Adobe PDF Viewer not recognized by Mac Safari

An internet-based program (LEED Online: https://www.leedonline.com/irj/go/km/docs/documents/usgbc/leed/config/common/login/browser AdobeReq.htm) I run through Safari requires the Adobe PDF Viewer plugin to be installed. When I upgraded my Safari to 5.1.7 (which a program I used requires) the dobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 10.1.4 shows as installed, but the AdobePDFViewer.plugin is not recognized by Safari.
I have tried re-installing Adobe XI to see if the PDFViewer.plugin installs, and it does not. When I revert back to Adobe 10.1.4 the same is true--no PDFViewer Plugin. I am using MacOSX 10.6.8 which is also required.
I need the following:
Mac 10.6.8
Adobe 10.1.4 or XI
Safari 5.1.7 (not negotiable for the program that I use through Safari)
Please help, as this is work related!!
Thank you!

Windows 8 - Adobe PDF Viewer Not Available

I have two new Dell touchscreen laptops with Windows 8 (not 8.1).
I am unable to get the tile/app integrated browser to open PDF files. Upon downloading a PDF it reports "Adobe PDF Viewer Not Available".
I've gone to the app store from Microsoft, and downloaded the tile/app reader, and it reports being installed....but no joy. I've gone to the Adobe site, and looked for and installed any/all Windows 8 viewers I can find, but it still doesn't work.
I CAN view PDF files by clicking on the Windows key, clicking on the desktop, opening IE, then using the Adobe Reader 11 that was installed. This seems so pointless, because the only way to view a PDF is to take about 4 extra clicks than I do in Ubuntu, Windows 7, or a Mac.
What's up with this?

Internet Explorer has two versions on Windows 8/RT.
(a) The desktop version of IE supports plugins and accelerators. This is the version that you launch from the Windows 8/RT desktop.
(b) The Windows Store app version (with "Modern" or "Metro" UI) of IE is touch-optimized, full screen, and plugin free. This is the version that you launch by tapping/clicking the tile in the Start screen.
See the Microsoft documentation titled Get ready for plug-in free browsing.
"Starting with Windows 8, IE is one web platform that provides two browsing experiences: the new IE in the new Windows UI optimized for touch devices, and the traditional browsing experience of Internet Explorer for the desktop. As a Windows app, Internet Explorer runs without plug-ins so that you have a clean, fast, and secure web browsing experience, while also providing a native Adobe Flash player. "
Similarly, Adobe Reader also has two versions on Windows 8/RT.
(a) The desktop version is called Adobe Reader XI. It is a mature product that has been available in the market for the past 20 years and offers a rich set of features. It supports in-browser viewing of PDFs by installing the browser plugin to the desktop version of IE. However, the downsides of the desktop version are the incompatibility with the Windows RT operating system and security vulnerabilities. In general, the desktop version is less secure than the Windows Store app version.
(b) The Windows Store app version is called Adobe Reader Touch. It is a relatively new product that was introduced a year ago. It does not support in-browser viewing of PDFs because of the security restrictions that are imposed on all Windows Store apps. It is compatible with both Windows 8 and RT operating systems.
Because the Windows Store app version of IE is designed to be plugin-free, no other desktop/Windows Store apps (hence, not even Adobe Reader XI) can install additional plugins (other than the Flash support that is built-in by default).
If you want the in-browser PDF viewing support, you need to use the desktop version of IE and the desktop version of a PDF viewer like Adobe Reader XI.
This is the application architecture decision that Microsoft has made deliberately. It's not a bug or oversight.
Microsoft has the Windows Store app version of PDF viewer called "Reader". It may be possible for Microsoft to add the in-browser PDF viewing support using Reader (just like Google Chrome does) in a future release of the Windows Store app version of IE. But it did not happen in the newer version of the operating systems: Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1.
If you have any feature requests/suggestions/questions regarding the Windows Store app version of IE, please visit the Microsoft forum instead.

Adobe PDF Viewer X in Safari 5 not displaying documents protected by HTTP Authentication

I have the latest Adobe Reader X release (10.0.0) for Mac OS X 10.6 in Safari 5.0.3. The PDF Viewer is unable to display files hosted on directories protected by HTTP Authentication. The progress bar keeps spinning forever.
I've tried it on several Macs and various Apache web servers, with both Basic and Digest Authentification.
Adobe PDF Viewer running on Mac OS X 10.5 doesn't have this problem. Adobe PDF Viewer X running on Windows XP with Safari 5 doesn't either. So it is specific to the latest release for Mac OS X 10.6.
Any idea for a fix? I can't revert to a previous version of Reader since the older plug-in doesn't run in 64-bit Safari (the default on Snow Leopard) - please don't tell me to force Safari to run in 32-bit mode.
Is it at least a known bug that will be fixed soon?

You mean disabling HTTP Authentication? Yes, of course. And it works without it. That's how I know that the cause of the problem is HTTP Authentication.

Adobe PDF Viewer and Safari

I have recently installed CS3.
Now whenever I try to open a PDF on a webpage I just get a error box saying Adobe PDF viewer cant open the file.
How can I revert Safari to open PDF files in Preview again?

How can I revert Safari to open PDF files in Preview again?
You don't need to do that; Safari is perfectly capable of rendering a PDF by itself. You don't need Preview or Adobe Reader.
To do that again:
1. Quit Safari if it's running.
2. Launch Adobe Reader, go to Preferences > Internet and uncheck the box at the top of that window where it says "Display PDFs in browser using:".
3. Go to /Library/Plug Ins and delete the Adobe PDFviewer Plugin.
4. Enter the following command in Terminal, press Enter, then quit Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool false
5. Restart Safari and try dragging a PDF file from your Mac onto an open browser window.

