Can't scroll down on PDF's or open in a reader

When I open a PDF on Safari (on iPad Air) it only ever shows the first page and there is no way of scrolling down. I have tried tapping on it etc to get the usual 'Open with' option but this never comes up. I have tried doing it directly from the link and opening in a new tab etc etc but there seems to be no way of reading the PDF on Safari or opening it in iBooks/Adobe. Can anyone help?

Hi Thanks for the response.
I thought I had, but what seemed to be happening was that the Linked PDF was
adopting the full screen property of the original PDF. I'll give it another
go and let you know.

Have you tried setting the initiall view properties of those PDFs to what
you want?  Go File>Properties>Initial View.

    Sorted out the problem myself - secret is you have to go to Full Screen view to be able to scroll down. Easy as that - but not so apparent if you are new to this.

  • I can't scroll down in the apps section,

    For some reason I can't scroll down in apps on iPad via iTunes

    this is KILLING me also..i go to my apps section in itunes in order to add pdf, comics, or pull ringtones or whatever I need to do..the area that you can add files or remove files that apps use. ITS NOT letting me scroll down to it. ONLY 1 TIME did it fix after transfering purchases and backing up..just to make sure it was on the same playing field...but the next time i reconnected, doing that didnt change anything..
    did you find an answer yet?
    i know its the same day as your issue...strange.
    ive been dealing with it for a few days and finally decided to post.

  • My cursor isn't working on Firefox so I can't scroll down - I must manually hold vertical bar to move page - I've already tried troubleshooting - helped temporarily, but still problem now - cursor otherwise works on other servers

    My cursor isn't working on Firefox, so I can't scroll down - I must manually hold the vertical bar to move page.

    I have had this nagging problem several times. Each time more frustrating than the last.
    '''PDF''''s. If you have a .pdf page open in Firefox (as often happens when looking at brochures and whatnot from websites) the mousepad side scroll function will not work. Plugging in an external usb device works just fine, making the situation that much more aggravating.
    Simply close any windows or tabs from Firefox that are displaying .pdf's, and the blood pressure "should" return to normal values. If your blood pressure doesn't return to a satisfactory value, see your family doctor. He'll probably ensure your continued trust in Firefox is still better than any experience with explor.er.

  • When I load Safari on my IPAD2, the web page comes up, but I can't scroll down the page. No matter what web page I go to the content stays darker than the navigation bar. This just started today. All other applications work fine.

    When I bring up Safari on my IPAD2, the web page comes up, but I can't scroll down the page. This just started today. No matter what web site I go to, the content is darker than the navigation pane.

    If it's happening on all sites, then assuming that it's Safari that you're using, have you tried clearing it's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (other browsers should have similar options, possibly within the actual app instead of within Settings). You could also try closing the app completely : from the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app (or whichever browser you're using) to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If it's only happening on a particular site then there may be content on that site that isn't supported on the iPad e.g. flash, java, silverlight

    See also this article about caret browsing: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Scrolling_with_arrow_keys_no_longer_works
    In Firefox 3.6 and later versions you can disable the F7 shortcut that toggles caret browsing by setting the pref accessibility.browsewithcaret_shortcut.enabled to false.
    To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

    Turn on AssistiveTouch: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > AssistiveTouch. To set Triple-click Home to turn AssistiveTouch on or off, go to Settings > General > Accessibility > Triple-click Home.
    Try the triple-click Home button. If necessary, use three fingers to scroll to turn AT off.

  • Trouble on the Mailboxes screen - can't scroll down or rearrange

    Hello,
    When I add more than two email accounts, it becomes necessary to scroll past the list of inboxes to access messages through the "Accounts" section (screenshot: http://twitpic.com/3vm0sw). However, I can't scroll down. When I try, the screen just bounces back up to where it started.
    Being able to rearrange the Mailboxes screen (removing individual inboxes or putting the "Accounts" section on top) would help, but I can't find a way to do that, either.
    I want to access my email from the "Accounts" section because it appears to be the only way to view emails that are in folders (or gmail labels).
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks very much!!
    Mindy

    When I got my first iPhone a couple years ago, being a smartphone user I thought it would be similar, but it is very different, the iPhone is a very unique device. One that I love and even though there are some "interesting roadblocks' I would not trade it in for any other phone on the market.
    I hope you enjoy your iPhone and find it as fun and enjoyable as I find mine!

  • I can't scroll down the profile page on Facebook app

    I can't scroll down the profile page on Facebook app, resetting the phone by pressing down the home and sleep buttons for 15 seconds to reset the phone didn't work, deleting and re-installing the app didn't solve it either, is there any solution to the problem? Thanks!

    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    Restart your iPhone.
    Hold down the sleep / wake button until you see the red slider then swipe to power off. Then hold down the sleep / wake button until you see the Apple logo.
    I realize you are using the FB app but try deleting cookies.
    Tap Settings / Safari.
    Clear Cookies
    Try again.

  • ITunes 10.4.1.10 how to stop downloads of free news pods?  (right click delete doesn't work) also can't scroll down list of downloads!

    (ITunes 10.4.1.10) How to stop downloads of free news pods?  (right click delete doesn't work)
    Also can't scroll down list of downloads so as to pause them.  Would like to delete them as ISP has download limit.
    Thanks in advance!  (this seems to be a dumb problem of the software having a life of its own!)

    I have been talking to Apple support about this very problem. So far they have asked me to disable both Firewall and Anti Virus software (Windows Firewall and ESAT NOD32 anti virus) - this didn't work. Rebuild my library - this didn't work. Un-install all Apple applications and re-install - this didn't work. I have created a second user account on my PC and from that account (both accounts set as Administrator) I can activate Genius. This suggests to me that the problem is possibly linked to my original User Account, which is the one I always use. I am waiting for the next update from Apple and will post an update if/when the problem is resolved.
    What I also notice is about 2 seconds in to Step 2 of the Genius activation, the progress diagonal lines bar stops, and then starts again. As soon as I see this short freeze I know that the activation will fail.

  • I can't scroll down to see older posts in facebook, any ideas?

    I can't scroll down for older postings in facebook on my I phone 4 but my husband & daughter also have this phone & their's works perfectly, any ideas?

    Have you tried turning your phone off and on again and seeing if that fixes the problem.
    If you still have the problem delete the Facebook app and loaded it back on your phone. This will delete any data associated with the app.
