Downloading *.pdf files often hang before the download finishes. Help!

For example, I have tried to down:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf
multiple times and it downloads for several minutes then just stops showing any activity and hangs. I have repeated this 5 times so far with the same result each time.

Sorry, no, this did not help. I cannot recommend doing this. As a result, pdfs are no longer displayed at all in Safari!!
I had found a different solution, though, in the meantime. In the dark grey toolbar that appears at the bottom of a pdf window in Safari once you mouse over the spot, there is this adobe symbol which looks like a windmill. if you click on it, the adobe reader toolbars appear at the top of the browser window. if you click THAT save button there, it works just fine.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    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 launch Safari and test.
    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.

    I am getting messages that I can't download and read .pdf files since I have the wrong Adobe reader. I know about their security disasters of course, but I downloaded the latest version of Adobe Reader from the Adobe web site and I have other ,pdf file readers as well, and for some reason they won't work either. I have 5 computers running top end processors and RAM. By this I mean I have one, this one which I am using that has an AMD Phenom Black 3.2 Quad-core with 8 GBs of Corsair top DDR2 RAM, my other two AMD have either an Athlon II triple core with 4 GBs of DDR2 Corsair RAM, one with the Phenom X4 965 3.4 GHz Quad-core with 8 GBs of their best DDR2 RAM, and two Intels with the i7 920 Processors using the triple channel 1366 socket processors and one with 8 GBs of low latency DDR3 RAM and the other with 4 GBs of the same RAM. I am getting the message on this one, which has a fresh install of XP Pro X64 operating system, as do the other 4 as well. I have run Avast Business Pro Anti-virus on this one, which I am getting the message on with a single result which I deleted, and also both Spybot Search and Destroy, which came back clean as well as Malwarebytes Antimalware, which got a lot of tracing cookies now removed, and SuperAntiSpware which also found a few cookies also now deleted. Can you tell me what I need to do to get these files to show as .pdf files rather than as a clean blank page. One other issue is that I wish to know how to turn off my downloads so they are saved and Mozilla will give me the option of returning them instead of me losing them all together as it does now. Thanks for your assistance. If there is another Adobe reader I should download and install, could you provide me with the link to it? I appreciate your assistance here

    Brilliant! Problem solved! Thanks so much.

    Part of the problem in helping is likely that there is no program Adobe -- that is the company name. You are in the Acrobat forum, but it sounds like you have subscribed to Export PDF or such, a different program. The subscription to Acrobat is currently $19.99 per month.

  • The Downloaded PDF file does not contain the Signature through BSP pages

    HI,
    We have an requirement for Distributing the FORM 16 to all Employee's through our Website, where the user will login and download his own FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate)
    This FORM 16 ( TDS Certificate ) is generated in SAP ( ECC 6.0 ) in Payroll Module.
    To satisfy the above requirement we have done the following steps.
    1) First we have modified the standards SAP Sapscript(Layout) to incorporate the Signature of Authorised Payroll Person. 
    We have done this by uploading the BMP file ( though t-code SE78 ) and then calling this file in the Standards layout which prints the FORM 16 document.
    2) WE also Modifed the Dirver program to Download the above document in a .PDF  file. 
    The Program creates the seperate file for each employee and assigns the employee number as a file name to each downloaded file. These all files are downloaded on a Users Machine.
    We opened the Downloaded .PDF files, and checked for the Signatures. The Signature were comming perfect as it ws uploaded.
    3) We uploaded these all FORM 16 PDF file off all emlpoyee's to a different SERVER ( BW 7.0 ). With the help of BASIS person, using the FTP utility.
    4) We wrote a BSP program to download this ulploaded PDF Files.
    BUT we are facing a PROBLEM in the DOWNLOADED PDF file.
    The Downloaded file does not contain the Signature which is there is the Original file we uploded this server.
    All other data in the dowloaded PDF file is Perfect other than the Signature.
    When we open the downlaoded PDF file it give's following  message on the Signautre page.
    " Xobject not found named 00013"
    The number of the Object comes different to different files.
    We are using Function module 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING' to Convert string to Xstring
    We are using the the " CALL METHOD CL_BSP_UTILITY=>DOWNLOAD" for downloading the PDF file.
    Please suggest some solution if you can
    Thanks in advnace.

