  • There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired.

    Greetings,

    I searched the forums, and this mistake has been examined in the context of how to treat a damaged PDF file.

    My question is a little different. The company that I am working has a tool to create what we call "knowledge base articles", i.e. product XML authoring with us help topics. They used this tool from 2008. Files can be attached to a topic. The XML files and attached PDF files is stored in a SQL database. Using the TOC Panel or the search function, relevant topics are retrieved.

    When there is an attached PDF, users can view the PDF in the browser or download the file and open it locally.

    The knowledge base has been moved from an environment of database SQL 2005 in Windows Server 2003 and IIS 6 for an environment database of SQL 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2008 R2, IIS 7.

    Now that we have the following problem: in some subjects the downloaded PDF can't be opened and one error

    "There is an error opening this document. The file is damaged and cannot be repaired. "is displayed. The curious is that some PDF files published this error, while others open without a problem. Source file all PDF files open without a hitch before they are downloaded.

    Any advice or pointers would be very appreciated.

    TIA, Donna

    Donna,.

    as you have probably read in a lot of discussions on this matter, this error message is usually correct, and the PDF file is damaged. As for how it gets damaged, it's something you need to know by poking around in your system. Here are a few general things that always apply when working with corrupt files:

    The first thing I would do is open such a file corrupted in a text editor such as NotePad to see what it actually contains. Any valid PDF file must begin with '% PDF -' followed by a version number. If you don't see that in the first line, then you are not dealing with a PDF file and you know why you do not get the file saved in your knowledge base.

    If this string is there, then you know that there a PDF file and the issue is somewhere in this file, and is where it gets much more complex. You will need a good understanding of the PDF specification to parse the file to see what is wrong with him.

    If you're lucky, you'll actually have a file of length zero (which means also no PDF header). No valid PDF file cannot be zero bytes long. Your second chance case would you find in fact an HTML error in this file (instead of PDF content), that tells you the reason for the problem (but again, this depends on your system).

  • After FlashPlayer 11.04, a site with videos, like YOUTUBE opens a separate process and videos appear in the upper left corner and cannot be moved.

    After update to a version after FlashPlayer 11.02 when you open a window with flash videos on, next to the Firefox process in the taskbar appears a new process with the Flash Player icon and the video window is placed in the upper left corner and cannot be moved. If there is more a video on this page when you click on that Flash Player icon, you can see a list of all the videos.

    Using Flash Player 11.02 this problem does not occur and I used this solution for quite awhile, but now, if I use this version, I get a black window with an error message on security reasons, but if I click on it it plays without any problems. Although in a few Web sites that require Flash, he says he needs at least version 10, but I 11.02 but does not recognize it and ask to be upgraded.

    It's very weird because that doesn't happen in my laptop, I have a desktop computer with the exact same windows and version Firefx and this happens. I already tried uninstalling Firefox completely and even remove all plugins and extensions, and the problem persists.

    Uninstall Flash player also solves this, but then I wonder to upgrade the Flash player. This problem occurs in Chrome or IExplorer 10:

    http://Tinypic.com/view.php?pic=24v2u4l & s = 4

    Recent crashes of some multimedia content (this includes the Youtube videos, some flash games and other applications), in collaboration with Firefox are most likely caused by a recent update of Flash 11.3 and/or Real Player browser plugin to malfunction.

    To resolve this problem, follow the steps in these articles in the Knowledge Base:

    Adobe Flash plugin has crashed - avoid that it happen

  • I have a PC with windows 7 Home Premium installed. The PC is faulty and cannot be resolved. Can I reinstall the same Windows 7 to a new computer without additional cost?

    I have a PC with windows 7 Home Premium installed. The PC is faulty and cannot be resolved. Can I reinstall the same Windows 7 to a new computer without additional cost? If yes how can I do this? Some people reported issues license keys and it cannot be registered once in a PC.

    Thank you

    It is the major limitation of the OEM software that it can be installed on a PC. The COA label will confirm whether the license is OEM. A number of elements can be replaced in a PC in the way of repair, but only if exactly the same model of Council can this be exchanged.

    Even if you transfer the drive to the new PC would not authenticate because of the change of equipment, and it would be unlikely to to re-authenticate online.

    If the label is not OEM and you have a retail package, so it can be transferred.

    Two points:

    1. What did you perform analyses with? Not all anti-virus and anti-spyware programs are just as good, and some of the more popular are among the worst. There is a good chance that your problem is caused by a malware infection.

    2 ignore what the RCS registry said that you are errors and do not run this software once again.  Registry cleaning programs are * all * snake oil. The registry cleaning is not necessary and dangerous. Let alone register and do not use any registry cleaner. Despite what many people think, and what software record cleaning providers are trying to you convince to have used the registry entries is not really make you hurt.

    The risk of a serious problem caused by a registry cleaner by mistake delete an entry you need is much greater than any potential benefit it may have.

    and also http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/archive/2005/10/02/registry-junk-a-windows-fact-of-life.aspx

    Let me stress that neither me nor anyone else who warns against the use of registry cleaners has never said that they always cause problems. If they have always caused problems, they would disappear from the market almost immediately. Many people have used a registry cleaner and never had a problem with it.

    The problem with a registry cleaner is that it carries with it the essential * risk * to have a problem. And since there is no advantage to using a registry cleaner, running the risk is a very bad deal.

    Are there specific error messages or error report numbers given when it fails, or is it just apparently running, but does not find anything?

    If it is running, but apparently not finding anything, just leave it for a while 'loooooong. It was reported a few recent Wu take many hours to find anything, esp if she has a lot of updates to find and install.

    If its reports an error/message number, what (exactly) do report?

    Something to try:

    Update your anti-virus software and run a full scan. Then:

    If its doesn't work, check that service 'Windows Update' and 'Background Intelligent Transfer' are listed and running, according to the instructions of the ' how to check if services are running' section of this article - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2730071 IF you have actually the error referred to in article, try the FixIt.

    If WU and BITS services are listed and running, try to reset the Windows Update components - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/971058

    If still no joy, run the update utility - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Windows-Update-troubleshooter what makes as that report?

  • I have a license of a vector, but the file is damaged and cannot be repaired.

    I have a license of a vector of Stock and when I import it into Illustrator says "the file is damaged and cannot be repaired." I need to edit the vector in illustrator and import it into indesign. I log off CC and reconnected I know sometimes that's helped before with images but that did not work. At the same time, I also registered 2 images that work well, but not the vector. I have the license of your web portal, not the application, but I don't think that should make a difference. Any ideas on how to get this vector to work? Thank you.

    The number is #50433877. I had to call customer service and they couldn't get it to work either. They ended up giving me a credit and I've used a vector that is similar to the for replace. Strange preview works perfectly, but when I have a license for it, it broke.
