Don't want Reader to be default viewer

I just had to download the new version of Reader for one particular website and pdf file. Now it is always used by Safari even though Preview is the default setting. I want it to STOP! How do I get Safari to stop using Reader? I have a Macbook Pro and am using OSX Lion. This did not happen with the older version of Reader.

Hi adoberne,
Please check the Disable AdobePDFViewer plug-in under Apple Safar section of the KB: Acrobat Help | Display PDF in browser | Acrobat, Reader XI
You need to delete AdobePDFViewer.plugin and theAdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin from the  the Internet Plug-ins folder.
Regards,
Rave

  • Don't Want Preview To Be Default Viewer

    I'd like an image viewer other than Preview to be my default one. How do I do that?
    The viewer that I want ("Just Looking") has no option to set as default.

    Click on a file that is the file type you want to change (for example: __.jpg or ___.pdf) and go to File -> Get Info. Then go to "Open With" and select the program you want to open it with and then click "apply to all".

  • I want to deploy an application using firefox but I don't want it set as default browser. I am using mozilla.cfg to lockdown firefox.

    I am deploying an application using firefox. I am using the mozilla.cfg file to lockdown firefox and I don't want firefox to be the default browser.

    Try the option to "Force Firefox to make itself the default" as shown in this article - http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_browser
    Another possibility is your email application may be hard-coded to use IE.

  • We don't want to synchronise the custom views on every client accessing the same account

    Hi
    In our company we have a few clients accessing the same exchange account (not as shared mailbox). Outlook always synchronizes the custom view settings and inbox view (such as sorting order) between all clients. We want to disable this behavior, say Client1
    shows ExchAccount1 inbox sorted by categories, Clinet2 shows ExchangeAccount1 sorted by receiving time, maybe having set different default fonts and so forth.
    Every client should be able to keep it's custom view settings even if the view is changed on another client accessing the same mailbox with the same login. Is this possible to accomplish?
    Thanks already

    Hi wasiwasi,
    Base on my knowledge, it is impossible to accomplish.
    When you log the same mailbox on different clients, it will sync with each other, and save the last changed on the client.

  • Don't want Album Starter as default to display pics

    Talk about the evil empire - I thought Microsoft was bad about hijacking your machine! I was recently forced to upgrade Acrobat Reader and it evidently installed Acrobat Album Starter and set it up as the default program to display pictures from my digital camera. Frankly, Explorer does a better job of displaying them. I first tried disabling it, then tried exiting it. But, Adobe Photoshop Album Starter still "controls" my pictures when I click on them. I hate the fact that when clicking on the "+" to zoom in I have no ability for it to automatically zoom in on the point I want to zoom in on. So, not only is the program a junk for what I need, it has taken over my computer through no fault of my own!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Double click on My Documents - on the desktop... then
    Select:
    Tools
    Folder Options
    File Types
    now change the file type to match the s/w... I had this same problem - 3Starter Edition took over as my jpg editor -
    don't you just hate when these software companies want to take over what you are used to!!! I would like to find out how to get that darned Launch icon out of my "running applications" don't know the name of that bar - but Adobe puts it in as a launcher - takes up other resources, I'm sure!!
    Regards

  • Can I reset my search engine to Wikipedia? I don't want any of those default Search Engines anymore they are too intrusive. And I can not Empty Cache any more and Google has taken over the address bar?

    Can someone please explain how this now works? And am I obligated to load Mountain Lion. It's a very expensive price to pay for online privacy that isn't even Private anymore. I am old enough that I don't have to pay ransome. I can just quit.
    I didn't say and was never asked If I wanted Mountain Lion. I can no longer 'Empty Cache' at the end of a session online and when I do a search now (and this has all changed overnight) the query is typed into what used to be the address bar and when the search results appear, after reading the first result and I want to read the second or fifth or Any of the other results of the query I am forced to resubmit the search in the address bar because the 'Page Back' button has been removed and the Little Red Dot closes the Search Results Page altogether.
    What else am I in for with Mountain Lion? I already know that I do NOT want anything to do with iCloud. I am willing to bet a lot of money that a pharmaceutical company one day is going to be holding me for ransome with a new drug that was created out of the symptoms of a once - upon - a - time naturally occuring symptom of aging. At least I can turn my Macbook off and leave it that way and the world will not cease to exist. (Or will it?)