  • I have a site with m4v files that played before the upgrade to 10.6.7, now just sound

    I have a site with m4v files that played before the upgrade to 10.6.7, now when accessed the sound plays but no video. Is there a different file type I should create or is this a glitch w/this version? Played before & still plays-Mac b4UG-PC/Iphone/Ipad.
    Page Link: http://www.myfarrah.com/My_Farrah_Actress.php
    You can click the video link to play or...
    Video Link: http://www.myfarrah.com/ACT7.php
    Code:
    <table width="444px" border="0" cellpadding="0" align="left"><object width="444" height="285" border="0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.myfarrah.com/bbed/bb2.m4v"></param><embed src="http://www.myfarrah.com/bbed/bb2.m4v" type="application/movie" width="444" height="285" border="0"></embed></object><p>   

    Are you using Safari or Firefox? It runs as expected in Firefox, but in Safari I too get just the sound, and going to the m4v link causes the movie to download rather than play (it downloads fine and plays in Quicktime once downloaded). I checked some of my own m4v movies, and they were playing fine in Safari. For one embedded in a complex web page, see here:
    http://www.pinkmutant.com/articles/snowleo.html
    The next m4v has its very own very simple page, with the movie called using an embed tag with various options set (you can see the details by going to View->View Source)  and also plays:
    http://homepage.mac.com/francines/Movies/duomo.html
    There was a problem with a Safari plug-in misbehaving very early in Snow Leopard, but I no longer remember the details. But see this archived discussion:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2158092?start=0&tstart=0
    It was a rather complex problem, but I had thought one of the updates fixed it.

  • How do I save PDF files by default to the folder of the source file?

    How do I save PDF files by default to the folder of the source file with Acrobat 9.0.0 Standard?

    I am not seeing that behaviour. If I right-click a link to a .pdf file, I get the file saved with the original filename.
    Maybe one of the settings in about:config controls that?
    pdfjs.previousHandler.preferredAction is a setting that has a value of 4 with my setup. I have no idea what that means, and I could not find any explanation anywhere. You could try using different numbers for that value and see if any make any difference. Why has nobody bothered to explain that setting anywhere?

  • The new updated version of iMovie 10 won't let me open my previous files I created before the update today. I have a wedding that I'm trying to finish and deliver and now I can't because that file version won't open. I keep getting an error message

    Hello,
    Please help me figure this out. I'm very unhappy at the moment. I'm fustrated and don't have any idea how to revert to the original version before the update was done on iMovie 10. I NEVER hated APPLE until NOW!! I love APPLE products and apps so please help me stay in that mindset. So I worked on some movie projects when I got my macbook pro 6 months ago. I update reguarly. I saw the update prompt and honestly, I did not think I would have ANY issuess with opening my previous files that I created only a few months ago with this updated version.The new updated version of iMovie 10 won't let me open my previous files I created before the update today. I have a wedding that I'm trying to finish and deliver and now I can't because that file version won't open. I keep getting an error message and the iMovie app closes. Last night I saw the file and tried to open it but no luck. Error message came up again. I reboot and turned off my laptop for the evening and tried again just now but nothing!! I need that video. My job depends on it! I worked so hard on this wedding video and now it's lost and won't open. I work another job and don't have much time. I really don't want to start all over again. Please help me. Thanks so much for your assistance.

    I also have Jolly's problem. I found the iMovie 9.0.9 folder and tried to launch the older version of iMove. It would not launch. I removed all of the iMovie preferences from the Preferences folder, removed iMove 10 from the applications folder, and restarted my Mac. iMove 9.0.9 still won't launch and I can't access my videos created with the older version of iMovie. Is there a way to uninstall iMovie 10 and reinstall iMovie 9.0.9?

  • How can i create a hyperlink annotation on a pdf file using preview? the tool is removed from the toolbar

    It seems that the tool to create an hyperlink on a pdf file is removed from the toolbar!

    In order to initiate printing by clicking a button, the button has to have either an "execute menu item" type action or use the "print" JavaScript method. As you guessed, the former won't work since there are no menu items to execute, and the latter can only work if the particular PDF viewer you're using supports it. I'm not aware of any that do on iOS.
    The button doesn't appear because you're probably opening it in the default PDF viewer, which doesn't support forms at all. If you were to open the form in Adobe Reader, you'd see the button but it wouldn't work.
