How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

Anubha,
It worked! Thank you so much.
I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
program...', it worked like a charm.
Again, thank you!

  • How can I change my default PDF viewer and other things

    Hello,
    I am using Iceweasel 3.6.16 on Debian Stable (currently Squeeze) and the download Manager in Firefox (it should be the default one though I have the All-in-One Sidebar installed) always wants to open PDF files with the foxit reader. I don't know when it happened, how or why but everytime I click on a pdf file in the download manager it tries to open it with the foxit reader using wine, same thing happens with txt (he's trying to open them with notepad, using wine).
    Now when I download pdfs I don't have a problem because I use the PDF Downloader and I set it to use okular when I want to open a pdf but once it's downloaded and I want to open it using the sidebar on the left it uses the foxit reader. So my question would be where I can specifiy what program I want to certain files.
    When I go to Edit -> Preferences -> Applications and to PDF Document it says under Action "Always ask" and changing that to okular doesn't solve the problem.

  • When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • ICal in OS X Lion default on new entries is 'all day'.  How can I change that default?

    The OS X Lion default on new iCal entries is 'all day'.  How can I change that default?  It seems odd that the default would be 'all day' when most entries are for meetings lasting less than that. 

    Unfortunetely the only way is to uncheck the box each time you set up an entry. I trust enough feedback from users will convince Apple to change that in the future.

    Yours will help that effort.

  • What is the default length of time that a deleted email will be retained in the email trash before automatically deleting it? How do I change that default? I follow the instructions in the manual, but when there is no "advanced" to click on.

    What is the length of time that an email will be held in the email trash after being deleted? Also how do I change this default? I follow the instructions in the manual until it says to click on something called "advanced." There is nothing like that on the screen so I am stuck.

    Go to Settings > Mail
    Then tap on your account.
    SCROLL DOWN TO ADVANCED and tap advanced.
    Then look at Deleted Messages > Remove
    Tap on Remove and select the amount of time you want.

  • How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ?

    How can you create a writable PDF document from a PPT presentation ? Upper part with the image , lower part with a free space in order to take notes for students during presentation or course.
    Thanks.

    You can make a PDF file out of you notes and handouts but using the Adobe PDF printer.
    Open your PowerPoint Document then go to “File” “Print”
    Select ‘Adobe PDF” Printer
    Under slides, select which way you want to print. Note it will not print to a printer but to a PDF file.
    After then go into printer Properties and Setup PDF properties, do the following: (see second image below)
    Default: PDF/A 1-b
    Adobe Security: none (change as needed)
    Adobe Output folder: Prompt for Adobe file name
    Adobe Page size: Letter (change as needed)
    Check the following check boxes
    View Adobe PDf Results,
    Add Document Information,
    Rely on system fonts only,
    Delete Log files for successful jobs.
    Select OK
    A pop will ask you where you want to save the document. The file extension should be PDF. After giving the file name select okay and the file should popup as a PDF. Down side is if you want to speaker notes included then you will have to do another file, like wise with just screen shots then combine into one PDF document.
    I used Acrobat IX Pro. So to do this you need Acrobat IX or X Pro.
    Hope this will help.

  • I have a mac os x ver. 10.5.8 2x2.8 quad. my start up disk is almost full. can i change my start up disk from the original hard drive to an additional hard drive i added in Bay 4?

    Always want to keep the boot drive with more free space than may seem necessary for performance and to function at its best, 30-40% free or even 50% is not excessive.
    Ideal is to separate your system from your data.
    You should always have bootable backup / clone of your system
    Don't use a green drive for system or data though.
    When you are done cloning system and/or data, remove the old original and keep as backup.
    Then move the system drive to #1 - no matter what you want to reset the default boot volume to where the system is.

  • How can I change email received by others from me via my IMac and MacBookPro being received as APPLE?ring as just Apple

    How can I change emails received by others from me on my IMac and MacBookPro appearing on their computers as 'APPLE' and not my name?

    Thanks - I did not realize that Homesharing can be specifically set to a photo destination like that!
    So, it would appear that I can either point it to iPhoto (and folders/ events within that) OR the default Pictures folder and subfolders of that OR any other specific folder (and subfolders of that) of my choice.  However, I cannot select BOTH the default Pictures folder (and some subfolder of that) AND a folder in iPhoto AND/ OR an event/ folder in iPhoto.  Is that a correct assumption?
    If so, the only way I see getting homesharing to get both set of pictures is to get all my picture folders (internal and external drive based) into iPhoto (without physically duplicating them) - and then pointing Homesharing to iPhoto, right?
    I think you have solved my issue - but I just want to be sure of that.
    Thanks a ton!

  • HT204266 How can I remove my credit card information from the app store?

    How can I remove my credit card information from the app store?  I would like to have an account without the credit card information.
    I would like to put in my credit card only when I am ready to purchase. 

    On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.  If you are doing it on your phone then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'View Apple ID' on the popup - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
    Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
    If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?

    How can I change my computer's language from English to Spanish? My computer is an iMac G3 (CRT) and it has Mac OS 9 installed.

    This isn't possible in Mac OS 9.2.2 and earlier without doing a full installation of the Spanish version of the OS, which requires an installation disk containing it.

  • How can I change my internal airport card from G to N ???

    The description of your machine (2 ghz MacBook) can describe maybe three different generations of the original polycarbonate MacBook.
    If your machine is a Core 2 Duo MacBook that came out before the late 2007 models - $2.49 Canadian. It's all done in software, and won't work on the Core Duo models. The equivalent enabling software also comes on a disc if you get the latest 802.11n Apple AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express base stations.

    Before you buy, you can check to see if your machine already has it.

    You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.
