Unable to open sheets
on: February 29, 2016, 10:31:05 PM
I'm a silver member so get some access to sheet music, however whener I try to download one to my tablet, Adobe opens then I get a message saying it can't be opened as its not a genuine PDF document! Seems weird considering the icon next to the item is the Adobe reader logo!
I would like some easy classical pieces to practice reading with.

Make sure your download file was not corrupted.  Download it again.

Tried it several times, with various pieces. They don't download at all, just the same message.

What happens when you use a different program to read the pdf?
