CANNOT OPEN PDF & GIF ATTACHMENTS IN WINDOWS MAIL

CANNOT OPEN PDF & GIF FILE ATTACHMENTS IN WINDOWS MAIL... VISTA

What happens when you try? Error messages? If you save attachments, first of all, they open? Do you have a PDF Reader installed?

Adobe Reader
http://get.Adobe.com/reader/

Foxit Reader

Adobe is more "well known", but Foxit is much more compact and my personal preference.

  • Cannot open the .eml attachments in Windows Live Mail

    I saw messages from November 2009 on WLM failed to open .eml attachments. Work on this problem for 2 weeks, using chat rooms, forums, tips, suggestions, etc... SO... why won't WLM open all .eml attachments I get? Had lots of advice, but none worked so far. Yet, many people are able to get to work there. When I try something, as many times the path suggested I am unable to do.  It's almost as if I had another computer than others.  Thank you.

    Yes, Microsoft Office Word is responsible.

    Save it in a folder of your choice. See if you can open it.
    If you are able to open it this way, then you need this:

    Using Player Adobe 11, now comes up with an error, once the file is opened. "Invalid Plugin detected, will waive the software Adobe reader." Close the program so cannot display PDF files. Running windows 7. I uninstalled and reinstalled the same Adobe. Help

    It seems that something has been added in the folder on the drive. I would recommend http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.htmluninstalling the program, running, removing any left over parts of the record player (this could be the problem), reboot and reinstall. If all goes well, that solved the problem. Future questions about the player, you should consider asking in the forum of reader, is not.

  • Cannot open .pdfs in Firefox

    My wife machine is running Windows 8.1, Firefox 34.0.5 and Adobe Acrobat X Standard. Cannot open .pdfs in the browser. Clicking on a link to a .pdf file will open a new tab which will close immediately, leaving me right back where I was, as if I had never clicked the link. I can right click and then save money, download the file and open it in Adobe Acrobat X. But this is not what I want, and not the way it was designed.

    Internet Explorer 11 open .pdfs in the environment described above, in the browser, with no problems.

    I followed all instructions at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/972278 and http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/cant-view-pdf-web.html. Instructions for Mozilla or Adobe can get operational.

    As a nuclear option, I uninstalled Adobe Acrobat, rebooted the machine, uninstalled Firefox, restarted the machine, re-installed Adobe Acrobat, rebooted the machine and re-installed Firefox and rebooted the machine. Attempt for opening yields .pdf to the same result, even after uninstalling and reinstalling everything. What happens here? Why Firefox opens a blank tab and then close it immediately? Block jump - rises is set to off, and blocking the windows blocker disabled.

    My own computer that is running Windows 7, Firefox 34.0.5 and Adobe Acrobat X Standard opens .pdfs in browser very well, without any problems.

    Any advice? I'm pulling my hair out! Thanks for your time.

  • I can't open or save attachments in e-mail.

    I can't open or save attachments in e-mail.  I have windows Vista 32 bit with Trend Micro Security and IE9.  It started last week.  I made no changes to the system.  I searched all the newspapers of the community on this subject without success (it would be useful if it were in chronological order, so I could see more recent issues and resolutions.  How can I recover from this serious problem that won't let me record/opening attached.  I'm getting desperate.

    Hello

    You have access to the email that you are unable to download attachments from Internet Explorer or via an e-mail client? If it is a mail client, please let us know what email client you use.

    • Click the Advanced tab
    • Enable or disable the option not to save the pages encrypted on the disc
    • Click OK

    Please post back if you have any questions about Windows. I will be happy to provide you with the additional options that you can use to get the problem resolved.

  • Saved attachments in Windows Mail do not appear in the actual file

    In Vista, using Windows Mail, attachments are saved to disk hard aren't really there.  It does not matter what type of file it is.  When you click on an attachment to a paperclip icon and navigate to the folder on the hard disk where you want to save the file, the file seems to save successfully.  But, when you go to this real folder through 'Computer', the file is not really there.  If you go back to the email and save it, it says that the file already exists (although looking at the file in a Windows Explorer window, it is not there).  If you save multiple attachments from Windows Mail to a folder, the record is displayed all files in this folder... but none are really there.  What is the problem here?

    My only guess is that some 3rd party program is screw things upwards.  You can check for antimalware, antispam, or antivirus software and see if that might be the problem (seewww.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  In OE, we suggest set you up a new identity, but it is not so easy in WinMail.  I guess you'll just to workaround it.  To ensure that the economy of attachment is selected under Tools | Options | Security also.

    We tried.  This is even if hidden files are marked to show or not.  It does not matter where you save the file in... it will not be displayed in a regular Windows Explorer window, or be seen by other software (for example, whether a file you want to import into a program).

    If you double-click the message to open it in its own window and drag the attachment to a Windows Explorer window, it save successfully and can be seen and used as usual.

  • 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.

    I just downloaded El Capital 10.11.4 and now cannot open an attachment (Word) in the mail.  I tried to click on highlight and trying to save but not luck.

    You have Word? Office 2004 won't work with El Capitan.

    You can save the attachment and then try to open it to see what happens. If it still does not open, try to open Word or Pages or TextEdit and use the command open.
