I have a role with the 'Administer content' permission that has the permission to view, edit en delete any content type.
However as soon as i enable the Content Access module user with that role can't view unpublished content anymore.

When they try to access an unpublished page it gives them an access denied message.

Same problem here. No answer in almost a year?

Can you access as normal admin?
there is also a problem with viewing the own content for user but there is a unsafe workaround:

Yes, user ID 1 can see unpublished content.

Maybe it changed in between, without the workaround the user was not able to find the content in my installation. But the user was able to see and change the content by direct path f.e
../node/18/edit
and
../node/18/

That does work oddly enough, the nodes just don't show in the content list.

If you use this view:
http://drupal.org/node/351342
and this work around
http://mbharris.co.uk/content/access-control-module-prevents-view-users-...

you will see the unpublished content

I believe this issue is a duplicate of https://drupal.org/node/1225520

Also, there is patch provided in comment 5 of that issue that I believe properly solves this problem.
