How to delete old Adobe reader plugin from Safari?

Hi,
I can no longer view pdfs within Safari.
I deleted Adobe reader 7.0 and installed 11. Now Safari does not open embedded pdf's anymore. I suspect Safari is looking for reader 7.0. I think so, because in Safari>prefs>security>Internetplugins there is a list where both versions of reader are visible, the old version seems to be the active one.
I probably better had not deleted Reader 7.0 by hand...
How do I make Safari understand it should use Adobe Reader 11.0?
Thanks,
Wim

Exit Safari.
In Finder > Preferences > Sidebar, under DEVICES, check the top box which will be your assigned computer name. This will make it available to you in an open Finder window.
Open a new Finder window, scroll the left panel down until you see the DEVICES section, and single-click on the name of your computer. The contents of the main Finder window will change and you will see a network globe, and for our focus, a silver icon of a disk drive with your boot drive name — probably Macintosh HD.
Double-click Macintosh HD. Double-click Library. Scroll down until you see Internet Plug-Ins, and double-click that folder. Holding your shift-key down, select the following icons:
AdobePDFViewer.plugin
AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
Now, with both icons selected, right-click to bring up the contextual menu and choose Copy 2 Items. Then, click once on your desktop, press and hold the option key with right-click. This time, you will see Move 2 Items Here. Select this and the plug-ins will be moved to your Desktop.
You now have a choice of default Safari PDF viewing, or if you prefer the Adobe PDF plug-ins, reinstall Adobe Reader 11.0.04 (as of this post date) to reinstate the Acrobat PDF browser plug-ins. Once this is working, drag the Adobe plug-ins on your Desktop to the trash.

How do I stop Adobe Reader X from reading documents meant for Adobe Digital Editions?

I was trying to download via Sample e-Book Library, just to check if my Adobe Digital Editions was working properly.
Turns out, PDFs / Urls are interrrupted by Adobe Reader X.
Even though Adobe Reader X is unable to read it, or as it keeps telling me: "Adobe reader could not open URLLINK.acsm because it is either not a supported file type, or because the file has been damaged"
Any suggestions to how I could abort Adobe Reader X from automatically read documents meant for Adobe Digital Editions?

It's Windows 8.
Turns out the problem was acsm.files preconfigured to be opened in Adobe Reader. The solution was to right click on the file(s) in Downloads, and then reconfigure it through the option "open as/in ..."
and somehow give the correct adress, through Computer:/ C and so on, to the Adobe Digital Editions.

Hallo an alle,
Ich habe mir einen Virus eingefangen, serve.bannersdontwork, auf Safari.
Alle 8-20 clicks öffnet sich diese Seite "serve.bannersdontwork" und leitet mich auf andere weiter.
Über mein Antivirusprogramm Avira konnte ich den Virus nicht beheben.
Auch die erweiterung AdBlock hilf hier nicht weiter.
Wer weiß, oder hat eine Ahnung, wie man diesen Virus wieder los wird?
Danke schonmal im voraus!!

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.

How do you open adobe reader docs from a cd-rom

How do I open Adobe PDF doc from a cd-rom

Yes, I recently bought a book with a cd-rom with it that has documents on the cd that I can copy and use for my students and use as assessments. When I load the cd-rom, it opens up in adobe acrobat reader window and it has on the upper right hand side TOOLS COMMENT SIGN . The doc's are highlighted in blue but I cant click on them because it either gives me this selection only; Seltct Tool, Marquee Zoom, Hand Tool. It will not allow me to just left click and print doc. Top menu has File, Edit, View, Window, Help and the usual zoom 100% or 150% . and the print icon is visable but it will prunt the the page not the specific document I want. It has convert files to PDF on line and convert files to Microsoft word online, sign in doc, So what is it that need to open the documents and just print?

Adobe Reader Plugins for Safari 5 on Snow Leopard

Our software uses Adobe Reader to open, edit, and save Pdf Forms. Most of our customer base is on Windows but we now have some MAC users as well. Everything works fine except using Safari 5 on Snow Leopard. It appears as if the plug ins are not loading properly or at all when Reader 9 is installed. When a user goes to open a PDF Form, nothing happens.
My personal Macbook which I have at the office, is Leopard with Safari 5 and when I download Reader 9, I can see the plugins in Safari and everthing works fine. Any suggestions?
Thanks

On Snow Leopard 10.6, you need to run Safari in 32 bit mode to get the Adobe Reader Plugin to load and launch properly.
To do this,
1) exit Safari.
2) in the Finder go to your Applications folder, select Safari and do File->Get Info
3) Check 'Open in 32-bit mode' in the General pane of that dialog
4) Relaunch Safari
5) Under the Safari Help->Installed Plug-ins you should now see the Adobe Reader plugin support.
I am able to get Safari to open forms inline in Reader this way. I am not able to get the Adobe Forms with Adobe Javascript running in this mode. Any insight on how this might be done would be helpful. It does work in the Standalone Reader, but so far no luck enabling it in the Safari plugin.

