  • Error: I cannot view any PDF files without launching Reader and accepting end User agreement.  I have already downloaded Reader.

    I am getting an error message when I go to open a PDF file on my MAC that says "Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the end user agreement.  I have already downloaded Reader many times and followed all of the troubleshooting options.  I have matched up my software, which is the latest version and checked to make sure my internet security is enabling java script.  I don't know what to do.  Please help.

    Chrome uses it's own pdf viewer. That's why you don't get the message.
    If you are still having the problem on a Mac try:
    Make sure your files are not hidden : http://osxdaily.com/2009/02/25/show-hidden-files-in-os-x/
    Quit Safari and Adobe Reader if running.
    Go to HD/<Users>/<user name>/Library/Preferences/ delete com.adobe.Reader.plist
    Launch Adobe Reader from /Applications/
    You should be prompted to accept EULA.
    If on a Windows machine, do what Bernd described above. Launch Adobe Reader on it's own, not by double clicking a pdf or a link in a browser.

  • HT1338 I cannot open any pdf files on my mac book air.  I used to be able to.  I downloaded osx mountain lion and it still doesn't work.  any suggestions?

    I cannot open any pdf files on my mac book air.  I used to be able to open them.  It was suggested that I get OS Mountain Lion and I did.  still can't.  Any ideas? 

    You can download Adobe Reader from adobe.com.  The Mac OSX uses its "reader" to open PDF files without the Adobe Reader.  If you downloader adobe reader, it should open all PDF files.  Hope this helps.

    Jailbreaking violates the Apple warranty and licensing agreement and voids ALL support from Apple.  No one on here can help you as doing so is a violation of the Terms of Use of these Communities.  If you send the iPad to Apple they will just send it back to you as they are not permitted to work on a machine that has been jailbroken.

  • I cannot open any pdf files! I used to be able to. Have a mac.

    I cannot open any pdf files. I used to be able to. If I open them I get a blank screen. Have a mac. Help!!!!!

    Hi Charlie,
    First, thanks for responding. These are mostly emails with attachments or documents that I have. I download them and once I open them the page is blank. I also cannot look at them in Preview. The same problem. I called Apple and they said they assume I have an older software version. They are going to send new software. I am not really sure this will solve my problem. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Thanks!

    I followed the FAQ troubleshooting and that didn't help

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

  • Hi, I have Photoshop CS5 and cannot view my RAW files. Can anyone help me, please?

    Hello,
    I have PS5 and I cannot view my raw files. Can you help me?

    Hi Gautam,
    You are right thank you. I check the article and my camera canon 6D
    requires camera raw 7.3 and I have 6.0. What to do then?
    I did so research, I tried to open my PS5 and went to help \ update and I
    tried downloading update like 4 times each time there was a message "there
    was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later".
    I just need camera raw 7.3 so I can work on my raw files. Maybe you will be
    able to help. I appreciate in advance.

  • Cannot view a pdf file in Adode Reader 10 using IE8

    I just upgraded to Adobe reader X and I use IE8. I click on a link to a pdf (which contains a table of contents) but rather than being able to view the pdf, it automatically prompts me to "save as" rather than just leave the window open so I can read the page (and use the disk button I used to see on reader 9 to save later if I want).  How do I change the settings in Reader 10 so this Save As.. prompt no longer comes up automatically so I can just view the pdf??
    Thanks
    MJ

    No.

  • Acrobat X doing PS to PDF conversion and can view the PDF file in the Lower version?

    Hi,
    I am converting the Postscript file to PDF file using Acrobat X, but the end user is having the Acrobat older version. Can we use the lower Acrobat version for the viewing? Also it's under EULA?
    Thanks for looking into this.
    Thanks,
    KSK

    If you make PDF 1.7, Acrobat 6 and later can handle the file.
    If you make PDF 1.6, Acrobat 5 and later can handle the file.
    A little more on EULA: this is not official, but I have seen a lot of discussion in these forums about it. It seems to be that you cannot use Acrobat (or Distiller from Acrobat) as a server process, automating creation of PDF for others without the control of an individual even on a desktop.
    So, if these PostScript files are made by an individual who runs Distiller, this is fine.
    If the individual puts files from anywhere into Distiller that is fine.
    It is not fine if PostScript files are delivered from somewhere else and automatically processed.
    It is not fine if PostScript files are made automatically on this machine and automatically delivered to the file server for others to read.
    Distiller is for making files for its licensed user to read, or to share themselves manually.

  • Is there any other solution for Adobe Flash plugin crashing than the posted one about updating Flash and Mozilla? I cannot open any PDF files online and updated both Mozilla and Flash player to most recent with no change in the crashing.

    I was able to open PDFs online until version 8. Since upgrading to version 9 and now 10, I have crashes every time I try to open a PDF online and can see the form briefly for about two seconds before the plugin crashes. I followed instructions on the solution to update Adobe Flash and Mozilla, and they are both to the most recent version and it still crashes every time, no dent in the symptoms with the upgrades. I tried also downgrading to version 3, and it sill crashes. Although in some cases I can get around by saving the PDFs for reading them through Acrobat on my PC, it is a hassle as I do not want to save everything to my drive just to see what it is, plus sometimes forms are generated on a click and I cannot see these forms at all.
    I had to migrate to Chrome as I needed the PDFs and could not wait any longer - any suggestions to make Mozilla work again would be appreciated.

    Hi,
    Please check if this happens in [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode] after enabling only the PDF plugin in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons''' > '''Plugins'''. You can also '''Disable''' the PDF plugin and try an alternative, for eg. [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pdfjs/?src=cb-dl-created pdf.js]. Please also go through the add-on reviews, ratings, help and FAQ.

  • On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". They are all registered. Help

    On my registered iTunes computer, the following message appears every time one plugs in a device and refuses to load said device to be synced: "This iPod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started". Each device has been registered onto this account and this computer, and all have worked finely in the past. I am so confused as to why now seemingly without reason, none of our apple devices (one iPod, two iPhones) are allowed to have music and other material downloaded onto them. Also, as a side note, they still are charged by plugging them into the computer, however they do not even show up on the left-hand sidebar in iTunes.
    It should also be noted that for my iPhone it does not allow for the new update software to be uploaded; it just says that an error has occurred, nothing more.

  • Phone used for nearly a year and recently pics taken by rear camera are all turned into green but front camera worked fine, any clue?

    pics took by rear cam all turn to green but front cam normal, please advise?

    You can't do anything to get service in your country by Apple, the warranty is only valid in the country where the phone has been bought.
    If you can't bring it back to the USA, you'll have to get it checked by an experienced 3rd party repair shop, but this will void the warranty, and Apple will not service the device anymore, even if you want to pay for it.
