Cannot browse PDF file on OSX Yosemite without severe usability problems. (Reader 11.0.10)

I have 7GB of ram on a MacPro (tower, early 2009) with Adobe Reader 11.0.10,
The PDF file I was trying to view is available @ https://archive.org/download/examplesofenglis00coll_0/examplesofenglis00coll_0.pdf
Here is a screencast of the usability issue I am having trouble with happening:
Adobe Reader Usability Breaks (11.0.10).mp4 - Google Drive
And in another context, and some what unrelated, I had some trouble with the support page, see this video: Adobe Support Page Breaks.mp4 - Google Drive
(I thought Adobe may like to know)

As well, other issues that I was experiencing included randomly jumping to other pages when trying to zoom in or while using the vertical scroll bars.

  • Cannot turn off file vault OSX Yosemite

    So, I started out trying to install windows via bootcamp assistant & got an error when I hit partition drive. After a call to apple support this is apparently caused by filevault encryption being enabled. So I tried to disable it, it says to wait until disk is finished encrypting. Ok, fine but it also says encryption is paused because it wants a power connection, even while its plugged in at 100%. I tried a host of commands to make it start up again & cleared PRAM & immediately booting into recovery mode. Tried disk utility to disable encryption both in & out of recovery mode. I am completely at a loss here. My diskutil cs list output looks like this:

    Any Ideas here? I'm at a loss on what to try besides re-installing as I have quite a lot of files and nothing to back them up to.

    Back up all data before proceeding. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Disk Utility.
    In the Disk Utility window, select the icon of the startup volume from the list on the left. It will be nested below another disk icon, usually with the same name. Click the Unlock button in the toolbar. When prompted, enter the login password of a user authorized to unlock the volume, or the alternate decryption key that was generated when you activated FileVault.
    Then, from the menu bar, select
              File ▹ Turn Off Encryption
    Enter the password again.
    You can then restart as usual, if the system is working. Decryption will be completed in the background. It may take several hours, and during that time performance will be reduced.
    If you can't turn off encryption in Disk Utility because the menu item is grayed out, you'll have to erase the volume and then restore the data from a backup. Select the Erase tab, and then select
              Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    from the Format menu.
    You can then quit to be returned to the main Recovery screen. Follow these instructions if you back up with Time Machine. If you use other backup software, follow its developer's instructions.
    Don't erase the volume unless you have at least two complete, independent backups. One is not enough to be safe.

  • Cannot view pdf files in browser

    brand new imac cannot view PDF files in browser but the PDF's can be viewed if downloaded. All the data in the PDF online have question marks instead, maybe a missing font issue?

    Have Adobe Reader installed? If so, disable the AdobePDFViewer.plugin resident in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins., restart, and try again. For font-associated issues, peruse Font Management in OS X

  • With OSX 10.8.5 cannot open PDF files with 11.0.04?

    using OSX 10.8.5 cannot open PDF files from Xerox Docushare with recently downloaded PDF 11.0.04

    That crash is a known bug in Apple's display code.
    But it's the QuickDraw code, which Apple does not want to fix.
    There is nothing we can do about that OS bug, other than to suggest using a more recent version of Photoshop written to the Cocoa APIs.

    Why the question marks? Can you open PDF files or not? You don't need Firefox to open PDF files.

  • Cannot open pdf file with Firefox 11.0

    Firefox automatically upgrades the version I am using. Since it was recently upgraded I cannot open pdf files. Am faced with a blank page. I went through some of the suggestions on these pages and when I opened the Tools window, there is a warning:
    Firefox PDF Plugin for Mac OS X is incompatible with Firefox 11!
    Is there a way around it? Or is it time to say goodbye to Firefox and move to Safari?

    When Firefox updates, it turns
    off add-ons that are not
    compatible with the new
    version. In addition, add-ons
    that may have been
    automatically installed by other
    programs without your
    knowledge (third party add-
    ons) have been disabled. For
    more info about re-enabling
    add-ons, see the link below.

