Unable to open the pdf. files.__Message: the configuration of the application is incorrect__reinstall the application.__Question: How do I reinstall?

can not solve my problem. I have adobereader 9.3

It's a fairly generic message, but basically it means that you must remove and reinstall Adobe Reader. I suggest remove you, but replace it with this drive and you will probably have a lot less headaches. It is a more compact program as well.

  • Unable to open Adobe PDF files

    Hello, I would be grateful for any input on a problem I have with my new computer. When I try to open or to view Adobe PDF files, they are not open.
    When you open a PDF in a Web site, I get the error message that internet Explorer has stopped working. Does not display a Web site.

    Have you tried that?

    "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.

    For more information on the General preferences in Acrobat or Acrobat Reader, see using Acrobat. »

  • Unable to open a .pdf file in a browser.

    For years, I ran Acrobat 6 standard.  My wife and I share the same office - it uses IE for its browser. I use Firefox.  Earlier this year we both started getting the following error message when you try to open a PDF from our resepctive browsers, that is, by clicking on a link to the .pdf file:

    "Adobe Acrobat/Reader that is running can be used to display PDF files in a web browser. If please exit Adobe Acrobat/Reader and exit your browser and try again. »

    To the best of my knowledge, Acrobat or reader was working at the time (unless it somehow goes in a context that I couldn't find).  I thought maybe it was a little problem with Acrobat 6, so I've upgraded to Acrobat 9 standard a week ago and the reader 9.1 3 weeks.

    The problem persists, although not always, and the only way to work around what I've found is to click right on the link on the Web page and save it to the desktop, then double-click on the icon and it opens.  It's a bit of a pain.

    Has anyone encountered this before?  You have a solution?

    Adobe STRONGLY recommends that you have NOT Acrobat and Reader on the SAME system. Based on my experience, the presence of these two products causes all sorts of unpredictable behavior.

    If you need Acrobat to create and edit PDF files, you need not Reader to open PDF files in any browser. You must delete a program or another and do a repair on the product remaining thereafter. I recommend also that after the removal of one product, you restart your system and then to repair the other product. If Acrobat or Reader is installed on your system, browsers should load this product to read the PDF file.

    Good luck.

  • The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005) - keep from appearing when you open a pdf file. How can I stop this?

    I'm on a 64-bit Windows 7 Pro computer and just upgraded to the most recent Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.  When I open a PDF file a window opens saying "the application could not start (0xc0000005).  Click OK to close this application"I click OK and the window opens up again about three or four times before it finally stopped.  My PDF file is then visible.  This is driving me crazy!  I tried to use "Repair Installation" in the Menu Help, but it has no effect.  I downloaded and installed the latest update - and this miserable message keeps popping up!  Before you do a system restore to revert to the previous version, can someone please tell me how to solve this problem?  Thank you very much.

    Hello

    There might be a chance of the previous version left overs. Try uninstalling Acrobat using cleaning tool: http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

    Then try to reinstall it and then see if that solves the problem.

  • How to open a PDF file using the built-in Viewer? (Windows 8.1)

    When I try to open a PDF file I have the pop-up dialogue "you have chosen to open *.pdf Firefox do with this file? And display in Firefox is not one of the options. I am sure that what is happening is that there is no dialogue, and the PDF has just opened in the integrated Viewer pdf.js. If something is wrong with my profile I guess.

    I tried the instructions here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/view-pdf-files-firefox-without-downloading-them

    I checked through all my extensions and you do not have open a PDF (I have uBlock, NoScript and Zotero).
    I completely uninstalled Adobe Reader.
    I checked that in preferences/Applications, PDF is set to "Preview in Firefox.
    I did as I went through: config and change all settings with 'pdf' on their return to their default values
    But none of these things work.

    Is there anything else I can try to get this working?

    I think the problem I had was that some of the PDF files is served by Web sites with a "header" (I don't really know what that means) called "Content-Disposition: attachment", and when this happens, Firefox refuses to load them into the integrated PDF Viewer. (I don't know why Web sites this.)

    It is very helpful, especially because Firefox gives no indication as to what is happening (why the user preference for a PDF file is not respected). I just thought that the PDF Viewer was broken and spent hours trying to fix it.

    If anyone runs into this problem, there is an extension that fixes it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/inlinedisposition/

    There is a Bugzilla bug open about it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=773942

    As far as I can see, it would be trivial reflect changes the extension above in Firefox. In the bug of no claim that it would be a bad thing to do for safety reasons. But Firefox should at least present the user the ability to open the PDF file in the integrated Viewer or even more at least have explanations on why the PDF is not currently open in the Viewer, for example "this PDF file was marked for download, so for safety reasons it has not been opened in the integrated Viewer. Who would save people like me, who don't know the HTTP headers that are complicated, just think that Firefox is broken.

  • When opening a PDF file, a new tab will open, but it will be empty, it do not download or open any pdf file, it just started the last 3 days...!

    Hello
    I'm about to remove Firefox from my computer because he lost hours of my time, and none of the online troubleshooting answers are no help.

    Until recently, I was able to open PDF files in my browser window, and today its impossible to open any pdf file, it will not download if I choose to download it.

    This issue is ongoing, and shut down for almost a year and I downloaded the Nitro PDF module to solve previously as Adobe reader add-on did nothing. Today in the menu options of applications where I can choose the program I want to open PDF files with I can't find the option NitroPDF reader, so I chose the add-on Adobe and no matter how many restarts it refuses to open all PDFs, all I get is a new tab open and empty.

    Internet Explore opens PDFs very well, so I know it's not computer associate.

    I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate, Firefox Version 19.0.

    If there is a way to fix this, please help because I am currently at the end of my patience.

    Kind regards

    19 FF has its own Viewer for pdf files. It doesn't seem to work properly. The screens are either poor quality or empty. Printing using the bad characters and spacing of bad character. Some impressions of color and others are not.

     Thankfully, it is easy to revert to using some other pdf viewer, such as Foxit. Go to Tools / Options / Applications and scroll down to "Portable Document Formay (PDF)", and change it to your preferred pdf viewer.
     Your problem is solved!
    
  • How can I get firefox to open a pdf file in adobe instead of the new pdf reader?

    Before the recent update, 19.0, I google something and see [PDF] next to a link. I click the Center button to open it in a new tab. Firefox might download the file and open it with Adobe Reader. I like this.

    With the new update 19.0, the pdf file would open in the new tab. I have to down load it and then open it in Adobe. I don't like this.

    I'm going to preferences under applications. I look to see if I can change that. Next to document Adobe Reader, I choose to use Adobe Reader, but when I click on a link [PDF], it always opens the file in Firefox and not Adobe.

    I want to go back to the way it was.

    Problem: Open a pdf file in Firefox, he wants to save the file.
    Remedy:
    In Firefox, tools, Options, choose the column on the left (Content Type) Applications tab, select Portable Document Format (pdf). Right column (Action) choose Preview in Firefox.
    I use Firefox 21.0.

    (b) move it to the other monitor.
    c. now, close the document without maximizing it on the new monitor.

    d. now attempt to open a PDF file.
