Crossbow PDF issues - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

I have Crossbow installed on my Universal. Still testing it and besides the lack of the videocall drivers I encountered yet another issue:
When trying to open a PDF file by clicking on the file in the Explorer, the built-in ClearVue PDF comes up with the error message:
===
"ClearVue PDF encountered an internal error trying to load or display therequested file."
===
This goes for a lot of PDF files, but some of them will actually open the proper way.
When I install Adobe Reader 1.0 for Pocket PC, I encounter the same problem:
===
"There was an error opening this document. An internal error occurred."
===
My PDF files are stored on my SD card. When I copy them to the internal memory for tests, it seems that Adobe Reader manages to open some of them, but still not all.
What's the issue over here?
Anyone have similar problems? I think I might try Adobe Reader 2.0 for Pocket PC, but someone told me that only version 1.0 is compatible with WM5 (and Crossbow?).

Found a solution:
Installing Adobe Reader 2.0 on SD instead of internal memory works fine!

PDF Reader1
Why don't you use Pocketxpdf, great app and best of all it's free!
Cheers...

How do I install a New Program like Adobe Reader in my Imate

Please can any one let me know how do I install Adobe Reader in my Imate. I have upgraded the Storage memory by 1GB. Thanks
When you run the Acrobat Reader installation file and ActiveSync asks if you want to install to the "default location", say no.
Then select from the pull-down list "Storage Card" and it will be installed on your 1GB card.
& when you happen come cab files, which have to be executed on your device. Then get cabinstl & you can choose where they will install the program. It's free & really does it's job.

Thanks for your replies. It worked. Much Appreciated.

Problem-It doesn't recognize files from memory.

Hi
I'm having a little problem with my mogul. I applied the option of "Encryption" on my Storage Card, which is to made all the files place on the card to be readable only by my windows-mobile device. Basically I have all my personal stuff on my storage card (pictures, pdf files, excel, etc.) Now this is the problem. I recently did a hard reset on my Mogul and after the reset. I'm not able to see/open any of the files that I have on my storage card. And everything that I have, has an extra few letters after the file's name ".3eb09476.menc" Everytime I try to open them. I get this message "There is no application associated with [the file]. Run the application first, then open this file from within the application"
Does anybody have an answer or solution?
Thanks in advance,

problem reading pdf

i have a wizard running ipl 3.08 and blackdiamond 3.1 and i've installed the official adobe pdf reader on my phone.
now whenever i try to open an ebook, the program loads and all, and gives me a notice about the viewing mode being changed to wraparound , and then it just closes. just like that, no longer running or anything, even though the software on my computer DID say that it was converting the file to a format readable on my ppc.
i've tried reading the files off the storage card, and also off the main storage with no difference, anyone know what to do about that?
no one at all?
i can't find any solution for it.

Try re-installing the adobe reader.

How to uninstall adobe reader?

Hi all.
i wanna install other pdf reader instand of slow adobe reader.
Can anyone tall me how to remove it?
Unless you added it using a CAB installer, it can't be removed. It's integrated in the write protected ROM you flashed and thus fixed on your device. But you can install another PDF reader nonetheless, it'll most likely take over PDF files and they open in the new reader.

Rooted Nook STG, issue opening files from SD card.

<SOLVED>
Hello XDA forums,
Before I rooted my Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight, I had no problem sideloading books onto the SD card and opening them from the native Nook Library app. However, after rooting (with which everything seemed to go fine), the following behaviors happen:
I can see sideloaded epub files in the Nook Library on the SD card /My Files/Books directory, but
when I try to open any of them, I get an error that says, "This Nook, cannot read this file. It maybe an unsupported format", however,
if I go through the ReLaunch file manager, it opens fine in the native Reader app, and
if I sideload the same file by usb to the Nook's main memory, it will open fine from the Library, but
if I copy/paste the file from the SD card to the main memory via the ReLaunch file manager, I get the error message.
Puzzling... any thoughts?
Thanks,
Spindle

I am not familiar with Relaunch so was unable to check that angle. I did discover, to my surprise, that neither epubs nor mobis will open in the appropriate app from ES File Explorer! Jpegs and such do, but not those e-book files. So that was weird. I never would open them that way, but it's still unexpected. The " activity picker", or whatever it's called, can be really squirrely. I don't remember where the file is located any more but I once went to investigate it and found multiple instances of file associations, none of which worked...
Does the problem persist through a reboot? Do the epubs that refuse to open from the Library file manager have the little "n" in the lower right corner?

Thanks for the response. Yeah, the problem persists through reboot and indeed those epubs that refuse to open from the Library have the little n like they should. They just do not open

Mmm... I'm sure you've tried this, but what happens if you transfer an epub via USB to the internal storage [file opens correctly in Reader from Library] and then cut/paste it to storage on the SD card? I know that's a pain and should not be needed, but I'm curious.
The only other idea I have is to try a different File Manager and see if transfers via that app give the same results (to test if this is a Relaunch issue, although I'm sure people would be going on about it if it were). I move files around all the time with my old version of ES File Explorer and never see any issues, but then I don't have issues copying to the SD card via USB either.
Mmm...maybe one other idea. I sometimes use Wi-Fi File Transfer to move epubs from my PC to the NST. It's a very simple app with a browser interface (on your PC). I've never experienced any issues with moving files that way--also saves wear and tear on the USB jack. If that gives epub transfers that are unreadable then the issue is deeper than the method of transfer.

Thanks again. I will noodle on those ideas and let you know what was the outcome.
Sooo... I never figured it out and just lived with it. However, this week (a year later), I had to update the Nook STG because there was a mandatory transport layer security update that made it unable to access the B&N store via the Nook without updating. The update wouldn't install on the rooted nook, so I returned the device to factory default then installed the update. I wasn't using any of the rooted capability anyway, other than to open books from the SD card. After successfully installing the update, the nook still would not open books from the SD card in the native nook library. Since, it appeared that the problem had nothing to do with the prior rooting, I figured it might have something to do with the SD card itself. I unmounted and reformatted the SD card via the Nook's built in utility, then reloaded my books. Viola!! The Nook recognizes and opens the books from the SD card now. It was apparently an incompatible card format or something... So, SOLVED.
