Can Yosemite read pdf files made in Snow Leopard?

can Yosemite read pdf files made in Snow Leopard?

Yup, restarted my system. First thing I did was open Firefox and try to open a .pdf.
There isn't an Acrobat icon in my system tray, and it's not showing up in my task manager, so is there another way of seeing if it's open?

  • How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?

    How can I read pdf files from LabVIEW with different versions of Acrobat reader?
    I have made a LabVIEW program where I have possibility to read a PDF document.  When I made this LabVIEW program it was Acrobat Reader 5.0.5 that was installed on the PC. Lather when the Acrobat Reader was upgraded to version 6.0, there was an error when VI tries to launch the LabVIEW program. And Later again when we upgraded to Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 I must again do some changes and rebuild the EXE files again
    It isn't so very big job to do the changes in one single LabVIEW program, but we have built a lot of LabVIEW programs so this take time to due changes every time vi update Acrobat Reader. (We have build EXE files.)
    The job is to right click the ActiveX container and Click "Insert ActiveX Object", then I can brows the computer for the new version of acrobat Reader. After this I must rebuild all the "methods" in the Activex call to make the VI executable again.
    Is there a way to build LabVIEW program so I don't have to do this job every time we update Acrobat Reader?
    This LabVIEW program is written in LabVIEW 6.1, but I se the problem is the same in LabVIEW 8.2.

    hi there
    try the vi
    ..vi.lib\platform\browser.llb\Open Acrobat Document.vi
    it uses DDE or the command line to run an external application (e.g. Adobe Acrobat)
    Best regards

  • I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome.

    I removed chrome 10 and newly installed FF4 final, and I can't read PDF files within the browser. There was no problem in Chrome. I can't even see the acrobat reader plugin in the plugins page. Acrobat 10 is already installed in my PC. Every time I try to read a PDF file on the web, FF tries to download it instead.

    As recommended above by Bernd Alheit, I posted this on the Adobe Reader forum. There, I received the advice to repair the installation under the help menu, which I did and it fixed the problem.
    Similar to your solution but found it's a fix found under "HELP" menu and not Add/Remove.
    Thank you.

  • I can't read pdf files through Safari.

    Just recently I cannot read pdf files from Safari.  The file shows up as dark space.  I don't know why?  Guessing I changed something that caused it.  Any ideas?

    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 "Adobe" or “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.

  • How can I read pdf files in linux?

    I know the pdf files can be read by Adodb acrobat,but i can not find the software for linux,How can I download the similar tools ?
    Thanks for advance.

    You can download AcrobatReader fro Linux from adobe.com like the versions of rother OS'es.
    however if you want a nicer UI than Acrobat consider using gv with ghostscript. They might already be installed on your system, since they are part of most Linux distributions.
    It's worthwhile to upgrade Ghostscript to the most recent version, othervise you will be unable to read pdf files that utilizes the newest fads from Adobe.

  • Can't read PDF file from SD card!

    I'm trying to read PDF files on my Life Drive, which has Adobe Reader 3.05. The files are stored on a sd card. I know these files are on it, as I can see these through Windows XP. When I launch the reader, all I get is a blank screen, with the square with the word all next to it, and beam and delete. There is no "open file" to tap on.

    Hi,
    Perhaps your pdf file is damaged or something. I think you can try a utility called Advanced PDF Repair to repair your PDF file. It works rather well for my corrupt PDF files. Its web address is http://www.datanumen.com/apdfr/

  • Security message means can't read PDF files.

    I have recently downloaded Adobe reader 9 and since then I haven't been able to r
    ead PDF files.  An error message says "Your current security settings do not allow this file to be downloaded".  I have since uninstalled the program and reinstalled Adobe 8.1.2. and the same error message comes up.  I have tried repairing the program, but no change.  Previous to this I was reading PDF files without any problems.  Very frustrating - please help if you can.

