Default pdf viewer for Digital Booklet

I have Adobe Reader 8.0 on my computer as my default viewer for Acrobat documents. I also have Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Professional installed, which I use to create pdfs. When I click on a digital booklet in iTunes, it opens with 6.0 with an error message. When I click on it in windows explorer, it opens in 8.0. Is there any way to change the iTunes configuration so it will open booklets with Reader 8.0?
thanks

Depends on where you are getting the PDF from. If it's sent as an attachment in an email then Mail will open it; if it's on a website then Safari will open it. You can also download Apple's iBooks app for free which will open PDFs

  • Adobe Reader is always default PDF viewer, why

    I've told Leopard to "Always Use" Preview to open PDFs, but it always defaults back to Adobe reader. There is no toggle in Adobe to tell it not to be the default viewer. Am I missing something?
    John

    Just viewing PDFs.
    I right click on the PDF in Finder. Open With>Other>Enable All Applications>check "Always open with">Select Preview
    It opens with preview.......but, on the second time around, Adobe kicks in and is the default PDF viewer for all future PDF viewing.

    I have tried to deploy the MSI with MST via GPO and Command Line with no luck.  Every time i deploy via below methods, the same result occurs, all of the options are set correctly except the "Make Reader the default PDF viewer".  I know how to manually set this option via Windows or Adobe interfaces but i am looking to roll this out to the masses and would not want a bunch of service desk calls because a user clicks on an Adobe PDF file and it is not opening in Adobe Reader.
    GPO
    Create New Package Use AcroRead.msi
    Choose Advanced
    Deployment Options - Click Uninstall this application when it falls out of the scope of management.
    Modifications - Select Transform file located in the folder of MSI
    Command Line.
    Tried these options to try and apply "Make Reader the default PDF viewer"
    msiexec /i  "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst"
    msiexec /i  "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst" /qn
    msiexec /i "<path>\AcroRead.msi" IW_DEFAULT_VERB=Read
    msiexec /i  "<path>\AcroRead.msi" TRANSFORMS="<path>\TransformFile.mst" IW_DEFAULT_VERB=Read /qn
    Anyone know how to make this setting work with the Transform file, i sure would appreciate assistance on this issue.

    Instead of saving as a PDF thru Work do a Print ➙ PDF ➙ Save as PDF and it will be saved the first time with the Preview icon.

  • How do I change my default pdf viewer back to preview?

    When I installed Adobe CS onto my computer I set the default pdf viewer to be Adobe Acrobat. Id like to change it back to using preview since it opens much quicker but I cant seem to find where to change the setting. Can someone help?

    Via the Finder select a PDF document and use Get Info for the file.
    At Open With, select the Preview application via the pop-up window.
    Select Change All below "Use this application to open all documents like this".

  • Adobe Standard 8 as default PDF viewer, except in websites

    Hello
    I am trying to get Adobe Standard 8 to deploy as the default application when dealing with PDFs, but have Adobe Reader X as the embedded PDF viewer in Internet Explorer.
    I have been successful in getting both applications to install, and X be the default viewer in Internet Explorer, however I can't seem to get 8 to be the default PDF application for opening files on the desktop.  I have played around with a number of different combinations of customization opens through the avaliable tools, but I can't seem to get it to land on the specific configuration I'm looking for.
    Is there a "quick" registry fix I can apply to impliment this scenario?
    Thanks,
    Tim

    Hi,
    What you're trying to do is unsupported. See http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/874/cpsid_87424.html.
    Only X and 9.x have that capability.

  • Set preview as default PDF viewer

    Hello,
    I downloaded the update for Adobe Reader and during installation, it over-rode my choice to use Preview as my default PDF viewer in Safari.  I've searched high and low and tried to change this from both Safari's preferences and Adobe Reader's preferences.  Unfortunately, the section to "click" in Adobe is grayed out and will not allow me to deselect it.  I also tried uninstalling Adobe Reader, but that just caused Safari to not open any PDF documents.
    Any thoughts on how to correct this are greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Eden

    Right or control click a PDF file you already have on your hard drive then click Get Info.
    Click the pop up menu next to: Open with
    Choose Preview from the menu or navigate to the Applications folder and select Preview from there.
    Then click: Change All

  • Restoring Preview as default pdf viewer in Safari

    Hi,
    I mistakenly set Acrobat 7 as my default pdf viewer in Safari and now cannot change back to preview. I tried to click on a pdf doc and set preview as the default, but that doesn't work for pdf files that I need to download.
    I reset Safari, and now it no longer asks me to choose an Acrobat to use, but will not display the download, most likely because it is trying to use Acrobat 5.0 that is installed and is incompatable with Safari.
    I just want preview back. Does anyone know how to do this?
    thanks in advance for your help.
    Amy

    Tuttle,
    THANK YOU!!!!!!
    I was going crazy trying to figure that out. Most of my pdfs (scientific papers)don't print well from Adobe. I have a LaserWriter 4/600 PS that I hooked up to my Airport Express via a crossover ethernet/Farallon system.
    I'm writing a paper and really need to be able to do this.
    Thanks for the quick reply. You continue to save me.....

