Android can't download/view pdf from vibe 3.2

I think this a a headers issue in vibe?
But on Android (2.1, 2.2, .23, 4.0) phone and tablets we can not select a pdf from a vibe folder and download it or view it.
We can from an iphone/tablet
We have tried chrome, dolphin HD as well as the standard Android browser.
A sample Word 2k7 doc can either be "view'ed by selecting view or downloaded by selecting the file from Android.
Can anyone else confirm please
Thanks

Just tried it here against Vibe 3.2. Indeed the problem seems to lie with the simple interface Vibe offers to mobile devices. Have not tried what happens on an iPad but would suspect the same behavior - curious it seems to work there as you report?
The Android app also has this issue as it uses the simple interface.
Two workarounds:
-download and open the PDF by clicking on the attachment links found further down on the page where you are trying to open the pdf
-use desktop mode on the browsers (selectable at least in Opera and Dolphin)
I'll drop this in as bug if there is not already one opened against it.
Cheers,
Willem

Three questions: (1) hard to get firefox to close; (2) can't download linked PDFs from journal websites, as I can with safari; (3) how do I migrate my complete firefox setup from old mac computer to new mac.

I am running firefox on a 4-year-old macbook. When I want to close the firefox application, for example when I am shutting down the computer, it hangs, will not quit. Sometimes I get a prompt about continuing a script and after I click on that, then it closes. Often, however, I have to do a force quit ("firefox not responding").
I am going to be setting up soon on a new macbook.
My firefox has been elaborated with several add-ons, including read it later and a couple of feed add-ons. I have an elaborate bookmark and tab group setup. Will it be possible to migrate all of that to the new computer.
Will my having a fresh new computer resolve the problem with getting the application to close? Or should I be concerned about importing the problem along with the application?
The other question concerns downloading of PDF files that are linked at medical journal websites, where I have permission for download of articles. I can do this in safari. But the process is not working in firefox. The blank window comes up like I am going to get a download prompt, but then that does not happen.

I did that :
Open Terminal
1 - wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/remi-release-8.rpm
2 - sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-8.rpm
3 - sudo mousepad /etc/yum.repos.d/remi.repo
Make sur that in remi section enabled value = 1 and in test section enabled value= 0
4 - sudo rpm -e --nodeps firefox
5 - sudo yum install firefox
It was successful for me after many hours to look for the right answer

Can't Download a PDF from Safari

I can't down load a PDf file from Safari on my home computer. I have figured out that If I change the location that the file is being saved to, and hold down the control key while clicking the link, and choose save PDF, I can do it, but why can't I just click the link and have it save to my desktop. I can also open internet explorer and simply click the link and it saves to the desktop.
These 2 options are to complicated for my husband who is not as familiar with computers in general, and he wants to know what I did to make it not work!
I thought it had something to do with the permissions, because for some reason they are all grayed out, but the permissions are grayed out on my computer at work too and I can save a file to the desktop there.
Any ideas?

nibashki,
Are you logged in with an Admin account?
Navigate to HD > Users > Your Home Folder > Library > Preferences.
In that folder, click on com.apple.desktop.plist, to highlight.
Depress the Command and i (eye, not el) keys, to Get Info.
Click on the disclosure triangle for Ownership & Permissions.
Does is say: You can Read & Write?
Click on the disclosure triangle for Details.
Is the Owner your account, with Access: Read & Write?
Is the Padlock open or closed?

I can't download a pdf from a link in a swf in Firefox. I can in Safari.

I created a swf with a link to a pdf. This link works perfectly in Safari and the pdf opens in a new window. I am using Firefox 5.o which I recently updated. I think this link also worked on the previous version of Firefox.

Can't veiw a pdf from a website.

I'm trying to view a pdf from a website. When I click on the link, it opens a new browser window but it doesn't display the pdf, it is a blank window instead. The help area on this site said to go to your preferences and make sure "Do not save encrypted pages to disk" is unchecked. I can not find this in the prefs.

