I keep getting this message when trying to attach a large PDF file to an Outlook email:

"An error occurred while connecting to the service. Please try again later."

 

This has been happening for weeks.....is it an Adobe Acrobat issue?  Or a Microsoft Outlook issue?

 

How do I fix it???

This has been a longstanding issue for me also, specific only to particular devices. Please suggest a fix.

Well its jan 2022 and i see no answers to these posts. I have the EXACT same problem. I'm trying to send a file, it actually spends about 10 minutes uploading it (its only about 1 |GB) showing a progress bar and everything  and as soon as its at 100%  it says: "An error occurred while connecting to the service. Please try again later." We pay a lot for creative cloud. To send us to an unresposive forum when there's a problem is cheap and frustrating.

Depending on your email server, there's a definite limit on the size of files you can email. e.g. Outlook accounts are limited to 20MB. Your 1 GB file is definitely out.

You would be better off uploading to something like DropBox and emailing the link to the file instead.

I receive this error regardless of file size, even with 5MB files.
