Adobe Reader Blocked in Safari

It's been a while, but ever since I upadated to Safari 7.0.1 (or maybe even the version earlier), I've been unable to open any PDF documents inside of Safari. When I click on a link on Google linked to a PDF document, a grey page shows up with the message "Adobe Reader blocked for this website" I tried clicking the message and a panel dropped down asking me whether I trust the website or not. But even after I clicked Trust and the page reloaded it self the PDF still doesn't show up.
Anyoen know how to get around this? I know Apple got rid of native support for many web applications because of security threat but there should be a way to put it back in right?
Thanks,

Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked
Allow (or Enable) plug-ins
Then click the button marked
Manage Website Settings...

  • I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

    I use Safari as my browser. When on a site and I click on a PDF file I get a black screen and a notice that "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". However, this does not happen if I use Firefox.

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to print by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar may appear under the cursor. Click the printer icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 3 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.

  • Adobe reader blocked for this site

    Since the transfer to OSX Mavericks it happens rather frequent that at opening a site page I get the message "adobe reader blocked for this site". I do not know if the installation of Adobe reader is required by Mavericks. I thought it is by default that Preview should take care of this. Or???????
    So once I installed Adobe reader and found out that Adobe is the new default. I do not want that, so I eliminated Adobe reader.
    Any suggestion on what is going on would be appreciated.

    OK, found out how to restore Preview to be the default for opening PDF files. However, Safari 7.0 still refuses to use Preview as the default to open pages  that require a PDF reader. Anyone knows how to tackle this?

  • Adobe Reader blocked on Maverick---Help!

    When I try to open PDF's from a website, it says: Adobe Reader blocked. I just switched to Maverick and adobe reader worked fine before I made the switch---anyone know how to fix this? Please let me know.
    Thank you.

    I have Adobe Reader version 11.0.04. Preview always works to show PDFs. My problem is they aren't showing up in my browser, so I can't get to download them to view them in preview. I have to look up research articles and the only way to get them first is through the browser, but AR won't let me read them. Just getting a black screen when I try to open a link for PDF's in safari. I did not get any message about it being an unsigned developer, only that Adobe reader is blocked. Any other ideas? ... I looked at the thread below and downloaded Adobe Flash viewer version 12 but that hasn't changed a thing.
    Computer blues.

    When I try to open a pdf file a message appears "Adobe Reader blocked for this website". i then click the little arrow and another window pops up and it reads: "Do you want to trus the website www.........com to use the Adobe Reader plug in? And when I click "Trust" I can then move on to my PDF Download. This was never an issue before and wonder how I can rectify this? Does it have something to do with a 'plug in'?

    What browser?  On what OS?

  • HT6065 Adobe Reader blocks PDF rendering in Safari

    Adobe Reader [plugin] blocks PDF rendering in Safari. Error Message tells user to start Adobe Reader and accept the EULA, then restart Safari. 
    MBP 15.4" Mid 2012 Retina 8GB DDR3 1600 Mhz Ram Running 10.9.1 (build 13842).  I have AR installed--not sure where the EULA is... Help is no help...
    Seems to happen with some sites that use web forms.
    Any ideas?

    Forgot to add--PDF forms from websites pull up fine in FireFox 27.0.1 and Chrome 32.0.1700.77.  So, it appears to be a Safari issue... Or perhaps an issue with a plug-in or extension...? 

  • Adobe reader blocks every pdf on safari

    Hi,
    I downloaded reader a week ago to do a homework for university. Three days later, I couldn't open any new pdf file on safari. When I click on the links, a this pop-up open:
    «We are sorry, but Adobe Reader is unable to show documents in this browser configuration.
    Please use your browser to download this file and open it in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat.
    To avoid this message in the future, many browsers provide a way to turn off certain add-ons, and some are able to show this document natively. Please contact your browser vendor for more details.»
    The anoying thing is that I even uninstalled every single Adobe programs I had on my Mac (Adobe premiere and reader) and made Preview as the default pdf program but it still writes the same pop-up! So now, I'm late with all my homeworks and can't follow during class because my computer won't open the teacher's documents. Thank you Adobe!
    I need help.

  • How to delete old Adobe reader plugin from Safari?