After downloading a pdf from a website, how can I view the file in Safari 6.0.4 (just as I can in Safari 5.0.6)? I bet that it's simple, but I've missed something, somewhere, and a solution will be greatly appreciated.

Hello Kirk,
Thank's for your efforts, and I just wish that this was the solution. Unfortunately, it isn't because, after double-clicking on the pdf in the website, it simply "opens" in another Safari window as a black screen - the pdf is there, somewhere, but not visible (either as an icon, or as a document).
When I right-click in the black Safari window, where the file is supposed to be, the only option available to display the file is to "Open file in Internet Explorer" (which is not what I want to do). Other options include saving or printing the pdf, which I don't want until I've confirmed that it's the form that I want. The same options are offered if I right-click on the file icon in the website.
Any other suggestions, please?

I want to uninstall Acrobat reader. I got support in the community to access my HD and to send to trash the internet plugs in for PDF viewer, but when I try to download a PDF from internet a black screen appears and preview doesn't open

Back up all data.
Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (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, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
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.

Can't download/view "some" pdf files.

I once had Adobe Reader which caused some problems. I moved it to trash. I also trashed the Adobe Reader Internet Plug-in in the Library. I still can't open some pdf files (e.g., bank monthly statements). A window opens showing the statement (which should be pdf), but when I try to save: File>Save, I get a window that opens that includes: "Export As: Statement.html" and "Format: Page Source." The Format selection feature opens a pulldown menu that allows "Web Archeive" as the only other choice.
My Library Plug-ins still show :
Is there anything else here that I need to delete? How is it that I can still download some pdf files, view them, and save them? This problem is happening on the monthly statements for a couple of financial institutions and not others!

This is so strange. I had also posted the same issues to my financial institutions and one of them just responded:
". . . this issue began with an update for Preview from Apple. We have discovered a work-around. If you Ctrl-click on the statement you would like to open (ex. January 2012), and choose "Open Link in New Window", it should open the way you are used to."
This worked! After Ctrl-clicking the window, it opens another window that now allows saving or printing the file as pdf! I can't believe Apple is leaving these issues hanging there.

How can I download a .pdf document from a web link without Adobe Reader starting automatically and preempting the download?

That depends on your operating system and browser. On Windows, e.g. using Firefox, you right-click on the link, then select 'Save link as...'.

Why can't I download a PDF from a web site with Safari?

I clicked on an image whcih is suppoed to open a PDF. Nothing happens.

Hey Carolyn,
I do have this app on my iphone and it works great. My issue in when I try to download a PDF from a page in Safari. Chrome does it without any problems. I'm just trying to use Safari more as it is apparently "faster" and "uses less power". Thisis based on the latest information I viewed from the WWDC.

Since my update, when I try to view videos(rather I already owned or just rented from iTunes) the movie starts playing then I get a pop up can't download view. I've reset my settings, still not working.

You said:
We still couldn't get it to stop timing out. I tried to download the firmware from iClarified but iTunes said it didn't recognise the software.
Just what did yo do to gt iTunes to see the download:

Can no longer view pdf files in Safari

Adobe viewer installed. Was working okay. Upon first "download" of pdf file, had pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application. Then pdf files were opened in Safari with Adobe Reader controls across the top of the Safari window.
For no apparent reason, can no longer view pdf in Safari. The URL for the pdf file appears in the Safari URL, but the Safari window is blank. No pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application during first "download" of pdf file. Safari Help --> Installed Plug-ins shows Adobe Reader for pdf. Can download pdf file by highlighting URL and then pressing Option-Return.
Only change the previous day was update of Mac software which included a security upgrade and other software upgrades.

Hi..
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the AdobePDF browser plugin to the Trash.
Try Safari.
If you have problems locating the plugin...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go

Hello ashlyn888,
Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:
