Cannot open PDF files on surface tablet on the network.

As the title suggests, our shelves are not on the field but can connect to our wireless staff and through our portal to access their network drives. When you select a PDF file in this way, it opens and asks you to choose an application on the tablet to open it with. I can't find Adobe Reader in option - although I put it as default program for the file type in the control panel.

Has anyone else had a similar experience?

Concerning

Scott

It seems that this is indeed a problem with our cisco portal based and his inability to manage the long filenames correctly - it renames them and creates a temporary file, which is throwing the drive when trying to read them. Hope this is perhaps out of use to someone.

  • Many of our users cannot open PDF files.  You must select the player as the default PDF Manager once a day.

    What was once a rare problem, became a chronic problem, because some changes to group policy by an administrator of AD.  We have disabled all GPs that relate to Acrobat, but we'll still have to connect to workstations users to remember that it is the default manager of PDF in Acrobat Reader (found under Edit > Preferences > General.)

    As I mentioned above, this was happening from time to time, and I don't really know why.  We use 9.5, X and XI versions, and each of them have exposed this problem in the past and currently.  If we could find a whole network solution to this question (rather than having to connect to dozens of individual work stations every day), we would be really happy.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    We believe that we have found the answer.  Apparently an admin six years ago had created a batch file named ironically called 'Adobe Fix.bat', who calls a login script to set the following registry key on each computer:

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat\Exe]

    "@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 8.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe\"

    Since C:\\Program Files\\Adobe\\Reader 8.0\\Reader\\AcroRd32.exe no longer exists on any computer, no PDF files would be the load until you said Acrobat what software to use to open.

    Remove this script should solve the problem.

  • Cannot open PDF files on Web sites, or when it is attached to the email!

    Hello
    My computer is running Vista and I had this problem for the last 2 years! I can only receive the PDF sent by one of the companies I work for. I can't open most PDF files sent by attachment or all the files on Web sites. I have Adobe 9 and Foxit Reader and it does not work with either. I tried to re - install Adobe and still no luck. With Foxit Reader that I can manage to open the PDF files sent from the company I mentioned earlier, but that's all. I would really appreciate some help... Thank you very much! :) x

    Try this: uninstall all the software that you have to display the PDF documents. Then try to open a PDF file. You should receive a message that "Windows cannot open this file". If you get the message that the file is "corrupt" or "not supported" means that you have another program or display of PDF files.
    Once you receive a message that "Windows cannot open this file" download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.3).

  • Cannot open pdf files. Acrobat 10

    Cannot open pdf files. "Acrobat cannot send a DDE command '.

    Thank you John. The problem has been resolved. I'm sure this has to do with changes of microsoft with one of their updates since I subscribe to Office 365. Somehow my Acrobat version 10 a program started working again after a week of being disabled. I use windows 8.1 and dread of having to go through windows 10 soon.

  • Cannot open PDF files in Distiller 8

    Last week I was able to open a PDF with Distiller 8.  Now, when I try to open a PDF file, this is the warning he gives: warning: Distiller is not treated. Newspaper. PDF or. The JDF file extensions

    I do not understand why I was able to open the file one day and not the other.  I was able to select a PDF file and select 'Open with' and Distiller 8 was in the list and the file would open as it would if I had opened in Reader or Acrobat.  I need to open the file in Distiller to make the necessary changes.  You cannot make the same changes to the files in Reader or Acrobat, as you can the Distiller.  Please help me if you can!

    Same answer three years ago, but I will state as simply as possible.

    Acrobat Distiller does not open PDF files in some way, shape, or form. The only purpose of Acrobat Distiller is to convert PostScript to PDF files, nothing more and nothing less.

    If you need to change aspects of a PDF file, including properties, image compression, file size, etc., you open a PDF in Acrobat Pro and use the native PDF that are appropriate.

  • Cannot open pdf files in Firefox.

    I can't open pdf files in Firefox. (I can't in Chrome).

  • Cannot open PDF files

    I have a HP Pavilion desktop pc with card mother at660a and that you just download the latest Mozilla fire fox and now I can't open PDF files when I am still on the web, can I open then, but as soon as I insert in downloads on my drive hard all the that get is a blank page with the exception of the border etc. but no script , by the way this pc has never used Mozilla firefox.
    But when I use internet explore that it's ok, I have Mozilla on my other PC and I have no problem, but they are charged with an earlier version when I try manually open with Adobe reader, he tells me that the file is corrupted hope you can help thank you.

    For some reason, your Firefox is who identified himself as version 9 instead of version 19. If you select help > about Firefox, can you verify that you have version 19.0.2 or click Find updates and get the current version?

    19 of Firefox has an internal PDF Viewer. To switch to a different Viewer, see the following article: How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer. Note that this does not apply to earlier versions of Firefox.

    Finally, please note that current versions of Adobe Reader 10.1.6 and 11.0.2. For your safety, make sure you have a current version.

  • Cannot open PDF files by e-mail more

  • Cannot open pdf files downloaded due to the period in the file name (filename incorrect, says this is not a supported file type)

    My colleague from shared files with me through a flash drive, but a number of its pdf files included a period in the name of the file, and now I can not open them. Is there a way to solve this problem on my end? He is a colleague busy, and I don't want to ask him to pass through and rename all its files.

    Files with a period have the same name (next to this period) than the others

    files in the same folder? If Yes, then you can ignore them, they just Mac

    stay, no real PDF files.

  • Windows 10 - cannot open pdf files in MS Reader

    Hello, I have recently updated my phone company to 10 Windows in Windows 7. I have been using Acrobat Reader XI without problems. Since I was walking, opening PDF files always ends without response. After you open the PDF, he held only icon for a few seconds and then nothing (not even a blink of a new window / frame). I already tried several methods:

    • Uninstalling XI player associated with the application of advanced uninstaller. Put it back, with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
    • Complete uninstall of the CD with AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2015 player. Then reinstall > unsuccessful
    • I also tried the CD Player update to the latest version, and then using to repair mechanism (help > repair installation) > same result

    When I open the CD (shortcut or *.exe) directly, it runs normally and it allows me to open probably almost any PDF file as in the past. But if I trie to open any PDF file, it doesn't do anything. After consulting the table of processes through the Task Manager, I discovered that there are two processes that are running in the background "Adobe Acrobat Reader (32-bit) DC". It is + 2 after trying to open another PDF file / CD player.

    I also had this same problem on different machines. This is quite annoying, because I don't want to use the native Windows player...

    My current status:

    HP ZBook 15, i7-4800MQ, 16 GB of RAM

    MS Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)

    Adobe Acrobat Reader DC - Czech (15.008.20082)

    Hey tomasnav,

    Open the drive, go to the Edit-> Preferences-> Security enhances & disable protected mode.

    Check f, it brings a change.

    Kind regards
