It can not open PDF files in IE 7 or IE 8.

It can not open PDF files in IE 7 or IE 8. I have to use firefox. This just started last week. Whenever I try to open a pdf file, IE freezes and no response.

Are you running IE 7 and IE - 8 on the same computer?  If so, how?

Uninstall and re - install Adobe Reader should fix.

  • FixIt can not open PDF files

    I can't open PDFs in Firefox - I get a gray screen stating "this plugin is vulnerable and needs to be updated". I go to updates for Fixit and the link takes me to things that I don't understand. I've been using Foxit Reader and this is my default player. I have no problem with Internet Explorer it works very well, it's just with Firefox which I prefer by far apart from this problem.
    I changed FixIt as my AVG Free software was telling me there is a problem with Adobe Reader XI (11.0.01) and so I got feed with it I deleted Adobe from my computer
    I had several suggestions to support Foxit, but nothing seems to work.
    I have reset Firefox by default given parameters always get the same message.
    Help, please

    Hi - Thanks for that - I just did a reinstall of Fixit as you mentioned, and the problem is always the same.
    I want to emphasize that I had five support proposals Fixit (yours being a) that I made and still the same problem. They're still trying to get out.
    I checked the internet and it seems I'm not the only one, but nobody seems to have the answer. Which makes me wonder if it could be a setting on the computer. But then why is there a problem with IE.

  • I can't open pdf files in firefox, and I tried all the solutions proposed by others. How can I reactivate pdf in firefox?

    I have recently switched to Firefox to Google Chrome, and I find that I can't open all PDFs from the web in some way in Firefox. I can't download them and open them in Adobe Reader and I can't preview them in Firefox, or I can use the plugin from Adobe. I tried to use the solutions posed by users on this site, but none of them have worked. Whenever I have an amendment to the settings to try to resolve this problem, change never allows me to view the pdf file, and the setting reverts to the previous setting after the browser is restarted. I don't like how to display the file, but I need to be be able to see a preview or I need to be able to download it.

    I use an adobe download add-on, 3.0.0.2, and I have disabled. Now, I can actually open pdf files in my browser shows a preview, or download them as I see fit. Thank you!

    But clearly, there is an error with the add-on.

    What I pay a subscription for?

    Hi phillipk70320833,

    I checked your account details for the same ID you use here on the forums.

    You bought subscription Adobe PDF package that is why you are unable to open a PDF file.

    You should perhaps install Adobe Reader (free software) or buy a subscription to open a PDF Acrobat DC file.

    Let me know what you want so that I can offer others.

    spirty,
    This sounds like it could also be a permissions problem. I'm guessing that when you copy-n-Paste the form on the LINUX Server, you did what Windows Explorer. When they are copied to the server LINUX file will be created with the default privileges defined on the file. I recommend that you connect to the LINUX Server and check the permissions on the file. If your file permissions do not match the permissions of the text.fmb (or other files .fmb you have there) I suggest that you change the permissions so that they match.

    I hope this helps.

  • I can't open PDF files

    I have Adobe Acrobat 9.2 installed. When I receive a PDF file instead of open it using Adobe (as it did in the past) Microsoft Word Viewer takes over and asks me to do a file conversion. Everything goes down hill from there.
    I'm running Vista, I deleted Microsoft Word Viewer under all programs.
    Used to be able to open PDF files without problem.
    If I right click on the file it asks me what program I want to open with; the only option it gives me is OPEN.

    Go to start / Default programs / associate a file or Protocol with a program and highlight .pdf.  Shall be provided to Adobe Reader as the default program, but it probably isn't.  Click on edit, and then see if Adobe Reader is one of the options indicated.  If so, choose it and save your work.  You will now be able to open PDF files.  If Adobe Reader is not one of the options, click Browse and locate the executable file of Adobe Reader (it will be probably somewhere in a subdirectory of the secondary Program Files directory) and select that, like the program by default.  Once again, once done you should be able to once more open the PDF files.  Chances are good that the Microsoft Word Viewer set themselves up as the default for PDF files and now there is noplace to (they have no valid link).  The reason why you have no options to open with, it is that there is probably no configuration of the associations for the PDF files and programs.

    You can also try to uninstall Adobe Reader and then re-install.  That should restore the association and solve the problem.  How to solve the problem, it is up to you.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

  • Help? Adobe Acrobat Standard 11 - just bought for windows 7, now I can't open pdf files or tie?

    Help!

    I just bought the last Adobe Acrobat XI Standard.

    I put in the serial key number but my computer tells me that calling a product is not found on my computer so I can not use the adobe product. So now I can't open any file or attach PDFs to emails without this message coming. I uninstalled the "Adobe Acrobat XI Standard twice! with no luck.

    I need it sorted as soon as possible because I'm working! Any suggestions?

    DotBellaParis if you are prompted for a product calling it so it would seem that you purchased an upgrade to Acrobat Standard XI.  You should have the option to enter the serial number of your previous purchase of Acrobat.  You can find information on how to locate your previous issues of the series at http://forums.adobe.com/message/3987968#3987968?promoid=KBHJW.

    If you did not intend to buy an upgrade, then I recommend to submit a return request.  You can find more information on the presentation of a return to the return, cancel, or Exchange an Adobe order - http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/return-cancel-or-change-order.html.  Once you have returned the upgrade you can then buy the full version which will not ask you for an eligible product or a serial number.
