I can't view a pdf file in Safari 5.1.7 (windows)

I'm using Safar 5.1.7 on a computer running Windows XP and I can't seem to open a pdf file. And I'm not able to get to the Safari extensions page - I get an error message that Safari can't establish a secure connection to the server "extensions.apple.com".  Would appreciate any help.

Hi..
Apple dropped support for Safari for Windows >  Apple apparently kills Windows PC support in Safari 6.0
Use IE or Chrome Browser

    How can I view a PDF file from my Ipad, both in email and Internet links? I only get the first page.

    Support for viewing PDFs in emails and web-pages is built in to the iPad. You need not have bought an app for that.
    There are PDF apps that provide more features than the built-in functionality, but for basic viewing of multi-page PDFs no app is required.

  • 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.

  • How to view aspx PDF files in Safari 4.0.3

    Hi,
    Using Safari 4.0.3 on os 10.5.8. I'm trying to view PDF files that are supposed to be viewed and editable within the browser (this is how the site works on a pc using internet explorer). When I click the relevant icon on the site, the site asks me if I'm sure I want to view that file (this is normal), and I click accept. Then Safari simply downloads the aspx file into the downloads folder. To the extent I could open the aspx manually using Reader (I can't), it wouldn't help anyway because the file is meant to be edited within a web browser, and within the pdf there are options to "save," "save and close," etc. I need to be able to open and view this file from within Safari.
    I have the latest Adobe reader and made sure the settings allowed for opening of PDFs from the internet.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks.

    I concur with Kirk Olson1's comment above, and have been unable to solve this 'til reading this post.
    Change the .aspx extension of a saved file to .pdf and presto, Preview opens the doc for reading without complaint. This may not solve the problem the user has with editing the file within their browser. But the .aspx file, without a doubt, is in fact a file of "some" sort that is readable by Preview. As to the properties of editing the file, I can't speak to that. Since I am using this to read and save my bank statement, I would hope that the ASPX file is a signed document that can't be edited without the change being detectable... otherwise, what purpose is served by introducing a new filename extension ASPX for PDF files???
    I've had the same "Browser can't view/open ASPX file" problem under Mac OS 10.5.* and Safari and Firefox. A bank provides me with "PDF" files (so they say) that download (to view, or file-save-as) with the .aspx filename extension. Firefox 3.5.* doesn't handle them. I've not downloaded Adobe products to my Mac and have avoided doing so because I don't want Adobe mucking with the way Preview works, etc.
    In an experiment, I am unable to coerce Preview to open a copy of the same file while it had the .aspx extension (via Ctrl-Click the aspx file, Open_With, Enable All Applications to Open). Preview just sits there without opening the file, no error dialog, and I don't see any telltale warnings in the console log either. The same file, with a filename extension changed, no problem opening and viewing.

  • 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?

    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.

  • Why can't I open pdf files with Safari 7.0.6 and OS 10.9.4?

    I have just upgraded to Mavericks from OS 10.6.8. When I attempt to open a pdf file in Safari, I get the following message:
    Abobe Reader
    Before viewing PDF documents in this browser you must launch Adobe Reader and accept the End User License Agreement, then Quit and relaunch the browser.
    Well, I must have already accepted the Agreement because I can open pdfs directly from Adobe Reader and from other browsers. Why doesn't can't I open them from Safari?
    Don

    Launch Adobe Reader from your Launch Pad. Then accept the end user license agreement.
    I found that suggestion here >   ADOBE - ACCEPT END USER LICENCE AGREEMENT

  • I am not able to view some PDF files in Safari

    When I try to view a link to a PDF file using Safari in Mavericks I am told to open Adobe Acrobat.  I do not have that and do not want to buy it.  If I use Firefox I can view the PDF.
    Here is an example of the message I get from Safari:

    You need to launch the Adobe Reader app from your Applications folder and accept the license agreement.
    The message is generic and refers to Acrobat or Reader as "Acrobat".
    You don't see that with Firefox because it has its own PDFJSViewer built in.

  • I can't view PDF files on Safari 5.1 for windows 7, how do I fix this?

    I like using Safari 5.1 for my web browser at work (I use a windows 7 machine). But the recent update won't let me view PDF files. I have to open up Google Chrome then copy and paste the address into it so I can view the PDF. How do I fix this?

    I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro 9.4.5
    There are no updates for this. Are you suggesting I unistall then reinstall this?

  • How can I view a pdf file without downloading it? It seems I can't get rid of the download option. Is it possible to do this without downloading the pdf and then viewing it?

  • Can no longer open PDF files in Safari 7 using Mavericks - help??

    I cannot open PDF files on my iMac - not sure why - I am using  Safari 7 & have downloaded Mavericks - it says I have to launch Acrobat 8 and agree to terms (or some such thing) Please help.  How do you make Reader 9 the default for opening pdf's?   Help?

    Back up all data before making any changes. Please take each of the following steps until the problem is resolved.
    Step 1
    If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, and the problem is just that you can't print or save PDF's displayed in Safari, you may be able to do so by moving the cursor to the the bottom edge of the page, somewhere near the middle. A black toolbar should appear under the cursor. Click the printer or disk icon.
    Step 2
    There should be a setting in its preferences of the Adobe application such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected.
    Step 3
    If you get a message such as ""Adobe Reader blocked for this website," then from the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
    and check the box marked
    Allow Plug-ins
    Then click
    Manage Website Settings...
    and make any required changes to the security settings for the Adobe PDF plugin.
    Step 4
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 into the text box that opens by pressing command-V, then press return.
    From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari.
    Step 5
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others—I don't have a complete list. Don't remove Silverlight if you use the "Netflix" video-streaming service.
    Step 6
    Do as in Step 4 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.

  • Why can I not open pdf files in Safari? All I get is a black screen.

    Suddenly Safari will not allow me to open pdf-files, and I have gathered from other discussions that it is a problem. I removed Adobe Reader, to see if Preview would kick in but it did not work. Any suggestions?
    Thankful for any ideas.

    Back up all data.
    Quit Safari. In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder... from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Copy the line of text below into the box that opens, and press return:
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    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 launch Safari and test.
    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.

  • Why can't I save pdf files in Safari 5.1.2

    Up to now it hasn't bothered me much, but today I wanted to download iBank 4 Quick Start Guide. When I clicked on the link for the guide, Safari went to a pdf page and displayed the first page of the pdf. When I selected "Save As" it gave me a name for the file and the download destination. When I said OK, I got this error: The document “iBank_4_Quick_Start.pdf” could not be exported as “iBank_4_Quick_Start”. This happens for every pdf page I try to download. I get an error every time. The only work around I've found has been to right click (control click) on the button that takes you to the pdf file and select "Save linked file to the desktop" Safari used to allow you do a "Save As" for all pdf's. Does anybody know how to fix this?

    Quit Safari.
    Open the Library folder in your home folder by holding down the option key and selecting Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar (Lion), or by selecting Go ▹ Go to Folder… and entering “~/Library” (without the quotes) in the text box that opens (pre-Lion.)
    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.
