How can I make safari automatically open a word/pdf doc after it has been  downloaded?

If I want to open a pdf or word file in safari, the program just downloads the file to the  map downloaded files. I must then manually find the file and click on it to open. In firefox this happens automatically.  Is it possible to make safari do this?
Best Per

Safari can view a PDF file without downloading it to the computer.
Word files can not be opened automatically after download.
Check Safari preference / General tab and look at the bottom of the window.

    Carole,
    If it talks about your password it is probably a scam.
    Take a look in your purchase history and see if there has really been a purchase.

  • Is there a way we can use Acrobat Standard to assign a password for opening of signed PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

    Prior to implementing DocuSign, we used to scan manually signed document to a PDF file and then store the PDF file in a HR file share.  We would then use Adobe Writer Standard to assign a read/write password to the PDF file.  We now use DocuSign to have documents electronically signed and download the DocuSign PDF in our HR folders.  However Adobe Acrobat Writer does not allow us to assign a password.  It pops up a dialog box saying ""you cannot change security on this document because the document is signed or certified".  We want to continue being able to store the PDF in our HR file share with passwords to restrict who can view off the share.  Is there a way we can assign a password to the PDF file once it has been downloaded from DocuSign?

    Thanks Bernd.  We can't assign passwords before signature process starts as people will not be able to open the PDF without knowing the password.  I think we will change our process and simply leave the electronically signed PDF in DocuSign and then "print" the PDF to our local file share for internal HR purposes.  thanks again.

  • How can I make Firefox ask for the master password if the PC has been idle?

    If I leave the browser open it retains all the passwords even if the pc goes into sleep mode.

    how can I make a intro page for my website, then after the intro has run make the page automatically change to my website's home screen

    You can do this using a meta refresh but the problem is you have to add it to the html file for the page very time you publish changes.
    A better way is to create a splash page and upload it to the server outside of the folder produced by iWeb. Example HERE.
    The meta refresh is added to the head section of the html file...
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="32;url=http://www.domain.about.com/Page-Name.html">
    The delay time in seconds is marked in blue and the URL to the redirect page is in red.

    I have tried back ups and  restoring, resetting, and even updating the pages app. And nothing has worked.

    If an image opens in a different application but you want it to always open in Preview when you double-click it, do this one time: Control-click the file, let go of the Control key, press the Option key, then choose Always Open With > Preview. Or, select the image file, choose Get Info from the File menu, then change the "Opens with:" pop-up menu choice to Preview.

    iTunes updates podcasts each hour but won't refresh. When I sync my iPhone, it gets yesterdays podcasts and I have to manually hit refresh to make it update. How can I make it automatically refresh?

    I think figured out what is going on here... If you have set your Windows OS time manually, Apple iTunes will not honor the time you set in Windows XP...
    In my case, I had not applied the Windows update that changes the Daylight savings rules. No big deal I thought... I can easily correct the time manually. Well... iTunes will not like it if you do that. You have to have your daylight savings rules set correctly on the PC. Microsoft has a free program called TZEdit that will let you adjust the DST boundaries.
    Once I set the rules correctly and then set my time keeping back to "Automatic" it fixed it. Hope this helps...

  • How can I enable Safari's ability to display pdf files?

    Hi there,
    In Safari 4.0.3 (MacBook Pro) pdf links open as a dark grey block. That is, instead of the intended text, I see just dark gray.
    Control-click allows me to save the file to the desktop in which case Preview can open them with no problem.

    HI,
    If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader, launch Adobe Reader. From the Menu Bar, click Adobe Reader/Preferences. Select the Internet category...the top option is the one you want. Uncheck the box to make sure Adobe doesn't keep making itself the default reader.
    You might also need to open /Library/Internet Plug-Ins and delete Adobe's PDF viewer plug-in.

  • How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?

    This may not be the correct forum for this question, but considering that I simply
    have not been able to get a reply in any other Adobe forum, I decided
    to just post this question to ALL Adobe forums until I get a response.........
    How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?
    I am using a "Windows 7" computer at work with "Acrobat X Pro" and I'm constantly combining
    pdf's and tiff's in Acrobat.
    It would be nice if when I select 30 or 40 files to combine, the *******
    "Combine Supported Files in Adobe Acrobat" window would open in the
    foreground, not behind the 10 or so windows already open.
    I have been researching this for some time now with no solution.
    If the answer is that "IT CAN'T BE DONE", then that's fine. At least
    I will have an answer and can stop searching. If (as I suspect) it can
    be done, then kindly supply me with "step by step" instructions.

    Hi ,
    I guess that was a bug in that version .
    It does not happen in Acrobat XI and Acrobat DC .The window comes right in front of everything else .
    I wonder that was a bug and that was fixed the other versions.
    You could upgrade to the latest Acrobat version ,i.e Acrobat DC and you would not experience this anymore .

  • How to forbid any further changes for PO (QTY and price ) after it has been

    Hi,
    How to forbid any further changes for PO (QTY and price ) after it has been done GR and LIV? Thanks.

    Hi,
    Price anyway cannot be changed once GR is posted on the PO item, it can be changed only by cancelling the GR, the same applies to IR too.
    But quantity can be changed at any time.
    So if you are looking at blocking qty too, then a customized message through save exit is the option, I am not aware of any standard SAP messages that can be configured to achieve this..
