How To Remove Prompt To Open PDF?

When using IE 11 to open a PDF, I am prompted to open the file.  I wish to eliminate this prompt.
I am deploying Reader 11 to 2,300 locations, each with 5 - 10 users.  They open PDF's throughout the day and this extra step is very annoying.
I've tried using this registry setting but it doesn't work:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\AttachmentExecute\{0002DF01-0000-0000- C000-000000000046}]
@=""
"AcroExch.Document.11"=hex(0):       <-- not sure which, if any of this is the correct ProgID for a PDF file
"AcroPDF.PDF"=hex(0):
"AcroPDF.PDF.1"=hex(0):
"AcroExch.PDF.PDF.1"=hex(0):
Please help
Thanks!

Hey David,
Please let me know if you are on 64-bit operating system.
If yes, then navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer" and launch IE from there.
Else, try the following steps:
Launch IE and go to Tools> Internet Options> Programs> Manage add-ons
On the left hand side, choose all add-ons under show.
Disable Adobe PDF Reader add-on
Now, restart IE and follow the same procedure to enable it.
Let me know if this works.
Regards,
Anubha

  • How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?

    How come pages won't open PDF files made by Pages?
    I have files I made with Pages and exported as PDF but I can't open them with pages to edit?
    Also, where are the recent files created by pages located? Can't find those to open either..

    Hi Tom,
    I was delighted when I signed up for Pages. Clunky yes, but it worked. I've been a graphic designer on a Mac for 25 plus years and have logged too many horror stories of "upgrade" wars which cost me massive lost time, data and money forcibly extracted just so I could finish a project.
    When I first used Pages in April of 2012? or there about, I was able to open Word documents exported to .pdf format, emailed to me, which I then dragged into Pages. I could make the changes I needed to make, export as a .pdf, return it back to my client which they could then edit on whatever it was they were using. I'm not a neophyte with this. I've had Original Photoshop as a stand alone, Quark (which locked users out 6 months after I purchased it.) Quark again, Freehand, Pagemaker, Illustrator, Photoshop again, Creative Suite for several upgrades, Acrobat Pro. 2 years ago I lost 6 years of Quicken data and had to and "upgrade" start over. This last go around I  had to "upgrade" my Apple ID - yes I had 2 on purpose, lost my Pandora One and my ability to get into the Tulsa County Library website.
    At this point, I'm retired and feel like what I've paid for in the past should WORK today. I have a 100+ page cookbook in Quark which I was able to export as a .pdf, that I've lost the tags too, Easier to start over. I have artwork that is hundreds of megs in Photoshop. Not the least bit interested in anybody's "cloud".
    Thanks for letting me vent. I'm determined to keep my equipment and software up to date so I can enjoy the skills I've acquired, but I completely cringe at Apple's antics. I truly hate it when I have to respond to some new "tip" or product offer. BooHiss. Happy Turkey Day. Pages is a "turkey" program.

  • How do I make IE open PDF inside browser and not prompt?

    I am using IE 11, Adobe Reader 11.0.06.
    When I try to open a PDF inside a browser window (for example this one: http://helpx.adobe.com/dk/pdf/acrobat_reference.pdf) I am prompted to Open, Save or Save As. I want open the document directly without being prompted.
    How can I achieve that?

    I have now tried the following: Adobe Reader was completely uninstalled. I then downloaded and installed the Adobe Reader 11.0.00 package directly from the Adobe site and upgraded it to 11.0.06 afterwards.
    In this default configuration it works - PDF files on web pages open directly in Internet Explorer (Windows 7, IE 10).
    I then removed Reader and ran our deployed version (from SCCM). Then it failed to show PDF's in the browser, as before.
    So a setting in our TRANSFORMS file could be an issue. Does anyone know if you can set this open/do-not-open in browser inside the MST file using Adobe Reader Configuration Utility? Our installation CMD file looks like this:
    REM *** Install Reader 11 MUI base package
    msiexec /i [\\servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AdbeRdr11000_mui_Std\acroread.msi TRANSFORMS=\\[servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AcroRead.mst LANG_LIST=[language] /passive
    REM *** Install 11.0.06 MUI update
    msiexec /update \\[servername]\source$\Applications\AdobeReader11\AdbeRdrUpd11006_MUI.msp /passive

  • How to stop Adobe Reader opening pdf's in Safari

    I've checked all the forums for this problem and have tried all the solutions, however none work for me.
    I've deleted Adobe Reader and used a program call CleanMyMac to get rid of all files, so no plug-in's, nothing left of Adobe Reader. Yet, I cannot open pdf's in Safari as it still wants to use Adobe Reader.
    I've right clicked other pdf's in my documents and have checked that they are opening with my default program, which is Evernote. The option to 'change all'  is greyed out.
    What else can I do, other than stop using Safari?

