How do I change my settings for opening a PDF file?

Currently I can't just OPEN a PDF file I must save it and then I can access it. It once got saved accidentally to automatically save instead of opening straight. In some cases though it cannot be viewed this way. How do change it to open straight?

To change from using the built-in PDF viewer to your PDF reader plugin:
From the Firefox menu choose Tools>Options
Select the Applications panel.
Find Portable Document Format (PDF) in the list and click on it to select it.
Click on the drop-down arrow in the Action column for the above entry and select Use PDF reader name (in Firefox).

    I am sorry but this isn't something that you can set. The system has timeouts built into the code.

  • How do I get Adobe Acorbat to open a .pdf file from a sharepoint library without having to checkout the file

    I have a customer that is using Adobe Acrobat pro version 10.1. When they try and open a .pdf file from a SharePoint site, the user is prompted to check out and open the file or open the file. Is there a way to get Adobe Acrobat to open the .pdf file without prompting to check out or open?
    Thanks
    Jim

    This is mostly a lion thing, rather than a PSE thing. To disable applications opening where they left off last time for all the programs on your computer, go to system preferences>general and untick this box:
    You can also do on a per-program basis, but it's more complicated and the best thing to do is to search around for directions on the web and see which way is least uncomfortable for you.
    There's an odd little glitch in PSE that it opens the last image you had open, even if you closed it before quitting last time. Adobe says this is correct behavior, but of course it isn't.

  • How do I change the settings for security on a specific website?

    I was on the CVS Photo website and I went to the Image Upload page and a box popped up asking for permission to access my computer files for the upload (I think that is what it said.) I accidentally hit Deny and now I can't upload my pictures. I don't know how to undo what I did or change the settings. Please help!

    You can check the about:config page for a capability.principal pref related to that website.
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location bar and do a search for <i>capability.principal</i> via the Filter at the top of the about:config page.<br />
    You can reset a <i>capability.principal</i> capability.principal that is related to that website via the right-click context menu to their default values.
    To open the <i>about:config</i> page, type <b>about:config</b> in the location (address) bar and press the "<i>Enter</i>" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.<br />
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.<br />
    *Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
    *Preferences that have been modified show as bold(user set).
    *Preferences can be reset to the default or changed via the right-click context menu.

  • How to save changes to settings for photos in an iPhoto slideshow?

    How can I save the settings to individual slides in an iPhoto slideshow?  I followed the instructions for changing the zoom and pan, but when I exit iPhoto an relaunch it the settings revert to some default.  Help!

    Try this:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.

  • How can i change authentication settings for existing account?

    I have an email account from my work server that i have set up as a pop account in Mail. The problem is that the settings have recently been changed on the server and on other accounts but I cant find the same options in the preferences of mail.
    What I need to change is requiring authentication on the outgoing mail server (smtp) of username and password. I can find no checkox in preferences enabling this. Our internet provider suggested creating a new account, as in account setup it is possible to check a box for requiring authentication.
    If at all possible i would like to keep my existing account.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to how i can do this?
    Thankyou!

    In Mail, Preferences>Accounts. Select the account in question. At the bottom of the pane on the right of the list of accounts you will see 'Outgoing mail server (SMTP)' where your server details can be entered: underneath this is a button called 'server settings'. Click on this and you can set 'Authentication' to 'password' if neccesary, and enter/change the password for outgoing mail.
