Why can't I open PDF and what is error 1606?

When I try to uninstall Adobe Reader the error 1606 message pops up , unidentified publisher, %appdata%, Adobe Reader 9.3.4. Have been unable to open PDF files for awhile.

Launch Adobe Reader from your Launch Pad. Then accept the end user license agreement.
I found that suggestion here > ADOBE - ACCEPT END USER LICENCE AGREEMENT

Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install.

Why can't I open PDFs anymore and Adobe Reader won't install? This happens only in Safari. I have tried changing my security preferences but it doesn't help.

missyzz,
which version of OS X is installed on your Mac, and which version of Adobe Reader do you have installed? Did you ensure that all of your browsers were not running when you’d installed Adobe Reader?
To use Preview to open PDFs, download the PDFs to your Mac, and then use Preview to open the PDFs locally. Since you can open PDFs in Firefox, it sounds like you don’t need the Preview workaround.

Why can't I open pdf file? Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't

Why can't I open pdf file? Get a black box with a white x in the upper left hand corner that won't open either

I get the same thing... no matter what site i try to pull a pdf for IE10, it gives me the black x... if i use chrome it works, but my client does not want to use a different browser.
I followed the guide that Pat posted... nothing worked... I have uninstalled and reinstalled Java, Adobe reader, Adobe flash,.. upgraded to IE11, then back to IE10 due to medical software that is not compatable with IE11...
The kicker is that my Admin profile works just fine.. no issues.. so i know it has something to do with his profile....
Please.. someone... help!!!

Why can I not open PDF-files in InDesign CS4?

Hi,
Well then, as I wrote in the headline... Why can I not open PDF-files?
I get a notification that says that either the file is already open (which it's not) or it is missing a plug-in thingy for this kind of file.
So, how do I know which plug-in thing I should chose from Adobe which will solve my problem?
Could it be enough just to update the program? I tried with 6.0.6. upgrade but it wouldn't even open up. I'm not so good at this type of computerproblems (choosing upgrades, plug-in etc.). The program is not upgraded for a long time, unless it do it automatically, but I think we've chosen it not to....
Please help!

Why can't I open PDF files created in Adobe X using Adobe XI? How do I fix this?

Why can't I open PDF files created using Adobe X in Adobe XI?

I try and open them in Reader (double left click on the file) and all I get is a single screen with two overlapping frames neither of which have anything to do with the subject although the presentation title is at the top. One of the frames had "Adobemail.com" on it. Our work computers were recently up-graded to Adobe XI and this was the first time I tried to open a presentation that has worked fine in the past. I would have thought that Adobe XI would have been backward compatible, but it doesn't seem so. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have an 08:00 First-Aid class tomorrow and need this presentation. Apparently Adobe forums are off-line for up-grades. Thanks

Why can't I open pdf files allthough having adobe reader 9 preinstalled on my new windows 7 laptop?

Hi!
I think my question might be simple to answer, so please if you read this give it a try...
I just bought a new laptop with windows 7 on it. Adobe Reader 9 was allready installed. I wanted to open simple pdf files, but I got the message "Adobe Reader ?" in an empty field that pops up.
Why can't I open pdf files? Do I also need to install the Adobe Flash Player as well?
I would be very glad if you could give me a hint.
Thanx

It appears as if Adobe Reader is not correctly installed. Try installing the latest version 9.2 from http://get.adobe.com/reader/ - make sure that you uncheck any unwanted software bundled with the download.
P.S. no, you don't need Flash Player to open PDF files.

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?

Why can not I open WinRAR and WinZIP via MS Web Folder?

Why can not I open WinRAR and WinZIP via MS Web Folder?
For example, If you attempt to open the zip-file error: "Invalid fileid: <file name> ".

Hi -
I am unable to replicate your issue. I am able to open winzip files just fine through MSWebFolders. Your Windows client may have an older version of the Web Folder Client (MSDAIPP.DLL). Can you find that file on computer (should be in common files\system\oledb) and check the version (right click --> properties -->version flag). We support 12.0.6415.1000. There may be issues with older versions of that file (some of those issues are discussed here - http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webfolder-client-list.html).
Office 2007 SP2 provides the most recent version of MSDAIPP.DLL

Why can't I open PDF files on iMac?

Why can't I use PDF files on my iMac or iPad ?

Here are some PDFs you may want to try http://www.dpor.virginia.gov/cic-ombudsman/
I can open them in my browser, but when I save them they are blank. Those emailed to me don't open. I get this error message:
Please wait...

I'm using Mac OSX 10.9.2 and latest version of Adobe Reader on a Macbook Air. I've tried Preview, Pages, Mail, PDF Signer. All give the same error message.
Here's what the folks at PDF signer told me a couple of days ago:
That PDF document was created using Adobe LiveCycle Designer and contains
proprietary Adobe data (known as XFA forms) that is not part of the PDF
specifications. This PDF document will only open in Adobe products (Acrobat
and Reader), all other PDF viewers/editors are unable to open these kind of
documents (e.g. it won't open in the Mac's "Preview" application as well).
Unfortunately, Adobe uses this to promote their own products instead of
providing the information and tools for other PDF engines to use these
documents.

Why can't I open .pdfs any more?

All at once I can no longer open pdf files through emails after saving them to my pc. Using Vista and Reader XI. I can open them fine on my android phone.
I read something somewhere about trouble with Adobe AIR. I don't use it but did download it a few days ago. I had trouble a few days ago not being able to open the .pdfs. Then they all opened. Now a day or so later, again I can't open them. Now I find I can not open new .jpgs either.
This is what I'm seeing
Adobe Reader can not open (attachment) .pdf because it is either not a supported file type or be4cause the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded). I sent the email with the pdf attachments to several others on their own computers and they didn't have a problem opening them up.
I tried to open them through Adobe photoshop. It said 'Not a valid portable document file'
This is the first time I have used this forum. At one point it told me that I wasn't allowed. That I would have to speak with my administrator. I am the administrator. I am the only one who uses this computer.
help :-)

Hello 'Test Screen Name', I did reply to Pat Willener on that question. I'm not sure why it isn't showing up here. In response to 'Can you open one of the affected PDFs with a text editor such as Notepad, then copy and past the first few lines......."
'no I'm not able to open the new .pdfs with notepad or any new default program. It says 'File Does Not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Crate an association in Set Associations Control Panel.'
However, I am able to open older .pdfs and sometimes new .pdfs from the same sender I am now having problems with. I generally only received .pdfs from this one sender. Can it be that she is saving them wrong? She says she isn't doing anything differently, but not long before all this started she said her pc crashed.

Are you saying that Adobe Reader or Preview can't read PDF file that you download? Or, are you saying that you can't display PDF files in your Safari broweer? If the latter, then delete any AdobePDFViewer plugins you find in /Library/Internet Plug-ins/ and restart. That should allow Safari to display PDFs in its window. BTW, that's the worst place to view them. Better to download them and use Adobe Reader or Preview.
