ATTEMPT TO FIX N ° 2
So I went to my Antivirus, Avira Antivirus program.
and I changed:Configuration > CUSTODY > SCAN when READING and WRITING > USE FILE EXTENSIONS LIST >
And here, in the list of extensions of files to analyze and prevent, I deleted the list: JPEG, JPG, PDF.
This does not solve the problem.
FIXING NO. 3
I also run the new MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS BETA.
went to MICROSOFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS (BETA). SETTINGS > EXCLUDE FILE TYPES > and added *.jpeg and *.pdf
There was no change, when I tried to open the PDF attachment, I always received: "command failed implementation.
FIXING NO. 4
(By the way, I have nothing better to do in my office on Monday morning held that fix this bug for MSFT).
I removed IE 8 on my system and actually removed all IE from my system, I'll stick with Mozilla.
No change.
CORRECTION ATTEMPT N ° 5
I finally found an electronic bulletin board and followed the suggestions to save the file to my desktop and then
Open with Adobe and it worked well.WHY CAN'T I OPEN JUST JOINED MS MAIL?
OK, I found another thread with an answer that works.
Why this answer doesn't work, I have idea of NF.
Instead of opening the e-mail from a shortcut program, on the desktop and open the e-mail program on the start menu to:
Go to: all programs, then select Microsoft Mail.
Then the attachments will be opened.
It worked for me, it's worth a try.
Good luck to you. I know that's no fun.

For a reason that my laptop has begun trying to open e-mail attachments with pdf and he can't, they are in word and open because of this ICAN t. All ideas
Because bad "file association" is set to open the .doc
Start button > Default pPograms > Aossociate a Type of file or Protocol to a program > wait loading > under NAME scroll down and look for .doc, until it clicks > everywhere, look under current by default, it should say either Microsoft Office Word if you have it, or Microsoft Word Viewer...
Obviously in your case, it says Adobe Reader > at the top, click on Change Program... > scroll down until you find Microsoft Office Word or Microsoft Word Viewer > if you don't see one of them, click on other programs and find > until it clicks > click OK > click on close

Open a pdf document that has attachments inside on a mobile
I have a pdf file with attachments on the inside, I'm opening on a mobile device.
It opens correctly on my desktop, but mobile, attachments do not show.
No idea why?
Hi Willy,.
We have received your PDF document by e-mail. Thank you!
We have reviewed your PDF document and discovered that two HTML files are fixed as annotations of the type "FileAttachment '.
Here are two ways to attach files to a PDF with Acrobat Pro (for example).
Method A: attach files and embedded files
- Open a PDF document.
- Open attachments navigation pane.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Add an attachment on the menu that appears.
B method: attach files in the form of annotations
Acrobat Reader (for iOS, Android, and Windows Phone) mobile application support embedded attached files (added using the method) but doesn't support file attachment annotations (added using method B). We apologize for the inconvenience.
If you have the desktop version of Acrobat Pro, you can perform the following steps to re - join the files using A method to avoid the problem of compatibility with mobile applications of Acrobat Reader.
- Open your PDF document with attachments in Acrobat Pro.
- Open attachments navigation pane.
- Select a file displayed in the attachments navigation pane.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Save the attachment to save the file on your desktop.
- Click the Options button.
- Select delete attachment.
- Click the Yes button to confirm the deletion.
- Click the Options button.
- Select Add an attachment to re - attach the saved to a PDF file. (Alternatively, you can drag and drop a file on the navigation of attachment pane.)
- Repeat steps 3 through 10 for each file.
- Save the PDF document.
In this way, the portable versions of Acrobat Reader can open attachments.
If you do not have the desktop version of Acrobat Pro, you can try the free trial version of 30 days to see if it meets your needs.
Download Adobe Acrobat free trial | Acrobat Pro DC
Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
Thank you.

The button action to open PDF attachments
Hello
I have an interactive form and want to create a button that will open a PDF file that has been added as an attachment. I know I could host this attached PDF somewhere and then use a link or something but I want the user to be able to use this PDF file locally. So I'm NOT looking for a way to add attachments, I'm looking for a way to OPEN attachments existing PDF without the user to open the attachments Panel.
I can't find a way to do this and I think I have to use a Javascript action to do this.
any help would be much appreciated
Thank you
In fact, no script is needed. There is a built-in way to do.
Add your button object or a link and then add an action "go to a page view". When the floating window with the 'Set' button will appear, just to double-click the attached file and navigate to the location you want to link to, and then press the Set"" button. Done everything!

Can you open the PDF docs? Otherwise, here are some things to try...
- Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, and then double-click Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
- You can open Adobe Reader by itself? If so, try to disable the Protected Mode [Edit |] Preferences | (Improved) security].
- If Reader opens in itself, try to disable the Safe_mode in the registry; Download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
- It might even be a malware problem; See http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html
