or two later? It would be great, also, to just be able to log into the forum without having to go through that front-end question routine.
    I'm probably missing something, but aren't help forums supposed to be helpful, not more frustrating than the original problem.
    Thanks,
    BAB

    Have you tried safe mode? It may be a addon affecting this.

  • Why can't i open an adobe file emailed as a zip file

    My bank emailed me an important adobe file as a zip and I keep getting an error message not an adobe format or not encoded properly.  How do I open the zip file?

    Hi ferretlady,
    As you mentioned that you have zip file that contains Adobe files, you need to unzip the file first and then you will be able to open the Adobe files. For information on how to unzip, please refer to the links below:
    For Windows 8 Operating System: Zip and unzip files - Windows Help
    For Windows 7 and Vista Operating System: Compress and uncompress files (zip files) - Windows Help
    For Windows XP: Microsoft Corporation

  • Why can't I open all my Pages documents in Mavericks?

    Ever since upgrading to Mavericks my Pages upgrades will not allow me to open my documents!! Is there a better way around this than using my old version of Pages? this is very very inconvenient and not the way I'm used to working on my iMac.

    It sounds like you have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them.
    Pages 5 can not open Pages '08 files at all. You will need to Export the Pages '08 files to Word .doc/x or use Pages '09 to open the Pages '08 files and resave them.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 older Pages files can not be opened in previous Pages.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Note: Apple has removed over 90 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Why can't I open the adobe digital editions installer?

    I've downloaded the installer, but when I click to run it, it won't open.  I click and nothing happens.

    oneexwidow,
    Thank you so much!!!  I tried what you said, and it worked perfectly!  I can't believe you found the answer and Adobe tech support doesn't know about this!  I think they should be aware of this issue.  I remember that file-blocking "feature" being there when looking at file properties before, but I'd forgotten about it and never thought to look there.  I've downloaded maybe hundreds of files and I don't remember having this problem before.  I knew *something* was blocking the file from running though, and I never really bought that it wasn't Vista compatible.  After all, this is the latest version and Vista is old now, since Windows 7 and now 8 have come out.  And as I mentioned, I tried it on my mom's XP computer, and it didn't run on hers either.   I'm not sure when Microsoft introduced the security feature shown above.  I hope that everyone who has this problem can find this thread so they know what to do as well.  I think Adobe should put this on the download page so everyone can see it if they have problems.
    Thanks again for sharing!

  • Why can i not open my documents?

    why can't I open any of my documents?

    You will have to check to see if opening and saving in a .doc or .docx format is permitted in AppleWorks.  Since AppleWorks is legacy software it probably is not supported.

  • Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    Why can't I open pdf's after install of adobe reader? Should I see it in system preferences?

    There are can be reasons PDFs cannot be opened. For example, some forms created with Lifecycle Designer cannot be opened.
    Are you sure the file is a PDF? Can you open it in Adobe Reader or Acrobat on a Mac or PC? Does it give an error message when you try to open it?
