Can't download or print pdf files

All of a sudden I can't download or print pdf files from Safari.  When I try to download the file it says it can't export and then gives file name. I tried changing the file name with the same result.  When I try to print, I just get a single blank page.  I have reinstalled Safari.  I thought it might be a problem with Adobe reader, but that works outside of Safari  I did just install reader 10.1.3 and that is when I noticed the problem, but I reinstalled 10.1.1 and still have the same problem.  Please help!!
Thanks
Scott

Thank You !!!  Even I had the same problem... I used Folx downloader evry time to download the PDF file and open it using preview . Thanks You So much DN Scott & Scorbett.

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

  • Why can I no longer print pdf files?

    So, I had Vista and updated last night to Windows 7 Professional.   I did this because I have been unable to print pdf files for the past 8 to 9 months and got tired of forwarding to another computer to print.  Prior to that, no issues printing from any program including reader.  In the meantime, I have uninstalled and reinstalled Reader at least 4 times.  Checked all my settings (won't even print as image only) and I still get blank pages.  When I choose print my computer performs the funtion, but the Adobe "progress" bar doesn't count up from 1 to 100 numerically.  It starts at 1 and then jumps to 50 or 100.  My printer initializes and then nothing but blank pages.  I don't know what else to try so any help would be greatly appreciated!  Also, plain old English would be helpful.  I used to be good at this, but...now just ok.
    Thanks in advance

    I do not need advice!
    I have given up.
    I can C I'm having it easy compared to every one else in here.
    My pdf fioles need 10-15 over and over prints and still it's no good.
    Reading all this stuff is soo exhausting.
    And now I spend hours looking and adjusting stuff to print a pdf file.
    I'm not in Grade 8!
    I just had to say this, Sorry.

  • 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.

  • I can't view or print PDF files anymore.  This just started in the last 3 months., I can't view or print PDF files anymore.  This just started in the last 3 months.

    Since May of this year, I have been unable to view PDF files or print them.  I have downloaded the latest Adobe and Firefox.  I had a long talk with a tech from Scottrade who gave me a bunch of ideas, none of which helped.  HELP!!

    TO MARK,
    To tell you the truth, until you asked the question, I never heard of Preview.  In trying to open the AP, I saw that it had never been opened and I couldn't open it when I tried today.  Can you shed any light on this?

  • Help~how can I download and upload pdf file in simple solution

    I am new doing Portal.
    I want to create a page which can provide download pdf file function and other page which can provide upload pfg file function.
    I created a link to download file, and implemented uploading files by access the file directory.
    Can this solution work in Portal?
    I've tried, but I couldn't access file directory through web_dav.
    Anyone can give me some suggestion?

    You can only install apps (programs) via the App Store app on your iPad, or by downloading them via iTunes store on your computer and then syncing them to your  iPad - you can't download and install programs from the internet via a browser, they are not compatible with the iPad.

  • How do you download and open PDF files that come in the email?

    I can NOT download or open PDF files. It prompts me to open in IBooks and then it's not there. I am so frustrated. PLEASE HELP!

    Touch the attachement once to download it.  Then touch it a second time, after it is downloaded ( watch the attachment icon) to open it in quick view. if you want to do something more than just view it, and if you want to save it,  Touch and hold the downloaded attachment to get the 'open in' pop up, and any app that supports PDFs, like I books, or any of the other PDF ready apps.
    If it is not downloaded yet, it will not be in I books.

  • I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 on Windows XP, SP3

    I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 All-in-One.
    I have an (obsolete) Windows XP, SP3 computer.  Obviously, no updates from Microsoft
    have occurred that might have impacted my Canon Pixma MX479.
    When I attempt to send 1 or more pages from a PDF file to the printer, I don't even get the
    Canon PIXMA popup that would allow me to cancel the print job.
    Yet the Print Queue icon appears in the lower right corner of my monitor.
    If I view the Print Queue, the print queue shows "spooling" and does nothing more.
    If I attempt to CANCEL the print job in the Print Queue, it simply changes to "deleting -
    spooling".
    I cannot cancel the print job that shows NOT RESPONDING via Task Manager, either.
    In fact, the only way the Print Queue icon disappears is if I totally reboot my computer!
    "Luckily", I can still print e-mails, Word documents, and even my downloaded PDF of my
    bank statement.
    So, I was thinking that it was *only* PIXMA'S OWN SCANNED PDFS that could not be
    printed ON THE SAME PIXMA 479.
    However, I have since realized that I also cannot print USPS Signature Proof of Delivery
    PDFs that I received from USPS via e-mail.
    So why can I print *some* PDF files, but not *all* PDF files, like I previously could do?
    THESE SCANS ARE OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS, SO I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO E-MAIL
    THE REQUISITE, PREVIOUSLY SCANNED PDFS TO FEDEX TO PAY FOR *THEM*
    TO PRINT THEM.
    NOTE: I *have* tried turning the PIXMA off, unplugging it, rebooting the computer, plugging
    the PIXM in and restarting the PIXMA - still no ability to print PIXMA-scanned PDFs.
    And, I find it very strange that e-mails, Word documents, and some other PDFs print with
    no problem "around" "NOT RESPONDING" PIXMA print jobs.
    I have owned Canon printers for years, including the MX420, and the MX340.

