Adobe does NOT automatically open when attachments are 'clicked'

Thanks for reading this post.  When openning a PDF file attachment within an email or a link from a website, Adobe does not automatically launch to view the documents.  In fact, the file conversion screen pops up instead when I select the 'open' tab from the attachment.  When I click the 'save' option, the save file type only includes HTLM and ALL Files..... this is odd why PDF is not a save type option.   Anyway, any assistance to alievate this problem will be helpful. This is very frustration.... I was also wondering if this could be my Norton 360 that is causing these problems....

Bill was suggesting an alternative approach, making this the default setting in distiller. This is a preference settings in Distiller. I don't have Acrobat 9 on my Windows machine, but this is what is looks like on the Mac:

  • PDF does not automatically open when the PDF is generated

    Here are my conditions:
    Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
    Abobe Acrobat9 Pro version 9.4.2
    "View Adobe PDF results" is checked under Adobe PDF Printing Preferences/Adobe PDF Settings
    Here is the problem I am facing:
    When I print a simple text file under Notepad to Adobe PDF (listed under Devices and Printers), a PDF file is generated but it does not open the newly generated file as it ought to.
    If you have any suggestions, I would appreciate them. I already went through the Repair Acrobat Installation routine. It didn't help.
    Thank you.

  • When I click on a picture, Photoshop Elements 12 does not automatically open.

    When I click on a picture, Photoshop Elements 12 does not automatically open (as it did when I used previous versions Photoshop Elements 4 and 9).  I can't even right-click (Windows) on the picture and choose Open With and specifiy Photoshop Elements 12.  I have called Adobe several times (Case No. 185140584) and they keep saying it has been sent up to senior management and they will call me back with a solution - but to no avail!  No return calls and I still can't really use the Product I paid for and downloaded.  The only way I can open up a picture to edit it is to open Photoshop Elements 12 and then then click "Open" and then search for the picture on my hard drive (which takes a lot more time!  I did not experience this difficulty at all with versions 4 or 9!

    Hi,
    You failed to say which Windows system you have - I can get the "Open With" to work on my Windows 7 64bit system.
    When you try to set up the "Open With", are you setting the correct target program?
    It's the green one (not the red one) in the above image.
    Once you have selected that program, make sure you set it as default so that a double click will open the photo in the editor.
    Good luck

    google removed from bookmarks and when selecting safari it does not automatically open to bookmarks as previously did

    When Safari launches, tap in the address field (the one on the left) and type "www.google.com" then hit the "Go" button.
    After the page finishes loading, hit the "Action" button (the middle button on the bottom button bar that looks like an arrow coming out of a rectangle) and select "Add to Bookmarks" to add the Google page to your bookmarks.
    After that, you can hit the Bookmarks button (the button that looks like an open book in the bottom button bar) to access the Google bookmark you just created.

