Some PDFs posted on websites are not opening, not downloading.

I am using Adobe Acrobat Reader XI, on an I-Mac running Mac OS 10.9.3. My browser is almost always Safari 7.0.4
When browsing recently, I have tried to download PDFs from known, safe, often used sites. Some of the PDFs have tried to open/load ... but all I get are a grey box/window ... and the PDF is not in my downloads folder.
Other PDFs are opened & saved perfectly.
[PS I still have several older versions of reader still on my hard-drive (7, 8 Pro, and 9) but 11 is actually on my Dock.]

Hmmm, what sites in particular?
Open Console in Utilities & see if there are any clues or repeating messages when this happens.

  • Some pages of my website are not active from the home page

    Built my website with iweb.  When I go to the site the tabs to all the pages show, but several of them are not active from the home page.  If I go to one of the active pages I can then click on the other pages.  Is there a way to fix this?  I've tried reloading the entire site, but several of the tabs remain inactive from the home page.  Any help would be greatly appreciate - Thanks,  Jodi

    Thanks Roddy - I tried moving it down and it didn't work - That line is in the Template I used to build the site and is on every page.  I did finally get the command A to work, but there's nothing covering those bottom three tabs.
    However, when I put my mouse in the area of the box where it has my name (the image you sent me above) it shows a link desktop/site/booker_files and I noticed I have one of the rss feed blue arrows, but I can't seem to delete it.  I wonder if that has something to do with it.  It does the same thing on the website if you hover with your mouse. 
    Truly appreciate your help.

  • PDF's from websites will not download. I get a grey screen.

    How can I get my Macbook Pro to download PDFS from a website?
    It seems to think about it but once complete I get a grey screen.
    It worked in the past.
    I have adobe .
    I have re-downloaded it.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then launch Safari and test.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

    Did you create a new profile for that 4.0 beta version?
    Do you still have the regular Firefox 3.6.8 version installed?
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

  • Internet Problems: Websites are not loaded

    Hi everyone,
    since the Mavericks-Update I got some problems with my Internet-Connection:
    1. Often the websites are not loaded. There comes no error-page or something else, its just a white page and I can see the Browser is loading but nothing happens. After refreshing the page, the page often loads correctly.
    2. Connection to messengers in the browser get lost. I open Facebook or Google  and often the connection to the chatsystem gets lost after a few seconds/minutes.
    The problem comes up with any Internet-Conection(WiFi and Ethernet) and on every browser (Safari, Chrome, Firefox) in every network.
    ping of google.com -> lost no packages! -> Internetconnection is stabile.
    Other Notebooks are running without problems in the same network. Who can help?

    Hello,
    I think I solved the problem:
    Try this:
    1. SystemProperties-> iCloud-> disable documents
    2. Open Finder -> "Gehe zu" (go to) -> press alt -> Library -> Search Cache -> Take the Cache and drop to Desktop.
    3. Restart your Mac -> During the start press cmd+alt+p+r and hold it down. Now the startsound appears 3 times. After three times you can stop pressing the keys. -> Mac starts -> Problem should be solved.
    If you are shure the problem is solved, you can delete the Cache frome the Desktop.

  • Recently, my passwords on many websites are not being saved, forcing me to log in every 15 minutes or so.  Is anyone else experiencing this?  I am wondering if it is a result of a "bad" update?

    For the past few weeks, I have noticed that passwords on many different websites are not being saved.  I literally have to log back into each page every 15 minutes or so.  Is this the result of a bad software update?  Have an appointment at the Genius Bar tomorrow but if this can be resolved without going in, it would be preferred. 

    For what it's worth, you posted this in 2011, and here in 2014 I am still having this same issue. Over the last two days, I have had to unlock my apple account 8 times. I didn't get any new devices. I haven't initiated a password reset. I didn't forget my password. I set up two factor authentication and have been able to do the unlocking with the key and using a code sent to one of my devices. 
    That all works.
    It's this having to unlock my account every time I go to use any of my devices. And I have many: iMac, iPad, iPad2, iPad mini, iPhone 5s, iPod touch (daughter), and my old iPhone 4 being used as an ipod touch now.  They are all synced, and all was working just fine.
    I have initiated an incident with Apple (again) but I know they are just going to suggest I change my Apple ID. It's a simple one, and one that I am sure others think is theirs. I don't want to change it. I shouldn't have to. Apple should be able to tell me who is trying to use it, or at least from where.
    Thanks for listening,
    Melissa

  • Certain (banking) websites are not allowing me to log in, other banking websites aren't saving password etc info. IE lets me log in.

    since I upgraded to the latest version of FF about a week ago, some of my banking websites are giving errors when I try to log in. I can log into them fine using IE. Also the one banking website that does allow me to log in with FF, is challenging me with my security question each time -- even when I tell it to register my computer. Before the upgrade it did not do this.

  • Postings for account type M ( posting key 99 ) are not defined

    Hi,
    I am trying to post vendor credit memo KG through FB01 using posting key 21 - Debit Vendor and posting key 99 - Credit Material.
    I am getting the error "Postings for account type M ( posting key 99 ) are not defined Message F5204".
    The posting key 99 is set for account type material. Is there anything else that need to be configured?

    Thanks

  • Some of my contact names are not appearing when they text message me.  They are just showing up as their numbers. I have them saved in my phone so i am not really sure why their names aren't showing up when they message me?

    I have this identical problem.  For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad.  Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something.  Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads.  I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time)  Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc.  There still hasn't been a solution.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Is there really nobody else with this problem? Really?

  • Images on websites are not clearly displayed

    Dear All,
    The last month or so i have noticed that images on websites are not as clear as they used to be. Seem to be fuzzy. This is not a great help when im buying cosmetics or clothes as the images are not clear enough to see what im purchasing. Its not just one website its all.
    Ive not changed anything on my laptop that i know of, its all running as when i purchased it.
    Does anyone have any suggestions for me to try?
    Lesley

    Hi
    Its not a notebook malfunction. There is all ok with the hardware. I assume you have changed something in the IE settings or the images on the websites are really blurred.
    You can try to check the settings in the IE option View. Check if the text size is set to medium and the encoding to Unicode (UTF8)
    What you can do also to reinstall the IE.
