I can no longer download PDF podcasts

With iOS4, I am no longer allowed to download PDF podcasts. I really want to be able to download and view them without my computer involved. Is there a way?
Example: http://itunes.apple.com/podcast/rick-steves-britain-audio/id354697208 (has several PDFs)

I had the same problem.
Before I solved it, sometimes it would work if I moved the tab from the new window to the window where the Chase main page was. Then after a reload it the PDF would show up.
Some other websites where PDFs are generated also showed a blank page.
''The solution'': I had the '''PDF download''' Add-on (latest version, 3.0.0.2) and disabled it. It is not enough to disable the add-on in its add-on bar button, and writing the website in the add-on's "do not use" list also doesn't work. The only thing that works is disabling it in the Add-ons Manager or even uninstalling it.

  • Can no longer download PDFs, advice & suggestions requested.

    I work in an office with a Mac that has OS X 10.4.11 (400 MHZ Power PC G4).  I have Acrobat Standard version 7.1.3, which is horribly outdated, but finances only allow for free upgrades.
    A month or so ago I was no longer able to download PDF files, and at times my work requires me to download various government forms. I had Adobe Acrobat Standard 7.1.1 when the trouble started, but was able to download free upgrades to the present Acrobat 7.1.3.
    My favorite browser is Safari 4.0.3, and when I try to download a PDF in Safari I get a nearly blank screen, but in the upper left hand corner is a small blue box with a question mark inside.
    A few months ago I downloaded Firefox 3.5.3, and for a time that worked well, but now when I open Firefox and attempt to download PDF files I get a blank screen, and up in the gray bar area (where saved websites are shown) I get what appears to be the web address for the particular PDF file, but the download isn't there.
    This computer also has Internet Explorer 5.2.3, and I believe higher upgrades aren't available for Macs. I started working here in 2005, and even back then Explorer didn't work well, it seemed to only half-open a website. (My terminology is bad, I don't know how to say technical things properly.) For years I've been ignoring Explorer, but just to see what would happen, today I opened Internet Explorer 5.2.3, attempted to download a PDF form, and it more or less worked. I went to the IRS website, downloaded a 1040 form, and was able to fill in the blanks. I then went to our state Revenue website, was able to download tax forms, but wasn't able to fill in the blanks. I don't like Internet Explorer, but if it was possible to get a free upgrade that would work with Macs I'd download it, just to have access to needed PDF forms.
    Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to once again have the ability to download PDFs while using Safari or Firefox? I posted a question on a Safari discussion forum, but didn't get any answers. I've spend the  last couple of weeks checking out this Adobe site, found several questions about PDF downloading problems, but haven't come across an answer.
    Anyone who can offer help will have my undying gratitude.

    Dear Graffiti,
    I just had a chance to play around with the control>click suggestion. When I'm in Safari and get my "blue question mark in a box" I can control>click the question mark, choose "save image to the Desktop" from the drop down menu, and get the form to download. Unfortunately the fill-in form is in Preview, and not Adobe, so I can see the form and print it out, but I can't fill in the blanks.
    When I did control>click on the form name at the website, instead of getting my blue question mark I got a different drop down menu. One option was "download linked file". That seemed like a possibility, so I clicked that. I got a message that went something like this "view.asp.html is an application. Are you sure you want to open an application?" (or maybe it was create an application) Anyway, I didn't want to mess around with applications for each PDF file I try to open, so I canceled that.
    I tried control>click in Firefox and in Internet Explorer, and discovered that the reason why Explorer had been sort-of working before is because it had been opening the forms in Preview when I was just clicking.
    So control>click gives me different options, but I'm not able to figure out how to download the PDFs into Adobe Acrobat, which is how it used to work.

  • I can no longer download PDF statements from my credit card site.

    I was trying to download a PDF statement from Chase credit card site, like I have done many times in the past, and it will not do a download. It opens the new window with nothing, and the downloads page has nothing on it.
    Can I go back to the previous version of Firefox until you have the bugs worked out of this version (4).

  • Can no longer download pdf file since last safari update

    Since the last OS update (I am running Safari 6.1; OX 10.8.5) pdf files via Safari fail to open. Yet they do open in Firefox, which is 'not' my default browser. Anyone else having issues?

