  • How do I set up my default viewer to view pdf annotations or how to I change my default pdf viewer to Goodreader?

    When I open a pdf it doesn't show any of it's annotations, comments, etc that someone else may have done on that file.  How do I get iPad's default pdf viewer to show the annotations or how do I change my default pdf viewer to Goodreader?

  • How do I change the default PDF viewer on my iPad so I can easily see annotations?

    I keeping missing annotations on PDF because the built-in iPad Mail viewer does not show annotations.  To limit the keystrokes, instead of  using "open with" on each PDF email attachment to view in a third part app, I'd like to just change the mail default viewer. Is that possible with the current iPad operating systems?

    No it is not possible to change the default pdf viewer in mail.

  • 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".

  • How do I change my default PDF viewer in Safari?

    I recently downloaded Acrobat Reader. Ever since, when I have opened PDF files on the internet, they have opened in Acrobat. How on earth do I switch the default back to Preview, or the regular Safari pdf viewer? I don't want to view my internet PDF's in acrobat because it takes forever to load them and it is extremely cumbersom for my purposes.

    To remove Acrobat as your PDF reader, go to your User Library>Internet Plug-in Folder. There you'll see the Acrobat plug-in. Click on it, then "command key + delete" will move it to the trash. Note: If your Plug-ins are used for more than one user account, you'll find them in the same folder I mentioned, however, they will be in the Main Library.
    While Preview is an option for PDF viewing, I prefer PDF Browser Plugin. It's free for personal use. Quick and easy to use, I think you'll like it.

  • How can I change my default PDF viewer and other things

    Hello,
    I am using Iceweasel 3.6.16 on Debian Stable (currently Squeeze) and the download Manager in Firefox (it should be the default one though I have the All-in-One Sidebar installed) always wants to open PDF files with the foxit reader. I don't know when it happened, how or why but everytime I click on a pdf file in the download manager it tries to open it with the foxit reader using wine, same thing happens with txt (he's trying to open them with notepad, using wine).
    Now when I download pdfs I don't have a problem because I use the PDF Downloader and I set it to use okular when I want to open a pdf but once it's downloaded and I want to open it using the sidebar on the left it uses the foxit reader. So my question would be where I can specifiy what program I want to certain files.
    When I go to Edit -> Preferences -> Applications and to PDF Document it says under Action "Always ask" and changing that to okular doesn't solve the problem.

  • How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI?

    How can I change the default pdf reader from the installed (but not yet registered) Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro to Adobe Reader XI? I'm having some hiccups getting Adobe to register the software, but since I set it as the default .pdf reader during setup, things try (and fail) to open in the as yet unregistered software. How can I change it temporariiy to the Acrobat Reader XI that I have installed?

    Anubha,
    It worked! Thank you so much.
    I'd opened file with the 'Open with' feature then clicking Adobe Reader,
    but that didn't do it. When I used 'Open with', then 'Choose default
    program...', it worked like a charm.
    Again, thank you!

  • How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?

    How can I reset the DEFAULT zoom view in Firefox at 125%, like IE, so I don't have to reset it every time ?
    I have seen this question asked previously and it seems there is no answer.
    I know that one can change each individual web page (that reset defaults back to 100%) and, alternatively and apparently one can load an add-on to fix the default size at Full Zoom.
    ... But any hints on how to achieve a DEFAULT 125% zoom would be much appreciated.

    Press CTRL + 0
    Have you tried Firefox's zoom feature? Font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages
    You can "zoom" all sites using this add-on: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2592/ NoSquint]. After setting your global zoom level, you can still fine-tune the zoom on individual sites.
    After installing NoSquint, click the % on the Add-on Bar to call up site preferences, then click the Global Settings button, then the Zooming tab.
    If you don't have the Add-on Bar displayed, you can right-click the new tab button ("+") or a blank area of the tab bar to the right of it and choose Add-on Bar from the shortcut menu.
    You can experiment with sizes larger than 125%, but I wouldn't go much higher than 150% unless you have a large high-resolution monitor.
    If there are particular sites that still present a problem, feel free to post their URLs.
    You can find more information about the zoom features Firefox offers in these articles:
    [[Text zoom]] - For zooming text only
    [[Page zoom]] - For zooming the whole page (including images etc.)

  • Changing iPad default PDF viewer to Goodreader

    How do you change iPad default viewer, to something like Goodreader?

    As far as I know, you can't. You have to tell it to "open in Goodreader" every time. If someone else knows differently, please let me know. Thanks.

  • 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

  • How do I change my default browser on my MBP back to Safari?

    I made the mistake of changing my default browser to Google Chrome on my MBP. I have it on my Dad's Dell, only cause I updated that to Windows 7 and needed to update the browser settings on that. That change on my MBP transfered the Norton & MaFee as well.
    Now it won't let me change back to Safari. I'm not thrilled with 'data sharing'and 'data mining' aspects of Chrome.
    My MBP is using 10.9.1 Mavericks.
    How do I change my default browser back to Safari from Google Chrome?

    Open Safari, then go to Preferences. You can change the default browser in those settings.

  • How do I change the default paper size in Firefox if Printer Properties does nothing?

    I print on different including a receipt printer with roll paper.
    I had to reset Firefox yesterday because of a bug, and then changed the Printer Properties to be able to print again in the right format on the receipt paper. But now everything I print from Firefox (even when I change the paper size to Letter on the Printer properties for the regular printer) is in the receipt paper format (long and narrow.) When I do Print Preview, I can see that the paper looks like the roll paper, even if I'm trying to print on letter size.
    I tried resetting both printers with about:config, I tried changing in the printer properties for both printers and nothing works.
    Is there a way to change the default paper size in Firefox?

    Hello,
    My understanding is that Firefox uses the global printer settings. I am not familiar with the Windows 8 interface, but can you change the printer settings in its Devices and Printers and see if it changes the default for Firefox as well?
