  • Clicking any pdf link in firefox, opens up ADE instead of Adobe Reader.

    I clicked yes when ADE asked me to open all pdf files in the future like this but i am so fed up as i want to STOP opening ADE and instead want Adobe Reader 9 (9.3.1) to open all my files agian.
    Please help.

    I TRASHED Adobe Reader... where it belongs. Somehow, and sadly, Apple dropped the GET INFO from under the program name, where it had been before. Command I is now short hand for Command Inspector - i.e. no longer Command Info as was in previous versions of OS X.
    So, under Command I, there is no selection to make Preview the Default PDF viewer. How 'bout that? Sad is what I say. I think Apple should be a little weary here, go on Offense, and have an OBVIOUS workout to make Preview, any/all of its programs, the Default program.

  • In Safari how do I open a .PDF file in Preview instead of Adobe Reader?

    When a pdf file opens on my computer in Safari, it opens with Adobe Reader (v. 7.0.8). Until recently, I could right-click on my mouse and and a drop-down menu would appear with the option to open the pdf file in Preview instead of Adobe. That option has now disappeared from the drop-down menu. Can anyone explain how to get back the menu option to open the pdf file in Preview? Thanks. David

    My computer automatically open PDF inside the Safari
    window, but I wish it would go back to opening it
    externally via Adobe. (maybe we should trade
    computers:-)
    Anyway, we have the same question.
    How do we control whether PDF launches internal to
    Safari, or external in Adobe?
    This is what I would like to as well. I often have a lot of pdf files I need to open and then save to my hard drive. When I click on a pdf file on a website Safari opens it and then I need to right click in the document to open it with Adobe. How can I get it to open in Adobe the first time without having to right click after it opens in Safari?
    Thanks!

    How to open PDF documents in Adobe Reader for iOS (iPhone on iOS 7 version)

    Because it's not a frequently asked question, we do not have the Facebook section in the FAQ document.  Sorry about that.
    There is no direct way to get a PDF document shown in the Facebook window into Adobe Reader for iOS.  You need to go from (1) Facebook to (2) Safari (web browser), then to (3) Adobe Reader on iPhone (and iPad as well).
    In the Facebook page showing a PDF document, tap the Share icon in the bottom toolbar.
    Select "Open in Safari" from the menu that appears.
    In Safari, tap anywhere in the document to show the toolbar (below the top toolbar).
    Tap "Open in..." (label) in the toolbar.
    Tap "Open in Adobe Reader".
    Please let us know if it doesn't work for you.

  • Open all PDF using Preview instead of Adobe Reader

    I recently install Adobe Reader and now all files are opening with Adobe Reader instead of Preview. I want to change the default to Preview for all PDF files. I did choose open with option key down... so that I can select open with... and then chose the option "always open with...". However this only changes the default application for the single file I chose and not to ALL PDF files. When I try to open any random PDF file, it defaults to Adobe Reader, even AFTER I selected "always open with... Preview" on a difference file. Any ideas on how I can make sure the Preview opens for ALL PDF files as default?
    Thanks,
    Orlando - Chicago, IL

    Have you made the change in the get info window? Control click on a PDF and choose get info. Scroll down to change all and click on that:

  • Why are my PDF's opening in Preview instead of Adobe?

    My previous iBook opened up my PDF's in Adobe. But my MacBook purchased Nov 2012 is opening up PDF's in Preview. How can I get them to open in Adobe?

    Thank you, this only works until system shut down, and on re-start, Preview is again mysteriously the default viewer for PDF's... I can repeat this "Get Info, Change All" sequence, but every time I restart the computer?  Seem odd... Any suggestions?  Thanks!

    Select (highlight) the file in Finder and then use the Finder File menu Get Info (or Command I) and in the Open With section of the Get Info choose the application you want to open the file. Another method is to right-click the file in Finder.

  • How to make pdf file auto open with adobe reader after downloaded

    how to make pdf file auto open with adobe reader after downloaded

    I note from your system details that you have the plugin for adobe pdf s so I would have expected the files should open in firefox '''without''' you needing to explicitly download them.
    Once the files are open in firefox, you will also get the option to save them permanently to a location on your computer. If you wish I suppose you could set the file type pdf to be associated with and be opened by firefox instead of with the Adobe Acrobat Reader, but that would just seem to be an additional complexity.

  • When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

    When opening a pdf document in Adobe Reader the font of the original document is changed....It becomes a mix of the original font and a new different font. How can i fix this

    This issue occurs with most of the PDFs that I open up. I am using the latest version of adobe reader on my windows based machine and it is a general PDF. I saw a similar post online stating that if you look at the fonts used in the document and it doesn't say (Embedded) next to it, then Adobe Reader will try to pull the font(s) from your computer and if it doesn't find that font then it will replace it which makes it look funny.

  • How do I open a web page in Adobe Reader from ipad2?  I don't see any buttons to click. I'm new user

    How do I open  a web page in Adobe Reader? I got the app for ipad2, but when a page says I need a certain version of AR, I don't know what to do. I'm a new user and don't know if I have to "open" AR and it automatically reads whatever doc I have up on the web, or is it always running and any web page I'm on should show a button to click in order to open the page in AR?

    If a website says that you need a certain version of Adobe Reader, it is probably attempting to detect whether or not you have the Adobe Reader browser plugin installed. This is something that only works on desktop systems where browser plugins exist. Since browser plugins don't exist on mobile, website developers should take care to present different messages and provide different options for downloading PDF's when visited by mobile browsers. I recommend contacting the website owner and requesting that they implement access for mobile devices.

  • How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers.

    How can I get iTunes to open to Library instead of the iTunes Store.  It does it on one of my computers, but I don't know how I did it.

    For me, iTunes always opens to whatever I had selected previously when it was closed.
    In other words, if I had Apps selected when I closed iTunes, the next time I opened iTunes it would be on Apps.
