How do I select preview as my default viewer while in Safari?

I had to download Adobe in order to download a certain file, it is now set up as my defauly viewer. When I try to download files off my school website it will no longer view the file. It used to come up with preview and then I had the options to zoom, print or save. I want it back that way and have looked through both the Safari and Preview prefrences and I cannot figure out how to switch Preview back to my defualt. I've tried the Command + I trick on PDF's I have already downloaded and it works for that, but not in Safari.

Remove Adobe plug ins.

How do i Restore Preview as my default viewer when using Safari,seems adobe has hi jacked Safari,if i uninstall adobe safari will not open any pdf files.

How do i restore Preview as my default viewer.
Seems adobe has hi-jacked Safari and and opens using abobe not preview.
Have uninstalled adobe but safari then will not display any pdf files.
Preview still works fine to view existing downloaded files.

Niac --
What kind of files? PDFs? or Others as well?
If you want Preview to open all PDFs, then find a PDF on your HD.
Highlight it, and then press the Apple/Comand key along with th letter " i " key.
When the window comes up, look down to the "Open with" line, and change it from Adobe to Preview.
Then look slightly below, and select "Change All."
Now, all PDFs should open with Preview.

How can I regain Preview as my default PDF browser in Safari?

Hi, everyone...to make a long story short, I recently installed an update to Adobe Reader only to discover that it somehow took over my PDF viewing in Safari from Preview. I wanted to try and get Preview back as my default Safari PDF browser, but no luck. I trashed Reader and went into Library to trash the Adobe Internet plug-in as well. After I did that, I tried to reopen a PDF in Safari only to discover that I now can't open ANY PDF in Safari and I can't figure out how to make Preview the default reader again. I right-clicked a PDF in my computer and went under "Get Info" to try and change Preview to my default reader, but I can't figure out ANYTHING on how to regain my prior Preview default. I'm frustrated like CRAZY! I have Safari 5.1.5 and Preview 5.5.1. I would really appreciate some help on this!

Hi,
I also installed Adobe Reader because an ebook I downloaded wouldn't open without it.
I then chose Adobe Reader as my default. When I later uninstalled it using the Trash Me app-which usually clears everything out-I couldn't get Preview back as the default.
I went to the "Library/Internet plug-ins" path and trashed the two Adobe Reader plug ins that were there. I used Secure Empty Trash, and then shut down completely and did not check the box to reopen any windows. Then I restarted the Mac.
I not only shut down Safari, I closed all applications and shut down the Mac completely being sure to uncheck the "relaunch with windows open" button. When I turned the Mac back on, I opened Safari and went to an online PDF that I had been trying to open previously to test the app. It opened this PDF using Preview and showed it in Safari.
I then tested using a PDF from my files and it opened in Preview.
Quit Safari.
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type of copy / paste: /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Click Go then move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin from the Internet Plug-Ins folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari to test.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page.

When printing a list in Address Book, how can I select more than the default Attributes and keep them selected when I print again? I want to print ALL information for contacts so I have email address, notes, phone, company, title, etc all on one page. I don't want to have to check off an additional 5 or 6 attributes each time I print out contact information. Is there a way to change the default setting for printing lists, so it is not just "phone," "photo," and "job title?"

I have a user who wants to do this same thing. I did not find any way either to default the attributes to anything other than what you see the first time. Seems like such a trivial thing, hard to believe they do not allow it. I did find a program for this called iDress but I can't seem to download it from any links on the Internet. Not sure if it is free or not, but it was recommended by a link on the Mac support site.

That depends on what you mean. If you mean two iTunes Store accounts, no. Only one Apple ID can be logged into the iTunes Store at a time and if automatic download, iTunes Match or re-downloading of content is used the ID can not be changed for 90 days.

If you previously had been using the same Apple ID for iTunes Store purchases for both of you there is no reason to change what you've been doing. If this is your wife's first iPhone, and you want to share the iTunes Store account just don't use the new Apple ID you created. As long as there are no purchases on it there's nothing to worry about.

How do you make a Pages document default view larger?

I can't figure out how to make my Pages 5.1 default view larger than 125%. I would like to change it to 150% as a default for all documents. Is there a setting somewhere?

Although there is a setting for default page zoom in the Pages v5.1 plist file, setting this manually to any custom value, whether directly in the plist file, or via the Terminal, does not stick in subsequent Pages usage. This could be set and was retained in Pages ’09 v4.3, which you may still have installed in /Applications/iWork ’09.
Other than the last sentence as an alternative, your only current recourse is to set zoom manually from the toolbar.

HT2506 how do you set Preview as the default for opening pdf in browser?

How do I set the Preview application to be the default for viewing PDF's in while in Safari? Previously, while in Safari and clicking on links to PDF's, they would display with buttons on the bottom that made it simple to view and download the PDF. Since updating Adobe Reader it seems Reader is now the default application for viewing PDF's accessed from the internet. I haven't been able to figure out how to revert back to Preview.....

