5.1.2 update does not download PDF files

After 5.1.2 update I can no longer download PDF's. Help, need to print shipping labels from USPS

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. First, disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard, mouse, monitor, and Ethernet, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account that has the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, perhaps including wireless networking on certain Macs. If you usually connect to the Internet via WiFi, and it doesn’t wohrk in safe mode, connect using an Ethernet cable. If you can’t do that, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and perform a safe login, as follows: Enter your credentials at the login screen, then hold down the shift key and click the “Log in” button. Keep holding the key until the menu bar appears. In this mode, your login items, among other things, won’t load.
In safe mode, test again. Same problem(s) now?
After testing, reboot (if you booted in safe mode) or log out/log in (if you performed a safe login) as usual.

Firefox does not download pdf files properly

On my progressive website, when I try to view pdf documents, I click the document, nothing happens, but the file is downloaded into downloads. However, the file is downloaded as (example) test.pdf.part?
This website works flawlessly using the fault android web browser, and I can see in the notifications that the file is being downloaded. Subsequently clicking it and opening the file in Adobe.
Firefox had updated at least 4 times since I reported this issue Terry is still broken
Please don't all for the link to the problem because you can't get there without logging into my account with progressive. The site works, it is Firefox that's still broken.

Hello.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
And yes, that applies to Adobe Reader plugin too. This isn't a bug with Firefox.

Aria2 does not download multiple files at a time

I'm trying to speed up my system upgrades by using aria2, but it won't speed up anything as it does not download multiple files at a time.
As per this wiki post, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Im … erformance , "using aria2", I've installed aria2 and added the line
XferCommand = /usr/bin/aria2c --allow-overwrite=true -c --file-allocation=none --log-level=error \
-m2 --max-connection-per-server=2 --max-file-not-found=5 --min-split-size=5M --no-conf \
--remote-time=true --summary-interval=60 -t5 -d / -o %o %u
to the options section in pacman.conf. Pacman still works, but it isn't sped up. When pacman -Syu'ing, a normal line shows:
#1 SIZE:1.3MiB/2.0MiB(63%) CN:1 SPD:50.0KiBs ETA:15s
What's going on?
P.S. I use the line reflector -l 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist before doing a system upgrade.

Using aria2c will download files over 5MB with multiple connections but will not download multiple files at the same time. Pacman calls aria2c with the first url, waits for it to finish, then calls aria2c with the second etc...
If you want to download multiple packages simultaneously, see http://xyne.archlinux.ca/projects/pacman2aria2/

Safari does not display PDF files?

My Safari browser does not display pdf files. Whenever a site I'm reading links to a pdf file, a new page open in black but without content.

Try this ...
Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go.
If you see the: AdobePDFViewer plugin in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

Apercu does not open pdf files

apercu does not open pdf files and crashes

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report — they're very long and not helpful.

Safari does not open PDF files

For some reason, Safari decided to download PDF files instead of opening them. I have trashed my safari.plist file and still nothing. I have uninstalled Acrobat Reader and trashed all the files associated with it, including the PDFviewer plug-in. How do I fix this?

I had similar problems and the problem was solved as a side effect of my solving a scanner printer problem. I have an HP all in one (8500) and never could get the scanner to work properly. I called HP and they walked me through uninstalling and then going file by file through different folders to delete stray files that didn't uninstall with the uninstaller.
I then installed the new drivers and all my HP printer functions worked. Next time I opened a PDF with Safari it opened within the application and worked perfectly. Everyone is talking about an adobe conflict (which I also experienced earlier) but if getting rid of adobe plug-ins doesn't work maybe its printer related ... worked for me.

Clicking on PDF files on the internet does not download with file extension

When I click on a PDF link it downloads the file but does not save it as a ".pdf" file extension. When using the "save as" function in mozilla the ".pdf" file extension is included.

Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu.

Updated Adobe Reader to 11.x, now it does not recognize pdf files

Ok. I don't know how to explain this so I'll do my best. Please let me know if you need more information.
I updated my Adobe Reader to X and noticed that all of the sudden any files that were sent to me via e-mail would not open up. I use Outlook Express to access my gmail account because we have multiple accounts that we use and I haven't figured out how to do that with Outlook! Anyway, this is always the response I would get. It would ask me if I want to open this file. It would give the name.pdf and the type is AcroExch.Document. If I click open, I get the following warning: This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel.
Now if I go to save the file and I just saved it to my desktop, I can open it that way. I don't really want to always have to save files to my desktop or whatever just to open then and see what they are about. I do know that earlier I was having the same issue on my desktop- that it wouldn't recognize the pdf file, but I figured out how to make that association. So I'm wondering how to do this on e-mail.
I have the latest version of Adobe Reader, which I guess now is 11. What else should I do?
Thanks in advance!
Jennifer