    Get a bootable, external HD (preferably FireWire, since it's 40-50% faster than USB 2 and designed for data transfers), make a bootable backup/clone before updating/upgrading, using something like Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper!, and ensure that it's bootable and works like the original. That allows you to revert to the previous good state without having to reinstall or reset anything. See these for details:

    If you only have a Time Machine backup, ensure that you can reliably restore it to another disk/volume/partition before updating/upgrading.

  • How to set "Read mode" as default view for a pdf?

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to open a pdf in "Read mode" (to get the floating toolbar) whenever an user open it in Acrobat Reader. Is there anyway to set this option in the pdf like "Open in full screen mode"?
    Or
    Can we add any little javascript to acheive this?
    Or
    Is there any other way to get the floating toolbar and add it into the pdf whenever we require?
    Please help.
    Regards,
    Muthuraj. D

    No. Read Mode is a choice made by the user, nothing in the document can force it to happen.
    There is no scripting or API access to the heads-up-display "floating toolbar".

  • HT5772 How do I delete podcast episodes that I don't want to keep without having them stay in my List view in iTunes and clog it up?  I have some episodes that I've listened to that I want to keep, but others I want to delete.

    Using iTunes on my MacBookPro, I find that when I want to delete selected podcast eisodes, they still stay in my List view with the cloud symbol next to them. I don't want them in my List view. I want them gone. I don't want to download them ever again. I do keep some episodes so I don't want to do the draconian thing and delete all podcast episodes once I've heard them. The other problem I have with trying to delete episodes is that some podcasts then have the same episodes pop back up as though I haven't listened to them. I've deleted a bunch of Science Friday episodes only to have them download again ready to hear. Not only that, but some episodes will finish playing or stop playing in the middle of an episode and a random podcast will start playing. Think! does that. GAH!!
    Does anyone know a workaround? The same nonsense happens in any iTunes view I try.
    <Edited by Host>

    You can delete photos from individual albums but not from the camera roll.  If you try to delete a photo from camera roll it will be deleted from all other albums ("locations") that contain the photo.  This is because the actual photo is in the camera roll (the albums only contain links to the photo in camera roll, not the actual photo).

  • PDF opens in Reader but Reader is not my default viewer

    I have doPDF as one of my printers so I can create a PDF file. In Control Panel Folder Options, my default PDF viewer is set to Foxit. That is what I want. I have Acrobate Reader on my PC for the rare instances I NEED Acrobate Reader. When I select doPDF to create a PDF file, the generated PDF file is opened but it opens in Acrobate Reader instead of Foxit (doPDF opens the newly created file apparently for verification that the PDF was created). Since Foxit is my default viewer, why does the PDF open in Acrobate Reader instead of Foxit? (Neither the Foxit people nor the doPDF people know why).
    BTW... When I select a PDF file in Windows Explorer, it opens in Foxit.
    In advance, Thanks

    In Run type regedit and open following registry path(Second part may differ from machine to machine):
    HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-762979615-2031575299-929701000-XXXXXX\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.pdf
    On the Right panel ,right click and Add "String Value" by the name "Application" and then Modify(Right Click) this "Application" and add Value data as the name of application by which you want open pdf file.Eg. If you want to make Acrobat as your default application ,put Acrobat.exe or put  AcroRd32.exe if you want Reader as your default app. Similarly put the name of corresponding .exe for other pdf Readers you have and you want to make a particular as your default app.For knowing the name of  exe of other Readers, just check in “OpenWithList” just below .pdf(on left).
    I hope it can solve your problem

    Hi raj,
    maintainance view is a nothing but combinations of table using join on some fields..
    see the relation ship between the joins..
    if you want to write selection query ..go to se11 -->enter view name >and open tab>
                    Table/Join  conditions--> see the table's involved and join conditons between tables.
    and write the select query same as like the Table/Join  conditions in se11..now you can acheive the
    table maintainance fields..

  • "I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns. Somewhere I read it could be done in by music icon under Library.  Can't find it.  Thanks

    "I would like to know how to set the default view for the columns that are shown in iTunes. Every time I open it, I have to either go to the options, or right-click to get the pop-up options, and delete "rating" and add "composer." I'd really like to just do it once and be done with it."  Somewhere I read you could do this by clicking on the Music icon under LIBRARY then arramge the columns.  Trouble is, I can't find a Musi Folder or icon in my user library.
    Any help would be appreiated.  OSX 10.9.2  iTunes version 11.1.5  Thanks!!! CW!

    From the iTunes menu bar try View>Show View Options.  Make sure what you want to see is checked and what you don't is unchecked.  You can do this (may need to do this) for any playlists, your main Library, etc.
    Good luck