    Try this ...
    Open a Finder window then from the menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type or copy paste the following:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Click Go.
    If you see the:  AdobePDFViewer plugin (or anything Adobe related) in the Internet Plug-Ins folder, move it to the trash.
    Restart your Mac and try opening a PDF file.

  • Can no longer dounload pdf file in safari or firefox. What is the problem?

    I am using os 10.7.3 and a couple of weeks ago I found I can no longer download pdf files. Instead nothing happens or it try so open in a document viewer, for example: http://wi-burnettcounty.civicplus.com/DocumentView.aspx?DID=341.What do I do? I have not made any changes except update os 10.7 and adobe reader. Other computers using snowlepoard down load just fine!

    Quit Safari.
    Open the Library folder in your home folder as follows:
    ☞ If running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar.
    ☞ If running an older version of Mac OS X, select Go ▹ Go to Folder… from the Finder menu bar and enter “~/Library” (without the quotes) in the text box that opens.
    Delete the following items from the Library folder:
    Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
    Preferences/com.apple.quicktime.plugin.preferences.plist
    Preferences/QuickTime Preferences
    Relaunch Safari and test.

  • My iPod Touch can no longer download Podcast Videos after upgrading to iOS4

    After upgrading OS 3.1.3 to iOS4, My iPod Touch (2nd Generation) can no longer download such video podcasts as NBC News, CBS News, ABC News and Cranky Geeks from iTunes store. The moment the download starts, there is always an annoying prompt "this video cannot be played on this iPod".
    It's really frustrating!!!

    Same thing happening to mine also, still cant find a reason.

  • I can no longer download any NPR podcasts I subscribe to. I can download and listen to other podcasts but none from NPR.  I have tried on Windows 7 and Windows 8.  Other podcasts, music etc. download fine.

    I have tried downloading the podcasts on computers that run Windows 7 and Windows 8.  Other podcasts, music etc. download fine.
    iTunes version:  11.3.0.54
    I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling iTunes and I have tried unsubscribing and resubscribing to the podcasts.
    I don't have trouble getting NPR podcasts from the store. I just can't play them in iTunes.

    For additional context and to verify if we are talking about the same behavior.  Here is what the download screen looks like on my iPod:

  • I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few episodes at a time due to the limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around?

    I can no longer manually select podcast episodes to download. It automatically downloads the most recent. I have been downloading a few past episodes at a time due to limited memory of my Shuffle. Is there a work-around for this?

    Similar problem here. My Ical refuses to edit or delete events. Viewing is possible, though sometimes the whole screen turns grey. Adding new events from mail is still possible. The task-pane completely disappeared. My local apple technic-centre messed about with disk utility for a bit and than told me to reinstall leopard. I could of course do that, but it seems to me that reinstalling Leopard just to fix iCal events is a bit invasive.
    I tried also tried removing everything, installing a new copy of iCal from the leopard-cd, software updates, all to no avail.
    At the moment I'm open to all suggestions that do not include a complete leopard reinstall.

  • I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 on Windows XP, SP3

    I can no longer print PDF files that were scanned with the very same MX479 All-in-One.
    I have an (obsolete) Windows XP, SP3 computer.  Obviously, no updates from Microsoft
    have occurred that might have impacted my Canon Pixma MX479.
    When I attempt to send 1 or more pages from a PDF file to the printer, I don't even get the
    Canon PIXMA popup that would allow me to cancel the print job.
    Yet the Print Queue icon appears in the lower right corner of my monitor.
    If I view the Print Queue, the print queue shows "spooling" and does nothing more.
    If I attempt to CANCEL the print job in the Print Queue, it simply changes to "deleting -
    spooling".
    I cannot cancel the print job that shows NOT RESPONDING via Task Manager, either.
    In fact, the only way the Print Queue icon disappears is if I totally reboot my computer!
    "Luckily", I can still print e-mails, Word documents, and even my downloaded PDF of my
    bank statement.
    So, I was thinking that it was *only* PIXMA'S OWN SCANNED PDFS that could not be
    printed ON THE SAME PIXMA 479.
    However, I have since realized that I also cannot print USPS Signature Proof of Delivery
    PDFs that I received from USPS via e-mail.
    So why can I print *some* PDF files, but not *all* PDF files, like I previously could do?
    THESE SCANS ARE OF LEGAL DOCUMENTS, SO I WILL LIKELY HAVE TO E-MAIL
    THE REQUISITE, PREVIOUSLY SCANNED PDFS TO FEDEX TO PAY FOR *THEM*
    TO PRINT THEM.
    NOTE: I *have* tried turning the PIXMA off, unplugging it, rebooting the computer, plugging
    the PIXM in and restarting the PIXMA - still no ability to print PIXMA-scanned PDFs.
    And, I find it very strange that e-mails, Word documents, and some other PDFs print with
    no problem "around" "NOT RESPONDING" PIXMA print jobs.
    I have owned Canon printers for years, including the MX420, and the MX340.