  • Mavericks CPU can't open pdf files created on Yosemite

    I've looked around for this issue, but I haven't seen any questions similar to mine.
    My wife and I have identical MacBook Pros. Hers is running Mavericks, while I've updated mine to Yosemite.
    By chance, we realized that if I email her files created on my laptop, she can't open them. I've sent her Pages files, and the same files converted to PDF. So, either on Preview or Pages, she cannot open those files I've sent her.
    I know that the easy answer is "update your wife's laptop to Yosemite," but I'm rather curious whether there's a bug in the system that hasn't been discovered. Besides, my wife is quite happy with Mavericks, and that's fine by me.
    Any help or suggestion in this regard will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    BK

    I just tested opening a Pages v5.5.1 file on Yosemite and Exporting it to a PDF file. Then I copied the PDF and Pages files over to another Mac running Mavericks and I was able to open and view the PDF file. I can't open the actual Pages file in Mavericks created in Yosemite because the Pages app is a different version in Mavericks (v5.2.2) and not compatible with the Yosemite version. But, PDFs definitely work fine and I can also open/view the same PDF file on a Mac running Mountain Lion. So, Preview in Mavericks and Mountain Lion, for me, open and view PDF files created from Yosemite/Pages without issue.
    Have you tried opening your PDF file on another Mac running Mavericks?
    You might try reinstalling Mavericks on top of itself. Maybe Preview in Mavericks is somehow corrupt. On the Mavericks Mac, you can redownload/reinstall Mavericks from the App Store using the same Apple ID that originally downloaded it. Or restart the Mavericks Mac into the Recovery HD (Command+R) and Reinstall OS X from there. Back up before you do the reinstall. The reinstall won't harm any data or apps. It just installs the OS over itself.

  • Is there a way to download/view PDF files on the iPad without using another computer?

    I just recently purchased the new iPad. I have also downloaded iBooks and a PDF reader. Is there any way to view and/or download PDF files from my iPad, without using an outside computer? Please help!

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    One way is to get the GoodReader app. It has a built in web browser that allows you to web surf and download pdfs into GoodReader. You can read them in the GoodReader app or open them in other apps that can read pdfs.

  • Cannot open pdf files

    I cannot open pdf files from the internet.  I just get a small white cross in a black background in the top left hand corner of the screen.  This is not just from one website but happens with all.  Advice please.  I am using Windows 7 Home Premium and Internet Explorer as the browser and have the latest Adobe.

    Richvan2, welcome to the forum.
    The first thing you should do is run your antivirus program.  It could be a virus.
    Then, you should download the latest version of Adobe Reader.  It may be a glitch in the current version on your computer.

  • Cannot print PDF files on Mac OS X

    Hi,
    since some update from Reader 8.1 to 8.1.2 I cannot print PDF files anymore. Meanwhile I installed Reader 9, but with no luck.
    If I crank up the preferences I get the error "Failed to load an application resource (internal error)." ... maybe there is something wrong with the installation, but even an reinstall doesnt fix it.
    If I try to print I get only the message "The document could not be printed" and then "There were no pages selected to print." ... no matter what PDF I try to print.
    The Apple Preview works without any problems, so the PDFs should be good.
    Can anyone help me on this ... its really frustrating.
    Best Regards
    --Michael

    I had this same problem. I did a clean install of OS X 10.5.6 to an USB hard drive, installed Adobe Reader 9, and tried printing. It worked fine. Then I cloned the external drive back onto the internal drive and it failed with the same no pages selected problem.
    It turns out that my filesystem on my internal hard drive is case sensitive, but the external hard drive had the default case-insensitive file system.
    To fix, do this:
    Go get yourself an external firewire or usb hard drive at least as big as your internal drive. Plug it in and use Disk Utility.app (under /Applications/Utilities) to Erase it and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". The download CarbonCopyCloaner, a free utility that can copy an entire drive. Use CCC to clone your Macintosh HD to the external drive.
    Now that you have a backup drive, go to System Preferences and choose Startup Disk. Pick the external drive as the the startup drive. Reboot and check that your printing works properly now.
    If that fixed your problem, while you are booted from the external drive, use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD and format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" not "Mac OS Extended (Journaled) case-sensitive". Then use CCC to copy everything back. Reboot.

  • Cannot open PDF files on internet with Acrobat 7.0

    I use Acrobat 7.0 to make and read my PDF files.  Also have reader 9.0 installed.  Today internet explorer 9 stopped reading pdf files on the internet.  Tried selecting both Acrobat 7.0 and Reader 9.0 but neither work.  Only get the cannot open the file message.  Tried three different sites to try different PDF files.  Suggestions???

    Only for reading files there are some other (newer but small) viewing tools. remember that.
    Also I wouldn't use the in-browser function of any tool you use. It's not necessary.
    The file will be also downloaded to your machine, there is no on the fly reading or anything else you expect.
    so why will you waste screen size caused by the second menu bar.
    Set your browser to open .pdf files outside, so you get more control where files are saved and you get a better screen size.
    In my opinion in-browser-pdf is senseless, just a confusing gimmick.
