Can't see pdf after uninstalling adobe reader

After uninstalling pdf reader from adobe, I lost possiblitiy to opend pdf documents in safari. Usually, before installing adobe reader pdf documents opened nicely in Safari, with link to download or print a document. Now, all what opens is a gray page, without any content in it. When trying printing, I get blank page. Has anyone encountered this problem? How can I switch to old Safari behavior - native pdf reading ability, present in OSX?

Back up all data.
Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
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 launch Safari and test.
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.

  • Why won't Safari open PDF-documents after uninstalling Adobe Reader?

    Hi.
    I wonder why Safari won't open a PDF-document after I uninstallet Adobe Reader. Prior to my installation of Adobe Reader, Safari opened PDF's without any diffyculty.
    I've tried to reset Safari but it didn't seem to help at all.
    What do I do?
    Thanks
    Mike

    There might be a residual plug-in interfering with Safari's PDF opening capabilities.
    Installed plug-ins are listed via Safari > Help menu.
    They are located in
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    and
    ~/Library//Internet Plug-ins
    (tilde is home folder)

  • Can't print any PDFs after installing adobe Reader x version 10 - help!

    I am using Windows XP professional SP 3 and Google Chrome as a web browser.
    Everything worked OK until the upgrade to Reader 10 - I have removed the Adobe reader and reinstalled and no luck.
    I am not able to print PDF's from the internet nor within other programs.
    What should I do?
    Thanks

    This helped me out, works perfectly now. (using OS 10.8.5)
    Remove from the folder /Library/Internet Plug-Ins:
    1) AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    2) AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    backup these plugins - just in case.

  • Can't see forms anymore in adobe reader for iPad.

    Until the update I was able to read this form. Can anyone see why I can't any more? uwo.ca/fhs/kin/ug/programs/guides/honors_bsc.pdf

    Nevermind I solved my own problem.  I can see there has already been alot of people viewing this question.  So I'm going to post what I already posted as a discussion as a reply here.
    I'm not a computer wize and very new to Adobe and creating forms with LiveCycle. So apologize to anyone that reads this and says "duh", but hopefully it will be helpful to someone out there who is struggling like I was.
    First off - the IPad will will definitely be able to view your livecycle forms regardless of what anyone else says! These were my steps;
    1. Create form in LiveCycle Designer.
    2. When you save, select "save as"
    3. When the dialogue box opens, and you are creating the name of what you are going to call your file, below you will see a drop down box labeled "Save As Type". Make sure you switch the file type to "Adobe Static PDF Form (*.pdf)"
    And that's it!
    Here is another tip for a user like me:)
    I need to create a form to post to a website, where people fill it in and save it to their computers. I found that when I just saved the form straight from LiveCycle Designer and then posted, some of the free adobe versions (for PC's) wouldn't let the user fill it in. So this is what I did,
    1. Follow the first 3 steps I listed above.
    2. Next open Adobe (the full version) not the reader. I have Adobe X.
    3. Got to "Save As". It will give you a bunch of options. Select "Reader Extended PDF" and then "Enable Additional Features"
    Add that should be it!
    One more tip for the average to low level user. We had some feedback that when someone open my form in the iPad app. they were not able to fill it in. They could, but what they didn't realize was they needed to select the icon at the top that is a little picture of a speech bubble and pencile.

  • Can't open PDF portfolio in Adobe Reader 11.0.10

    I've seen this question asked a few times on the Forums, but I haven't seen an answer.
    I received a PDF portfolio, but I can't open it on my Mac (OSX 10.10.2) using Adobe Reader 11.0.10. When I try to open it, I get the message, "For the best experience, open this PDF portfolio in Acrobat 9 or Adobe Reader 9, or later." I've tried both Adobe Reader and Acrobat (also 11.0.10) but I keep getting the same message in both. I heard that this can sometimes be a problem caused by Flash, but I am running version 16.0.0.296 of that. I tried updating both Adobe Reader and Flash Player just in case I didn't have the latest version for some reason, but I still can't open the file. Is there anything else that I should do to get it to open correctly?

    Hi Zak ,
    In order to view PDF Portfolio content, you need to have Flash Player installed on your system.
    You might have been prompted to use Flash Player to view the same.
    Have you installed Adobe Flash Player on your system? You can install it from the link mentioned below:
    Adobe Flash Player Install for all versions
    Let us know.
    Regards

  • Can't Open PDF form in Adobe Reader 11.0.3 on Mac OSX 10.8.4 Intel

    Hi,
    I hope you can help, this is driving me nuts.
    I have a PDF Form which opens fine in Windows Adobe Reader, when I attempt to open it on OS X I get the following:
    Please wait...
    If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.
    You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by visiting http://www.adobe.com/go/reader_download.
    For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit http://www.adobe.com/go/acrreader.

Mac is a trademark of Apple Inc., registered in the United States and other countries. Linux is the registered trademark of Linus Torvalds in the U.S. and other countries.
    No matter how long I wait it will not replace this text with the actual form. I have tried installing the latest 10.x as well and still have the same problem.
    How can I debug what is going on rather than just "waiting"...?
    Thanks!

    I'm encountering the same problem on the two computers below. Email attachments will open in the same manner. Attempts to download or open PDFs on the Internet result in a black page with no content or the warning you've noted above.
    Macbook pro 15 running 10.8.4
    Mac Mini running 10.8.4
    I am able to open PDFs on a Mac pro 17 running 10.7.5. I have used airdrop to move the document to one of the above two computers. This results in the original file becoming corrupted and unable to open and the file moved to the other computer will also state that it is corrupted.
    There is clearly something amiss in Adobe and Mac working together. (And it is causing considerable frustration at this point.)
    I should add, I have the full Adobe PDF product on the Mac Mini.

  • Trouble with opening pdf after installing Adobe Reader

    I am trying to download Adobe Reader. I have already downloaded and installed it. I have completed all the steps. However, when I try to open a pdf, it says that I need to launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License agreement then quit and relaunch the browser. When the installation completed, it did not give me the option to do it. How do I fix this? 

    You need to do what it says. If you are on Windows (pre-8.0) go to Start>All programs, find Reader and launch it. If on a Mac, go to Applications, find Reader and launch it.

    I currently have Firefox 15 version  installed and am trying to access a site that requires the current version of Adobe Flash Player (20). When I download and install it, the website still doesn't recognize flash player being installed. What should I do?
    Is that adobe flashplayer issue, java script or something else?
