How do I deactivate Adobe Reader in Safari?

Hi all.
I am using Mountain Lion. I occasionally want to use Adobe but not as a default program to view PDFs in Safari. The standard way out of this seems to change the corresponding Option in Adobe Reader. However, when I go to Adobe Reader-Preferences-Internet I see a checkbox "Display PDF in browser using:" which I cannot uncheck (it is shaded in gray in contrast to checkable boxes which are blue).
Thanks.
Florian

What do you have anything in your Home Library/Internet Plug-Ins Folder? Mine is empty.
Delete the AdobePDFViewer.plugin in your Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins Folder.

  • How do I remove Adobe Reader from Safari

    Last week, I downloaded an updated version of Adobe Reader. I did not select it as my Safari pdf reader. Nonetheless, it has replaced Preview as the default pdf reader in Safari. How do I get rid of Adobe Reader as the default pdf reader in Safari and replace it with Preview?

  • How can I deactivate Adobe photoshop elements 9 when its un-installed?

    How can I deactivate Adobe photoshop elements 9 when its un-installed? I told my husband I had to get it off the third computer but he trying to help me did not deactivate it before he  un-installed it!!!!
    Now what? I am only using this on 2 computers and I'm told I am using it on a 3rd and I'm not.
    How can I fix this?
    It wont work on the 3rd one anyway because its so old and limited it crashes every time I try. But I need this on my 2 good computers.

    One way could be to reinstall it on the third computer and then deactivate it and uninstall it.
    If that doesn't work out or if you'd rather try this route it should work... contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone and they should be able to help.  Chat is usually 24/7
    Here are some links to help make contact:

    How do i deactivate adobe design and web premium cs6 so that I can use the cd key to a different computer?

    To deactivate you normally only need to open one of the programs in the suite and select Help -> deactivate.  You are allowed to have activated installations on two machines, so if you only have the one now you can keep it as a backup if you like.

  • How do I disable Adobe Reader from opening pdfs?

    how do I disable Adobe Reader from opening pdfs in Safari? I tried unchecking the box for opening pdfs in browser under Adobe's Internet prefs, but that didn't seem to work.

    Hello-
    I actually saw a solution to this earlier today. To disable PDF viewing in safari, first quit safari, then open terminal, and type in this command:
    defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES
    To re-enable PDF viewing in safari simply open the terminal, and change the "YES" in the command above to a "NO"
    Hope this helps.

  • How do i install adobe reader without installing products from google.

    i dont like google, i dont like a bunch of worthless taskbars crowding my browser. so how do i install adobe reader without installing google products when you dont even give me the chance to say i dont want them?
    It is unethical to force onto people products of any nature that they do not want. i do not want google products so by your installation for adobe reader automatically installing google products without my consent is unethical.

    I don't understand the "forcing" part; the bundled software is clearly optional, and can be unchecked before the download.
    Or using the download link that Michael provided earlier (which is posted at least a dozen times every day in this forum).

  • How do I install Adobe REader? Their instructions for Firefox say to "Click on the 'Edit Options' button in the yellow bar at the top" but there is no yellow bar or 'Edit Options' button.

    How do I download Adobe Reader 9 in Firefox? Their instructions say to begin by clicking on the 'Edit Options' button on the yellow bar at the top. I have no such bar or button on my Firefox start page.
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == About 1/2 hour ago.

    The instructions on the Adobe site are outdated and do no longer apply to current Firefox versions and you can ignore those instructions and save the Adobe installer to your desktop and start the installation with a double-click on that file.

  • How do i install adobe reader on a flash drive?????

    how do i install adobe reader on a flash drive?

    I don't know if this will work; it will certainly not create a "portable" Adobe Reader.
    But it may install on the flash driver, to be used only on the computer that installed it.
    Download and run the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/
    On the Reader setup panel, click on 'Change Destination Folder' and select your flash drive.
    Let us know how that goes; I am curious...

  • How do I  transfer adobe reader from a desk top computer to a laptop

    how do i transfer adobe reader from my desk top to a new lap top?

    You move it as you would move any other data files or documents; nothing special about PDF files.
    Easiest way is to copy them to a memory stick.
    Another way is to upload them to Files or Workspaces at Acrobat.com
