How do I make Acrobat 9 Pro my default pdf app?

I used to have this set until an upgrade of the OS or ... when I installed Acrobat 9 Pro??
I am still running OS 10.5.8, though will upgrade to SL soon.
Anyway, I can't figure out how to make Acrobat my default instead of Preview when I:
1) open a pdf file on the web, or
2) double click on a generic pdf (such as one sent as an email attachment), or
3) export to Acrobat from Apple's Pages
Any suggestions would be REALLY appreciated!
Thanks

  • How do I make Adobe Reader my default PDF app.?

    Hey everybody. I haven't been around lately. Hope all are well!
    I'm trying to figure out how to make Adobe the default PDF viewer instead of Preview.
    Any ideas?
    I posted this in the Panther room, but figured I'd get a quicker response here!

    Thanks Allan.
    Good to see the usual gang is still here. Sorry for being such a stranger. I'll try and stick my head in a little more often.
    I'm still using my old beige with all the ease in the world. It's like nothing ever goes wrong anymore. I did have a little directory clutter not long ago that even gave Disk Warrior a hard time, but I prevailed in the end! This machine is so awesome.
    I never did make it out west. Right as I was ready to do it, gas went to $3.00 a gal. That killed that idea. Maybe sometime soon.
    Take care, Al

  • Acrobat Pro as Default PDF Reader

    How can I make Acrobat Pro my default PDF reader, I am using a Mac and whenever I open a pdf it opens it in the Mac OS's 'Preview' software instead of Acrobat Pro

    Select any PDF, Ctrl + click on "Mac", and select Adobe Reader under "Open With" option. Once the PDF opens with Reader, you will see an option to set it as default application to open PDF.

    How can I make Acrobat Pro XI open by default to thumbnails view (Pages Panel & Pages) without changing the properties on every single pdf?

    Not possible. This is a file-specific setting, not an application-wide
    setting.

  • How do I make Adobe Reader my default PDF reader ?

    Hi im trying to open PDF  a file from a website , but unable as it has to be adobe viewer how can I make adobe my default reader ?
    Thanks Davie

    Davie,
    My question would be why would you want to have Acrobat as the default view? Preview comes with OS X and opens PDF documents just fine. However if you must then select any pdf on the computer then type Command I (I as in Ivan) to get the information window on the document. Next chose Adobe View under Open With and click Change All.

  • How do I make I Photo my default photo app?

    I would love to delete Photos off my computer so I don't have to have it but I won't let me do that!
    You cannot delete Photos, because it is part of the basic system installation, just like Mail or Calendar.
    Just remove the Photos icon from the Dock and drag iPhoto from the Applications folder to the Dock instead.
    To remove an application from the Dock ctrl-click the icon and click "Options". Select "Remove from Dock" or disable "Keep in Dock".  Then you will not see it any longer.

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

    How do you make "Acrobat X Pro" 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 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.
    Michael Jones

    Something that works  (provides Acrobat the application precedence in the OS that is requisite for this) --
    Minimize the 10 or so application windows before engaging use of Acrobat's "combine".
    That'll let the Acrobat dialog windows display front and center.
    Be well...

  • How Can I Make Acrobat Not Resize Images?

    I am trying to turn around 80 images into the pages of a PDF file. The pictures are saved as JPEGs and have the exact dimensions I want them to have as pages of a PDF. When I turn them into a PDF in Acrobat Pro 9 they get resized so when viewed at 100% the text looks like crap. I want to know how I can make Acrobat not mess with the dimensions of my pictures when turning them into a PDF. I make the PDF by clicking the Create button and selecting Merge Files into a Single PDF... . I then drag and drop the pictures into the window and click Combine Files. I have tried all three of the File Size settings and all of them turn out wrong. How can I make this expensive program work the way I want it to by doing htis simple thing right?
    I have attached two files, the first of one of the images that will make a page viewed in windows picture and fax viewer at the original size. The second is a screen shot of the messed up PDF with blurry text, viewed at 100%. I want the text in the second picture to look just like the text in the first.

    I am not trying to justify Adobe's choice, just an explanation of what may have happened. When one asks for 100%, there is a question of by pixel, by inches (cm), or by size on the screen. These are interpretations and the fact that MS and Adobe interpret them differently is not surprising. However, I think that what you are seeing is a result of the pixel display issues on the screen and with proper sizing, they should appear the same (at least I think). In Acrobat, there is also a smoothing feature under the display preferences that may be an issue and is related to how it extrapolates for the pixels.

  • How do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file

    how do i make adobe reader my default to open any pdf file?

    What is your current default?  If Adobe Acrobat (X or XI), you can set it in your preferences.
    If it's another program, reinstalling or repairing Adobe Reader will set it to the default program.

  • How to remove file path location listings from photos and objects in Acrobat Pro 9.0 PDF?

    After converting a windows-based Powerpoint 2007 presentation to an Acrobat Pro 9.0 PDF, the file path location of all photos and objects are shown in a dialogue box when the cursor is moved over the image as seen in this screenshot below. How can I stop this from happening and remove this feature on my pdf documents? 

    I saw that referenced on a forum, but it does not seem to address the issue I am having.
    As per Adobe Acrobat X Standard * What’s new, the equivalent to the "Tools > Protection > Remove Hidden Information" utility found in Acrobat X Standard is the same as the "Document > Examine Document" feature in Acrobat Pro 9.0. Those tools seem to cover meta data, book marks, hidden text, and deleted or cropped content, but not the file path listings that appear on images and objects converted from Powerpoint presentations and other MS Office programs.
    I have reviewed the settings used while creating a pdf, and have also tried the “Advanced > Preflight tool”, but could not find anything to apply to the issue at hand.
    Thus, this issue has not been resolved, but seems like it should be an easy fix that anyone who publishes pdf documents would want to use to publish clean, professional documents without anyone seeing the file path location of every object and image shown in the document on their hard drive.