  • Slave does not automatically authenticate when master is down

    We are running MFA in a dual server master-slave configuration. When the master MFA server is down the slave does not automatically take over. You have to open the GUI and promote the slave server to master to get it working again. I expected the slave to
    authenticate without administrator intervention. Is this by design? We are running latest version 6.3.1.1. 
    In this thread
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/86efa99d-361c-4f83-bfba-fd75b4505590/azure-mfa-server-replication-and-failover?forum=windowsazureactiveauthentication
    someone mentions the same problem. The reply goes as follows:
    "Regardless of the UI, if an authentication request is sent to the slave, it will process it"
    If the master server is offline, it does not.
    it is also mentioned that
    "One option for HA is to point at one MFA Server as a primary authentication target and another as
    a backup authentication target"
    Where? I cannot find this option anywhere in the MFA interface. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Sadiqh,
    thanks for your reply! I had already dug through the link you gave me. For your information: we are using MFA to secure a sharepoint site via IIS. I understand about the 'no updates without the master' thing but in the link it is also said:
    "A slave can process authentication whether the master is up or not"
    It can, but you have to promote it to master manually. It does not process authentication requests from remote users on its own.
    "The slave will only do work when the master is offline"
    What work? It appears to not include authentication request from remote users. At least, not automatically. You have to promote it to master first.
    Finally, it is being said:
    "The on-premises Azure MFA Servers don’t do any kind of failover on its own"
    So, if I am understanding this right you WILL HAVE to promote the slave server to master manually when the master is offline. I am wondering if I can use the MFA API to write a custom script which checks if the master server is offline or not and promote
    to master if needed. If so, I would expect this functionality to be already there with MFA itself. What's the purpose of an MFA cluster if it requires manual user intervention for failover?
    Edit: I am now looking into the powershell module obtainable at http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/ but
    none of the commandlets seem to support managing the multi factor auth providers via powershell.
    Also, the Azure AD module obtainable at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/jj151815.aspx seems to be focused at user administration and no support
    for Multi-Factor Auth providers.
    Also, the command line tool obtainable athttp://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/xplat-cli/ also does not seem to have support for managing multi factor auth providers.
    Any ideas/suggestions?

  • QuickTime does not automatically open video clips when double clicked

    Quicktime does not open video clips in iPhoto when the video clips are double clicked (nothing happens). Quicktime will open the video clip if I open quicktime
    and ask it to open the video clip. Regular photos will expand as they should when they are double clicked.

    It worked. I don't see why the Protected Mode is enabled in the first place, if it were to cause issues.
    Anyways, thanks Sabian,

  • Texting field does not automatically open upon tapping in iOS6?

    Hey there,
    I've noticed since I upgraded to iOS6 that the field at the bottom of my text message screen, which allows you to input the text message reply, doesn't open when you tap it. Instead, to open it up, I have to swipe from the bottom up.
    Is this intentional, or is this something only applicable to my version of the operating system? It's extremely annoying, as when I'm at work it became a natural response to just tap the field and begin replying.
    Thanks and regards.

    Hi falkpl,
    thanks for your work around.
    I do not use a mouse click solution because I can not distinguish between a mouse click and a touch on the screen. And I prefer to not launch any on screen keyboard on a mouse click. Especially because the on screen keyboard opens anywhere on the screen and can hide the control. This is especially nasty when there is a physical keyboard (which is probably is connected when a mouse is there).
    I could combine the ideas. Clicking in a control could open a VI nearby, which only shows a small keyboard icon. Clicking this icon would start an on screen keyboard (osk.exe, tabtip.exe, a keyboard written in LabVIEW).
    But this is reprogramming the existing behaviour of windows, not really funny.
    Placing the "Keyboard Icon Button" VI nicely would take some time, but should work because all is in LabVIEW. (It would also open when using the mouse, but only a small icon should be ok.) For not hiding the active control by the on screen keyboard, the task gets hard. (Positioning the TabTip.exe window is not easy, and creating [or adapting] an on screen keyboard in pure LabVIEW brings some other problems.)
    Should we vote for Touchpanel-Control-Suite-with-Native-LabVIEW-On-screen-Keyboard or is it different from our needs? (I'd prefer to have the functionality in all control styles, not only in a special "Touch Control" set. But maybe I misunderstand the idea.)

  • The option to Set Breakpoints does not show up when I right-click any step

    Hi All,
    I am working with a SSIS package and trying to set breakpoints to view the contents of package scoped variables. I am running SQL Server 2008 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and developing in Visual Studio 2008.
    When I right-click on an Execute SQL Task (or ANY step in the package) I see no menu pick to "Edit Breakpoints" or "Set Breakpoint". Can someone tell me why that option is missing?
    TIA

    Arthur,
    Thank you so much.
    Your answer might seem obvious to most everyone but me. The SSIS package was part of a larger ASP.NET Web Site project. As a result whenever I opened the Web Site Project the package showed up in the Solution Explorer and of course I just opened it. Nowhere
    have I read that if the package is opened in that manner so many development features would be missing.
    How foolish of me to also assume that if I started "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" and simply opened a package...that those critical features would not appear. Live and learn. LOL
    Have a great day!