    Adobe Reader installed?  If so remove Reader.
    Macintosh HD > Library > Internet Plug-ins
    Look for these two files.
    AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin
    AdobePDFViewer.plugin
    Right click those and select “Move To Trash”.

    in the url of the new page that you are opening add --> &RetainAM=Y at the end.
    Following points should be useful :
    Suppose ,you have to open a new window from your page by clicking on a link or a button and after opening, when you click on any button in the parent page, if you are getting a session out error… try the following solutions:
    1.     Add retainAM=Y in the destination URI of the button or link
    2.     If you have the back button handling in your code, ensure that…
    if (!pageContext.isBackNavigationFired(true)) is written instead of
    if (!pageContext.isBackNavigationFired(false))
    3.     Also ensure that the trasaction name is exactly same in both startTransactionUnit and end TransactionUnit
    TransactionUnitHelper.startTransactionUnit(pageContext, "sameName");
    TransactionUnitHelper.endTransactionUnit(pageContext, " sameName ");

  • Question: How to remove prompt in recording using MMAPI

    Hi,
    we have been developing a softphone using j2me. Our goal is to record voice (using j2me) into a byte array and deliver that as a packet either through bluetooth or wifi. We need to capture voice at a certain interval, stop the capture, deliver, and then capture the voice again.
    The problem is this. Everytime i call on record, the phone prompts if i indeed want to record using the MMAPI. I think that this is a security feature but is there any way to bypass it?

  • How do you download and open PDF files that come in the email?

    I can NOT download or open PDF files. It prompts me to open in IBooks and then it's not there. I am so frustrated. PLEASE HELP!

    Touch the attachement once to download it.  Then touch it a second time, after it is downloaded ( watch the attachment icon) to open it in quick view. if you want to do something more than just view it, and if you want to save it,  Touch and hold the downloaded attachment to get the 'open in' pop up, and any app that supports PDFs, like I books, or any of the other PDF ready apps.
    If it is not downloaded yet, it will not be in I books.

  • How to remove source link in PDF file

    Hello,
    I want to create pdf files of all newsletters our organization has sent out for the past year. I took a template from the software we use for sending out our newsletters. I saved this template as an htm file on my desktop. Then I used acrobat pro to create a new pdf file from a web page. It comes out perfectly, all links are working, no problems there. But on the left top of the document there is a link to where that file is stored on my pc. It looks like this:
    file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/..........
    I hope somebody can tell me how I remove that link from there. I've been struggling with it for some time now.
    Kind regards,
    Lucas

    In the dialog of 'Create PDF from Web Page'you can change the settings.

    What you are seeing is the result of moving a text file from a dos (windows) platform to a nix platform without proper translation.  In dos, two characters are used to indicate end-of-line.  they are the control characters for Carraige Return and Line Feed (x'13' and x'10').  In nix, only one character. I can't remember if it is the x'13' or the x'10'. Normally, when a file is copied from one platform to another, the copy utility will recognize this and make the proper modification to the file. However, if you ftp the file in binary mode, no translation occurs. Of course, you can ftp in text (ascii) mode only if it is a text file to begin with, so you can't do this with a zip file.
    As already given, there are ways to use vi substitution commands to fix it after the fact. You can also use the utility 'dos2unix' to fix the file after it has landed on the *nix platform. (the actual name of the file may be a variant on the theme of 'dos2unix'.  You may have to google a bit to find it on your OS).

  • How to remove prompt for Allow or Block message when opening a web link?

    THE ENVIRONMENT:
    User audience running version of Adobe Reader 5.x-8.x on Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2 platform.
    Our web platform is Windows 2003 server, web site address: http://www.uzlicek.cz/default.aspx?ido=95&sh=216233947
    THE ISSUE:
    We produce pdf documents with lot of hyperlinks. In new versions of Acrobat and Reader you have to click Allow or Block button before going to the site. It is very annoying for our readers.
    There are probably two directions of solution: either modify somehow the pdf document or somehow edit end readers Adobe Reader security settings (or add the document to trusted documents list.
    THE QUESTION:
    Is there any possibility how to preset Allow all web sites in Preferences/Trust manager/Internet access from pdf file.../Change settings in such a way, that reader of pdf document is not forced to confirm access to external web site?
    Some common thing should work for playing multimedia, the problem is the same, asking and confirming all the time...
    Thanks in advance for suggestions of resolving this behavior.

    I find these "security" warnings that pop up in Adobe Reader to be a little absurd. All I want to do is create a PDF with a couple of links to websites. How is this any different than creating a webpage with a couple links?
    My web visitors certainly don't get a "trusted site" warning box every thime they click on a link. Yet, the pdfs I create force my readers to see not only one, but two different warning boxes before they can do anything with the pdf.
    First they get a security warning for connecting to a website, and then they get another message box asking them if they want to "manage trust for multimedia content." Good lord. Talk about scaring people away. Is there really any good reason why my PDF audience should have to go through all this hassle?
