Not sure but maybe some exotic compression? Where did you get
that TIFFs
and how they were prepared?

Which application do you use to view tiff-files ?
Did you write a trace-file ?

Can't save 24 x 36 ai version 9 file when opened in CS6

Can’t save 24 x 36 ai version 9 file when opened in CS6, even when opened as an outline format. I was able to save the file when reduced to 8 x 11, once saved I resized it back to 24 x 36 but it still didn’t work. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

Sorry to have taken up your time, I have figured it out. I have about 50 layers and one was bad, process of elimination, I deleted one by one till I found the layer that was causing it to fail. Files I had converted from .DWG to AI coused an error

Viewing tif files - not tiff

I am using iWS 4.1 to serve my tif files viewed by IE5.x
The problem is that on some platforms, the request comes for a tiff file rather than tif and of course the file does not exists and user gets an error.
Can we setup iWS to return tif file when a request comes for a tiff file? I hear IIS has such a feature.
Thanks,

You guys are not getting my point.
I am using Adobe Acrobat Professional 8/9 for creating a PDF that picks up text files and image (Jpg, bmp, tif) files from a network shared folder and inserts them into an empty Template PDF file by making use of Acrobat events through Javascript.
This all works fine as long I dont include any Tif file and PDF is created successfully.
Now all other file types including text files, jpgs, gif are opening up but problem is with .tif files.
You can check this by directly opening image files in Adobe Acrobat Profesional 8/9 from File --> Open menu option.
Other images will open up but most Tif files won't open in it. Such tif files also not open in "Winodws Picture and Fax Viewer" software but will open in softwares like "Imaging Professional" , "IrfanView" etc, which I think use some special codec for it.
If you know of any Acrobat plugin that can be incorporated in Acrobat professional and convert these tif files to PDF on the fly, would be of great help or have some any other suggestion you feel is right.
Thanks

Can't view pdf files in gmail (OS 5.01)

Since I have installed OS 5.1 I can't view pdf files in my gmail account. I can view them on yahoo (same email) or with the previous OS. I just download 5.01 a week ago so I am not sure if I missed something for settings or if I need to change something because my search has not discovered anyone else having an issue.
Thanks!

Yes, I can view emails it is the PDF files I can't download or view. In OS 4 I could touch the attachment and it would open up, now when I touch the attachment it just tries to download. This is for all PDF files in gmail.

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?

How Can I View DVD Files?

My guitar instructor shoots a short video (usually 5min or less) at the end of every lesson to help me review what we learned. While these DVDs play just fine on my iMac, I'd like to copy them sometimes over to my iPad so I can view them when I'm travelling. I can handle copying them over to my iPad, but have run into a major stumbling block:
When I open the double click the DVD on my desktop, it opens a Finder window. (Good so far!). But, the Finder window is empty (not so good!). It shows zero items in the status bar. Obviously, there are files there, as the DVD plays just fine...I'm just not able to view them.
Any idea what I need to do in order to view the contents of the disk in order to convert the video over to my iPad?
I'm attaching a couple of files so you can see what I'm seeing:
The above Finder window is what I see after double clicking the DVD on my desktop.
When I Get Info about the DVD, I see the below information:
Any idea what's going on, and what I need to do?

Barny,
Thanks...I must be getting old! I'd tried a couple of DVD ripping software apps I had laying around, and neither worked. Thinking there must be something else I need to do, I posted this question.
After reading your answer, I went back and looked (closer!) at my applications, and realized I'd forgotten all about RipIt. I launched Ripit, and it was able to rip the DVD (and compress it for playback on my iPad) with no problem.
It's still disconcerting that I can't view any files on the DVD in the Finder, but it is what it is, I guess.
Thanks again for jogging my memory!

Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore. It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version. Please help? I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

Since I have Yosemite on my iMac I can't view PDF files in Safari anymore. It keeps telling me to upgrade my Adobe Reader, but it is the latest version. Please help? I don't have this problem on my Macbook that does not have Yosemite installed.

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 or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk 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 by pressing 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 4 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.

Can't view .mov file with quicktime

Hello. I need help viewing a .mov file with Quicktime 7.5. It was recorded on a Canon Vixia HV30 camcorder and given to me on a dvd. But when I try to view the .mov file with Quicktime, I can hear the audio but the screen is black. Sometimes, it asks me to continue to the following link:
http://www.apple.com/quicktime/resources/components.html?os=Windows&ctype=696d64 63&csubtype=69636f64
I'm not that computer savvy - what is wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Sorry. My "then" (above) should have been "they".
They sent you a data DV containing the "source" from the camera and the HDV codec isn't available on your PC so you can't view the file.
Ask the authors to convert the file using H.264 Video codec (or others) so your Windows version of QuickTime can play the file.

Simple fix to view pdf files when screen is black. Cannot view pdfs

My screen is black and I can't view pdf files. Seems like the pdf is working but the screen is black. Does anyone have a simple fix for this?

Are you using the "AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin" with Safari? Sine I use Acrobat Pro XI, that's my 'default' PDF reader - you're able to interact with forms - as they were designed - much better in Reader than in Preview. I guess as an AcroForm designer, Preview is a bit of a slap in the face when it comes do viewing well-designed forms and portfolios: I've a 164 element portfolio, for instance, that Reader correct views while Preview tries to unsuccessfully 'preview' 164 pages - not the intended design.
Anyway, to the OP, I still suggest downloading and installing Reader - it will show forms correctly in Safari and is the 'choice' of AcroForms designers.

I'm new to the Apple products. How can I view pdf files and videos since Apple and Adobe don't play together? Also, what operating system does the iPhone use? I'm a Windows person.

You may want to download and read the manual for your phone. It may answer a lot of the basic questions.

There is an app on your phone called "Mail". Yes, it's for reading your email.
Best of luck.

Can I view .WMV files with 10.7?

Can I view .wmv files with OS 10.7.2?

Mac OS X has no native ability to view WMV files, but you can download and install the free codecs from Flip4Mac:
http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.htm
and use QuickTime Player. Note that not all WMV codecs have been ported to Mac, nor has the copy protection system, so not all videos will work.