    Hi,
    I can no longer view pdfs within Safari.
    I deleted Adobe reader 7.0 and installed 11. Now Safari does not open embedded pdf's anymore. I suspect Safari is looking for reader 7.0. I think so, because in Safari>prefs>security>Internetplugins there is a list where both versions of reader are visible, the old version seems to be the active one.
    I probably better had not deleted Reader 7.0 by hand...
    How do I make Safari understand it should use Adobe Reader 11.0?
    Thanks,
    Wim

    Exit Safari.
    In Finder > Preferences > Sidebar, under DEVICES, check the top box which will be your assigned computer name. This will make it available to you in an open Finder window.
    Open a new Finder window, scroll the left panel down until you see the DEVICES section, and single-click on the name of your computer. The contents of the main Finder window will change and you will see a network globe, and for our focus, a silver icon of a disk drive with your boot drive name — probably Macintosh HD.
    Double-click Macintosh HD. Double-click Library. Scroll down until you see Internet Plug-Ins, and double-click that folder. Holding your shift-key down, select the following icons:
    AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    Now, with both icons selected, right-click to bring up the contextual menu and choose Copy 2 Items. Then, click once on your desktop, press and hold the option key with right-click. This time, you will see Move 2 Items Here. Select this and the plug-ins will be moved to your Desktop.
    You now have a choice of default Safari PDF viewing, or if you prefer the Adobe PDF plug-ins, reinstall Adobe Reader 11.0.04 (as of this post date) to reinstate the Acrobat PDF browser plug-ins. Once this is working, drag the Adobe plug-ins on your Desktop to the trash.

  • Adobe Reader Plugins for Safari 5 on Snow Leopard

    Our software uses Adobe Reader to open, edit, and save Pdf Forms.  Most of our customer base is on Windows but we now have some MAC users as well.  Everything works fine except using Safari 5 on Snow Leopard.  It appears as if the plug ins are not loading properly or at all when Reader 9 is installed.  When a user goes to open a PDF Form, nothing happens.
    My personal Macbook which I have at the office, is Leopard with Safari 5 and when I download Reader 9, I can see the plugins in Safari and everthing works fine.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    On Snow Leopard 10.6, you need to run Safari in 32 bit mode to get the Adobe Reader Plugin to load and launch properly.
    To do this,
    1) exit Safari. 
    2) in the Finder go to your Applications folder, select Safari and do File->Get Info
    3) Check 'Open in 32-bit mode' in the General pane of that dialog
    4) Relaunch Safari
    5) Under the Safari Help->Installed Plug-ins you should now see the Adobe Reader plugin support.
    I am able to get Safari to open forms inline in Reader this way.  I am not able to get the Adobe Forms with Adobe Javascript running in this mode.  Any insight on how this might be done would be helpful.  It does work in the Standalone Reader, but so far no luck enabling it in the Safari plugin.

  • Adobe Reader blocked for this website

    How do I solve this problem?

    Hi, I know this reply is a few months late, but just in case someone else needs the answer, as I did. Open the preferences in Safari and go to Security, click "manage website plugins", choose Adobe Reader and choose "Always allow" from the drop down menu beside "When visiting other websites". Hope this helps someone.

  • Best Adobe reader plugin for Safari or firefox .

    Hi Folks.
    I am looking for the best plugin available for safari that will give me the functionality of adobe reader when viewing pdf documents using safari.
    Am i doing something wrong but i download pdf's to the desktop, i ctrl+click on them and select 'Open With' i navigate to adobe reader and select 'always open with..'
    Shouldn't that make Adobe Reader the default app for pdf's and not preview?
    Is this functionality carried over to safari, as in what i want to do is when browsing the web with safari, click on a pdf and have it open in reader.
    Any help is appreciated.

    If you have Adobe Reader installed, then open its preferences and select the option to install the Adobe Reader for Safari (under Internet preferences.)
    To have Adobe Reader become the default reader for PDFs simply select any PDF file and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Set the default application to Adobe Reader then click on the Change All button.

  • Adobe Reader blocks Windows Photoviewer

    Hi Guys,
    we have several PDF with links to pictures on a Windows-Share.
    Everytime we click on a link to open a picture Acrobat Reader blocks the Windows Photoviewer.dll.
    When we disable the Protected Mode the Warning still pops up, but then there is a checkbox "Do not show this message again".
    Is it possible to verify our Share as a secure area so the popup will not show again?
    Sadly there is nothing about links in a PDF on the Arobat Reader Help sites.
    Thanks in advance,
    Andi
    Edit: We use the latest Acrobat Reader 11.0.4
