Error opening of Adobe PDF files

Hello...

I suddenly got an error appear whe opening most of the PDF files - 'there was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired. »

Subsequently, I am unble to open these files. I am on a Mac with OS X 10.8 and am using Adobe Acrobat version 10.1.4.

The files are primarily downloaded / saved on my desktop through Safari. Here are the files PDF that I previously helped to open but all of a sudden cannot.

Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! ... Thank you!!

Oops... too late - I felt it was pretty simple and legitimate given I could recovered files that I deleted from my library, and downloading has been on the official Adobe site yet...

In any case - to complete this process successfully!

It actually works – remove the two original files in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, and then download Adobe Reader from the Adobe site 10.1.4. What is the best, I'm far from being technical interest, yet found this is simple to fill out!

I have tested the phone bill PDF I mentioned earlier and another 'Report' (PDF) file that both have been saved from the Internet directly on my desk. The previous two files don't open always, however, the newly registered copies these files reopen very well!

Thanks mate for putting me on this link-, it worked a treat bloody!

See you soon!

Michael

  • Blue screen error when you try to print Adobe PDF files

    Original title: the computer crashes when I try to print Adobe PDF files.

    I unintalled and reinstalled remains 9.3.3 and it still won't print. The OS crashes when you try to print a .pdf file. I can open the document and view the file but not print, just the blue screen and restarts. I opened a word document, print and print text files. It will print anything but Adobe files. Is there any help out there?

    Thank you for your support and help Sicard. I finally got to the last version of Adobe as the culprit. It seems that the latest version 9.3.3 was causing problems. I uninstalled the software, cleaned the registry and other remains and installed the various editions of Adobe. Seems that Vista likes only one software version which proved Adobe 8.0. Once I installed the software, found a few .pdf documents and tried to print. Not only did it print well, it was very fast. Of all the places to find the 8.0 Adobe has been installed on my recovery disks. I don't think Microsoft product (s) are the root cause. Something in Adobe was the cause of the crash. I have the error message has not write against accidents, but it dumped memory and restart is fine, no conflict of driver. Only thing I did after each accident was to defragment. the hard drive and RAM by using certain tools. Vista ran fine since. I know a lot of people out there do not like Vista, but I did have a lot of problems with the software. I found problems with other types of competing software and work with software developers using their products in beta. The crash of the problems were not these beta products. I believe in keeping software simple and effective, it seems that Adobe will conversely making it too complicated software and an application's entire concept.

    Thanks for you help,

    "Configure the browser to open PDF files in Acrobat window.

    If you want the browser to open PDFs in a separate Acrobat window, to set the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader as a helper application. Then, when you select a PDF file in Internet Explorer or AOL, the browser opens the PDF file in an Acrobat window instead of the browser window.

    To configure the browser to use Acrobat or Adobe Reader to open PDF files:

    1. quit Internet Explorer or AOL.

    2. launch Acrobat or Adobe Reader.

    3 Choose Edition > Preferences.

    4. Select Internet in the list on the left.

    5 disable the display option IN the browser, and then click OK.

    6. restart Internet Explorer or AOL.

    Note: The next time you select a link to a file PDF, the browser may ask you to open or save the file. If you choose to open the file, the browser opens the file in the support application that you specified. If you choose to save the file, the browser downloads the file to the hard drive.

    You can try saving the PDF file on your desktop before trying to open it.

  • Our InDesign seems to have lost the ability to open/modify a PDF file. Any idea on why this might have happened or how to fix it?

    We had to install InDesign CS6 recently on a Windows 8 machine and after using the program for a few days/weeks successfully, the user pointed out that it can is no longer open / edit a PDF file. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how can I solve this problem. If I uninstall and reinstall the program I'll be able to use my existing license?

    InDesign has never been able to open or to modify a PDF file. Illustrator can do it, somehow, but unless the PDF file has been created in Illustrator and contain the original Illustrator file information, it is not a good idea.

    PDF has been designed as an end-format and is not really intended for further editing.