    There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

    I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
    I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

  • I can no longer print pdf files

    When I select a PDF file to print
    First "Print to File" pops-up
    Next "output file name" box opens
    This all changed when I downloaded 8.1.2 . First all of 8.0 was not removed. I did that. I uninstalled 8.1.2 more than once. I even changed to firefox from IE 7.
    I am not a computer person. I do need to be able to print pdf files
    I will take any help. Keep it simple, please!
    I use Windows XP Home sp2

    I am a mac OS X 10.4.11 user and I have adobe acrobat 8 professional. Recently, I am unable to print pdfs. I can open them to read, but when I send them to the printer they won't print. The printer icon just jumps then nothing happens.
    I tried switching printers, from a HP 990cse to a Cannon pixma iP4300 however that doesn't help either. Same result (or rather lack of results).
    Any thoughts on what is wrong?
    Thanks

  • After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. How do I uninstall and reinstall the software?  Adobe's instructions are only for Window devices.

    After downloading latest Reader software (11) on my Mac (OS10.7.5) I cannot print pdf files on either of my two printers. I suspect corrupt software.  How do I uninstall and reinstall the software?  Adobe's on-line instructions are only for Window devices.

    You can just drag the file to the trash. If you want you can remove  the pdf plug-in from the internet-plug in folder, but that should not be necessary to correct your problem.

  • Orarrp can't print pdf file directly to printer

    oracle remote print utility (orarrp) can't print pdf file directly to printer.
    we expect orarrp utility can handle ".rrpa" file (i.e. pdf file generated on the application server) by directly print the file to the client's printer, i.e. invoke the acrobat reader on the client side, display the the printer selection dialogue, after confirmation print the pdf file, then the acrobat reader close automatically nicely.
    However we are disappointed as the acrobat reader startup and display the pdf file content but does not print and does not close.
    After testing the problem several times, there are some findings:-
    Finding (A):-
    (a) for the success of direct printing of pdf file, a physical path must be provided; we have tried 2 methods:
    1) using drag & drop to copy the pdf file directly to the browser
    2) open pdf file in the browser directly using browser menu-->File-->Open.
    (b) for the failure of direct printing, a virtual path is involved and we have also tried 2 methods:
    1) when web.show_document() is used
    2) enter the url to the URL bar of the browser,
    eg. http://appsvr.com:7777/report/test_printout/APPSVR1094707.rrpa (this is a virtual path/url)
    Finding (B):-
    (a)when the physical path is used, a temporary pdf file is generated in the same directory where the rrpa file exists in the application server,
    e.g. in application server: d:/printout/yyy.pdf is generated for d:/printout/xxx.rrpa when direct print occurs
    (b) however when the virtual path is used, there is no such temp "pdf" file generated and direct print failed.
    May be when virtual path is used, orarrp utility don't know where to generate the temp "pdf" so direct print doesn't occur.
    So, anyone has similar experience or further queries or has solutions, please join.
    Thanks for your attention.

    Hi,
    It is really late to give response this post. But still who ever refering to this post for the same issue this solution is useful for achieving same in background:
    Even same can be used in smartforms, for getting spool request in PDF format as well which will decrease the size of file when printing in SAP printer.
    ct_tline is PDF output:
    DATA: lv_pdfsource TYPE xstring.
    FIELD-SYMBOLS:<p> TYPE x. " <p> type any.
    LOOP AT ct_tline INTO cs_tline.
      ASSIGN cs_tline TO <p> CASTING TYPE x.
      CONCATENATE lv_pdfsource <p> INTO lv_pdfsource IN BYTE MODE.
    ENDLOOP.
    * ->Create spool request in PDF format
    CALL FUNCTION 'ADS_CREATE_PDF_SPOOLJOB'
      EXPORTING
        printer  = 'LOCL'            "Printer name supporting PDF device type
    *   DEST     =

  • Can no longer print PDF files on C310.

    Morning,
    have a HP C310.  Used to work fine...  Frustratingly it no longer prints PDF files.
    I've uninstalled everything and reinstalled it.
    Updated drivers.
    Tried the print as an image.
    Prints other documents fine.
    When I try and print a PDF file it seems like the printer is just ignoring the request.
    Any further suggests before I through it out the window and buy a printer that works.....  
    Thanks in advance,
    Daren

    Hmm...  OK, I happen to have the same printer (on wireless LAN) and OS and it prints fine for me....
    Are you printing from File, Print or from the printer icon?  I recall that Adobe applications may have their own version of what the default printer is.  If using the printer icon try instead with File, Print and make sure the c310 is selected as the printer.  Also check the Advanced settings in the print menu.  In my case all the boxes are unchecked (except the grayed-out selection for downloading Asian fonts in the postscript box). 
    One other thing to check would be to open the print spooler and then print a PDF and make sure that a print job does show up and then disappear from the spooler.