Keep getting error message Adobe reader plugin for safari

I keep getting an error message saying that Adobe REader has detected Missing Components that require repair. etc. Ask to select components I would like to repair but the message freezes solid and I can't even force quit it.
Anyone else seen this?

HI,
Launch Adobe Reader. From the Menu Bar click Help/Repair Adobe Reader Installation.
If you still have problems, go to ~/Library/Preferences and move the com.adobe.Reader.plist file to the Trash, then try the Help/Repair Adobe Reader Installation again.

How to delete old unused blog tags from Wiki Server 3 in Lion Server

My Tags index in my Wiki Server 3 wiki (Lion Server) still shows old tags that are no longer in use.
But, how in the world does one remove them?
Any help?   Thanks.

I figured it out, but had one hoop to jump through.   I hadn't noticed a tiny little edit button in the far upper right corner of the tags window.   Clicking it reveals red minus signs next to each tag. That's how to delete a tag.
BUT, since my tags were no longer in use (I'd deleted the original blog(s) they were attached to, when I tried deleting them I got an error message.   So, I created a dummy blog entry, tagged it with the same tags that I want to delete, saved the blog, then went back to the all-tags view and deleted them (they existed this time). After done, I deleted the temporary blog.   All done.
It seems clear that the WIki 3 Server is very primative in many ways. I hope Mountain Lion reveals a host of improvements.

Deleting old Adobe Reader applications...

I have downloaded the newest Adobe Reader application but still show multiple older versions of Adobe Reader(7.08 & 8) in my Applications folder.
Can I delete and trash these without losing some necessary files to run the 9 version only...?
I also run Classic 9 OS occasionally for older applications and in that Application folder there is an Acrobat Reader 5.0 which I don't know if I need to have or if I can update it to a newer version that would work with Classic 9.

I would say to play it safe you might want to delete the Acrobat files (maybe archive them just to be safe) before doing your upgrade. I don't know but it is possible the Acrobat Reader installer may have an uninstall button. Programs like Acrobat and Office like to put files all over the place so if you really want to make sure all the old is gone you would need to do a lot of manual weeding. However, it is slightly possible that when you run the installer it might ask if you want to get rid of earlier versions. Try running the installer part way and see what options it offers. Usually you can cancel before installing if you decide you need to do something before installing.
Now, there's OS9 and there's Classic. OS9 is when you boot to OS9 and OS9 is totally in control. When you boot to OSX and run Classic, it is OSX that is really in control and it is pretending (emulating) OS9 +at the same time+. If you start a program written for OSX while in Classic it will just start the program in OSX. If you actually boot to OS9 then it is extremely unlikely it will run the OSX version. There were some programs written around the transition period that would run on both, but I doubt any recent release would. The bottom line is, if all you do is run Classic then you could also get rid of your version 5 too.

Best Adobe reader plugin for Safari or firefox .

Hi Folks.
I am looking for the best plugin available for safari that will give me the functionality of adobe reader when viewing pdf documents using safari.
Am i doing something wrong but i download pdf's to the desktop, i ctrl+click on them and select 'Open With' i navigate to adobe reader and select 'always open with..'
Shouldn't that make Adobe Reader the default app for pdf's and not preview?
Is this functionality carried over to safari, as in what i want to do is when browsing the web with safari, click on a pdf and have it open in reader.
Any help is appreciated.

If you have Adobe Reader installed, then open its preferences and select the option to install the Adobe Reader for Safari (under Internet preferences.)
To have Adobe Reader become the default reader for PDFs simply select any PDF file and press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. Set the default application to Adobe Reader then click on the Change All button.

How to delete websites, usernames, and passwords from safari preferences

ok, selected safari menu, preferences and passwords. took me to a list that showed website, username and password. i selected a website/username/password that i would like to delete. at the bottom it shows "remove all" or "remove". btw, when i selected the website/username/password, it became highlighted. anyway, when i selected remove, the highlight disappeared but the website/username/password remained in the list.
is there a way to delete the website/username/passwords that i choose?

Thank you.
That seems to have done the trick.
I simply deleted them in Keychain and the seem to have gone from Safari Pref's.
Quite why they didn't take no for an answer from Safari I don't quite understand, but matters not.

How to delete old email source name from emails I send?

I used to work at company and sent email from that email address. I do not work there now but when I send new or replies to anyone, that old email address is plunked into the from email.

No....Did not work....I followed your instructions numerous times.
Problem....Remains....
When I compose an new email the FROM email address list alphabetically as AAAA, BBBB, CCCC. If I don't select CCCC it automatically sends the email from AAAA which no longer exist. Recipients of the email who reply to the AAAA email address are informed no such address exist.
I agree....
My question is How do I delete BOTH AAAA and BBBB email addresses from being used? Is there a simple table I can access?
Thank you, WRELAM

How can I prevent Adobe Reader X from being the default to open .pdf files?

I have Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0 and will soon be getting V 10.
I want Acrobat to open my .pdf files NOT Reader.
Reader was installed because a certain program required it.
Any help would be appreciated.
Kamoxb

Thank you so much! Unfortunately for me, it is grayed out. I will need to get my IT admin person to set it for me.
