How do I get safari to open a pdf in window.

How do I get safari to open a pdf in the browser window. A while ago I turned it off by typing  defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -boolean yes   into the terminal. Basically how do I undo that command

Then do a "get info" on it (Apple Key with the letter "i" key)
Select the "Open With" Box
Change it to "Preview"
Then select the box just beneath it
"Change All."
This should set your PDF's to be read with Preview.

    How do I get Safari to open first to a particular web site?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    You have to choose that site as the homepage. To do that, open Safari, go to Safari menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > General, and change the homepage by the one you want, so every time you open Safari, that website will show

    Right click the FireFox button in your toolbar and look in the properties- middle tab...make sure that it only has "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" with no other link added to the end. I had a similar problem this morning and found a website had attached it's link to the end so it would always pop up first and would only open a new tab.
    Hope that fixed it.

  • How do I get Safari to open in Preview?

    I am using Safari 5.0.5; have downloaded Adobe latest version; checked on Adobe preferences/internet to use Adobe. But from Safari PDF files will not open. Get a black screen with no content. How do I get Preview to open PDFs from Safari and thereby avoid this problem. Interesting issue -- this only occurs on iMac with Snow Leopard; my MacBook Air, not using Snow Leopard, opens Adobe from Safari.

    Hi
    If you want pdf's opening in Safari, using the built-in support (not Adobe) then quit open browsers, go to HD/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ & remove any 'pdf' plugins. Occasionally, they're in Home/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    If you really want Adobe to do it in browser, and the plugin is in place already - try opening Safari in 32 bit mode. Command-click it in the dock, then File-Get Info, & check the 32 bit box. Takes effect the next time Safari is started up.

  • How do I get safari to open pop-ups in new tabs rather than in new windows?

    Just recently I took my 13" MacBook Pro (Late 2010 Model) to my local Apple Store. When I brought it there they fixed my problem, but in the mean time they had to completely delete and uninstall Safari and Google Chrome off of my laptop. Before the apple store, my Safari would always open pop-ups and links in a new tab, now they open up in a new window. Does anyone know how to change it so they open in new tabs? The reason I need this changed is I might have unecessary websites open, and they would just be taking up space.
    Thanks for your help,

  • How do I get Safari to open on a specific desktop by default?

    I have recently upgraded to Mavericks, I have a TV display connected to my iMac which is not always switched on at the same time as my iMac (I use it for streaming onto a big screen). I have noticed that by default the Safari Application opens in 'Desktop 2' which is my TV display. Is there a way to open Safari on 'Desktop 1' (which is my iMac desktop) automatically? I understand that I could just unplug the HDMI from my iMac but this will become a hassle eventually. Also the TV is not directly next to my iMac so dragging windows from screen to screen can be awkward. So to clarify, my question is:
    With my TV display connected, is there a way to open Safari on 'Desktop 1' (my iMac desktop) by default?

    Wow, I dont have that option at all - nothing below the line under 'show in finder', what can I do?
    My TV screen is definitely connected as I can mirror on/off and choose from Samsung/iMac.
    I've also tried:
    resetting the dock
    disconnecting the display
    google searching for answers

  • How do I get Safari to open with homepage

    If I quit Safari with a single or multiple pages open, the next time I open Safari all the pages come back, the pages that were open when I quit the application.
    Even though in preferences I have a homepage selected it doesn't seem to matter.

    Hold down SHIFT when you click safari to open.

  • How do i get safari to open to home page

    after update to Lion, whenever i open Safari, it opens to the last page or tabs viewed rather than my home page.  The only work around i've found is to close the browser windows before quitting.  By doing that, Safari will open in homepage.  If i just quit safari, it will not.

    Hello:
    Go to system preferences>general.  Uncheck "restore windows when quitting and reopening apps."
    Note that this is a global change - for Safari and everything else.

  • How to get SAFARI to open as a FULL WINDOW Screen

    Hey there people.
    Please help. How do I open Safari and get it to fill the whole screen rather than just the middle. I've looked up preferences and general appearances but nothing seems to indicate full screen. It's annoying as I cannot see the full webpage and having to scroll to the right all the time.
    Thanks in advance.
    Joanna

    Hi Joanna,
    Sadly, Safari doesn't offer full screen as a standard option. You can get Saft (http://haoli.dnsalias.com/Saft/index.html), an extension (shareware) for Safari, that will allow you to do fullscreen with Safari and add many other options to it.
    If you don't feel like paying anything for fullscreen, you can get Firefox 2 (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/) and eventually get the much faster and better Firefox 3 (that will be release in the coming months).
    P.S.: Next time, try posting in the right category of the forum, hence Safari. You'll get a faster answer. (http://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa?categoryID=1)

  • How do I get Safari to open a window both full screen and large?

    OS 10.8.5
    Safari 6.1.1
    When I open a new page in Safari it is only half the screen wide and when I fill the screnn the image is still smal so I command +, three times.  Is there a way to make this my default?

    Then do a "get info" on it (Apple Key with the letter "i" key)
    Select the "Open With" Box
    Change it to "Preview"
    Then select the box just beneath it
    "Change All."
    This should set your PDF's to be read with Preview.

  • How do I get Safari to open at the home page?

    In Lion Safari 5.1 starts with the last page viewed. Can I switch this to starting with the Home Page, as it did with earlier OSs?

    In Safari preferences General tab set the option to Open New windows with Homepage. If that alone doesn't work go to System preferences General Pane and toward the bottom of the pane you'll see Restore Windows when quitting and reopening apps. Uncheck that. That should do it for you but there is an issue with this in Lion and for some this didn't work. After doing all this restarting the computer may help. If not wait for an update.

  • How do I get firefox to open a pdf in adobe instead of the new pdf reader?

    Before the recent update, 19.0, I would google something and see [PDF] next to a link. I click the middle mouse button to open it in a new tab. Firefox would download the file and open it with Adobe Reader. I like this.
    With the new update 19.0, the pdf file would be opened in the new tab. I have to go and down load it and then open it in Adobe. I don't like this.
    I go into preferences under applications. I look to see if I can change this. Next to Adobe Reader document, I choose Use Adobe Reader, but when I click on a [PDF] link, it still opens the file in Firefox and not Adobe.
    I want it back to the way it was.

    You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer and use the Adobe Reader instead.

  • How do i get firefox to open with the same window size every time, even if the last instance I had open had a different window size because I resized it??

    My firefox opens new windows with a size that equals the current window I have open, or if I have no window open, the last window I closed. I would like to have it open windows the same size every time, regardless of what size the current window is, or what size the last window I closed was. I cannot find a setting or addin to do this anywhere. I have resizer which lets me change the size, but it is annoying that I can't have a default size for windows being opened. I open windows in new windows, not tabs.

    Open link/bookmark in new tab in same window:
    *Middle-click (press the mouse scroll wheel) the link
    *Ctrl+left click the link
    *right-click the link, choose "Open Link in New Tab"
    Open link/bookmark in new window:
    * Shift+Enter on the link
    * Shift+left click on the link