Ok sorry I've taken so long to respond. The reply button wouldn't pop up for me to reply!
There was never a dialog box asking for me to select the program from installed programs when I open the pdf from outlook express. But when I opened a pdf from my desktop it asked that question and I had it "always use this program to open this type of file." So I assumed that it was would work when opening from outlook express. But it doesn't.
I've tried unclicking the protected mode button under the preferences general section. And finally I'm not sure how to post screenshots of the attachment thumbnail and dialog. I'm looking all over my keyboard for a button to push I don't have a clue as to what to do! I do have a print Scr button but when I click on it nothing happens. I've tried holding down the shift key and the button and the alt key and print scr button but nothing happens.
Could it be that somehow it's not recognizing ARCO.EXCH.DOCUMENT as that's what it thinks the type of document is?
I've already created an association for pdf files and it'll open them on my desktop, just not in outlook express.

Reader XI does not diplay PDF-file

I am unable to view this PDF with Adobe Reader: http://velorooms.com/files/teamgen.pdf
It only shows white page page when opened. The result is same with both viewing it on Reader program and on browser.
All other PDF files work well with Reader. I also know that the file is not corrupt because it opens correctly on other PDF readers.
If I select everyting on that PDF file I can see that the graphs are still there, they are just invisible: http://i.gyazo.com/c74f78c81a58ac62a9b0b1a684089799.png
(Compare to working display using Foxit Reader: http://i.gyazo.com/12901f4688bc252316baf03cf6e86572.png)
Unsual thing about the file is that it does not have tradional page size like A4 or A3 but is one very larger page.
I have installed the latest updates. My OS is Windows 7.
Is there some setting I could change to fix this?

The fact that it displays in other PDF viewers does not mean that there is not a problem with the file. The source of the problem is the page size exceeds the maximum allowed by the specification, which is 200 inches (height or width). The page is 208.33 inches tall. So Adobe has chosen to not display pages that are not valid.

Clicking a .pdf link does not open .pdf file, it opens a SAVE DIALOG box

Recently when I click on a .pdf file link I am no longer able to open the file in a adobe reader either within a FIREFOX webpage or open it using the full adobe program. Instead it opens a SAVE dialog box requesting me to save to my harddrive. I am not sure what has happened and am trying to find someone who might know what is going on?

You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu.

Urgent: Adobe Reader does not attach pdf-files to standard e-mail software any more!

Hello,
Situation:
Windows XP Pro; SP3
Office 97
Thunderbird
Adobe Acrobat Reader
When I want to attach a pdf-file directly from Adobe Reader to a new Thunderbird e-mail it starts ALL OF A SUDDEN the setup-assistant for Microsoft Exchange / Outlook! Why? I have no clue (:
It worked fine until 3 days ago.
Thunderbird is the standard e-mail software and it works for example fine if I click on an address in the internet. Thunderbird opens a new mail.
I tried to uninstall Adobe Reader and installed it again (restart computer / ccleaner) but this failure still occurs!
Does anybody know what to do please? It is really urgent because I need that function all the time... (:
By the way: I do not work with Outlook; it is not configured.
Thank you very much!

> ALL OF A SUDDEN...
What happened between when it worked correctly 3 days ago, and the time it stopped working as expected?
Check Control Panel | Internet Options | tab Programs; to what is the E-mail option set?
If it is already correctly showing Thunderbird, then try a System Restore to a date when it still worked correctly.

Hyperlink does not open pdf file

I am using reader 9.3 in windows 7 on a new netbook. After installing reader, my documents open just fine
except when I try and use a hyperlink in a word document to open a pdf, I keep getting a NO PROGRAM IS REGISTERED message. I have tried the open with selection and made sure the ALL FILES OF THIS TYPE is linked or checked, and the same thing continues to happen. I have done the repair and reinstall. Still does not work with a hyperlink.
What is going on?

Sounds like a "file association" problem, have you tried different browsers? Also, when you installed the application were there any checkboxes for like firefox (or other browsers) integration? What browser do you use now? Tr reinstalling your internet browser and it will probably work for you.
Best regards

6.0.2 version of Safari does not show pdf files

When I click on a link to see a pdf file a darkened blank window opens but the pdf file never appears. Is there a specific setting that needs to be set? I did not have this problem before I upgraded to version 6.0.2.

I downloaded pdf-plugin-244.dmg from http://www.schubert-it.com/pluginpdf/.

5.1.2 update does not download PDF files