Hi Terry, What version of Flash Player are you using? You should be able to tell by going to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ Does it happen in browsers? Could you test in Safari, Firefox and Chrome? What happens when you try to play them? Is it possible to post a screen shot? Thanks, -Dave

Adobe products are not recognized in my Internet Explorer 10 on my Win 7 64B professional

Adobe products are not recognized with my Internet Explorer. I cannot open PDF documents on websites and I cannot play MSN games since Flash Player is not found. I have tried manage add-ons and enable status without success. Can anyone supply detailed information on how to fix this problem?

Are you running IE10 in 64-bit mode? The Adobe Reader plugin is 32-bit, and can only run on a 32-bit browser.
Regarding Flash Player, do you have ActiveX Filtering enabled? Disable it.

How to make firefox open a URL in a PDF document which is loaded using Adobe PDF viewer in firefox to always in a new browser window ?

Hi
I have a web application which would enable users to see a list of PDF document on the web page and when the user select the PDF document, it will be open by a adobe PDF viewer.
Within the content of the PDF document, it will contact URL links to some other portal web pages which we would like these other web pages to be open in a new browser window, but our testing shows that the new web pages may not always open in a new browser window.
Could you help to advise how I can enforce that new web pages that are clicked from the PDF document can always be open in a new firefox browser window ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Sen Lee

Hello,
In order to change the default reader for PDF files (to not open PDF files with Firefox's internal PDF reader), follow these steps:
#Go to ''Tools'' > ''Options'' (or ''Firefox'' > ''Options'').
#In the Options window, select the ''Applications'' tab.
#In the ''Search'' field, type ''PDF''. You should find ''Portable Document Format (PDF)''.
#On the right handside you should find an ''Action'' column. Use that to select your favorite PDF reader. In order to view PDF files in Firefox, choose ''Preview in Firefox''.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

Adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

adobe pdf can not be completedly displaced by Adobe reader XI while it is inserted into a Excel2013(office 365) file

Sorry
should be “displaying”
Like when open a drawing pdf which is inserted into Excel(office 365) as an object, some lines, dimensions with remark can not be displayed and only few graph can be displayed.
But if the drawing is a separate PDF file, not inserted into Excel(office 365)as an object, the Adobe XI reader can always open it with all graphs, figures, texts, lines etc. smoothly.

PDF Viewer Not Working Some Scanned PDF Files.

I Have Firefox Latest Version. I Want To View PDF files in Firefox without downloading them. But Firefox PDF Viewer Not Working Scanned PDF. Other Browsers Can View It.
http://t.co/teYs9LOtyq
This Is A Serious Problem & Please Fix This Issue.
Thank You.

Same problem. Am using Firefox 24 (W7x64).
I've tried setting it to use the built-in PDF viewer, to always asking, to using Adobe plugin, to using Nitro plugin.
I changed the pdfjs.disabled in about:config to true but that didn't help.
The plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types was set to
user set string ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
I changed it to default, string but that didn't help either.

Adobe PDF viewer in MFC Hangs while using in Child Dialog

Hi,
I am using Adobe PDF viewer ActiveX control in one of my application made in MFC. The PDF viewer Loads PDF and Work well when i place it in a Parent Dialog. But, If i use it in Dialog that is embedded as a Child dialog to another dialog, it just hangs the entire application if i try to scroll up/down the viewer or click any print/zoom etc options that comes with Adobe PDF viewer.
Could any body help me on this, It already cost me a day to get a solution.

Thanks for the reply.
I did forget to mention that I am now trying this under Windows 2000 Professional SP4 and VB6 SP5.
Also I made a mistake in my previous post, I have Reader 7 on my pc, not 9.
Adobe Acrobat Browser Control type Library 1.0 (AcroPDF.dll) can only be added to the project as a reference,
not as a component. Project - Component does not list this. I tried selecting Project - Components - Browse.
I then browsed to folder where I placed the AcroPDF.dll (C:\WINNT\system32). It was not listed in the default list since this lists
only ocx files. I selected to show all files and the dll was then listed.
If I selected this I received a message
The file 'C:\WINNT\system32\AcroPDF.dll' was not registerable as an ActiveX component.
Adding Adobe Acrobat Browser Control type Library 1.0 as a reference did not show anything in the toolbox.
There was no red logo in the toolbox items.
I definitely selected the General list and there was no sign of any Adobe or Acrobat item
I then tried right click on toolbox, selected Components and Adobe Acrobat Browser Control type Library 1.0
was not there.

Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Pro PC with Windows 7 - error mess "Adobe PDF Printer - not available" Help?

Just loaded my old Acrobat 7.0 Professional on new PC with Windows 7 - Error message "Adobe PDF Priner not available. Therefore do not have option of Adobe printer when using Word.
Any ideas as to what - if anythjing I can do?

Hi,
Technically acrobat 7 not not designed for windows 7 OS. You can try to install the pdf printer manually but it's not guaranteed :
Click the Windows "Start" menu, select "Control Panel," choose "Hardware and Sound," click the "Add a Printer" link under Devices and Printers.
Click "Next" and select "Local Printer Attached to This Computer."
Remove the check from "Automatically Detect and Install My Plug and Play Printer" and click "Next."
Select "My Documents\\*.pdf (Adobe PDF)" in the port selection drop-down menu and click "Next."
Select the "Have Disk" option and click the "Browse" button to open a dialog box.
Select the "AdobePDF.inf" file located in the AdobePDF folder in your Program Files directory under "Adobe" | "Acrobat 9.0" | "Acrobat" | "Xtras."
Select the first item on the list of Adobe PDF Converter options and click "Next."
Type "Adobe PDF" in the field for a printer name and click "Next."
Wait for two minutes for the system to process the drivers and click "Finish" to close the Add a Printer wizard.
Hope this helps.