  • Changing default PDF viewer

    I need to change the default PDF viewer on a large number of computers
    from Acrobat Professional to Reader. When I say "change the default," I
    don't just mean the file association; I mean every default, including
    browser plug-ins.
    When you install Acrobat or Reader on a computer on which the other has
    already been installed, you get a prompt as to whether you want Acrobat
    or Reader to be the default PDF viewer. I want to get at that
    functionality, preferably by script. So far as I have been able to
    discover, the ONLY way to get at that function is by uninstalling one of
    the programs and reinstalling it.
    Is there a deployable way to do this? I prefer scripting methods, but
    manual remote changes are good too.

    I have no choice. This is what I've got to work with. And our Acrobat
    software is controlled by a KeyServer, which is why I need Reader to be
    the default (so as not to use up licenses for mere viewing of PDFs).
    In any case, the two programs do know how to set a default between
    themselves when you install the second one, so that functionality must
    exist somewhere, supported or not.

  • Default pdf viewer Reader icon in finder shows Acrobat

    I previously selected Acrobat Pro as my default pdf viewer. I then changed back to Reader, however in the Mac Finder I am getting the Acrobat Icon. I changed All Files to Reader, but the icon will not change back.
    Am running Reader 11.0.2 and Acrobat Pro 9.5.4
    Operating system Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5

    Hi ,
    Please See the below Steps :
    Step 1
    Single click a PDF file you wish to open or any PDF file in general while holding the control key. Then select 'Get Info' from the menu you've opened.
    Step 2
    Under the heading 'Open with,' the current default application for opening PDFs is listed. If there is no application listed you may need to click the triangle to the left of 'Open with' so that it points downward to reveal the current setting.
    Step 3
    Click on the application listed to open a menu displaying additional applications. In this menu locate the most recent version of Adobe Reader. If Reader is not listed or an old version of the software is listed select 'Other' from the bottom of the menu.  Navigate through your Applications folder to locate the icon for the Adobe Reader application and click to highlight it. Click the Add button to select Reader.
    Step 4
    Back in the information window click the 'Change All' button so that all subsequent PDF files will be opened by Adobe Reader.
    Step 5
    Click the Continue button to confirm that you'd like to change your settings. Now all PDF files will be opened by Adobe Reade

  • Default PDF Viewer

    Acrobat Pro continually asks me if I want to change the default PDf viewer from Preview to Acrobat Pro and I always click NO. How can I get it to stop asking me? I couldn't find anything in the prefs.

    HORRIBLE!!!
    Can't believe there's no way of stopping Acrobat from asking this.
    I DON'T WANT TO CHANGE MY DEFAULT APPLICATION
    Shame on you Adobe - makes me pray for competition so I don't have to use your products again.
    And if it is possible... should be much easier to find a way to switch it off.
    This is unethical manipulation.

  • Acrobat Ignore "Set as default PDF Viewer" Setting

    Hello,
    I see from previous posts that this has been an issue for a while. I have an image that contains Adobe Reader. That image is deployed to all users. Some users get Acrobat Pro. also. So I went thru the whole customization tool and selelcted "Make Acrobat the default PDF viewer" and am using the Setup.ini and .MST file. Everything else works - skips EULA, reads serial number - everything but making Acrobat Pro the default PDF reader. After I install it and launch it for the first time I am presented with the "make Acrobat reader your default PDF viewer" question. How can I set this once and for all and not prompt every single user?

    Unfortunately there is no option post installation with Acrobat 8 to change PDF ownership. However this is possbile Acrobat 10 onwards. But yYou can choose to make Reader XI the default PDF handler during installation itself.
    1. Go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs, select the entry "Adobe Reader XI" and Un-install.
    2. Then visit link : http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ and choose the Reader which you need.
    3. When you double click the EXE, then a screen will come showing extraction of files. As soon as extraction ends, installation will begin and you will be presented with following screen :
    4. Uncheck the checkbox which says "Make Adobe Reader my default PDF viewer"
    Acrobat 8 will remain default PDF viewer on your machine.