    There may be some security issues related to the USPS PDFs.

    I can't help with the scan/print problem. You seem to have done everything I would try.
    I don't know if maybe using a registry cleaner would help.

  • I can no longer download anything

    For some reason, I can no longer download anything on itunes on my computer.
    When I try, I get the following error as a sample...
    There were problems downloading some purchased items.
    For more information on the items that could not be downloaded, click below.
    There was a problem downloading “Fun Run, Pts. 1 & 2 / The Office, Season 4 / The Office”. You >do not have enough access privileges for this operation.
    Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again.
    I do have a network connection, and can get logged into the itunes store. I have spent the past 45 minutes on the phone with Apple who had me check all of my permissions, and I have uninstalled/reinstalled itunes, but still the same thing.
    Anyone have any ideas on this?

    I have the same problem with my 1st gen Touch.  It started a few days ago when I and many other 1st gen users noticed that we could no longer download podcasts directly to our iPods, and after a day or two that seemed to be fixed, but now the app store is broken for us.  For me when I try to download an app I press the button and then the graphics for the button get all jumbled.  I can see it's there but the edges and letters are all mixed up and wierd looking.  It turns green like the download button, and when I push that it turns blue and then just sits there doing nothing.  I know this isn't a problem with updating my software because anyone who knows anything about earlier models knows that they stopped updating the iOS for them a long long time ago.  This is definitely a problem on Apples end where they've made some kind of changes to the app store that break it on earlier iPods (I saw another post from a 2nd gen user who is having the same problem).  I hope Apple fixes this soon.

  • I can no longer open pdf files in safari 6.02.

    SAFARI CAN'T OPEN PDF'S ?
    I can no longer open pdf files in safari 6.02.  It worked fine up until  2 weeks ago.  The pdf's open in Foxfire and Chrome browsers.
    I can also download the pdf and open in acrobat directly.  Safari only shows the file as ASCII characters.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste (command-V) into the text box that opens, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    I've seen an unconfirmed report that the "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you might need to remove it as well, if applicable.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Can no longer view pdf files in Safari

    Adobe viewer installed. Was working okay. Upon first "download" of pdf file, had pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application. Then pdf files were opened in Safari with Adobe Reader controls across the top of the Safari window.
    For no apparent reason, can no longer view pdf in Safari. The URL for the pdf file appears in the Safari URL, but the Safari window is blank. No pop-up window to locate Adobe Reader application during first "download" of pdf file. Safari Help --> Installed Plug-ins shows Adobe Reader for pdf. Can download pdf file by highlighting URL and then pressing Option-Return.
    Only change the previous day was update of Mac software which included a security upgrade and other software upgrades.

    Hi..
    Go to   /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    Move the AdobePDF browser plugin to the Trash.
    Try Safari.
    If you have problems locating the plugin...
    Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
    Type this exactly as you see it here:

  • How can I make MS Word create PDF's again? After cancelling Adobe cloud, Word can no longer make PDF's. Worked before I used Adobe Cloud.

    Hi. I can no longer create PDF's in MS Office. Before I installed and ran Adobe Cloud, this worked. Now, after cancelling Adobe Cloud, Adobe has also shut down the PDF feature that worked without problem before. Adobe now wants me to subscribe to make Acrobat work. No way. Worked before so it should not have been withdrawn. Can someone tell me what I now need to do to re-enable the PDF feature in MS Office? Never had a problem with it before. If this happens every time that I subscribe and unsubscribe, then Adobe need to pull their finger out and stop tampering with other programs.

    Depending on which version of MS Office you have the Microsoft Save As PDF option is either an add-on or a feature.
    If you are using MS Office 2007, then  it's the Add-on and you need to either run repair for it from the Add/Remove Control Panel or reinstall the add-on.
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7
    If this is a later version of MS Office (2010 or 2013) then the feature should be available and you should run repair from the Add/Remove control panel.