    Hello there,
    Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, you seem to be in the wrong forum: this one is for questions specific to Acrobat.com (www.acrobat.com). I recommend re-posting your question to the Adobe Reader forum, where it is more likely to be answered satisfactorily:
    http://forums.adobe.com/community/adobe_reader_forums/adobe_reader
    You may also want to search the Reader forum; when I did a search on your error message, I found the following thread (which doesn't directly apply to your situation, but may at least be a clue for you):
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/2719178#2719178
    The error message that you're seeing may not have to do with Adobe Reader, but rather with your email client or computer's security settings; unfortunately, I can't provide any particular advice on how to rearrange those settings to allow for reading PDF files.
    I'm sorry not to be able to offer more specific help; best of luck!
    Kind regards,
    Rebecca

  • Can't read pdf files from websites

    I have tried to read pdf files on two different websites this morning and neither of them will display. I just get a black screen. I have updated to the latest version and have set Adobe Reader as my default reader. I have a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.7.5.
    Please help. Very frustrated.

    Go to: Mac HD/Library/Internet Plugins
    Trash the AdobePDFViewer.plugin and AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin files.
    Empty the trash.
    Relaunch Safari.
    PDFs will now open in the browser.

  • Preview can't read pdf file - what gives?

    Hello,
    I have just upgraded to the latest version of Mountain Lion.  In the past, I used Adobe Reader to open pdf files, but my understanding is that Preview should be able to handle this task.  For most pdf files, this is indeed the case.  However, I have this one file that is a form (which has fileds that can be completed by typing into them and then can be printed) which apparently cannot be handled by Preview.  I get the error mesage "
    To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer.....
    What can I do about this?  Am I missing some plugin or something?
    I'm running this on an iMac with a 2.5HHz core i5 and 12GB of memory.  OS 10.8.5
    Any ideas?

    Arthur,
    Actually, it's a bit complicated.  Adobe Reader on my work PC can open it fine (no, the fileds have not been populated - it's an empty form).  However, AR 10 or 11 for Mac crash om my iMac under Mountain Lion, so I actually don't know if AR can open it on the Mac.  I have another iMac that runs OS 10.6.8 and Adobe reader v8.3 and that reader cannot open the form (looks like it's not current enough).  What I haven't tried yet is loading AR 11 on my Snow Leopard iMAc because I worry about messig up an otherwise functioning situation...
    I actually also tried iSkysoft PDF Editor, but it roo failed to open the file.

  • SOS! I suddenly can't read pdf files.

    I got a new Mac Book Air in September and it has been great. Today I suddenly started having trouble viewing PDF files on a government website. I was prompted to update my Adobe and did so. Now, every time I attempt to open any online pdf file I get a black window. I deleted the plug-in and still have the same issue. What can I do to allow myself access to these online pdf files.
    SOS! I have a major research paper due soon and can no longer see the files I was using for my research.

    Back up all data.
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences 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. Otherwise do as follows.
    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 (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have "Adobe" or “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. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:

  • Adobe reader9 was installed monday, but now I can not read pdf files in windows mail

    I have windows vista. last saturday a popup asked if I wanted to install Adobe9. I clicked OK but later the install failed. talked with adobe support on monday and they installed adobe9 on my pc. however, when emails are sent to me with an attachment that is a PDF file, I can not open the attachment...it loads Acrobat.com instead.
    I think there is a incompatiblity between mail and this new adobe.
    l tried to reload adobe 8.2 but the install fails because it say I have a higher version (9).
    any help would be greatly appreciated since these attachments are info for my home business.
    thank you, larry

    thank you for your response.
    this procedure does work and I appreciate your help. I just wish that the
    PDF file could be opened in mail like it did before the new version was
    loaded. but in the mean time I have your work around.
    I plan on re-contacting adobe and see if they can un-install 9 and then I
    can install 8.2.
    regards, Larry

  • I can't read PDF files online, they must be saved. How can I go back to having the option to read them online?

    When I click on a link to view a PDF file, Firefox tries to make me save the file. This started when I clicked the "do this every time" check box for ONE file. Now I can't undo the selection and my Applications Options control window is completely blank: not only are no PDF options available, no options are available for ANY file type. I have to use Google Chrome to view PDFs online without saving them. I'm running Firefox version 34.0 but the problem started with version 33.