  • AirPort does not automatically connect when IP settings assigned manually

    Hello,
    Since I manually set up the TCP/IP settings in System Preferences > Network > AirPort, I have found that upon waking my iBook, it no longer connects to our AirPort network automatically. Instead I have to go to the AirPort menu and select our home network manually. As you can imagine, this is somewhat annoying.
    I imagine it's designed this way as when you enter another wireless network you aren't going to want to use those same manual TCP/IP settings.
    Is anyone aware of a workaround for this?
    I'm not using DHCP as I want the iBook to retain the use of the '10.0.1.200' IP address, which the AirPort Extreme points port 80 traffic towards. 'DHCP with a manual address' seems like the way to go. However, with this setting my iBook is unable to determine the subnet mask or router address (why this happens is beyond me, since surely the iBook gets this information via DHCP?).
    Any ideas? Am I missing something really obvious?
    Jon.

    Huh?
    I have I think. "Configure via IPv4:" is set to "Manually". I have then manually set my IP address to "10.0.1.200", the subnet mask to "255.255.255.0", the router to "10.0.1.1" and the DNS servers to my ISP's DNS servers. I have no problems with the Internet connection. I don't think the problem lies here, if that's what you are talking about.
    The problem I have is that, when my iBook wakes (or is logged in) it doesn't automatically connect to our wireless network. Instead I have to manually select it from the AirPort menu, which is annoying. If I use the "Configure IPv4: Using DHCP" option it all works fine, apart from the fact that I can't use the IP address I want to use.
    It seems to me that if you configure manually AirPort won't auto-connect upon wake, for fear of connecting to a different wireless network using your manual TCP/IP settings.

  • JDeveloper 10.1.3 - Browser does not automatically open

    i just recently migrated from jdeveloper 10.1.2 to jdeveloper 10.1.3. When i try to run my jsp files it compiles succesfully but no browser opens. In 10.1.2, the browser opens automatically. Is there something that I'm missing? Do I need to modify a config file or something?
    please help.

    I actually got it to work finally. The OC4J instance was not starting. I cut and pasted my migrated application out of JDeveloper and into a new instance of JDeveloper. I think added the application to the new JDeveloper instance and it was able to load fine. Thank you everyone.

  • In iPhoto8 inserting a Card reader does not automatically open iPhoto

    In preferences it shows Connecting Camera: Opens iPhoto. Is there something else I should be doing. In previous versions it opened as soon as I inserted the card reader.

    Sorry, I edited my post after thinking about it. I never connect my camera - I prefer to use a card reader and previously when I inserted the card reader into the slot on my laptop it would immediately start downloading the photos into iphoto - showing dups etc. Now, in iPhoto 8 I have to drag the disc (that appears when I insert the reader) from the desktop to iPhoto and then it starts the import.

  • Safari does not automatically open pdf files.

    After updating Acrobat to 7.0.5, Safar no longer auromattically opens pdf files, when I click to open a pdf on the web. Every time it asks me which application do I want to use. When I select 7.0.5 it works fine. When I open a pdf from a the finder it opens the proper version and Get Info shows the proper association.
    I cannot find how to fix the association in Safari.
    Thanks for you suggestions.

    Hi, Jim. Welcome to the Discussions.
    1. Quit Safari if it is open.
    2. In Acrobat, select Help > Detect and Repair.
    3. Select or deselect the options in the resulting window, as desired, assuring that<pre>__ Adobe PDF Viewer
    View and edit Adobe PDF within Safari</pre>is selected.
    4. Click Continue.
    5. Type your Admin Password when prompted, click OK.
    6. You should get a message indicating that "missing components were repaired."
    7. Launch Safari and open a PDF on the Web to see if it's fixed.
    FYI: Questions regarding Safari should be posted to the Safari Discussion.
