Can't get a PDF to download on my MacBook, but I can on a PC.

I'm trying to download billing statement from a website with Safari on my MacBook. I used two different PCs (with one I used Firefox and the other I'm not sure: possibly IE) to download it and it worked fine. When I try to click on the link on my MacBook, it says operation could not be completed in the downloads window.
Anyone have any idea what is going on?

Hi,
Safari, written by Apple, Firefox written by Mozilla. Two different browsers, two different security and privacy issues.
My $$ is with Safari and OpenDNS.
You could try emptying the Safari cache. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari / Empty Cache.
Relaunch Safari and try again.

  • Getting conversion PDF to MSWord? paid subscription but did not get activation - What to do?

    I paid the subscription price of $19.95 to enable conversion of an Adobe PDF file to MS Word.  But it never shows up as active in the Tools list.  How do I get Adobe to retrieve and activate?  I do not see any e-mail way to contact customer support.

    Which service exactly did you sign up for?  If you go to My Adobe at http://www.adobe.com/ you can select My Subscriptions and Services to see what you have signed up for.

  • Bought photoshop and gets half way through downloading and my macbook crashes.

    I have bought Photoshop after using a trial. I uninstalled the trial and everything to do with it and yet when it comes to downloading Photoshop through creative cloud it gets part way through and my whole macbook crashes. I'm wondering whether this is my macbook or photoshop?

  • How can I get my PDFs to show up as anything but the Firefox html icon?

    I need the old format where the contents of the first page of the PDF showed up as its icon instead of the Firefox icon. Now they all look alike, which really slows down my work production! I now have to read every title to find the PDF I want! Also, the option of being able to pick a picture from inside the PDF as the cover would be even better! This would expedite work tremendously when retrieving PDFs. Is there an add-on or a program I can download that will give me this option? Either way, please help me clear away the little blue and orange foxes all over my folders which really slow me down, besides defeating the entire purpose by accidentally dumping them into the trash! I really prefer Firefox as a browser and do not want to be forced to make a change in order to remedy the issue. I have downloaded at least 6 PDF add-ons and they all create PDFs in Firefox HTML. I have also made changes in Options-Applications which did not remedy the problem either. Thank you for your help!

    hello, does it work when you go into the ''acrobat reader > edit > preferences > general ''& click on the default application option at the bottom? in there reselect adobe's application and confirm this selection...

  • When I open fire fox and try to go into another web site, it tells me that it was unable to connect. I have internet connection and can get into safari because I have a macbook but also need to use firefox. Please help.

    I have a macbook laptop. When I go to open firefox it opens but when I try to get into a website such as www.yahoo or any other, a menu pops up and says it is unable to connect to the server check your internet connection or if u have fire wall check to see if it is set for firefox to connect. I have never had this problem before. All of a sudden it does not want to work and I need firefox to work.

    The both screens always worked fine but now the power book doesn't show anything on the screen.  I didn't drop it or even move it.  Where is the brightness button?  Could I have hit it by mistake?
    Thanks so much for your help.
    F2 is the up-brightness button, F1 is the down-brightness button, usually, on PowerBooks.  If for some reason the F1 button got held down for a couple of seconds, the display would go completely dark.
    That being said, if the backlight does not come up (easily determined by seeing if the Apple outline on the cover is lit up) then the most likely suspect would be the inverter board, or the connection to the inverter board.  If this is a Titanium PG G4, the inverter board is easy and relatively inexpensive to replace.  For the Aluminum models, I don't know if that is quite so true.

  • Pdf docs will load on MacBook but not iMac

    I have an iMac and a Macbook Air. Both bought in the past three years.  I am running a proprietary back end database which uses a browser as a front end and is Java dependant..  Both have current versions of OS Mavericks, Java, safari and mozilla.  The database contains pdf docs that are displayed with the standard pdf icon.  When I click on the icon in my MacBook, they load into Word or Adobe on a separate page.  When I click on the icons in my iMac they do not load.  Does anyone have and ideas?

    Hi.  Thanks for the quick reply.  I realized I was not clear.  The docs are resumes.  If they are Word docs, they open in Word.  If they are pdf, they open in Adobe Acrobat Pro.  These open fine on my MacBook Pro, but not the iMac.  When I try opening them on the iMac, I get a Java error message.  Any ideas?

  • I get the flashing folder on booting my MacBook, but only if it is not connected to a power source.

    I have an early 2008 white MacBook, running Snow Leopard.  A few months ago the hard disk died, and I replaced it.  Now when I turn it on (or even wake it from sleep) I get the grey screen with the flashing folder/question mark.  However, when it is connected to a power source, this doesn't happen. (this is not dependent on battery as when unplugged, it doesn't start even if the battery is full)
    I was hoping for advice on what the problem might be, and how I can sort it to use without being plugged in.
    Thanks

    Once a Mac becomes 4 years old, the PRAM chip's capacitor or battery is likely to go.     This is separate from the battery to affects it on the power lines.   Hopefully yours is a battery, since the capacitor is on the logicboard for those that have a capacitor, and are harder to replace.

  • Where do I find the Getting Started pdf

    I keep seeing RTFM but I can't find TFM. I'm looking for the Getting Started pdf that I keep reading about but it can't find it on this site and its not on my install DVD.
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    Go to this page and type in "logic express" (with the quote marks). There isn't, as far as I know, a manual called Getting Started with Logic Express but you will find Reference, What's New, Plug-ins etc. The Gettign Started book is for Logic Pro but it will certainly help with the early days in Logic Express

  • Cannot get Itunes 10 to download to macbook 10.6.8

    I cannot get Itunes 10 to download on my macbook 10.6.8. when I check for updates via itunes it tells me that there is a new version and when I go to download it my computer tells me all software is up to date. I cannot sync my iphone or ipad
