Cannot view a pdf file in Adode Reader 10 using IE8

I just upgraded to Adobe reader X and I use IE8. I click on a link to a pdf (which contains a table of contents) but rather than being able to view the pdf, it automatically prompts me to "save as" rather than just leave the window open so I can read the page (and use the disk button I used to see on reader 9 to save later if I want).  How do I change the settings in Reader 10 so this Save As.. prompt no longer comes up automatically so I can just view the pdf??
Thanks

  • Error: I cannot view any PDF files without launching Reader and accepting end User agreement.  I have already downloaded Reader.

    I am getting an error message when I go to open a PDF file on my MAC that says "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the end user agreement.  I have already downloaded Reader many times and followed all of the troubleshooting options.  I have matched up my software, which is the latest version and checked to make sure my internet security is enabling java script.  I don't know what to do.  Please help.

    Chrome uses it's own pdf viewer. That's why you don't get the message.
    If you are still having the problem on a Mac try:
    Make sure your files are not hidden : http://osxdaily.com/2009/02/25/show-hidden-files-in-os-x/
    Quit Safari and Adobe Reader if running.
    Go to HD/<Users>/<user name>/Library/Preferences/ delete com.adobe.Reader.plist
    Launch Adobe Reader from /Applications/
    You should be prompted to accept EULA.
    If on a Windows machine, do what Bernd described above. Launch Adobe Reader on it's own, not by double clicking a pdf or a link in a browser.

  • I cannot view a PDF file with the script in Adobe Garamond Pro on my iPad.  Can anyone help?

    I cannot view a PDF file written using Adobe Garamond Pro font on an iPad.  Can anyone help?

    Thanks for writing to us. Unfortunately, such advanced javascript support is currently not provided by Adobe Reader for Android.

  • I cannot open some pdf files online with Reader XI (like sample forms in Help section).

    I cannot open some pdf files online with Reader XI (like sample forms in Help section or IRS.gov or credit card statements).  I have uninstalled Reader XI, cleaned and reinstalled.  I have no problem right-clicking and downloading and then viewing the files.  No problem viewing acrobat files.  I'm runnnig Windows 7,  IE9.     I can acces them through Chrome.

    RESOLVED
    I found two suspect programs that were installed within the last 48-hrs that may have caused the problem
    1) - Libre Office - latest update.  This is a fork of Open Office.  (unlikely)
    2) - ManyCam video manipulation software  (likely)
    Following info here, I opted to try to open an Adobe PDF file that was on my hard drive.  When I did, it refused and IE10 gave me an ActiveX error (AHA!!).   When I checked the installation of ManyCam, it had installed a version of DirectX that may have over-written the resident versions or disabled them somehow.
    I uninstalled ManyCam but left Libre Office's update in place, then I ran a system restore from a point 24-hrs before the installations.
    This resolved the problem 100%.
    So, the suggestion here is that there may be one or more program in the wild that is interupting the ActiveX or DirectX systems.  They may be running or installing an older version.  In this case it appears the handlers were broken.
    Once the system restore had completed I was able to open Adobe PDF files within my IE10 browser from the Internet as well as open PDF files from my hard drive.
    Note that this same issue also clearned up a problem I was having with the Comodo Dragon web browser, which is a fork of the Chrome project.  Once I eliminated the suspect program and ran the system restore all was well.  In the instance of the Comodo browser it was unable to open or reach anything - dead white screen below the menu bar.
    So my suggestion would be to take an inventory of recent program installations, remove/uninstall them, run system restore from a date before the suspect programs were added, and see what happens.  In my case that fixed the problem.

  • Cannot open embedded pdf files with Adobe Reader X

    When trying to open pdf files embedded as an object within MS Word or Excel (Office 2007) it comes up with the following message:
    "The program used to create this object is AcroExch. That program is not installed on your computer. To edit this object, you must install a program that can open the object."
    I had no problems with AR v9.
    Similarly, when I try to insert a pdf file as an object it comes up with exactly the same message.

    Sure.
    In Reader X:
    Edit->Preferences->General->uncheck "Enable Protected Mode At Start Up"
    Cheers

  • Cannot open any pdf files since downloading reader to mac

    I have now downloaded reader 9.1 four times to my mac (0S 10.14.1) I have attempted to open credit card statements and i get the black screen with the loading circle in the middle but no statement appears. I've waited a reasonable amount of time so but still no statement. When I downloaded reader I am not getting the user agreement. Any help is most appreciated. I hate change!

    Have you copied the files you want to open to your hard disk? Have you tried opening any of those files from within Reader, and not by double clicking on their icons?

  • Cannot access web PDF files

    I am using an iMac 27 inch mid 2010 with OS 10.9.4 and Safari 7.0.5, processor speed 2.93 GHz, Intel Core i7, 8GB 1333 Mhz DDR3.
    When I try to view a PDF file on the Internet using Safari I get an error message that says "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". This error message occurred when I used Safari 7.0.5 and also after updating Safari to 7.0.6. Normally, I do not have the Adobe Reader open prior to viewing a PDF file on the Internet but, just in case that was a problem, I opened Adobe Reader version 9.5.5 or 10.1.10 prior to opening either version of Safari and got the same error message. 
    However, if I used Firefox 29.0.1 browser I could view the PDF files and copy them to my iMac. Also the Adobe Reader versions 9.5.5 and 10.1.10 will both open local PDF files from my iMac. Prior to updating the OS to 10.9.4 and Safari to 7.0.5 there was no problem opening PDF files over the Internet with Safari 7.0.4 and OS 10.9.3. So, from this I deduce that Adobe Reader is not the source of the problem and that there is something wrong with Safari 7.0.5 and 7.0.6.
    My initial thought was to run Repair Permissions from the Disk Utility but this made no difference. Also the error message does not make sense as you have to accept the End User License Agreement when Adobe Reader is installed and there is no obvious means of accepting the License Agreement again when the Reader is launched after it has already been installed.
    Can you help.

    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.
