I cannot open online videos in my macbook pro

How do i open online videos in my macbook pro

Hi How are you doing it and what happens when you try? Are they HTML5.

I used to be able to open .pdf documents on my MacBook Pro using FireFox with NO problems, all of a sudden NOW they won't open and i get "unsupported" error messages. What the ****? I need to fix this ASAP! Can anyone help in simple non geek language?

THANKS.

Depending on which version of Firefox you're using, it no longer currently supports the plug-in provided with Adobe Reader. You have to use PDF Plugin 2.4.4. Just disable the Adobe plugin and use the Schubert plugin.

I can't open PDF's on my Macbook Pro.

It keeps popping up with the following message:
Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.
How do I fix this?

Launch Reader from your applications folder. Accept the agreement.

I cannot open PDF's from a friends new PC, to my MacBook. All other emailed PDF's are able to be opened. The attachments show up as "win mail.dat" files, that Adobe will nor open. What can I do?

This is due to windows encoding of the files for mailing. You need TNEF's Enough

I purchased an annual subscription to Acrobat Pro XI and installed on my Mac two days ago. I cannot open PDFs. I keep getting a dialogue box saying my trial has ended and asking if I want to buy the software. Was using Acrobat Pro 9 previously. It appears even that won't open. SOS!

Hi Margot ,
You can click on accept or buy ,which ever option you see on that dialog box.It will prompt you to type in your Adobe Credentials.You can license it by doing the same.
If it still doesn't work ,follow these steps and see how it goes .
Delete all the files from following folders:
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLCache
And, delete all files from following folder except cache.db
[Home]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/AdobePCD
Then launch Acrobat and try to activate and check.

Hello. My safari (and i keep it updated) cannot open PDF files. Should i install Adobe Reader and which version????? I have Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9

My safari (and i keep it updated) cannot open PDF files.Should i install Adobe Reader and which version????/ I have Mac Book Pro running OS 10.9
Please help me!!!!

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, 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, 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 — I don't have a complete list.
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.

If all that you want to do is open PDF files, you can download Adobe Reader from http://get.adobe.com/reader/

I cannot open PDF files within Firefox.

I'm running Firefox 3.6.23 on a Macbook pro with version 10.6.8 installed. However I'm unable to open pdf files online. It works on google chrome from the same computer, just not firefox. There is a blank area where the pdf file should open, and nothing happens. I cannot download the file using firefox either. I've tried restarting and such, can you please help me?

Does this help with Firefox?

Cannot open .pdfs. Updates downloaded. Please help

"There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired."
This is the error message I have been getting for the last three weeks or so. Cannot open .pdfs on MacBook Pro. No changes have been made to computer. Please offer suggestions. Adobe Reader updates have been downloaded. Please help! Thanks.

If Reader and Preview can't open them, they are most likely damaged.

Office mac 2011 cannot open pdf

I cannot open pdf files in office mac 2011.
Does anyone have any suggestions.

It sounds like you want to be able to modify a PDF in Word.
If that is the case you need a program that will open the PDF and then perform an OCR (Optical Scan Recognition) on it to convert it back to text (PDF is a form of image/graphic file; like a photo taken of how it will print).
Take a look at PDFPen Pro:

They also have a more limited featured version for less money:

hi FalconMom,
EWS stands for Embedded Web Server. You will be able to access the printer EWS if it is connected to the same network as your PC or notebook. Here are the instructions to connect to EWS.
Open the embedded Web server
You can access the embedded Web server via either the network or Wi-Fi Direct.
To open the embedded Web server via network
NOTE: The printer must be on a network and must have an IP address. The IP address for the
printer can be found by pressing the Wireless icon or by printing a network configuration page.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address or hostname that has been assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 192.168.0.12, type the following address into a Web browser:
http://192.168.0.12.
To open the embedded Web server using Wi-Fi Direct
From the Home screen, touch (Wireless) and then touch (Settings).
If the display shows that Wi-Fi Direct is Off, touch Wi-Fi Direct and then switch it on.
From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wi-Fi Direct name,
for example: DIRECT-**- HP Officejet-5740 (where ** are the unique characters to identify your
printer). Enter the Wi-Fi Direct password when prompted.
In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.
