Cannot close a pdf document

I a opened a pdf file attached to an email. Had to use a password. It opened and I was able to read the document. I restarted my computer while the document was still open. When the MacBook Air restarted the enter password page of the pdf appeared. When I put the cursor on the pdf the 'pinwheel' appears, turning, but I cannot access the password box or close the document.
Please help!

Quit the application. Force quit if necessary.
Relaunch it by holding down the shift key and clicking its icon in the Dock.

What is your operating system? Browser? Reader version?
What exactly means "cannot"?

I cannot print adobe pdf documents. Password protected. How do I fix this problem?

You'll need to remember it or recreate the PDF from the original file.
If there were an easy way to get around that, passwords wouldn't be worth much.

IMac. Adobe Acrobat Pro 8.3.1. Since I installed Yosemite, cannot insert a pdf document into a pdf document. What's my upgrade?

I have an iMac with Yosemite. I have Adobe Acrobat Pro van 8.3.1.
I am unable to insert a pdf document into a pdf document. I go to Document/Insert in the menu bar, get a spinning ball, can do nothing with the app except force-quit.
What's my upgrade? I cannot find one. Do I have to pay full price for a version that will work?

Your version of Acrobat is quite old and not compatible with any current OS, so problems are to be expected. It is too old to qualify for an upgrade as well, so if you want the current version (XI) then you need to purchase a new license, which you can do via the Adobe Products Page.

I cannot print a PDF document

I cannot print a full PDF document from my computer. I open the document and select my printer and click print and I only get the first page. I tell it to do a range of pages and I sometimes get the first 2 pages. Can anyone tell me if there is a setting somewhere that I can change to get this to work. I have downloading the document and saving it to my computer and then printing, and still no luck. This is becoming VERY frustrating.
Thank you for any help you can give.

First what program are you using to open the pdf document that would be a start? Also what kinda printer do you have? And also look here as well:

Cannot Print Some PDF documents

Hello All,
I am unable to print some PDF documents to my printer HP (Laserjet Pro 400 color MFP). The MAC OS is Moutain Lion. The documents look like they are printing but no print job is produced and no error message is given.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
Many Thanks

Hello eorilly5,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like you are unable to print from anything from your printer.
I would recommend these troublehsooting steps from the article named Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3147.
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
All the very best,
Sterling

PLEASE HELP. Cannot open a PDF document via a link in an email. I am using Mac 10.7.5 and Firefox.

If I receive a PDF document attached to an email by way of an icon, I can double click on the PDF icon and the document opens. HOWEVER, if I receive a link to a PDF document in an email, and I click on the link which leads me to a webpage with another link to a PDF document, when I click on the document, a new web page opens but NOTHING happens - no download box - just nothing.
Please help. This is so frustrating.
Yes, I can right click and 'Save As' - but I don't want to. I want it to open as it used to open - displaying the open PDF document in a new web page.
Then I tried to click on a download button on a website to retrieve my statement - but again, a new web page would open but it would be BLANK. No sign of any download.
When I used to open PDFs on a webpage, I used to get the Download box which asked if I want to OPEN or SAVE. This doesn't appear any more.
Any help would be appreciated.
I have already gone to HD / Internet Plug-ins and deleted the two Adobe PDF plug ins - but this hasn't fixed my problem.

Click on the below link :

Step 1: select Mac OS X 10.6-`0.`0
Step 2 : Safari and FIrefox
Then click on " Download Now" button.

How do I close a PDF document automatically when the browser is closed?

I have a web app writen in HTML/ASP. In order to acccess this app, our users have to enter a password and user id. Once on the main page of the app, they can click on a link which opens the reader in another window. Quite often, when finished with the app, they close the browser, but leave the reader window open (with sensitive information). It is becoming to riskly to hope that they remember to close that window also, even with visual reminders. I would like for that window to close automatically when the browser with the app is closed.
Can this be done?

Let me elaborate a little more on what I am trying to do.
(1) A website (#1) is opened after entering a UID and PWD.
(2) Within website #1, a link is clicked which opens a second web app (#2) in a seperate window using window.open().
(3) Within website #2, a user can click on a link which opens a PDF as _SELF.
(4) If the user:
(a) exits out of website #1 by closing the brower
(b) we would like to automatically close the PDF from website #2 also, as this contains sensitive information and most of the time the users are forgetting to close it

I recently retired and stopped my subscription toe Adobe Pro. Now I cannot open a pdf attachment in an email with Adobe Reader. How can I solve this issue?

OK. Then the next thing to try is to right-click a PDF file, select Open With, Choose Default Program, then select Reader from the list and tick the "Always use this application..." box, and click OK.

I cannot open a pdf document in Safari 6

When I clik, on a website to a link opening a pdf document I only get a black screen and no pdf opens! (Mac OSX Lion et safari version6.0.2
What dan I do?

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 the letters “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 automatically close a PDF document after it is done printing?

Hello all,
To cut to the chase I am using the System Exec.VI to open a PDF with Adobe Reader 8.0 and printing the document. I can do this without a problem. The problem is I would like to have this window close automatically when it is done printing. I have seen on the web that the switch to make this happen is /t, but for some reason my pdf doc is not closing. My command line looks like this
"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /t "path to the file" "default printer name"
Is there another way to terminate the window not using switches in the command line statement?
I have tried using active x calls to open the doc and print but I am not seeing any print options in the active x calls. I have searched thourgh a large portion of the classes and could not find any print statements. I have also tried opening the doc with the system exec.vi and priting and then closing it with active x but I get an error message back.
Has anyone had any success in opening a pdf doc, printing and then closing the window automatically afterwards?

Hi gammalight,
i use Adobe Reader 7.0 and it works in this way for me. The document is printed with the default printer.
Mike

I cannot open a pdf document from a website

I am using Int Explorer and have Reader 9.1 installed. When I try to open a pdf doc I get a box which has Adobe Reader top left and blue question mark and an OK box. When I click OK nothing happens. I have tried the various suggestions from knowledge base including making sure Reader was enabled but to no avail. It does not happen all the time as I have been able to view pdf pages from a manufacturers on line catalogue. Any ideas??

I recieve them as Email attachments.
That could be the problem; attachments often get damaged during the transport.
Can you ask the sender of these documents to upload one of them to a file sharing server (SendNow, Dropbox, Google Drive, ...), and see if you can get the document undamaged?