I did this and now Safari won't open the form at all.
I put the files back and it opens in Adobe.
When I save the files to desktop they open in Preview. But I am trying to read pdf's(? forms) while in Safari.
Adobe does not work smoothly in Safari and scrolling to read is a nightmare.
OS X 10.8.5
This problem came up within the last few months.
Before everything opened in Preview perfectly.

How can I selectively preview changes in Camera Raw CC

When working in the Basic Panel in ACR, I would like to selectively review changes of only one slider at a time. For instance, I have have adjusted exposure and now have also adjusted blacks, how can I preview the change in Blacks while the adjusted Exposure is still in effect? If I toggle the Preview button on and off, I see all the changes cumulatively. I have tried using the command key, shift, key and option key however, that doesn't seem to work.
Thanks.

Sorry, there is another way, which I'd forgotten about, because I almost never use it.
Say you make these edits, and only these edits: Exposure -1.0 stop, Contrast +20 and Shadows +100, in that order (the values don't matter, they're just random examples).
Now, to cycle back through the edits in reverse order to that which you made them, use Ctrl + Alt/Option + Z.
Pressing once gets you back to the image as edited only by Exp and Contrast. Twice gets to Exp only.
Three times eliminates Exp and you're back to where you first opened the image in ACR.
To re-instate the edits in the original order, press Ctrl + Shift + Z.
But this procedure can get messy and confusing in 3 circumstances that I can think of, just off the top of my head.
First, if you move a slider whilst experimenting with your edits (say, for example, Clarity +20) but then reset it to zero because it does not work as expected.
Now, when you cycle backwards or forward, your abandoned Clarity edit will be shown.
Secondly, if you make more than 3 edits, it can become difficult to remember in what order you initially made them and you can get lost when cycling back and forth.
Thirdly, if you have made any presets and these are applied automatically when first opening the image in ACR, the cycling can once again become more difficult to keep track of.
Whilst the use of Snapshots in the manner I first suggested is more cumbersome, it guarantees that you can keep track of your edits and compare their before and after effect.

How do I Select which email account to view?

I have two email accounts set up on my iPad how do I select which to view? If I just touch the mail icon it goes straight to the exchange account each time and does not let me choose the other account that is set up

To view a different account in the Mail app tap the email account name at the top left of the Inbox, then tap Mailboxes at the top of the folder selection window, and you should then be able to select a different email account and navigate down into it's folders

How can I make expanded threads the default view?

Whenever I go to my usenet account, I have to press Shift-* to expand all the threads. In the past, I never needed to do this. I would really like to be able to make "all threads expanded" my default view. Can anybody tell me if this is possible and if so, how to do it? TIA.

I would of answered you, but I can not remember how I did it. I have a folder set that way. So it was something simple. It is the hard stuff I tend to remember.
Almost all compose issues can be "cured" using the workaround of pressing enter 3 or 4 times and then moving the cursor back to the start. The composer has the annoying ability to go past the end of the document by one character and pick up the defaults used in developing the program.
Simply Typing your name and then returning to the beginning to type will bypass that.
This add-on https://freeshell.de/~kaosmos/quoteandcomposemanager-en.html with it's stabilize fonts setting has been a big help to some.
Not pasting from Word is also a big help.

Matt, thanks very much for replying. I'll give the trick you mention a try. However, the extension you recommend isn't approved by Mozilla and I'm very reluctant to install something which isn't.
Anyway, pretty sad when extensions have to be created to deal with bugs the developers should find solutions for. Maybe they're trying to convince people to give up TB so that they can totally drop it like they want.

Don't Want Preview To Be Default Viewer

I'd like an image viewer other than Preview to be my default one. How do I do that?
The viewer that I want ("Just Looking") has no option to set as default.

Click on a file that is the file type you want to change (for example: __.jpg or ___.pdf) and go to File -> Get Info. Then go to "Open With" and select the program you want to open it with and then click "apply to all".

How to pass select option value to function module while using service call

Hi,
I have select-option in my WD application. To collect data based on user input im using service call. How to pass this select option values to my RFC.
rgds
sudhanshu

Hi,
Thank s for your reply. In fact im doing similar with following variation:
i) collected range values using get_range* method.
ii) separate low and high values as:
read table <field2> index 1 into wa_range.
vert2_low = wa_range-low.
vert2_high = wa_range-high.
(Please note that in RFC I have taken two importing parameter as s_vert_lo and s_vert_hi)
iii) Now setting these RFC attribute as:
lo_el_importing->set_attribute(
    EXPORTING
      name = `S_VERT_LO`
      value = vert2_low ).
and
lo_el_importing->set_attribute(
    EXPORTING
      name = `S_VERT_HI`
      value = vert2_high ).
iv) In RFC im having my query as :
select <fld list> from BUT000 into table itab where vertical in r_vert.
Here, r_vert is a range defined as:
ranges r_vert for <fld refrence>
r_vert-sign = 'I'.
r_vert-option = 'BT'.
r_vert-low = S_VERT_LO.
r_vert-high = S_VERT_HI.
append r_vert.
Issue here is with ranges. if im passing both low and high values it is fine but if only low value being passed it is not giving me any record.
Please suggest.
