Can't select and print multiple files from Mac OS' Finder

I'm using Acrobat Reader on Mac OSX. I'm used to be able to select multiple files in Finder and then press Apple-P to print all of them in one batch. Reader blocks this, by opening the first of the documents and then display the Print Setup dialogue, instead of just printing the document according to the default settings.
When the dialogue is displayed, the reader is blocked from opening and printing the remaining documents, and just displays an error message that it couldn't open them. That is not a nice behaviour.

Hi Mikael,
It is not possible to open another document while printing another document through Acrobat.
You might want to create an action in Acrobat to print all the pdf's in a particular folder.

Rave

  • Open and print multiple files from the Finder all at once.

    I'm trying to research how to do this. In OS9 you used to be able to hi-lite multiple files (Word files for example) and just hit Command+P. This would automatically open all of the files AND print them.
    I can't seem to do this in my OS X. Or can I? I can hi-lite and go to File/Print, but the computer is only opening but not printing.
    Any suggestions??
    iMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    I don't know how to both "open and print" multiple files in one step. The ⌘O combination of course will open multiple items. The items remain selected so switching back to the "Finder" and dragging multiple icons onto the icon for "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "Printer Setup Utility.app" seems to cause them all to be printed to the default printer.
    Alternatively, a user's "~/Library/Printers" folder contains printer icons -- I'm not sure what they are exactly, but they represent the printers set up for that account. They function pretty much like the pre-OS X "Desktop Printer" icons so dragging and dropping multiple files onto them should cause them to be printed. It may even be possible to create aliases to them on the "Desktop" to recreate "Desktop Printer" functionality. But again, this won't open the files into their applications.

  • Can no longer print multiple files from a PDF package

    Prior to our upgrade to Acrobat Pro X, we had the ability to print multiple files within a PDF package.  We would simply select the files we wanted to print, say print and it would print them all.  It no longer does so, although it still allows us to select multiple files and to select ALL from the print menu but then it only sends the first file to the printer.
    We have tried it on both Windows XP and Windows 7 and it won't work correctly on either one.
    Does anyone have any ideas?  This is very frustrating as these packages are created by folks bundling their e-mail messages to send to the fileroom for printing and filing in the official case files.  With the old method we were able to quickly print out all the messages without attachments, and then would only have to individually print those messages that had attachments.  As stands now if we get a package with 100 messages in  it we will have to select and print each file individually instead of being able to print the 75 without attachments as one print job and then only have to do the seperate handling for the remaining 25 with attachments.
    Any and all suggestions are welcome.

    I'm using windows 7. The Acrobat that came with the Adobe Creative Suit 4 is Adobe Acrobat Pro. When I am on a web site that has a page in PDF I click on the printer icon and the print page comes up but the preview side is blank and will not print the page.

    How can I address and print an envelop from a letter created in Pages 09?

    You can copy & paste the address from the letter into a document formatted to envelope size. I prefer to use the EasyEnvelopes widget. If you have copied an address to the clipboard, it will automatically be added to the widget.

  • Can I select and drop multiple photos onto the video timeline in the order that I select them?

    can I select multiple photos and drop them onto the video time line in the order I select them in?
    Why do I loose the link to my files in the organiser?
    I have edited and saved several projects, now I want to combine them as one movie how do I do that?

    There is often confusion, as to what the Project File, PREL, is and what's in it, plus how to use it.
    The PREL, or Project File, is an XML code database, with instructions, and links to one's media files. It has no media files inside it, just links to where they were located on the system, when the user Imported the media files into the Project. For more detail, please see this article: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3392837#3392837
    When one does a Save, Save_As, or Save_As_a_Copy, it is ONLY the PREL file that is written. That article goes into detail on the various types of Save, and their uses.
    If one wishes to "save" a Project as media, they need to Export/Share/Publish that Project's Timeline to a media file. This file, will then display in Organizer, or any other cataloging utility program (with a few exceptions, but those are related to the specs. chosen in the Export/Share/Publish operation).
    I hope that sorts out the confusion and good luck,

  • Select and open multiple files in Excel 2013

    In older versions of Excel, I can open several previous files at once by clicking File==> Open and then using the "look in" ==> History option to see my recently openend files. Using the Ctrl key, I can then select three or four recent files
    and then click Open to open them all simultaneously.
    I can't find a similar option for doing this in Office 2013 and it's driving me crazy! Can anyone help?

    Hi,
    As your description, my understanding is that you want to select and open the multiple files in Excel 2013.
    Thus, I tested to use Excel 2010. Click File tab>Click Open Tab or Recent Tab. I could not find "Look in" and "History option ".
    If I want to open the the multiple files, I only conld use open tab and choose one folder to use Ctrl to choose  the multiple files.
    And if I click Recent Tab, I could open one file when I select it. I could not reproduce your steps.
    If you could upload some pictures or more steps informarion in the forum, I’ll be appreciated for you.
    Next, If you want to select and open the multiple files in Excel 2013. I recommend you select the
    Quickly Access This Number of Recent Workbooks check box on the
    Advanced tab of the Excel Options dialog box (right below the Show This Number of Recent Workbooks option) to have Excel display the four most recently opened workbooks as menu items at the bottom of the File menu in the Backstage
    view.
    It'll help you find the 4 recent files quickly.

  • How can I locate and delete torrent files from my mac

    I recently deleted a bunch of old files from macbook air from a p2p website I use (vuze.com) when I checked back on my hdd it was still full, and loaded with 'other files' which I'm pretty sure are torrents. I'm wondering how I can find these files (because I can't seem to locate them with spotlight) and trash them? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    For starters... you may already know this, but be sure to empty your trash.  You can use something like OmniDiskSweeper (free) to show where most of your space is being taken up.  It will list your folders/files in order of size.  This will generally make any folder which is excessively large show up right away:

  • TS3899 How do I select and delete multiple messages from mail?

    How can I select mutiple messages in my inbox and send them all to the trash without selecting each message and trashing it? Using the "Mark All" command does not give me that option--only the "Flag" and "Mark as Read" options.

    I know there is no delete all option within Mail app but this workaround does the trick
    1. Go to your inbox
    2. Press Edit
    3. Tap any message once to select it
    4. Press AND HOLD the Move button
    5. While still holding the Move button, tap the message you selected
    6. Release the Move button
    7. This will bring up a dialog box asking you which folder you’d like to move all your messages to – just select the Trash folder and you’re all done
